For the record, comparing her to Barbara Streisand is legitimate in my view Both are unique talents, both have power, both have great technique and, in the end, both are phenomenal artists and not just great singers.
Adagio is an italian word, that means "Slowly". This is also used in music to define the pace of a music (a bit slow, between lento and andante) and also as a name of a piece of a sonate, concerto or symphony that is using that specific pace. The music from this song of Lara Fabian is a pop translation of an italian classic piece called "Albinoni's Adagio". It was written in 1958 by Remo Giazotto who was an admirer of Albinoni, a musician from the 17th/18th century. He claimed it was from him and give his music this name but there is consensus today that he most probably has composed it himself. The classic music piece is globally famous and was translated into a pop song for Lara. She wrote lyrics in english and italian for it and is the original performer. She kept the title Adagio and wrote a story with a double meaning: a woman that is awaiting to find her love / an artist that is awaiting the god of inspiration. This song has become a classic and has been covered by many : Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash (Lara is his absolute idol and he covered several of her songs), Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, Anastasia Luna, … They made great covers but none of these match the amazing storytelling performance of Lara, or her ability to use vocal subtleties to be in sync with the music, exposed in her live from the concert From Lara with Love. czcams.com/video/bqoS-KOLV_4/video.html Her italian version is also amazing. You can check her recent rendition in Paris early october 2022 czcams.com/video/LC5NLaU6x2I/video.html
Hey Alan love yout reactions. I will assure Lara would be very pleased to be compared to Barbara as she idolized her. Would love to see you do some more Lara. There are many great Lara songs you havn't reviewed. One in particular is Love By Grace live from the Canadian Juno Music awards show which I'm sure you'll love. Others are Curuso, You're Not From Here, and a pop song she did which was on the US Billboard top 100 for 10 months but it wasn't the type of music-related wanted to do. So,she went back to Europe and became world famous. She has sold over 33 million records world wide. The pop/ dance song was called I Will Love Again.
Good morning Terry , I have every intention of going back to Lara, I’m actually circling back to Artists that are on the Chanel who need to be revisited over the next 3 months 😊 I’ve noted the songs you discuss and see where I land 😎 thank you and fyi the next 3 weeks is definitely going to see more Lara 😊😎👍
I am forever greatful that the american musicindustri did't destroy Lara Fabian by making her to somekind of popqueen. Thank you for reacting to this wonderful performer and woman.
Thanks for the great reaction. Always a pleasure to hear your reactions to Lara. She has a great voice and knows how to use all her being to transmit emotion. Here is a rduet with Johnny Halliday "requiem pour un fou.. very dramatic, ouside, rain, 60000 fans in stadium, huge orchestra and choir, betwwen rock, religious, musicals, theatrical.... Yet another face of Lara... czcams.com/video/zR1rkt_0biA/video.html.... worth googling lyrics to get into the song before viewing. Enjoy.
Vincent 😊 wow thank you , I’ve saved the Link , yes I will Google the lyrics .. and I look forward to sharing how I see / hear this .. thank you my friend 😎👍
@@alan-reacts65 Hello there! You don't have to research the lyrics, allow me to give you the link of that masterpiece that has the English subs. Oh, another minor correction, it was 80.000 fans who attended to that concert at the Stade de France in a pouring rain, including myself. It was one of the greatest concerts of my life. Here's the link, enjoy! czcams.com/video/zR1rkt_0biA/video.html
@@snoflysse8844 thanks for the correction. Even better. Still good to read the lyrics before. It allows to concentrate less on subtitles and understand a bit the background of the story/song. Hearing Alan's Yentl reaction and all his knowledge on Barbra,, I think he would appreciate to read about the song without watching of course not to spoil the reaction 🙂
@@alan-reacts65 here is already some background... translated from Wikipedia : Requiem pour un fou tells the story of a man who, refusing to lose her, killed his wife, while pretending to love her (as, very often, the perpetrators of femicide). Surrounded by the police at the scene of the murder, under the beams of the spotlights, he harangues the crowd gathered in search of the outcome. The madman knows that death will come with the dawn...
You rightly said she would definitey be able to sing rock songs. Many recommended you Requiem pour un fou, legendary duet masterpiece in an rock opera. Definitely a must react. But there is also this song To love again czcams.com/video/en9haGSdEUA/video.html where you can see her singing in the middle of 2 electric guitarists.
Thank you Eric , I have to say a special thank you , too , you personally and a big thank you to all the Lara Fans .. I can’t believe just how generous and genuinely happy 😃 you all are just to share 😊😎👍
Hello, content que tu continue à réagir encore à lara fabian, tu sera jamais déçu par lara ,elle chante toute cest chanson avec autant d'émotion. Lara est l'idole de dimash,ce qui prouve que lara est unique . Tu aime dimash et lara, sache qu'il ont chanter 1 chanson ensemble en live ,cette chanson s'appelle ti amor cosi live 2019. Tu as entendu chanter lara en anglais et français. Écoute caruso en italien ,quedate en espagnol,c'est le même concert que la chanson que tu jiens écouter. Lara chante dans 12 langues différente, français, anglais, italien, espagnol, portugais, allemand, russe, adzerbagian, grec, turc, hébreu et latin
Thanks for your reaction. For more "rock" performance, refers to REQUIEM POUR UN FOU, duet with Johnny Hallyday. The story of a man, fool of love, who killed his lover to always keep her through time.
Dirk Voorspoels 1 second ago Lara is indeed not the only greatest singer, but Lara is the most underrated singer of her time in the row of the greatest singers of that time like Barbara, Celine, Whitney, Mariah and others.....But whit her emotional performances she is one of the greatest. Lara's breaktrough in the VS is ruined by the team around Celine Dion. Her beautiful strong velvety voice is the best whit a piano or a guitar, just a few pop singers can manipulate there voice like Lara. Lara also sings opera aria Traviata Movie: for AI from Steven Spielberg the song "for always" Movie: love team for ""Final fantasy"", the song "" the dream within"" Movie: "The hunchback of the Notre Dame"", the song ""God save the outcast "" and the voice of Esmeralda in "Quebec French"" czcams.com/video/jAb5Lkl5InY/video.html czcams.com/video/vRZqrcl4OHE/video.html And so much more......
Dirk , Thank you for such amazing insight and Information, I’ve saved the video links and over the coming year I will indulge ( gladly ) in more Lara, at what I hope will be the right times .. i tend to go to a song / artist ( mostly ) when I’m in that mood ..
Never heard this song before until Floor Jansen covered this one. Who's better? Both ladies did a great job so "the better one" is pure personal (let's keep it on 50/50). Everybody happy I would say.
For the record, comparing her to Barbara Streisand is legitimate in my view Both are unique talents, both have power, both have great technique and, in the end, both are phenomenal artists and not just great singers.
Thank you Phil , that’s all my intention was 😊👍😎
Lara was a fixture on the EuroPop Rock chart’s. Lots of guitar solo’s in the music she releases. I ❤️ her.
Lara is the greatest performer in the world. Nobody is on her level yet.
Love Lara ❤
Love from Denmark ❤
My first time watching you. Great reaction video. Laura is Master Class. Always like seeing how Lara mesmerizes and captivates.
She’s a master class in stage presence and vocals becoming one thing 😊😎👍
Many great singers sing for a huge audience..Lara Fabian sings directly for you...
That’s how I felt 😊
Ultimate diva... rien a dire de plus.

Lara is indeed not the only greatest singer, but Lara is the most underrated singer of her time in the row of the greatest singers of that time like Barbara, Celine, Whitney, Mariah and others.....But whit her emotional performances she is one of the greatest.
Lara's breaktrough in the VS is ruined by the team around Celine Dion.
Her beautiful strong velvety voice is the best whit a piano or a guitar, just a few pop singers can manipulate there voice like Lara.
Lara also sings opera aria Traviata
Movie: for AI from Steven Spielberg the song "for always"
Movie: love team for ""Final fantasy"", the song "" the dream within""
Movie: "The hunchback of the Notre Dame"", the song ""God save the outcast "" and the voice of Esmeralda in "Quebec French""

👍👍👍from New Zealand: Dimash & Lara Fabian also Harry Mack fan have you done a reaction to H. Mack? (Guerilla bars 25)
Oooh ! No Kura I haven’t ! But I will go find it , save it and react my friend 😊👍 thank you so much 😊 👍
Questo brano é la versione moderna di Adagio in sol minore di Tomaso Albinoni musicista italiano del 1700. Si può trovare su CZcams
Never heard this song before until Floor Jansen covered this one. Who's better? Both ladies did a great job so "the better one" is pure personal (let's keep it on 50/50). Everybody happy I would say.
50/50 is as it should be my friend .,,,,
Rick you said rock? Go watch what she did live with Johnny Halliday (French rock star) in « requiem pour un fou » even tho it s not my fav from Lara.
I will 😊👍 I’ve saved the link ( sent to me ) thank you Francis 👍
I will live again: it s the pop-dance title you may be looking for, from the same era: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Will_Love_Again
Thank you 😊
