Boy, when I saw it for the first time, I think in 2005 or 2006, I said to myself, where was I when this was happening? Being a professional musician, had I had the luxury of not hearing this angel in the body of this beautiful woman? I immediately cried when I heard her sing. Today I was just playing this on the piano and I saw her in my mind, whispering, feeling, crying, screaming. You can't sing better. I really think there is no way
Je l'ai vu en concert juste quelque semaines avant la pandémie de 2020. Je peux vous dire que la vidéo n'est rien à côté de ce qu'elle dégage vraiment en concert... elle fait chanter le public également.... A la fin du concert... j'avais l'impression d'être sur une autre planète... Sa voix est un diamant brut. En plus, elle fait des master class pour de jeunes chanteurs et dévoile toute sa technique de chant pour faire passer les notes les plus dures comme quelques choses de naturelles. Pour cette chanson, il est difficile de résister aux larmes, à l'émotion qu'elle y met en la chantant... même elle verse sa larme en la chantant. Merci pour elle de votre analyse si bienveillante à son encontre.
agree with every word written by peter pelletier (below) and I am 80. Gorgeous human being who has battled Cancer, I think twice and other major health issues in addition to having more angst than one person should have for other reasons than medical. Finished 4th in contest at age 19 won by Celine Dion but does not explain being unknown in USA. Plus, I have never ever seen or heard a singer with the ability to convey such a gorgeous sound mixed with emotion that drowns you in oceans of tears.
I'm 72, a former musician and hard core heavy metal and hard rock fan my whole life. Discovered Lara watching reaction videos. A reaction to Je Suis Malade popped up and completely changed what I listen to. Never has anyone in the music industry affected me like this woman. It's a damn shame what the recording industry here in the states did to her, basically depriving us of one of the best voices EVER. I like your basic superstars that need no mention here from reputation alone, but I'm not at all embarrassed to say that none of them chokes me up like this woman. I feel every note this woman sings. She makes me want to cry when I hear her sing. Not to mention she is one of the most beautiful women on the planet, inside and out.
Peter, I saw many comment from other heavy or hard rock metal fans that fall under Lara’s spell in the same way you did. And thinking about it, I’m not surprised, it is more consistent than how it looks first. I believe you are attracted to raw and sincere stories and emotions. That’s what attracted you to metal, heavy or hard rock 🤘. Now the same happens with Lara as she is the ultimate raw and sincere performer and emotional powerhouse on stage.
I think I have written the same words. As a professional musician most of my life I found Lara while watching reaction videos two years ago. Since then I just can't get enough. I have performed with some very famous singers over the years, including recordings, movies, television, operas and musicals, but Lara is the only one who makes me tear up on a regular basis.
Also, let's give gigantic props to all the musicians that play with her. Every configuration of groups behind her whether or not a full orchestra or just a basic band are all excellent. Pierre on piano with her in the concert with just him, the 3 violinists and the cello has to be some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Never have I heard a piano and a singer so in synch as they were.
@@peterpelletier176 Great point. Pierre Grimard was particularly good with Lara. Her En Toute Intimite concert represented, in my opinion, the pinnacle of her expressive power. Partly because it was "naked".... no big bands, or props, just Lara with Pierre and the string quartet. Cheers!
I'm listening to this again one year later. I think I finally understand why Lara is my favorite performer of all time. She has had an emotionally difficult life and as a human being she has flaws like everyone...but, in all of her insecurities and questioning herself, she has turned everything she is into perfection. I do not believe there is a more complete performer on the planet. There is just no one else in her league. Her artistry is one of a kind. When she is performing she is the most beautiful woman, the greatest singer, and her wisdom and feelings are synthesized into timeless art. And now, in her fifties, she still has a magical glow that identifies her undeniable mastery of the art of performing. Since first hearing her almost three years ago, I still listen to her every day...because I have to.
This song hits me so hard every time I watch it. It fills me we utter terror, to think how close she got to leave this world behind. To think, that her magical ray of light in this world was almost extinguished. To know how deep her desperation, her anguish, her hopelessness was. To know that there are people out there who were capable to hurt her so much, that she lost her will to live. I'm a few months older than Lara, I've been her devoted fan since '94, I was a singer until my mid-forties, and I've never seen anyone singing like Lara does. Not even close. Not even in the same galaxy. There were/are great singers with incredible vocals, from Piaf to Callas, to Streisand to Aretha to the trio of Whitney, Mariah and Celine. Still, none of them were able to bare their souls with every single song like Lara does every single time. She doesn't sing to be admired or to be worshipped like most the so-called divas out there. Lara tells us a story, she reaches out to her audience to take the journey with her. Every note, every breath, every glance, every gesture comes from deep within. Her magic is her incredible gift to touch our heart and soul by her honesty, her warmth, her empathy and love that just radiates from her like a beacon of light in complete darkness.
There is an old saying..."beauty is only skin deep". Meaning outside appearance can be deceptive. But when your beautiful on the inside your beautiful on the outside. Of course Lara has it all. I learned about her from her singing with Dimash. I love her voice!! She draws you in with her story telling and holds you with her outstanding voice.
I lived in Quebec, Canada for 16 years and heard Lara's name and probably heard her songs but I didn't realize she was this amazing. Saw a reaction video 3 weeks ago and now I am a big Lara fan. ❤ My playlist on Spotify is all Lara these days. 😍 This song actually made me cry tonight. Thank you Lara. Much love from Sweden. ❤
she is unique, sometimes if you privilege the technique, lose the interpretation or if you privilege interpretation, the technique is not perfect. She is the only one in the world who is perfect in technique and interpretation and then she is a wonderful person who has also suffered you can only love her. congratulations on your reactions
I never saw her so deeply desparate and so extremely happy, so expressive and free and passionate than she was in Paris concert 2001. That's why I consider it by far the concert of her life. Because she lived a whole life that night on the scene. I also never saw so deep love from an audience to an artist. And it was not only the "Je t'aime" song, the audience was incredible throughout the whole concert. A concert you haven't presented yet to us as a whole like others have done. And I also never saw an artist being so much affected by an audience. That night was almost a psychotherapy for her and her struggling with suicidal thoughts. She changed her mind and decided that maybe this life worths living. I don't understand what the hell she is doing so many years in Canada, a country so close to her SONY tragedy in USA and so far away from her parents, her birthplace and birthplace of her husband. Of course some French journalists etc mistreated her in her beginning as an artist but if I was Lara I suppose I would live in Paris to express my gratitude to the unbelievable love I experienced in the 2001 concert. Congratulations for your increasing subscribers, from 8 thousands they became 24 thousands within a year. Hugs Greece
Final words: you are absolutely spot on on your comments on Lara ability to forget about herself or her appearance to become the character. Telling the story is her absolute mission and she is 1000% committed to it.
One could be so fortunate to have someone feel that way about you in their lifetime ....it's all i've ever wanted and far from reach...in this lifetime.
Parceque tu pars is "because you're leaving", it's about suicide and its consequences. She wrote it about herself. She used "you" instead of "i", she was talking to herself. I love this song and this performance, so powerful.
You're spot on! when she says "on cassera la gueule à ce coup du destin qui rend seul" she's basically saying that she'll get through this hardship that left her alone in total pain.
I was in the audience all 3 nights during the filming of this concert, and each night left me exhausted, but in the best way possible. This concert cemented me as a Lara fan for life. She's just incredible. For another amazing interpretation of this song, check out the fancam footage of the "Parcque Tu Pars" duet with Harel Skaat. It's fantastic! m.th-cam.com/video/AK3fkwQlxHQ/w-d-xo.html
Lyrics translated in english: Everything seems pointless When we don't even fear anymore All the reasons3 To stay are theirs Nothing is holding you back Specially not happiness When you don't search anymore Time is out I am here to not regret the absence of the words and the links that hinder the silent tell me please what we'll too late see Is the last confession This gaze? Cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll remain broken before the irreparable cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll hold close the unbearable cause you are leaving Swear that this failure Is not your future What had bug you Forget it to choose yourself And if you want we'll break the face of this destiny that leads to be lonely Cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll remain broken before the irreparable cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll hold close the unbearable cause you are leaving Cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll questionne every inavoidable day cause you are leaving cause you are leaving we'll hold close the unbearable cause you are leaving
First of all, I'm french.I'm in my sixties. And, I'm ashamed, I discovered Lara Fabian recently by accident. I was looking for Maria Callas singing "casta diva". A song that gives me chills. And, in the maze of youtube emerges a voice, sincere emotions and incandescent beauty, Lara. Since then, I'm addicted. I'm waiting for all reactions. Especially from Brandon. The most moving ones. Thank you. What more can I say. Just look at her and listen to her.
@@ildefonsobenitez6624. Une question. Pourquoi suis je passé à côté de cette incroyable chanteuse? ma réponse, le microcosme parisien qui décide de ce qu'il faut écouter, lire, voir a participé à nuire à son image. heureusement, les enregistrements de ses magnifiques concerts actuellement accessibles en ligne rétablissent une forme de justice au moins artistique. bon voyage dans son œuvre.
@@dume2b461 En ce qui me concerne, l'influence des médias et critiques musicaux parisiens n'ont pas eut d'emprise sur mes goûts. J'ai toujours sut que Lara était une grande chanteuse mais durant toutes ces années j'ai préféré écouter Aznavour, Julien Clerc, souchon....Mais aujourd'hui Lara Fabian s'est révélé à moi à cause des confinements et grâce à TH-cam. Musicalement, je rattrape le temps perdu. Je n'écoute qu'elle. Jai acheté tous ses albums et j'irai la voir en concert en septembre. Je me suis replongé assidument dans sa discographie qui est magnifique et j'ai découvert des chansons sublimes qui m'étaient inconnues. Maintenant je suis fan pour toujours !
@@ildefonsobenitez6624 . Ce que je voulais dire , c'est qu'ils l'ont rendue invisible. moi aussi, j'écoutais du plus "classique". et de plus, je vis dans une région qui a une vieille tradition de chants à "voix".
SHE WROTE IT! LARA with links: Lara Fabian is a Canadian of Belgium birth and Italian/Franco/Flemish cultural heritage.

This is certainly an out-of-world experience, being in the presence of this human being's delicate and sensitive, yet powerful projection of raw emotion. It must have been such a privilege seeing this live. Even through the screen, it just makes you gasp because she becomes the conduit that connects you with places and energies inside you that you never knew you had or had long forgotten about. If singing is a superpower, Lara Fabian is the super-heroine to sweep us all off our feet. Whether we are ready for it or not.
Such a melancholic song but with so much vocal power. Her face at 14:14… you know it’s not acting indeed. That’s her true feelings showing through her facial expressions. If Lara wasn’t so vocally talented, I would still enjoy watching her just for her scenic performances. 🤷🏼♂️
Brandon, Thanks for another brilliant analysis of this beautiful but painfull song from Lara. This one (yet again), had me in tears. I lost a dear friend last year, who took her own life, following lifelong clinical depression and anxiety issues.
This is my favourite reaction you’ve ever done of one of Lara’s songs. I can’t wait till the next one! I highly recommend I Am A-WA... watch the studio recording. It’s AMAZING! And I love watching Lara’s “process” through the video. The song is beyond powerful!! I really hope you react to it soon!
Hello Brandon, I'm very happy to see you again and to hear your perfect analysis again. Lara conveys so much emotion in her voice and gestures. This song is very deep: she wrote it in a period of depression and suicidal thoughts. Fortunately, today, she seems perfectly happy and fulfilled. Can't wait to see her back on stage!!! I hope you and your family are well. See you soon for other reactions.🍀😍
She always do something that kind of surprise me. You feel that you follow the melody that can be predictable (not a bad thing) but then she take another tone or path with the melody and you are back on the floor again gasping for air. So she is unpredictable in the predictable where the harmonies can be sort of standard and well known. That's class and why I never get tired of her. Every tone has it's own zip code. And, you stop and analyse wherever you want, if people don't like that, well, find a clip without reaction then. Simple as that! Well done!
Brilliant, insightful review into what has always astounded me about Lara - her ability to strike into my soul each and everytime and leave me mesmerized! Technically I feel her breath control, her diaphragmatic support and her power enable her to alter her dynamics smoothly and at will so that she can express almost any emotion in any position.I am truly enamoured by her performances, even today.
Juste un mot pour souligner la qualité des musiciens qui accompagnent Lara. Ils sont vraiment à l'unisson de sa performance et méritent d'être aussi salués. Lara est toujours exceptionnelle et cette chanson est très forte.
Oh boy, Brandon, we really don't know what was happening in her own personal life during this tour, but it sure looks and hears that it was painfull and learning more and more that she is an artist deeply connected to her emotions and communication intent, I can only agree with everything you pointed out in this reaction. Same show as the song : Je T'Aime (where the crowd sing for her). What amaze me the most is that, not being a french speaking person, you are always spot on in your assumptions ( and even more than I, who is french mother tongue ). This is probably your clearest, articulated, kinesicially analysis of hers. She is something else from everything I've seen in all the artists and a hundred of shows I've attended in my life ! You should be an actor's director. ❤
I always felt that I belong to France even if I'm borned in Sweden. There is something with the harmonies, the tone level etc. And when that is performed by Lara fabian I want to BE French! To really understand the language and the soul that this music is borned from. She is just everything I love with music. Thanks for an excellent reaction!
Exactly, it's all the little tins that make the big difference for me, in terms of Lara and pretty much all the other artists / musicians / singers. She is humble and grateful when she finishes her song, she immediately gives her musicians a thank you, her pianist, the one she has sung duet with always gets a hug and she seems genuinely happy that the audience claps and acknowledges her preformance. And the way her concerts are produced, when we see them, she is very careful to show all the musicians who are on stage, including her backing singers. She's not afraid to look ugly if the song demands it. She is completely free and herself. I Love Lara. Love Lara ❤ Love from Denmark ❤
Original lyrics in french as written by Lara: Tout ne rime à rien Quand on n'a même plus peur Toutes les raisons de rester sont les leurs Rien ne te retient, surtout pas le bonheur Que tu ne cherches plus, c'est plus l'heure Je suis là pour ne pas regretter l'absence Des mots et des liens qui empêchent le silence Dis-moi s'il te plaît ce qu'on verra trop tard Le dernier aveu est-il ce regard ? Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On restera brisés devant l'irréparable Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On étreindra tout contre soi l'intolérable Parce que tu pars Jure le que cet échec N'est pas ton avenir Ce qui t'aura pris la tête Oublie-le pour te choisir Et si tu veux bien On cassera la gueule A ce coup du destin Qui rend seul Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On restera brisés devant l'irréparable Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On éteindra tout contre soi l'intolérance Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On questionnera chaque journée inévitable Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On éteindra tout contre soi l'intolérance Parce que tu pars Parce que tu...
Amazing commentary!!!👏👏👏 She did say in a clip of interview that she wrote this song for herself and for no one else. It is indeed about her suicidal thoughts. For those wondering, she says she’s in a very good space right now, feeling much better about herself. She’s currently coaching young singers in a televised signing academy. Prior to that, she was a coach for 2 years on La Voix (Quebec’s The Voice) and 1 year on The Voice France. She’s at that stage of her career where she fell in love with giving back and passing on her passion to other artists. Can’t to wait to see her again when she starts touring again✨
I'm so glad you are finally releasing this reaction on YT, it's incredible and truly does justice to this powerful performance of an intense and vulnerable moment of her life. If you look up the translation you could easily think it's a heartbroken love song, but in listening to and watching this performance it's impossible not to feel that it's so much deeper. And only in learning what really inspired it, the despair and suicidal thoughts, does that depth finally make sense. The power of her vulnerability is just extraordinary. Also, I have to mention again, her gift for writing not just incredible lyrics but also gorgeous, soaring melodies, is something I am truly grateful to have in my life. Honestly, having been through a pretty dark time of my own, discovering Lara 4 yrs ago made me feel glad I was still here. The irony of that hits me every time I see this video or hear this song.
Hello, I loved your reaction and share to this performance. I must correct you when you say that "we are all aware of Lara and her struggles with her self image". I had no idea about her having that issue. Sad to hear it. Personally I think she is naturally beautiful inside and outside too.
The song is more than melancholic, it is about someone who left - or is about to leave - all others by committing suicide. And she wrote this song when she felt bad and had such desperate ideas. Believe it or not she said once that she was about to do it one night when she was here in Paris. Fortunately she was in a famous restaurant (Hotel Costes) wheb she decided to do it and when leaving it, she met Françoise Hardy, a very famous french singer and songwriter, that she admired a lot. Françoise came to say hello and told her that she had the feeling that something was not ok on Lara’s side (how did she perceived it ?) and that she should find the force to go thru, Françoise also said that she was appreciating a lot Lara as an artist. It was apparently a 5mn talk but it changed Lara’s mind and her life.
@Fedor Ivanov yes, I understand. Apparently, the encounter with Françoise Hardy was in 1999, same year as the recording of From Lara with Love concert. So, I don’t lnow when Yeliel was created but this event maybe was the inspiration for it.
Yes, I had the same reading the interview. Later Lara dedicated her the album Toutes les femmes en moi. If you don’t know F. Hardy (but probably you do) please check her songs, they are great. she was THE french superstar in the 60s and 70s. And she was an absolute stunning beauty that did not know how attractive she was. they were all in love with her in the singing business ( mick jagger, bob dylan, … said so).
@Fedor Ivanov Hello Fedor, you are very present for Lara as well as other Fans. I'm very curious how you came to Lara. When and with what song or show did you discover it? Cordially.
Lara wrote and sang a lot of wonderful songs. I was 9/10 years old when I discovered her (25 years ago) with songs like Je t'aime, Tout, La Différence... If you have never listened to « L'oubli » (2015), you should look for it on TH-cam. It's a song she wrote about her mother's illness (she died 3 years ago). I am not sure that we can find a live version but there is the official video and it's powerful and very moving. Also, there is « Je ne t'aime plus », « I am a-wa », « La vie est là », « Pas sans toi »... Her version of « Le rêve de Stella Spotlight » (Starmania) is very beautiful too. She's my favourite singer. I was lucky enough to see her in concert (3 times), she's incredibly talented and generous.
Tout ne rime à rien quand on n'a même plus peur (Life means nothing when we don't feel fear anymore) Toutes les raisons de rester sont les leurs (All the reasons to live are theirs and theirs alone) Rien ne te retient (Nothing keeps you here) Surtout pas le bonheur (Especially not happiness) Que tu ne cherches plus (Which you are not looking for anymore) C'est plus l'heure (It's over) Je suis là pour ne pas regretter l'absence (I'm here not to regret the absence) Des mots et des liens qui empêchent le silence (Of words and bonds that prevent silence) Dis-moi s'il-te-plaît ce qu'on verra trop tard (Please tell me what we'll see too late) Le dernier aveu est-il ce regard (Is the last confession that glance) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) On restera brisé devant l'irréparable (We'll remain broken facing the the irreparable) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) On étreindra tout contre soi l'intolérable (We will embrace the intolrable) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Jure le que cet échec (Swear that this failure) N'est pas ton avenir (Is not your future) Ce qui t'aura pris la tête (Forget everything that bothered you) Oublie-le pour te choisir (And choose yourself) Et si tu veux bien (And if you agree) On cassera la gueule (We will smash) À ce coup du destin (That twist of fate) Qui rend seul ( that leaves you alone) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) On restera brisé devant l'irréparable (We'll remain broken facing the the irreparable) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) On étreindra tout contre soi l'intolérable (We will embrace the intolrable) Parce que tu pars (Because you leave) Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On questionnera chaque journée inévitable (we will question each inevitable day) Parce que tu pars Parce que tu pars On étreindra tout contre soi l'intolérable (We will embrace the intolrable) Parce que tu pars Parce que tu ► it's a song about suicide, written by Lara and Rick Allison at a time Lara was not ok at all. ♥
Salut Brandon , une performance très peu connu des gens "en général" , un extrait de l'opéra "La Traviata" une voix "pop" hors du commun sur un air d'opéra qui pour ma part est encore plus envoutante que le "chant d'opéra standart" ,une autre approche musicale de la plus complète des grandes voix de ce monde , notre LARA planétaire, à écouter sans modération,un salut cordial du sud de la France,André
You mentioned that concert must have been phenomenal and it was. I've been fortunate to have seen Lara 10-11 times in concert over the years going back to the late 90's in different venues (large & small) over the world. I was at one of these performances at the Zenith in Paris and it was crazy. Huge venue and epic performance even thought I enjoy Lara in more intimate settings (ie Olympia in Paris, Warner in DC ). Now that things have opened up for live performances again, I have tickets to see her in June in Montreal. So looking forward to it !
What you say about her performance, her quality of performer, it’s characteristic of French Canadian singer, and it’s a lot cause of Ginette Reno, Reno was a monument here, she was the inspiration of a lot of artist down here, she put her soul in the song like Ginette does, it’s amazing how we can feel everything this way 🫶
I would not call it Melancholic but Notalgia at its best with the deepest of cogitation (meditative presence of the moment) natural and real no pretending LAURA oh lala toujours, meirveilleuse, chaleurse, genereuse de son ame reconessante. That is what I value Laura as a sublime and generous artist that give all of her being!
This song brings me to tears every time, my brother being ''gone''...unable to listen to it without crying. Too bad we didn't put the translation of the words in English for those who don't speak French.
Her "curling up" was not bad technique. She has such freedom & stability in her support structure, "curling up" has zero adverse effect on her voice. It would be bad technique for those less skilled (because it would affect almost anyone else's vocal production.)
Bad technique is not always wrong. Bad technique does not always have an adverse effect on a performance. Bad technique is not always a mistake or an accident. A singer can be talented or skilled enough to overcome bad technique. But bad technique is bad technique…and singing with your body contorted like that is bad technique.
@@tnae lol. No. You are over-reaching your knowledge base. Which you do occasionally on vocal matters, but that's okay. I like your reactions anyway. 😘
Ta passion et tes commentaires sont d'une sensibilité troublante, cher coach. Il faut connaître la passion pour pouvoir la rendre comme elle le fait. Tu as une belle sensibilité.
Heeey. What a great reaction. I love how you just FEEL the way she performs, you seem to be so sweet from inside, and I really like the way you catch Lara's way to touch us. 😉 I have a gift to you. This the link for this same performance, but at the begin she explains what is this song about, she wrote it to talk about suicide, even it may looks like she is talking about someone who is leaving her, she is talking about herself not living anymore. Plus, she wrote it, and the video has English Subtitles. You dont neet react to it again, of course, I just wanted you to watch again, but seeing her explanation and the powerful lyrics. Thank you. Fabian - Because you leave. th-cam.com/video/gEM4VYYqZvo/w-d-xo.html
I know I'm a bit late with my reaction on your video, but I must say - apart from that Lara is amazing - that for some reason I don't even mind you stopping so much. Your reaction is also worth watching. I watch a lot of reaction videos nowadays and some I skip real soon. The fact that you also know what you're talking about may also be said. "Chapeau", as the french say, because without speaking the language - just a few words - you felt what the song is about.
I love both in fact. From lara with love is the most impressive in terms of singing, En toute intimité version is more theatrical, more on the pure acting side. Both version let us feel rhe pain but in a very different way. Amazing.
IMO Je Suis Malade in En Toute Intiimite is not better, but different. It's a toss up as to whether From Lara with Love or En Toute Intimite is her best concert. And all her concerts - Un Regard 9, TLFM, contain masterpieces of singing.
@@frankbirch3877 yes and orchestration is very different ( Full orchestra in FLWL and only piano * 4 chords in ETI) which has an influence on the way she sings
Lara Fabian is the best female vocalist on planet earth. But now I would like to turn you on to a singer who has the most unique memorable mesmerizing voice. Her name is Diana Ankudinova and She’s from Russia nd who many coaches, professional vocalists, and Reactors around the globe consider in possession of the most unique mesmerizing memorable amazing atavistic tribunal primordial shaman goddess voice in the world -any age. Her EPIC performance of “ Rechenka”( River in English) at age 14 ( a MUST reaction) catapulted her to worldwide prominence. An incredible and legendary performance of an old ritual wedding folk that to this day is considered by many professional vocalists and coaches around the world as the most unique and electrifying vocalist -any age , in the HISTORY of talent contests. And along with “ Human” ( lowest possible female range she’s a rare dramatic contralto ) and “ Wicked Game” contributed to her winning not only the kids “ you are super” contest for orphans and adopted children 2 consecutive years but catapulted her to international fame with millions of avid followers worldwide. And Famous composer Igor Kurtoy has accompanied her on the piano on “ Tomorrow Is A Lie” ( 4:26 .. posted by HTB amazing performance) And you might want to read a little about her tragic younger years abused and beaten by her birth mother and put up for adoption at age 3. So traumatized she was unable to speak for a year. But the director of the orphanage one day heard Diana sing along with a musical on a Russian TV show and immediately contacted a professional voice teacher who she knew and began at age 5 giving her lessons. After only a couple days her voice instructor told her mom that in 40 years of working with talented young singers, Diana was far and away the most talented. You may want to continue your Ankudinova journey by reacting the year prior to “ rechenka” when she was 13! She entered her first kids contest in Russia where she sang a song that required masterful yodeling. It was a masterpiece, a tour de force, some say one of the best yodeling performances on any talent show but in this performance it was the controversial aftermath that prompted the audience to give her a 5 minute Standing Ovation and caused a scandal and shouts of Diana being “ robbed”. The following day when it appeared on you tube 50 million people spit on the judges and it was revealed that the contest was fixed and the winner already predetermined and caused a major scandal. And at 13 her rendition of “ Me Voy” in Spanish was emotionally impactful and when I suggested that my Spanish language friends watch they were shocked and couldn’t believe the perfect pronunciation and emotional feelings she conveyed. And the following year and year thereafter she won the 2 “ you are super” Russian contests. After reacting to Rechenka and Wicked Game and Human Please react to “ yodel time” And you’ll witness a yodeling masterpiece. And wait to you watch and hear her at age 13 or maybe 14 on a riverboat cruise ship giving an hour long performance highlighted with her amazing performance mostly in English of a 1920s cabaret song by the famous composer Irving Berlin called “ Puttin On The Ritz” . Not only does she kill it with her vocal electrifying expressions and dance moves but I will not spoil the SURPRISE that will knock you off your chair ( a 12 second teaser she gives the audience that the late great Fred Astaire would be smiling down on her from heaven. ). If Diana wanted to she could easily become a world class.... ( I won’t spoil the 12 seconds) Also when she won her “you are super” contest she performed a song written by Lara Fabian titled “ Tomorrow Is A Lie” accompanied on the piano by the famous composer Igor. She sings it in English and the meaning of this song is so spiritual “ only here and now... Tomorrow is a Lie ( all that exists is the next moment). If you continue to react to Diana, your subscriber base will quadrupl

That's version 2, which is kinda funky compared to version 1 which is more in keeping with her style of music th-cam.com/video/j1QrGjbYIo0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nKWYgEV6_KjwkiMB

All This concert its Amazing!! I recomend you from this concert PAS SANS TOI AND SI TU ME ‘AIME GREAT SONGS AND PERFORMANCES OF LARA👏👏👏👏 please react to the se songs🙏🏻🙏🏻😘
Amasing song singing and performsnce. In the 11th min i fslt it was getting a bit like " yes i dont need that anymore" and than sarkasm - and she is saying with half smille if you want lets break uor gouls.
Boy, when I saw it for the first time, I think in 2005 or 2006, I said to myself, where was I when this was happening? Being a professional musician, had I had the luxury of not hearing this angel in the body of this beautiful woman? I immediately cried when I heard her sing. Today I was just playing this on the piano and I saw her in my mind, whispering, feeling, crying, screaming. You can't sing better. I really think there is no way
Je l'ai vu en concert juste quelque semaines avant la pandémie de 2020. Je peux vous dire que la vidéo n'est rien à côté de ce qu'elle dégage vraiment en concert... elle fait chanter le public également.... A la fin du concert... j'avais l'impression d'être sur une autre planète... Sa voix est un diamant brut. En plus, elle fait des master class pour de jeunes chanteurs et dévoile toute sa technique de chant pour faire passer les notes les plus dures comme quelques choses de naturelles. Pour cette chanson, il est difficile de résister aux larmes, à l'émotion qu'elle y met en la chantant... même elle verse sa larme en la chantant. Merci pour elle de votre analyse si bienveillante à son encontre.
i see all from she ......she the best artist i see iin my life!!!!!!! i love her !!!!!!!
agree with every word written by peter pelletier (below) and I am 80. Gorgeous human being who has battled Cancer, I think twice and other major health issues in addition to having more angst than one person should have for other reasons than medical. Finished 4th in contest at age 19 won by Celine Dion but does not explain being unknown in USA. Plus, I have never ever seen or heard a singer with the ability to convey such a gorgeous sound mixed with emotion that drowns you in oceans of tears.
I'm 72, a former musician and hard core heavy metal and hard rock fan my whole life. Discovered Lara watching reaction videos. A reaction to Je Suis Malade popped up and completely changed what I listen to. Never has anyone in the music industry affected me like this woman. It's a damn shame what the recording industry here in the states did to her, basically depriving us of one of the best voices EVER. I like your basic superstars that need no mention here from reputation alone, but I'm not at all embarrassed to say that none of them chokes me up like this woman. I feel every note this woman sings. She makes me want to cry when I hear her sing. Not to mention she is one of the most beautiful women on the planet, inside and out.
Very true words👍
Peter, I saw many comment from other heavy or hard rock metal fans that fall under Lara’s spell in the same way you did.
And thinking about it, I’m not surprised, it is more consistent than how it looks first.
I believe you are attracted to raw and sincere stories and emotions. That’s what attracted you to metal, heavy or hard rock 🤘. Now the same happens with Lara as she is the ultimate raw and sincere performer and emotional powerhouse on stage.
I think I have written the same words. As a professional musician most of my life I found Lara while watching reaction videos two years ago. Since then I just can't get enough. I have performed with some very famous singers over the years, including recordings, movies, television, operas and musicals, but Lara is the only one who makes me tear up on a regular basis.
Also, let's give gigantic props to all the musicians that play with her. Every configuration of groups behind her whether or not a full orchestra or just a basic band are all excellent. Pierre on piano with her in the concert with just him, the 3 violinists and the cello has to be some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Never have I heard a piano and a singer so in synch as they were.
@@peterpelletier176 Great point. Pierre Grimard was particularly good with Lara. Her En Toute Intimite concert represented, in my opinion, the pinnacle of her expressive power. Partly because it was "naked".... no big bands, or props, just Lara with Pierre and the string quartet. Cheers!
I'm listening to this again one year later. I think I finally understand why Lara is my favorite performer of all time. She has had an emotionally difficult life and as a human being she has flaws like everyone...but, in all of her insecurities and questioning herself, she has turned everything she is into perfection. I do not believe there is a more complete performer on the planet. There is just no one else in her league. Her artistry is one of a kind. When she is performing she is the most beautiful woman, the greatest singer, and her wisdom and feelings are synthesized into timeless art. And now, in her fifties, she still has a magical glow that identifies her undeniable mastery of the art of performing. Since first hearing her almost three years ago, I still listen to her every day...because I have to.
most singers perform .................. Lara LIVRS each song ! She is the Ultimate Artist
The greatest female singer the World has ever heard !
This song hits me so hard every time I watch it. It fills me we utter terror, to think how close she got to leave this world behind. To think, that her magical ray of light in this world was almost extinguished. To know how deep her desperation, her anguish, her hopelessness was. To know that there are people out there who were capable to hurt her so much, that she lost her will to live. I'm a few months older than Lara, I've been her devoted fan since '94, I was a singer until my mid-forties, and I've never seen anyone singing like Lara does. Not even close. Not even in the same galaxy. There were/are great singers with incredible vocals, from Piaf to Callas, to Streisand to Aretha to the trio of Whitney, Mariah and Celine. Still, none of them were able to bare their souls with every single song like Lara does every single time. She doesn't sing to be admired or to be worshipped like most the so-called divas out there. Lara tells us a story, she reaches out to her audience to take the journey with her. Every note, every breath, every glance, every gesture comes from deep within. Her magic is her incredible gift to touch our heart and soul by her honesty, her warmth, her empathy and love that just radiates from her like a beacon of light in complete darkness.
What a powerful comment. Beautifully said.
So well said...she is the best there is...
That is so beautiful. You might have a very sensitive self in order to translate Lara's soul❤
There is an old saying..."beauty is only skin deep". Meaning outside appearance can be deceptive. But when your beautiful on the inside your beautiful on the outside. Of course Lara has it all. I learned about her from her singing with Dimash. I love her voice!! She draws you in with her story telling and holds you with her outstanding voice.
So powerful Andrea… so well said… Lara touches the depth of my being… And so did your comment… Thank you 11 months later.❤
I lived in Quebec, Canada for 16 years and heard Lara's name and probably heard her songs but I didn't realize she was this amazing. Saw a reaction video 3 weeks ago and now I am a big Lara fan. ❤ My playlist on Spotify is all Lara these days. 😍 This song actually made me cry tonight. Thank you Lara. Much love from Sweden. ❤
Very beautiful song ❤Lara ❤
She wrote it. I think this is her most personal song. I can't imagine the pain and the road she could've taken 💔 lucky for us she didn't
she is unique, sometimes if you privilege the technique, lose the interpretation or if you privilege interpretation, the technique is not perfect. She is the only one in the world who is perfect in technique and interpretation and then she is a wonderful person who has also suffered you can only love her. congratulations on your reactions
One of the greatest French-speaking singers of all time!
I never saw her so deeply desparate and so extremely happy, so expressive and free and passionate than she was in Paris concert 2001. That's why I consider it by far the concert of her life. Because she lived a whole life that night on the scene. I also never saw so deep love from an audience to an artist. And it was not only the "Je t'aime" song, the audience was incredible throughout the whole concert. A concert you haven't presented yet to us as a whole like others have done. And I also never saw an artist being so much affected by an audience. That night was almost a psychotherapy for her and her struggling with suicidal thoughts. She changed her mind and decided that maybe this life worths living. I don't understand what the hell she is doing so many years in Canada, a country so close to her SONY tragedy in USA and so far away from her parents, her birthplace and birthplace of her husband. Of course some French journalists etc mistreated her in her beginning as an artist but if I was Lara I suppose I would live in Paris to express my gratitude to the unbelievable love I experienced in the 2001 concert. Congratulations for your increasing subscribers, from 8 thousands they became 24 thousands within a year. Hugs Greece
Final words: you are absolutely spot on on your comments on Lara ability to forget about herself or her appearance to become the character. Telling the story is her absolute mission and she is 1000% committed to it.
One could be so fortunate to have someone feel that way about you in their lifetime ....it's all i've ever wanted and far from reach...in this lifetime.
You and I both.
Parceque tu pars is "because you're leaving", it's about suicide and its consequences. She wrote it about herself. She used "you" instead of "i", she was talking to herself. I love this song and this performance, so powerful.
This song was written by Jean Jacques Goldman. A genius who wrote a lot of meaningfull song.

Awesomeness!!
Look at Lara's face at 8.47mn, she depicts suffering. She is beautiful, a goddess!!
You're spot on! when she says "on cassera la gueule à ce coup du destin qui rend seul" she's basically saying that she'll get through this hardship that left her alone in total pain.
I was in the audience all 3 nights during the filming of this concert, and each night left me exhausted, but in the best way possible. This concert cemented me as a Lara fan for life. She's just incredible.
For another amazing interpretation of this song, check out the fancam footage of the "Parcque Tu Pars" duet with Harel Skaat. It's fantastic!

You are able to detect the slightest little detail, the one that no one sees, bravo 👏
Her long, consistent, phrases in this song are exceptionally well done - breath control.
100%. She’s amazing!
Because you're leaving. Another masterpiece by Lara Fabian and team! There is no one like her!
fantastic ! one of the best IN THE WORLD .
Salut Dave , no one of the best THE BEST of the world
Lyrics translated in english:
Everything seems pointless
When we don't even fear anymore
All the reasons3
To stay are theirs
Nothing is holding you back
Specially not happiness
When you don't search anymore
Time is out
I am here to not
regret the absence
of the words and the links
that hinder the silent
tell me please
what we'll too late see
Is the last confession
This gaze?
Cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll remain broken before the irreparable
cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll hold close the unbearable
cause you are leaving
Swear that this failure
Is not your future
What had bug you
Forget it to choose yourself
And if you want
we'll break the face
of this destiny
that leads to be lonely
Cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll remain broken before the irreparable
cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll hold close the unbearable
cause you are leaving
Cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll questionne every inavoidable day
cause you are leaving
cause you are leaving
we'll hold close the unbearable
cause you are leaving
thank you for the translation
What is there moore to say? I can only listen to this amazing performer and love her! Thanks for sharing.
First of all, I'm french.I'm in my sixties. And, I'm ashamed, I discovered Lara Fabian recently by accident. I was looking for Maria Callas singing "casta diva". A song that gives me chills. And, in the maze of youtube emerges a voice, sincere emotions and incandescent beauty, Lara. Since then, I'm addicted. I'm waiting for all reactions. Especially from Brandon. The most moving ones. Thank you. What more can I say. Just look at her and listen to her.
Je suis dans le cas que toi, 60 ans ans également. J'ai redécouvert Lara et suis devenu accro également. Cdlt
@@ildefonsobenitez6624. Une question. Pourquoi suis je passé à côté de cette incroyable chanteuse? ma réponse, le microcosme parisien qui décide de ce qu'il faut écouter, lire, voir a participé à nuire à son image. heureusement, les enregistrements de ses magnifiques concerts actuellement accessibles en ligne rétablissent une forme de justice au moins artistique. bon voyage dans son œuvre.
@@dume2b461 En ce qui me concerne, l'influence des médias et critiques musicaux parisiens n'ont pas eut d'emprise sur mes goûts. J'ai toujours sut que Lara était une grande chanteuse mais durant toutes ces années j'ai préféré écouter Aznavour, Julien Clerc, souchon....Mais aujourd'hui Lara Fabian s'est révélé à moi à cause des confinements et grâce à TH-cam. Musicalement, je rattrape le temps perdu. Je n'écoute qu'elle. Jai acheté tous ses albums et j'irai la voir en concert en septembre. Je me suis replongé assidument dans sa discographie qui est magnifique et j'ai découvert des chansons sublimes qui m'étaient inconnues. Maintenant je suis fan pour toujours !
@@ildefonsobenitez6624 . Ce que je voulais dire , c'est qu'ils l'ont rendue invisible. moi aussi, j'écoutais du plus "classique". et de plus, je vis dans une région qui a une vieille tradition de chants à "voix".
@@dume2b461 Je valide ! Bien à vous.
The composition is hers, thank you for this beautiful reaction! It's wonderful
True acting, ... perfectly imperfect, reflecting what she feels.

Bella reacción! Hermosa canción de la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo entero,Lara Fabián!Única y fuera de este mundo!Gracias!
Love how you react to this, from your heart, and how you describe it.
Not making Lara any less than a miracle, an angel❤
This is certainly an out-of-world experience, being in the presence of this human being's delicate and sensitive, yet powerful projection of raw emotion. It must have been such a privilege seeing this live. Even through the screen, it just makes you gasp because she becomes the conduit that connects you with places and energies inside you that you never knew you had or had long forgotten about.
If singing is a superpower, Lara Fabian is the super-heroine to sweep us all off our feet. Whether we are ready for it or not.
I loved your sincere enthusiasm in your reaction. She is incredible, no wonder she influenced younger artists like Dimash. Thank you.
You are very welcome. Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment 😊.
Such a melancholic song but with so much vocal power.
Her face at 14:14… you know it’s not acting indeed. That’s her true feelings showing through her facial expressions.
If Lara wasn’t so vocally talented, I would still enjoy watching her just for her scenic performances. 🤷🏼♂️
Brandon, Thanks for another brilliant analysis of this beautiful but painfull song from Lara. This one (yet again), had me in tears. I lost a dear friend last year, who took her own life, following lifelong clinical depression and anxiety issues.
This is my favourite reaction you’ve ever done of one of Lara’s songs. I can’t wait till the next one!
I highly recommend I Am A-WA... watch the studio recording. It’s AMAZING! And I love watching Lara’s “process” through the video. The song is beyond powerful!! I really hope you react to it soon!
Hello Brandon, I'm very happy to see you again and to hear your perfect analysis again. Lara conveys so much emotion in her voice and gestures. This song is very deep: she wrote it in a period of depression and suicidal thoughts. Fortunately, today, she seems perfectly happy and fulfilled. Can't wait to see her back on stage!!!
I hope you and your family are well. See you soon for other reactions.🍀😍
She always do something that kind of surprise me. You feel that you follow the melody that can be predictable (not a bad thing) but then she take another tone or path with the melody and you are back on the floor again gasping for air. So she is unpredictable in the predictable where the harmonies can be sort of standard and well known. That's class and why I never get tired of her. Every tone has it's own zip code. And, you stop and analyse wherever you want, if people don't like that, well, find a clip without reaction then. Simple as that! Well done!
You are really doing fantastic reactions, it's one of my favourite songs, so great
I agree. There’s nothing like this song
Brilliant, insightful review into what has always astounded me about Lara - her ability to strike into my soul each and everytime and leave me mesmerized! Technically I feel her breath control, her diaphragmatic support and her power enable her to alter her dynamics smoothly and at will so that she can express almost any emotion in any position.I am truly enamoured by her performances, even today.
Los matices en su voz son unicos....es increible
this song is a real masterpiece !!! you are right it was not a concert it was a spiritual experience !
Juste un mot pour souligner la qualité des musiciens qui accompagnent Lara. Ils sont vraiment à l'unisson de sa performance et méritent d'être aussi salués. Lara est toujours exceptionnelle et cette chanson est très forte.
"It would be a dream to see her in concert" and now you will :D
Oh boy, Brandon, we really don't know what was happening in her own personal life during this tour, but it sure looks and hears that it was painfull and learning more and more that she is an artist deeply connected to her emotions and communication intent, I can only agree with everything you pointed out in this reaction. Same show as the song : Je T'Aime (where the crowd sing for her). What amaze me the most is that, not being a french speaking person, you are always spot on in your assumptions ( and even more than I, who is french mother tongue ). This is probably your clearest, articulated, kinesicially analysis of hers. She is something else from everything I've seen in all the artists and a hundred of shows I've attended in my life ! You should be an actor's director. ❤
I always felt that I belong to France even if I'm borned in Sweden. There is something with the harmonies, the tone level etc. And when that is performed by Lara fabian I want to BE French! To really understand the language and the soul that this music is borned from.
She is just everything I love with music. Thanks for an excellent reaction!
Exactly, it's all the little tins that make the big difference for me, in terms of Lara and pretty much all the other artists / musicians / singers.
She is humble and grateful when she finishes her song, she immediately gives her musicians a thank you, her pianist, the one she has sung duet with always gets a hug and she seems genuinely happy that the audience claps and acknowledges her preformance. And the way her concerts are produced, when we see them, she is very careful to show all the musicians who are on stage, including her backing singers. She's not afraid to look ugly if the song demands it. She is completely free and herself.
I Love Lara.
Love Lara ❤
Love from Denmark ❤
Original lyrics in french as written by Lara:
Tout ne rime à rien
Quand on n'a même plus peur
Toutes les raisons de rester sont les leurs
Rien ne te retient, surtout pas le bonheur
Que tu ne cherches plus, c'est plus l'heure
Je suis là pour ne pas regretter l'absence
Des mots et des liens qui empêchent le silence
Dis-moi s'il te plaît ce qu'on verra trop tard
Le dernier aveu est-il ce regard ?
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On restera brisés devant l'irréparable
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On étreindra tout contre soi l'intolérable
Parce que tu pars
Jure le que cet échec
N'est pas ton avenir
Ce qui t'aura pris la tête
Oublie-le pour te choisir
Et si tu veux bien
On cassera la gueule
A ce coup du destin
Qui rend seul
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On restera brisés devant l'irréparable
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On éteindra tout contre soi l'intolérance
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On questionnera chaque journée inévitable
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu pars
On éteindra tout contre soi l'intolérance
Parce que tu pars
Parce que tu...
Merci 🥰
Amazing commentary!!!👏👏👏
She did say in a clip of interview that she wrote this song for herself and for no one else. It is indeed about her suicidal thoughts. For those wondering, she says she’s in a very good space right now, feeling much better about herself. She’s currently coaching young singers in a televised signing academy. Prior to that, she was a coach for 2 years on La Voix (Quebec’s The Voice) and 1 year on The Voice France. She’s at that stage of her career where she fell in love with giving back and passing on her passion to other artists. Can’t to wait to see her again when she starts touring again✨
I'm so glad you are finally releasing this reaction on YT, it's incredible and truly does justice to this powerful performance of an intense and vulnerable moment of her life. If you look up the translation you could easily think it's a heartbroken love song, but in listening to and watching this performance it's impossible not to feel that it's so much deeper. And only in learning what really inspired it, the despair and suicidal thoughts, does that depth finally make sense. The power of her vulnerability is just extraordinary. Also, I have to mention again, her gift for writing not just incredible lyrics but also gorgeous, soaring melodies, is something I am truly grateful to have in my life. Honestly, having been through a pretty dark time of my own, discovering Lara 4 yrs ago made me feel glad I was still here. The irony of that hits me every time I see this video or hear this song.
Yeah, maybe her best performance.
Hello, I loved your reaction and share to this performance. I must correct you when you say that "we are all aware of Lara and her struggles with her self image". I had no idea about her having that issue. Sad to hear it. Personally I think she is naturally beautiful inside and outside too.
The song is more than melancholic, it is about someone who left - or is about to leave - all others by committing suicide.
And she wrote this song when she felt bad and had such desperate ideas.
Believe it or not she said once that she was about to do it one night when she was here in Paris.
Fortunately she was in a famous restaurant (Hotel Costes) wheb she decided to do it and when leaving it, she met Françoise Hardy, a very famous french singer and songwriter, that she admired a lot.
Françoise came to say hello and told her that she had the feeling that something was not ok on Lara’s side (how did she perceived it ?) and that she should find the force to go thru, Françoise also said that she was appreciating a lot Lara as an artist. It was apparently a 5mn talk but it changed Lara’s mind and her life.
@Fedor Ivanov my pleasure. I posted the link to this interview but it disappeared for some reason.
@Fedor Ivanov yes, I understand. Apparently, the encounter with Françoise Hardy was in 1999, same year as the recording of From Lara with Love concert. So, I don’t lnow when Yeliel was created but this event maybe was the inspiration for it.
@@ericsicard910 I got chills reading this. She was put on Laras path
Yes, I had the same reading the interview. Later Lara dedicated her the album Toutes les femmes en moi.
If you don’t know F. Hardy (but probably you do) please check her songs, they are great. she was THE french superstar in the 60s and 70s. And she was an absolute stunning beauty that did not know how attractive she was. they were all in love with her in the singing business ( mick jagger, bob dylan, … said so).
@Fedor Ivanov Hello Fedor, you are very present for Lara as well as other Fans. I'm very curious how you came to Lara. When and with what song or show did you discover it? Cordially.
Oh Laura, Lara... always so emotional😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
the best singer in this planet
French fans thank you so much for any analisys of Lara. As Barbra told Lara you’re good and very good and I don’t often say that…,,,,,,,,,,
Lara wrote and sang a lot of wonderful songs. I was 9/10 years old when I discovered her (25 years ago) with songs like Je t'aime, Tout, La Différence... If you have never listened to « L'oubli » (2015), you should look for it on TH-cam. It's a song she wrote about her mother's illness (she died 3 years ago). I am not sure that we can find a live version but there is the official video and it's powerful and very moving. Also, there is « Je ne t'aime plus », « I am a-wa », « La vie est là », « Pas sans toi »... Her version of « Le rêve de Stella Spotlight » (Starmania) is very beautiful too. She's my favourite singer. I was lucky enough to see her in concert (3 times), she's incredibly talented and generous.
Tout ne rime à rien quand on n'a même plus peur (Life means nothing when we don't feel fear anymore)

► it's a song about suicide, written by Lara and Rick Allison at a time Lara was not ok at all. ♥
Salut Brandon , une performance très peu connu des gens "en général" , un extrait de l'opéra "La Traviata" une voix "pop" hors du commun sur un air d'opéra qui pour ma part est encore plus envoutante que le "chant d'opéra standart" ,une autre approche musicale de la plus complète des grandes voix de ce monde , notre LARA planétaire, à écouter sans modération,un salut cordial du sud de la France,André
You mentioned that concert must have been phenomenal and it was. I've been fortunate to have seen Lara 10-11 times in concert over the years going back to the late 90's in different venues (large & small) over the world. I was at one of these performances at the Zenith in Paris and it was crazy. Huge venue and epic performance even thought I enjoy Lara in more intimate settings (ie Olympia in Paris, Warner in DC ). Now that things have opened up for live performances again, I have tickets to see her in June in Montreal. So looking forward to it !
That‘s great, have fun👍
Why am I crying?!?!?
Me too😭
The lyric so strong
Isn't she unique? Perfect tecnique mixed with so much emotion.
Great reaction...,She is the best.....
What you say about her performance, her quality of performer, it’s characteristic of French Canadian singer, and it’s a lot cause of Ginette Reno, Reno was a monument here, she was the inspiration of a lot of artist down here, she put her soul in the song like Ginette does, it’s amazing how we can feel everything this way 🫶
Nailed it! Thanks
J'adore cette chanson merci pour moi une des plus belle voix du monde
I would not call it Melancholic but Notalgia at its best with the deepest of cogitation (meditative presence of the moment) natural and real no pretending LAURA oh lala toujours, meirveilleuse, chaleurse, genereuse de son ame reconessante. That is what I value Laura as a sublime and generous artist that give all of her being!
This song brings me to tears every time, my brother being ''gone''...unable to listen to it without crying. Too bad we didn't put the translation of the words in English for those who don't speak French.
Her "curling up" was not bad technique. She has such freedom & stability in her support structure, "curling up" has zero adverse effect on her voice. It would be bad technique for those less skilled (because it would affect almost anyone else's vocal production.)
Bad technique is not always wrong. Bad technique does not always have an adverse effect on a performance. Bad technique is not always a mistake or an accident. A singer can be talented or skilled enough to overcome bad technique. But bad technique is bad technique…and singing with your body contorted like that is bad technique.
@@tnae lol. No. You are over-reaching your knowledge base. Which you do occasionally on vocal matters, but that's okay. I like your reactions anyway. 😘
Ta passion et tes commentaires sont d'une sensibilité troublante, cher coach. Il faut connaître la passion pour pouvoir la rendre comme elle le fait. Tu as une belle sensibilité.
I always enjoy your réactions
Heeey. What a great reaction. I love how you just FEEL the way she performs, you seem to be so sweet from inside, and I really like the way you catch Lara's way to touch us. 😉
I have a gift to you.
This the link for this same performance, but at the begin she explains what is this song about, she wrote it to talk about suicide, even it may looks like she is talking about someone who is leaving her, she is talking about herself not living anymore. Plus, she wrote it, and the video has English Subtitles. You dont neet react to it again, of course, I just wanted you to watch again, but seeing her explanation and the powerful lyrics. Thank you.
Fabian - Because you leave.

I know I'm a bit late with my reaction on your video, but I must say - apart from that Lara is amazing - that for some reason I don't even mind you stopping so much. Your reaction is also worth watching. I watch a lot of reaction videos nowadays and some I skip real soon. The fact that you also know what you're talking about may also be said. "Chapeau", as the french say, because without speaking the language - just a few words - you felt what the song is about.
The song so sad "because You leave" Parce que tu pars. Thank U Lara 😣😣😣😢😢😢😢😢😢
Please react to « the prayer » by lara and Michael bolton you’ll love it 😉
Everyone reacts on "je suis malade; Lara With Love" but the most beautiful concert with this song is "Je suis malade; En toute intimité" .
I love both in fact. From lara with love is the most impressive in terms of singing, En toute intimité version is more theatrical, more on the pure acting side. Both version let us feel rhe pain but in a very different way. Amazing.
IMO Je Suis Malade in En Toute Intiimite is not better, but different. It's a toss up as to whether From Lara with Love or En Toute Intimite is her best concert. And all her concerts - Un Regard 9, TLFM, contain masterpieces of singing.
@@frankbirch3877 yes and orchestration is very different ( Full orchestra in FLWL and only piano * 4 chords in ETI) which has an influence on the way she sings
I love your attitude and réactions !
Thank YOU !
Thank you so much!! That means a lot to me.
The best singer ever!!
Eargasm and eyegasm ❤️❤️
How beautiful analysis you made bro congrats!!
Oh Lara... Lara.. she soooo..... make me crazyyyyy.....
Lara Fabian is the best female vocalist on planet earth.
But now I would like to turn you on to a singer who has the most unique memorable mesmerizing voice. Her name is Diana Ankudinova and
She’s from Russia nd
who many coaches, professional vocalists, and Reactors around the globe consider in possession of the most unique mesmerizing memorable amazing atavistic tribunal primordial shaman goddess voice in the world -any age. Her EPIC performance of “ Rechenka”( River in English) at age 14 ( a MUST reaction) catapulted her to worldwide prominence. An incredible and legendary performance of an old ritual wedding folk that to this day is considered by many professional vocalists and coaches around the world as the most unique and electrifying vocalist -any age , in the HISTORY of talent contests. And along with “ Human” ( lowest possible female range she’s a rare dramatic contralto ) and “ Wicked Game” contributed to her winning not only the kids “ you are super” contest for orphans and adopted children 2 consecutive years but catapulted her to international fame
with millions of avid followers worldwide. And Famous composer Igor Kurtoy has accompanied her on the piano on “ Tomorrow Is A Lie” ( 4:26 .. posted by HTB amazing performance) And you might want to read a little about her tragic younger years abused and beaten by her birth mother and put up for adoption at age 3.
So traumatized she was unable to speak for a year. But the director of the orphanage one day heard Diana sing along with a musical on a Russian TV show and immediately contacted a professional voice teacher who she knew and began at age 5 giving her lessons. After only a couple days her voice instructor told her mom that in 40 years of working with talented young singers, Diana was far and away the most talented.
You may want to continue your Ankudinova journey by reacting the year prior to “ rechenka” when she was 13!
She entered her first kids contest in Russia where she sang a song that required masterful yodeling.
It was a masterpiece, a tour de force, some say one of the best yodeling performances on any talent show but in this performance it was the controversial aftermath that prompted the audience to give her a 5 minute Standing Ovation and caused a scandal and shouts of Diana being “ robbed”.
The following day when it appeared on you tube 50 million people spit on the judges and it was revealed that the contest was fixed and the winner already predetermined and caused a major scandal.
And at 13 her rendition of “ Me Voy” in Spanish was emotionally impactful and when I suggested that my Spanish language friends watch they were shocked and couldn’t believe the perfect pronunciation and emotional feelings she conveyed.
And the following year and year thereafter she won the 2 “ you are super” Russian contests.
After reacting to Rechenka and Wicked Game and Human Please react to “ yodel time” And you’ll witness a yodeling masterpiece.
And wait to you watch and hear her at age 13 or maybe 14 on a riverboat cruise ship giving an hour long performance highlighted with her amazing performance mostly in English of a 1920s cabaret song by the famous composer Irving Berlin called “ Puttin On The Ritz” . Not only does she kill it with her vocal electrifying expressions and dance moves but I will not spoil the SURPRISE
that will knock you off your chair ( a 12 second teaser she gives the audience that the late great Fred Astaire would be smiling down on her from heaven. ). If Diana wanted to she could easily become a world class.... ( I won’t spoil the 12 seconds)
Also when she won her “you are super” contest she performed a song written by Lara Fabian titled “ Tomorrow Is A Lie” accompanied on the piano by the famous composer Igor.
She sings it in English and the meaning of this song is so spiritual “ only here and now... Tomorrow is a Lie ( all that exists is the next moment).
If you continue to react to Diana, your subscriber base will quadrupl
miss FABIAN vit ses chansons parce que souvent vécues et particulièrement celle -là et les plus belles chansons sont souvent des chansons tristes ....incomparable et obsessionnelle ...le genre de chanson qui vous reste dans la tête pendant des jours ...
Beautiful Song thank you💕
Great reaction. Much love from Romania!
BECAUSE : PARCE QUE YOU : TU LEAVE : PAR(S) thanks 4 sharing : )
So important to understand the lyrics, here is the translation :
Everything makes no sense when you're not even afraid anymore
All the reasons to stay are theirs
Nothing holds you back, especially not happiness
That you no longer seek
It's not time anymore
I am here not to regret the absence
Words and links that prevent silence
Please tell me what we'll see too late
Is the last confession this look?
Because you leave
Because you leave
We remain broken in front of the irreparable
Because you leave
Because you leave
We will embrace everything against us the intolerable
Because you leave
Swear that this failure
is not your future
What took your mind
Forget it to choose you
And if you want
On will break the mouth
At this twist of fate
who makes alone
Because you leave
Because you leave
We remain broken in front of the irreparable
Because you leave
Because you leave
We will extinguish intolerance all against ourselves
Because you're leaving, because you're leaving
Because you're leaving, because you're leaving
We will question each inevitable day
Because you're leaving, because you're leaving
We will extinguish intolerance all against ourselves
Because you leave, because you
She has an English version of this song = th-cam.com/video/PYvyHPf2Mt8/w-d-xo.html
It's amazing in English toooooo
That's version 2, which is kinda funky compared to version 1 which is more in keeping with her style of music
th-cam.com/video/j1QrGjbYIo0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nKWYgEV6_KjwkiMB
Lara de the best !
Love your way of explaining this song
Hat to you Brandon the best Lara reaction without anderstanding a single À midiword hat from French fzns
Everything rhymes with nothing when you are not even afraid anymore
All the reasons to stay are theirs
Nothing holds you back
Especially not happiness
That you are no longer looking
It's no longer time
I'm here not to regret the absence
Words and connections that prevent silence
Please tell me what we'll see too late
Is the last confession this look
Because you're leaving
Because you're leaving
We will remain broken in the face of the irreparable
Because you're leaving
Because you're leaving

Because you're leaving
Swears that this failure
Is not your future
What will have taken your head
Forget it to choose you
And if you will
We will break the mouth
At this stroke of fate
Who makes alone
Because you're leaving
Because you're leaving
We will remain broken in the face of the irreparable
Because you're leaving
