Great reaction, you really felt it. I will post in a separate commentmore details on Lara, her background, career and gow influential she is on the new generation or vocalist (Dimash being her fan number one) I hope you will react to more of her songs, this is a journey that everybody enjoys. I would recommend to listen the minute after the end of the song if the video has it, because it takes time for her to resurface and it shows how deep she was in her emotions.

[@McDevittMike]

This is one of the most powerful, beautiful performances I've ever seen. Lara is a spectacular performer. 😎

[@matthewrandom4523]

If you want to know how much her fans love her you should watch and listen to "Je t'aime" live in Paris 2001.

[@phaedree2657]

What a beautiful reaction. Thank you for mentioning how cathartic the song is, most don't mention it :)

[@abc456f]

Someone already mentioned this but you needed to watch till the very end. She's so emotionally invested in the performance that she's literally shaking. This may be the greatest live performance ever recorded. Her ability to convey and evoke emotion is second to none. Lara is the ultimate artist.

[@brasilguy74]

Thank you for reacting to Lara , and yes, you should react to many of her masterpieces. And make sure that you react to her live performances. You won’t regret it. Her live performances are genuinely soul-touching, and she should be studied by anybody striving to be an Exquisite Singer, performer, singer-songwriter, and so on. Last but not least, she is a beautiful human being and a role model for a new generation of artists, such as Dimash and others. Thanks again! #LaraFabian 💛💚💙🇧🇷

[@ericsicard910]

More info about Lara Fabian: Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Lisa Fischer, .... In my personal opinion, she is even the best. There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 8,000 attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register. So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence: • she speaks 4 languages fluently (french, italian, english, spanish) and has sung in 12 languages in total • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for most her songs, in the 4 languages she speaks. She often co-composes the music with the composer. • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none • she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens A quick background on her and her career: She is belgian, but also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia). She was raised in both countries so she speaks both french and italian as native languages. She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory. She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada. She now lives in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship She became very famous there and then conquered France in 1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music). in 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, reached number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart and number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US. This concert is legendary and the song you just reviewed is from this concert. But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan. She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar thru her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace" used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera topped the charts for months. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban, … With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there. Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA is now rediscovering her. She is Dimash's idol: I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep. He covered many of her songs (that she performed originally ; she also wrote some of these) Out of my mind I can list: • Adagio, • Mademoiselle Hyde, • Know, • Love of tired swans, She also wrote the lyrics of his song « Your Love ». She covered « Love is like a dream » before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva) And they performed Ti Amo Cosi together with Aida Garafulina. This is a song that she performed originally with Dmitriy Hvorostovsky and Alina Yaroyava then again later with Dmitriy and Sumi Jo, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy who came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs: • Floor Jansen (Adagio) • Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime) • Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie) • Morissette Amon (Broken Vow) • Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace) • Cakra Khan (Broken Vow) • Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow) • Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade) • .... Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara. If you explore more of her songs, you will soon be hooked, I'm sure.

Oh how i agree with everything that you say !! but i add she isby far the best female singer on the planet !!!

[@ericsicard910]

@@anitajansen2 lara est belge oui, de mère Sicilienne, oui. Mais le reste est incorrect. La mère de Lara, Maria Luisa dite Luisa, et ses frères sont nés en Sicilie, à Catane, où sa grand-mere a toujours vécu. Les frères ont effectivement émigré en Belgique mais pas la mère de Lara initialement. Un jour, Fabiano, un des oncles de Lara, celui dont elle s’est inspirée pour son nom dd scène, a demandé à son meilleur ami Pierre Crokaert d’aller chercher sa soeur, qui venait le visiter, à la gare car il ne pouvait y aller lui-même. Ce fut le coup de foudre immédiat entre Pierre et Luisa 😀 Luisa s’est donc aussi établie en Belgique mais après la naissance de Lara, Luisa a amené Lara en Sicilie pour ses 7 premières années avant de revenir en Nelgique définitivement. C’est pour cela que l’italien est la première langue maternelle de Lara, avant même le français. Ce parcours c’est Lara qui l’a décrit dans plusieurs interviews.

Yes you're right! I watched to the end now and it was very cool to see her in the aftermath of that emotional outpouring. Just so present and real!

Great reaction. Thanks. Catharsis, good point too.

[@Andrea-sq7ch]

Great comments... Lara is a very special signer/person. Love her and hope you will react to more of her songs such as Adagio, Caruso, Broken Vows and perhaps you could also look at her 2001 performance of "Je t'aime" in Paris.... She was personally going through a rough time, she had just lost a close friend so the audience...... Well you will see.... I do not want to spoil the reaction. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@sisselfan]

Can I make a request for a song? Have you heard of the Norwegian singer Sissel Kyrkjebø? She is the national treasure of Norway and has a unbelievable voice. Her voice can also be heard in the 1997 Titanic movie. Could you react to her performing "You'll Never Walk Alone"? kzbin.info/www/bejne/rae1ioKCrJqKfac

[@francoisst-aubin432]

Hello Barnaby, nice réaction. Thank you. All songs from this concert (from Lara with love, live from Montreal 1999) are masterpieces and you cannot go wrong wich ever you chose! Just subscribed and will follow you on your Lara’s journey !! Cheers from Montreal.

[@wtsalive8210]

I never been touched so deeply from a song and interpretation like this! 1st I heard this song without subtitles and knowledge of French. Already then it touched my heart so deeply. She doesn’t sing this song, she performs the song! The performance started before the first tone and ended not with the last tone. She was ”IN the song and motions“. Watch the video until the end.

[@ivark2264]

Wow! I never saw anything like this ❤️

[@csmycia]

💙 I've loved your two reactions to Lara. She's a goddess! I'd like to suggest a pair of performances that are another example of connecting and conveying emotions: Rosalía's "Me quedo contigo" (at Goya awards) and "De plata (directo Sevilla)” (live from Seville). Have a good day! Greetings from Spain. 💙🇪🇸

[@kotoal]

A rollercoaster 👍 I recommand "Broken Vow", "you're not from here", "Adagio", "Caruso" 😉

Welcome to the rabbit hole of Lara Fabian!! Thanks for reacting to this wonderful artist!

I rarely comment but I make an exception. You found new points and appreciated right things. I have seen dozens of LF reactions so I know. On top of that, I am a 45 year old gay man so I know the quality when I see it. I liked your reaction and analysis. I know this song very well. Greetings from Finland.

[@frankethomas1248]

It's too bad your screen resolution was improperly adjusted, so that we were unable to really see the English lyrics, but other than that, I liked your reaction. I was relieved when you said you weren't a vocal coach, because in my experience they don’t have good reactions. They may have sound analyses, objective dissection is different than subjective reaction, isn't it? Anyway, thank you for sharing this with us!

[@ekaterinauskova9843]

Amaizing reaction. Thanks a lot for Lara. ❤

[@RobertDeMartin]

Is there any wonder why Dimash was drawn to Lara? He wanted to see and understand how Lara was able to channel her emotion into what she sings. He learned well, didn't he! This performance was from around the turn of the Century when Dimash was only a kid.They remain good friends to this day. Btw, you should have played the video to it's end. It took Lara a while to get out of the song.

[@ricardocoesel4706]

For someone who's never heard of her, it's pretty impressive that you pronounced her name the "proper" way 😅 And also that you pronounced "Je suis malade" correctly - do you know French? Good analysis from an artistic point of view. One thing, though: never ever cut off before the end. If you had played it till the very end, you would've seen that she stayed in character even while the audience gave her a standing ovation. That was significant!

I feel like she's doing an intimidating warrior dance like a haka without moving much, intensitywise.

I'm so glad you reacted like you did, more importantly at the end when you are speaking about Catharsis! The thing is, that, Lara lives by this simple philosophy, that happiness has to come with pain and sorrow/sadness and that the means of just living the pain and accepting it, you end up grown up and mentally healthier and happier! In everything she does, she brings this philosophy of catharsis that is so important for her! In every step of her life, Catharsis has healed her so much and at so many times! She lings to it to be happier! As we would say today, it's her kind of therapy of living and enjoying life! If you want to react to something that compares Lara to Dimash so well in how they act & play, I recommend you to react to her song "Mademoiselle Hyde" and just after her singing, react at the same time to Dimash's version in the same reaction video! In Dimash's version, he change the lyrics for when Lara was singing Mademoiselle Hyde, for him, sing Mister Hyde instead, and vice versa when she sing Mister Hyde at the end, he sing Mademoiselle Hyde!

This has to be one of the greatest performances of all time, but another such performance is Dimash singing one of Lara Fabian’s songs, Adagio kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5LUY2eFndB1iKc (from The Singer 2017 show). That performance from Dimash also has to go down as one of THE greatest performances by any artist of ALL time. I would love to see your reaction to that performance! It’s incredible and Lara called Dimash to congratulate him after that epic performance of her song! Lara has since performed with Dimash, a song called Ti Amo Cosi kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpK0d5mneJifpLc (another amazing artist Aida Garifullina, completes this amazing trio performance) It was a dream come true for Dimash to perform with his idol, Lara Fabian!
