Dan and Victor improved this song 1000%!
Watching Dan having so much fun singing with that beautiful smile is Heaven on Earth. I simply adore him and everything he does!
Dan is having soooo much fun singing this….dancing, smiling, looking into the camera, and hitting those high notes. You know the high notes are coming when he grabs the mic!!! He makes heaven a place earth with his amazing voice. Love Victor the guitar nerd. DANTASTIC and VICTORIOUS!!! WOW❤❤
Agreed! 😀
Great reaction! This song was fun and amazing! Once again Dan and Victor took a pop song and made it fantastic!!
Thanks for this gallop through heaven and earth with Dan, Victor and you and the chat 😉🐎🎶
Viking, I like your reaction! Dan always surprises us, and each time it's so much better than we anticipated. We already know it will be great, but we can never predict how. Here again, Dan draws us into the song. So uplifting!
I have a bone to pick with you, Viking! There I was just washing dishes, listening to reactions and then YOU come on with DAN. I have to stop everything just so I can watch. Because? JUST BECAUSE! Because with You and Dan, watching is practically an imperative. So there goes all my chores out the window while I sit down and give my complete attention to you both. Soooo…just stop it! Stop making these reaction so much fun! On second thought, Viking, please don’t😬I wanted a break and this was the perfect excuse😊
No apologies from my end ;). That is the right way to go about chores when it comes to Dan!
@user-uz7ld9ii4p -- LOVE IT! 😀
Like Your reaction as always.Thanks,all the best 😊🎉🎉🎉
I love your reactions! Dan is amazing, and your appreciation of his gift is a joy to watch! Rock on Viking!
This is the best version of this song I ever heard. Dan's powerful voice makes it so much better!😊
Thanks for another Satur Dan Day and another great reaction to this cover with Dan and the guitar nerd Victor. It looked like pure joy.
Suggestions mh.....Priscilla's song as metal and Acoustic, Go the Distance (his 100th cover), Highway to Hell (AC/DC), Lord of the Ring (Blind Guardian)
I don't think you've done it yet.
Have an epic day.
I always enjoy your reactions to Dan. Such a beautiful bromance. I think that this is one of Dan's songs that makes him happy to just be. Hope your weekend is going as peaceful as you want it to. ❤
Cool reaction Viking. Thank you so much 🤩🤗
so fun to listen with you as you point out all the elements that dan employs to make the song better. helps me hear and appreciate all that goes into making the performance so enjoyable. thanks for another great reaction. and, yes, def answer when the wife calls.
To be sure, on the phone call! My husband VERY rarely answers when I call or text him, because he doesn't keep his phone on him all the time...OR...he's driving, with his phone in his pocket! What he usually does, is get home (usually about two hours later), park, and THEN look at at his phone...and answer me. I know better than to expect it to be otherwise, but you probably know the saying, "Hope springs eternal, in the human heart!" 😀
He is smart and can be very proud of himself. In the music business in particular, it is not easy to make it big without middlemen. He can now live off his music and we benefit from his brilliant singing. For the most part, he makes the songs better than the originals... And... As a result, the originals and the metal scene are gaining popularity again. The best singer from the metal scene has done everything right and delights many, many people, fans with his voice and especially me 😘♥️ 🤘. Thx for sharing 👍
Agree,like your comment 🎉🎉😊
Loving SaturDanDay! Great reaction to another great cover by Dan. Thank you so much!
Hi Viking. Dan and Victor 🎸...my favorite duo;) Dan looks like he's having fun;) I loved this version 😍 Dan is amazing 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for your great reaction, as always!
So sorry to miss the premier! I love the community that you have accumulated.😂❤ Happy SaturDanDay!
What a Saturday afternoon treat! Viking, Dan & Victor covering Belinda Carlisle….. perfect day already! Yes, this was Vascified brilliantly!!🙌
YAY! SATURDANDAY! So glad you didn't cut off that last high scream! Love the energy in this one! And love your reaction, as always!
Dan Vasc has a beautiful smile. Makes me melt ❤
We need to get you and Dan to meet up
That was so superbly done. Dan and Victor nailed it. Absolutely amazing. Loved your reaction as usual. Thank you so much.
I completely agree that you can hear Dan's smile through this cover. How can you not smile with this rocked up version? Love, love, LOVE Dan's version 🤩
I just love watching you react to Dan. You are so giddy And enjoying yourself so much it is infectious. I too prefer this 1 over the original.
Hurray for SaturDANday! As usual, love the reaction, Viking. So much fun I wore a grin the whole time, partly because of Dan & partly because of your fun reaction. Dan & Victor definitely took a Pop song & rocked it to perfection while retaining the basic essence of the original. That impossible note at the end is mind blowing. Dan's obviously having a great time singing this & taunting us with those looks & his smile. Lol.
I knew you'd love it! It's one of my top 10 Dan faves, amazing reaction as always!!
I knew
You would love this keep them coming my friend
Do “Kickstart My Heart” next…you’ll love the wild, crazy energy Dan brings to that song. He gives 110%, no holding back. (And the “lionesses” love this video in particular too.😂)
Agreed! 😀
❤ Love Dan❣️👍 Thank you👍😀
AWESOME reaction, Viking!! How very fun, yet metal, both at the same time! I'm guessing 10 layers??? I LOVE SaturDANdays!!! 🤘
Me too...even though I usually don't get to join them until it's either almost early Sunday, or IS early Sunday (like right now). It's still SATURDANDAY, until I get to hear Viking React! 😀
It is a facett(or hayer ????)
Nj😅 norway
That high note is my favorite. Happy SaturDan day.
Dan Vasc is amazing!!!!
Fabulous SaturDANday choice... and onto the next.. whatever you would choose Viking is going to be fine by me
Belinda Carlisle did this song as a solo artist, but she was originally the lead singer of The Go-Go's. Happy, nostalgic memories of my tween/early teen (Gen X) years.
Dan just took it to the next level like he usually does. I hesitated listening to this one at first because I just couldn't see it being done by Dan or as a rock song. Obviously, I didn't know Dan as well at that time & my goodness was I in for a surprise. He just never ceases to amaze.
I loved Dan's version of this song. I liked the original, but Dan made it so much more interesting and yessss fun.❤ 🐉❤️
Yay! It's SaturDanday! Love this song,and it looked like Dan was having alot of fun with it! Always love your reactions! Kickstart my Heart is what I would recommend next!
Great video! This particular song is one of my absolute favorite covers of Dan's! By far, better than the original, in my opinion. :) I would highly recommed checking out his Manowar cover of "Blood Of My Enemies" next! That's another one of my favorites of his!
Great reaction. Dan's performance of this song is the only one we need. I know this song well, have known it for a while and have to say......I like Dan's more. His smile carries through the whole song and completely lifts whoever is listening. How could you not be happier after watching this video. Hail Vasc-Nation❤🤘✝
A lot of people miss that last, fabulous note. I'm so glad you not only heard it but played it again. Fun song. Thanks, Viking!
Dan has 2 great Sabaton covers, check them out. Oh and great covers by Within Temptation....or just anything :D
Dan's Within Temptation covers are great! Faster was one of my early favs, and like Dan's Nightwish ... in fact most of the artists Dan covers ... was my intro to those awesome bands/artists! Iron, and, Stand My Ground are also 🔥
I love love love fairy tale from Dan that is soooo great. Please have a look you will love it
YES! 'Tis awesome!❤
OH, YES! It's wonderful! 😀
Great reaction as usual! Love this better than original! You haven’t reacted to Born to be Wild or The Show Must Go On yet Please 🙏 ❤
Another great Dan reaction, Viking. And Victor! Wow. Thanks so much.
Another great cover by Dan, and a great reaction by you!
YES
This lioness totally agrees! I LOVE this song...how can you NOT?! Then, after the grit, at the end, there's that one sliding high note...F#5 flying off into the distance !!! I matched it on the virtual piano that I usually grab online. I actually thought it was higher than that, but then I was surprised, because...CARLO...I MATCHED IT!!! I didn't think I could, yet. I can go to G5, now, I just discovered! I USED to easily be able to hit and sustain C6 like it was NOTHING, before 2006, but...yeah...wow! I've not been able to get over G4, until I MADE that come out, to match Dan! So...THANK YOU EXTRA MUCH for doing this great reaction! 😀
The REALLY fun thing, is that DAN hit that note!!! Oh, my word! Still...he DID hit that now-very famous E6 on "My Heart Will Go On" with the same kind of slide, as Garrett climbed up there on the guitar in the background.
My grandson Isaiah hit THAT note! and held it even longer than Dan did, as we were all singing along with THAT song. He'll be turning 16 on June 6, though, and he's already starting to crack on the REALLY high notes, I've noticed.
I think I'm gonna have to get all the kids to sing THIS one, now!
Thanks VERY MUCH. You have made my night (1:38 AM here right now, and I will be up for another six or seven hours).
Love it🥰🥰viking you’re the best💪Love Saturdanday
Love SaturDanday, love this song and especially love this song sang by the one and only Dan. He makes every song better with those amazing vocals of his. Great reaction thank you!!
I believe that Dan makes all songs better and no, I haven't heard a bad one. I will second another comment below that you should react to both versions of Priscilla's Song from the Witcher series, but if only one, then the metal version. It's just nice to compare them side by side and both are amazing on their own. Thanks so much for making my SaturDanday so much fun.
I would say the same, except I'd reverse it...if Viking can only do one, then he should do the original version! 😀
I love both versions, but I'm REALLY fond of the original sound, the way that Dan does it. Plus I love getting to see Dan's lovely dog. 😀
I love SaturDanDays and all of your reactions Viking! Your personality shines through every one, making you one of my very favorite reactors on CZcams. :)
It warms my heart to read these comments. I’m happy to see you enjoy my videos :)
Awesome reaction Viking I loved it😊❤😍 I love SaturDanDay best day of the week 🤟✌
Dude, I love each and every single of your reactions, but that moment at the end of the video when you were looking in the air, like the final high note left the ground into a hot-air balloon got me ROFL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I loved that, also. 😀
Diggy diggy hole by wind rose. Lol. dwarven heavy metal 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
a classic made epic by Dan...
I love your reactions! You’re so funny!😂 Always cracking me up.
I also liked it when you called us “friends and lionesses” in the subtitles you write.😊
Dan’s “Born to be Wild” cover is along the same lines as this song and I love it so much. I think you will too.🎙️🎶🎶🎶
When it comes to Dan… many shy cubs turn into fierce lionesses ;)
@@VikingReacts 😂🤣😆
@@VikingReactsI thought lionesses was a reference to the “cougars” that stalk his videos!
@@elaineboone8567 That's what I told @Laurgal5 when she started with that term...it's a long story, and it's all HER fault! Honestly! Seriously!🤭😅🤣
It is a good term though ;)
Thanks for another #saturdanday reaction!
Hope you enjoyed it!
I have to agree with a lot of other commenters. Other than it being a great song, he was smiling pretty much all the way through it. Doubly great! (If that is a word even)! Thank you for reacting to this! Great weekend everyone!
And that is all both Dan and I can ask for ;)
Loved the fun reaction, Viking! I'm always here for Dan ... and a few others (sometimes🥱😤🙄), lol!
Howzabout a Dan training-wheel song or two for a reaction? It could include the original for comparision ... or not! 😂
This one Dan specifically used to train his voice ... and yes it's still awesome ... A Tale That Wasn't Right. 😛😃😇😘
There is another that i cant recall its title ... please help Vasc Nation! ... its his tribute to Andre Matos after his passing??? Im sure there are many more of Dan's earlier work that were important training tools used to build his vocal excellence. Dan's fans could direct you to them if you are interested in doing a few in that kind of a theme. Whatever you decide, I'll always be here for you and Dan! 😊
Andre Matos tribute “ Cary On” 😊❤
@@magdao8235 Thank you! I was having a brain fart and didn't want to leave to look it up!
@@KerryNelsonART He also did another one that gives honor to Andre (not officially, but he mentions how important Andre was, in his own voice-training). It's "Wuthering Heights." Viking already reacted to that one. 😀
Fanfrickentastic
Seeing Dan sing with so much happiness is a joy! Love his smile! It doesn't get any better than Dan. Love your reactions of him.
I have very quickly come to realise that everything is sooooo much better when it is Vascinated and Victorised...😉
The late 70s and early 80s were my cut loose, party til ya drop, time has no meaning, days,,, before starting to somewhat settle down with kids and responsibilities and all that other adulting stuff... Knock off work on Friday arvo, go home quick shower, shove some food down the face and out the door... pick up the girls on the way to whichever party, club or pub we were going to that night and do again on Saturday night 😁
Life was about having fun with no worries about the future...it was ours to do with what we pleased and we did 😁😁
Every time I listen to Dan do one of these 80s bangers it brings back the memories of when we thought we knew it all and had it all,,, now I'm an old lady with grandkids coming up to the same age I was then and that scares the living shit outta me,,, and reminds me just how old I really am...🥴
🙃🐨🇦🇺
Just wanted to say, Hi @grandy2875, it’s Virginia. We chatted before, I think on Dan’s page. Hope you’re doing well. I wonder if anyone else has considered flying out to Brazil to see Dan? If you still need someone to push you, let me know! : )
LOL When I saw the thumbnail I already had fun because I knew you would pick up on that wild last note. This whole video is so much fun. Thanks for the great reaction. Um… suggestion… Always?
Glad you enjoyed it! How can you not pick that up though?!
@@VikingReacts😢 some reactors don't seem to even listen to what they are reacting to.
@@KerryNelsonART You're absolutely correct on that, Kerry! A LOT of them don't seem to!
What is the point of doing reactions if you don't??
I love your channel and watching your reactions. Are you and I the only ones who get emotion when we hear good music. It's embarrassing sometimes when I can't stop tearing up... but I can only be me, right?
Oh no, many of us do. And that is such a huge part of my enjoyment that I get running this channel…validation. I’m not the only one who feels what he feels :)
@@VikingReacts Not by a long shot! 😀
@@VikingReacts OMG thank you!
Validated and feeling good 🎶
A massive upgrade! Such terrific energy, lots of smiles, and Dan’s great voice and great singing. I suggest you check out the comment he pinned on the original …. 😊. Trust the science! Thanks for another great reaction, Viking!
Thanks! Love your reactions. They are almost as much fun as watching Dan's expressions. 2 requests: Valhalla & I Want Out. Both older videos of Dan. I can't believe you haven't heard him sing Valhalla being the Viking you are!
Haha, maybe I missed out on my Viking heritage! I'll definitely check out those videos. Thank you very much for the support!
Just Dan doing Dan things and having a lot of fun !! LOVE IT!!
Great reaction Viking. Like you we have run out of words to say anything about Dan, he is a tremendous singer and performer. Looking forwards to the next one. And let's not forget Victor he to is fabulous.
Victor has his own channel with some beautifu and surprising videos. Head on over and show him some love. It’s Victor The Guitar Nerd. There’s even a video that shows him in shadow. I swear he and Tommy Johanson must be twins. 😂
The video that shows Victor in it is his original "Harmonics," which he wrote while he was trying to perfect a different way to tune his guitar. 😀 It's FANTASTIC, plus the fact that you DO get to, sort of, see Victor's face.
If you watch a few of the Swedish band Eleine's videos, you can see more of his face. Just watch carefully during the songs. He's the only one of the three guitarists who has long, STRAIGHT red-blonde hair. The other two have very dark, Viking locks. 😀
Great reaction once again, Viking!
Yes, articulation is overrated with some reactions; just get in enough that we can understand your intentions through the surprised grunts and gasps of amazement 😉
Thanks for another SaturDan :) You should react to American Trilogy. Her recordet it as a tribune to his Dad (his favorite song) who passed away just 5 days prior. Purest Dan, I ever saw, wonderful, open connecting with everyone who lost a loverdones.
I love your reactions. You get into the songs so much. 😊
Fair play. Loved the original, he made it his and made it fun to hear. Well done 👍👏👏👏
This is my favorite batch of your captions, lol. Hilarious.
❤
It a fasett (or hayer ?? )
I love your smiling always ❤
Absolutely loved it ❤️
His looks are as beautiful as his voice sexy as all get out.
Dan did a great job again. I didn’t like the original much, perhaps because I’m not an 80s kid, I’m more of a 70s kid. 🙂But I love Dan’s solid metal touch and of course the guitar... And his moves ... and his hair flip ... and his smile ..........................................
I love your beginning fire ball thing. Is it new? I don’t recall seeing it before. Thank you Viking for another great, enjoyable review! I appreciate it.
It's definitely new. 😀
It is indeed new. The essence is the same as the old intro but i wanted it to be more bad ass ;)
Thanks to you I discovered his channel. he is absolutely amazing. try My Heart will go On I dare you. It's as if Helloween wrote that
Please react to his cover of Northwest passage! No one reacted so far ! TY
That song would fit him so well that I can already hear him sing it! I think I actually know how he did it… Soon my friend!
Yes! Great song
Why didn’t he show us that high note? WHY?????
Maybe because he couldn't smile while he hit it?????????
To leave us wanting more? (What a tease!)
Honestly, has there ever been a Dan Vasc song that you did NOT love?
Ik hoor je zeggen dat je van 1982 bent, dan ben je 7 jaar ouder dan Dan. Ik mag jullie eigenlijk geen broekies noemen, maar ik doe het toch. 😋 Ja, als jouw vrouw je belt dan kan je dat niet weigeren. Daarom app ik mijn man. 😄 Wat betreft de 80's muziek, niet alles valt in mijn smaak. Maar als Dan een 80's liedje vertolkt dan ga ik toch met andere oren naar het origineel luisteren. Best wel raar, vindt je niet?
I hope Tommy J do a better cover =)
