Vocal Coach REACTS -Dan Vasc 'Angels We Have Heard On High' (metal version)

[@josiahrobinson6135]

Added note - he's had ten years of formal vocal lessons, so he knows how to care for his voice. The posture (tension) is just for show, for "more power so we can have ourselves an EPIC day!" Plus Dan is totally into physical fitness.

[@nataliemorton5568]

Great comment! Agree Completely! Merry Christmas and Let's Have A Most Epic New Year with Dan Vasc's Power Music! 🎅🤶🌲👼❣

[@Friesian-q6u]

I watched a video of him exercising and wow, not a bunch of expensive machines, just Dan.

[@terririchards6064]

The posture is "just for show"??

[@josiahrobinson6135]

I explained myself in my original comment. Also, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast this morning. You expect me to remember what I was thinking when I wrote a months old comment?😂😂😂😉😉😉

[@josiahrobinson6135]

Italiano, German, português, and English are the languages. Sixty tracks of Dan form the choir. Excellent reaction!

[@kimmalone2302]

And at this point I believe he was still doing all mixing and arrangements and the filming

[@josiahrobinson6135]

He always does this stuff.🙄😏

[@calebleach7988]

and Latin, of course.

[@josiahrobinson6135]

The chorus is always sung in Latin by whomever sings it because that's how the song is written. Yes, nitpicky, I know, but you caught me when I'm in a nitpicky mood. Sorry.🙈 It's just been one of those days again.😕😉

[@Friesian-q6u]

Thank you for that bit of knowledge. I was wondering. Now I really know he is that gifted and talented even more that I thought originally ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@joettamcqueen1954]

Glorious!!! Dan arranges his metal covers, and nothing he does or sings is by accident. Did you notice how much of that powerful ending was all one breath? It was truly amazing!

[@rhondaavasalu7249]

He's not just a "pretty face" as they say.... Glorious indeed!

[@Friesian-q6u]

Yes, truly amazing. I hope people watching and listening realize this. Not an easy feat.

[@annezzell6792]

Cannot possibly get better than one of my favorite reactors reacting to one of my favorite Dan Vasc songs! ❤ Edited to add: WE care what you think. That's why we watch your videos.

[@deniseduncan7363]

Italian, German, Portuguese and English with the chorus in Latin😊😮 Love his passion and power.❤

[@janettetippetts7942]

Dan always gives his other singers credit in the video descrlptions. If he doesn't mention anyone else singing then it's just all him layered. You should listen to him do quite a respectful rendition of the Halelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah!!! He IS the whole choir singing it! His Dan choir is all in little boxes singing it.

[@derekpetersen7571]

Dan Vasc has a new one out 20 hrs ago and it s a must trust me your chin will be on the floor O holy night wow!!!!

[@susansouthard]

Thank you so much for this great reaction! Dan has spoken about how he takes care of his voice. He warms up his voice the day before, sings the song, the next day he doesn't talk, to rest his voice.

[@TheAnnestube]

It must be such a pleasure for a vocal expert like you to watch and analyze a guy like Dan with the voice he has. About the tension, what i see is yes, he uses tension in his body to carry the power through to his voice, but when you then watch his vocal apparatus where it really matters, espacially the muscles in the throatarea, the larynx and jaws, there is very very rarely any tension no matter what he's doing with his voice, even though it's evident that he is actually singing, and not just lipsynching. And as you say, Dan is not in trouble at all putting this kind of power out - he takes extremely good care of his voice and knows exactly what he's doing. And yes, pretty much everything he does gesturewise is for show, due to the fact that he's a performer as much as he's a singer.

[@azurenojito2251]

We all love Dan and wish him the best.

[@lindatucker5441]

Ken- you hit it on the head when you described this presentation as triumphant! I have listened to it often and it always invigorates me. Thanks for your learned comments on the performance.

[@kristinabassi4215]

Dan Vasc is very physical to the delight of his fans 😍. His voice is work, talent and a lot of hard work. Over 10 years of vocal training. The result can be heard. Thanks for your great reaction. I would love to see more of this ❤️🤘🎄

[@JoanFrayer-kh6ez]

Dan is glorious. He can sing anything and yes he arranges,sings it all, and produces his songs. He is amazing.

[@jamiem4941]

So good! I don’t even know how many times I have watched him sing this. He is just mesmerizing! Great request, great reaction!

[@majhaludek3852]

His latest is O holy night. Phenomenal.

[@HelmaOsmond]

Thanks for another great reaction. My favourite Dan Christmas song is Adeste Fideles, maybe you can check that one out too? And he has promised us a new one before Christmas this year.

[@kimmalone2302]

I drive from coastal MS to Vegas twice a year to see my son and his family (really my grandchildren 😂) and this summer after hearing this version i FELT these verses driving through the mountains and had to Bluetooth this song 50 times and belt it out as i drove thru the plains and mountains!! At full volume lol

[@KathleenJ]

Oh that sounds awesome.

[@auntiethetical]

Yes, the chorus is all Dan. I believe the order is Italian, German, Portuguese, and English. He found these to be the main languages spoken by his fans. 👍

[@vanialucia7447]

Dan.. Daniel Vasconcelos is from Brazil. Your father is from Italy.

[@Uhohohno319]

He said that picked Italian, German, Portuguese, and English because that’s what most of his fans speak.

[@margijohnson5728]

Nevermind the fact that he learned Japanese 😳🤯😃😉

[@mitzimolby5137]

5 languages in this. Latin as well

[@gerardojosehoyo3210]

Tremendo Dan !!!!!! Artista en todas las facetas !!!!!

[@emanuelamarchetti9862]

Yes 64 Dan

[@carmelitanobre8737]

Magic Dan Vasc is simply amazing. What a great performance! What a phenomenal voice ! What an outstanding version of this song! Christmas time gets so joyful with Dan's music. Epicness.

[@lisalaursen3684]

Dan turns everything he touches to gold! 🌟🔥🔥

[@suepoole8323]

Dan speaks Brazilian Portuguese, which is the official language of Brazil.. I always enjoy your reactions and the knowledge you share with us all... I will have to sit this one out at church now, because all I can hear is Dan's version... Happy Christmas from UK

[@doninis1354]

I think this is one of my favorits from Dan Vask! Goosebums, everytime

[@karenm5681]

Victor the Guitar Nerd takes care of any instrumental arrangements, mixing, etc specifically for the instruments that he’s playing, but the rest is Dan unless otherwise credited. All his most recent videos, he’s hired a professional to do the final polish of mixing or mastering or whatever for sound quality.

[@Miss.Mikee22]

I believe Gabriel (friend and band ate from Fearless does the guitar work on this song. He was actually in 2022 Christmas video and I hope he is in this year’s video also.

[@Miss.Mikee22]

*bandmate

[@karenm5681]

Yes, absolutely correct. It’s Gabriel here in this song, not Victor. I should have been more clear in communicating my thought. I was just talking about the songs that Victor works on. (When Victor works on a song I think he’s always shown in the video as the “headless guitar player.”🤣)

[@RoGuimaraes]

New cover Christmas 2023 is coming, tks ❤❤

[@susanblauss1530]

❤ Dan

[@Lydelith]

It is always a pleasure to see you watching Dan Vasc sing! Dan is aware of the risks you mentioned.

[@karenm5681]

4:40 Good guess! The chorus in the background is 60 stacked tracks, not 100, but Dan sung every one of them too.

[@rhondaavasalu7249]

A OK indeed! Glorious

[@emanuelamarchetti9862]

All him this time

[@umarae27]

You made my day! Now do Dan's Adeste Fideles. 😇

[@victoriadaversa6808]

😂😂😂

[@djnozland]

Yes! And yes again! Dan’s rendition of Angels We Have Heard on High just empowers me! I love the respect, honor and power Dan’s covers of christian songs command. Whenever I want to thoroughly enjoy a Dan Vasc cover, I know I will find it here. ❤ I believe the language sequence is Italian, German, Portuguese and ends with English. Triumphant and majestic, yes! You provided perfect adjectives. Dan has shared how mindful he is to care for his voice so I’m steadfastly banishing any thoughts of harm! As always, enjoyed your reaction and commentary tremendously! Thank you 😊

[@beverlywarren4287]

He has a well tuned diaphragm which allows him to finish the ending in one breath. Breathing through your diaphragm allows one to do the long breath parts.

[@linhager12]

❤❤❤❤❤ He is Fantastic He has had over 7,000 new subscribers since the first of December

[@KathleenJ]

I'm one of those.😊

[@linhager12]

@KathleenJ welcome... hope you will enjoy all of Dan's wonderful arrangements... He is very respectful of the original recording, of the songs he covers... but manages to make them Better... 😁👍❤️

[@dianalindenmeyer4847]

Dans new Christmas song is out! It'll melt your face! 😂❤

[@RandyJanee]

About your comment towards the end, I’m also a singer myself and I’ve seen a few videos of Dan singing when he’s not in “performance mode”. In all of those videos, he was totally relaxed and there was no tension whatsoever. What he’s doing in his main videos is mainly for performance and I think he’s concentrating on grounding his breath support to the floor. Sometimes I’ll do a similar thing once in a while when I’m performing, but it’s particularly when my adrenaline gets going and I need extra breath support. I’m also a big stickler when it comes to technique and I take extremely good care of my voice.

[@YaaLFH]

Dan is not just a singer, he's a performer. His whole body is his instrument, not just his voice. He takes very good care of both.

[@christylundgren696]

I love his emotions, facial expressions and what you call body tension. Gives me chills.

[@YaaLFH]

I don't think you have to worry about the tension, Dan knows very well how to protect his voice and the triumphant pose is just part of the visuals of the song.

[@terezastastna941]

❤

[@Pammie1221]

Dan just makes every season perfect! I wonder if he's going to launch his new Christmas song on Christmas Eve? The suspense is working my nerves. Lol Great critique and reaction, Ken. ❤

[@kellymarks5480]

Starts in Italian, goes into German and then Brazilian Portugese, finishing in English.

[@margot.J]

A great reactiom to agreat singer and artist ! Dan with his powerful voice is simply incredible ! 😊

[@debbierobbins360]

I always get so excited when I see a new Dan reaction by Ken!!! I always love hearing your knowledgeable takes on Dan. I've been a subscriber since the first reaction I saw of yours. Keep up the great work and have a very merry Christmas!

[@umarae27]

Same for me!

[@lynnlourance5464]

Me too!

[@marciaolson4878]

I think he’s acting the part! He’s so wonderful. I’m not too concerned bc he’s very laid back on fun vids! Not to worry!❤❤❤❤

[@carolburnett190]

Dan has done a great deal of vocal training, so don’t worry too much. Even in relaxed videos, his posture is outstanding; I think it’s mostly just his natural stance.

[@claudiaozores7595]

I never tire of watching Dan's performance, yet another of several incredibly constructed ones. Thanks Ken and Merry Christmas 🎄

[@soniamaria-fn7cd]

Hey Ken, Bravíssimo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Dan was phenomenal, powerful!!! He's amazing in any genre of music and sang with great intensity, passion and power !!! I loved this version. It was really glorius ✨️ Thank you for sharing this excellent job by Dan Vasc ;)

[@rjross1087]

Nothing like a Dan cover to make a merry Christmas. I love what he does with this song. Thanks for another knowledgeable reaction! I don't think (fingers crossed) that we need to worry about Dan's posture. Did you know that he used to give voice lessons himself? I think he's very self-aware on that score. BYW, he's meticulous about giving credit to anyone who works with him - a relic of his days as an exploited and uncredited session singer, I suspect. From the description on this video: "Drum, bass, electric guitar arrangements, orchestration, mixing and mastering by yours truly. Electric guitars recorded by Gabriel Belozi. Gran finale drum improvisation by Giovanni Rezende. My gratitude to David Foster and Andrea Bocelli for the inspiration."" (Gabriel is the guitarist of Dan's band Fearless, and Gio is the drummer. The fourth member is Dan's brother Davi on bass. They're all terrific musicians. I think you reacted to their epic (😊) performance of "Dawn of Victory," with Fabio Leone, in Dan's garage. All the vocal arrangements are always his, and you're right, he often lets certain accompanists create their own parts. Looking forward to more Dan in 2024! Best wishes for a safe and happy holiday season.

[@teresamerkel7161]

Wonderful reaction. I too would hate for him to hurt his voice. I do trust he knows how to protect it as he has spoken about that quite a bit.

[@pamelariker5525]

Just amazing. Thank you for your reaction.

[@chrisboyd1408]

Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas!

[@LHeyden-o6i]

‘The FIST of Dan Vasc’…… majestic & triumphant.👊 I LOVE IT!!!👏👏👏👏 Thank you Ken for bringing more & more Dan Vasc and for teaching us things that those of us who aren’t vocal coaches, don’t know.🩵

[@GloriaCote-o1c]

What an amazing offering in 4 languages majestically and triumphantly singing to the glory of God. It's always flabbergasting the power and beauty of his voice and delivery. I am forever his greatest fan and admirer. Check his Burn Butcher Burn and 10 Metal Songs in 6 Minutes. Your reactions are so much fun and I thank you!

[@LeniG-123]

LOL, your comment "the fist of Dan Vasc grasping that high note!" Well said, Dan's got large hands & when he makes a fist they look like clubs!

[@annlandry5252]

He a natural he knows how to control his voice he sing I love when he does Opera in Italian I think it's Italian I love Opera and he's beautiful peace out my friend have a great day❤❤

[@libertyc4486]

Stunning Man ,voice and gift.Love Dan Vasc And his band .IncredibleThank you for sharing.🎵🎵🎵🎵💎💎💎💎💎💎🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@SylviaCovington-g1i]

That smirk was telling us that it's fixing to get metal. Thank you for the reaction! If you haven't already, please react to Dan's "Adeste Fideles" (Metal from beginning to end). Merry Christmas and I like your tie.

[@lynnlourance5464]

Yes please! Adeste Fideles is one my favorites! I cannot watch it too much lol!!

[@derekpetersen7571]

When are you going to try and get Dan for a interview my friend you are the one who needs to do this with your profession we will be waiting 👍

[@cheryla3958]

Great review of Dan and on his powerful performance! He is releasing a new Christmas metal song soon! Waiting for that one! Love the power, symphonic rock he does! Truly amazing! Thanks for the review! 🎶🎶 Merry Christmas to you and Yours! 🎄🤶

[@kimmalone2302]

Also, Jen, at my church we say it just like he does..echel..

[@kellymarks5480]

Dan arranges all his own covers! He is so amazing and gives me chills every time. And Victor the Guitar Nerd also rocks!

[@joyceshellhammer8865]

We care what you have to say, Ken. I love watching your reactions, and it shows your heart that you are concerned for Dan and his well being. Thanks for another great reaction.

[@JessieNebulousGaming]

Great analysis! "In a lesser mortal" 🤣 And unless it's specifically mentioned in the description, he does his own arrangements. 🙂

[@nataliemorton5568]

Hello Again Ken! You always have unique reactions to Dan Vasc but, I think we all do because Dan is a completely unique artist!! His success speaks for itself. Sidenote, I love your tie-- all signs of Christmas are welcome on my phone! Love that you are so concerned about Dan's voice. I however, have every confidence that he has that completely under control. He has an E Book you would enjoy on the best ways for singers to care for their voices. His voice is his passion and livelihood and he is smarter than most in understanding all aspects of his craft. My money is on Dan to still be singing in 30 years!! Thanks for sharing this Christmas Carol Magic!!! Merry Christmas and a Very Happy Reaction Year To You! 🎅🤶🌲🎶🎸🎧🔊❣

[@margieguild519]

Have you reviewed Adelis Fidelis? It's truly magnificent! Thanks for another great review!

[@carolekobsar1127]

Wow!!! Absolutely stunning !❤ Dan has the most incredible voice I have ever heard.

[@raskalkat9092]

Great reaction. Given all his training & work I would err on the side of he knows what he's doing. However, I would like to think your observation if accurate will be appreciated, after all we all want many, many more performances by this phenomenal musician. Merry Christmas 🎄 Hail❤️🤘✝️

Another great reaction to an amazing singer, performer, human, and Christian. Dan brings tears to my eyes when he sings, such is his transference of emotion to his audience. Keep bringing on the Dan reactions. Thoroughly enjoying your chanel. Merry Christmas 🎅 PS the tie was a lovely touch 😊

[@karenm5681]

Yup, you got the correct link/ song.✅

[@mordeys]

I assume God himself wanted to give us a taste of the HOLY HEAVENLY CHOIR of ANGLES he has ready for his return and spoke to Dan on this one... where else could this IMMACULATE performance come from?

I have read from his website that he has studied voice, what to do, what not to do even what to eat beside that fact he tasks EXCELLENT care of the rest of his body.. as we can all see he is VERY physically fit. Big fan here💜

[@soraiademboski1094]

E pensar que ele é brasileiro, e a maioria da populacao, analfabeta musicalmente, nunca ouviu falar dele. Obrigada a vocês que apoiam nossos excepcionais cantores.❤❤.

Such a great song and well done! BTW - you should look into using tuning forks with your clients to help move tension (aka stuck energy) around the body.
