Tina Arena | Burn | 1997 ARIA Awards | Reaction

[@kane29842]

I'm sure multiple people requested this, but I know for sure I sent this one through. She sings in French, Italian and Spanish as well. This is my favourite of hers, that conviction you spoke of, when she gets that little snarl on, just slays me every time. ARIA is just pronounced like the word, it's the Australian Recording Industry Association. Their awards night is basically our version of the Grammys

[@ThatSingerReactions]

Haha yep thank you so much for this also and yeah you were the one who sent this amazing performance

[@DOTTYTIME]

Well I thank you for doing so

Tina is our legend, she’s a little person but her fearlessness and strength enormous

[@stevemeredith9022]

Tina also went to live in Paris and while there she learned the French language and recorded some albums in French and had success with this endeavour. She is a truly an amazing creative force that brings so much joy to her many fans. I have followed her musical career from when she was on Young Talent Time and she has never let her fans down .

Mate, She has Balls, Baby, her range is endless.. Amazing

It’s so good to rediscover the great music that we have had here in Australia through your eyes. These are great classics to us. It’s great to be going on this journey with you in Australian music and appreciate all over again

[@ThatSingerReactions]

You're welcome thank you for watching:)

[@briangill4000]

She is such a perfect performer because "Practice makes perfect" she was a child tv star at 7 yrs old! First as a contestant on "Young talent time" then was invited to be on the show as a regular member of the young talent team. Every week the team members would sing and dance and act.... Not a bad way to start a career spanning 50 years

[@DOTTYTIME]

I hope he reads this

[@dolfyn73]

@ThatSingerReactions Tina Arena is one of my favourite female singers. She's so amazingly talented! I've often sung along to her songs to do my own vocal warm-ups to sing.

[@dianmcconachie3293]

I remember this hitting the charts and bashed on the radio when i was like 6 and i LOVED it

[@charki40]

Aboriginal Aussie here and Ive loved Tina Arena since she was a kid. I grew up with her singing and what a mature, sassy and seasoned performer and singer. Im in Chains is my favourite song by Tina. She is so underrated.

[@gamortie]

She was in musical theatre in France of all places (not bad for a Maltese-Australian from suburban Moonee Ponds!), and has been awarded a knighthood of the French National Order Of Merit for her contribution to French culture

[@mssuziquzi]

I think her parents were Italian, from Sicily

Grew up watching Tina on Young Talent Time… had such a crush on her growing up. It’s ok, my wife knows 😄Still enjoy her music, album “Songs of Love & Loss” is one of my favourite. She grew up not far from where I grew up, and her parents immigrated from the same region in Italy as my Dad. Enjoy watching your reactions, and your appreciation for the talent we have down under. Keep up the good work you do…

[@pattiodors8296]

Yes. Tina, is a perfect precedent, as to exactly why, when "singers" approach me, insisting that they can "sing", I can never hand warm fuzzies over to you agreeing that you're a "singer". Because of her benchmark. No delusion. No nepotist helicopter parent telling their kid that they're a singer and I the teacher's assistant having to be compliant to the bullshit. No tyre kicker. Because she IS actually one. A true singer. A bonafide singer. A real singer. Bang on the note, everytime. Light, shade, power notes, whispery oooohs and ahhhhhs, crescendos, and no doubt that the talented singer IS one. Woman too. Just a REAL singer. A REAL AUSTRALIAN SINGER. Like John Farnham. The real deal.

Tina was raised during the times when public schools were heavy into musical and singing education and instruction. Kids were given regular lessons in how to play instruments, and vocal performances. We were big on dance too. Le sigh Of course she's got great breath control. It's a big country. You learn to project your voice instead of shouting, and this takes breath control 🇦🇺👍🏿

[@suzannejane1035]

Tina Arena is one of my idols but so underrated. Burn is fab, thanks. I'm from Scotland still in the UK, unfortunately, and that's just to give you a sense of her fans worldwide.

Wow, that's all needed to be said

[@rodneyhoffman9873]

Yes one of Australia's best singers, performing on TV since the age of 6 and yes she has performed in musicals both in Australia and London's West End. She was amazing in Evita as Eva Peron. There is a live version of her singing Dont Cry for me Argentina with a huge choir. Proof she is a musical theatre star. She also moved to France for some time not knowing the language but is now fluent and has released several french albums much like celine. Listen to "Aller plus haut". Also look out for her version of The Prayer

[@joelpaule2072]

Watch Tina hold her own with Donna Summer, singing No More Tears (Enough Is Enough).

[@amandakitteh4842]

Love Tina so much! 💕✨ Us Aussies don't see much of her these days.. I think she moved to Italy? 💕💕 I remember watching her when I was about 4 years old on Young Talent Time. YTT was like the Mickey Mouse Club but the Aussie version... And oh boy was it Aussie 🇦🇺😆 (mullets a plenty). I soooooo wanted to grow up to be like Tina! I'm guessing she would have been about 10 when she started? We’d just got a colour TV 🤣. Totally doxxing mine and her ages here.. But Omg she's my childhood hero! (and probably why I'm a vocalist/ songwriter in a band today). Side note.. I also wanted to be Danni Minogue.. I even died my hair like hers when I was 15 haha. She is Kylie Minogues much more famous (at the time) sister!! 💕

[@carokat1111]

She lived in Paris for quite a while I believe.

[@magpiegirl3783]

She is living back in Oz now. Not sure of her personal situation with partner and son, but she’s been back here for a few years now. Tremendously successful in Europe where her extraordinary vocals were lauded.

The first time Tina performed in Europe, the event was being hosted by Princess Stephanie of Monaco. Once Tina had finished singing, Princess Stephanie walked onto the stage and told the audience that they had just witnessed the birth of a diva. Of course she was right.

She was even awarded a Knighthood of the French National Order of National Merit for her contribution to French culture! Impressive lady!

Her voice is really cool. I can tell that it sits in a lower place then people like Delta Goodrem and Vanessa Amorosi, she can do lower notes that are very strong compared to them, now that there’s aren’t strong but hers are lower and stronger. And she could sing very high but not quite as high as them. She has a very very wide range, I’m not sure it’s wider than theirs but very wide, but it could be[Just not as high] but it sits at a lower place.

I've been a fan of Tina since she was 7 and made her debut on YTT. She got better and better with age but had a lot of trouble getting taken seriously over the years. Right now she's pissed off (and rightly so) that all the music tours are being cancelled due to covid yet sports are allowed to go ahead. I would kill to get my hands on one of those old Ollie's Trolley portraits with Tina in the uniform... what a honey! My favorite video is *Now I Can Dance*
