The next video should be The Show Must Go On Stick to the plan of following The Singer and we will let you know when to skip a performance, mainly Uptown Funk. With his 3rd week on the Singer he learned how to sing in English the Queen song in a week so his English is rough, but it's still amazing, Brian May loved it. In my opinion do the next 2 videos in order from the Singer. What I love about that show is everything is top level from the orchestra to the sound and the stage, even the camera angles they take is excellent. That would mean video 3 is The Show Must Go On followed by video and episode of the Singer is Autumn Strong. After those 4 videos I say break away from The Singer for Sinful Passion, then Olympico/Ogna Pietro, then Unforgettable Day/Gakko
Uptown Funk shows the fun side of him I liked that it showed he was more versatile and it showed his interaction with the crowd which i think makes him the perfect performer (just my opinion)
@@jessicasopranonotes Everyone has their opinion. Imho you'd better not skip everything after Episode 4, because you'd miss some fabulous performances: Adagio (Episode 6, Dimash won first place) Daididau (Episode 7, you'll see him playing dombra, the backstory is important, you may see it from Gloria Wu's channel. She has also good subtitles, but she alters the videos to avoid copyright, so you may use both the original video and hers). Daybreak (Episode 8, please, check out the backstory from Gloria Wu, he was very sick that day and people will tell you to do the Bastau concert version, but imo you may do both versions, I love the Singer version very much). All By Myself (Episode 9, a supreme Seline Dion's version) Unforgettable Day (Episode 10, his own composition, you may combine it with the famous Gakku version with D8 ) Confessa + The Diva Dance (Episode 12, you may combine this with the Bastau version of "The Diva Dance" and the duet with Li Yugang "Drunken Concubine+The Diva Dance". These are 3 versions of the song of the alien from the movie "The Fifth Element". They are short, they can be done together). Give Me Love (Episode 14, you may do this song from the Bastau concert instead, it's a huge concert and the performance is amazing).
Good strategy, don't forget to include Hello, Marigolds, Mademoiselles Hyde, Love Is Like A Dream. Please do all of Dimash at your convenience. Thanks for your reaction.
@@jessicasopranonotes The order and songs that I would recommend is: Olimpico (Ogni Pietra), Sinful Passion, GAKKU concert for Unforgettable Day, Daybreak, Adagio, Autumn Strong, Samaltau, and finally Across Endless Dimensions.
For some reason I love watching trained singers of all genres having to scramble to pick up their jaws from the floor. Dimash is a mix of unquestionable talent and incredible devotion to voice and technique training. Bravo!
I have been watching the reactions to Dimash for 3 years and you are the only one who noticed the change in the music and the expression on Dimash's face at the beginning. You are very considerate.👍👍👍
If you are an operatic singer, you would enjoy Ogni peitra, Diva dance, Ti amo Cosi. There is a moment in his song "Unforgettable day" which will blow your mind.
This song was a good choice for the competition for a couple of reasons. The judges of the competition are the people in the audience, who vote for their favorite performances of the evening. The original song by Vitas had been popular in China when it came out, and the audience knew that Vitas only modulated once, so they were really impressed by what Dimash did. He won the episode. The audience members being the judges also might come into play in regards to the songs Dimash sang in English, which he learned phonetically. This is evident in the next song, "The Show Must Go On", but I wonder how many of the audience would notice that his pronunciation wasn't perfect anyway.
Dimash is the best singer in the WORLD and there are no doubts about that, his voice is a prodigy of nature and a genetic marvel since his parents are two glories of singing from Kazakhstan since he was 5 years old, he sings publicly and has more than twenty years of lyrical training and graduated from the university of music, he is a singer, composer, arranger and multi instrumentalist, he plays more than seven musical instruments and sings in more than nine languages, he is also a great performer and a great artist who lives and feels music He is not an imitator of voices , Dimash has his own style and is one of the forerunners of the "Popera" he also has a very pleasant, Humble and simple personality, easy access, which makes it very easy to follow, he always travels with His family and friends is a very educated person and an example to follow, he has become known for his musical talent not for getting into trouble or scandals, he is a singer with a wide vocal range very versatile is Baritone, Tenor, Soprano, against Tenor, mezasoprano, everything at the same time is how to have 5 singers in one, it has a male and female voice, also many resources such as vibrato, "melismas", falsetto, Staccato,whistle tone, reaching a D8 live at the concert of Gakku in an unforgettable day, at his young age he continues to improve and grow musically to perfection, he has a good physical presence he measures 191 cm or 6 "3", he is very famous and recognized in Asia and now he is becoming known In Europe and America, ALL their songs are spectacular, it always goes from low to high, soft to spectacular at the end, in my almost half a century of life I never heard so much quality and it is the hope of continuity of the classical genre because all the old tenors have already Almost all of them died and Dimash can sing like them but none of them can sing like Dimash, being a Man he sings better than any Tenor and his female voice is superior to that of any average Soprano, greetings and a hug from Venezuela🇻🇪, "Dears" Forever ❤️👍🏻 Sorry for copying and pasting my informative comment in ALL the Video reactions to Dimash what I see but I do it with the intention of sharing information about him and what I think that in the music industry there are many artists who have been successful and have no talent and are bad people and they do not set a good example for the youth, Dimash and his music deserve to triumph in America, Europe and the whole WORLD, do you want to have already read my comment please come by without problem there is always someone who for the first time knows this information and I won't get tired of sharing it with all my friends. Dear around the world, thanks for reading and for supporting Dimash❤️
@@jessicasopranonotes 😂🤣😂🤣😂 Darling believe me, you are not ready for this roller coaster ride. Dimash is absolutely stunning and mind blowing. Every single time...
So just how cheeky this guy is, high ass notes 1, "you think that's it?", proceeds to go higher, "you think that's all i got?", higher, "this is me bitch!". Thats what I saw at the end.
@@Jane.S600 Thanks Jane! I wouldn't knock someone down for singing an English song when it isn't their first language. It's one of the hardest languages to grasp.
Really love and appreciate your comments and responses. Dimash in 20 20 was 26, so a lot of maturing and further development to enjoy as u progress thru his work. U asked what else can he do - emotion and deep connection with the story of the lyrics, and playing with the music. I'm looking forward to following your development thru his work. I expect I know by now, he sung from a very young age, singing at 3 and performing from 5. His parents, both singers identified his interest and allowed and provided pertinent experiences. He has trained and reached high qualifications in many genres. He sings in 12 languages and speaks 3. He plays at least 7 instrument, composes and writes. At present he is studying for his doctorate. On too of all that - he is THE most genuine humble human being, involved in charity, gives a large part if his income to good works and his purpose in life is to bring people together in peace and love. He says he is just a normal guy, like everyone else, who gets angry etc. But his gifts to the world will be hugg and mostly unknown. If you've not already done so, look him up in wikipedia. Look 4wrad to your next session with him. 🥂
Omg he sounds like the most perfect human being 😍 Would absolutely love to meet him! And so impressive he started at such a young age! His dedication has most definitely paid off!
You never fail to bring your musical intellect and experience, and your Opera 2 reaction was no exception. What you did today for us was bring just a little bit extra of that Soprano Notes groove which made it even more fun to watch. Thanks a bunch - love what you do!
I really enjoyed your reaction. It is good to hear the opinion of someone who knows what singing is and sees details that others overlook. I will follow your reactions with interest. Greetings to all Dears.
This song was composed and performed by a Russian named Vitas. When Vitas did this song there was only on major key change. Dimash not only met that but went up three times. Another fact, Vitas sued Dimash for singing this without his permission the only known outcome of that lawsuit was Dimash is never to perform this again. I tend to think Vitas felt intimidated by how well outdid him, and rightly so. Welcome the World of Dimash
so happy to have found you. Finally a reactor that has something insightful and intelligent to say. Dimash also sings a lot with hands.... he seems to paint the notes.
He does the whistle when he sings as well. The video to hear that is from New Drunken Concubine/Diva Dance. You should check that out because you will love it.
Thank you for this analysis! 🖤 His head moves in those superhigh falsetto notes because of the resonance it creates in his head (and he always removes his earpieces). I think you would really love 'Ogni Pietra'. It's in Italian and it's full on opera. It was specially written for Dimash, because; he can sing both the male and the female parts. 🖤
@@jessicasopranonotes It's Igor Krutoy that writes most of his songs! Igor wrote songs for Lara Fabian as well (Adagio as an example). Dimash has done covers of many Lara songs, with Igor Krutoy by his side playing the piano. He is a HUGE Lara fan. :)
Dude 2 year late but solid reaction videos. Even though i know nothing it sounds like you do. ur input and appreciation of not just the singer but the gorgeous instrumentals earned you a sub thank you I hope there's more reaction to catch up on 😊
Really appreciate how you comment on the whole musical piece and composition -- it's really a lesson in music appreciation. Most reactors only talk about Dimash's voice and don't point out all these interesting things about arrangement, tempo, transitions, pick up notes etc. Thank you!!
Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice!=)))) Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice.=))))))) I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years.
I agree, most haunting voice ever. I keep imagining her singing a tragic character in a truly deep animated movie. Like a super sad masterpiece like Grave of the Fireflies.
Love your insight and analysis. I've watched this performance and reactions to this so many times but never noticed some of the things you pointed out.
I love your expertise and I do thorougly enjoy your explanations, not only about Dimash's vocals, but also about the composition and arrangement. Keep reacting and analyzing this way. I wish that the next video would be Sinful Passion, a firework of vocal styles some of which you haven't seen yet, and also an excellent display of his baritone register.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️So honest, professional, detailed and funny commentary, all mixed together, great! I'm so happy that another great opera singer has known Dimash and has been Dimashefied. Greetings from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 The country of Antonín Dvořák and his 'Rusalka' 😉
I don't think the order really matters except for observing the maturation of his voice as compared to his more recent performances. There is not a bad Dimash performance. If you want to hear how he sounds today a good performance is Your Love or I Miss You. But since you are an opera singer you would most likely want to hear Ogni Pietra/Olimpico, Te Amo Cosi, and Ulysse.
@Ar Zinzin I did not watch your linked reference. I am losing you in translation with my limited ability to read French. I would say that I also speak for myself. There are many songs Dimash has sung which are not my favorite. That said, in my humble opinion, I have never heard him perform anything poorly in spite of the song. He could make Mary Had a Little Lamb sound like a work of art.
@Ar Zinzin I could do that, yes. But I don't speak French. There is a world of difference between reading French with a single year of High School French and several years of Latin and Spanish and comprehending spoken conversational French. I will take some time and try to get through the closed captioning.
@Ar Zinzin The link took me to what appeared to be a 50 minute documentary opening with a very beautiful French woman speaking in French in what appeared to be an interview. I immediately decided I did not have time to listen to a 50 minute interview conducted in a language I do not speak. My French class took place 50 years ago. I was initially confused as to why you were calling me, Barbara, a marvelous musician until after doing some further Googling I finally figured out you were talking about a famous French singer named Barbara. My apologies the only famous singer named Barbara I was aware before now spells it Barbra who is also a marvelous singer. I will take some time to listen to some of Barbara's songs. Thank you for educating me. And I hope you can understand that even when people are speaking in the same language they can misunderstand one another in online written messages.
I've heard this song like a thousand times already n never noticed about drums at the second part. Thank y for that. Please, more reactions more often! Sscrbed
Excellent analysis, Miss Gorgeous! Thanks for commenting also on the composition. I would suggest you react next to Sinful passion, I would like your comment on his vocal fry, I am confident you'll be, again stunned. Thanks for considering it. A big hug to you from Greece!
You are a breath of fresh air! So wonderful to hear your insights and professional critique. Dimash will surprise you every time with his vocal talent, versatility and stage presence. Too many amazing performances to mention but you should check out Love is like a Dream, Your love, Daybreak @ Bastau, Samaltau, Diva dance @ Bastau, Sinful passion @ Sochi, Passione, Know, Qaragym-ai (2020 version)... I could go on. Look forward to more reactions. Greetings from Australia
OMG T.T ... I learned more from your reaction/analysis than any other reactors. I look forward to watching your analysis on his other performances. Next up should be the 3rd episode where he sings The Show Must Go On by Queen: th-cam.com/video/ul3kpE1qcow/w-d-xo.html Please note, that his native language is Kazakh, and his second language is Russian, he speaks 0 English at the time. But he'll be the first one to admit that he needs to improve on his English, it's gotten a lot better now. Even dared to do an interview without a translator on an English interview late last year (you have no idea how proud we were when he did that:D) Urgghh, this is too much... did you know, his fans just finished watching his exclusive online show a couple of hours ago? many of us are still rewatching it. I actually paused it halfway to watch this. And then he'll be appearing in another online gala less than 48 hours from now... This is Dimash overload LOL... You're not the only one who's not ready. Even his fans are not ready with what he brings to the table. I'm still shocked, and I've watched more than 70+ of his songs... I'm really not ready T.T ... Btw, personally, I don't mind what order you'll go through. You'll eventually end up reacting to all of them :D. I can't imagine being in your shoes and refraining myself to only watch his performances in order. OMG, I'd definitely want to see his current works. I wouldn't mind if you did. Either way, I'd watch your reactions anyway. It's great!
@@jessicasopranonotes I'm so glad you asked, I need to pour out my feelings somewhere LOL... "Shocking" is the word I'd use. He performed new songs and used so many different styles that we seldom or never heard him use before. I literally had my jaw dropping several times. And the older songs he somehow made them feel fresh. The only complaint I had was I wished it was longer and truly live (it's a prerecorded exclusive show)... nonstop 17 songs, 90 minutes. Wish he had a chance to give a speech, but it seems they decided that jamming in all the songs they could give was the right way to go. And I'm certainly grateful for that, it was amazing! Well, actually, you haven't missed out on anything yet (except the live chat on the premiere hahaha). They just announced a couple of weeks ago that the tickets can still be purchased until the 23rd, and with one ticket you could watch the show for unlimited times until the 23rd. (it was previously 1 ticket for 1-time streaming) And the upcoming gala is a non-partisan online gala held by the Sister Cities International in celebration of the inauguration. It's open to all for free. All you need to do is register on their web sistercities.org/sci-presidential-inauguration/ We don't know what song(s?) Dimash will perform yet. I don't know how this will affect your reaction if you sign up to any of these events. But I think it'll be fine. Your videos aren't just reactions, their analysis. It's fine to analyse the things you've watched to before (just opt out the word reaction, and make sure to give a disclaimer that you've heard the song before) Many good analysers do that too. And tbh, 17 songs is a small percentage of his repertoire (and you've already done SOS which he performed in this online show). You'd still have many materials to go through. And most of his performances are different anyway that you'd sometime have to react to the same song twice :D...
@@NTHTVal Oh wow it sounds like you really enjoyed watching the performance! I can see why they decided to only do songs; especially considering they had 17 of them on the program. That's quite a concert! I agree with you. I don't mind doing reactions to performances I've seen already and I can most definitely give that disclaimer. Plus, like you mentioned, every performance is different and I could very easily have different things to say about 2 different performances of the same song! Thank you so much for sharing that link! I haven't decided if I'll tune in yet, but if I do I'm grateful you sent me the link. SO happy you got to see his performance! 🤗
One of the best reactions of Opera 2!!! Cheers to you! You will be stunned by Dimash again and again! If you consider to react to other singers, please consider including Diana Ankudinova, I am very interested in your opinion on her voice. Love to you!
Excellent analysis, thank you. I love how you covered more that just his voice which is stunning enough, but also the tension between the piano & voice in the verses and the tempo changes.
@@jessicasopranonotes Supposedly Dimash was prevented from performing this again by Vitas who was upset that he did three step ups rather than his original one. Vitas is a fantastic performer, underrated outside of Russia and the Far East. He is always superbly dressed or in elaborate costumes. In the original video for Opera#2 th-cam.com/video/8-qZD6XHVCA/w-d-xo.html he appears as a mermaid struggling to be amongst people - the scene in the bath tub surely an influence on the 2017 film “The Shape of Water” (yes I know that had “The Monster from the Black Lagoon” with legs rather than a traditional mermaid/merman with a fin). Also enjoy video for “Lucia Di Lammermoor”(Fifth Element song) th-cam.com/video/Kg0wZkABMn8/w-d-xo.html and lavish video for “La Donna E Mobile” th-cam.com/video/xPOWF_Ts7rg/w-d-xo.html . Vitas has been "accused" of lip syncing all his live performances of Opera No.2 such as this th-cam.com/video/ZSenveV5QP4/w-d-xo.html but I think we're less bothered by such issues now if for large stadium performances provided it is their original voice and not edited up in pitch. I'm not sure if sound systems can sync well enough what the performer hears and then the audience to hear a time-synced music & voice ? In some later performances Vitas tried to demonstrate he was not lip syncing by moving the microphone back and forth th-cam.com/video/wOmyRx56MEg/w-d-xo.html but the uneducated arm-chair “experts” questioned whether this just not well practiced too. I suppose one might wonder whether this is really the same music backing track each time, but of course one can sing live to a music track. Most recently this live performance from 2010 th-cam.com/video/-msZPsY1YWI/w-d-xo.html where he goes even higher, such as shame the sound quality is rather muffled. Whatever the truth of lip-syncing, I agree Opera No.2 is similar to S.O.S d'un terrien en détresse in being an incredible piece of imagination by their composers and courage of the singers to perform this live. Dimash had been unwell for a while when he wowed us all with his S.O.S d'un terrien en détresse and was supposedly a little disappointed... as I stop coughing to catching my breath at this, I have to say personally I think it’s his best - latter versions in larger auditoriums didn’t have the intimacy that I felt from the Chinese TV company’s production with a very slick band/orchestra.
Dimash is amazing, and i really appreciate your analysis, i'm excited waiting mainly Sinful Passion and Diva Dance, good job girl with this reaction, really with context and quality
@@jessicasopranonotes I loved your reaction!! I'm from Argentina too. There are many Dears and a Dimash fan club in my country. I'm subscribed to your channel and I'm waiting more reactions to this golden boy. Don't forget to listen to his Adagio. It's epic.
Jess, as great as it is to have my first chance to listen to Dimash, and he is fabulous, I have to say I am blown away having the chance to listen to you dissect the music, the song, and the singer! You are a joy to listen to, and every time I get to hear one of your reactions my IQ is actually raised by 5 - 10 points! You are the best there is at what you do, and we are fortunate to have the chance to listen to you!!
Just like your So Hyang react, I love that you are analyzing the composition and his interaction with it at a level that is completely unique to the dozens of vocal coaches who have covered this performance. It's very rare to learn something about the most popular performances of both artists but you are batting 1.000 on this front and I am very happy to be subscribed to your channel. Hoping you make your way back to So Hyang as well!
Hi, if you go in order when the time of "Diva dance" ( the one from the movie 5th element )chose the one from the Bastau live concert it is far better than the one he made in that competition. Stay safe
@@jessicasopranonotes Please don't skip the performance of Diva Dance here - it is combined with a most dramatic and only once in his lifetime performed italian song (Confessa), the performance is incredible! And so is the ending of Diva Dance - most spectacular! 🙏❤️
Just fell down the Dimash rabbit hole about 7 hours ago..... It blew my mind. Opera 2 was the first one I saw, so this was the one i started on, and I about died. and I was so built up by seeing that, I believe I watched it 4 or 5 times in a row before moving on to anything else. unfathomable. truly. and because I had all of that built up emotion from watching it, (neither my children nor husband understand that gut emotional feeling that comes from hearing this, but maybe some here understand)... that when I moved on to the 2nd video I saw of his, the one that you reacted to first, 'D'un terrien en detresse', I was in tears. I loved how you said, "if he goes any higher..." having seen it before, I was like, oh yes... just wait... lol I have listened to and watched videos of his for hours now, and found him on spotify, and started to watch reactions. I had my youngest and husband listen to it to explain why I was over here, with headphones on, probably looking exactly like you in this video.... but they didn''t get it. I am not sure how people can't feel that, idk. weird. they didn't react the way that I thought they should. maybe not knowing how exceptional it is... so I decided to look up reactions from people who do have and understand that level. after 15 videos of vocal coaches, dj, singers, etc.... you were the first and only person to pause but give a comprehensive comment on it. most just paused and gave opinions or very loose info on what is happening, like "he is using his head voice"... a very broad statement. You gave incredibly good info at a level that people who do not know much about music would be able to understand. that in itself is not easy, yet you did it without script. I will have to go find your stuff now cause you clearly have a very knowledgably background and beautiful voice.
Perfect reaction.. With Dimash you will never be ready. All his songs will surprise you even more. That's why we Dears love and support our KING all the way. You will soon be a Dear too and will be stucked with him. Not only is he incredible but also a very humble person. We love him with this down-to-earth attitude. Loves his family dearly, loves children a lot, does so many charity work. He is the perfect human being this world needs. Trust me, you'll be getting more subscribers from the Dears because of this one man. He has changed my perspective on life. Greetings from Indonesia. Thank you 🙏
Really did love your remarks and knowledge, knowing that you are becoming a dear, that is what he calls those you enjoy him and his music. You will learn more of him I am sure by those who comment, just for your info, his grandmother keep him till he was 10 which is a custom in his country, although mother and dad also were very active in his entire up bringing, she sang opera as does his mother and dad sings but not opera. He started piano at 3 and began taking lesson at that age and has been learning ever since. He has one doctorate in music and I believe study for his composition or another doctorate. You have just scratched the surface of listening to his abilities. You will enjoy. His control and not even to mention his stage performances are the best you will ever see, he lets his movement speak loudly the emotions in the songs and all the lighting and musicians and the whole performance is as good as it gets. Enjoy, the last man shown in that video is his dad, who surprised him by being there in China for that performance, they live in Republic of Kazakhstan, use to be part of Russia, and he speaks Russian and several other languages, and has been studying English and the main Chinese language, Mandarin.
The older gentleman, you see in the shadows a couple of times, is his father. HIs dad surprised him during this competition. He didn't know his dad had come to hear him perform.
new to you, great reaction. The man with the red vest is his father. As you progress in his life as he ages and perfects his stage presence, and his looks and charm ( he is 6'3 but looks small in these first videos) his connection to his audience and fans you will appreciate even more his dedication to his craft. He is loving, kind, adores his family and homeland. He is today 27 so 5 years have passed since The Singer competition. Hope you enjoy the ride. If you get time try to watch a couple of interviews.
Great reaction! I really enjoy your reactions,I find them so informative. I know that even if you didn't enjoy the song cos its not what you enjoy listening to,you would be honest & appreciate the technicalities of the performance anyhow. There is nothing worse than someone giving bad feedback just because they dont like the artist or its not a genre they'd normally listen & you're watching them speak & actually wondering if they've actually just seen the same performance you have.This is why I like watching reactionsl from people that are involved in/with music professionally as they tend to give honest & informative feedback. I love people reacting to dimash because its as if they all start off thinking " he blew me away last time but i'm totally prepared for him this time" but as we all find out as some point,it doesn't matter how many of his performances we see,dimas has the ability to shock use again & again. Nothing to do with dimash as such but I always think of these 2 together, a little reminder to react to 'arirang alone' by sohyang, from the 'immortal songs' series. Thankyou & keep those reactions coming
Loved reading your comment Linzi. I too, think it's important to be able to communicate what is going on in a performance in a constructive way whether the voice teacher likes the song or not. It's educational on both ends. In my opinion at least. And you got it, I have that written down on my list 💛
Wow yeah Dimash is just unbelievable! It's so interesting to listen to your analysis! After you finish with the videos from this show, I suggest you to listen to his songs in Italian, "Ogni pietra", "Ti amo così", "Ulisse" and "Passione"... I think it'll be interesting to hear what you think about his voice slightly changing when singing in other languages!! Edit: for "Ogni Pietra/Olimpico" I highly recommend the video from WorldSkills Kazan 2019... I think it's his most epic performance of all time
@@jessicasopranonotes Thank you soooo much beautiful!!! Could you possibly react to "Remember When by Alan Jackson" for me? That would mean so much to me!!! 🥺🥺🤗🤗
New subscriber here 😊 Love your analytics on these videos, I can't remember which video is next, still got some more in the contest yet for sure, maybe Adagio or Hello? I am sure some of the other dears will know the order, but I really look forward to you listening and analysing his more recent work. Omni Pietra is one I look forward to you reacting to, due to it being very operatic.
Video three is _______________(decanted) as in aged and ready to be consumed here. As in this congregant is ready for 'de Cantor to Dimash it! I love your analysis videos as they provide the perfect balance of technical insight for 'de masses and fandom when warranted. When you pause the performance you take the time to cover major points while still minimizing total interruptions. While I've enjoyed all kinds of reaction videos as a means of validating my own post performance emotions against a global community, your analysis focuses on key points I might (or might not) get listening to 8 other channels (including national voice teachers) per performance. You do this EXTREMELY well. Seeing some of your bloopers I became more aware of the time commitment, editing and overall production demands delivering so much more than a chorus of passive watchers united only in a process that turns other people's performances into selfie spotlights. Dimash receives and deserves more than that as you acknowledged arriving a little later to his global audience. In fact, most reactors eventually sum up their experiences speculating that he must be an alien - so it might be true. After all, Diva Dance was first performed in space and might be viewed as evidence of alien ancestry. He is 26 in human years. In his teens, he wrote a song to showcase a D8 which otherwise had only been heard from pseudo-singers attempting a Guinness record. His lower register continues to mature beyond what we heard in SOS and each quarter his partnership with Russian composer Igor Krutoy delivers new material that uniquely showcases more Dimash surprises. The Singer material is great but for your sake, I hope your private viewing of Dimash is well beyond that. As you can see if you've read this far, I was never good at summarizing. Even accounting for you skipping Uptown Funk as suggested below (I concur) you risk never catching up with a large number of his truly unique performances. I subscribed today and I'll watch what you watch unless such other worldly performances fail to find more visibility on the channel. It's not just about Dimash (I graciously try to say) as at least 10 actively recording Philippine singers, some of whom you've featured, I would also classify as other worldly. Back to Dimash. I recently watched a single reaction compilation video in which 14 people were reacting to Dimash's stage performance of SINFUL PASSION. In that performance, we see full grown heterosexual men holding I Love Dimash LED signs in the audience. We hear a song build beautifully though it does seem to lack a distinct ending. We hear eastern vocal styling this westerner can only describe as similar to an Islamic call to prayer. Then we hear Dimash switching techniques and styles again; culminating in what any other male would find an impossible note to belt, whistle, falsetto, head voice or even lip synch to his effect. We humans are glad when he takes a breath because that reminds us to breath while watching. Perhaps the person who edited the compilation reaction video is the culprit but none of those 14 people can be heard talking about the true miracle just before the song ends. Vocal capacity bigger even than what was necessary for the sweeping glissando that alone, would exhaust any other air breather. When SINFUL PASSION finds its way to be featured here, I have absolute confidence your analysis will emphasize this other-worldly capacity that no amount of straight tone singing (giving up vibrato for Lent) could begin account for. Lately, I've wondered whether Dimash has somehow combined Mongolian throat singing (minus the possessed by a demon vibe) and circular breathing into infinitely sustainable vocal phrases. Perhaps his high notes are overtones he somehow manages to deliver louder and later than his opening lyric tones. OR, perhaps when we see him remove his left IEM (in ear monitor) as he often does, perhaps he is showing us a being evolved to take in supplemental air through their ears, with an effect much like a pipe organ receives from mechanical bellows. If Dimash's body was Pavarotti sized, the concert organ analogy could be extended to look for pipes, stops and ranks. Instrumentation which would explain his range exceeding, by an octave or more, even the most generous ranges documented for either Mariah Carey or Celine Dion. Even if one accepts that he performs with access to 72 semi-tones, his body of recordings reveals most of those pitches can be delivered in 2 or 3 different musical styles - even within a single song. I say all this hoping you have or will become as passionate listening to him and perhaps prove he is only mortal -- making for the greatest miracle of all.
The next video should be The Show Must Go On
Stick to the plan of following The Singer and we will let you know when to skip a performance, mainly Uptown Funk.
With his 3rd week on the Singer he learned how to sing in English the Queen song in a week so his English is rough, but it's still amazing, Brian May loved it.
In my opinion do the next 2 videos in order from the Singer. What I love about that show is everything is top level from the orchestra to the sound and the stage, even the camera angles they take is excellent.
That would mean video 3 is The Show Must Go On followed by video and episode of the Singer is Autumn Strong.
After those 4 videos I say break away from The Singer for Sinful Passion, then Olympico/Ogna Pietro, then Unforgettable Day/Gakko
Perfect!! This is so helpful! Thank you 🤗🤗
Uptown Funk shows the fun side of him I liked that it showed he was more versatile and it showed his interaction with the crowd which i think makes him the perfect performer (just my opinion)
@@jessicasopranonotes Everyone has their opinion. Imho you'd better not skip everything after Episode 4, because you'd miss some fabulous performances:
Adagio (Episode 6, Dimash won first place)
Daididau (Episode 7, you'll see him playing dombra, the backstory is important, you may see it from Gloria Wu's channel. She has also good subtitles, but she alters the videos to avoid copyright, so you may use both the original video and hers).
Daybreak (Episode 8, please, check out the backstory from Gloria Wu, he was very sick that day and people will tell you to do the Bastau concert version, but imo you may do both versions, I love the Singer version very much).
All By Myself (Episode 9, a supreme Seline Dion's version)
Unforgettable Day (Episode 10, his own composition, you may combine it with the famous Gakku version with D8 )
Confessa + The Diva Dance (Episode 12, you may combine this with the Bastau version of "The Diva Dance" and the duet with Li Yugang "Drunken Concubine+The Diva Dance". These are 3 versions of the song of the alien from the movie "The Fifth Element". They are short, they can be done together).
Give Me Love (Episode 14, you may do this song from the Bastau concert instead, it's a huge concert and the performance is amazing).
Unforgettable Day Gakku Concert
Good strategy, don't forget to include Hello, Marigolds, Mademoiselles Hyde, Love Is Like A Dream. Please do all of Dimash at your convenience. Thanks for your reaction.
“If he goes higher, I’m gonna flip out.” Oh, you sweet summer child. LOL
Hehe, yes, that comment struck me as funny, coz you could see by his face expression he was going to push further. And he did!
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 dead
Famous last words HAHA
D8 BABYYYYY
Oh dears, she will freak out when she reaches OLIMPICO. 😜😄 I just can't wait. 😄
Haha yes indeed.
Omg I'm living fot that moment
Cant wait to see her shook moment 😂
Yep. Most definitely. 🥰
🤫🤫🤭🤭🤭🤣🤣
"If he goes higher I'm gonna flip out."
😂 *grabs popcorn and waits*
"If he goes higher, I'm going to flip out" Famous last words lol
*Sinful passion* is out of this world :)
So I hear!
@@jessicasopranonotes The order and songs that I would recommend is: Olimpico (Ogni Pietra), Sinful Passion, GAKKU concert for Unforgettable Day, Daybreak, Adagio, Autumn Strong, Samaltau, and finally Across Endless Dimensions.
Passione too
@@jessicasopranonotes You have an excellent ear! Thanks
@@jessicasopranonotes And you have an excellent trained and natural voice. I love it when you demonstrate.
For some reason I love watching trained singers of all genres having to scramble to pick up their jaws from the floor. Dimash is a mix of unquestionable talent and incredible devotion to voice and technique training. Bravo!
It's my new hobby. lol
Glad that I’m not the only one😅
I have been watching the reactions to Dimash for 3 years and you are the only one who noticed the change in the music and the expression on Dimash's face at the beginning. You are very considerate.👍👍👍
Thank you!
If you are an operatic singer, you would enjoy Ogni peitra, Diva dance, Ti amo Cosi.
There is a moment in his song "Unforgettable day" which will blow your mind.
And ADAGIO for sure
This song was a good choice for the competition for a couple of reasons. The judges of the competition are the people in the audience, who vote for their favorite performances of the evening. The original song by Vitas had been popular in China when it came out, and the audience knew that Vitas only modulated once, so they were really impressed by what Dimash did. He won the episode. The audience members being the judges also might come into play in regards to the songs Dimash sang in English, which he learned phonetically. This is evident in the next song, "The Show Must Go On", but I wonder how many of the audience would notice that his pronunciation wasn't perfect anyway.
Oh so cool! I didn't know how this show worked. I need to listen to the original!
I think you should listen to Ogni Pietra next to see more of his range.
Ogni Peitra is one of my favorites.
Dimash is the best singer in the WORLD and there are no doubts about that, his voice is a prodigy of nature and a genetic marvel since his parents are two glories of singing from Kazakhstan since he was 5 years old, he sings publicly and has more than twenty years of lyrical training and graduated from the university of music, he is a singer, composer, arranger and multi instrumentalist, he plays more than seven musical instruments and sings in more than nine languages, he is also a great performer and a great artist who lives and feels music He is not an imitator of voices , Dimash has his own style and is one of the forerunners of the "Popera" he also has a very pleasant, Humble and simple personality, easy access, which makes it very easy to follow, he always travels with His family and friends is a very educated person and an example to follow, he has become known for his musical talent not for getting into trouble or scandals, he is a singer with a wide vocal range very versatile is Baritone, Tenor, Soprano, against Tenor, mezasoprano, everything at the same time is how to have 5 singers in one, it has a male and female voice, also many resources such as vibrato, "melismas", falsetto, Staccato,whistle tone, reaching a D8 live at the concert of Gakku in an unforgettable day, at his young age he continues to improve and grow musically to perfection, he has a good physical presence he measures 191 cm or 6 "3", he is very famous and recognized in Asia and now he is becoming known In Europe and America, ALL their songs are spectacular, it always goes from low to high, soft to spectacular at the end, in my almost half a century of life I never heard so much quality and it is the hope of continuity of the classical genre because all the old tenors have already Almost all of them died and Dimash can sing like them but none of them can sing like Dimash, being a Man he sings better than any Tenor and his female voice is superior to that of any average Soprano, greetings and a hug from Venezuela🇻🇪, "Dears" Forever ❤️👍🏻 Sorry for copying and pasting my informative comment in ALL the Video reactions to Dimash what I see but I do it with the intention of sharing information about him and what I think that in the music industry there are many artists who have been successful and have no talent and are bad people and they do not set a good example for the youth, Dimash and his music deserve to triumph in America, Europe and the whole WORLD, do you want to have already read my comment please come by without problem there is always someone who for the first time knows this information and I won't get tired of sharing it with all my friends. Dear around the world, thanks for reading and for supporting Dimash❤️
@Ar Zinzin th-cam.com/video/dkPS6t84qg4/w-d-xo.html
You’re definitely not ready!😂. And I’m absolutely with you on this journey. Dimash is such an incredible singer!
I'm not readyyy lol
@@jessicasopranonotes 😂🤣😂🤣😂 Darling believe me, you are not ready for this roller coaster ride. Dimash is absolutely stunning and mind blowing. Every single time...
That's how you know you are doing something right when she has 50 likes and the video hasn't even played.
So just how cheeky this guy is, high ass notes 1, "you think that's it?", proceeds to go higher, "you think that's all i got?", higher, "this is me bitch!". Thats what I saw at the end.
next song should be DİVA DANCE !! OR love is like a dream
The Diva dance at bastau concert AND Diva dance fancam version in China. they both are so good!
@@kevinnguyen5042 yes both for sure!
YES!! Was about to say this. Diva Dance is a must, pleaaaase! Hear it.
You have no idea what you are in for dimash is the best singer in the world in my eyes. He is absolutely a one of a kind.
Yo this is one of the best reactions ive seen😂😂😂she said im not ready y'all. And believe me you're not🤣show must go on is next if im not wrong.
Perfect! Thank you!
Oh yes, It could be that haha, I forget the order 😂😂
@@jessicasopranonotes be aware that his english wasn't that good at the time.He is much better now.😊
@@Jane.S600 Thanks Jane! I wouldn't knock someone down for singing an English song when it isn't their first language. It's one of the hardest languages to grasp.
What else ?? You wait !!excelente reaction laughing and .. Laughing much more
Really love and appreciate your comments and responses. Dimash in 20 20 was 26, so a lot of maturing and further development to enjoy as u progress thru his work. U asked what else can he do - emotion and deep connection with the story of the lyrics, and playing with the music. I'm looking forward to following your development thru his work. I expect I know by now, he sung from a very young age, singing at 3 and performing from 5. His parents, both singers identified his interest and allowed and provided pertinent experiences. He has trained and reached high qualifications in many genres. He sings in 12 languages and speaks 3. He plays at least 7 instrument, composes and writes. At present he is studying for his doctorate. On too of all that - he is THE most genuine humble human being, involved in charity, gives a large part if his income to good works and his purpose in life is to bring people together in peace and love. He says he is just a normal guy, like everyone else, who gets angry etc. But his gifts to the world will be hugg and mostly unknown. If you've not already done so, look him up in wikipedia. Look 4wrad to your next session with him. 🥂
Omg he sounds like the most perfect human being 😍 Would absolutely love to meet him! And so impressive he started at such a young age! His dedication has most definitely paid off!
@@jessicasopranonotes Yes, we Dears do think he is a perfect human being. 😆
You need to listen to. Unforgettable day an. Across. Endless. Dimensions. An the. Diva. Dance
You never fail to bring your musical intellect and experience, and your Opera 2 reaction was no exception. What you did today for us was bring just a little bit extra of that Soprano Notes groove which made it even more fun to watch. Thanks a bunch - love what you do!
Awe, thanks Mark! I always love your comments!
I really enjoyed your reaction. It is good to hear the opinion of someone who knows what singing is and sees details that others overlook. I will follow your reactions with interest. Greetings to all Dears.
Thank you! 🤗🤗
OMG! Omg, omg... I didn’t know he could... I’m freaking out!!!! Is Dimash human??? 😱😱😱
This song was composed and performed by a Russian named Vitas. When Vitas did this song there was only on major key change. Dimash not only met that but went up three times. Another fact, Vitas sued Dimash for singing this without his permission the only known outcome of that lawsuit was Dimash is never to perform this again. I tend to think Vitas felt intimidated by how well outdid him, and rightly so. Welcome the World of Dimash
Thanks for this info, makes me love him more
next Sinful Passion !!! more 20 sec one breath
22-23 seconds with extreme belt with all the riffs and runs and insane melisma.
Finally !! I fınd the FRESH REACTION VIDEO, YOU WAS GREAT. You're my last favorite reaction channel. Do it more Dimash !
OH THIS IS SOMETHING I TOTALLY WANT TO SEE!
so happy to have found you. Finally a reactor that has something insightful and intelligent to say. Dimash also sings a lot with hands.... he seems to paint the notes.
It can be very helpful!
He does the whistle when he sings as well. The video to hear that is from New Drunken Concubine/Diva Dance. You should check that out because you will love it.
Thank you for this analysis! 🖤
His head moves in those superhigh falsetto notes because of the resonance it creates in his head (and he always removes his earpieces).
I think you would really love 'Ogni Pietra'.
It's in Italian and it's full on opera.
It was specially written for Dimash, because; he can sing both the male and the female parts. 🖤
Wow to have a song written especially for your voice 😍 what an honor!
@@jessicasopranonotes It's Igor Krutoy that writes most of his songs!
Igor wrote songs for Lara Fabian as well (Adagio as an example).
Dimash has done covers of many Lara songs, with Igor Krutoy by his side playing the piano.
He is a HUGE Lara fan. :)
@@jessicasopranonotes Just so you don’t get confused, ‘Olímpico’ is also known as ‘Ogni Pietra’, but it’s the same song!
Dude 2 year late but solid reaction videos.
Even though i know nothing it sounds like you do. ur input and appreciation of not just the singer but the gorgeous instrumentals earned you a sub thank you I hope there's more reaction to catch up on 😊
Really appreciate how you comment on the whole musical piece and composition -- it's really a lesson in music appreciation. Most reactors only talk about Dimash's voice and don't point out all these interesting things about arrangement, tempo, transitions, pick up notes etc. Thank you!!
Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice!=)))) Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice.=))))))) I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years.
I agree, most haunting voice ever. I keep imagining her singing a tragic character in a truly deep animated movie. Like a super sad masterpiece like Grave of the Fireflies.
Thank you! More & more & more Dimash! Subs + like
Love your insight and analysis. I've watched this performance and reactions to this so many times but never noticed some of the things you pointed out.
Thank you! So glad you learned something new 🤗
I love your expertise and I do thorougly enjoy your explanations, not only about Dimash's vocals, but also about the composition and arrangement. Keep reacting and analyzing this way.
I wish that the next video would be Sinful Passion, a firework of vocal styles some of which you haven't seen yet, and also an excellent display of his baritone register.
Thank you thank you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️So honest, professional, detailed and funny commentary, all mixed together, great! I'm so happy that another great opera singer has known Dimash and has been Dimashefied.
Greetings from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 The country of Antonín Dvořák and his 'Rusalka' 😉
You're very very welcome!! And so cool! Such incredible composers! 💛💛
I don't think the order really matters except for observing the maturation of his voice as compared to his more recent performances. There is not a bad Dimash performance. If you want to hear how he sounds today a good performance is Your Love or I Miss You. But since you are an opera singer you would most likely want to hear Ogni Pietra/Olimpico, Te Amo Cosi, and Ulysse.
@Ar Zinzin Therefore you speak for everyone who is French? I stand corrected.
@Ar Zinzin I did not watch your linked reference. I am losing you in translation with my limited ability to read French. I would say that I also speak for myself. There are many songs Dimash has sung which are not my favorite. That said, in my humble opinion, I have never heard him perform anything poorly in spite of the song. He could make Mary Had a Little Lamb sound like a work of art.
@Ar Zinzin I could do that, yes. But I don't speak French. There is a world of difference between reading French with a single year of High School French and several years of Latin and Spanish and comprehending spoken conversational French. I will take some time and try to get through the closed captioning.
@Ar Zinzin The link took me to what appeared to be a 50 minute documentary opening with a very beautiful French woman speaking in French in what appeared to be an interview. I immediately decided I did not have time to listen to a 50 minute interview conducted in a language I do not speak. My French class took place 50 years ago. I was initially confused as to why you were calling me, Barbara, a marvelous musician until after doing some further Googling I finally figured out you were talking about a famous French singer named Barbara. My apologies the only famous singer named Barbara I was aware before now spells it Barbra who is also a marvelous singer. I will take some time to listen to some of Barbara's songs. Thank you for educating me. And I hope you can understand that even when people are speaking in the same language they can misunderstand one another in online written messages.
How longingly i waited for your journey to continue with Dimash!
I've heard this song like a thousand times already n never noticed about drums at the second part. Thank y for that. Please, more reactions more often! Sscrbed
Amazing Dimash
Thanks I really love yr reaction.
Excellent analysis, Miss Gorgeous! Thanks for commenting also on the composition. I would suggest you react next to Sinful passion, I would like your comment on his vocal fry, I am confident you'll be, again stunned. Thanks for considering it. A big hug to you from Greece!
Awe, thank you! I am very much looking forward to reacting to Sinful Passion! Thank you for being so supportive ☺️
Oh Sinful Passion ❤️❤️❤️
For a opera singer, next must be "Ogni Pietra".. with "Diva Dance" first as aperitive.
Sinful Pasion can wait.
You are a breath of fresh air! So wonderful to hear your insights and professional critique. Dimash will surprise you every time with his vocal talent, versatility and stage presence. Too many amazing performances to mention but you should check out Love is like a Dream, Your love, Daybreak @ Bastau, Samaltau, Diva dance @ Bastau, Sinful passion @ Sochi, Passione, Know, Qaragym-ai (2020 version)... I could go on. Look forward to more reactions. Greetings from Australia
He's the best of the best...Dimash is the best singer ever!!!
Amazing amazing reaction. Dimash post-singer performances are even more legendary in my opinion 😉😋
Thanks for your reaction. Alga DIMASH! From KYRGYZSTAN!
I’m excited for your journey with Dimash! I’ll be here for every video.
Thanks Trent! Always good to see you in the comments. Thanks for being so supportive ☺️
OMG T.T ... I learned more from your reaction/analysis than any other reactors. I look forward to watching your analysis on his other performances. Next up should be the 3rd episode where he sings The Show Must Go On by Queen:
th-cam.com/video/ul3kpE1qcow/w-d-xo.html
Please note, that his native language is Kazakh, and his second language is Russian, he speaks 0 English at the time. But he'll be the first one to admit that he needs to improve on his English, it's gotten a lot better now. Even dared to do an interview without a translator on an English interview late last year (you have no idea how proud we were when he did that:D)
Urgghh, this is too much... did you know, his fans just finished watching his exclusive online show a couple of hours ago? many of us are still rewatching it. I actually paused it halfway to watch this. And then he'll be appearing in another online gala less than 48 hours from now... This is Dimash overload LOL... You're not the only one who's not ready. Even his fans are not ready with what he brings to the table. I'm still shocked, and I've watched more than 70+ of his songs... I'm really not ready T.T ...
Btw, personally, I don't mind what order you'll go through. You'll eventually end up reacting to all of them :D. I can't imagine being in your shoes and refraining myself to only watch his performances in order. OMG, I'd definitely want to see his current works. I wouldn't mind if you did. Either way, I'd watch your reactions anyway. It's great!
How was his performance?! I missed out on it (it was 6am my time when it started). So much Dimash things happening at once, but this is GREAT!
@@jessicasopranonotes I'm so glad you asked, I need to pour out my feelings somewhere LOL... "Shocking" is the word I'd use. He performed new songs and used so many different styles that we seldom or never heard him use before. I literally had my jaw dropping several times. And the older songs he somehow made them feel fresh. The only complaint I had was I wished it was longer and truly live (it's a prerecorded exclusive show)... nonstop 17 songs, 90 minutes. Wish he had a chance to give a speech, but it seems they decided that jamming in all the songs they could give was the right way to go. And I'm certainly grateful for that, it was amazing!
Well, actually, you haven't missed out on anything yet (except the live chat on the premiere hahaha). They just announced a couple of weeks ago that the tickets can still be purchased until the 23rd, and with one ticket you could watch the show for unlimited times until the 23rd. (it was previously 1 ticket for 1-time streaming)
And the upcoming gala is a non-partisan online gala held by the Sister Cities International in celebration of the inauguration. It's open to all for free. All you need to do is register on their web sistercities.org/sci-presidential-inauguration/ We don't know what song(s?) Dimash will perform yet.
I don't know how this will affect your reaction if you sign up to any of these events. But I think it'll be fine. Your videos aren't just reactions, their analysis. It's fine to analyse the things you've watched to before (just opt out the word reaction, and make sure to give a disclaimer that you've heard the song before) Many good analysers do that too. And tbh, 17 songs is a small percentage of his repertoire (and you've already done SOS which he performed in this online show). You'd still have many materials to go through. And most of his performances are different anyway that you'd sometime have to react to the same song twice :D...
@@NTHTVal Oh wow it sounds like you really enjoyed watching the performance! I can see why they decided to only do songs; especially considering they had 17 of them on the program. That's quite a concert!
I agree with you. I don't mind doing reactions to performances I've seen already and I can most definitely give that disclaimer. Plus, like you mentioned, every performance is different and I could very easily have different things to say about 2 different performances of the same song!
Thank you so much for sharing that link! I haven't decided if I'll tune in yet, but if I do I'm grateful you sent me the link.
SO happy you got to see his performance! 🤗
One of the best reactions of Opera 2!!! Cheers to you! You will be stunned by Dimash again and again! If you consider to react to other singers, please consider including Diana Ankudinova, I am very interested in your opinion on her voice. Love to you!
Thank you!! And I plan to record a reaction of Ms. Ankudinova next week, so it should be up within the next few weeks 🤗
@@jessicasopranonotes That's gonna be a cool reaction to watch
I love that you mentioned the vibrato on the last note. He has a way of enhancing the last note when other artists are losing power and control.
Well girl, he has another two octaves above that.
😱
This was a nice reaction I’m impressed .🌹
Thanks Alex ☺️
Hopefully you witnessed Dimash's digital concert a few hours ago. It was fantastic and showed a new song that is sure to be a hit !!!
I didn't 😭
@@jessicasopranonotes you still can, you're just not allowed to download anything or share anything but pictures. It'll be up until the 23rd.
Young Lady Opera singer, u do one of the best vocal breakdowns on uTube. Really excellent information, observations and instruction. Tnx
Is there a reason why this video is unlisted? Number 3 is "Show must go on" (Queen cover). Interested to see what you think
I had it unlisted for my Patrons. I was unaware the link could be found by others, but now I know for the future.
Excellent analysis, thank you. I love how you covered more that just his voice which is stunning enough, but also the tension between the piano & voice in the verses and the tempo changes.
It's a great composition!
@@jessicasopranonotes Supposedly Dimash was prevented from performing this again by Vitas who was upset that he did three step ups rather than his original one.
Vitas is a fantastic performer, underrated outside of Russia and the Far East. He is always superbly dressed or in elaborate costumes. In the original video for Opera#2 th-cam.com/video/8-qZD6XHVCA/w-d-xo.html he appears as a mermaid struggling to be amongst people - the scene in the bath tub surely an influence on the 2017 film “The Shape of Water” (yes I know that had “The Monster from the Black Lagoon” with legs rather than a traditional mermaid/merman with a fin). Also enjoy video for “Lucia Di Lammermoor”(Fifth Element song) th-cam.com/video/Kg0wZkABMn8/w-d-xo.html and lavish video for “La Donna E Mobile” th-cam.com/video/xPOWF_Ts7rg/w-d-xo.html .
Vitas has been "accused" of lip syncing all his live performances of Opera No.2 such as this th-cam.com/video/ZSenveV5QP4/w-d-xo.html but I think we're less bothered by such issues now if for large stadium performances provided it is their original voice and not edited up in pitch. I'm not sure if sound systems can sync well enough what the performer hears and then the audience to hear a time-synced music & voice ? In some later performances Vitas tried to demonstrate he was not lip syncing by moving the microphone back and forth th-cam.com/video/wOmyRx56MEg/w-d-xo.html but the uneducated arm-chair “experts” questioned whether this just not well practiced too. I suppose one might wonder whether this is really the same music backing track each time, but of course one can sing live to a music track. Most recently this live performance from 2010 th-cam.com/video/-msZPsY1YWI/w-d-xo.html where he goes even higher, such as shame the sound quality is rather muffled.
Whatever the truth of lip-syncing, I agree Opera No.2 is similar to S.O.S d'un terrien en détresse in being an incredible piece of imagination by their composers and courage of the singers to perform this live. Dimash had been unwell for a while when he wowed us all with his S.O.S d'un terrien en détresse and was supposedly a little disappointed... as I stop coughing to catching my breath at this, I have to say personally I think it’s his best - latter versions in larger auditoriums didn’t have the intimacy that I felt from the Chinese TV company’s production with a very slick band/orchestra.
The Singer 2017 performances have such variety of music styles, techniques and genres. I love them all.
He is life hacking by accessing every vocal register, every vocal tone, and every vocal technique.
Dimash is amazing, and i really appreciate your analysis, i'm excited waiting mainly Sinful Passion and Diva Dance, good job girl with this reaction, really with context and quality
Thanks so much!!
Love the reaction and the analysis
A true analysis .
You: If he goes higher, I'm gonna flip out.
Dears: LoL !!!
Enjoy the journey! There _is_ more to come. Dimash is that good.

@@monicamlevantini7215 Thank you Mónica and welcome! 🤗
Jess, as great as it is to have my first chance to listen to Dimash, and he is fabulous, I have to say I am blown away having the chance to listen to you dissect the music, the song, and the singer! You are a joy to listen to, and every time I get to hear one of your reactions my IQ is actually raised by 5 - 10 points! You are the best there is at what you do, and we are fortunate to have the chance to listen to you!!
Dimash singing is God's gift to mankind hi low sopranos whistle etc a hard working talented artist great reaction from New Zealand dears
I can't live well without hearing Dimash every day - It is education for the soul xxx
He does sings a couple of sad songs in memory of tragic events in China. He is a master storyteller.
Just like your So Hyang react, I love that you are analyzing the composition and his interaction with it at a level that is completely unique to the dozens of vocal coaches who have covered this performance. It's very rare to learn something about the most popular performances of both artists but you are batting 1.000 on this front and I am very happy to be subscribed to your channel. Hoping you make your way back to So Hyang as well!
Wow, thanks so much! You're too kind! Yes, I will definitely make my way back to Sohyang! Love her voice!
Thank you for a great breakdown and review. I appreciate the professional analysis. Blessings.
You're welcome Bill!
Hi, if you go in order when the time of "Diva dance" ( the one from the movie 5th element )chose the one from the Bastau live concert it is far better than the one he made in that competition. Stay safe
Thank you Paolo!
Diva dance is very short anyway. It's probably better to do several versions in the same episode. Bastau obviously but maybe the drunken concubine
@@zeustn9525 I agree
@@jessicasopranonotes Please don't skip the performance of Diva Dance here - it is combined with a most dramatic and only once in his lifetime performed italian song (Confessa), the performance is incredible! And so is the ending of Diva Dance - most spectacular! 🙏❤️
You should check out when he sings ‘Stranger’ live. His vocals are amazing and at the end he pretty much holds a high note for at least 20 seconds.
As a non singer I'm loving the depth of your analysis.
You'll keep thinking: "Well, I know what to expect now .". And then you don't...again and again and again. Great react/commentary!
You're so much fun to watch and love your analysis! I'm looking forward to every one of your Dimash reactions!
Thanks Barbara!
thanks for reacting to my favorite guy.
Great, informed and entertaining reaction, thanks! Looking forward to the rest of the Dimash episodes!!
Just fell down the Dimash rabbit hole about 7 hours ago..... It blew my mind. Opera 2 was the first one I saw, so this was the one i started on, and I about died. and I was so built up by seeing that, I believe I watched it 4 or 5 times in a row before moving on to anything else. unfathomable. truly. and because I had all of that built up emotion from watching it, (neither my children nor husband understand that gut emotional feeling that comes from hearing this, but maybe some here understand)... that when I moved on to the 2nd video I saw of his, the one that you reacted to first, 'D'un terrien en detresse', I was in tears.
I loved how you said, "if he goes any higher..." having seen it before, I was like, oh yes... just wait... lol
I have listened to and watched videos of his for hours now, and found him on spotify, and started to watch reactions. I had my youngest and husband listen to it to explain why I was over here, with headphones on, probably looking exactly like you in this video.... but they didn''t get it. I am not sure how people can't feel that, idk. weird. they didn't react the way that I thought they should. maybe not knowing how exceptional it is... so I decided to look up reactions from people who do have and understand that level. after 15 videos of vocal coaches, dj, singers, etc.... you were the first and only person to pause but give a comprehensive comment on it. most just paused and gave opinions or very loose info on what is happening, like "he is using his head voice"... a very broad statement. You gave incredibly good info at a level that people who do not know much about music would be able to understand. that in itself is not easy, yet you did it without script.
I will have to go find your stuff now cause you clearly have a very knowledgably background and beautiful voice.
I enjoyed the song as much as she did, and I listen to it every day, lol🤣❤️
Sinful passión next.
Perfect reaction.. With Dimash you will never be ready. All his songs will surprise you even more. That's why we Dears love and support our KING all the way. You will soon be a Dear too and will be stucked with him. Not only is he incredible but also a very humble person. We love him with this down-to-earth attitude. Loves his family dearly, loves children a lot, does so many charity work. He is the perfect human being this world needs. Trust me, you'll be getting more subscribers from the Dears because of this one man. He has changed my perspective on life. Greetings from Indonesia. Thank you 🙏
I loved your reaction!
Please react to Ogni Pietra and Sinful Passion 😍♥️
Really did love your remarks and knowledge, knowing that you are becoming a dear, that is what he calls those you enjoy him and his music. You will learn more of him I am sure by those who comment, just for your info, his grandmother keep him till he was 10 which is a custom in his country, although mother and dad also were very active in his entire up bringing, she sang opera as does his mother and dad sings but not opera. He started piano at 3 and began taking lesson at that age and has been learning ever since. He has one doctorate in music and I believe study for his composition or another doctorate. You have just scratched the surface of listening to his abilities. You will enjoy. His control and not even to mention his stage performances are the best you will ever see, he lets his movement speak loudly the emotions in the songs and all the lighting and musicians and the whole performance is as good as it gets. Enjoy, the last man shown in that video is his dad, who surprised him by being there in China for that performance, they live in Republic of Kazakhstan, use to be part of Russia, and he speaks Russian and several other languages, and has been studying English and the main Chinese language, Mandarin.
you have the most emotional video of all reactionary
Thank you! That means so much ☺️
Love of Tired Swans is so sweet by him 😍🐱👤🌹 What a counter.....everything
The older gentleman, you see in the shadows a couple of times, is his father. HIs dad surprised him during this competition. He didn't know his dad had come to hear him perform.
new to you, great reaction. The man with the red vest is his father. As you progress in his life as he ages and perfects his stage presence, and his looks and charm ( he is 6'3 but looks small in these first videos) his connection to his audience and fans you will appreciate even more his dedication to his craft. He is loving, kind, adores his family and homeland. He is today 27 so 5 years have passed since The Singer competition. Hope you enjoy the ride. If you get time try to watch a couple of interviews.
Great idea to watch him in interviews! Thank you Ann
the headshaking is due to resonance because it's so high
Great reaction! I really enjoy your reactions,I find them so informative. I know that even if you didn't enjoy the song cos its not what you enjoy listening to,you would be honest & appreciate the technicalities of the performance anyhow. There is nothing worse than someone giving bad feedback just because they dont like the artist or its not a genre they'd normally listen & you're watching them speak & actually wondering if they've actually just seen the same performance you have.This is why I like watching reactionsl from people that are involved in/with music professionally as they tend to give honest & informative feedback. I love people reacting to dimash because its as if they all start off thinking " he blew me away last time but i'm totally prepared for him this time" but as we all find out as some point,it doesn't matter how many of his performances we see,dimas has the ability to shock use again & again.
Nothing to do with dimash as such but I always think of these 2 together, a little reminder to react to 'arirang alone' by sohyang, from the 'immortal songs' series. Thankyou & keep those reactions coming
Loved reading your comment Linzi. I too, think it's important to be able to communicate what is going on in a performance in a constructive way whether the voice teacher likes the song or not. It's educational on both ends. In my opinion at least. And you got it, I have that written down on my list 💛
Wow yeah Dimash is just unbelievable! It's so interesting to listen to your analysis! After you finish with the videos from this show, I suggest you to listen to his songs in Italian, "Ogni pietra", "Ti amo così", "Ulisse" and "Passione"... I think it'll be interesting to hear what you think about his voice slightly changing when singing in other languages!!
Edit: for "Ogni Pietra/Olimpico" I highly recommend the video from WorldSkills Kazan 2019... I think it's his most epic performance of all time
DIMASH KUDAYBERGEN ALEM ANSHISI!☝️
Respect👍
DIMASH: ALWAYS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS
Great reaction to the best singer in the world.
Perfect day fr a reaction. My Birthday lol. Make it a good one beautiful!!!!!
😍🤗❤
Happy Birthday Wayne!! 🥳🥳
@@jessicasopranonotes Thank you soooo much beautiful!!!
Could you possibly react to "Remember When by Alan Jackson" for me? That would mean so much to me!!!
🥺🥺🤗🤗
"The Show Must Go On" I believe would be next chronologically. You are in for such a treat with SO MANY of his performances.. keep up the great work
Thank you! And I am very excited ☺️
New subscriber here 😊
Love your analytics on these videos, I can't remember which video is next, still got some more in the contest yet for sure, maybe Adagio or Hello? I am sure some of the other dears will know the order, but I really look forward to you listening and analysing his more recent work. Omni Pietra is one I look forward to you reacting to, due to it being very operatic.
Thank you so much Anthony!
Every performance is different and mind blowing..prepare for a roller coaster ride :)
Dimash is the total package!
Video three is _______________(decanted) as in aged and ready to be consumed here. As in this congregant is ready for 'de Cantor to Dimash it! I love your analysis videos as they provide the perfect balance of technical insight for 'de masses and fandom when warranted. When you pause the performance you take the time to cover major points while still minimizing total interruptions. While I've enjoyed all kinds of reaction videos as a means of validating my own post performance emotions against a global community, your analysis focuses on key points I might (or might not) get listening to 8 other channels (including national voice teachers) per performance. You do this EXTREMELY well. Seeing some of your bloopers I became more aware of the time commitment, editing and overall production demands delivering so much more than a chorus of passive watchers united only in a process that turns other people's performances into selfie spotlights. Dimash receives and deserves more than that as you acknowledged arriving a little later to his global audience. In fact, most reactors eventually sum up their experiences speculating that he must be an alien - so it might be true. After all, Diva Dance was first performed in space and might be viewed as evidence of alien ancestry. He is 26 in human years. In his teens, he wrote a song to showcase a D8 which otherwise had only been heard from pseudo-singers attempting a Guinness record. His lower register continues to mature beyond what we heard in SOS and each quarter his partnership with Russian composer Igor Krutoy delivers new material that uniquely showcases more Dimash surprises. The Singer material is great but for your sake, I hope your private viewing of Dimash is well beyond that. As you can see if you've read this far, I was never good at summarizing.
Even accounting for you skipping Uptown Funk as suggested below (I concur) you risk never catching up with a large number of his truly unique performances. I subscribed today and I'll watch what you watch unless such other worldly performances fail to find more visibility on the channel. It's not just about Dimash (I graciously try to say) as at least 10 actively recording Philippine singers, some of whom you've featured, I would also classify as other worldly. Back to Dimash. I recently watched a single reaction compilation video in which 14 people were reacting to Dimash's stage performance of SINFUL PASSION. In that performance, we see full grown heterosexual men holding I Love Dimash LED signs in the audience. We hear a song build beautifully though it does seem to lack a distinct ending. We hear eastern vocal styling this westerner can only describe as similar to an Islamic call to prayer. Then we hear Dimash switching techniques and styles again; culminating in what any other male would find an impossible note to belt, whistle, falsetto, head voice or even lip synch to his effect. We humans are glad when he takes a breath because that reminds us to breath while watching.
Perhaps the person who edited the compilation reaction video is the culprit but none of those 14 people can be heard talking about the true miracle just before the song ends. Vocal capacity bigger even than what was necessary for the sweeping glissando that alone, would exhaust any other air breather. When SINFUL PASSION finds its way to be featured here, I have absolute confidence your analysis will emphasize this other-worldly capacity that no amount of straight tone singing (giving up vibrato for Lent) could begin account for. Lately, I've wondered whether Dimash has somehow combined Mongolian throat singing (minus the possessed by a demon vibe) and circular breathing into infinitely sustainable vocal phrases. Perhaps his high notes are overtones he somehow manages to deliver louder and later than his opening lyric tones. OR, perhaps when we see him remove his left IEM (in ear monitor) as he often does, perhaps he is showing us a being evolved to take in supplemental air through their ears, with an effect much like a pipe organ receives from mechanical bellows. If Dimash's body was Pavarotti sized, the concert organ analogy could be extended to look for pipes, stops and ranks. Instrumentation which would explain his range exceeding, by an octave or more, even the most generous ranges documented for either Mariah Carey or Celine Dion. Even if one accepts that he performs with access to 72 semi-tones, his body of recordings reveals most of those pitches can be delivered in 2 or 3 different musical styles - even within a single song. I say all this hoping you have or will become as passionate listening to him and perhaps prove he is only mortal -- making for the greatest miracle of all.
Oh his head moves may be involuntary because of resonance in his chambers because it usually happens on a lot of volume!
Thank GOD, that you are doing this one:)
