@Rene_Moor3095 Ok t'es fan on peut le comprendre. Mais là non. C'est juste pas comparable. Il y a une différence entre Lara et une gamine qui gueule parce qu'elle sait gueuler. Il y a une différence entre gueuler et chanter avec de la puissance et de la sincérité. Chanter "fort" pour "imiter" c'est chanter sans âme.
I love this song. It always makes me cry. This song is often played on funerals here in Finland. It played in my big brothers and grandmothers funeral. ❤️
Lara is my favorite performer. such a telented vocalists that can speak and sing in many languages she masters the emotional vibes in every songs she performs.
Thank DiMarsh, for saying she is his ideal. That;s why she finally getting the recognition she deserves. I been following all the reactions,on youtube. They are saying, how come they never heard of her before. She is amazing.
@Rene_Moor3095 I've just listened to Dorota - but she doesn't persuates me. She is imitating Lara's way. For me Lara sings more emotionaly persuative (it is from her life experiance, not learned how). Her delivery is more non-active - true conveying). Like method acting/singing.
Isn't it funny how the music industry can shape our minds? While you say at times she sounds like Celine Dion most people around the world say Celine Dion sounds like her. Imagine that. Not that it matters, but I was one of those Americans who started listening to Lara in the 90's when yes she all but disappeared from the American Market. I was lucky enough to get my hands on her materials through someone who was stationed overseas. I loved her in the 90s and I can see why her Fame grew worldwide and Celine's camp probably did her a favor, because compared to the world America is a very small place. So Bravo to this wonderful talented woman who most definitely survived one of the deepest record label burials ever. ✌❤😎
Lara Fabian is one of less than a handfull of singers who are BEST WATCHED LIVE . She is the ultimate artist who paints with her incrdable voice, sculps each performance with heartfelt emotions, and not only relates the story which the composer intended with his words but somehow invites her audience to hoin her unto the kourney of that story. I attended Celine Dion's Las Vegas show 5 times and am a fan but5 as good as she is ... well, I will elevate her up to Lara's level when Celine both writes her songs and when she goes without auto-tune.
Talking about C.Dion and Lara is like talking about a killer and a victim. "Princess" Celine through her rich husband and his Sony Music blocked helpless Lara's career in USA and never seemed to regret for this brutality. Facing also a tragic love story Lara came close to suicide and was saved by the incredible love she received from her fans in her Paris2001 concert. Celine who? She doesn't exist for me
My cousin lives in Vegas and is a scratch golfer --- he played Celine's husband Renee several times and says he delighted in " taking that Ass-holes's money more than anyone else. "@@vasilisalphaalpha1399
I have a lot of respect for Celine but I enjoy Lara a lot more. Her tone, her delivery, her performance. So much better. Not that Americanised approach of performing.
fun fact : both of them were on the eurovision song contest in the same year ... 21 participants in 1988, swiss song won with celine, luxemburg got 4th place with lara, both songs in french, videos available on youtube, funny to see them 34 years ago :-) at the start or even before their careers
j'écoute Lara Fabian depuis de nombreuses années, et je ne connais aucune autre chanteuse capable de tenir une pareille note !! Sa force de chant est hors norme, l'interprétation de cette chanson qui est déjà à la base magnifique , transcende toutes les émotions de la mélodie. Lara est sans aucun doute l'une des plus belle voix internationale !
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 : Dame Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash, Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, … They made great covers but none of these match the storytelling amazing performance of Lara in this concert From Lara with Love. Her italian version is also amazing.
@@rosalieelliottofficial yes sure! This was done for this in fact. I tried to play piano in my childhood and the word Adagio was omnipresent in the musical scores 😃
@@ericsicard910 that makes sense :) I'm familiar with some of the music theory terms from my time in college, learning to play the violin as a child, etc, however I did not connect that to this song (in spite of the very obvious title), due to the lyrics.
@@rosalieelliottofficial What he said! Much of the finer things I know about Lara, I have read in past comments by Eric. Like you and I, he is also a fan of Faouzia, but unlike you and I, he will have an opportunity to see Lara live in concert very soon.
Lara reminds you of Celine Dion. Actually, Celine reminds me of Lara Fabian. Lara is the singer for me. Lara has that crystalline, soft yet powerful voice and she can emote like no other.
Exelente reaccíon!Obra maestra impresiónante de Lara Fabían,única y casi perfecta,sin comparacíon alguna!Lara Fabían,la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo,la voz de cristal mas bella y perfecta que existe!Gracías!
J'ai aimé la femme de 30 ans avec son intensité et ses performances vocales. J'ai aimé la femme de 40 ans avec sa volonté de découvrir de nombreux styles musicaux différents, toujours avec une voix fabuleuse. Et j'aime la femme de 50 ans qui a su préserver sa voix à force de travail, s'adapter à l'évolution de celle-ci tout en gardant ce petit côté enthousiaste et complice qui nous fait fondre. Je t'aimerai pour toujours et à jamais Même si tu commences à faire du rap
Do you know many performers that can sing in so many languages french englsi Italien, spanish etc . she is a very gifted performer one of the top ones.
This lady's vocal gymnastics and dexterity with her vocals trumps Celine by a mile! No shade to Celine but I haven't heard anyone be able to be that dextrous. Stunning Stunning Stunning!!!!
When Lara heard DIMASH perform Adagio, she was so impressed she wanted to do a duet with him. On his 24th birthday she sent a video of herself and a small one candle cake and sang happy birthday to him. Ti Amo Cosi performance was a chance for her and Dimash and Aida Garifulina the Vienna opera star to sing together and just watching Lara and DIMASH and the admiration they have for each other is priceless, plus the sound of their voices blending so well is worth the time to watch or react to. it's a different sound of DIMASH only bass baritone and the best operatic voice one could imagine, Pavarotti sorry sir. Ice skating show is moving performance also. DIMASH was offered a million dollar contract to join the Astana Opera in Kazakhstan, but turned it down as he is not about the money but to do his music his way, with all the genres available to him. In rehearsal for Ti Amo Cosi Aida a soprano jokes that if she lost her voice, DIMASH could sing both parts.
Well, it has always been Dimash‘s dream to sing with Lara, not the other way around 😉 I’m not saying that Lara didn’t want to sing with him, but the fact is that Dimash was the one dreaming about singing with her. He has always said that he is a big fan of Lara.
I missed the premier because of work, but enjoyed watching this. Adagio is my favorite Lara Fabian song, such hopeful longing. Thanks for sharing Rosalie!
WOW! I had a couple of her CD’s 1997 and I liked her but I think I had no understanding back then just how powerful of a singer she was. I am in a puddle of tears after that performance
Awesome stuff!!!! You now understand why Dimash adores Lara, in fact why all of us do. She is the best performing artist of the last 30 years. No one else is even close.
Thank you Rosalie for reacting to Lara singing Adagio. I love your reactions and have subscribed. She has said that the song is about her songwriting and not losing her inspiration. She imagines her muse as a man, and the song implores him not to leave her. Lara describes herself as a songwriter who sings. The greatest of understatements for one of the most beautiful voices ever. She is currently on tour and singing wonderfully, as she never stops practicing and developing her voice.
Hello,oui elle chante dans 12langues différente, français, anglais, italien, espagnol, portugais, allemand, russe, adzerbagian, grec, turc, hébreu, latin et parle 4 ou 5 couramment. La tu écoute des chansons des années 2000 ,mes lara chante encore à 52ans et fais toujours des concert et ce qui est incroyable ,c'est la même émotion en 2022 ,elle a mêle sorti des album récemment. Écoute maintenant la chanson, broken wov et you're not from here même concert Montréal 1999 et plu tard tu l'écoutera avec des chanson plu récente
Lara Fabian is fantastic and her songs go right to your soul. She got such an amazingly beautiful voice. Lara Fabian's songs are so emotional. I remember I got the cd in the states. I love her and wish I get to see her one day in concert.
If I was stranded on a desert island, and had one chance to be rescued, but I had to choose between Lara and Celine to sing me off the island, I would choose Lara every time. Both great singers, but the warmth and emotion that Lara brings to every performance, can not be matched by Celine in my opinion.
Dimash version is alas mostly a show of his vocal abilities which are great but I need more than that from an artist. In fact becoming a Story Singer on stage is to me the most important. Caring and forwarding emotions to an audience while posting a theatrical and artistic display provide a new dimension to the human being that each of us is. In short , ok Dimash as a well oiled vocal machine but flying Lara’s world on stage, Anytime and Encore.
Another sparkling performance from Lara Fabian. Small note, Celine Dion is one of the best performers in the world, but she NEVER gives us emotions like Lara Fabian. Her stage presence, her body language, the emotions she conveys when she sings are INCOMPARABLE. You should listen to MADEMOISELLE HYDE (SOCHI 2016) WITH IGOR KRUTOY, A DELICE. On the other hand, listen to REQUIEM POUR UN FOU with rocker Johnny Halliday, you will discover a completely different Lara Fabian. She is so versatile. Thank you from Montreal.
@@rosalieelliottofficial Thank you, Rosalie, for your engaging reactions to the amazing Lara. I agree with Pierre that REQUIEM POUR UN FOU, sung "en plein air" and in the rain no less, with French rock icon Johnny Hallyday would be an excellent and very different performance to react to next. Most reviewers don't understand the story told by this powerful song, but you certainly could, which would help your followers appreciate it even more.
I don't know that Lara was stifled. She is a vocalist, songwriter, sings in several languages. She resonates with a more global audience. By contrast, Celine is not a songwriter. She is strictly a vocalist. She has songs written FOR her. She is amazing, don't get me wrong, but she's been crafted for US audiences. Celine is marketable. I don't think they knew how to market Lara. I LOVED her from the moment I heard I Will Love Again, but I never heard anything else from her on American airwaves. I hunted her stuff down and I have loved her ever since. Immortelle is a favorite, and I am still floored by Je Suis Malade. And I'm not a lover of French. Lara's path was meant for beyond the US and I'm glad she has that success. The US music market tends to chew artists up. Both women are successful in their own right, just in different ways
@@rosalieelliottofficial Celine Dion is very good and has a great voice, but honestly she doesn't give me warmth and emotions. I like warm voices best, and Lara for me has both the warmth and the emotion that I feel naturally. I take this opportunity and thank you for your reactions, I like them very much. ☺
She is very much respected by Dimash. I just love her. She can be glad that she didn't end up in the hands of the Illuminati like Celine. At least I hope so. Wonderful performance
That last breath in the end gets me every time. Fantastic vocals. Please react to her live performance of Caruso from the same concert. Incredible vocals and story telling. Link: th-cam.com/video/zYZWbzEmWY0/w-d-xo.html
I agree with you, but the link you gave has a very bad video quality. The Channel Macadamia has most Lara videos in fantastic quality, „Caruso“: th-cam.com/video/BP2KnLemT78/w-d-xo.html
I really love her emotions when singing. Very touching ...Interesting waiting for the reaction of the Dimash version of Adagio. Thank you for your reaction 💖
Geat reaction and great performance. My favorite version of this song is a cover by Floor Jansen (Dutch) performed during Covid in her husbands studio located in Sweden (Ithink in the horse barn). Floor is known as a metal singer (Nightwish from Finland). She can sing in many genres and her fans beleive she is the most versatile singer in the world.
Adagio I don't know where to find you I don't know how to reach you I hear your voice in the wind I feel you under my skin Within my heart and my soul I wait for you Adagio All of these nights without you All of my dreams surround you I see and I touch your face I fall into your embrace When the time is right, I know You'll be in my arms Adagio I close my eyes and I find a way No need for me to pray I've walked so far I've fought so hard Nothing more to explain I know all that remains Is a piano that plays If you know where to find me If you know how to reach me Before this light fades away Before I run out of faith Be the only man to say That you'll hear my heart That you'll give your life Forever you'll stay Don't let this light fade away No No No No No Don't let me run out of faith Be the only man to say That you believe, Make me believe You won't let go Adagio songtexte
In my humble opinion lot of Fabian as far and above Celine Dion. She makes her look like a stepchild LOL just like David Phelps is the greatest male voice on planet Earth. Thanks for your reaction. More please
Diana Navarro is a very versatile singer. She sings different musical styles with that particular voice of hers. This time I recommend you live " .CUPLERIAS GALA DE LOS PREMIOS CERES" by Diana Navarro. Best regards .
Thank You for your beautifull and emotional reaction. Please Could You react to "Requiem pour un fou" You remain amazing about it, I'm sure, and you don't forget Lara forever...
Another great reaction I just love watching how the performance just moves you there is a reason that Dimash holds Lara in such high regard she is a complete performer and in my opinion could have given Celine more than a run for her money and thats why her people got scared of her coming this way. I am so glad you are doing all of this music it some of my favorite music to listen to again and again. Cant wait for the next one you go girl and keepbeing you no matter what your doing great.
This concert is great but it is quite old. She continues to record and perform in her 50s now. You should really check out some of the more recent stuff.
Can't wait until you react to Dimash's version. Both artists are amazing. You can also react to "Ti Amo Cosi", where both of them are singing with Aida Garifulina, beautiful performance of all three of them.
There is a newer live version of this song & I like it better. I have read some of the comments about sound. I don't know why but several weeks ago I started having to turn my sound on my laptop up to 100 & sometimes I can barely hear the songs. I noticed it especially with you reactors--you are loud enough at 90 but I can hardly hear the singer. I used to be able to hear at around 60. For Dimash, I hardly hear his breathy starts but do have to turn it down to 62 when he starts belting. It only happens on TH-cam. I hear fine when playing my games. Can hardly wait for your reaction to Dimash singing Adagio--I did not like the song when I first heard it on Singer. There are certain notes he hits that make his voice sound like he's straining(not a full, hard sound). He gives an A+++ performance, as usual. Someone in the comments commented on this too, saying it's because he's using his mixed voice and they recommend his New Wave performance.
Thank you for clarifying the differences between Apples & Oranges - Pears & Papayas... 'Good Music is Good Music,' no matter the genre! Even our perception of the artist's emotions can be received differently throughout our time here and our journey's path. What a wonderful gift Lara is to all of us who choose to be warmed and engaged by her offerings. I will state, without any reservations, that I have not heard many who can move me as much and as easily as Lara Fabian. I will not get into my disdain for the music industry, as I feel it unconscionable to withhold a joy, such as Lara from anyone! It must take a whole group of bast**ds to collude and partake in such a deviant endeavour! But for the positives..... only a few singers/vocalists posses the seemingly endless selection of tools Lara has. Further, Lara is not afraid to boldly embody the physical traits of some emotions with many are dauntingly afraid of. To some, this represents a weakness to be suppressed - to Lara, it is a necessity which must be shared. This, I also feel, is what drives music and its interpretations to ever higher levels. Selfishly, I can only wish for more time to enjoy Lara Fabian's gifts and commend you for bringing them to the forefront, for all to enjoy. Bravo,... may you continue to be blessed and have many more insights to offer...
Rosalie, at a Céline concert, one feels like one in a sea of thousands; at Lara's, she is singing to you. And, frankly, I can't see how anyone can confuse the deeper, richer tones of Lara with Céline's rather nasal delivery. Keep up the good work, but you should check your audio levels. They are a bit low.
Agreed. I do see differences in their voice, but there are moments were Lara does something vocally that strongly reminds me of Celine (not from an emotional standpoint, but the sound. Select moments however not overall). you make a good point about the deeper tones versus nasal. Regarding sound, would you be so kind and tell me what device you used to listen? When I listen on my computer and my mobile device, the sound sounds fine on my end. I’ve had a couple other people express audio issues, And I’m trying to narrow down the cause, Since I made detailed changes for the audio in this recent video and I’m not sure why it’s still not loud enough for some but most don’t express the same problem. Trying to refine as I go :-) thank you for the feedback
@@rosalieelliottofficial I simply watch TH-cam on my 4K TV. I'm not in the least bit technical, but the sound is a bit low. Thanks for explaining your thoughts. P.S. I suggest Broken Vow as your next Lara review. See the list I posted.
Lara’s rendition is the best and will never be equaled. But I would like to introduce you to a 4 male crossover harmony group callrd “ Forestella” from South Korea. When they performed their first song ( the Freddy Mercury classic“ Bohemian Rhapsody”) it catapulted them to international stardom and they now have millions of followers worldwide. They were all at one time solo performers. One has a very deep bass/baritone voice. Another, a high operatic voice, and the other two group members (who were also solo performers at one time) combine to render “je suis malade” a confluence of absolute total passion and performed live on stage in front of thousands of fans. I thought no one would ever come close to Lara’s soulful rendition. And no one vocalist will. But when you have 4 members and the best vocal harmony group in the world, well. ( all I can say is have your Kleenex handy) Some of their other songs I recommend are Simon & Garfunkel classic “The Sound Of Silence”, Guardian “ Angel” that will lift your spirits and transport you to another world-especially during these troubled covid times. And the hauntingly beautiful “ hijo de la luna” But “ Le Suis” remains my all time favorite. I’ve watched it 5 times and each and every time it moves me to my depths. All love from Miami Beach , Florida, Al
This video of Lara was actually filmed in 1999, not in 2009 and it was broadcast in 2000. She was 29 years old during this performance not 39 which she would have been in 2009.
Lara Fabian is just pure talent. I absolutely love her and her performances. Adagio has been sung in different versions and languages. I think it'd be interesting to maybe combine a reaction to many versions, idk if it's feasible. The Arabic version done by Majida El Roumi is also very heart touching Majida has an amazing voice.
I have seen this version before, and its a great version to compare with Dimash's version, from the 2017 Chinese show (I am a singer). Dimash uses a lot of her highs and lows, copying her belts timing wise. When she sings that "No, No, No, No" towards the end, Dimash emulates the same feeling / emotion. Looking forward to your reaction of Dimash's version.
Since you're on an Adagio binge, please also check out Floor Jansen's rendition. I'm not going to go into the debate of which one is 'better', since that's futile and impossible to determine, but Floor's version is at least worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.
I love love love Dimash but as far as covers go I feel that Adagio is the only song that the origional singer's performance is better. I think it may have something to do with the fact that he sang it in the same key, which meant that he had to sing a lot of it in mixed voice since he is....well, a man. I prefer his performance of Adagio at New Wave in Sochi to the Singer one that everyone always watches. I think it is much better to do a comparison of Lara and Dimash's versions of Mademoiselle Hyde.
Lara Fabián es de la escuela de las cantantes italianas de los 60s y 70s y su voz es parecida a Gigliola Cinquetti que es muy cálida,no se asemeja en nada a la voz metálica de la Céline.
I know you probably won’t see this but I want to thank you my best friend just overdosed last year and I’m just now processing it and if ima be honest you the only reason I’m alive and it would mean a lot if you reacted to “Love Is A Drug” by Papithbk R.I.P Gavinn😪💯
deberias reaccionar a lara cantando con jony haliday en requiem pour le fou u y un cpmentario persona, tenes dos de las cualidades que mas aprecio en una mujer sos inteligente en tus comentariois y tenes gran sentido del humor.. que mas pedir.solo ona pequeña cosa. jajaja ,si podrias hablar un poquito mas pausadp
With the artist that I have reviewed that you have already done how about a treat for yourself and do an artist Beth Hart doing "am I the one "live at Paradiso you will truly be taken in if you want more background I'll be happy to share much of my actual experience with you about many artist that I have worked with over the last 40 plus years 😊
This version is the Standard because Lara co-wrote the lyrics ! Both Celine and Lara are 🇨🇦 and live in Montreal, but Lara is far more talented ! Lara is a Classically trained Soprano !
The campaign by Celine Dion supporters against Lara was absolutely vicious and protracted and was profoundly painful and damaging to her- both personally and professionally . Even though a lot of water passed under this bridge since, this is why many of Lara's fans really arc up whenever anyone makes comparisons between them. They both trained in much the same style, particularly re the power ballad genre and so have some similar presentations, projection mechanisms, onsets and ornamentations that were very much of that time, but I beg to differ about the timbre. Their voices are very distinct. Also Lara's diverse cultural background and focus in Europe has led her to develop her artistry across a number of languages and broaden to different genres. I'm not suggesting you are doing this... but I, and many others, really dislike people comparing or applying some self generated rating system- which seems to be a popular thing amongst some US Reactors. It's profoundly disrespectful to both artists involved, who should be judged purely on their own merits and compared only against their own developmental milestones as they progress in their careers. In terms of 'grace under fire' Lara has been nothing but courteous and complimentary about Celine's talent and career, both then and now. Many professional singers have commented on Lara's performances being Master Classes in technique and nuanced 'word painting' etc., and so it's lovely to see her generously moving into mentoring and teaching other emerging artists in recent years, and enjoying it so much. 😊👍
Thank you very much for this detailed and informative comment. This is interesting and helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to share this and will integrate this into future reactions if that’s alright with you.
I Like your reaction, Rosalie! My only feedback is that you should look into how to deliver better audio of the performer/song. It sounds very hollow on my end, so it is not so enjoyable to listen to. Best of luck to you in your endeavor.!
Thank you for the constructive criticism. I apologize about the less than ideal audio. I’ve since worked on making improvements. Purchasing an audio software etc. I hope you find the audio in my latest videos better :) thank you for your kind comment.
She's perfect. There is no one even close. ❤
The Queen Of Resonance and the master of vowel coordination. She is The Ring.
@Rene_Moor3095 Ok t'es fan on peut le comprendre. Mais là non. C'est juste pas comparable. Il y a une différence entre Lara et une gamine qui gueule parce qu'elle sait gueuler. Il y a une différence entre gueuler et chanter avec de la puissance et de la sincérité.
Chanter "fort" pour "imiter" c'est chanter sans âme.

@Rene_Moor3095 I've just listened to Dorota - but she doesn't persuates me. She is imitating Lara's way. For me Lara sings more emotionaly persuative (it is from her life experiance, not learned how). Her delivery is more non-active - true conveying). Like method acting/singing.
Isn't it funny how the music industry can shape our minds? While you say at times she sounds like Celine Dion most people around the world say Celine Dion sounds like her. Imagine that.

So Bravo to this wonderful talented woman who most definitely survived one of the deepest record label burials ever. ✌❤😎
No one can convey emotions like that with such a voice and soul when singing. Neither Dion nor anyone else. Lara is a phenomenon for me.
Lara Fabian is one of less than a handfull of singers who are BEST WATCHED LIVE . She is the ultimate artist who paints with her incrdable voice, sculps each performance with heartfelt emotions, and not only relates the story which the composer intended with his words but somehow invites her audience to hoin her unto the kourney of that story.

Her diction !
I have a lot of respect for Celine but I enjoy Lara a lot more. Her tone, her delivery, her performance. So much better. Not that Americanised approach of performing.
Yes, can't ever understand how anyone confuses the nasal tones of Céline with the richer, deeper tone of Lara.
@@pacscanadadatabaseservices3711 totally agree. There is a hard edge to Celine's voice which is so different to the warm full tone of Lara's.
Celine, who? Oh the “singer”…

@@Anson_AKB Céline was already a star in Quebec before Eurovision. For Lara, it was very much her first real exposure.
Lara is amazing
For me, Perdere L'amore is the most emotional (and beautiful ) of Lara's songs in Italian
This concert "From Lara with Love" is insane and reference concert as well.
she is the best...thanks for the reaction

J'ai aimé la femme de 40 ans avec sa volonté de découvrir de nombreux styles musicaux différents, toujours avec une voix fabuleuse.
Et j'aime la femme de 50 ans qui a su préserver sa voix à force de travail, s'adapter à l'évolution de celle-ci tout en gardant ce petit côté enthousiaste et complice qui nous fait fondre.
Je t'aimerai pour toujours et à jamais
Même si tu commences à faire du rap
Do you know many performers that can sing in so many languages french englsi Italien, spanish etc . she is a very gifted performer one of the top ones.
This lady's vocal gymnastics and dexterity with her vocals trumps Celine by a mile! No shade to Celine but I haven't heard anyone be able to be that dextrous. Stunning Stunning Stunning!!!!
Je T'aime Paris 2001 is a must watch performance...the most emotional performance ever!
When Lara heard DIMASH perform Adagio, she was so impressed she wanted to do a duet with him. On his 24th birthday she sent a video of herself and a small one candle cake and sang happy birthday to him. Ti Amo Cosi performance was a chance for her and Dimash and Aida Garifulina the Vienna opera star to sing together and just watching Lara and DIMASH and the admiration they have for each other is priceless, plus the sound of their voices blending so well is worth the time to watch or react to. it's a different sound of DIMASH only bass baritone and the best operatic voice one could imagine, Pavarotti sorry sir. Ice skating show is moving performance also. DIMASH was offered a million dollar contract to join the Astana Opera in Kazakhstan, but turned it down as he is not about the money but to do his music his way, with all the genres available to him. In rehearsal for Ti Amo Cosi Aida a soprano jokes that if she lost her voice, DIMASH could sing both parts.
Well, it has always been Dimash‘s dream to sing with Lara, not the other way around 😉
I’m not saying that Lara didn’t want to sing with him, but the fact is that Dimash was the one dreaming about singing with her.
He has always said that he is a big fan of Lara.
I missed the premier because of work, but enjoyed watching this. Adagio is my favorite Lara Fabian song, such hopeful longing.
Thanks for sharing Rosalie!
WOW! I had a couple of her CD’s 1997 and I liked her but I think I had no understanding back then just how powerful of a singer she was. I am in a puddle of tears after that performance
Wow! amazing and talented Lara.
You have to listen to "Broken Vow" and "You are not from Here" from the same concert...unbelievable.
Awesome stuff!!!! You now understand why Dimash adores Lara, in fact why all of us do. She is the best performing artist of the last 30 years. No one else is even close.
Totally agree.
Thank you Rosalie for reacting to Lara singing Adagio. I love your reactions and have subscribed.
She has said that the song is about her songwriting and not losing her inspiration. She imagines her muse as a man, and the song implores him not to leave her. Lara describes herself as a songwriter who sings. The greatest of understatements for one of the most beautiful voices ever. She is currently on tour and singing wonderfully, as she never stops practicing and developing her voice.
thank you very much! :) Interesting meaning of the song. Thank you for sharing :)
Love your reaction. First time watching you. Lara is Master Class.
Thank you very much :)
Hello,oui elle chante dans 12langues différente, français, anglais, italien, espagnol, portugais, allemand, russe, adzerbagian, grec, turc, hébreu, latin et parle 4 ou 5 couramment.
La tu écoute des chansons des années 2000 ,mes lara chante encore à 52ans et fais toujours des concert et ce qui est incroyable ,c'est la même émotion en 2022 ,elle a mêle sorti des album récemment.
Écoute maintenant la chanson, broken wov et you're not from here même concert Montréal 1999 et plu tard tu l'écoutera avec des chanson plu récente
Lara Fabian is fantastic and her songs go right to your soul. She got such an amazingly beautiful voice. Lara Fabian's songs are so emotional. I remember I got the cd in the states. I love her and wish I get to see her one day in concert.
Great reaction. Ty!! Perdere l'amore is another amazing song to react to.
If I was stranded on a desert island, and had one chance to be rescued, but I had to choose between Lara and Celine to sing me off the island, I would choose Lara every time. Both great singers, but the warmth and emotion that Lara brings to every performance, can not be matched by Celine in my opinion.
c' 'etait magnifique ! .........
I am from holland ilove celine and lara but lara singswith emotions golden hart ❤
Dimash's version is powerful but Lara's is hauntingly beautiful
well said! :)
Dimash is nothing - nothing at all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MERAVIGLIOSA MUSICA ITALIANA DEL GRANDE TOMMASO ALBINONI
Siga reaccionando a Lara Fabian!! 👏
Dimash version is alas mostly a show of his vocal abilities which are great but I need more than that from an artist. In fact becoming a Story Singer on stage is to me the most important. Caring and forwarding emotions to an audience while posting a theatrical and artistic display provide a new dimension to the human being that each of us is.
In short , ok Dimash as a well oiled vocal machine but flying Lara’s world on stage, Anytime and Encore.
I can’t agree more. I almost stopped following him because of that. He made crap out of Adagio unlike his SOS…
Another sparkling performance from Lara Fabian. Small note, Celine Dion is one of the best performers in the world, but she NEVER gives us emotions like Lara Fabian. Her stage presence, her body language, the emotions she conveys when she sings are INCOMPARABLE. You should listen to MADEMOISELLE HYDE (SOCHI 2016) WITH IGOR KRUTOY, A DELICE. On the other hand, listen to REQUIEM POUR UN FOU with rocker Johnny Halliday, you will discover a completely different Lara Fabian. She is so versatile. Thank you from Montreal.
I have to agree with that. Valid point. Thank you also for the suggestions :)
@@rosalieelliottofficial Thank you, Rosalie, for your engaging reactions to the amazing Lara. I agree with Pierre that REQUIEM POUR UN FOU, sung "en plein air" and in the rain no less, with French rock icon Johnny Hallyday would be an excellent and very different performance to react to next. Most reviewers don't understand the story told by this powerful song, but you certainly could, which would help your followers appreciate it even more.
@@danbrayon FYI: Hallyday.
@@danbrayon thank you for the kind comment and suggestion confirmation. I will look into it :)
I don't know that Lara was stifled. She is a vocalist, songwriter, sings in several languages. She resonates with a more global audience. By contrast, Celine is not a songwriter. She is strictly a vocalist. She has songs written FOR her. She is amazing, don't get me wrong, but she's been crafted for US audiences. Celine is marketable. I don't think they knew how to market Lara. I LOVED her from the moment I heard I Will Love Again, but I never heard anything else from her on American airwaves. I hunted her stuff down and I have loved her ever since. Immortelle is a favorite, and I am still floored by Je Suis Malade. And I'm not a lover of French. Lara's path was meant for beyond the US and I'm glad she has that success. The US music market tends to chew artists up. Both women are successful in their own right, just in different ways
From 1 to 10, I like Celine Dion 5, while I give Lara Fabian a 10+.
interesting. thank you for that assessment. smart way to expressing it using number scale. any particular reason why?
@@rosalieelliottofficial
Celine Dion is very good and has a great voice, but honestly she doesn't give me warmth and emotions.
I like warm voices best, and Lara for me has both the warmth and the emotion that I feel naturally.
I take this opportunity and thank you for your reactions, I like them very much. ☺
She is very much respected by Dimash. I just love her. She can be glad that she didn't end up in the hands of the Illuminati like Celine. At least I hope so. Wonderful performance
That last breath in the end gets me every time. Fantastic vocals. Please react to her live performance of Caruso from the same concert. Incredible vocals and story telling. Link: th-cam.com/video/zYZWbzEmWY0/w-d-xo.html
I agree with you, but the link you gave has a very bad video quality. The Channel Macadamia has most Lara videos in fantastic quality, „Caruso“: th-cam.com/video/BP2KnLemT78/w-d-xo.html
Adagio is an italian term of classic music, an indication of slow mouvement
I really love her emotions when singing. Very touching ...Interesting waiting for the reaction of the Dimash version of Adagio. Thank you for your reaction 💖
The RING very well earned and owned
Comparison is fun but very much the thief of joy. Two amazing singers are better than one wearing the crown 👑 of best.
valid point!! :)
Geat reaction and great performance. My favorite version of this song is a cover by Floor Jansen (Dutch) performed during Covid in her husbands studio located in Sweden (Ithink in the horse barn). Floor is known as a metal singer (Nightwish from Finland). She can sing in many genres and her fans beleive she is the most versatile singer in the world.
I'm from Belgium too
Adagio
I don't know where to find you
I don't know how to reach you
I hear your voice in the wind
I feel you under my skin
Within my heart and my soul
I wait for you
Adagio
All of these nights without you
All of my dreams surround you
I see and I touch your face
I fall into your embrace
When the time is right, I know
You'll be in my arms
Adagio
I close my eyes and I find a way
No need for me to pray
I've walked so far
I've fought so hard
Nothing more to explain
I know all that remains
Is a piano that plays
If you know where to find me
If you know how to reach me
Before this light fades away
Before I run out of faith
Be the only man to say
That you'll hear my heart
That you'll give your life
Forever you'll stay
Don't let this light fade away
No No No No No
Don't let me run out of faith
Be the only man to say
That you believe,
Make me believe
You won't let go
Adagio

Amazing! Best version!
Great reaction BTW 💜
CARUSO in Italian! 🤯🤯
You need to watch « Broken vow » from Lara Fabian……you will love it too!
In my humble opinion lot of Fabian as far and above Celine Dion. She makes her look like a stepchild LOL just like David Phelps is the greatest male voice on planet Earth. Thanks for your reaction. More please
Fun Fact:
Lara was only 29 years old in this concert and was at the height of her vocal power.
Damash is just tecnic
Lara is the feeling
Please do not compares
🔥💯👍👍👍👍👍💯🔥🤗
Diana Navarro is a very versatile singer. She sings different musical styles with that particular voice of hers. This time I recommend you live " .CUPLERIAS GALA DE LOS PREMIOS CERES" by Diana Navarro. Best regards .
Watch voice of Poland calling you. Get tissues ready.
I am looking forward to your reaction to Dimash's cover which I believe to be one of the most spectacular vocal performances ever.
Thank You for your beautifull and emotional reaction. Please Could You react to "Requiem pour un fou" You remain amazing about it, I'm sure, and you don't forget Lara forever...
I will add it to my list :) thank you for the suggestion
Another great reaction I just love watching how the performance just moves you there is a reason that Dimash holds Lara in such high regard she is a complete performer and in my opinion could have given Celine more than a run for her money and thats why her people got scared of her coming this way. I am so glad you are doing all of this music it some of my favorite music to listen to again and again. Cant wait for the next one you go girl and keepbeing you no matter what your doing great.
It was like ok Celine you can have America, I will have Europe, OK.
Haha yes exactly.
Dimash chante très bien ok, mais Lara c'est un autre monde, elle est la plus grande chanteuse de tous les temps, cette femme est un pur miracle🪄🫶
This concert is great but it is quite old. She continues to record and perform in her 50s now. You should really check out some of the more recent stuff.
Can't wait until you react to Dimash's version. Both artists are amazing. You can also react to "Ti Amo Cosi", where both of them are singing with Aida Garifulina, beautiful performance of all three of them.
Dimash version is …well , not a story telling stuff just barely an instrumental piece of low resonance.
You should react to floor jansens cover of this as well =D
Lara Fabian wrote the lyrics for this song.
There is a newer live version of this song & I like it better. I have read some of the comments about sound. I don't know why but several weeks ago I started having to turn my sound on my laptop up to 100 & sometimes I can barely hear the songs. I noticed it especially with you reactors--you are loud enough at 90 but I can hardly hear the singer. I used to be able to hear at around 60. For Dimash, I hardly hear his breathy starts but do have to turn it down to 62 when he starts belting. It only happens on TH-cam. I hear fine when playing my games. Can hardly wait for your reaction to Dimash singing Adagio--I did not like the song when I first heard it on Singer. There are certain notes he hits that make his voice sound like he's straining(not a full, hard sound). He gives an A+++ performance, as usual. Someone in the comments commented on this too, saying it's because he's using his mixed voice and they recommend his New Wave performance.
Floor Jansen from Nightwish sang this Song too
Thank you for clarifying the differences between Apples & Oranges - Pears & Papayas... 'Good Music is Good Music,' no matter the genre! Even our perception of the artist's emotions can be received differently throughout our time here and our journey's path. What a wonderful gift Lara is to all of us who choose to be warmed and engaged by her offerings. I will state, without any reservations, that I have not heard many who can move me as much and as easily as Lara Fabian.
I will not get into my disdain for the music industry, as I feel it unconscionable to withhold a joy, such as Lara from anyone! It must take a whole group of bast**ds to collude and partake in such a deviant endeavour!
But for the positives..... only a few singers/vocalists posses the seemingly endless selection of tools Lara has. Further, Lara is not afraid to boldly embody the physical traits of some emotions with many are dauntingly afraid of. To some, this represents a weakness to be suppressed - to Lara, it is a necessity which must be shared.
This, I also feel, is what drives music and its interpretations to ever higher levels.
Selfishly, I can only wish for more time to enjoy Lara Fabian's gifts and commend you for bringing them to the forefront, for all to enjoy.
Bravo,... may you continue to be blessed and have many more insights to offer...
Rosalie, at a Céline concert, one feels like one in a sea of thousands; at Lara's, she is singing to you. And, frankly, I can't see how anyone can confuse the deeper, richer tones of Lara with Céline's rather nasal delivery. Keep up the good work, but you should check your audio levels. They are a bit low.
Agreed. I do see differences in their voice, but there are moments were Lara does something vocally that strongly reminds me of Celine (not from an emotional standpoint, but the sound. Select moments however not overall). you make a good point about the deeper tones versus nasal. Regarding sound, would you be so kind and tell me what device you used to listen? When I listen on my computer and my mobile device, the sound sounds fine on my end. I’ve had a couple other people express audio issues, And I’m trying to narrow down the cause, Since I made detailed changes for the audio in this recent video and I’m not sure why it’s still not loud enough for some but most don’t express the same problem. Trying to refine as I go :-) thank you for the feedback
@@rosalieelliottofficial I simply watch TH-cam on my 4K TV. I'm not in the least bit technical, but the sound is a bit low. Thanks for explaining your thoughts. P.S. I suggest Broken Vow as your next Lara review. See the list I posted.
Agreed 150%
Hiba Tawaji - La bidayi wala nihayi (Live at Batroun 2014) / هبه طوجي - لا بداية ولا نهاية
Lara’s rendition is the best and will never be equaled.
But I would like to introduce you to a 4 male crossover harmony group callrd “ Forestella” from South Korea. When they performed their first song ( the Freddy Mercury classic“ Bohemian Rhapsody”) it catapulted them to international stardom and they now have millions of followers worldwide. They were all at one time solo performers. One has a very deep bass/baritone voice. Another, a high operatic voice, and the other two group members (who were also solo performers at one time) combine to render “je suis malade” a confluence of absolute total passion and performed live on stage in front of thousands of fans. I thought no one would ever come close to Lara’s soulful rendition. And no one vocalist will. But when you have 4 members and the best vocal harmony group in the world, well. ( all I can say is have your Kleenex handy)
Some of their other songs I recommend are Simon & Garfunkel classic “The Sound Of Silence”, Guardian “ Angel” that will lift your spirits and transport you to another world-especially during these troubled covid times.
And the hauntingly beautiful “ hijo de la luna”
But “ Le Suis” remains my all time favorite. I’ve watched it 5 times and each and every time it moves me to my depths.
All love from Miami Beach , Florida,
Al
This video of Lara was actually filmed in 1999, not in 2009 and it was broadcast in 2000. She was 29
years old during this performance not 39 which she would have been in 2009.
Lara Fabian is just pure talent. I absolutely love her and her performances. Adagio has been sung in different versions and languages. I think it'd be interesting to maybe combine a reaction to many versions, idk if it's feasible. The Arabic version done by Majida El Roumi is also very heart touching Majida has an amazing voice.
oh i like that idea!! thank you for the suggestion :)
I cant find you on audea - can you post audio versions of your videos there? i would love to listen to them! thanks again for the awesome content!
Questo brano é la versione moderna di Adagio in sol minore di Tomaso Albinoni musicista italiano del 1700
Lara is amazing..but Who is Celine Dion? 😉 Thank you for reacting to this wonderful artist and performer. You can only love her ❤️
:D haha
I have seen this version before, and its a great version to compare with Dimash's version, from the 2017 Chinese show (I am a singer). Dimash uses a lot of her highs and lows, copying her belts timing wise. When she sings that "No, No, No, No" towards the end, Dimash emulates the same feeling / emotion. Looking forward to your reaction of Dimash's version.
Since you're on an Adagio binge, please also check out Floor Jansen's rendition. I'm not going to go into the debate of which one is 'better', since that's futile and impossible to determine, but Floor's version is at least worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.
Floor’s version runs out of steam in the middle as she doesn’t have the technical abilities to get there unhurt.
0:10 / 7:27
GUADALUPE MANENT/ GARGANTA CON ARENA/ (Adriana Camaño)
Celine Dion is an incredible singer, but Lara Fabian can sing the alphabet and make you cry.
if you like French songs you should react to "requiem pour un fou" by Johnny Hallyday and Lara Fabian, I'm sure it won't leave you indifferent!!
I love love love Dimash but as far as covers go I feel that Adagio is the only song that the origional singer's performance is better. I think it may have something to do with the fact that he sang it in the same key, which meant that he had to sing a lot of it in mixed voice since he is....well, a man. I prefer his performance of Adagio at New Wave in Sochi to the Singer one that everyone always watches. I think it is much better to do a comparison of Lara and Dimash's versions of Mademoiselle Hyde.
Lara Fabián es de la escuela de las cantantes italianas de los 60s y 70s y su voz es parecida a Gigliola Cinquetti que es muy cálida,no se asemeja en nada a la voz metálica de la Céline.
Adagio Dimsh :)
Since you will react to Dimash version I also suggest comparing "Know" and "Mademoiselle Hyde"
Guter Einstieg, um DIMASH´s Version von "Adagio" zu genießen. Lasse Dich überraschen.
Con todo respeto la versión de Lara es mil veces mejor...
@@Memo-vn3nu i agree with you.
I know you probably won’t see this but I want to thank you my best friend just overdosed last year and I’m just now processing it and if ima be honest you the only reason I’m alive and it would mean a lot if you reacted to “Love Is A Drug” by Papithbk R.I.P Gavinn😪💯

With the artist that I have reviewed that you have already done how about a treat for yourself and do an artist Beth Hart doing "am I the one "live at Paradiso you will truly be taken in if you want more background I'll be happy to share much of my actual experience with you about many artist that I have worked with over the last 40 plus years 😊
This version is the Standard because Lara co-wrote the lyrics !
Both Celine and Lara are 🇨🇦 and live in Montreal, but Lara is far more talented !
Lara is a Classically trained Soprano !
The campaign by Celine Dion supporters against Lara was absolutely vicious and protracted and was profoundly painful and damaging to her- both personally and professionally . Even though a lot of water passed under this bridge since, this is why many of Lara's fans really arc up whenever anyone makes comparisons between them. They both trained in much the same style, particularly re the power ballad genre and so have some similar presentations, projection mechanisms, onsets and ornamentations that were very much of that time, but I beg to differ about the timbre. Their voices are very distinct. Also Lara's diverse cultural background and focus in Europe has led her to develop her artistry across a number of languages and broaden to different genres.
I'm not suggesting you are doing this... but I, and many others, really dislike people comparing or applying some self generated rating system- which seems to be a popular thing amongst some US Reactors. It's profoundly disrespectful to both artists involved, who should be judged purely on their own merits and compared only against their own developmental milestones as they progress in their careers. In terms of 'grace under fire' Lara has been nothing but courteous and complimentary about Celine's talent and career, both then and now.
Many professional singers have commented on Lara's performances being Master Classes in technique and nuanced 'word painting' etc., and so it's lovely to see her generously moving into mentoring and teaching other emerging artists in recent years, and enjoying it so much. 😊👍
Thank you very much for this detailed and informative comment. This is interesting and helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to share this and will integrate this into future reactions if that’s alright with you.
@@rosalieelliottofficial Yes
This performance is more like 1999 not 2009
I Like your reaction, Rosalie! My only feedback is that you should look into how to deliver better audio of the performer/song. It sounds very hollow on my end, so it is not so enjoyable to listen to. Best of luck to you in your endeavor.!
Thank you for the constructive criticism. I apologize about the less than ideal audio. I’ve since worked on making improvements. Purchasing an audio software etc. I hope you find the audio in my latest videos better :) thank you for your kind comment.
