Oh my goodness, love that it’s back to back. Such a sad song yet so beautifully done by Dimash. Oh I do say that Dimash has an angelic voice. Thank you so much John, love your reactions to Dimash & all the other artists around the world including my home country, Philippines.

[@janegreene2838]

In the second song you can tell Dimash's voice is healthy and not hurting. You will hear the things he had to eliminate in the first performance because he was saving his voice. I so appreciate your attentive reaction.

[@stefinyu]

YOU ARE THE BEST DIMASH REACTOR! I watch as many reactors as possible. You, however, reveal a special, authentic soul, emotional, informative and spot on. Thank you for letting us enjoy you and Dimash!

[@user-wz2my7tq1i]

In the Singer performance he was ill with fever and sore throat- he said his throat felt like broken glass while he was singing- and the doctor told him not to sing high notes, and of course he did anyway. The 2nd performance was only a few months later, but he was in good health then and his throat was not hurting. I love both, and thank you for reacting.

The second performance was just a couple of months after I believe. Both were from 2017 and that year was really busy for Dimash. Yes this was his sold out huge concert Bastau. Dimashs concerts are epic, there are some on his official KZbin channel including his 2019 New York concert in the Barclay Centre. Its there in 2 parts, there is also his Almaty concert in Kazakhstan in 3 parts from last September 2022 as well as a few other. You haven't seen the real Dimasn until you see him in concert. He is a Rockstar ❤

[@mylesastinnette6208]

Hi John, the 2nd song was held during his very first solo concert. He was 23 during that concert. His dad cried after the concert because he was so proud of his son. I love Dimash. Thank you.

[@lynnemartin2291]

Oh I’m so glad you did the 2 performances. He actually lost his voice completely on The Singer and only got it back after several jabs on his vocal cords. The singer performance was definitely good but subdued in comparison to that amazing 2nd act. The story is so tragic and Dimash’s voice carries the heartbroken little boy voice to a cry. It is a tradegy that he created a classic. You’ll be happy to know he has many more phenomenal creations. Great reviews 🤗🤗🤗🤗 don’t forget Ave Marie and now my mind blanks. 🤗🤗🤗😘 18:50

[@jennifergiacinto8210]

John, your reaction was so sincere and heartfelt. I'm glad that you found both versions together in one video including an in-depth explanation of what the song is about. I remember, when I was watching his performances on The Singer 2017, how much he struggled with his voice that week. I'm so glad that the doctor was able to get Dimash's incredible voice back just enough to be able to sing the song. His performance, though subdued (for his vocal prowess), was full of power and emotion. The doctor told him no high notes...of course, he didn't listen...hitting that G5 belt and other high notes. The Bastau version was Dimash at 100%. 😮 Daybreak is one of my favorite performances from Dimash. The contrast between The Singer and Bastau is incredible. Both versions are fantastic. It goes to show that, Dimash at 60% vocal ability is still better than everyone, wow.

[@janetlawson4482]

Thank you May for suggesting this, there was actually slight differences in the Singer competition than I had seen , mostly of the audience. Considering that Dimash could barely talk, he did an incredible job at The Singer performance, but it’s difficult to watch knowing how much pain he was in and how nerve wracking it had to be. The Bastau concert version takes away my heart, even the water falling behind him, I see the child sobbing, his clothes looked like something a little boy would wear, then the emotion, just heartbreaking and beautiful. Thank you John, I really appreciate your reactions, especially to Dimash 😅, you have a wonderful appreciation of Dimash and it’s very enjoyable, some reactor’s don’t feel sincere ❤.

[@deltadaze6836]

I also read somewhere that at the sight of the accident at that park, is a well-known fountain and the water here was supposed to mimic that....or maybe I'm dreaming :)🥰

[@LoveDimashali]

Oh, I am SOOOOOO glad that you saw this video where you saw the contrast between both performances. He actually performed this in the same year. The first one is at The Singer, the second is at his Bastau concert when he went back home from China early that year, and then in June, he did the Bastau concert. I truly think the difference is that, even though the performance at The Singer was exceptional, he didn't give it as much power as he wanted to because of his illness, but then performed it to the max at the Bastau concert. One thing: Dimash is not only loved because of his voice. He is loved so strongly and so fiercely by us Dears because of HIM. His soul, his passion, his humbleness, his goodness, his wisdom, his intelligence, and his loving generosity. If he didn't have all of those other components within him to inspire us, I really don't think so many people would be so enamored with him. I swear he's an Angel that was sent here to give us hope, bring us love, and guide us to be better people. I agree with James. When you do review Autumn Strong, and you SHOULD, search Dimash Autumn Strong with subtitles, then look for the one that says "Dimash translated:the true story behind Autumn Strong with English subtitles" posted by G Wu. I sobbed so hard the first time I saw that whole video because it set the story and it's so sad. PLEASE respond to that one! Always love your reactions to our beautiful Dimash, John! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@grace7952]

Hola 👋 John!! Gracias por la reacción, te diré que en Singer Dimash estaba muy dolorido de la garganta, y las caras de sús compañeros, era porque sabían que le podía perjudicar hacer ése esfuerzo,cualquier cantante lo sabe,más a esos rangos, y cuanto le estaría doliendo, éso me gusta de los compañeros, fueron muy amables con él, tanto así que dimash dijo que conoció a sú segundo padre,qué es Terry Lynn, un cantante famoso,qué tampoco era chino, y en el segundo video, puedes ver muy flaco a Dimash, salía de estar enfermo, y no quiso anular el concierto de Bastau. Un gran concierto, donde canta, Diva Dance cómo núnca, All By my self, y otros, y no te das cuenta. A el no le gusta fallar a sú público es muy responsable, muy humilde, sencillo, respetuoso, u gran ser humano mi querido, por eso lo amamos tanto,porque a pesar de ser el mejor del mundo, no cambió sú manera de ser, sús valores, principios, y él gran respeto y amor qué tiene a Dios, ya que vás a verlo muchas veces mirar al cielo,o señalar para arriba cuando termina sús grandes canciones. No hay duda es el mejor cantante y mejor voz del mundo 🌏!! Tendrían qué reconocerlo cómo lo qué es,pasa qué él se maneja con sú familia,no con ningún productor. Pero bueno los Dears apoyamos para que llegue a todo el mundo!! Desde Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 Dear Mónica, mil gracias!!! Saludos y bendiciones!!!

Loved your reaction (as always)! He definitely is very angelic. He is also angelic in 'Ave Maria' (rewritten by Igor Krutoy for Dimash) kzbin.info/www/bejne/o32qaZpopNR5iaM And 'Love Is Like a Dream' kzbin.info/www/bejne/rn2ogq2cprSSopI Someone also mentioned that you should do 'Autumn Strong' (and the back story for that). If you get around to that, do 'Ikanaide' (The Japanese version of the same song) back to back in the same reaction as 'Autumn Strong.' Both are stellar, though I prefer 'Ikanaide.'

How Dimash could get through that I An Singer performance when he was so I’ll is amazing! He said after that his voice felt like knives but it settled by the end of the song. The concert version is way after he had fully recovered. You can just hear the difference in how he delivered it feeling fully well.

[@tirallala1]

👉 Second: After returning from the Singer competition (2017, China), the Kazakh government was so impressed with Dimash's success that they sponsored Dimash's first solo concert entitled BASTAU. In preparation for the concert, Dimash worked so hard that he lost a lot of weight. His family was very concerned.... but the concert was great. It blows your mind!

[@MLGB0Yz]

@@gingw7333 you’ll obviously be judged lol. Jesus tells us to judge in John 7:24. The only reason any Muslim could appear to have some Christ like qualities is because Satan knows they’ll go to hell for being a Muslim and the reason supposed Christians don’t are because they aren’t real Christians, they profess Christ with their lips, but their hearts are far from Him. They know not what they do, Satan confuses them as well and tempts them more because Jesus is God and His words are the truth.

[@diarchos5019]

Same year, 2017, for both performances. What an incredible performance of Daybreak on The Singer despite having had injections to his throat that morning. The second performance (when Dimash was well) was at his Bastau concert - his first large scale solo concert in his homeland, welcomed home a hero by 30,000 of his countrymen and fans from around the world after his success on The Singer, and what an extraordinary performance! Heartbreaking. The Singer show is first class all the way. Nothing second tier with only the best in maestros, musicians, backup singers, directors, technicians and production teams all working to bring together the songs and performances of contestants to stage week after week. Can’t imagine the pressure and stress they experienced every episode. Loving your Dimash reactions🙏🏻🇦🇺

[@judithhopper1368]

I'm also thrilled that you love him so much. He's beyond amazing.

Have you noticed the crowd control guard right in front of Dimash in the Bastau performance? He was looking at Dimash. Carried away by the power of the voice at his back, he momentarily forgot his duty to fix his eyes to the crowd.

It’s hilarious watching him turn around to try and watch Dimash’s performance. He just couldn’t help himself. 😂

[@reneedevry4361]

This is only the second time seeing The Singer "Daybreak". The other contestants were truly worried about him His Doctor said no high notes for good reason. His career could have ended that very night. Was one of the dumber things Dimash has ever done. Proof that he is human. The second performance was the same year and was exceptionally executed. 💐💐💐🇨🇦

[@nicevinci_dear]

I’m so grateful and happy you reacted to both versions. I heard him say in an interview that it was very painful throughout the song, that his throat feels like shredded glass but he didn’t want to disappoint the people who stand behind him and so he pulled himself together and went on stage. He got 5 injections from this doctor in the hospital. And the doctor told him not to sing high notes. You can see how concerned the other competitors were and they suffered with him. They knew he was not doing well and one of them even gave him a very expensive Chinese medicine from his own inventory. The problem was his busy schedule between the performances and he didn’t have enough time to recover. He made very good friends there and many friendships still exist today. After the performance he lost his voice again. If you like you can see the whole issues with his soar throat in this link. Gloria Wu: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4mqd2qsnKqMgc0 However, the video has a dropout towards the end. So don’t panic. Nothing is broken😁 It’s unbelievable how he always manages to convey emotions to such a degree. Though I think in this one particular version the emotions he shows are mostly concern about his voice keeping up with the song and the pain he must have been in doing it. The version from his Bastau concert was in the same year 2017. This performance is phenomenal and mind-blowing. So emotional and heartbreaking. In both versions I always cry my eyes out. I don’t know why I have to cry more. Because of the story or the fact, that he was in such pain and performed anyway because he didn’t want to disappoint the audience. What I love about the Chinese competitors is that they don’t behave like competitors. Everyone wishes everyone luck. Everyone watches the other’s performance. Clap, sing along. In my opinion, no one begrudges the success of another. They might not have taken Dimash seriously at first, but that quickly changed after SOS. Through ist honest, cheerful and open nature, he found friends very quickly. Greetings and love from Germany👋❤️

[@hitomiochiai8787]

I love this song, and I love this performance (Singer) as painful as it looked for Dimash to sing. And I love the other contestants, you can see the concern in their eyes and the relief when he is finished. Also if you check the longer version of All By Myself, episode 9 of Singer, you'll see one of the Singers say, oh he looks much better this week (commenting on how Dimash looks as he goes on stage). I think the difference in time is about 3 months. Bastau is his first stadium concert. 40,000 people. I agree, I felt the Bastau performance of Daybreak was a reattach for what the Singer version should have sounded like. What this video didn't show you was the doctor told him not to sing high notes, then he amended by saying, sing as high as your comfortable to sing. His low notes were lower at Bastau and clearly his high notes were super clear and higher.

[@annnoyes6915]

Completely agree. The most beautiful voice! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Lizou007]

He made this last performance during his first solo concert Bastau in 2017, a few months after his participation in the program I'm a singer. Since he was very ill during his first performance of this song, he was not able to perform it as he wanted and did not want to worsen his condition and preserve his vocal cords to be able to continue the competition. During his performance at his concert, he gave everything to do justice to this magnificent song. If you haven't done so already, I suggest you react to some of his performances during this competition, you will realize that he had nothing to envy to the other participants, he surpassed them all. Thank you for making me relive these beautiful moments, I had not seen them for a long time. A DEAR from Canada🥰❤

Remember that Dimash was sick with his throat in that presentation of The Singer (February/2017) and that Bastau concert was in (June/2017). now fully recovered, without the pressure of the contest and with more time to prepare the song, since in The Singer he only had a week. Han Hong, is a well-known songwriter and singer in China. She was deeply moved by a serious cable car crash in 1999 that fell to the ground in Guizhou Province, China, with loss of life. One child survived and she adopted him, continuing the path of her parents who sacrificed themselves saving the life of her two-year-old son on that fateful day. She composed the song from the child's perspective in which she honored her parents for the sacrifice. Dimash picked up that story, which she had been listening to since she was a child, and dramatized it with her voice and her humanizing spirit. She here she left the dramatic lyrics of this beautiful song: DAYBREACK: Greetings from Panama.

I’m so glad you got to see both performances of this song. This song absolutely wrecks me. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve listened to it and seriously it’s still hard not to just sob. I love both performances but honestly the less polished Singer one is my favorite. I think there’s an element of raw pain in it that is literally coming from his physical pain that just makes the gut punch that much harder. Him fighting through the pain to sing a song that has to be the deepest most fundamentally painful yet still precious memory for that boy (precious because it’s the last memory of his parents and is one that is proof of how much he was loved). The Singer performance for me is more potent because of its imperfections. I love the second one too. It’s beautiful and I feel like it was cathartic for him to be able to sing it the way he wanted to. Fate gifted us both versions. This is one of my absolute favorites of the songs he does. I was looking forward to when you would get to this one and I was keeping my fingers crossed that you would watch both versions. Thank you!

[@debbiemorgan859]

The one thing they didn't show was how sick he was, which they do on the Gloria Wu version. He literally had no voice! The injections managed to give him a voice for the performance but it was gone again immediately after. The worried expressions on the faces of the other competitors was because they were so worried for him. One of them even bought him a Chinese medicine that is more expensive than gold. It speaks to his character when someone who is so far above you vocally is not envied or treated as a competitor but much loved by everyone and treated as a beloved little brother throughout the show.

I agree with you John there is a big difference,being sick didn't help but you have to give him credit for singing when he was so ill,he still sang amazingly,what a beautiful man he is. Great reaction John thanks for going so in depth with Dimash. You too are a lovely person...take care

[@lied1484]

I love this double reaction!! I hope you will do more doubles, like e.g. Autumn strong (Singer & Kiev concert). Your reactions and appreciation to/for Dimash is great to watch, He is the goat. ❤❤. His concerts are always freaking amazing and the very best. I will patiently wait for your reaction to Durduraz at his Almaty concert, one of my top favorites. Thanks John!

[@maykacha4987]

No, you are right. He wanted to give the song his best. He couldn’t give it his all on the Singer. I think it upset him. Glad you enjoyed it John 😊

[@janetlawson4482]

Are you the May that request’s Dimash? If you are, I want to say thank you ❤. John’s reactions to Dimash are really something that I look forward to ❤.

[@maykacha4987]

@@janetlawson4482 yes, that would be me. John is wonderful. I got hooked on some of his BTS reactions, then saw him do one Dimash. Decided to join his patreon and request more. I love his honesty. 😊

Хелло! выступление во франции.он в черном смокинге .белой рубашке. Стрижка вообще класс.

[@doityourownway]

You are lucky. Usually, other reactors got to react with either one of them or without the background story behind the song. They missed a lot.

[@dimashified]

Thank you so much for your wonderful reaction 👍😊

8:58 Dimash gives his all in EVERY performance, even while sick!

[@zgadgets]

Not only was he sick with needles in his neck but now he is learning Mandarin also. Have you see Olympico yet :)

C est faux c est sur sos d un terrien qu il était malade à première vidéo date du conc ours qui a durée plus d un an il était le plus jeune l autre vidéo est lors d un concert et il est plus vieux et a travaillé encore sa voix il suit toujours des cours pour s améliorer

[@cristaaun1605]

Fue su primer concierto! Se adelgazo tanto, por la preocupación de que todo saliera como él quería al grado de enfermar en esos momentos con temperatura muy alta! Y con todo y eso, cumplió con el público de todo el mundo. Así son sus conciertos!!! Él es un diamante, y virtuoso! Propiedad del 🌎 mundo!!!

[@brendaguerin5423]

Also he is relaxed not being judged and his throat was very bad before
