This woman just casually spits out soprano high E flats and F Sharps like they were nothing on a random day and still to this day is the only person who’s most accurately covered this masterpiece.
As a regular human, I don’t really understand what any of those words mean! As a guitarist, I need about 3 meters more neck and about 30 extra hands to even come close to doing what Laura did.
Yes out of the 3 best covers of this song Laura is the closest to the original score. Jane Zhang skipped a few notes, however she has a very crystalline head voice tone which makes her performance very pleasant to listen. Dimash's cover is the least accurate (lower key, very simplified run, staccatos less than an octave apart) however he is an entertainer and is definitely the most entertaining to watch. Although simplified, the accuracy in his staccatos are insane.
@@braedynherbst2848 Dimash had to make changes to the original score to be able to sing it. Laura just sang the original. Dimash is an amazing singer but he couldn't sing the original diva dance.
@@binomesprite7829 I was not taking anything away from her. I was just saying that i believe that Sarah can do it too. No need to get pissed or anything :) She did great, i just think that there are more singers out there that can sing this.
The synthesised sequences of this song were intentionally written to be impossible to sing for a human. Maybe someone should have told Laura before she absolutely nailed them...
Wow I sing opera as a tenor obviously but damn the way you do those precise note slides especially with the fast part that is very pronounced and clean, no slurs. Even for tenor songs I struggle with fast notes together, I however do have the power to sing nessun dorma. Anyway congrats dear x

Listen to this performance of this aria by the alien diva Plavalaguna! th-cam.com/video/zgktGWaJ-j4/w-d-xo.html 😍 (The virtuoso part in that video starts at 03.20, singer - Lia Krasilovskaya)
geekbaritone Don't worry, I think I know what a colatura soprano is(you can check what musical videos I usually watch). Despite all of that unnecesary introduction to music (even though I appreciate it) this is a lovely and very good performance.
Won't lie - I've spent a few hours of this morning listening to people perform this since learning that individuals CAN sing this. And this girl right here - she's the best, bar none. I mean... holy crap.
No that dude doesn't sing a lot of it right and slurs notes together, etc. This is the best live performance of the song I've found so far: th-cam.com/video/SPf2ANjUbrY/w-d-xo.html

13 years later, you still have the best and most authentic performance of this song, by a long shot! You, my friend, are underrated, even with those 8.3 mill views! I applaud you!!!
I have at least 35 different singers performing The Diva Dance, and YOU are the ONLY one that has hit every note as written. You didn't have to rewrite it to remove the Octave drops to suit your voice, your voice was perfectly capable of hitting each note! Amazing, as this song was actually written so as to not be able to be sung correctly by a human. :-) Thank you, thank you for posting your talent!

She's just doing this almost so effortlessly that she can take the time to think about: "did I hit this note correctly?". You can see that in the last one especially!

wow, amazed to find you here! and so glad you heard this version :D beside Dimash and Laura, noone came close enough to sing Diva Dance perfectly. You should hear Dimashs version in Bastau 2017, it's much better than the one you made a reaction video, because there he was still recovering from being sick =)
You... You sang the autotune parts.. Welcome to earth Edit 2020: Its a shame I haven't been back to this video since I was 15 (when I wrote this) I'm a little bit taken a back by the amount of likes and responses. To explain myself, I knew autotune was editing but I obviously didn't know that it didn't cover this type of editing. Which is recordings cut together to create an alien like voice :3 I will always love this video and my original comment was supposed to express the amount of amazed shock I was in from Laura's performance. I dont know if it came off in the wrong way at all, this wasn't a dig at her at all. I'm sorry if I came across that way, I was a dumb 15 year old XD I think it's time to watch the fifth element again! Hell yeah 😎
Bon True. But there is one part that was digitally modified. It's still her voice but it's not humanly possible to change notes that fast and so accurately.
I first watched the fifth element about 7 years back and found this video within that year. I've consistently returned to this video because it never gets old. Love it even more each time I re watch it. And the thing is I will sit here and listen to it on loop. Granted I don't do that every day but for not getting tired of a song after 7 years of listening to it... I think that says a LOT.
Forget the thousands of stupid Adele and Katy Perry covers. Those are easy songs to sing. Now THIS.....is on a whole different level. You just don't get up one day and sing fucking opera´...and THIS specific song. This lady is amazing and has worked her ass off to be able to do this.
to be fair she couldnt go as low as the "original" is, but afaik know the producers mixed a male voice into the low parts, so she actually couldnt do it perfectly. still a very stunning performance
I can't believe how stupid some ppl are. The sing is not "not possible" to sing at all. In the movie it's just about the flute added with the computer at the one part. But that's all thats impossible...because a human is not a flute!
@@BloodofPatriots NOP, she was too young for that piece and her voice was/is VERY high, so in the middles sounds awful, sounding like a old lady trying to swallow something, but in the other hand the high notes sound well, and of course the lack of technic with the flute part sounds very unconfortable for her and hilly. This video is more acurate and closer.
Seriously, I am floored. I have come back to listen to you and this track so much. I have not heard ANYONE do better. I just finished watching Jane Zhang perform this live with a full orchestra behind her and shit tons of money backing the performance and you STILL mark the example of how 'it's done'. This song, deliberately was written to be impossible by humans. You proved he failed to do that. You are exceptional. Never stop doing it.
Zhang is garbage. I have no idea why so many people like her. She's known for hitting those high notes very well but that's about it. Everything else she does, I can hardly bare to listen..
Y'all need to stop degrading Jane just because she has a full orchestra behind her,which rly doesn't do anything to help her sing btr. Jane also didn't have any vocal guide like here Laura did(Jane even took off her in-ear).Of course,Laura had done a really really good job here, but she can retake it as many times as she wants while Jane can only do it once(still not degrading them but just pointing it out.Also I'm pretty sure both of them had rehearsed really hard on this piece,so don"t "Jane can rehearse"on me).
14 years later I just find the best performance (Canon wise), of the partitura. Beautiful Powerful, and so, so damn accurate and this part is what stroke me as career musician. Really congratz for the work made on that voice.
I remember years ago, I watched this clip so many times, and thought she was one of the best. After having seen many others over the years, I now know this lady is just simply by far the very best. ( I must point out the fact that she sang it right after introducing her self, sounded to me like a first take? How is that even humanly possible)
@@Coralista_zee Dimash sang a great version of it, but it is far from the most accurate to the original. This version is probably the most accurate I've heard.
@@yell0w355 dimash's version isn't the most accurate because he is an original singer and wants to show that he can hit every note perfectly (which he does) and then go even further by adding tougher notes, movements, and more. He is always about taking a song, singing it to perfection, and then improving it to a level he thinks suits his own style
wow really awesome! in the original movie version, they made that short jumping parts in the voice by computer, but you almost managaed it by you own, uncut voice! my deepest respect!
Not exactly, because the original in the movie wasn't sung by Evgenia but by Inva Mula. Evgenia did a cover herself but everything of the song^^ The part in the movie was indeed edited because they thought it humanly impossible
This is true. I myself thought it was humanly impossible because Mula said so and because the original soundtrack is so obviously edited (certain notes sounding like they were made on a synthesizer). I was suspicious when this girl started singing with a background track that she would just drop out at the hard jumps and make it look like she was still singing, but it seems that she did indeed manage to sing "the impossible song" without editing her own voice. Sounds better than the original, in my opinion, because it sounds natural. I wish she'd attempted the aria too. The "Il dolce suono" aria is truly beautiful (and a bit creepy given its context in the original opera "Lucia di Lammermoor").
Wow. I was always looking to found a video of someone nailing that song. I remembered back then when tbey say it will never be done by human. So far every video or interpretation i seen, they we're right. Some people skip notes or adjust this and that. You didn't. Every notes, every vibes, every tone. PERFECT. You deserve more recognition. Bravo.
@@wolker213 It's better because it's natural. You don't hear any fake sampled synth stops in those crazy runs( which would be obvious to anyone in the music business quite honestly)..she breathes all the way through all the notes throughout the entire piece. Bravo!
I really loved this song ever since I first heard it but the computer enhancement lowered the experience. I just thought that's it wouldn't be humanly possible to sing like that - the speed of changing the tones ... this is absolutely amazing, bravo
It’s now 15 years later and I’ve tried to look up every performance of this song and absolutely NO ONE does it like you! You were the first I ever listened to. I was blown away by the precision, so now when I listen to anyone else there always comes a shortcoming and I’m like “nope!” You are the standard that all others pale before! Thank you for your gorgeous talent!
OH MY GOD!!!!! This was a little slice of heaven! I can't believe I am just now seeing this. That scene from The Fifth Element is absolutely mesmerizing, and to have you actually sing something which is not supposed to be singable by a human is incredible. I'd love to see you actually sing the whole piece, including the operatic portion.
You do realize that the voice in the movie is modified and therefor shouldn't be replicable by humans you just didn't gave a damn about it and you went there IT IS F**KING AMAZING!!!!!!! you're voice is a real talent, Thank you
Yes, at first I was skeptical regarding the fact they modified the voice for the movie but then I listened to the whole video and... Well, the performance was simply stunning ! What a voice !
I can’t stop watching this, sooooo impressive. I play the movie clip and then play this one. A lady and a microphone without millions of dollars of sound equipment and effects. Again so impressive!!! Keep rock’n
I can't recall how many times I've watched the movie or this video. I could watch them both all day every day and still be completely, utterly, blissfully happy. So incredibly beautiful. Thank you Laura for giving the world the most righteous "hold my beer" performance. Absolute proof that you can do ANYTHING you set your mind to. ❤
Out of all the performances of the "Diva Dance" song, this is my favorite. So powerful and perfect. As soon as she hit the first high note, I had goosebumps. She looks like a more beautiful version of Pam from The Office.
its been 14 years... and i have this video saved for whenever they say ommmgggggggggg that random singer in that random talent show its so good... he has such a good voice... im like no... that voice is trash... they are like nuhuuuh, like you know a good voice... im like peach please... and i proceed to show them this video. no more arguing after that... they usually walk away speechless. thank you disneydiva7 ... you have help me win so many arguments.
@@disneydiva7 Hey!! you should hear bayonetta 3 fertile rondo, the japanese version, the english version it's also good! Anyway, both are quite alike the fifth element diva song but like a new opera song in the same style or same genre(? Hope you like it!!
12 years latter and still holds up as an amazing version of my favourite song from my favourite movie (lots of favourites I know). Well done! Great vocal range!
Even after all of these years I've not heard anyone give this a go that got any closer than Laura. What an amazing singing voice. So yeah the computerized section is literally impossible for any human to duplicate precisely but I've not heard anyone do any better than Laura on that part.
It's 2021 and you gave me chills... Being it's 21 what are you up too? Still singing doing any live performances? I'd buy a ticket indeed ! Had to edit this: The second time I listened the high electrified pitch went right through me. emotional vibrations through all my Chakras. wow !
Breathtaking...literally takes a perfect breath control. Such voice clarity! If Luc eventually decides to release a sequel to 5th Element, we know exactly who will play Plavalaguna's part. Only this time she will survive.
Of all the covers of this song on the internet, even the super star mega produced videos out there, you are the only person who got the song not 100 % perfect in every way, but tackled it and sang it 100 % right in every way, you tried to sing the hard part, and you sang the damned hard part and you did it well enough that i say you have the best cover of this song on the internet.
Flabbergasted! Honey you ought to do the entire piece! Millions would have braingasm hearing you sing it. I'm no expert but your rendition seems so close to perfection.
Best. Hands. Down. I wish I had my whistle register back... You're so lucky and blessed with talent. I can't even... Wish I could like this more than once.
It’s been 13 years since I first saw this and I had the pleasure of showing this to my partner today and seeing her reaction. Still absolutely phenomenal.
Umm, I’ve listened to Dinash and Zhang and countless others, and this is legitimately the closest a human has ever come to actually singing this song as written. What ever happened to this girl, and why did she disappear?
She did it way back in 2008 when the internet/social media and TH-cam was still in infancy stages. If she did this today, she would have absolutely blown up
Can someone please tell me how I can LIKE this a million times over? DAMN YOU CAN SING IT! Kudos to you Laura! I'm a fan! :P (Yes... I tried in my room and my family came running in asking if I was ok. Seriously, I am THAT GOOD. -_____- )
It's too good. I keep showing it to my various musician friends who's jaws always hit the floor. This is a piece that shouldn't be achievable by someone who is unaided by technology but.... there it is for all to see. Brilliant!
I'm legitimately in shock! Like.. wow. Just. Holy crap that was ASTOUNDING! That impeccable flow between chest and head voice! You hit every jump between the notes! I can't even explain how much this has ROCKED me to my core!
Amanda Nelson actually I saw the lady from china. This girl hits the notes better than her. Also this lady took on the impossible part and was better then the chinese lady
+Han solo It annoys ME that coloratura sopranos are singing this high and quick in opera houses, university music dept practice rooms, and all over the world, with no mics, over orchestras night after night, and yet nobody gives a sh*t unless someone is on a talent show lol. (PS. I am just adding to your comment as a tangent. I totally agree with your comment :) )
MrGreenAKAguci00 It is still technically impossible. All of the covers come very close, but there are still incomplete musical sentences because it is physically impossible to change pitch at the speed of the original, especially since the original was spliced recordings put together specifically MADE to be impossible. The writer himself has said no one has done it perfectly, including this woman and many others.
It has more to do with the accessibility. The talent show chick showed up in my recommended while this video I had to search. And obviously someone on a big talent show will receive more attention than people in practice rooms and random opera houses
I've heard many versions, but in my opinion Laura is the only one during these 23 years to have ever nailed it completely, with every note having perfect pitch, timing and tonal quality.
This woman just casually spits out soprano high E flats and F Sharps like they were nothing on a random day and still to this day is the only person who’s most accurately covered this masterpiece.
The highest note is G, right? I didn't think I could reach it, but apparently I could. Nowhere near as controlled as hers, lol...
As a regular human, I don’t really understand what any of those words mean! As a guitarist, I need about 3 meters more neck and about 30 extra hands to even come close to doing what Laura did.

the original wasn't autotuned actually, that opera singer that does it is considered the best opera singer in the world
MissLizzieLou And actually the first part is harder to sing, this part just impress more.
Bon True. But there is one part that was digitally modified. It's still her voice but it's not humanly possible to change notes that fast and so accurately.
Marcell McKenzie Humanly, the Diva was not.
I first watched the fifth element about 7 years back and found this video within that year. I've consistently returned to this video because it never gets old. Love it even more each time I re watch it. And the thing is I will sit here and listen to it on loop. Granted I don't do that every day but for not getting tired of a song after 7 years of listening to it... I think that says a LOT.
Forget the thousands of stupid Adele and Katy Perry covers. Those are easy songs to sing. Now THIS.....is on a whole different level. You just don't get up one day and sing fucking opera´...and THIS specific song. This lady is amazing and has worked her ass off to be able to do this.
+Kaylasa JaguarStar stfu loser
+CGagnon5 why don't you shut up
Songs at that level are legendary and just to sing those songs is amazing! even if you make a little mistake you kill it any way ;)
Kaylasa JaguarStar agreed. my jaw dropped. just amazing and beautiful all in one voice.
Kaylasa JaguarStar it's mostly computer generated sound. all singers use something lately
For the past 14 years whenever I feel down I listen to you sing this. Always helps!
Awwww!! I love that! Thank you. 😘😘😘
@@disneydiva7 you are precious, dont forget that. Lots of people Love you and your talents!
@@AbuHajarAlBugatti 😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰
This is still the absolute closest any human being has come to nailing this song. There is no competition.
Agree.
You right , this is the best version on youtube ,and on this planet !
So Inva Mula is not a human being ?
eXEPT it was a human being who wrote, and performed the song origionally...
mizzury54 Mula sang the whole song except the famous part
Undefeated in 2021. Yes Im a year early but in twelve months this will still be true.
facts😂
Just came by to say that I'm still watching this in 2025 ...
ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ nice you’re from the future hi there! Lol
Search Dimash Kudaibergen Il dolce suono, bruh
She's still better than dimash...in my opinion...
It says something about yourself when you can do something that the movie-makers themselves said was explicitly impossible.
to be fair she couldnt go as low as the "original" is, but afaik know the producers mixed a male voice into the low parts, so she actually couldnt do it perfectly. still a very stunning performance
Still, this is the closest in the whole Internet. As close to perfection as it gets
Technically the official source *is* impossible without voice modifiers, but this was damn good for a supposed human.
I can't believe how stupid some ppl are. The sing is not "not possible" to sing at all. In the movie it's just about the flute added with the computer at the one part. But that's all thats impossible...because a human is not a flute!
@@wioi it's impossible because the notes change too fast for a human to physically catch up with. Not because there's a flute in there
That "sorry" smile in the end kills me every time. What an artist.
1:38 closer than anyone I've heard. That note is practically impossible and you pretty much nailed it 9/10. Great work. Wonderful voice.
İn original it’s a synth sample something like that, she sang it that’s incredible...
9/10?? LMAO! What else does this lady have to do for you?
@@blissboo3892turn blue and be on a space cruiser i guess? xD
This was closer: th-cam.com/video/hmIeijo7s80/w-d-xo.html
@@BloodofPatriots NOP, she was too young for that piece and her voice was/is VERY high, so in the middles sounds awful, sounding like a old lady trying to swallow something, but in the other hand the high notes sound well, and of course the lack of technic with the flute part sounds very unconfortable for her and hilly.
This video is more acurate and closer.
Seriously, I am floored. I have come back to listen to you and this track so much. I have not heard ANYONE do better. I just finished watching Jane Zhang perform this live with a full orchestra behind her and shit tons of money backing the performance and you STILL mark the example of how 'it's done'.
This song, deliberately was written to be impossible by humans. You proved he failed to do that. You are exceptional. Never stop doing it.
Yeah, Zhang couldn't nail the 'impossible' flutter part but this gal here did.
If it's written by man it can be sung by man.
Zhang is garbage. I have no idea why so many people like her. She's known for hitting those high notes very well but that's about it. Everything else she does, I can hardly bare to listen..
totally agree!
Y'all need to stop degrading Jane just because she has a full orchestra behind her,which rly doesn't do anything to help her sing btr. Jane also didn't have any vocal guide like here Laura did(Jane even took off her in-ear).Of course,Laura had done a really really good job here, but she can retake it as many times as she wants while Jane can only do it once(still not degrading them but just pointing it out.Also I'm pretty sure both of them had rehearsed really hard on this piece,so don"t "Jane can rehearse"on me).
Composer: I wrote this so that no human voice can sing it
Girl: Hold my drink...
The fact this is Truth
14 years later I just find the best performance (Canon wise), of the partitura. Beautiful Powerful, and so, so damn accurate and this part is what stroke me as career musician. Really congratz for the work made on that voice.
I remember years ago, I watched this clip so many times, and thought she was one of the best. After having seen many others over the years, I now know this lady is just simply by far the very best.
( I must point out the fact that she sang it right after introducing her self, sounded to me like a first take? How is that even humanly possible)
Check out Dimash's version in Batsu concert. It seems like it is humanly possible
I didn't catch that---Way to go for pointing this out!!!!!!!!!
Zenia Shah Yes but his version is changed from the original
@@Coralista_zee Dimash sang a great version of it, but it is far from the most accurate to the original. This version is probably the most accurate I've heard.
@@yell0w355 dimash's version isn't the most accurate because he is an original singer and wants to show that he can hit every note perfectly (which he does) and then go even further by adding tougher notes, movements, and more. He is always about taking a song, singing it to perfection, and then improving it to a level he thinks suits his own style
wow really awesome! in the original movie version, they made that short jumping parts in the voice by computer, but you almost managaed it by you own, uncut voice!
my deepest respect!
No Evgenia Laguna sung the entire song in the move unedited and untouched with her vocal range Evgenia is the QUEEN of opera
This girl doesn't compare
Jessi Stepaloupuss
seriously? I thought it was edited for real!... wow!
*****
... sooo... I was right after all?
Not exactly, because the original in the movie wasn't sung by Evgenia but by Inva Mula. Evgenia did a cover herself but everything of the song^^
The part in the movie was indeed edited because they thought it humanly impossible
This is true. I myself thought it was humanly impossible because Mula said so and because the original soundtrack is so obviously edited (certain notes sounding like they were made on a synthesizer). I was suspicious when this girl started singing with a background track that she would just drop out at the hard jumps and make it look like she was still singing, but it seems that she did indeed manage to sing "the impossible song" without editing her own voice. Sounds better than the original, in my opinion, because it sounds natural. I wish she'd attempted the aria too. The "Il dolce suono" aria is truly beautiful (and a bit creepy given its context in the original opera "Lucia di Lammermoor").
Wow. I was always looking to found a video of someone nailing that song. I remembered back then when tbey say it will never be done by human. So far every video or interpretation i seen, they we're right. Some people skip notes or adjust this and that. You didn't. Every notes, every vibes, every tone. PERFECT. You deserve more recognition. Bravo.
Thank you!
Cleanest version since the movie ive heard. Bravo
Im my opinion its even better in some way.
@@wolker213 It's better because it's natural. You don't hear any fake sampled synth stops in those crazy runs( which would be obvious to anyone in the music business quite honestly)..she breathes all the way through all the notes throughout the entire piece. Bravo!
What about Jane Zhang?
Did you listen to the Dimash version ? Listen to his low notes; the staccato and his last high note. Amazing
@@subliminal5543 Jane sang it well and enjoyed her performance. Of course she cannot reach the low notes as a soprano but it was delivered nicely.
11 years later still the best cover on TH-cam.
The only human to ever actually pull it off. Incredible.
I came back here 15 years since it came out... just to have my jaw drop again... woman has got TALENT!!!
I still remember watching this video when it first came out and being blown away, rewatching the vid over and over again. Amazing!
Am I the only one who loves the expressions she makes while slaying this song :) I hope you're ok Laura
yes.
Love the snarl face.
😂😂 "I hope you're ok"
Oh wait you weren't talking about her recovery from the facial expressions
I really loved this song ever since I first heard it but the computer enhancement lowered the experience. I just thought that's it wouldn't be humanly possible to sing like that - the speed of changing the tones ... this is absolutely amazing, bravo
Oh my God!!! There is really a human being who can perfectly reproduce this song!!! O M G!!
undefeated still in 2020 (now 2021)... we all know dimash... but this performance breaks the internet.
PS: ty for the likes n.n
Well...it's older and probably one of the first to attempt it on camera. She did amazing though
@@spongebobswindow7472its an old song rly. .. but no one do The Diva Song this acurate like her....
Ps: sry at my eng... im from argentina
@@themarushin its okay. I have bad english too. I agree she was amazing!
2020, and this is the first time I listen to this !! incredible ! I was sure this song was Autotune...
th-cam.com/video/lxB91F3zdrc/w-d-xo.html
geez, I know that was hard.
even for women with vocals that can produce higher pitch sounds.
you were perfect girl.
jacob anderson no one is perfect
It’s now 15 years later and I’ve tried to look up every performance of this song and absolutely NO ONE does it like you! You were the first I ever listened to. I was blown away by the precision, so now when I listen to anyone else there always comes a shortcoming and I’m like “nope!” You are the standard that all others pale before! Thank you for your gorgeous talent!
I watched this years ago. Watched it again today... Speechless. Incredible!
OH MY GOD!!!!! This was a little slice of heaven! I can't believe I am just now seeing this. That scene from The Fifth Element is absolutely mesmerizing, and to have you actually sing something which is not supposed to be singable by a human is incredible. I'd love to see you actually sing the whole piece, including the operatic portion.
I agree, Laura could make it possible with ease and grace!! Powerhouse vocal delight!
You do realize that the voice in the movie is modified and therefor shouldn't be replicable by humans
you just didn't gave a damn about it and you went there
IT IS F**KING AMAZING!!!!!!!
you're voice is a real talent, Thank you
Yes, at first I was skeptical regarding the fact they modified the voice for the movie but then I listened to the whole video and... Well, the performance was simply stunning ! What a voice !
I came here from TikTok, I'm floored, I'm impressed, I'm wowed. Well done, Bravo! Bravo!
Thanks Eric!!!
I can’t stop watching this, sooooo impressive. I play the movie clip and then play this one. A lady and a microphone without millions of dollars of sound equipment and effects. Again so impressive!!! Keep rock’n
7 years later still the best one.
14 years after the recording and yet still the only performance sides the original that gives me goosebumps. hope your doin well. awesome job.
This is a PERFECT performance!!!!
I hope someone out there sponsors this incredible singer, she's beyond most singers I've ever heard.
I can't recall how many times I've watched the movie or this video. I could watch them both all day every day and still be completely, utterly, blissfully happy. So incredibly beautiful. Thank you Laura for giving the world the most righteous "hold my beer" performance. Absolute proof that you can do ANYTHING you set your mind to. ❤
Thank you!!! 😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️
no sé porque la vida no me mostró este vídeo antes, arte, simplemente arte
Out of all the performances of the "Diva Dance" song, this is my favorite. So powerful and perfect. As soon as she hit the first high note, I had goosebumps. She looks like a more beautiful version of Pam from The Office.
its been 14 years... and i have this video saved for whenever they say ommmgggggggggg that random singer in that random talent show its so good... he has such a good voice... im like no... that voice is trash... they are like nuhuuuh, like you know a good voice... im like peach please... and i proceed to show them this video.
no more arguing after that... they usually walk away speechless.
thank you disneydiva7 ... you have help me win so many arguments.
Hahaha!!! Love this! Thanks! 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰
@@disneydiva7 Hey!! you should hear bayonetta 3 fertile rondo, the japanese version, the english version it's also good! Anyway, both are quite alike the fifth element diva song but like a new opera song in the same style or same genre(?
Hope you like it!!
I know this video since I was a teenager and Im still in love with her voice, I hope she's doing amazing!
Doing great! Just started posting a few new videos. Thanks for the love! 🥰🥰
You know its good when your ears are about to pop.
Girl you are from another world. That was incredible.
12 years latter and still holds up as an amazing version of my favourite song from my favourite movie (lots of favourites I know). Well done! Great vocal range!
Even after all of these years I've not heard anyone give this a go that got any closer than Laura. What an amazing singing voice. So yeah the computerized section is literally impossible for any human to duplicate precisely but I've not heard anyone do any better than Laura on that part.
her windows must be metal
+Jason Leo Hahahaha
Lol! I wish I could sing high pitched like her!
Lmao imagine the neighbours reaction
Hahah
This is the best comment in whole TH-cam. 😂😂
It's 2021 and you gave me chills... Being it's 21 what are you up too? Still singing
doing any live performances? I'd buy a ticket indeed !
Had to edit this: The second time I listened the high electrified pitch went right through me.
emotional vibrations through all my Chakras. wow !
Año 2023, y no hay nadie que te supere. No existe nadie quien haya llegado a lo que tú has llegado. Felicitaciones 😊
Breathtaking...literally takes a perfect breath control. Such voice clarity! If Luc eventually decides to release a sequel to 5th Element, we know exactly who will play Plavalaguna's part. Only this time she will survive.
Of all the covers of this song on the internet, even the super star mega produced videos out there, you are the only person who got the song not 100 % perfect in every way, but tackled it and sang it 100 % right in every way, you tried to sing the hard part, and you sang the damned hard part and you did it well enough that i say you have the best cover of this song on the internet.
Darathu so u didn't notice that these were not her isolated vocals then? She's singing along to the original
Best live performance right here: th-cam.com/video/SPf2ANjUbrY/w-d-xo.html
@@charleneosborne6384 Yeah so?
@@charleneosborne6384 I did but if you listen she does sing it.
Flabbergasted! Honey you ought to do the entire piece! Millions would have braingasm hearing you sing it. I'm no expert but your rendition seems so close to perfection.
I don't know why, but this made me cry. Such talent, such nostalgia, such beauty. Sheesh, thank you for sharing.
@@Nausikah420 thanks! 🫶
@@Nausikah420 🥹❤️
Best. Hands. Down. I wish I had my whistle register back... You're so lucky and blessed with talent. I can't even... Wish I could like this more than once.
My music teacher showed me this a long time ago to review notes... This girl is the only one I have seen that can actually hit alien notes!! Amazing!!
1:19 how the hell is it possible to go up that high? Its inhuman!!
training and knowing how to reach high head voice and also register exercises to widen your range
I can do it and I'm 11... o-o Its easy.
I doubt that lmao
it's rare and you're probably screaming
Uunamedd it's called a whistle register.
It’s been 13 years since I first saw this and I had the pleasure of showing this to my partner today and seeing her reaction. Still absolutely phenomenal.
I have never said anyone is better than Dimash Kudaibergen but I think you covered this even better than Dimash, I am BLOWN AWAY
Umm, I’ve listened to Dinash and Zhang and countless others, and this is legitimately the closest a human has ever come to actually singing this song as written. What ever happened to this girl, and why did she disappear?
She did it way back in 2008 when the internet/social media and TH-cam was still in infancy stages. If she did this today, she would have absolutely blown up
Agreed. none have come to close to her so far.
not live，with backtrack
She nails it!!!!
The actual blue skinned beings took her from our world
I'm no expert but Laura, emphasises her notes, amazing sharpness & clarity. one of my all time favs.
Found this when it came out, found it again. Thank you for having this still!!!!! One of my favorites forever.
Can someone please tell me how I can LIKE this a million times over? DAMN YOU CAN SING IT! Kudos to you Laura! I'm a fan! :P
(Yes... I tried in my room and my family came running in asking if I was ok. Seriously, I am THAT GOOD. -_____- )
(Yes... I tried in my room and my family came running in asking if I was ok. Seriously, I am THAT GOOD. -_____- )
lmao
Hahahahahahah!!!..ur funny
I'm laughing(so loud) in my room reading ur comment and my cousin came asking if I was ok...lol
It's too good. I keep showing it to my various musician friends who's jaws always hit the floor. This is a piece that shouldn't be achievable by someone who is unaided by technology but.... there it is for all to see. Brilliant!
Holy shit!!! Almost 2019 and this is the 1st time I've seen this. Pitch and control perfect
Best version on TH-cam.
I'm legitimately in shock! Like.. wow. Just. Holy crap that was ASTOUNDING! That impeccable flow between chest and head voice! You hit every jump between the notes! I can't even explain how much this has ROCKED me to my core!
Best cover
Maria Luiza nope a lady from China killed it. Makes this look funny to watch
Amanda Nelson actually I saw the lady from china. This girl hits the notes better than her. Also this lady took on the impossible part and was better then the chinese lady
Amanda Nelson That's your opinion. In my opinion, this is way better...
BLΛƆKPIИK so many kpop fans 😂
M a y a We're everywhere.
it really annoys me that they're giving a girl in a talent show all the buzz when this woman is doing it 10 times better than she did
+Han solo It annoys ME that coloratura sopranos are singing this high and quick in opera houses, university music dept practice rooms, and all over the world, with no mics, over orchestras night after night, and yet nobody gives a sh*t unless someone is on a talent show lol. (PS. I am just adding to your comment as a tangent. I totally agree with your comment :) )
rachel stewart exactly and they claim that this piece is impossible to be sang.
MrGreenAKAguci00 No, but a portion on this song is impossible to sing.
MrGreenAKAguci00 It is still technically impossible. All of the covers come very close, but there are still incomplete musical sentences because it is physically impossible to change pitch at the speed of the original, especially since the original was spliced recordings put together specifically MADE to be impossible. The writer himself has said no one has done it perfectly, including this woman and many others.
It has more to do with the accessibility. The talent show chick showed up in my recommended while this video I had to search. And obviously someone on a big talent show will receive more attention than people in practice rooms and random opera houses
For the love of all things, please learn the first half. It will be brilliant! You have the best actual cover of this!
Revisiting this video that I already saw in 2008 and still the best cover of this song BY FAR!!
Can we get a 2023 version?
1:19 I love this part
I've heard many versions, but in my opinion Laura is the only one during these 23 years to have ever nailed it completely, with every note having perfect pitch, timing and tonal quality.
2020 and still the most accurate to the movie version.
10/10 masterpiece Laura. I hope and you should be proud of yourself bc this performance is magnificence. Thank you for sharing.
wtf, this can be done only by some blue skin alien species
@TheFecy lul
She's disguised as a human.
Do you mean vitas?
Pretty damn cool for a song that was written to be unsingable by humans.
Yeah, it was supposed to be un-singable by humans.. Wth?
stuns me every time i hear this well done laura simply magnificent
Very awesome. Seems like a good warmup routine :D
warmup for the destruction of your vocal cords that is lol
Kitkat915e lmao lol
