Now talk about an ICON! Lara Fabian is definitely "under-rated". You'd be surprised how many people haven't heard of her or if they have, they haven't "listened" to her. They might hear it now & then, but really listened! She's amazing! For any singer/actor/actress/person.....life goals!!!! ❤🥰❤🥰

[@garionth]

As i said in the live. Top 10 vocalist around today.

Yes, she is very popular in France. I paste the comment made by Menggarey Arktiks beneath video of her song "Je t'aime' kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4rRd6qLl6hsd5o '...they change the 'Je' which means 'I' to 'On' which means 'We'. From I love you to We love you.'

[@phildeval]

I had the privilege to see Lara's live twice. My favourite singer...

[@DoggieFosters]

I am truly envious. I only discovered her about 15 months ago with her jaw-dropping Je Suis Malade performance. And down the rabbit hole I went, never to return.

[@StormWolf01]

Johnny Hallyday died of cancer, 3 years ago. He was a legendary french rock singer. He started singing around 1960 and kept performing until a 3 month before his death in december 2017. He is considered the last legendary french singer. As you would expect from a man who had a career of 57 years, at the top.

[@saintgirl]

I love watching your Lara Fabian reaction videos!!

[@jessicasopranonotes]

Thank you!

J'adore vos analyses des chansons françaises, mademoiselle. continuez s'il vous plait

[@cytek8426]

Wonderful duo! Johnny is the greatest French artist of all time and the King of rock in Europe! His death shocked the whole country by bringing together millions of people, 10 months after his death a posthumous album was released, recorded before his departure, this album has the world record for the number of sales made in 3 days for a posthumous album (almost 800,000 sales in 3 days)

[@yvesbresson7837]

Best analysis of this ever... thank you from france

[@rallumonslefeu3451]

What is so cool about this performance is that Hallyday was notorious for his ability to enact this type of songs with deep, strong meaning in the lyrics. And obviously that night we found that Lara Fabian was able to do the same, act it out and keep up with the same intensity. You've really got to be a French native to realize how intense the lyrics are. I remember listening to the 1976 original release with a friend of mine and his sister, who ended up in tears at the very end of the song...

[@jessicasopranonotes]

Oh wow, what a cool experience! And you're absolutely right, Ms. Fabian kept up with the intensity of the song like a pro!

[@chongtak]

Thank you KZbin to have suggested me this video. A beautiful opera singer commenting on a popular French song, It's all good.

She is the Top Female vocaliste in the world, major star in Europe, speaks fluently 4 languages, (Italian, French, English, Spanish) also Russian and Portugese. More than 30millions album sold world wide and almost unknown in the USA, i will let others explain her story, she is now 53 yo and just finished a world Tour in 2022. You now have the Lara-virus, no vaccin, no medication,she sings from her soul to yours....

[@brigittebos6384]

Lara Fabian is a performer singer. She live her songs. If you watch her performance singing Adagio, Broken vow (both written by her), je suis malade, you are not from Her.... You will see how with her voice, her body and soul she project the émotions. She is amazing, je suis malade(with English subtitle) is a perfect exemple of what she is able to do. I'm sure you will become fan after having watched her performances. Don't forget her songs Mademoiselle Hyde, Llora, Perdere l'amore, her way of singing Caruso. I hope you will react soon.

[@associationles7voiles35]

Merci d'avoir choisi une version live. C'est plus intéressant les one shot, surtout avec de telles conditions: extérieur, pluie, stade plein, grand orchestre... Chanteur, rockeur, Johnny Hallyday, dit : le taulier, à traversé 6 décennies en s'entourant des auteurs/compositeurs tendances du moment. Ici, Lara est son invitée et, comme pour tous ses invités, il les test. Si tu arrives à le suivre c'est bien, et tu reviendras peut être à d'autres occasions (comme l’interprète Florent Pagny), si tu ne suis pas tant pis, mais il ne te laissera pas le dernier mot. C'est toujours un duo et souvent un duel. Vous avez choisi ma version préféré de "Requiem pour un Fou". Thank you for choosing a live version. It's more interesting the one shot, especially with such conditions: outside, rain, full stadium, large orchestra ... Singer, rocker, Johnny Hallyday, says: the taubind, has gone through 6 decades by surrounding himself with the trendy songwriters / composers of the moment. Here, Lara is his guest and, like all his guests, he tests them. If you manage to follow him that's good, and you may come back on other occasions (like the interpreter Florent Pagny), if you're not too bad, but he won't let you have the last word. It's always a duo and often a duel. You have chosen my favorite version of "Requiem pour un Fou".

[@Diphenol92]

Oh yeaaah I'm SO happy that you react to this one !! So you don't really know the "background" so to say, of these both singers. They are (and were for Johnny as he passed a few years ago, such a disaster in France really) so very famous and popular in the French countries (France, Belgium, Canada for Lara as she lives there since the start of her career). They really are "monsters" of their time, very good performers and this show omg.... they just blow everything !!! So much intensity, power in their gestures, in their looks. Almost in "trance" giving it all for this show (you saw how they interact between them, so close, very sensual). They were amazing, and Lara was quite young !! Johnny had more experience but they both give such an incredible performance!! You saw it with your own eyes (and ears), they DELIVER!! You really should react to more Lara, you'll be amazed by her talent, her technic. Dimash is inspired by her, ADAGIO (if you didn't, check the one from Dimash) is an original from Lara and you have to listen to it !! As apparently suggested, you indeed must react to "Je suis Malade", very famous song (original from Serge Lama, covered by Dalida (such an icon also here) and then covered and really captured to make her own by Lara). You can also check "Je t'aime" and so many more !! Loved your reaction !! Continue comme ça, tu fais un super travail !! =)

[@franciscojavierp.7162]

Wow, I had missed this video without commenting... we must find a solution. Mr. Hallyday's voice is really particular, very striking, there are few singers with such a raspy voice. As for Lara... what can I say, for me she is perfection when it comes to singing, or rather, interpreting, because, although she has a wonderful voice, her staging surpasses all that. Next fall I will go to see her in a concert, and I hope they record it on video so I can listen to it in detail, because at that moment I will not be able to do anything else but delight myself with her way of narrating the stories of her songs. Thank you so much Jessica for all the work you do, which has helped many of us to discover the details of many artists. A big hug

[@lutdesimpelaere2947]

She’s considered one of the best singers in the world right now and is admired by Dimash. She has been collaborating with Igor Krutoy, who’s composing many of Dimash’s songs , for many years. If you want to see passion, Je suis malade is a the song to react to. Also, the beginning sounds like a requiem, which is a death march/ piece, so fitting since this song is about a crime of passion, literally.

[@manukeo5498]

No , but she's a good singer 👍

This was one of 5 duets Jonny sang during his Stade de France 1998 concert in November 1998 after the FIFA World Cup - the 4 LP release is spectacular as is the DVD. Jonny is a rock and roll artist, who is very well know in the French speaking world.

[@bricejrk]

This is actually from a concert and it is Johnny Hallyday's song! You should definitely check out more of Lara Fabian's performances. She is truly one of the greatest voices out there and it is beautifully complimented by her outstanding storytelling abilities. By the way, I love your videos and how naturally you react to the voices you hear. Wishing you the best

Your musical preparation and your way of expressing yourself during the explanations are magnificent. Very attentive to general musical thought, but also to details. Congratulations!!!

[@jldo9529]

You mentioned the song "je suis malade", in which Lara Fabian shows all her artistic sensitivity. But the song in which she shows her incredible vocal capacity, which puts her in the forefront of singers, is 'adagio'. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHzXf6iCfJqdd9E

[@angiebby1122]

Both beautiful songs, definitely agree.

[@juliedurocher2554]

I would also suggest You're not from here.

[@tekmepikcha6830]

If Opera Singer reacts to Lara's 'Adagio', she might as well do a double reaction and react to Dimash's version as well. The comparison will be great for analytics

[@kiki-vg5zc]

@@juliedurocher2554 Caruso is a must too :)

[@jpc7118]

I would put her numerous performances about Caruso and Je suis malade above the ones of Adagio... But as it's about songs, as the technique she has is constant, it's purely subjective choice to decide which one is her best one :)

[@caraa-cl]

Elle est magnifique cette chanson !

[@jeremie2020]

Thank you for the reaction ;). Lara Fabian could have been a superstar worldwide (and in the USA in particular), she confessed recently in Canada where she lives, the reason why she didn't make it in the USA. At the time, she and Céline Dion had the same music company (Sony), Céline was already a star in America, when Lara had just arrived. Lara revealed that Céline Dion's team (not Céline herself) did everything to sink her/sabotage her career as Lara had the whole package to also become an immense star in America, and worldwide. The music company didn't want another huge voice to compete with Céline's, and instead of supporting her, of supporting her style of music/songs (such as 'Love by Grace'), Lara was forced to leave it for another company and forced to change her professional team. As a result, it was all over, the other company formated Lara to make her sing pop songs such as "I will love again", a style of music/songs for which Lara and her stunning voice weren't made for, they also wanted her to lose 20 kilos and asked her to go blond. Such a waste, as she should be as famous and successful as Céline or Mariah Carey today. Having said that, she has a lot of respect & admiration for Céline Dion, and is very happy with her great career. Her idol remains Barbara Streisand. (Funny anectote here about her : kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6bGYYtpdrtrnNk ) / Please react to "Caruso", or "Adagio". ;)

[@JHlegende]

I would like to point out that during rehearsals Johnny Hallyday would have asked Lara Fabian to sing I would like to point out that during rehearsals Johnny Hallyday would have asked Lara Fabian to sing with all her power, he wanted her to shine because she was his guest. Confirmation from Lara Fabian herself this morning January 25, 2024 on the French channel “TF1” in the show “Bonjour la matinale” This is why Johnny Hallyday is below vocally. It was intentional on his part. Johnny Hallyday was very generous. Also note those who do not know or know very little about this singer Johnny Hallyday, he could easily rise very high too. Very big vocal power too. I wanted to provide a clarification that I had already known for a long time but now with proof for those who belittle or who do not know this great performer. I'll let you judge for yourself by listening to a few albums in their entirety: "Rivière Ouvre ton lit" from 69, "Flagrant délit" from 71, "Insolitudes" from 73, “Derrière l'amour” from 76 “Hallyday 84 Nashville en direct” "Rock'n'roll attitude" from 85, "Gang" from 86, "Cadillac" from 89, "Ça ne chanhe pas un homme" from 91, “Ce que je sais” from 98, “Sang pour sang” from 99, “A la vie à la mort” from 2002, “Ma vérité” from 2005, “L'attente” from 2012, “Rester vivant” from 2014, his last posthumous album “Mon pays c'est l'amour” from 2018. And so many other magnificent albums.. etccccc Je tiens à préciser que lors des répétitions Johnny Hallyday aurait demandé à Lara Fabian de chanter avec toute sa puissance, il souhaitait qu'elle brille car elle était son invitée. Confirmation de Lara Fabian elle-même ce matin 25 janvier 2024 sur la chaîne française "TF1"dans l'émission "Bonjour la matinale" C'est pour cela que Johnny Hallyday est en dessous vocalement. C'était volontaire de sa part. Johnny Hallyday s'est montré très généreux.. Sachez également ceux qui ne connaissent pas ou très peu ce chanteur Johnny Hallyday, il pouvait facilement monter très haut lui aussi. Très grosse puissance vocale également. Je voulais apporter une précision que je connaissais déjà depuis longtemps mais maintenant avec preuve pour ceux qui rabaissent ou qui ne connaissent pas ce grand interprète. Je vous laisse en juger par vous-même en écoutant quelques albums en intégralité: "Rivière Ouvre ton lit" de 69, "Flagrant délit" du 71, "Insolitudes" de 73, "Derrière l'amour" de 76 "Hallyday 84 Nashville en direct" "Rock'n'roll attitude" de 85, "Gang" de 86, "Cadillac" de 89, "Ça ne chanhe pas un homme" de 91, "Ce que je sais" de 98, "Sang pour sang" de 99, "A la vie à la mort" de 2002, "Ma vérité" de 2005, "L'attente" de 2012, "Rester vivant" de 2014, son dernier album posthume "Mon pays c'est l'amour" de 2018. Et tant d'autres albums magnifiques.. etccccc

[@Mr_K0ala84]

Bonjour, j'ai beaucoup aimé votre réaction. Johnny Hallyday et Lara Fabian sont tout les deux belge. Johnny Hallyday était le plus célèbre chanteur francophone de rock avec 57 ans de carrière, il était également acteur et compositeur. Je vous propose de découvrir certaines de ses chansons: (il y a malheureusement pas de sous-titre pour les versions live) " Vivre pour le meilleur" (parc des princes 2003 pour la version live) "Allumer le feu" (Live Stade de France 1998) Ou voir le concert "100% Johnny Live à la tour Eiffel en intégralité.

Good morning. First of all, thank you for your reactions, I watch them often and I appreciate them very much. (especially those on Mr. Dimash :) ). To answer your question, this video does not come from a film but from a concert in a large stadium in Paris. I was lucky to be present that day. The "star" was Johnny, "le Grand Johnny", the idol of the French. Lara Fabian was still a young singer, she had been invited by Johnny to do this duet. Thanks again for your interesting feedback!

[@johnsears2465]

You have found the Queen. You can pick anything from her From Lara with Love concert and be astonished. You will see why she is Dimash's idol. By the way, I have watched hundreds of reactions to various artists, this is one of the very best.

[@norahalworflee7021]

It is really strange I don't know if you know that Dimash idolized the one and only the greatest Diva our precious Lara Fabian and together they share the song and she co-writes one for the king, so it is nice to see the connection. Maybe you will do more reaction to her songs and definitely the song that they share together as a trio Lara, Dimash, and lovely Aiad next, please.

[@elizabethwhite1068]

Fantastic reaction! I love that this is the first Lara performance you're doing because her rock side doesn't get much attention in reaction videos, quel dommage. She is quite literally everything. Multi-genre, multi-lingual, song writer, singer, composer, actor, dancer, and all around phenomenal human being. She gets into my soul like no other, and the melodies she writes are the most beautiful and complex, without being showy, that I have ever heard. I look forward to seeing you discover more of Lara's vast repertoire! And she's still writing and performing to this day!

[@Platycqb]

Good thing you like intensity. Lara and Johnny are (were) known for leaving everything on stage. Lara is a master at getting into the songs she’s singing. Whether it’s a sensual song, a romantic ballad, you name it. She gets into it, almost at a physical level, and she connects with her audience. Hope you’ll get to watch some of her concerts available on KZbin. Probably mentioned in other comments but Lara has been trained to lyrical singing since she’s been a kid. She has a great technique for a “common” (as in not a dedicated opera singer) artist.

[@shuriken4852]

Johnny Hallyday is basically the French Elvis. Another interesting song to watch, if you haven't done so already, would be Evanescence's Lacrymosa from the Synthesis show, which includes parts of Mozart's Requiem piece with a modern take.

[@lori.sabrina]

You discover Johnny Hallyday. I understand you have not travel to France. He died in 2017 but was for 50 years the most famous french singer. And recognised by other singers as the "boss". He used to make performances and great shows in stadiums. His biggest audience was half a million under the Tour Eiffel for the national day on july the 14th. And he used to invite in his shows some friend singers. That explains Lara Fabian's presence. I like the analysis you made from "Je suis malade" by Lara, which i have seen previously. Love from France

My favourite Johnny's song is "Laura" ( written for his daughter , the actress Laura Smet). Johnny Halliday is considered " the french Elvis Presley" for his contribution to french rock songs

[@guittadabe5214]

Lara Fabian is the queen of emotion, of ACTING THE LYRICS. She immerses herself in the story, and transports the audience into it with her. "Je Suis Malade' is simply a stunning example of that. "Caruso" has also been covered so many times, but Lara's version is the one that reflects the actual story the best, and after hearing that version, it's tough to listen to any other! Here's "Je Suis Malade" with English subtitles for your audience: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mofZnaCmpJqab80

Good discoveries. Take care of you.

It's a song by Johnny Hallyday from the magnificent album "Derrière l'amour" from 1976. When Johnny sings this song alone in concert he puts on more intensity. Here on this duet less because he would have asked that we lower his microphone to make Lara shine. Johnny in all his generosity...

i m french lille north of france jhonny is a legend en france merci beaucoup aurevoir peace and love usa!!!

[@blueisback3683]

First I have heard of Johnny Hallyday, knew of Lara Fabian from her singing with Dimash of course. Loved this duet, so intense, or should I say trio because Jess was just as intense LOL

[@jessicasopranonotes]

haha I was so into it!

[@philippeaggnn9629]

Thank you for reaching into the performance and bringing out so much for us to understand. The dramatic context for the whole rhythmic suspense you explain so well is given in the French language Wikipedia page for "Requiem pour un fou" (basically, a man who killed his wife, surrounded by police and dogs, facing the crowd as the day breaks and he's not about to surrender). I'd love to see your reaction to Lara Fabian signing "Tango mi amor" live (kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHbFZ6KlbL5jZs0) - an astonishing vocal/stage performance with the intensity you found here (in French, with subtitles).

[@tompham637]

Yes, it’s from a movie. This movie was a classic French cinema of the 40s. Great 👍 reaction. Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳.

[@sabalight2558]

Which movie ? I knew only this song before as he sang it alone in his repertoire.

[@ninozancocchia442]

Your analysis are brilliant.

[@williamfilion15]

Ok, this is probably the best reaction video I have seen from this performance! Your analyses are so authentic! Please consider reacting to “Adagio”, “Broken Vow” and “You Are Not From Here” from the “From Lara with Love” concert! (N.B. My grandmother was an opera singer as well and she was also very passionate about giving good advices on other performances) 🥰

[@jessicasopranonotes]

Oh thank you! And so cool to have an opera singer in the family!

[@B.B.Digital_Forest]

'Un Requiem Pour un Fou' was one of the great 'power ballads' (or 'murder ballad) of the 1970s. They don't write songs like that anymore.

[@tekmepikcha6830]

Please do 'Je suis malade' by Lara Fabian. It's a master class in vocal expression!

[@danieldeldaniel3919]

I agree

[@yveskyjaan590]

RIP JOHNNY

[@micheltibon6552]

Amazing, one of the most intense duets I have seen.

[@SidneyZurhytt]

I really enjoy the way your thought process is, I mean, you’re so eloquent and well educated in that matter, congratulations on your music perception and also on your very specific and analytical mind! We’d be great friends!!! ☺️

R.I.P Legendary Johnny Hallyday

[@franciscouderq1100]

You are extremely articulate and catching up a lot as the song goes on. Personally I am not at all a Johnny fan but Lara is such a story singer and bang on emotionally and technically that it gives this duo a A ++. May be you should go on investigating Lara other live performances such as Caruso, Dis moi pourquoi je l’aime, Je t’aime, etc. Thanks for posting

[@jessicasopranonotes]

Thanks Francis! And I have je suis malade as the next reaction for Fabian

[@janhendriktromp7723]

Lara mind blown

[@DoggieFosters]

Can't wait to see your analysis of her jaw-dropping performance of Je Suis Malade from the live From Lara With Love concert. It was my gateway drug to her work. Astonishing. Known for her sterling technique + otherworldly performance craft, she calls herself a songwriter with a voice: fluent and writes in French, Italian, English and Spanish. 👍🏽

[@brigidafurlan6694]

Jhonny sabia o que estava fazendo quando convidou Lara pra cantar com ele, Ela é phenomenaaaaaal, olhem só no que deu, Showww Espetáculaaar, magnificoooooo 😍🥰👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉👏

[@dirkvoorspoels6203]

Grandiose, incomparable!!! ... All other Hallyday duets with other world stars such as Celine Dion disappear into nothing compared to Hallyday's duet with Lara Faban.. A Broadway performance

[@lawrencemendez2778]

YAAAAAS it was so goood and what an amazing analysis! Lara is a breath control b e a s t. Someone else mentioned it in comments but Adagio / j.s malade are really good too. Mini suggestion - Sara bareilles' live version of Saint Honesty is amazing (she finally got the grammy she deserves.) Have a looksie if youd like! Keep up the wonderful work :D 🌈

[@jamjam1312]

It wasn't from a movie but the story is a bit like Bonnie and Clyde's story. Two lovers, out of law, who prefer to die together than being separated when they get caught.. Johnny Halliday died a few years ago, he was a big star in France. He has a unique voice. Lara is great too. She can sing in many languages. "Je t'aime" is one of her most famous songs.

[@nightroadnroll4406]

Johnny Hallyday had a spécial voice ; very interesting to listen him . Try the title " l'envie " in live for example .....

[@Fafa-dd9lb]

Très bonne analyse...

[@mattchan720]

Please react to more Lara! Her belting and emotional delivery is just immaculate. Every time I hear her sing especially during climaxes I literally involuntarily holds my breath until she’s done? It is THAT good. Another amazing live performances she did was Adagio(from her concert From Lara with Love)

[@mattchan720]

And funny 6:09 you mentioned Dimash, Lara is actually a big inspiration to him and they have done some performances together too

[@mhoerold]

Great reaction

[@garylife5320]

Brilliant Analysis! Je Suis Malade will completely bowl you over! Thank you! Hugs from SC!

[@donald1379]

wow just amazing....

[@bindak]

Wow! This was amazing. Immediately went and bought it on iTunes 😍 Love your reactions!

[@MsMarienoire]

They are so into it.... Their body langage just kill me Every Times... what a performance.... Really sad that he isn't with us anymore....

[@yannrousseau4442]

Pour moi les concerts de Johnny ont été parmis les plus grandiose du monde A classer avec ceux de Michael et de queen de véritables shows monstrueux

[@DoggieFosters]

Love your love of music and singing. Looking forward to you discovering more of the technical and performance wonder that is Fabian. The performance of her cover of Je Suis Malade from the live From Lara With Love concert is best and has an English & French subtitled video here on KZbin. For that song, especially, I'd say paying attention to the lyrics to understand her 101 performance choices is important. She is fluent and writes songs in French, Italian, English and Spanish. 🖖🏾

[@DoggieFosters]

Ps. If someone recs a Fabian song and it was in the From Lara With Love concert, that's almost always the best version to go with. Adagio, Je Suis Malade, Caruso, You're Not From Here (an extremely difficult song she keeps sounding easy and gentle: would love to understand it better) and Broken Vow being the big candidates.

Johnny is a french legend
