EVEN HER WHISPER IS POWERFUL! Lara Fabian - Je Suis Malade (Reaction)

[@robertgieseler1220]

Wow, let's take a deep breath after THAT... Incredible. Goosebumps all over my body, a rollercoaster of emotions and close to tears throughout most of this song. Well, "song" -- what an affront -- masterpiece, I'd rather say... Great reaction, Maddy. Love, all the way from Germany

[@jakesmith5278]

After all these years, Lara Fabian is still the best performer on the planet. Truly a unique legend.

[@ericsicard910]

More information on 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 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She 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 fluently. 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, her father is flemish, but also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( her grandfather is from Detroit). She was raised in sicilia first then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french 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 1996/1997 (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, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row 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 Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance. 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 and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), … 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 and many other countries are 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, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara. Out of my mind I can list: ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version) ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know") She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love". And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva). Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara. Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration: ○ 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), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio) ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular. On April and May 2023 she had again a wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, and in Ouzbekhistan and Kazakhstan. Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.

[@L0C0vision]

Thank you! This is amazing. I only found her about 4 years ago through vocal coach reactions and I’m addicted to finding new reactors hear her for the first time. I knew some of what you outlined, but I had no clue about Sony and Celine. It bothers me when reactors compare her mixed voice with Celine because they aren’t comparing the sound, it’s the pronunciation and vowel modification inherent to native French speakers. Not only was Lara robbed, but so were all the people living in the US listening to the Titanic song ad nauseum. There was room for Lara on the charts!!!

[@ericsicard910]

@@L0C0vision there is a documentary describing what happened to Lara in the US: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqqlZ6mOecmNeLs And yes, there is no comparison between the full rich velvety voice of Lara and the nasal frontally placed voice of Celine, especially in the upper register.

[@janpcs]

@@L0C0vision Canadian French sounds a lot different from the French French, especially the spoken versions. When sung it imight be less noticable. The first time I heard Canadian French was Lucille Star I suppose with Quand le soleil dit bonjour aux montagnes.

[@ericsicard910]

“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973. This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …). When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and compose the music in a couple of hours. The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes. Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad. But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s. At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version. She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during is own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone. Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on. The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3m2qp5qiKynq7s is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella. Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaqsfZeIdrSGbpo

[@TheToscanaMan]

Yes Maddy... Lara is a performer not just a singer. I have been listening (crying) to her for years. Please do more of her when you can. Nice reaction.

[@MaddyReactions]

🤍

[@GregoriousGregori9]

As you watch you at the start you can see she's literally being transported into the song & is living every word she sings.... Then at the end when the audience is cheering you actually see her re-enter her body & come back slightly shocked realizing oh right I'm not alone here then the moment in the song where the lyrics speak of her pouring her blood into her lover & she symbolically slits her own throat with her thumb..so powerful... thank you for discovering sharing & enjoying this .. I would also suggest her version of the song Caruso to react to

[@tolun99]

Great reaction. This performance of Lara is one of my favorites of all time by any artist.

[@craigramsay53]

Been a fan of Lara for well over 25 years and have been fortunate to see her perform in Montréal three times. She is the Queen of the chanson genre!

[@guittadabe5214]

There's a reason why Lara is one of Dimash's idols while growing up, and why she inspired so many other upcoming artists. Nobody can make you FEEL emotion like Lara can. Believe it or not, this was a cover. And it would take a lot of courage to cover a song after Lara sings it! Dimash did cover several of her songs (not shocking!), including Adagio, Mademoiselle Hyde, Love is like a dream, etc. Despite that Lara is close to the end of her multi-decades career, he sang with her several duets. As you dig deep into this amazing artist, make sure you select her live performances. She absolutely kills in those, which is very unusual as most other artists sound better once the studio has "fixed" their performance!

[@spirossofianossisko]

Όμορφη Maddy. Καλώς ήρθες στον κόσμο τής θεάς τής ερμηνείας της μουσικής και τής καρδιάς μας. Η Λάρα είναι η φωνή από άλλον πλανήτη όπως την αποκάλεσαν μεγάλοι μουσικοί στήν Αμερική. Συνέχισε νά είσαι μαζί της καί μαζί μας. Η αντίδραση σου ήταν υπέροχη.❤

FYI: LARA (not Laura) Fabian (Fabyanne) with links: Lara Fabian is a Canadian (Québécoise) of Belgium birth and Italian/Franco/Flemish cultural heritage. Lara studied piano, composition, and voice at a Brussels Conservatory for a decade. Lara is a full lyric soprano with a vocal range that spans four octaves (A5, B4, BB4, C3, C5, C#5, D5, E5, EB5, F5, F#5, G5) in live performances. She is multilingual; she speaks Italian, French, Spanish, and English and has sung in 12. Lara, who describes herself as a songwriter/singer, creates a high emotional connection with the listener. She has a discography of over 400 songs, has sold over 30 million records, and plays at sold-out venues worldwide. She lives with her husband and daughter in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. A “50 at 50” - fifty live performances celebrating her 50th birthday had to be cancelled due to COVID-19 and was rescheduled as “The Best of Lara.” I’m a ‘fan’ because of her high level ‘EQ’ (emotional intelligence) expressed in the text of her songs. La raison pour laquelle je suis un « fan » de Lara Fabian est son « QE » élevé, qu’elle exprime dans le texte de ses chansons. A Few examples - Voici quelques exemples : Persévérance/perseverance : “Par Amour” (écrit/written par Lara) m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJvVhZdui8qDbJY Maladie/disease : d’Alzheimer : « L’Oubli” (écrit/written par Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaDFXpRqqbWBmck Suicide : “Par que tu pars » (écrit/written par by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHTGcpVpirVol6M LGBTQ : “La difference’ (écrit/written par by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6jOhnmohdWKpNk « Deux ils - deux elles » (écrit/written par by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/emWanYmPhLiBrdE Violence à l’égard des femmes V. against women) : “Llora” (écrit/translated par Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnfLZGh8pNRseaM Amitié (friendship) : “Ma vie dans la tienne » (écrit/written par Lara) m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ7XaqOblr-aeas ENGLISH “Broken Vow” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXuleHZ_bcaGe5Y “Adagio” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKLShGCBhLGJlZY “You're Not From Here” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKebiXmOgL2Fgqs “I am who I Am” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKrNdnVvnK9_o68 “Love by Grace’ kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqCyo515bZ2tgZo “Mademoiselle Hyde’ (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqa2dZegipmGbq8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYHZenawoNyVprM « Tomorrow is a lie” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6OpqqmwiZqNm6M “Growing Wings” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqmnmZeLm7Csgqc « I will love again” kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnPak3d_bJxkkLs « Extrait de Yentl » cover of Barbara Streisand kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKjVg2x8msdjock « I am a WA” kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3fJYmWJn7-leq8 “I guess I loved you” kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2KWq5tpobaIa7c « Angel » kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYu0ZHaQi9SCe5I “No Big Deal” kzbin.info/www/bejne/mX6XqaSljb6ho7s « No Show’ kzbin.info/www/bejne/opDPi2mBp75qqck FRENCH “Je suis malade” de/by Serge Lama : kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3m2qp5qiKynq7s « je t’aime’ (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3OuY2qDl8t-nac “La difference’ (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6jOhnmohdWKpNk « Deux iles - deux elles : (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaDFXpRqqbWBmck “Par que tu pars » (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHTGcpVpirVol6M “Si tu m'aimes’ (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmiYYadpnZeljc0 « Immortelle (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6rVg2anhNKBZpY « Tango” (written by Lara) “m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6GUhqWBr76nn5I “Ma vie dans la tienne » (written by Lara) m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ7XaqOblr-aeas “Par Amour” (written by Lara) m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJvVhZdui8qDbJY “Papillon (Butterfly) written by Lara kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqu6mqeVosqpgZI “J’taime encore (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3q0pphvotqJhac “Tout’ (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/nV7UlH-XbteFiZI « L’Oubli” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaDFXpRqqbWBmck “Llora” (written by Lara) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnfLZGh8pNRseaM ITALIAN “Caruso” kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIGVfKGCmtKHbZo “Perdere L'amore” kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5TQmXacfZ6CnLM « La Traviata’ kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ_RdqyQgayBY6c RUSSIAN « Lebedy » kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGjHd6qGeNqtbbc “Love is like a Dream” kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJbMkp5vp7Bgp8U DUOS « Requiem pour un fou » avec/with Johnny Hallyday : kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnnaenlsn9KCebs “The Prayer’ with Michael Bolton kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5DCZ4N8eZaMe9k “For Always” with Josh Groban kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZKbpXVqrN6th5Y “ The love of Tired Swans” Dimash, Lara: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnuuoImCpJqogLc « Ti Amo Cosi” Dimash, Lara, Aida: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpK0d5mneJifpLc « Know” Dimash, Lara: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKTLfHqhqth0pNE LARA’s voice quality (1997-2022) singing CARUSO : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmnClmSNmc58qqc

Es imposible no emocionarse con esta interpretación A parte del *dominio* que tiene de su voz..la actitud, esa interpretación Ya desde el principio ,la postura antes de cantar la primera nota...algo grandioso va a suceder

[@moniquebouchard3724]

Lara didn't write this song but certainly looks and sounds like she feels it to her very soul. I recommend you check out Broken Vow, a song she co-wrote after experiencing a terrible betrayal. She performed it in the same concert as Je Suis Malade. It's heartbreaking.

[@anju9665]

„You are not from here“ live is an amazing song by her.

[@jean-loupdesbordes4833]

Serge Lama wrote this song in 1973 . And the dramatic strenght comes from "Like when my mother went out one evening And she left me alone with my despair" It rings a bell in anybody's human mind. Yes it firstly was written by a man for a man.

[@victorbradshaw7359]

So cute wanting to let everyone see the subtitles

Haha 💖

[@brahimtlili9816]

Hi Maddy beautiful Lady, After SOS , Je suis malade so welcome to french songs and thanks for your émotions, Kiss from Paris.

[@katherineeasteal662]

A sensitive reaction to Lara Fabian's renowned cover of Je Suis Malade. Thanks. She has a lovely voice to go with her famed interpretation skills. Another excellent cover of this challenging song is Forestella's. You should see how a male South Korean male quartet interprets this song and brings some audience members (and some reactors) to tears. A brilliant crossover group, with harmonies to die for.

[@ronaldpampanini]

Hi Maddy, Thanks for introducing me to Lara Fabian. She is an awesome performer with a beautiful voice. Check out some other songs like Broken Vow, Caruso, Pedere L'amore

[@MaddyReactions]

She’s great

[@bannoutbaby8019]

She's in a league of her own! Pure Talent!

[@ericzeichert511]

The Bee Gees started a joke that had the whole world laughing. Lara stared a lament that had the whole world bawling.

[@ronpam48]

Love your channel Maddy. Lara is truly a fantastic vocalist and performer. It's too sad promoters in the USA overlooked her talent. Please check out Perdere L'Amore, Par Amour, Parqe Que Tu Pars, and You're Not From Here.

[@sket179]

"...and you can too!" I got shopping TV vibes from that 😂

[@timothyjohnart]

Glorious

[@Nefos-j]

Song named "Caruso" from Lara in the same live performance

[@mickaeltacy]

Beautiful reaction

[@annemendes6319]

Thanks for the reaction. You should try "Broken vow" from the same concert. It' amazing too

[@leemichel8199]

She stays in character even after the song ,a true artist

[@michaelgombkoto6941]

Nice reaction - and it's nice when the youth discovers good music.

[@terrydavis2887]

Ty for this. One of the best singers, song writers of our time!

[@MaddyReactions]

So true

[@vincemore-wq9ts]

hello lara fabian sing 12 differente language french ,italian,spanish,english,rusian more incredible emotional honnesty

[@DeadBird-wp9of]

Avec Le Temps by Léo Ferré (also sung Celine Dionne a good version). I was in love with a woman for 35 years that looked like Lara, but she was married and I stayed away (still know what love is and give in to resignation - you can't have it).

[@alaintoutant4646]

Lara is an outstanding performer who always sings with full emotions. You should have a look at her "Je t'aime" performance in Paris when the audience did something fantastic for her. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4rRd6qLl6hsd5o

[@MaddyReactions]

So amazing!

[@ronda.8624]

I would like you to react to a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro. She is a very versatile singer who sings different musical styles with a very particular voice and incredible melismas. She always transmits when she sings. This time I would like you to react to one of her songs called "El perdón" official video clip. It will surprise you. Regards

[@claude-emiliecloutier8186]

New subscriber! Loved your reaction. Next song from Lara should be Broken vow, she wrote it!

[@halosandheroes]

I've said it before and I mean it this song to me is the closing monologue before the embittered actor or actress throws themself from the bridge or unalize themselves. This is the absolute heart wrenching conclusion to unrequited feelings

[@pamscarr8696]

Dimash had a crush on her beginning at around age 12. He thinks she is a fabulous singer

She is amazing and can’t stop watching her❤. Pls react to je t aime live in Paris. It will blow your mind cause you have never seen anything like this…

[@ВодападРека]

Super!!!!!!!!!!

[@DavidTateVA]

Translating "Que tu t'en fous" as "That you don't care" is... not quite right. "That you don't give a fuck" is more accurate. This is one of the great live performances of my lifetime.

[@Mickael_]

You're right, but unfortunately, if you put that in the subtitles, YT will block the video. 🥺

[@manuelparralorisco4580]

[@Royal_BLT]

🇨🇦 Read below the comments by Eric Sicard ! He will tell you all about the song (which she did not write) and how her performance of it is probably the best ever ! He will tell you all about Lara as an artist and he will tell you about her music ! This journey has just begun . . .

[@51Dss]

When I read the words in English here is the thought I have - "this is pretty poison. Her words are sick - she is obsessive, possessive, desperate. These are the very words that come from the mouth of a pathologically, psychologically sick person. But I I say - very pretty in melody and voice in the French. If any woman said those things to me I would run from her like my hair was on fire. I would rightfully be fearful of her stalking me. People who obsess like that are very dangerous to others as well as to themselves.

[@NEURO-yh8to]

After Je t'aime (emotional ver) and You're Not From Here, watch Lara's mini movie MV compilation she did with Igor Krutoy called Mademoiselle Zhivago (51 mins I think) here on KZbin. A great choice of artist alongside Mylène Farmer. Ty 🇬🇧 🇨🇭

[@talgat123]

👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍🇰🇿

[@dougmacdonald3678]

We meet again, Miss Never Had Braces 😏. Yes, ma'am, Lara is incredible. The voice, the expression, emotion, and intensity is just crazy good. Can't help but seeing Lara as an older version of Emma Kok after watching her Voi la performance. Awful lot of similarities there.

[@franciscogamboavaquero4839]

[@PBWaWa]

She is the real beast live. Her performances from the same concert as this song are insane! "Adagio" --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKLShGCBhLGJlZY "You're not from here" --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKebiXmOgL2Fgqs "Perdere l'Amore" in Italian --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5TQmXacfZ6CnLM "Caruso" --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIGVfKGCmtKHbZo "Quédate" in Spanish --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYmTdIOad7tqa6c

You shoukld react to "l'enfer" from Stromae with subtitles too, I'm pretty sure you'll love it

[@justinchristoph3725]

Recommendation: Ghost Love Score by Nightwish. The Wacken 2013 version is the best and it's on youtube. Floor Jansen will blow your mind.

[@Adelaida-zi8zw]

Hi, she did not write the song, The song was composed by Serge Lama and Alice Done during the 80s.

[@Mickael_]

It was in 1973 to be precise 😉
