You can’t forget a Lara performance. You need to dive in for more. She’s extraordinary.
Lara help that sustained note at the end for 17 seconds
I'm a french heavy metal singer and i can't help but cry when she sings that song... She's amazing
Lara is a masterclass vocalist
One of the best emotional singers.
btw, she does coach some singers.
Imagine how lucky they are.
Lara's just one of the best performers in the World !
Lara Fabian not only has that voice, but she speaks multiple languages. Why do we not have that in the US. She literally speaks like ten.
Her “Broken Vow” song is amazing!! She co wrote and recorded it. Her ability to hold emotion is amazing.
More information on Lara Fabian:
Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Lisa Fischer, ....
In my personal opinion, she is even the best.
There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 8,000 attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register.
So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence:
• she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total
• she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for most her songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music with the composer.
• she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none
• she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens.
A quick background on her and her career:
She is belgian, her father is flemish, but also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( her grandfather is from Detroit). She was raised in sicilia first then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages.
She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today.
She started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada.
She now lives in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship
She became very famous there and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music).
In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US.
This concert is legendary and the song you just reviewed is from this concert.
But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan.
She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance.
She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then.
Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), …
With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there.
Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her.
She is Dimash's idol:
I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep.
He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara.
Out of my mind I can list:
○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version)
○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know")
She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love".
And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva).
Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida.
Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara.
Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it.
Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration:
○ Floor Jansen (Adagio),
○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime),
○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie),
○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow),
○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace),
○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow),
○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow),
○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow),
○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime),
○ Forestella (Je suis Malade),
○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow),
○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow)
○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow),
○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know),
○ Il Divo (Adagio)
○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you),
○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow)
○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso),
○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie),
○ Amir (Je t’aime),
○ Vitas (Adagio),
○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio),
○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio),
○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade),
○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade),
○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio)
○ Majda Roumi (Adagio),
○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow),
○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow),
○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you)
○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime)
○ ....
NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version.
Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature.
In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular.
On April 23 2023 she had again a wonderful concert in Tbilissi, Georgia
Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
Simply magnificent!
I don't even know how many reactions to this performance I've seen since I stumbled upon it a couple of years ago, but it's probably an unhealthy number!. It never gets old, though, and yours is a top tier contribution - thank you. For me, Lara Fabian has filled a void in my musical appreciation that I didn't know was there until I first heard this song. The good news is that there's much, much more.....
Lara is a magical singer and can provide such emotional intensity as to captivate you completely. One of my favourite singers 😎
Lara is the most amazing performer of all times, the best storyteller, and impecable technique... not Dimash role model by chance... she is a masterpiece
As well as composer.... and still singing a lot as of today
You don’t even know how big and influential she is on the music scene. 😂
I just checked your recent videos and just looking at the most recents: almost all of them did cover one or many of her songs.
I am speaking of : Dimash, Floor Jansen, Cakra Khan, Gigi de Lana, Gabriel Henrique, Diana Ankudinova, Morissette Amon, Katrina Velarde, Almira from 4th impact, …
I did not investigate further but I am sure I could add some other names as Forestella, Jackie Evancho, Rimar, Sarah Geronimo, Julie Anne asan Jose, Laura Bretan, Vitas, Il Divo, …
And even singing legends such as Josh Groban, Shirley Bassey, Barbra Streisand did cover her songs 😮
In fact she is a role model for Josh Groban who made several duets with her, or for Dimash who is her absolute fan since he is a child and covered several of her songs. Lara even wrote a song for him 😂
I will post separately more details about her, this song or a first playlist.
Wow you’re right, I had no idea. So glad I finally got on the Lara train! Would love to watch some of these covers, as well as more Lara!
Ciao, non conoscevi LARA FABIAN......adesso si è presentata.......e non crederai a quello che ascolteranno le tue orecchie e vedranno i tuoi occhi e di quali abilità tecniche e vocali possiede questa artista.........controlla un'altra canzone di LARA una qualunque a caso nel mucchio, sono tutti gioielli. Saluti 👋
“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973.
This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …).
When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and compose the music in a couple of hours.
The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes.
Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad.
But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s.
At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version.
She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during is own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone.
Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on.
The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal)
czcams.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/video.html
is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries.
The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella.
Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance this 2003 version is even more dramatic
czcams.com/video/SyILdRAOS88/video.html
BS
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....
Amazing! Yes, she has a new fan, I will definitely react to more Lara!
The rest of the story: It has been said many times that Celine Dion’s Label, management, etc. threatened to break Celine's exclusive contract. In any case, Lara is adored by endless fans, and seems to be very happy! Not only the world’s best female singer/performer, but also a writer, actor, director and cookbook writer (and mother).
@@ardentynekent2099 Agree
So emotional performance. A combination of sadness, anger, despair. And he managed to get that emotion. Even when the song was over, he was still in that emotion. Incredibles. My favorite female singer ❤
The breaths are there to enhance the emotions to come through. You should also have taken the video through to the end to see just how long it took her to come out of the song and back into the real world. It looks as if she isn't aware of the audience reaction.
A true artist.
Exactly my idea, it is very worthwile watching it until the very end 👌!
Correct. Her breathing is just one of her many physical tools to add emotion to her songs, nothing to do with contrasting with a soft tone. And on the ending, so many reviewers miss it don't they?!
Congratulations Juliet!!...It was an amazing reaction to The Goddess Lara Fabian!!...Thank you for accept our suggestions to react to her...Now you know why she is the Dimash's idol 😊😊!!
Yes, I can see how she influenced Dimash for sure. So glad I finally got to see what Lara is all about. Really excited to get to know her talent more, this performance was perfection!
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach Hi! You got yourself anothe subscriber! Such a wonderful reaction! Lara is always saying: "J'ai un grand garage!", meaning "I have a big garage!", referring to her mouth!
What a great reaction...thank you. Lara is the best performing artist of the last 30 years and is a, or the, key influence on most of the young voices thrilling us today. At last count she has sung in 12 languages and her army of adoring fans is very large, very global. She is the Queen, our Queen, My Queen...long may she reign
Lara entered the Eurovision Song Contest in 1988, the same year as Celine Dion who won. Never forgotten that, 2 of the world's greatest singers in one competition, who knew!
Céline is just a singer , Lara is a Story singer with extraordinary stage presence…body and soul,
I never understood why Celine, not a European, was allowed.
The skill of interpretation is out of this world on this performance. You can even see it at the end of the performance, she is looking down and still in her character. Not easy to let go of such an emotional piece. Evident that she poured something personal into this. Though if you do, as a singer, you cant perform such a piece for long or it will destroy you.
One of the world's finest vocalist ! Lara is a dynamic and emotionally charged performer ! Fabulous story teller so captivating and mesmerizing ! By the eay Lara is one of Dimash's great inspirations and has collaborated number of times ! Thank tou remindung me of what great singing is all about ! Please cinituy yiur Lara Fabian reactions you will nit be disappointed ! Much tganjs and kove from Canada 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️ !
I've been to her concert last year in Belgrade, Serbia. I drove for six hours and it was worth every minute and every cent.
There is some 25 years between this performance and now so my expectations were not that high, realistically, she is in the age when singers start to decline, nature working against them. I didn't notice that, at all! She is simply amazing! And her stage presence, emotion, humility...... Queen of Emotions.
And this is coming from an old rock fan....
@@fifi23o5 fantastic ! I live in Canada and hope she comes to my area next year to witness pure vocal artistry at the highest level ! There are not many singers who can deliver these performances anymore ! She is a Diva and her vocals and dynamic delivery are above Celine Dion who we live here in Canada ! Thank you for your comments ! Much appreciated ! 👍🇨🇦❤️
@@rongotwalt4487 True, she is a Diva, but at the same time she is not a' 'diva'', she is also a real lady. I like Celine, too, but still, Lara is a bit higher on my list. Her stage performance and connection with her music is just out of this world, not seen much of it these days, she truly is one of the few left.
You could call me old (?), but my soul is quite young and I still appreciate good, old values. Sounds like an oxymoron, right? And being a rock/metal/prog guy....
Greetings from Slovenia
@@fifi23o5 totally agree ! I love a lot of genres of music ! The You Tube channel has opened my eyes to all the real talent there is in the world ! I'm an old school rocker but now I really appreciate great artists ! Listening to great vocal coaches reactions and commentary has made me appreciate the vocal qualities that these wonderful artists have ! I've discovered Dimash Kudaibergen who is the world's best technical male singer by far ! At least a 7 octave vocal range and fabulous stage presence ! Diana Ankudinova who is absolutely mesmerizing with her unique voice ! Angelina Jordan who is a child prodigy and is now 17 and will set the music scene on fire this year with her debut album for sure ! Faouzia is a Canadian Moroccan singer songwriter that is absolutely amazing and has unique powerful and melodic vocals ! Morissette Amon a Filipino singer who is the Mariah Carey of Asia no doubt ! Just a few I would suggest you listen to if you haven't already ! Thanks again ! 👍👍
@@rongotwalt4487 Very interesting! You stole my list! Same names are on my list, just add Floor Jensen to it and I will sue you!
Joke, of course.
Faouzia is quite new on my list, I only recently found out about her. May I recommend another Russian singer? Try Pelageya, music might not be to everybody's liking, she sings mostly folk music, but her vocal is ....
Funny how two guys with rock background and from totally different parts of the world share the same apreciation of great, non-mainstream artists!
On a serious note. You Canadians suck! Maple syrup. We need to talk about that. To you it is a final product, I see it as a raw material which has potential to be converted into something noble with the assistance of microorganisms, the kind that eats sugar then fatrs CO2 and pees C2H5OH.
Cheers, brother!

There are three certainties in life: death, taxes, and Eric Sicard responding to a Lara Fabian reaction video with a comprehensive list of absolute Lara classics. ;)
@@darkchocolate4643 Talk about having no life
Brilliant reaction to this brilliant artist. She is nothing short of astonishing. I would urge you to watch her version of this song from her En Toute Intimite concert. Also her cover of Caruso is wonderful and she wrote and sings the song Broken Vow made most famous by Josh Groban. Thank you for this gift of a reaction. If you get the chance, watch her in this video after the song ends. She doesn't get out of character. She is totally devastated and she remains in that state throughout the applause. And BRAVA for noticing the mic drop during that plea moment. I have never seen any reactor mention or even notice it. It is SUCH an important moment.
Those breaths are important for such an emotional songs..shows the troubled state of mind
Great reaction to such an incredible performance! My favourite ever female singer for sure! I highly recommend that you react to the following songs
You're not from here, Caruso, Broken Vow, Adagio and Perdere l'amore. They are all so amazing!
Looking forward to your next reaction!
Greetings from London 😀
Bem-Vinda ao mundo de Lara Fabian! Ela é uma contadora de histórias em suas músicas.
Thanks for react
Une légende 👂🇨🇵🥰
Hello *"Your Online Singing Coach,"*
Everything is there to make this performance one of the most perfect performances ever performed on stage.
The lyrics first; this text is quite simply amazingly beautiful, as hard as it is tender and tragic at the same time, borrowed from irony, melancholy, but also rebellion and anger in the face of the inability to fight this evil which devours the author (Serge Lama, in reality, in 1973) and which pushes her into these last entrenchments, to the limit of the bearable, forcing her to succumb, without desire, and without taste, to the sirens of prohibited products, without even achieving her ends: *"Un seul être vous manque, et tout est dépeuplé"* (Only one Being is missing you, and everything is depopulated) said the brilliant aphorism of the French author *Lamartine* in his poem *"L''isolement"* (The isolation).
The music then, incredibly in harmony with the lyrics of the song and following the waltz of these feelings yet so contrasting without ever failing to adapt perfectly to each situation; Here, the arrangements, of course, have a significant role to play in creating this atmosphere as intimate as the sudden lyrical flights that surprise us at every turn.
And, to top it off, Lara's unique voice, her undeniable talent for underlining a word, a sentence, changing tone without ever tossing off the ride, as a lambda driver would, however, do at the wheel of a dream machine like a Formula One. Which, nevertheless, he couldn't control and would cause untimely jerks.
Lara is, in a way, the gifted pilot of this jewel of engineering, with such fragile precision mechanics for those who can't negotiate these 180° turns, which follow one another without discontinuing, and she makes us cross the last straight line before the finish line in such a magisterial way.
This is also how we differentiate genius from mere talent.
Peace, folks. ☮😉
You can hear the falling scales of the piano in the beginning, like her health is failing already
Lara is one of a kind. One of the few singers that can move me every time I hear them sing.
Είναι η βασίλισσα μας ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️
Lara Fabian is Fabulous 🤩
You need to see Broken Vow, Je t'aime, Adagio she's the writer of those songs
When you watch more of Lara you will see she always shines a light on her accompanying musicians, as well as being (IMO) the greatest vocalist ever she is gracious and gives everyone so much.
"Adagio" (from lara with love) is much better song to analyze her vocal skills, " you're not from here" aswel
She is the real beast live. Her performances from the same concert as this song are insane!
"Adagio" --> czcams.com/video/bqoS-KOLV_4/video.html

Thanks for the suggestions, I’d love to watch and react to more Lara!
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach Adagio is top
I had look hundred of reaction on her...and you are the best ever..
Ok now you will became a fan.i strongly suggest you to listen ADAGIO the live version...you will be amaze..totaly amaze...
Lara is a genius ❤ Could you please react to her Adagio, Broken Vows, Caruso ❤❤❤
Love this woman she is good from holland and curacao🇨🇼🇱🇺🇨🇼🇱🇺🇨🇼🇱🇺❤
The world has a lot of beauty or beauties that many or most people don't seem to appreciate. One of the very rare beauties in our world today is none other than Lara Fabian. She's the true artist in the absolute masterclass category.
Starting of it can be noted how engaged she becomes with the piece that she's about strike on. The different transitions vocally and physically (body language) including facial expressions... All very emotionally done too. The way she directed the Orchestra after the moment of a capella, so skillfully done.
You too, I sense can tell us a lot more about the goings-on of the various artists with regard to vocal techniques, stage presence and performances. Be that as it may, I like and appreciate your reaction videos. Every little bit helps with the learning process, which is alway an ongoing activity. ❤
So good, I would like 10 minutes more of your video, at least!
I just started to listen to Lara's singing a few weeks ago. I heard of her several years ago and copied a few songs from a CD but really never gave them a listen. Boy, what a mistake!! What I have discovered that she is the consummate professional. I've listened to every performance from her concert "From Lara with Love 2000" - outstanding! Her signature song is Je Taime sung at her concert "Live from Paris 2001" most of the song are sung in French - her performance of Je Taime at that concert is epic and emotional as it is with all her performances.
Stunningly emotional performance. There's something very unique about French singers and how they express profound emotions
I loved your reaction, there are English/French captions available to this video.
I think this video is worth another watch, in your own time with the English lyrics on screen because the words are absolutely heartbreaking. TY for your analysis
I must have seen almost a hundred reaction videos to this performance. I actually watched it when it first aired and I am s happy that after 20+years she is finally acknowledged as the gifted singer and performer she is.
I really liked how you were nodding and clearly also emotionally invested while reacting.
👉 Lara Fabian (Pronounced: Lah-rah, Fah-bee-yahn) *1970, is a fantastic and brilliant Belgian-Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, actress and producer. She is Belgian but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicily). She grew up in both countries and therefore speaks both French and Italian as her mother tongue. She was classically trained in singing, piano and song composition for 10 years (from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
To this day she has singing lessons and trains several times a week. She started her career in Canada in the early 1990s. She now lives in Montreal and also has Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in 4 languages (French, Italian, English, Spanish) and has sung in a total of 12 languages. She has sold over 20 million records worldwide as of September 2017 and is one of the best-selling Belgian artists of all time.
In 2000, Lara launched her triumphal procession in the US, but a falling out with Sony over her artistic direction and the will of Celine Dion's management to block her path to the US thwarted that plan.
She therefore focused on Europe again and had great success there, expanding her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her many years of collaboration with Igor Krutoy. She's also a star in Brazilia.
Many of their songs are now classics and are covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban...
The US is now rediscovering her through her covers of Lara Fabian songs.
She is Dimash's idol. He has covered many of their songs. She also wrote the lyrics to his song 'Your Love'. and they shared the stage and performed Ti Amo Cosi (composed by Igor Krutoy) along with Aida Garafulina: Ti Amo Cosi - czcams.com/video/XaQFfqC3lnU/video.html
Lara is one of the best singers in the world, for me the most soulful singer!

Everytime I look this performance I am totally spellbound 😅🫶
Ella es una heroína.
Me gusto mucho este análisis, hace de todo en este tema, como para estudio, ella es sinceramente una ARTISTA extraordinaria, por decir lo menos.
Beautiful react :)
Questa artesta meravigluosa e tutti le persone del mondo la dorano
she is amazing....this is Master Class singing...thanks for sharing
Lara The best.
All other things set apart, I do love that beginning stance,
It shows such strength and preparation. You're the first person I've heard commenting on that.
Yeah, well... The rest of your reaction is on point.
Please, indulge me, I understand you wouldn't take too many recommendations from the comments.
If we want to stay in the French language, Marcia Baila by the Rita Mitsouko is gem of funky complex pop and a best seller (Official clip video is the one)
If we want to remain in the English language, I've yet to watch a reaction of Autumn's Child by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band (No great vid, there, just studio versions). For some out of this world blues-pop from the 60's (Melvin Von Peebles is also a contender).
Cheers.
She sings sooo emotional she is a nice person
That electric guitar @the end dropped me off the edge of my seat!!!!!!!!!...I love lara fabian!
Welcome to Lara’s world! Now react to Adagio, Broken Vow, You’re Not From Here, Perdere L’Amore, Carusso, Requiem Pour un Fou (with Jonny Halliday)
Adding that whatever the language used her diction is always perfectly clear and that is top as well.
I enjoyed your reaction...you offered insights that were new from other reactors....very nice. I will look forward to seeing more from you as you see that Lara may be the best live performer today as well as a truly great great voice. Perhaps the best...(IMO)...1 suggestion if I may....never, never cut one of her video's off/short before it ends on its own. You will often gain more insight into Lara and her commitment to her art as well as how she and the audience interact together. Lara seems as though she transports herself to a place where she and the song she is singing become one together. A specific example would be Je Suis Malade....where if you let it run its course, you would have seen the almost trance like state she was in and how she needed time to come out of it.
Thank you...and I will look forward to more of your reactions with Lara
I ain't reading allat but good luck lil' bro 🙏
I'm French and when I listen to the Diva Lara Fabian sing I burst into tears...they flow on their own. The texts, the musicality and especially the interpretation of Lara are incredible? You would think she was telling her own life, just wonderful... she gives me goosebumps. One of the most beautiful songs of all time... A great artist, again BRAVO LARA
Masterclass in action. That's a wrap 💪💞🎬
Thsi song was written by iconic French singer Serge Lama (who made a name for himself by also creating a musical about the Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte), and composed by Alice Dona, his former partner in life.
It quickly became a hit and his most famous song, so much so that he can not perform without singing it at everyone of his gigs.
Lara Fabian covered it the way we hear it here, and that probably was her best performance ever. She is a highly skilled singer, but her choice got her to work with poorly inspired producers and tour managers. This got her a reputation of a "superficial" singer, when all she ever wanted was to live her passion for singing. This moment shows how invested and focused she is, perhaps too deeply to have a good knowledge of what happens around her (my 2 cents analysis on what she has been through).
Some day tough, she may well kick back and surprise everyone with her true and pure talent.
I strongly recommend everyone to have a listen at the duet she performed with the late (Claude) Maurane during the 18th "Victoires de La Musique" (French awards for musicians and performers, in pop, classical, jazz). They paired to sing live "Tu Es Mon Autre" ( = "You are my other [one]" or "You are my alter ego"), and this probably was one of the greatest moment in the history of live pop music. One to remember indeed, and everyone in France and Belgium has a place in their hearts for this song.
Lara Fabian...the ""wow"" girl ..
Like you can see here once again and as it has remained in all the years she has performed....
Her performances can be called minimalistic. Fabian does not have backup dancers. She wears a strict dress code, light makeup, no flashy fingernails, and usually not one or a minimum number of pieces of jewelry on stage.
Her unique very strong but velvety 4.1-octave voice (lyric soprano) whit an exceptional breath control, that is the only thing that the audience receives. The ""Belgian powervoice""
The emotional and very expressive performances always captivates the audience.
On top of that Lara stays simple , humble and she is a very beautiful personality ....
Lara can manipulate her voice like she wants
One of her biggest successes very ''soft"".

quel drole de comprehension a cette chanson incroyable , une interpretation magistrale et en plus une actrice qui nous fait vivre sa chanson , mais je suis habituer etant francais et fan de lara
,sa raconte la vie d'un chanteur a succes amoureux serge lama qui vivait vraiment ce moment quand il la chanter ... ;)
Please react to Lara Fabian and Johnny Hallyday. Requiem Pour un fou. Totally different style with a heck of a performance. Loved your breakdown.
She's amazing! I listen to her almost every day..
I never get tired of her..
She stands out among the crowd.. without a doubt, in a class of her own
She has been considered the fourth diva.
Lara and Floor Jansen are the best (storytellers and emotionally)🎶🎶🤟🏻🤟🏻
un artista nel senso della parola
Très bon choix !Love from France !☮️
Lara Queen! :P The fact she speaks 5 languages fluently alone would make her a Queen :) But some higher power said " thats not enough, you have to be able to sing!!" ... oh well :P
For your next reaction I would strongly recommand to you her interpretation of ADAGIO. Then you will hear what a powerhouse is.
I think that will be my next Lara reaction - can’t wait! 😊
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach she co-wrote the lyrics for the english version and wrote the italian version. She is the original performer. It’s her song.
Interpretation? It's her song, you know.
@@jamesp7709 yes I know and she wrote a spanish version too. I'm french speaking. Interpretation in French doesn't exclude the possibility the person is the autorise.
The writer of the song. My phone is going crasy when I write in english.
A versão de Je sui malade do grupo Forestella é espetacular
Lara is in another galaxy then celine.....Lara is superior in every way
Lara is purposely using exaggerated breath for expression
Yes she did this a lot for this concert. And it worked perfectly because she was using it at the right moment. And it conveyed a lot of emotions and meaning.
But then, the following concerts, she stopped doing that. Maybe due to some unfair critics.
I saw once a so-called “vocal coach” reacting to the absolute masterpiece Broken Vow who focused only on this and said Lara was crap and not in control of her vocals. In fact, she, the “coach”, was the only one crap. She was not coaching anything, nor resonating to any artistry or emotion. Just enforcing a set of vocal “rules” that she believed was deciding if a live rendition was good. Her only focus was to check if a perf was compliant or not to her “golden rules”. I never attended a reaction from this miserable art destroyer again. 😂
Good for lara.
IT WORKS!!!!!!
I really enjoyed your reaction 😊
Lara is one of my favorite singers... the other is Eva Cassidy try "Over the Rainbow" and "Autumn Leaves"
She is also sings in spanish her song quedate❤🇨🇼🇱🇺
Hello sweetheart. First time I run into your page but I subscribed before you finish your reaction, I didn't need more time to decide about a good girl and an interesting reactor. Lara has been a Cinderella. She left Europe at her 19 and came to Canada without money or usefull connections to start a career from zero point and had to spend nights even in a ..car. The fact she is famous and popular all over the world but still almost unknown in US is not a mystery. You can ask Mrs Celine Dion who did everything with her rich husband through Sony Music to block and cancell Lara's career in USA. And they succeeded. Lara came close even to suicidal thoughts due to some tragic love stories. She was fortunately saved from the incredible love she received by her audience in her Paris2001 concert ("je t'aime" etc). Today she looks happy at last with her husband and daughter. But when you talk about her you better not mention "princess" Celine who doesn't seem she has any regrets for what she did to an adorable creature
Gracias por reaccionar a la interpretación de Lara sin recurrir a la traducción de la letra a inglés ( muy imprecisa ) en un momento cantó a capella. Te faltó ver el final, donde se ve que le lleva unos minutos recuperarse y salir del personaje.
Addendum to my previous comment: You won't be disappointed if you chose to board the Lara Fabian train. Here's a link to another song she provided the lyric: Broken Vow czcams.com/video/FNVR0yK8Ec8/video.html (covered by Josh Groban and Barbra Streisand (Lara's idol) and many more. I love her anecdotes prior to singing the songs "From Lara with Love" where you get glimpses of her thought processes and life.
Great analysis, thanks a lot, I guess a lot of vocal coaches "use" the videos from Lara's performances to show what they teach
MUCH MORE EMOTIONAL WITH LYRICS... YOU MISS MANY THINGS WITHOUT THEM...
SUBTITLED VERSION EASY TO FIND.
Thank you so much, but I think you missed the outtro that shows how deep she was in that role. In most cases, it makes sense to watch the video to the end.
I think, that you miss, the ending of that video, to see, one more efect of performance. She stay in song, few seconds, after ending...
Oh, you ended this video too soon by 15 to 20 seconds, it's the total climax to this song, it shows her almost ready to collapse because she put so much of her self emotionally into the song! "Broken Vow" should be your next song by Lara Fabian. From the same concert "Lara With Love" in 2000.
Bravo
Plus Totoro 😊
Haha another Totoro fan! 🙌
an other song you should react is Broken vow (by Lara)
Adagio Lara Fabian please!
🇨🇦 You should pay attention to the comment(s) from Eric Sicard below ! He will tell you about her songs and then about who sings her songs ! Then he will tell you about the Real Lara, and finally he will tell you about this specific song !
In theatre it's called "the Moment Before." I'd love to talk with you more about it. Would you consider a collaboration video?
one of my favourite reaction videos, very detailed and complete. Thank you. Could you make something like that for Beth Hart and Joe Bonamasa "I'd rather go blind"?
For yourself, you have to watch Lara Fabian - Je t'aime - Live in Paris 2001
Lara is special and there are few like her. Sohyang is another one, with many people including me think she is the best. Please check her out. It’s a big rabbit hole.
Shoot me in the face A four minute song and a seventeen minute video period I die here l o l
Comparing Lara to Celine is so ironic, because back in the day, they were "rivals" of sorts when Celine's executives (supposedly), made a huge effort to hamper Lara's career by contacting huge venues in the USA, and proclaiming that Celine would not book any venue that allowed Lara to book there.... From what I understand, Lara almost gave up her music career because she felt like she was running into wall after wall, and basically getting black-balled out of the US market, and Canada was obviously Celine's "turf", so the "Western market" was pretty much taken from her, or at very least severely reduced. In my opinion, Lara's musical talent is superior to Celine's, and had she not experienced so much "corruption", she probably would have been the "household name". Celine can sing, don't get me wrong, but Lara is a higher caliber.
I thought I have seen you reacting to this before. But as a vocal coach you surely know Dimash. And he is so good but he said that Lara was an inspiration (he is looking up to her)
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍🇰🇿
Will you please react to Lara Fabian & Mario Frangoulis cover of Cole Porters So in Love from Kiss Me Kate? I would love to see your thoughts. Mario also have an amazing voice and is classically trained and has a beautiful cover of Knights in White Satin in Italian!
