Your reaction is heartfelt and beautiful. I think Lara's voice is so special that she stirs feelings no one else can touch. Personally, I think she's the best singer on this planet (and perhaps others, too!). She spoke of forgiveness, and her facial expressions also hinted that she truly has forgiven the person who betrayed her. I have heard she is a wonderful human being - kind, loving, gracious, generous - it all comes through in her singing. She is truly extraordinary.
The only artist I've ever seen that consistently delivers so much emotion that it always just draws you in and it is as if she is singing to just you. Love your reaction🌹
Glad to see you back....This one definitely gets you. I tear up everytime i listen....Take care of yourself ! Look forward to more Lara reactions...this concert series especially....there's a lot of WOW for you to hear....
Alison you see many years aftr this interpretation ,and always grab every one by the heart , the emotion ,the feeling . It's ok to show your emotion . i had the same feeling thank you to react to our queen madam Lara Fabian .
He sido fans de la hermosa Lara Fabián por muchos años, en una entrevista ella dijo que esta canción es su favorita en ese idioma, que la escribió en el suelo de su baño mientras lloraba... Cada vez que la escucho lloro 😢 Gracias por reaccionar ❤
Congratulations, you couldn't have made a better choice in returning to react in Lara's musical world, continue, you will always find so much feeling and sincerity in Lara. 🌺
So nice to watch you reacting to Queen Lara again. And, yes, her speaking voice is as melodic as her singing voice. 🤎 She’s all the way sublime and relatable at the same time! 👸🏼 No other singer/performer moves me the way Lara does. She’s really unique. So, don’t worry, I get you… And it’s quite possible that she’ll make you cry some other times… Don’t fight it. It’s worthless. 🤷🏻♀️
Lara Fabian siente cada palabra ,su mirada sus gestos , su cuerpo te explica todo, y esa voz limpia , cristalina,su técnica ,ella es un completo. Si puedes hacer más reacciones a otros temas de Lara ,ella canta en 12 idiomas, y habla ,4 fluidamente , inglés , francés , italiano y español.
There is no need to apologize for your emotions. I am a 77 year old man and cannot watch her without having moist eyes and deep feelings. Thank you for this and your reaction.
Beautiful reaction. I’m so sorry if it was triggering because of past hurt; however, you helped drive home the point that somethings are in fact universal: love and hurt, joy and sorrow. Thank you for sharing your reaction.
Alison, not Allie...I have to tell you, I am a 75 yr old man, married for 30 years, divorced almost 20 yrs now. Fortunately my ex and I have a good relationship (I'll go do her lawn later this AM). I have heard Lara perform Broken several times and every time, including this morning, tears flow. Her tone and delivery crawl into my heart every time. The split was my fault. Guilt is difficult to deal with but life has to go forward and healing is on-going. The heart heals but doesn't forget.
@@axel_r_That’s a pretty derogative comment, totally unnecessary… Every person can comment, and I love it that all ages and nationalities and angles of life are represented (and no, I am not old yet)…

Lara Fabian is a true artist, author, composer and performer. a sunny woman who catches you like a moth in the light. lara the best of humanity....
I only discovered Lara a few months ago.... unfortunately she's an unknown is Aus.... such a shame.... truly one of the best if not THE best female voice on the planet. Nobody delivers like Lara. This entire live concert... 'From Lara With Love'....is a just amazing. Another song along the same line..sort of....is Calling You ...live. Thanks for the reaction.
I would love to see a duet with Lara and Tina Arena. They both have so many things in common (sicilian origin, multingual singing and songwriting, versatility in the genres they can adress, french child, …). Tina even met her former french husband thanks to Patrick Fiori, the former boyfriend of Lara 😂
Hey, Alison. Your reactions always move me. Thank you for always being your true genuine self here. When you said you know Lara's voice from your childhood, it made me listen differently than I usually do. And I heard some nuances/similarities to other great female vocalists that I heard often when I was young. The one that resonated most today was Barbra Streisand. Of course Lara is totally unique, but at least for a minute, I heard a young Barbara singing right along with her. Regardless, I can never listen to Lara without tears welling if not pouring. Thank you again for your heart felt reactions. Sending you a friendly hug for your recent struggles. Hang in there, my friend! xo
Oh my goodness. Barbara Streisand is what I was hearing. It’s just clicked in my head when I saw that name! You’re absolutely right. It’s those nuances in some of the notes. Right there when she drops into ‘more than a broken vow’ - she does have a truly individual voice though. Thank you so much for such a heartfelt comment, and thank you for making the lightbulb go off! 💡☺️ Thankfully doing a fair amount better now (but I’m on holidays overseas so hopefully everything back in reality at home will be back to normal soon) Xx
Lara is out of this world. Her voice is absolutely spectacular and her storytelling ability is just... insane. She feels every single word with her whole entire being and she lets us feel it too. She's incredible. This is her own original song, but even when she does covers (like "Je Suis Malade" which I know you've heard already) she completely transforms the songs into her own and she puts her whole heart and soul into them. Thank you for this wonderful reaction. I hope you'll react to more Lara in the future. "Adagio" live from the same concert (in my opinion, Lara should always be experienced live) and also "Caruso" are both a must. And "Je T'aime" in Paris, when she was going through a really tough time in her life and the audience surprised her with so much love and support that she barely knew what to do with herself. Oh, and her "Yentl Medley". The video quality won't be the best, but her talent and performance certainly are!
What a beautiful heart-wrenching song. What a beautiful reaction and reactor. I'll let you know I'm a gay guy so you do not think I am perving. Many of us have not gone through this, but we all know what heartbreak feels like. Lara just lives her music and forces us to feel it. Lara moves me like nobody else. I know Lara is genuine and has gone through much of what she sings about, but she also is a very good actress. A few of her recordings show this. In many of her performances you can tell she knows exactly where all the cameras are because she often looks straight into your soul when singing for those of us who are not even there.
Thank you! Even editing it and watching it back I found myself needing to take breaks from how emotional it kept making me! It’s truly a certain presence that not all singers or performers have, isn’t it? You can’t teach or learn that

Hello Alison, here are some pieces of music from Lara you may have heard... Lara sang for Disney de French/English canadian version of the Hunchback of Notre-Dame. She also sang "Always" as the main track of the "AI" movie by Steven Spielberg. She was >50 weeks at the top of the charts in the US with the Song "I will love Again". She also sang the main track of a very famous soap opera in Brasil with the song called "Love by Grace"... Thanks for the reaction !
!!!! Okay we’re getting some connections! I will love again is probably it, but it could also be AI… I definitely think I remember her from Disney too, thank you for this!!☺️
To find out more about Lara You have to watch one of these concerts in its entirety, because the interaction between Lara's songs and her audience is almost as important as her songs themselves. It's hard to watch the whole thing as a reaction on TH-cam unless you're going to split it up. But it can be done outside youtube. En toute intimité is my favourite, and it's completely translated into English. th-cam.com/video/NMHym4N4UXo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZwZueZ1-f9C2vTDb
Pour moi qui suis Français , Lara est depuis plusieurs années déjà , la meilleure chanteuse Francophone et jusqu' à ce jour personne ne l' a égalée , absolument personne ( dans la Francophonie of course ) . Merci Alison d' avoir accepté de l' écouter !! Have a good day !
One of the most beautifully written songs ever and that performance is just INCREDIBLE. Emotions, vocals, orchestra. On point. If it helps, she did the voice acting of Esmeralda in The hunchback of Notre Dam She sang the soundtrack of AI Artificial Intelligence (For Always)
A heartfelt,beautiful reaction,Alison! Lara truly sings heart to heart and I could see her reach into yours. Thank you for sharing and I hope the “emotional time”you speak of is behind you! Sending love from an old lady in the USA!❤️❤️
I love Lara and I only found her music about 2 years ago, however I first heard this song from Josh Groban, even though it’s an original from Lara! I never could understand the verse where she sings I’d give away my soul to hold you once again, doesn’t sound like forgiveness to me and first of all I would never Forgive
You can relax with most of Lara Fabian's performances uploaded to "TH-cam" and no worries in particular regarding the entirety of the "From Lara with Love" Concert playlist ..there are no 'copyright claims' being asserted. If you so desired, you could run/screen the performance straight through, uninterrupted - from start to finish with impunity all the while looking on sitting stone-faced and unmoved 😉
The music of Broken Vow was co-composed by Walter Afanassiev and Lara Fabian. Walter Afanassiev, an american/brazilian from russian descent, is a legendary composer and producer (he co-composed some of the greatest initial hits of Mariah Carey such as All I Want for Christmas is You or Hero and was the producer of the Titanic soundtrack that increased Celine Dion WW fame). He is produced a song for Dimash among others. When this song was composed, Walter and Lara were engaged, they were living in San Francisco’s bay area, but apparently he cheated and she decided to break up. When she took this decision, that she knew would dramatically change both her personal and professional destiny, she wrote these incredible lyrics. Lara has said this is her preferred english song from all the songs she wrote in this language (there are many, and some are pure jewels). One reason is also because this song has then been covered by the greatests: - Barbra Streisand (she performed it in concerts from one of her tour but never recorded it), - Josh Groban (his cover made this song famous in US, she is her friend and role model and he made several duets with her), - Linda Eder, - Cakra Khan, - Gigi de Lana, - Regine Velasquez, - Almira (from 4th Impact), - Katrina Velarde, - Julie Anne San Jose, - Sarah Geronimo, - Morissette Amon, - Petra Berger, - Harrison Craig, - Rimar, - Jackie Evancho, - … For Jackie Evancho, and at the request of Jackie's parents who found the original lyrics were not a good fit for a young girl, Lara rewrote Broken Vow in french as "Imaginer" with a complete different meaning. But the original from Lara remains the absolute reference th-cam.com/video/kJBGCI8aSE4/w-d-xo.html
What is the meaning Eric of mentioning this fcking bastard Walter A? All he did was to complete her USA nightmare and help her come very close to suicidal thoughts. Lara wants to forget everything about him, why don't you do the same and let him be forgoten? Take care ❤
She was the animated voice of Esmeralda in the French Canadian film itself and also recorded the French Canadian pop version of the song God Help The Outcasts. It is truly beautiful.
@@michaelhartley7073 My bad. You are absolutely right🥴. I wanted to talk about the singed part but it's not Lara Fabian in the US version either. She dubbed the entire thing in the Quebec version only😊.
@@michaelhartley7073 Actually Demi Moore was only the speaking voice. Heidi Mollenhauer sang Esmeralda's vocals in the American version of the animated feature film. Lara was indeed the singing voice of Esmeralda in the French Canadian version of the film and also recorded the French Canadian pop version of God Help The Outcasts. Hope this helps clarify everything.
Alison, I knew this song would get to you. Thank you for reviewing this song, it makes me cry every time I listen to it. Such a wonderfully written song by someone with a true loving heart.
Alison Lara is in my opinion the best women performer on planet earth.There are other good performers also but she is a stelar performer that has total control of her voice and she can move her audience we relate to her story songs. She is my favorite performer. She lives or lived about 30 minutes from where i live Montreal Quebec Canada. she is compared to Celine Dion. Lara has a angelic voice like a murmaid . what a talented women. :)
👉 This song was covered by Josh Groban and … Barbra Streisand. But this is an original from Lara. She also wrote the lyrics. She co-composed the music with Walter Afanassiev, she was engaged to him and he betrayed her. So she broke and wrote these lyrics on top of the music they made. * Lara Fabian, *1970, is a world famous Belgian-Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, actress and producer. She is Belgian but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicily). She grew up in both countries and therefore speaks both French and Italian as her mother tongue. She was classically trained in singing, piano and song composition for 10 years (from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory. To this day she has singing lessons and trains several times a week. She started her career in Canada in the early 1990s. She now lives in Montreal and also has Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in 4 languages (French, Italian, English, Spanish) and has sung in a total of 12 languages. She has sold over 20 million records worldwide as of September 2017 and is one of the best-selling Belgian artists of all time. In 2000, Lara launched her triumphal procession in the US, but a falling out with Sony over her artistic direction and the will of Celine Dion's management to block her path to the US thwarted that plan. She therefore focused on Europe again and had great success there, expanding her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her many years of collaboration with Igor Krutoy. She's also a star in Brazilia. Many of their songs are now classics and are covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban... The US is now rediscovering her through her covers of Lara Fabian songs. She is Dimash's idol. He has covered some of her songs. She also wrote the lyrics to his song 'Your Love' and they finally met at Igor Krutoy's birthday party and sang Ti Amo Cosi (composed by Igor Krutoy) together with Aida Garafulina: Lara is one of the best singers in the world, for me the most soulful singer! * Walter Afanassieff, *1958 in São Paulo, São Paulo, Brasilien. His family came to Brazil from Russia in the late 1940s. American music producer and songwriter from ASCAP. One of Afanasieff's biggest hits as a music producer was "My Heart Will Go On", the theme tune to the 1997 film Titanic, sung by Celine Dion. The song became the world's best-selling single of 1998. Afanasieff created music with Mariah Carey from 1990 to 2001 and he produced and arranged other motion picture soundtracks, including Disney's Beauty and the Beast (the Celine Dion/Peabo Bryson title-track duet), Aladdin ("A Whole New World") and The Hunchback of Notre Dame ("Someday"). Afanasieff was also the producer and arranger for "Go the Distance", the Oscar-nominated Michael Bolton song from the animated film Hercules.
Beautiful reaction Allison. It's hard to believe that someone put you in this position also. I have followed Lara since the nineties. She always makes me tear up. God Bless you and keep smiling. I have just subscribed.
Broken Vow was used by Harrison Craig in his blind audition for the Voice Australia. Maybe that’s where you heard it? When he did that, the song was wrongly credited to Josh Groban, who made a cover of this song, but the original (and best) version is Lara’s 😊
What you're hearing in her voice is your soul reconizing her own... it goes much further than just right here and right now.. I feel exactly the same.. Trust me I understand.. Absolutely beautiful reaction.. Thank you ❤🙏
Lara sang "For Always", in a solo version and then a duet version with Josh Groban: both are in the soundtrack of Steven Spielberg’s "A.I." movie. She also sang the love theme "The Dream Within" of the movie Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within. And she sang "Remember Me" the main theme song of the movie Cello. As for Disney, she sang the french version of the song God Helps the Outcasts (Dieu aide les exclus) in the french version of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Her interpretation was so good that they added her french version to the english and US setlist in the soundtrack CD. Her songs were used in the soundtrack of famous tv series in Brazil, Taiwan and Philippines as well…
I discovered her 3 months ago and god my life is not the same anymore , her songs and the woman that she is changed my life for something better , in a week i will see her perfoms for the first time of my life im definitely not ready to cry my heart out :c
I love Lara and in my opinion she’s one of the best singers of this generation,also I first heard this song by Josh Groban! One line in the so I never understood is where she says “I would give away my soul to hold you once Again”; it doesn’t sound like forgiveness to me; but personally I don’t forgive very easily if I’m treated badly in a relationship
Lara is so insane, love it! She just published her new album 2 weeks ago, just an other gem she ll be 55 in few weeks, and her voice and presence is even getting better( if thats possible) by far in a league of her own....
You open a huge rabbit hole with Lara; one of the best in the world. A top class Elite Singer, Performer, Story Teller, and truly a beautiful person. She has so many more songs taking your heart away. Love from Montreal,Canada home of Lara Fabian when she hone her skills as a student artist and home for Celine Dion. Both woman lived in the same city. We are bless and happy! Saw Lara preform here in Montreal on her world Tour in July of this year. I cannot find the words to express my joy and happiness that I was able to be in the same place where her performance was beyond expectation. A life time dream for me to see her.
OMG. I cried again. I have seen my Belgian sister more than a thousand times and she always gets me every time. She is so beautiful. And man, you are beautiful too!!❤
Love your reaction to Lara. In my opinion, Lara is the reigning Queen. No one does it live, better than Lara. However, there is a young and up and coming star named Lucy Thomas that you must check out, if you like Lara. Once Lara decides to hang it up, Lucy will move right into her spot. If you enjoy the emotional conveyance, voice control, breath support, beautiful rich tone and timbre you will enjoy Lucy. If like to get emotional when you listen to music, then you will enjoy Lucy.
It's not so kind to talk to a reaxtor for so long about another artist. You should respect Lara more. But I abusolutely agree about Lucy. You are forgiven
Okay, you've heard her sing in French, in English, and now it's time for Italian! "Caruso" has to be your next Lara Fabian reaction. I agree with you. How could anyone hurt someone like Lara .... or you, for that matter.♥
Excusez-moi mais c' est juste une petite remarque pas méchante ; elle ne s' appelle pas Lara Fabienne mais plutôt Lara FABIAN ; pour moi aussi elle est la meilleure chanteuse Francophone de ces dernières années et personne ne chante comme elle . Elle est majestueuse dans ses interprétations ; voilà ! Merci Nanou . Have a good day ( from France )
Alison, While it's possible that we both have a subconscious memory of her voice from the song "For Always" in Spielberg's 2001 film A. I. Artificial Intelligence, I have an alternative theory. When she sings in English, I think she often triggers occasional subconscious memories of Barbara Streisand. She doesn't copy Streisand, so you don't necessarily think "That sounds like Barbara." But enough echoes are there to trigger a deja vu experience. We know that she idolized Streisand as a child and that meeting her in person was one of her dreams come true. Just my two cents. Lara Fabian is the best singer in the history of recorded music with tons of epic performances. Check out Caruso, Adagio, You're Not From Here, I Guessed I Loved You, Perdere L'Amore, Requiem Pour Un Fou, and Tu Es Mon Autre. But the best of the best is the very special interrupted performance of Je t'aime (live in Paris, 2001). Her other songs show you a magnificent artist at the peak of her powers.This one shows you a Mahatma, a great-souled human being, receiving love from her audience and giving it right back to them in an absolutely exquisite display of mutual tenderness It's Lara favorite moment of her entire career.
When I first saw this video and heard her singing, I was pure and simply compelled to buy me the sheet music. I have done that (first time round) with any artist before. It's such a strikingly beautiful composition. Lara's voice is truly "music to my ears". She is my queen. Check out more of her songs, as well as various interviews to learn more about Lara Fabian's journey. Yes, tears were bound to come... A really lovely and warm reaction. I love it. ❤
THE GREATEST THE MOST POWERFUL THE COOLEST HIGH PITCH ANEGELIC VOICE IN THE 21ST CENTURY,,,,,,,,,,OF LARA FABIAN,,,,,,,,,she is my Idol and my mentor........ARK NOAH
Listen to everything she sings... every song, every phrase, every word, every motion/emotion. The Queen!!! put your eyeballs and earballs together because it is Lara Fabian, take the ride with us, it might be hard, but it's real.
Thanks for the reaction! You're right, her conversational voice is something soft, gentle that makes you want to touch it. Amazing performance, sensuality, full living of the story with Lara, I love it. I would like to recommend another amazing song performed by her, "Perdere L'Amour", as well as "Caruso", "Yentl Medley".Thanks
I cry every time I listen to it, the pain she went through, which brought her to write this beautiful emotional song. Listen to Adagio, you will love it!
Just a quick note to say she just released her brand new song last week, in the final of The Voice Kids France (she was a coach and her talent Tim won): this is a beautiful song titled Je t’ai cherché (I looked for you). Here is a rendition she made the day after in Belgium (I can’t forward the one from the final, as it is blocked in France by the TV channel): th-cam.com/video/3TMHuCILML0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared Her new album will be released on Nov 29. Also I strongly recommend to listen to this interview in english, if you have some time, and wants to feel how benevolent and wise she is. As the interviewer says: “my gosh, you have a unique way with words !” th-cam.com/video/jt_bcTKyPYc/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
"Broken Vow" would easily make a great Musical Show on Broadway. It has all the hallmarks of "Don't cry for me Argentina". Lara is in the vocal category of "LARA". she's definitely in a class of her own. So much more talented even than her top shelf singing. I would suggest you watch her video of "Adagio" I've been drawn back to that video at least 50 times !
A. You're amazing!!! B. You should do (by Lara): Je'taime live in Paris from 2001. Adagio live (from same concert) I will love again Caruso You're not from here She is f★cking brilliant and probably the BEST performer and vocalist to date. C. Greetings and ❤ from Israel.
I call it the Heart note. Emotionally your eyes get wet, but when your heart literally feels it, your heart is talking to you and your heart beats or flutters differently. At least that is the only way I can describe it. You'll know it when it happens again.
Your reaction is heartfelt and beautiful. I think Lara's voice is so special that she stirs feelings no one else can touch. Personally, I think she's the best singer on this planet (and perhaps others, too!). She spoke of forgiveness, and her facial expressions also hinted that she truly has forgiven the person who betrayed her. I have heard she is a wonderful human being - kind, loving, gracious, generous - it all comes through in her singing. She is truly extraordinary.
She's the best....
The only artist I've ever seen that consistently delivers so much emotion that it always just draws you in and it is as if she is singing to just you. Love your reaction🌹
I've watched this hundreds of times and I still cry like a baby every time, as I do with most of Lara's songs. No shame in it .
Glad to see you back....This one definitely gets you. I tear up everytime i listen....Take care of yourself ! Look forward to more Lara reactions...this concert series especially....there's a lot of WOW for you to hear....
Wonderful reaction, I feel with you. Lara has done this to me multiple times, and I'm not usually one that let's music get to me this way.
You'll note that it takes Lara several seconds to come out of the song, she was so deeply in it.
Alison you see many years aftr this interpretation ,and always grab every one by the heart , the emotion ,the feeling . It's ok to show your emotion . i had the same feeling thank you to react to our queen madam Lara Fabian .

Gracias por reaccionar ❤
I am so happy that you reacting Lara Again. Great Job
I truly believe that Lara's voice and her sincerity know how to reach inside us that intangible feeling we tend to forget in our daily lives.
Absolutely, couldn’t have said it better myself!
Gran reacción, Alison. Lara es un valioso tesoro que se está revelando. Ella es de las mejores de todos los tiempos (para mi gusto, la mejor)
Congratulations, you couldn't have made a better choice in returning to react in Lara's musical world, continue, you will always find so much feeling and sincerity in Lara. 🌺
So nice to watch you reacting to Queen Lara again. And, yes, her speaking voice is as melodic as her singing voice. 🤎 She’s all the way sublime and relatable at the same time! 👸🏼 No other singer/performer moves me the way Lara does. She’s really unique. So, don’t worry, I get you… And it’s quite possible that she’ll make you cry some other times… Don’t fight it. It’s worthless. 🤷🏻♀️

Tissues are never optional when listening to the Queen.
There is no need to apologize for your emotions. I am a 77 year old man and cannot watch her without having moist eyes and deep feelings. Thank you for this and your reaction.
Lara is the Queen. Everybody cries to this one the first time they hear it so don't feel bad. You really need to react to Adagio and Curuso.
Very beautiful song ❤very beautiful voice ❤very beautiful Lara ❤
She is the absolute master of emotions. I honestly don't know any other singer like her.
Lara is a masterclass
just a Queen. Great reaction
Beautiful reaction. I’m so sorry if it was triggering because of past hurt; however, you helped drive home the point that somethings are in fact universal: love and hurt, joy and sorrow.

Alison, not Allie...I have to tell you, I am a 75 yr old man, married for 30 years, divorced almost 20 yrs now. Fortunately my ex and I have a good relationship (I'll go do her lawn later this AM). I have heard Lara perform Broken several times and every time, including this morning, tears flow. Her tone and delivery crawl into my heart every time. The split was my fault. Guilt is difficult to deal with but life has to go forward and healing is on-going. The heart heals but doesn't forget.

This entire live concert... 'From Lara With Love'....is a just amazing. Another song along the same line..sort of....is Calling You ...live. Thanks for the reaction.

Tina even met her former french husband thanks to Patrick Fiori, the former boyfriend of Lara 😂
@@ericsicard910 .... surprised it hasn't already happened ... but that window may have closed...
Hey, Alison. Your reactions always move me. Thank you for always being your true genuine self here. When you said you know Lara's voice from your childhood, it made me listen differently than I usually do. And I heard some nuances/similarities to other great female vocalists that I heard often when I was young. The one that resonated most today was Barbra Streisand. Of course Lara is totally unique, but at least for a minute, I heard a young Barbara singing right along with her. Regardless, I can never listen to Lara without tears welling if not pouring. Thank you again for your heart felt reactions. Sending you a friendly hug for your recent struggles. Hang in there, my friend! xo
Oh my goodness. Barbara Streisand is what I was hearing. It’s just clicked in my head when I saw that name! You’re absolutely right. It’s those nuances in some of the notes. Right there when she drops into ‘more than a broken vow’ - she does have a truly individual voice though. Thank you so much for such a heartfelt comment, and thank you for making the lightbulb go off! 💡☺️
Thankfully doing a fair amount better now (but I’m on holidays overseas so hopefully everything back in reality at home will be back to normal soon)
Xx
Love Lara ❤
Love from Denmark ❤
She is THE BEST STORY TELLER in music. AMEN.
She does not suck as a vocalist too...😁
Lara is out of this world. Her voice is absolutely spectacular and her storytelling ability is just... insane. She feels every single word with her whole entire being and she lets us feel it too. She's incredible. This is her own original song, but even when she does covers (like "Je Suis Malade" which I know you've heard already) she completely transforms the songs into her own and she puts her whole heart and soul into them.
Thank you for this wonderful reaction. I hope you'll react to more Lara in the future. "Adagio" live from the same concert (in my opinion, Lara should always be experienced live) and also "Caruso" are both a must. And "Je T'aime" in Paris, when she was going through a really tough time in her life and the audience surprised her with so much love and support that she barely knew what to do with herself. Oh, and her "Yentl Medley". The video quality won't be the best, but her talent and performance certainly are!
Oh my God! Such a beautiful reaction!
Sono unfan di lara
What a beautiful heart-wrenching song. What a beautiful reaction and reactor. I'll let you know I'm a gay guy so you do not think I am perving. Many of us have not gone through this, but we all know what heartbreak feels like. Lara just lives her music and forces us to feel it. Lara moves me like nobody else. I know Lara is genuine and has gone through much of what she sings about, but she also is a very good actress. A few of her recordings show this. In many of her performances you can tell she knows exactly where all the cameras are because she often looks straight into your soul when singing for those of us who are not even there.
Thank you! Even editing it and watching it back I found myself needing to take breaks from how emotional it kept making me!
It’s truly a certain presence that not all singers or performers have, isn’t it? You can’t teach or learn that
Sorry to burst your bubble but Lara teaches her technics @@AlisonReacts

Hello Alison, here are some pieces of music from Lara you may have heard... Lara sang for Disney de French/English canadian version of the Hunchback of Notre-Dame. She also sang "Always" as the main track of the "AI" movie by Steven Spielberg. She was >50 weeks at the top of the charts in the US with the Song "I will love Again". She also sang the main track of a very famous soap opera in Brasil with the song called "Love by Grace"... Thanks for the reaction !
!!!! Okay we’re getting some connections! I will love again is probably it, but it could also be AI… I definitely think I remember her from Disney too, thank you for this!!☺️
Yes. She voiced Esmerelda in Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame - French version.
She and Josh Groben sang a duet for the Spielberg movie AI.
That could actually be it! I loved that film and I did travel over with the family as a child and watched a lot of Disney and tv that was in French!
I need to watch it again I haven’t seen it since I was a child!
@@AlisonReacts The version in French is actually the Canadian version.
To find out more about Lara
You have to watch one of these concerts in its entirety, because the interaction between Lara's songs and her audience is almost as important as her songs themselves.
It's hard to watch the whole thing as a reaction on TH-cam unless you're going to split it up.
But it can be done outside youtube.
En toute intimité is my favourite, and it's completely translated into English.
th-cam.com/video/NMHym4N4UXo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZwZueZ1-f9C2vTDb
Pour moi qui suis Français , Lara est depuis plusieurs années déjà , la meilleure chanteuse Francophone et jusqu' à ce jour personne ne l' a égalée , absolument personne ( dans la Francophonie of course ) . Merci Alison d' avoir accepté de l' écouter !! Have a good day !
❤❤I have Tears all Time when I hear her Songs and her wonderful Voice.❤❤
queen lara great reaction please do more of lara please x
One of the most beautifully written songs ever and that performance is just INCREDIBLE. Emotions, vocals, orchestra. On point. If it helps, she did the voice acting of Esmeralda in The hunchback of Notre Dam
She sang the soundtrack of AI Artificial Intelligence (For Always)
A heartfelt,beautiful reaction,Alison! Lara truly sings heart to heart and I could see her reach into yours. Thank you for sharing and I hope the “emotional time”you speak of is behind you! Sending love from an old lady in the USA!❤️❤️
Thank you for this lovely comment! Sending my best (also currently in the USA!)
@@AlisonReacts ❤️
Lara never just "sings" the song - she "inhabits" the song that she sings!
Its like she writes every word of every song she sings
You should never apologize for being emotional.. your reaction was as honest as her while singing that song.
I love Lara and I only found her music about 2 years ago, however I first heard this song from Josh Groban, even though it’s an original from Lara! I never could understand the verse where she sings I’d give away my soul to hold you once again, doesn’t sound like forgiveness to me and first of all I would never Forgive
This is Lara doing Lara things...She turns me to pudding every time. Great reaction. Thank you. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.❤
You may know her voice from a dance club song that was a hit. I will love again. This song may be the connection.
You can relax with most of Lara Fabian's performances uploaded to "TH-cam" and no worries in particular regarding the entirety of the "From Lara with Love" Concert playlist ..there are no 'copyright claims' being asserted. If you so desired, you could run/screen the performance straight through, uninterrupted - from start to finish with impunity all the while looking on sitting stone-faced and unmoved 😉
Thank you!!
I love Lara ❤❤❤ kisses from Italy 😘😘😘
🇨🇦 Another one done, only about 200 more to react to ! All the information you could possibly need can be found in the comments by Eric Sicard ! 🇨🇦
The music of Broken Vow was co-composed by Walter Afanassiev and Lara Fabian.
Walter Afanassiev, an american/brazilian from russian descent, is a legendary composer and producer (he co-composed some of the greatest initial hits of Mariah Carey such as All I Want for Christmas is You or Hero and was the producer of the Titanic soundtrack that increased Celine Dion WW fame). He is produced a song for Dimash among others.
When this song was composed, Walter and Lara were engaged, they were living in San Francisco’s bay area, but apparently he cheated and she decided to break up. When she took this decision, that she knew would dramatically change both her personal and professional destiny, she wrote these incredible lyrics.
Lara has said this is her preferred english song from all the songs she wrote in this language (there are many, and some are pure jewels).
One reason is also because this song has then been covered by the greatests:
- Barbra Streisand (she performed it in concerts from one of her tour but never recorded it),
- Josh Groban (his cover made this song famous in US, she is her friend and role model and he made several duets with her),
- Linda Eder,
- Cakra Khan,
- Gigi de Lana,
- Regine Velasquez,
- Almira (from 4th Impact),
- Katrina Velarde,
- Julie Anne San Jose,
- Sarah Geronimo,
- Morissette Amon,
- Petra Berger,
- Harrison Craig,
- Rimar,
- Jackie Evancho,
- …
For Jackie Evancho, and at the request of Jackie's parents who found the original lyrics were not a good fit for a young girl, Lara rewrote Broken Vow in french as "Imaginer" with a complete different meaning.
But the original from Lara remains the absolute reference
th-cam.com/video/kJBGCI8aSE4/w-d-xo.html
Eric!! Thank you so much for this info!
What is the meaning Eric of mentioning this fcking bastard Walter A? All he did was to complete her USA nightmare and help her come very close to suicidal thoughts. Lara wants to forget everything about him, why don't you do the same and let him be forgoten? Take care ❤
@@AlisonReactsyup, Eric has done it again… fabulous presence!
She was the voice of Esmeralda in Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". Maybe this is what you recognize?
She was the animated voice of Esmeralda in the French Canadian film itself and also recorded the French Canadian pop version of the song God Help The Outcasts. It is truly beautiful.
Demi Moore was the voice of Esmeralda in the hunchback, not Lara
@@michaelhartley7073 My bad. You are absolutely right🥴. I wanted to talk about the singed part but it's not Lara Fabian in the US version either. She dubbed the entire thing in the Quebec version only😊.
@@michaelhartley7073 Actually Demi Moore was only the speaking voice. Heidi Mollenhauer sang Esmeralda's vocals in the American version of the animated feature film. Lara was indeed the singing voice of Esmeralda in the French Canadian version of the film and also recorded the French Canadian pop version of God Help The Outcasts. Hope this helps clarify everything.
Alison, I knew this song would get to you. Thank you for reviewing this song, it makes me cry every time I listen to it. Such a wonderfully written song by someone with a true loving heart.
Love your reaction, I know this one came also from your soul.
Alison Lara is in my opinion the best women performer on planet earth.There are other good performers also but she is a stelar performer that has total control of her voice and she can move her audience we relate to her story songs. She is my favorite performer. She lives or lived about 30 minutes from where i live Montreal Quebec Canada. she is compared to Celine Dion. Lara has a angelic voice like a murmaid . what a talented women. :)
Love Lara. Love from Mexico
I love your videos because you don't hesitate to show your emotions
Thank you! Unfortunately you get the odd few who can’t stand that but eh!🤷🏻♀️ I try to live pretty authentically! So thank you for appreciating it
👉 This song was covered by Josh Groban and … Barbra Streisand.
But this is an original from Lara. She also wrote the lyrics. She co-composed the music with Walter Afanassiev, she was engaged to him and he betrayed her. So she broke and wrote these lyrics on top of the music they made.
* Lara Fabian, *1970, is a world famous Belgian-Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, actress and producer. She is Belgian but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicily). She grew up in both countries and therefore speaks both French and Italian as her mother tongue. She was classically trained in singing, piano and song composition for 10 years (from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
To this day she has singing lessons and trains several times a week. She started her career in Canada in the early 1990s. She now lives in Montreal and also has Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in 4 languages (French, Italian, English, Spanish) and has sung in a total of 12 languages. She has sold over 20 million records worldwide as of September 2017 and is one of the best-selling Belgian artists of all time.
In 2000, Lara launched her triumphal procession in the US, but a falling out with Sony over her artistic direction and the will of Celine Dion's management to block her path to the US thwarted that plan.
She therefore focused on Europe again and had great success there, expanding her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her many years of collaboration with Igor Krutoy. She's also a star in Brazilia.
Many of their songs are now classics and are covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban...
The US is now rediscovering her through her covers of Lara Fabian songs.
She is Dimash's idol. He has covered some of her songs. She also wrote the lyrics to his song 'Your Love' and they finally met at Igor Krutoy's birthday party and sang Ti Amo Cosi (composed by Igor Krutoy) together with Aida Garafulina:
Lara is one of the best singers in the world, for me the most soulful singer!
* Walter Afanassieff, *1958 in São Paulo, São Paulo, Brasilien. His family came to Brazil from Russia in the late 1940s. American music producer and songwriter from ASCAP.
One of Afanasieff's biggest hits as a music producer was "My Heart Will Go On", the theme tune to the 1997 film Titanic, sung by Celine Dion. The song became the world's best-selling single of 1998.
Afanasieff created music with Mariah Carey from 1990 to 2001 and he produced and arranged other motion picture soundtracks, including Disney's Beauty and the Beast (the Celine Dion/Peabo Bryson title-track duet), Aladdin ("A Whole New World") and The Hunchback of Notre Dame ("Someday"). Afanasieff was also the producer and arranger for "Go the Distance", the Oscar-nominated Michael Bolton song from the animated film Hercules.
Lara is truly one of the greatest female vocalists. Yes, she should have been as successful as The Trinity.
Beautiful reaction Allison. It's hard to believe that someone put you in this position also. I have followed Lara since the nineties. She always makes me tear up. God Bless you and keep smiling. I have just subscribed.
Broken Vow was used by Harrison Craig in his blind audition for the Voice Australia.
Maybe that’s where you heard it?
When he did that, the song was wrongly credited to Josh Groban, who made a cover of this song, but the original (and best) version is Lara’s 😊
More Lara ❤
What you're hearing in her voice is your soul reconizing her own... it goes much further than just right here and right now.. I feel exactly the same..
Trust me I understand..
Absolutely beautiful reaction..
Thank you ❤🙏
Lara sang "For Always", in a solo version and then a duet version with Josh Groban: both are in the soundtrack of Steven Spielberg’s "A.I." movie.
She also sang the love theme "The Dream Within" of the movie Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within.
And she sang "Remember Me" the main theme song of the movie Cello.
As for Disney, she sang the french version of the song God Helps the Outcasts (Dieu aide les exclus) in the french version of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Her interpretation was so good that they added her french version to the english and US setlist in the soundtrack CD.
Her songs were used in the soundtrack of famous tv series in Brazil, Taiwan and Philippines as well…
She's one in a million
I discovered her 3 months ago and god my life is not the same anymore , her songs and the woman that she is changed my life for something better , in a week i will see her perfoms for the first time of my life im definitely not ready to cry my heart out :c
Oh my goodness! Report back with how it is!!!! I can only imagine the overwhelming emotions that will hit! I’d be ready with tissues, and no mascara!
I love Lara and in my opinion she’s one of the best singers of this generation,also I first heard this song by Josh Groban! One line in the so I never understood is where she says “I would give away my soul to hold you once Again”; it doesn’t sound like forgiveness to me; but personally I don’t forgive very easily if I’m treated badly in a relationship
Lara is so insane, love it! She just published her new album 2 weeks ago, just an other gem she ll be 55 in few weeks, and her voice and presence is even getting better( if thats possible) by far in a league of her own....
You open a huge rabbit hole with Lara; one of the best in the world. A top class Elite Singer, Performer, Story Teller, and truly a beautiful person. She has so many more songs taking your heart away. Love from Montreal,Canada home of Lara Fabian when she hone her skills as a student artist and home for Celine Dion. Both woman lived in the same city. We are bless and happy! Saw Lara preform here in Montreal on her world Tour in July of this year. I cannot find the words to express my joy and happiness that I was able to be in the same place where her performance was beyond expectation. A life time dream for me to see her.
OMG. I cried again. I have seen my Belgian sister more than a thousand times and she always gets me every time. She is so beautiful.
And man, you are beautiful too!!❤
Love your reaction to Lara. In my opinion, Lara is the reigning Queen. No one does it live, better than Lara. However, there is a young and up and coming star named Lucy Thomas that you must check out, if you like Lara. Once Lara decides to hang it up, Lucy will move right into her spot. If you enjoy the emotional conveyance, voice control, breath support, beautiful rich tone and timbre you will enjoy Lucy. If like to get emotional when you listen to music, then you will enjoy Lucy.
It's not so kind to talk to a reaxtor for so long about another artist. You should respect Lara more. But I abusolutely agree about Lucy. You are forgiven
Okay, you've heard her sing in French, in English, and now it's time for Italian! "Caruso" has to be your next Lara Fabian reaction. I agree with you. How could anyone hurt someone like Lara .... or you, for that matter.♥
Lara Fabienne the best the queen
Excusez-moi mais c' est juste une petite remarque pas méchante ; elle ne s' appelle pas Lara Fabienne mais plutôt Lara FABIAN ; pour moi aussi elle est la meilleure chanteuse Francophone de ces dernières années et personne ne chante comme elle . Elle est majestueuse dans ses interprétations ; voilà ! Merci Nanou . Have a good day ( from France )
@@citoy7359 oui je sais c'est l'écriture automatique du téléphone je m'en suis aperçue après, toutes mes excuses
Alison,
While it's possible that we both have a subconscious memory of her voice from the song "For Always" in Spielberg's 2001 film A. I. Artificial Intelligence, I have an alternative theory. When she sings in English, I think she often triggers occasional subconscious memories of Barbara Streisand. She doesn't copy Streisand, so you don't necessarily think "That sounds like Barbara." But enough echoes are there to trigger a deja vu experience. We know that she idolized Streisand as a child and that meeting her in person was one of her dreams come true. Just my two cents.
Lara Fabian is the best singer in the history of recorded music with tons of epic performances. Check out Caruso, Adagio, You're Not From Here, I Guessed I Loved You, Perdere L'Amore, Requiem Pour Un Fou, and Tu Es Mon Autre.
But the best of the best is the very special interrupted performance of Je t'aime (live in Paris, 2001).
Her other songs show you a magnificent artist at the peak of her powers.This one shows you a Mahatma, a great-souled human being, receiving love from her audience and giving it right back to them in an absolutely exquisite display of mutual tenderness It's Lara favorite moment of her entire career.
Felicitaciones, gran reaccion....por favor, "perdere l amore"...se luce....
When I first saw this video and heard her singing, I was pure and simply compelled to buy me the sheet music. I have done that (first time round) with any artist before. It's such a strikingly beautiful composition.
Lara's voice is truly "music to my ears". She is my queen.
Check out more of her songs, as well as various interviews to learn more about Lara Fabian's journey.
Yes, tears were bound to come... A really lovely and warm reaction. I love it. ❤
THE GREATEST THE MOST POWERFUL THE COOLEST HIGH PITCH ANEGELIC VOICE IN THE 21ST CENTURY,,,,,,,,,,OF LARA FABIAN,,,,,,,,,she is my Idol and my mentor........ARK NOAH
Listen to everything she sings... every song, every phrase, every word, every motion/emotion. The Queen!!! put your eyeballs and earballs together because it is Lara Fabian, take the ride with us, it might be hard, but it's real.
BEAUTIFUL.......!!!!
You're so beautiful.... beautiful reaction...so emotional....love it.
Hugs and best wishes ....from Chile.
Thanks for the reaction! You're right, her conversational voice is something soft, gentle that makes you want to touch it. Amazing performance, sensuality, full living of the story with Lara, I love it. I would like to recommend another amazing song performed by her, "Perdere L'Amour", as well as "Caruso", "Yentl Medley".Thanks
I cry every time I listen to it, the pain she went through, which brought her to write this beautiful emotional song. Listen to Adagio, you will love it!
Just à big big thank's... and ❤❤❤❤🫂🫂🫂
Mlle. Fabian est une Belgique/Canadienne and we are incredibly proud of her
di mamma Italiana e ha vissuto tutta la sua infanzia in SICILIA!!!!! parla anche benissimo il SICILIANO !!!!
Just a quick note to say she just released her brand new song last week, in the final of The Voice Kids France (she was a coach and her talent Tim won): this is a beautiful song titled Je t’ai cherché (I looked for you).
Here is a rendition she made the day after in Belgium (I can’t forward the one from the final, as it is blocked in France by the TV channel): th-cam.com/video/3TMHuCILML0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Her new album will be released on Nov 29.
Also I strongly recommend to listen to this interview in english, if you have some time, and wants to feel how benevolent and wise she is.
As the interviewer says: “my gosh, you have a unique way with words !”
th-cam.com/video/jt_bcTKyPYc/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Watch " tu es mon autre " with mauranne and Lara version with acoustic guitar in 2003 in olympia its fantastic duo, wonderfull song !
❤️❤️❤️
You may have heard her popsong “I will love again” which was released in 1999🥰
yes it s very good !!!!!! Watch "je t'aime" in live in 1999 , i think you gonna like it
"Broken Vow" would easily make a great Musical Show on Broadway. It has all the hallmarks of "Don't cry for me Argentina". Lara is in the vocal category of "LARA". she's definitely in a class of her own. So much more talented even than her top shelf singing. I would suggest you watch her video of "Adagio" I've been drawn back to that video at least 50 times !
…and suddenly she turns around and come back anew……yup
Lara❤
A. You're amazing!!!
B. You should do (by Lara):
Je'taime live in Paris from 2001.
Adagio live (from same concert)
I will love again
Caruso
You're not from here
She is f★cking brilliant and probably the BEST performer and vocalist to date.
C. Greetings and ❤ from Israel.
The most Beautiful voice on earth ❤
I call it the Heart note. Emotionally your eyes get wet, but when your heart literally feels it, your heart is talking to you and your heart beats or flutters differently. At least that is the only way I can describe it. You'll know it when it happens again.
Good singers make you feel, great singers take you on the journey with them.
