This one was extra emotional for Dan as he recorded it 3 months after his father passed from cancer. If you watch closely you can see how he struggles with tears near the end. No wonder with these lyrics 😢
Love this song by Dan Dan. As you say, he emotes his feelings and becomes the song. He connects totally with the song and takes you with him. You can not help but feel that you are in the presence of a kind, caring man.
The original had me in tears. Dan’s version had me close to tears. The first dozen times I listened to Dan’s Amazing Grace, I had tears streaming down my face. No negativity intended. Never mind 🥺😢
Dan was thinking about his dad when he did this song. That's partly why it's so powerful and emotional. Just three months before this, in October2017, Dan lost his dad to cancer and did An American Trilogy as an homage to him just a few days later. Excellent reaction to another excellent cover from Dan.
The other day I was listening to this while driving and had tears running down my face. I’ve listened to it many times but on that particular day, the song really touched me. Dan has a way of just captivating you and making you feel the story. Can’t get enough of Dan’s music.
This rendition of Dan's had me tearing up, his voice is so beautiful when singing ballads.❤ Its like when a person sees or hears something so breathtakingly beautiful that it actually physically hurts, this is what happens to me when Dan sings this way. Thank you for this wonderful reaction, you articulate so well what makes Dan Vasc such an incomparable vocalist!❤❤ ❤
Hola desde Argentina! Soy una nueva suscriptora y me encanta ver sus reacciones... y compartimos el amor por Dan... por eso le sugiero que reaccione a Getsemaní... y verá un cantante de Broadway.... excelente actor!!! Le mando un abrazo a la distancia!...😊
Dan can sing it all a am personalia fav. of Dan sings Son of pain and this you react to now he is going right to your heart 😭😭💘💘thanks for your great reaction hugs from Norway 🫂🫂
Thank you for your touching heartfelt reaction to this beautiful ballad. Only Dan Vasc could bring it to life in this way. Having bid farewell to my mother just a year ago he touched my heart where it needed to be touched. He just puts so much heart and emotion into everything he sings, and even in his talking to us. And, like you said, whether it is a ballad sound like this or a strong metal sound he just puts his heart and soul into everything he does and brings the power of music to us. Keep moving forward #VascNation!
Another song I highly recommend is "You Are Loved (Don't Give Up) by Josh Groban.... No metal here either... Recorded 6 years ago. Sung so beautifully 💕
I'm at 7:05 in your reaction video, and I'm loving it! I've just subscribed and liked this video (which I NEVER do before a reaction video has been completed, but what you've just said has been excellent, and I agree. Dan definitely becomes an incredible storyteller. I've been saying (since I first heard him sing "Amazing Grace), that Dan is a "true and perfect bard." That's exactly what the bards of old did. They took the news and told it in ways that stirred up the people they visited, in whichever way was intended. Sometimes the call was for peace, and/or for joy. Other times, the call was for war. At times, the call was a time for mourning. A GOOD bard not only had the correct information to hand out, but he handed it out in a meaningful manner to every different audience he had. In order to do that, he would have to have had prior knowledge of the way he was going to be received, and how the NEWS was going to be received, at every place along his way. Dan does that. The songs he chooses don't always please EVERYONE, but they are designed to meet the needs of the day, and he will always "tell it the way it is," with no hesitation. He also totally understands what the older metal music is about, and he takes advantage of it, not just because he loves to SING it, but because he holds the same values that are "coded" into the language of those songs. Dan is a WARRIOR...steadfast, and very sure of his own values (which are really good ones). Before I get back into this reaction...I've already checked through your catalog of existing Dan reactions, and I see that you haven't yet reacted to any of Dan's most recent offerings since "Amazing Grace. There are four of them... (1) "Where the Eagles Fly" was posted on March 12, 2023 (slightly over a month out from when "Amazing Grace was Posted." However, it wasn't posted on Dan's channel, though it's an original, for which Dan wrote the lyrics and Ricardo Confessori wrote the music. It's on Ricardo's channel, and it's wonderful. Ricardo also placed the lyrics in his Description. Every word and line is from scripture, and I would challenge you to figure out which ones, and which images the words represent, for our world today. (2) "The Number of the Beast" (yes...Iron Maiden music...extremely well done). You will find it presented quite differently than anything else in Dan's catalog. I don't know where you stand, regarding belief in God, or how you think about the book of "The Revelation of Jesus," or what you might think about that "number" in the Bible, but I would be more than willing to fill in some of that, to show exactly what Dan's aim was for singing that song, which is EXTREMELY well done. We were informed (on Dan's account on Instagram) that when the song came out, it would "melt our faces." It did! WOW! (3) "O Holy Night" I'm not going to say anything else about it, except that if you loved his "Amazing Grace," I think you will ALSO love Dan's version of "O Holy Night." I think you are already probably aware that Dan LOVES to present little surprises, and more than likely, you already know that tiny little bit of a "saucy" smile he gets, when he knows he's going to do something that the general audience does NOT expect. Yeah... (4) "My Heart Will Go On." Dan's message about THAT one (from just a few weeks back, now) was, "We'll put some hair on Celine Dion's chest. SOON." I hope you'll react to it soon. I think you will absolutely love it. I'm not requesting any of these, just letting you know about them, in case you aren't aware of them. - - - - - - - - - - Back into the reaction... Actually, Dan only plays guitar a little bit, but he can play enough to use it with his mixing software. He also plays the harmonica (from what his brother Davi says, they both have a bunch of them, given to them by their dad, over the years), and he can do keys if necessary, though (as with the guitar-playing), he mostly only uses them for inputting to his software. Mostly when he's arranging music (with which he does such a WONDERFUL job), mostly he uses MIDI. You can pick up a lot of information about Dan in the video that was produced during his nearly-three-hour 500,000 subs party, from May 28, 2021 (it's on Odysee). You can also find out a lot of things on Instagram. - - - - - - - - - - Have finished watching/listening, and I'm very impressed. I'll be back, for sure. Thank you! I'm going to check through more of your reactions to Dan's work (I've already brought them all up). I rather think I'll be joining your Patreon (I went and checked it out already, but I want to hear a few more reactions before I decide).
Another song by Dan from The Hobbit is I See Fire. In that one he shows how adept he is at layering and it's a joy to watch. Been a Dan fan for several years and will be to my last breath.
Agreed! I did the INKTOBER 2023 challenge, and two of my drawings are Dan-connected. The first one is the drawing of a lion roaring, for the prompt "BEAST," and it has scriptures connected. The other one is the final prompt "FIRE." For that one, I drew Dan, himself. If you'd like to see them, I have the challenge linked under my banner.
This is my all time favourite rendition by Dan . Went down the rabbit hole this past Easter . He is an exceptional y gifted singer . Thanks for your reaction .
Dan singing this quiet tender ballad is just as powerful, as when he stands as a warrior belting at the top of his lungs. This song is heartbreaking in its beauty. If i was to die tomorrow, i would want this and Amazing Grace to be played.
Dan’s voice is so exceptional, there are no words. He has one of the two best voices I’ve ever heard. He expertly conveys so much emotion. Thank you for your enthusiastic reaction! I subscribed, and by the way have you reacted to Dan’s Music of the of the Night from Phantom or his Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar? His version of these songs always blow me away, no matter how many times I hear them.
Speak for yourself, and maybe not in such a rude way. Not everyone in that "WE," feels that way. I, for one, really enjoyed Jimmy's reaction, just the way it was, and so did everyone else, here, that I've seen...except you. This is the first one I've watched & heard, but I liked it a lot, and I have all his other DAN reactions queued, just waiting for me to react to each reaction. 😀
I listen to Dan singing this every night. He's an amazing beautiful, young man with a beautiful soul.
This one was extra emotional for Dan as he recorded it 3 months after his father passed from cancer. If you watch closely you can see how he struggles with tears near the end. No wonder with these lyrics 😢
Definitely can feel the emotions while he is singing this song... Can't imagine losing a parent so young 💔❤️🩹
I heard always appreciate your comments. Thank you.
Only beautiful things from Dan
Love this song by Dan Dan. As you say, he emotes his feelings and becomes the song. He connects totally with the song and takes you with him. You can not help but feel that you are in the presence of a kind, caring man.

Masterpiece by Dan 🔥
His voice paints pictures when he sings . So touching . I would love to hear Morning Has Broken by Dan Vasc.
I agree! 😀
Dan was thinking about his dad when he did this song. That's partly why it's so powerful and emotional. Just three months before this, in October2017, Dan lost his dad to cancer and did An American Trilogy as an homage to him just a few days later.

Great reaction! Dan has become my all time favorite singer. There is no one else who comes close to his amazing talent.

I'm now starting to skid with my favorites, I have so many of them 😂.... ❤
I know the feeling! 😀
Another beautiful slow song of Dan’s is Loch Lomand.
It’s a beautiful rendition and I hope it gets more reactions
@chrissynovful Dan's rendition is hauntingly beautiful and hearing Gabriel sing the chorus with Dan is a treat too.
I love that song as well :-)😊
Another is “Love Me Tender”. Or “For All”. Both beautifully sung.
@@terryeallen-stoda2152 Agreed! Plus, it was their first outdoor recording session, and they did SO well with it.
"Dan becomes the story"...YES! He has the soul of a Bard!
Absolutely! I was just saying that, in my own comment! 😀
Dan has a voice like no other. He is the master of everything he sings for us.
Very sensitive, soulfull, beautiful, indeed! Wonderful reactions of this amazing performer! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Really beautiful, moving and heartfelt performance! He is so masterful with everything he sings. Thank you for a great reaction.
Dear Dan, Your Dad is looking down on you and is so proud of you. Love you. Hugs for comfort.

Just Very touching & Beautifully preformed ❤🎉😢😊
So beautiful xx❤
Thanks so much for your wonderful reaction to this beautiful song from Dan. Looking forward to seeing more from him soon. 🙋🏼♀️ 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Jimmy, I love this song and Dan does it so beautifully. I also love your reaction. I’ll be pondering my next request 😊
He is a truly amazing artist. It's his ability to feel the songs and not just sing them.
This is my all time favourite rendition by Dan . Went down the rabbit hole this past Easter . He is an exceptional y gifted singer . Thanks for your reaction .
I think you need to react to Dan Vasc singing “The Song of the White Wolf.” It is fantastic.
Oh, YES, PLEASE!
Dan has a Band called "Fearless."
Your review was absolutely beautiful. Thank you. Dan is
a great person.
Dan singing this quiet tender ballad is just as powerful, as when he stands as a warrior belting at the top of his lungs.
This song is heartbreaking in its beauty.
If i was to die tomorrow, i would want this and Amazing Grace to be played.
This was my first time hearing this song from Dan Vasc. Wow, just beautiful. Thank you for doing this song.
I think that you are the most beautiful person. You put yourself in every song. Very touching song. Made me cry.

OH my😢 REMINDS ME OF SAYING GOODBYE TO MY FATHER WHO I LOST IN 2007... SOOOO BEAUTYFUL DAN✌❤
I don’t know if you’ve seen it yet but his version of Gethsemane from JC Superstar could make him a Broadway sensation. He has enriched my life.
Great reaction. Beautiful song
Beautiful choice!
Thanks 🙏🏼 😊
This he did shortly after the loss of his dad to cancer.
His brother and a friend play guitar on a lot of his videos.
Oh please mr
Blahblah. We want to hear DAN
Hmmm…. Karen.🤔
