Thank you so much for this. Please, please, please react to a very young Dimash singing Ovo je balkan th-cam.com/video/YkFJfOuN5LA/w-d-xo.html Much love and a new subscriber from South Africa.
I really enjoy your reactions, and how you respect the artists, musicians, lyrics. It's a refreshing change from those who just sit there and say wow, or he's an alien. You add your thoughts and opinions and it's appreciated. Thanks for sharing your time and thoughts!
Thank you so much! It's people like you who make this even more enjoyable to do than it would be otherwise. The fact that you took the time to hear my opinions and comments is also greatly appreciated. Thank you for that! ❤❤❤
Једна од мојих омиљених песама. ❤❤❤❤❤❤. Страст, моћ, емоцију можете осетити једино на концерту, уживо. Не може се описати речима оно што се чује у његовим интерпретцијама. Димаш једнако музика. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nadam se da mi necete zameriti sto sam svratila na Vas kanal i pogleala video koji ste okacili. Vas handle mi je ukazao na to da ste mozda iz Kraljeva, a onda sam se dodatno iznenadila kad sam u opisu ispod videa saznala da ste profesor muzike. Cast mi je da poznavalac muzike poseti moj kanal i ostavi lep i promisljen komentar. I to na cirilici. ❤❤❤ Srdacan pozdrav Vama i Kraljevu! ❤❤❤
El instrumento es kobyz de origen muy antiguo kazajo, una belleza de sonido, y una gran gran actuación! Todo un espectáculo. Muchas gracias por tu análisis Aleks 🎻🇪🇸
Igor Krutoy does not hold himself back when he writes complex songs for Dimash, he knows that he will fulfill any of his ideas. But Dimash builds the structure of each song on his own, independently. Thank you for the reaction, Aleks. His current world tour is called Stranger
Thank you so much, Elena! Yes, you're right. I believe Olimpico showed that and so did Stranger. Obviously, Igor Krutoy is right not to hold back with a singer of Dimash's caliber.
He didn’t cover rap in this one, lol. But he does rap in a couple of other songs. And he doesn’t do the ‘goats trill’ which he does in Story Of One Sky and also Hello. But he certainly does sone AMAZING sounds in this song. Wonderful performance.
I guess I still have more surprises coming my way as I keep reacting to Dimash's music. 😂 I have to say I can't imagine what his rapping would sound like, but I guess I'll find out when I run into it.
Spectacular Dimash! His range here is evident. All his gestures and changes of register accompany the music and lyrics; great interpretation. For me it is like an epic and mystical movie accompanied by something similar to Gregorian chants. His costumes go perfectly with the atmosphere created. The Kazakh string instrument is the "kobyz", as I read it is sacred and shamanistic. He masters another traditional instrument called "dombra"...he comes out playing in some songs; if the other one is more similar to the cello, the dombra is more similar to the two-string "laud". As always, it is a pleasure to follow you in your reactions.
Yes on all counts! As always, the comments I come up with are often surpassed and you've done it again! Thank you also for the details on kobyz, sounds rather interesting and goes really well with the overall atmosphere of this performance. Thank you again so much for sticking with me - it is my pleasure.
Many say this could be the theme for refugees running from war torn countries. The 2 stringed ancient instrument is called Qobyz, played by Dimash's friend, Olzhas Kurmanbek. Igor Krutoy composed the music.
I didn't think of it that way, but as a former refugee I can relate to it. It's been a long time, so maybe I just prefer the fantasy world option over the real world. Wouldn't it be nice if that was the only viewpoint we needed on this one? Also, it was really respectful and polite of Dimash to introduce both Olzhas and Igor at the end.
@@AleksReacts Yes, fantasy would be much easier to handle than reality when it comes to many things. I'm glad you're safe. Dimash always thanks the others on stage, or introduces them. He is very appreciative of everyone from stage crew to audiences. Most stage crew & musicians are his friends, relatives, or his direct family.
Enjoyed your reaction so much! Yes, this video was epic, and the production quality was fantastic! Dimash should definitely be in a movie and sing his own title track!! 😁Thanks!❤️❤️❤️
Wow, this is the first Super Thanks I ever got, Linda! Thank you so much! ❤❤❤ You made my day right from its very start. Especially, since you were kind enough not to ask for anything in return. Therefore, it makes me wish to do something in return. 😊 This is the exact amount that would pay for two coffees in one of the cafés near me, so I thought it would be appropriate to invite you to an online coffee, if you're up for it. I did not plan for this, nor do I plan for it to be a regular thing, but this IS kind of a milestone for my channel. If you'd like that too, please email me and we can set up a time. Once again, thank you so much! ❤❤❤
For me this song could altso be anout entering a new phase in your life...unfamilliar territory in a sence.Altso reincarnation.Dimash is not your average Joe. Might be singing about his entering earth from the angelic realm ❤
It could be many things and that's the beauty of art - each person hears and interprets it in their own way. Your interpretations are both interesting and beautiful. ❤
Yes, it does. I don't think this song would work as well without it. Also, it's always a good thing to show the beautiful things in one's culture. Here, as you say, it fits perfectly. ❤
That is a noble aim. The cultures of the world are so varied and each one has its beauties. I applaud those who share the beauty of the culture they know, be it their own or one they got to know well or even one they simply appreciate. I think it adds to the colors of the world. 😊
My theory is that Dimash is an alien. A human can't possibly be singing like this 🤣. Seriously, he is crazy good, and I think the low notes is as low as I've heard so far. Loved your angle on this.
At the beginning in Stranger it sounds an old Turkic stringed instrument called Kobys. It is probably the oldest bowed stringed instrument in the world and it spread to became the prototype of all European string instruments as violin an chello. That and the use of the fa minor key in the composition gives the vibe of Middle East /oriental/ exotic sound. Think he´s singing to migrants in general: "New ground far as I can see, new ground underneath my feet, Stranger in a stranger land, new chance to see who I am if I have the strength to begin again" Reminds me also to the Old Testament; Exodus 2:22 Moses, “And she bore him a son, and he called his name Gershom [that is, A stranger there]; for he said, “I have been a stranger in a strange land.”
You have shared another interesting outlook on this song. Not being a religious person myself I could never catch that Old Testament reference, but it is a viable viewpoint. Just to be clear, I'm not an atheist, just an agnostic - I'm one of those undecided ones. 😉
@@AleksReacts I am not THAT religious but have good memory. When paying attention to the lyrics ithat part brought something to my mind and I didn´t stop thinking until i realised where was that from. The same happened to me with Bonney M´s "by the rivers of Babylon"
I can't believe you brought up Bonney M, I love that song. 😊 My memory is pretty good, but I haven't read religious texts, so there was nothing to prompt it. Still, I know what you mean - some songs do remind me of books I read.
@@AleksReacts I studied a bit the Bible, the Bhagavad Gita; some Coran and a little bit of other religioud texts when studied theology at university. Being a catholic mysel I am a believer but not a full time practicant and still a sinner. Hahaha
Wow, that is a lot, but I guess it goes with the territory if you're studying theology. I'm not commenting on the "sinner" part. I mean, in one of my today's comments I envied an 80-year old man for going to the beach, in those words. 😂
Dimash, Igor Krutoy (Conductor, composer and producer), Yerlan “Erlan” Bekchurin (arranger) and Olzhas Qurmanbeck (Master of playing the Qoobyz or “Kobyz”, which is a two-stringed bipolyphonic instrument of Kazakh origin, very sacred in Kazakhstan): The Magnificent Four! We also have lyrics by Sharon Vaughn (USA) and arrangements by Dimitri Kontopoulos (Greece) and Yerlan Bekchurin (Kazakhstan)!
Great reaction, Aleks 🙂 I agree with you, this performance (and a lot of his other performances as well tbh) feels almost more like a movie than a vocal performance. And that is of course indicative of his enormous capabilities as both a singer and a performer (read actor maybe ? ). It may already have happened, but if not, I'm absolutely sure that we will see him in a movie sometime. At the very least in a musical. He's got the voice and the looks, that's for sure 🙂 I love the fact that he presented and thanked Igor and the other man (his name is escaping me, but I know that he is very famous for his skills with that particular instrument (another word that eludes me right now 😁). Have a great weekend! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Thank you, dear Sharkster! ❤❤❤ I too was delighted with the respect he shows Igor Krutoy and (I Googled the name) Olzhas Qurmanbek. That is a mark of a properly brought up young man, who though already a star doesn't forget to thank his colleagues. I wouldn't be surprised if they made a movie based on this song, really. 😂 It would be worth it.
Thank you! Funnily enough, I don't speak Russian either, it's just that it's rather similar to Serbian and relatively easy to pick up simple sentences. If it got more complicated, I'd be flummoxed. 😂
Thank you @damenkusainova4432, @NancyHole and @dmanciocchi for suggesting this song! ❤

Димаш и Диана - они не с этой планеты!
Они звучат так, будто они не с этой планеты. 😊
Спасибо, очень нравятся ваши реакции, Димаша обожаю, жду еще реакций на любимого исполнителя. 😊❤❤❤
Спасибо! It is probably clear that I enjoy listening to him, so there will be more reactions. He certainly provides a lot of material. ❤❤❤

Aleks, thank you once again for your detailed analysis of this production from Dimash and Igor. What a performance!

Phil in Scotland
Thank you, Phil! Another one to really enjoy by Dimash and Igor. Kind regards to Scotland. ❤️❤️❤️

It was Dimash’s own idea to include the kobyz folk instrument - it fits perfectly ….
