This is a unique version with four men playing or using the piano to create their music. The piano is used in a way which I have never seen before. This is from The Piano Guys.

The Piano Guys and Craig Aven: The Sweetest Gift
If you’re missing someone this Christmas this song’s dedicated to you - ...
Jon Schmidt dedicates to those missing someone this Christmas. I am missing my oldest sister, who passed away two years ago New Years Eve. She was the life of our family, and kept things going. There is still a void that hasn't been filled. We visited the Buff clan for Christmas a few years ago. tony made a snow man, Camberly met her great-grandmother who was staying with them at the time. Sara, like my mother, had a way to make things right.
Lyrics: I’m not going to lie. Christmas really hurts this time Cause you’re not here to celebrate with me. Tears fill my eyes. And memories flood my mind, As I place your ornament upon our tree. Although this year I have a broken heart, It gives me hope and joy as I remember where you are. Chorus: You’re with the Son of God. You’re with the Prince of Peace. You’re with the one we’re celebrating And that thought amazes me. Sometimes I still break down, Grieving that we’re apart, But the sweetest gift is knowing where you are. You’re with the Son of God. Got your picture in a frame And a stocking with your name. Oh God knows it’s been hard letting go. And I can’t bring you back, But I’ll see you again. And oh, that thought is healing to my soul. I’ll miss making angels with you in the snow. I guess instead you will be singing with them All around God’s throne.
Chorus
And I know the Christmas season
Was your favorite time of year.
You loved to help us decorate our tree.
But now that you’re with Jesus,
I can’t imagine how you feel
Cause He’s the one who bled and died
Upon the tree for you and me.
Chorus

Christmas Carols: O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
Please see The Carols We Love: The "Story Behind the Story of Twenty-two Classic Christmas Carols, Daniel Partner, Barbour Publishing, Uhrichsville, OH, 2002.
The Piano Guys have a very nice version of this song. This song was first written in Latin in about 1200. It was sung in monasteries for vespers as part of advent. It has five verses, but each verse calling the Lord by a different name, imploring him to come. The names are: Emmanuel (God with us), our Wisdom from on high, Our Lord of might, Rod of Jesse's stem, Key of David, Dayspring from on high and Desire of nations. In using these different names, it points to different aspects of the Savior, who is God, who gives wisdom and shows the way, who is the descendent of Jesse and David, and holds the key to the kingdom of God, he chases the darkness away, and we yearn to come onto Him.
