Finally somebody who put words on her performance and talent. She still performs and she still as good as ever. Here in Quebec (Canada) we are proud . She has the biggest heart and she loves her fans.
She is not only a singer she is a story teller, and performer. She puts her whole heart into her singing. And puts you there with her. You feel her pain.
More information on Lara Fabian: Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Lisa Fischer, .... In my personal opinion, she is even the best. There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 8,000 attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register. So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence: • she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for most her songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music with the composer. • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none • she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens. A quick background on her and her career: She is belgian, her father is flemish, but also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( her grandfather is from Detroit). She was raised in sicilia first then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages. She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory. She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada. She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She just moved back to Italy a few months ago (temporarily?). She became very famous in Quebec and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music). In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US. This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on). But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan. She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance. She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), … With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there. Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her. She is Dimash's idol: I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep. He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara. Out of my mind I can list: ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version) ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know") She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love". And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva). Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara. Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration: ○ Floor Jansen (Adagio), ○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime), ○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie), ○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow), ○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace), ○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow), ○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio) ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular. On April and May 2023 she had again a wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, and in Ouzbekhistan and Kazakhstan. Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
For me i have always been amazed how into the character she is….at the end of the song it takes a few minutes for her to draw her self back out of the despair of the character.
“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973. This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …). When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours. The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes. Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad. But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s. At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version. She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone. Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on. The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella. Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic th-cam.com/video/SyILdRAOS88/w-d-xo.html
To add another layer to her singing this song, Lara exhibited all 5 stages of grief in the performance. From denial, anger, bargaining, depression and then acceptance at the end. It's insane how deep this performance is.
Habib darling. We don't need you to sing like Lara or Dimash. You are enough on your own. You yourself. What you do as an individual is fantastic. You be you, because no one else is like you. I am one of the 70,000 and I keep coming back, so that must mean something.
@@ArabManReacts They are telling the truth, I hooked on to your reaction channel before we were halfway through your first reaction. I have another version of this song that I swear you will enjoy. Here is the link, if I say more it will diminish the joy of the discovery. th-cam.com/video/Q-YhC_o3G1M/w-d-xo.html Emma Cerchi 'Je' suis Malade' by Lara Fabian.
@@Jaycee-Bee I have always found it deeply disturbing that she ended up married to him when you think of how young she was when he became her manager. So i would call him not only a prick but other things to.
I,m afraid i mostly desolve into tears when i hear this gorgeous singer , she is so emotive the way she performs !!! i,m an 84 year old man !Truly Lara is the best Female singer the World has ever known !#
If you want se how Lara Fabien make 82000 people simultaneously shouting in awe after an breathtaking performance with Johnny select: Johnny et Lara Fabian "Requiem pour un fou" This is how to make 82000 people (in rain) remember you for life.
Finally!!!😂😂...Lol!!...This a masterpiece by The Goddess Lara Fabian!!...Thank you very much for your wonderful reaction!!...Please keep going with her stunning performances my friend!!
Well that's it, you are now trap in her rabbit hole and you are only at her beginning, she went to Russia around 2008 and the great Igor Krutoy fell in love with her , saying she was the best female vocaliste in the world (same with David Foster) Igor then produced with her a movie (58 minutes,12 songs) title is Mademoiselle Zihvago , he composed the music and she wrote the lyrics, starting in 2010 they fill-up the Kremlin so often from 2010-2016, she became the biggest female singer in Eastern Europe, thats when Dimash was a kid and she became is biggest Fan, from that album, Dimash covered a lot of her songs. She is now 53yo still touring the world with her great performance and her look is sensational, have to say, she is from an other planet.
You just listened to THE BEST song ever filmed!!!!! ❤❤❤ .. got curious about who she was trough listening to Dimash .. and yes, a more emotional singer does not excist! Greatings from an old Danish Dear and Angel 🌷🇩🇰❤️
If you’re going to fall down the Lara Fabian rabbit hole, I’m here for the ride!!! Lol she certainly the best of the best! Can’t wait to see your next Lara reaction (I suggest Caruso or You’re not from Here, both from this same concert)
Not early 90's but the end of 90's. 1999 exactly. Everything you said about her and her way of perform was on point. And after 25 years of listening her i can underline that...She is the greatest female singer on earth! And it would be a heck of an artist and vocalist who ever can surpass her. I know i'm dead before that happens. Just keep her in your reaction road. 😎
Love her ❤ She's got everything, she's actually a very sincere and good hearted human being. Also, great actress and comedian. 😊 she can be very funny 😄 Love and respect her soo much!🙏 One more thing....she aged like fine wine.
If you want to see a truly stunning performance in storytelling, then you need to see her performance of LOVE BY GRACE at the 2001 Canadian Juno awards. She is barefoot, sitting in a chair and singing directly to your heart. Love your work.
Lara Fabian is an absolute singer's singer ! One of the greatest female artists in the world today ! Her stage presence and performances are truly remarkable and masterful in all aspects ! Lara and Celine came on the world stage at avout the same time but it eas Celine who received greater accolades and fame for sure but in reality it is Lara in my opinion who stands higher in her vocal abilities ! She is as good as it gets ! I'm so glad she resides in Canada and we get to see her a lot ! Thank you again for exploring your horizons and reacting to a supreme superstar ! Take care my friend and keep up the tremendous work ! It is so muxh appreciated ! If you get a chance in the near future i would suggest a listen to one of the greatest male vocalist ever ! His performance of the Beatles song "Help" with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra live in concert in 1980 will blow your socks off ! A masterful performance is in store for you ! Thanks and much kove from Canada ! 👍🇨🇦❤️
Very happy that I was able to discover this immense performer. Indeed, if we look at all of her abilities on stage (the package), she is the best performer in the world of her generation and still today!
Muy de acuerdo contigo. Es la mejor cantante del mundo. Durante la pandemia primero descubrí a Lara. Luego al gran Dimash. Los dos mejores en cada género me deleitaron la vida en esos momentos y sigo disfrutando de sus talentos. Saludos desde Argentina
You are right. DIMASH got inspiration from her. They also performed together in a trio with Aida Garlifullina. The song is “ Ti Amo Cosi “. Check it out. You will love it. Lara is one of the best female vocalist in the world. She always is amazing. Thank you for the great reaction. Hug from Vietnam 🇻🇳.
Lara además de ser una excelente cantante es una gran actriz yo no me canso de oírla pues disfruto también verla ella se conecta de tal manera en la canción que además de cantar narra la historia la vive si miras el final te darás cuenta como le cuesta salirse de lo que acaba de cantar échale un vistazo de nuevo y verás ella es genial . Yo la conocí por Dimash otro genio musical y actoral . Son seres que para mi son puro arte ,gracias por lo qué haces me gusta mucho tus reacciones demuestras que sientes lo que oyes y eso para mi es importante de los 70000 yo soy una de ellas . Muchas bendiciones para ustedes y sigan haciendo estas cosas lindas y agradables al alma . Gracias ❤
If you actually watch her 2003 preforming this song in Paris she actually does collapse at the end and it's very dear to her because it's the thank you concert for her fans who saved her life in 2002 with her j'taime performance
In my opinion this is, if not the very best performance of any song, anywhere, then it's waaaaaaaaaaaay better than whatever finished third. She is easily the most provocative singer in the world.
We love it when such great talent is recognized, and you are very good at that. Great reaction, Thankyou….don’t be sad….we are all in the same sandbox, but some have a bit of an edge, some have more, and very few can shift mountains.
Linda reacción! Saludos desde Costa Rica! Increíble y hermosa obra maestra impresionante de Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo, la voz de cristal más bella y perfecta que existe! Reacciona por favor a "Caruso", Perderé l'amore, Quédate, You're not from here,To love again,I Guess i loved You,Traviatta! Gracias!
My dear Boudy, what a singer!, great reaction!. I see how emotional you get. Please don’t be sad!, God gave you your own talent and I think you singing is fantastic! It’s your very own given talent. Not everyone can be my Divo eterno not everyone can be Laura Fabian. Congratulations on reaching 70k🎉 (Please see my messages). Thank you! Always love ❤❤
Hands down, you are absolutely correct, good man. Lara is by far the best female singer/performer in the world, not only by her technique, but her storytelling, her connection with the art, so amazing. Thanks for your reaction!
I have it many times before elsewhere. She is the greatest. She reigns supreme. She is the Queen of all singers. I have also mentioned the immense influence she has and has made on Dimash. Good as he is, he still has a lot to work on and to polish up. Thank you for saying outright. Like you said that there are many great singers and artists out there but not one does it in the way Lara Fabian does. People need to know. Thank you so much. I love your reaction.❤
At about ( 7:36-37) look at where the mic is?? In her right hand,by her knee..we all know that mics have compressers in them..the power in this lil lady is such,that they had to have her drop the mic there,so as to not overdrive the audio...it sounds like it is right by her mouth..n..it's at her knee!!!??? What an amazing ,awesome, Artist,indeed!!!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐺🧙♂️👍
🇨🇦 Lara lives in Montreal, Quebec but travels almost every year to Belgium to continue studying music at the best schools ! She is a Lyric Soprano ! If you pay close attention, you will hear her sing Every syllable of every word, in each sentence of each lyric, clearly and completely no matter which language she is singing in ! Below are two comments by Eric Sicard, in which he will tell you a little of Lara's history, and then a little bit of history to this song ! I recommend you react to 3 songs, her duet with Johnny Hallyday called Requiem pour un fou, Her first big hit called I will love again, and one called You're not from here !
Best get to know her Boudy....Celine Dion's management (and Sony record label) did not really want her competing with her in N. America (better singer IMHO) hence, she is so popular in Europe...she is Canadian/Belgium I believe, speaks and sings in multiple languages. She is undoubtedly one of the greatest female singers on this planet with most of her fanbase in Europe. She is in her 50's now and still performing. Any performance from "From Lara With Love" in 2000 are spectacular....well pretty much anything from Lara is spectacular. She is special.
Dimash learned from this beautiful Lady...amazing!She is like his Mentor and it shows.Please react to his latest song 'Omir',composed by him and lyrics written by him for the first time.He released it on his 29th Birthday as a gift and a Thank you to his fans...very beautiful!😊
A couple of things. Of course she was well known in Italy and France and when she went to Canada it was time for her to be discovered by the USA. Well, politics intervened and the powers who 'controlled' Celine Dion made sure that Lara would not get the exposure she was deserving of because the Dion camp knew the audiences would fall in love with Lara. And so, although she was greatly appreciated in Canada, not so for the USA. So back to Europe she went. Btw, this video you were watching was from 1999 or 2000. Yes, you were right on in regards to Dimash. With all the training he received since he was a small child he was 'lacking' the skill to bring emotion into his music. When he heard Lara he marveled at how she was able to do it so beautifully. They crossed paths because they both became associated with the famous Ukrainian-Russian Composer Igor Krutoy and thus started a close friendship between the two of them which still exists today. So, yes, when you hear Dimash bringing a lot of emotion into his music, he mastered the art by watching and listening to Lara. For your information they have sang together and I have one for you to listen to. Igor was celebrating a Birthday Party at an Ice Skating Rink and believe it or not a full orchestra and stars galore were there to celebrate with him. There was one song in particular which 'stole the show'. It was Dimash, Lara and Aida Garifullina singing 'Ti Amo Cosi'. It might take you out of your chair! Lara almost had to cancel because of a recent illness but she didn't want to miss this celebration and she made it. Last little story for you. You spoke about how it is impossible to be taught how Lara can sing like she does. Well, the story is (she told us) she was very little and in the car (back seat) and her father was taking her somewhere and suddenly out of nowhere Lara burst out in song. I don't mean La-La-La. It was so extraordinary her father had to pull over and listen to her sing. That was Lara's magical beginning. I think if you go to Dimash and Ti Amo Cosi it will bring you to the video or go straight to Ti Amo Cosi Dimash and that will get you there, too.
2 additional notes on top of your excellent comment: - Lara also wrote the lyrics of the song Your Love for Dimash - here is the song she replicated as a baby in the car, it’s a very difficult one to mimic 😂 th-cam.com/video/nrArigiMnWY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you Eric for your wonderful follow up. It's no wonder papa had to pull over! 🙂 Btw, I wonder if Patricia Janeckova has ever sang this song? Listening to Patricia sing 'How The West Was Won' ('Once Upon A Time In The West') is one of my favorite video's. Eric, I'm sure you know her but if you don't give her a listen. Choose the video which is 8:54 long. What a treat. I know she would have a field day with the song Lara was singing in the back seat of the car. @@ericsicard910
I very much enjoy your kind and personal reactions to Lara Fabian, Angelina Jordan, Ren, and others. Both the emotional and rational elements. So great to see your spontaneous interjections in Arabic (and thankx for the translations), so entertaining. The world is a better more unified place!
Great reaction!! Would love to see you react to “Je t’aime” live in 2001.. As the story goes. She was going through a lot in her life and her fans knew.. they set it up with her piano player in other parts of her musical team. An just before she started to sing, they sang for her. You can hear someone yell “chante pas Lara” which is don’t sing Lara.. If you can find the one with the subtitles.. it’s so incredibly moving.. Love your reaction! Cheers from 🇨🇦😊
Related to your comment near the end about working to develop a talent like her’s - one of the things I love about Lara is that she still works constantly with her vocal coach. Yes she is gifted by God, but she has taken that gift and worked hard to maintain it.
Love your reaction reviews bro. I totally agree with your take on this goddess Laura Fabian. She is the most amazing performer and golden standard that all artist should look to. Keep it up my friend! 🙂
Yes. The Greatest. No-one does love and loss like Lara. She fully inhabits the story and delivers with incredible nuance, passion and micro-intentionality of every note and breath between. Her management of dynamics is extra-ordinary. Every song a Master Class. You've heard that Dimash studied her closely, and yes, you can see her influences in his work. She sings in many languages and is well known all over Europe, including performing for years with Igor Krutoy. Dimash was thrilled to finally be able to sing with Lara ( and the wonderful emerging Great Soprano; Aida Garifullina } in their stunning performance of TI AMO COSI. You MUST see this one! There are so many wonderful Lara performances, but there are 2 more that are UNMISSABLE! No-one, in my humble opinion, has EVER done a better 'CARUSO',{ # choose the version: "From Lara With Love Concert 2000 } and the 2nd is her 2001 Paris Concert, the entire concert is wonderful, but the song Je Taime { get the tissues out!} is particularly memorable. You'll see why! ENJOY. 😃
She also sang in english and italian, although her songs in those languages didn't have nearly the same success they did as the ones in french. But yeah really her vocal abilities are off the damn charts, and since the late 90s she's indeed had a HUGE success in the french speaking countries. Even if a bunch of songs she sang were covers (like this one, btw), she brought to broader audiences versions that really enhanced the original, without anyone having the feeling she stole anything ^^ She also stayed pretty much outside most of the celebrity drama and stuff, which is a refreshing touch.
Regarding the acapella bit and keeping time: she doesn’t have to keep time there cause in that moment she is the conductor of the band. The head shake is her signal for the band to join in. She can take as long as she wants and they will simply wait for her and her head shake or any other signal they agreed upon.

The absolute pinnacle of emotive performance, together with such vocal capability... this performance is unmatched.
I’ve been saying this since 2012
Finally somebody who put words on her performance and talent. She still performs and she still as good as ever. Here in Quebec (Canada) we are proud . She has the biggest heart and she loves her fans.
she's Belgian though ;) Lara Fabian, Lara Crokaert (Etterbeek, 9 januari 1970)
Finally someone says what I've been feeling for years now....yes she is the best female singer alive today.
... absolutely !
"The greatest female singer on earth" Powerful words but my sentiment exactly.
She is not only a singer she is a story teller, and performer. She puts her whole heart into her singing. And puts you there with her. You feel her pain.
More information on Lara Fabian:
Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Lisa Fischer, ....
In my personal opinion, she is even the best.
There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 8,000 attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register.
So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence:
• she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total
• she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for most her songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music with the composer.
• she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none
• she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens.
A quick background on her and her career:
She is belgian, her father is flemish, but also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( her grandfather is from Detroit). She was raised in sicilia first then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages.
She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today.
She started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada.
She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She just moved
back to Italy a few months ago (temporarily?).
She became very famous in Quebec and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music).
In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US.
This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on).
But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan.
She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance.
She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then.
Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), …
With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there.
Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her.
She is Dimash's idol:
I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep.
He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara.
Out of my mind I can list:
○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version)
○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know")
She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love".
And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva).
Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida.
Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara.
Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it.
Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration:
○ Floor Jansen (Adagio),
○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime),
○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie),
○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow),
○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace),
○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow),
○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow),
○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow),
○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio),

NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version.
Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature.
In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular.
On April and May 2023 she had again a wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, and in Ouzbekhistan and Kazakhstan.
Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
Just perfect! Thx!
Gracias por la información.. saludos desde Venezuela.
Thank you!
For me i have always been amazed how into the character she is….at the end of the song it takes a few minutes for her to draw her self back out of the despair of the character.
“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973.
This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …).
When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours.
The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes.
Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad.
But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s.
At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version.
She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone.
Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on.
The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal)
th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html
is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries.
The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella.
Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic
th-cam.com/video/SyILdRAOS88/w-d-xo.html
To add another layer to her singing this song, Lara exhibited all 5 stages of grief in the performance. From denial, anger, bargaining, depression and then acceptance at the end. It's insane how deep this performance is.
Habib darling. We don't need you to sing like Lara or Dimash. You are enough on your own. You yourself. What you do as an individual is fantastic. You be you, because no one else is like you. I am one of the 70,000 and I keep coming back, so that must mean something.
Wow, thank you
@@ArabManReacts They are telling the truth, I hooked on to your reaction channel before we were halfway through your first reaction. I have another version of this song that I swear you will enjoy. Here is the link, if I say more it will diminish the joy of the discovery.

I totally agree - you are amazing! 💐💐
She’s a Godess.
You cracked it, she is the supreme story teller, but you are part of her story
Lara is legendary, breathtaking talent, one in a generation, and She`s not famous in the USA. Amazing fact
You know why? That She is so good and talented that Celine Dion had her blocked from breaking in there.
@@susannradal9303 René Angélil est le vrai coupable et Céline était complice.
@@Jaycee-BeeYes I know he was known to do these things. Lara really dont need the US they would have tried to change her like they did Celine.
@@susannradal9303 Maybe, but Angélil was a prick and I don't give a shit about Céline.
@@Jaycee-Bee I have always found it deeply disturbing that she ended up married to him when you think of how young she was when he became her manager.
So i would call him not only a prick but other things to.
She is by far the best female singer on Earth. Her talent pushes into the stratosphere!!
She sings a song or two in Arabic. Look for it on TH-cam.
Do you have a link? couldn't find any

If you want se how Lara Fabien make 82000 people simultaneously shouting in awe after an breathtaking performance with Johnny select: Johnny et Lara Fabian "Requiem pour un fou"

Finally!!!😂😂...Lol!!...This a masterpiece by The Goddess Lara Fabian!!...Thank you very much for your wonderful reaction!!...Please keep going with her stunning performances my friend!!
🤗🤗🎶🎶
@@angelafranzin6792 I see you Angela🥰🥰!!
You are certainly doing a great job promoting Lara and Dimash Roimer. 😊
@@KitaBelle23 Thank you 😊 !!...I ❤️ do that!!
Well that's it, you are now trap in her rabbit hole and you are only at her beginning, she went to Russia around 2008 and the great Igor Krutoy fell in love with her , saying she was the best female vocaliste in the world (same with David Foster) Igor then produced with her a movie (58 minutes,12 songs) title is Mademoiselle Zihvago , he composed the music and she wrote the lyrics, starting in 2010 they fill-up the Kremlin so often from 2010-2016, she became the biggest female singer in Eastern Europe, thats when Dimash was a kid and she became is biggest Fan, from that album, Dimash covered a lot of her songs. She is now 53yo still touring the world with her great performance and her look is sensational, have to say, she is from an other planet.
When I saw the thumbnail I said to myself if he doesn't cry on this one I'm Queen Elisabeth 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You just listened to THE BEST song ever filmed!!!!! ❤❤❤ .. got curious about who she was trough listening to Dimash .. and yes, a more emotional singer does not excist!
Greatings from an old Danish Dear and Angel 🌷🇩🇰❤️
I am Russian BUT when Imhearing this song I can not to resist
Thats the french chanson! Its not only singing, but telling you a story.
Yup. And Piaf was the queen.
Lara all the way, ❤
My favourite female singer of all time ❤ Dimash recognized her as being the best there was and decided to emulate her 👏
Greatest female singer on earth...YES! I`m with you! I fall in love with this artist every time i see her. Thank you for a great reaction.
This song and her version of ”Caruso” are my favorites of hers.
If you’re going to fall down the Lara Fabian rabbit hole, I’m here for the ride!!! Lol she certainly the best of the best! Can’t wait to see your next Lara reaction (I suggest Caruso or You’re not from Here, both from this same concert)
Not early 90's but the end of 90's. 1999 exactly. Everything you said about her and her way of perform was on point. And after 25 years of listening her i can underline that...She is the greatest female singer on earth! And it would be a heck of an artist and vocalist who ever can surpass her. I know i'm dead before that happens. Just keep her in your reaction road. 😎
j'apprécie beaucoup votre réaction, monsieur
Love her ❤
She's got everything, she's actually a very sincere and good hearted human being. Also, great actress and comedian. 😊 she can be very funny 😄
Love and respect her soo much!🙏
One more thing....she aged like fine wine.
Great reaction emotional! Thanks so much friend. Lara super talented!❤
If you want to see a truly stunning performance in storytelling, then you need to see her performance of LOVE BY GRACE at the 2001 Canadian Juno awards. She is barefoot, sitting in a chair and singing directly to your heart.
Love your work.
Lara Fabian is an absolute singer's singer ! One of the greatest female artists in the world today ! Her stage presence and performances are truly remarkable and masterful in all aspects ! Lara and Celine came on the world stage at avout the same time but it eas Celine who received greater accolades and fame for sure but in reality it is Lara in my opinion who stands higher in her vocal abilities ! She is as good as it gets ! I'm so glad she resides in Canada and we get to see her a lot ! Thank you again for exploring your horizons and reacting to a supreme superstar ! Take care my friend and keep up the tremendous work ! It is so muxh appreciated ! If you get a chance in the near future i would suggest a listen to one of the greatest male vocalist ever ! His performance of the Beatles song "Help" with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra live in concert in 1980 will blow your socks off ! A masterful performance is in store for you ! Thanks and much kove from Canada ! 👍🇨🇦❤️
I agree with you 100 percent! She is/was the protomentor of Dimash, along with his parents and grandparents .. before Kenes; before Igor.
Love it quedate from lara in spanish ❤❤❤🇨🇼🇨🇼🇨🇼😘🇳🇱🇳🇱
Very happy that I was able to discover this immense performer. Indeed, if we look at all of her abilities on stage (the package), she is the best performer in the world of her generation and still today!
Muy de acuerdo contigo. Es la mejor cantante del mundo. Durante la pandemia primero descubrí a Lara. Luego al gran Dimash. Los dos mejores en cada género me deleitaron la vida en esos momentos y sigo disfrutando de sus talentos. Saludos desde Argentina
Excellent reaction😀lara is just unique - no other artist can sing and perform like this 😀
I knew Lara in the 90s, but truly found her over the past year. I'm a fan for life.
It's called emotions❤
Lara Fabian is the best of the best!
I'll second that , the best , wish I was at that venue watching her , those that were their are truly blessed to have seen that performance.
That's by command, not by accident, very true .... and btw you are so humble.
I know, right? Why can't we do that - because we CERTAINLY FEEL IT. I agree 100% she's set the bar higher than anyone else can reach.
You are right. DIMASH got inspiration from her. They also performed together in a trio with Aida Garlifullina. The song is “ Ti Amo Cosi “. Check it out. You will love it. Lara is one of the best female vocalist in the world. She always is amazing. Thank you for the great reaction. Hug from Vietnam 🇻🇳.
I have! That was the first time I ever heard her.
Love from Beirut
Yes. Simply the Greatest.
Every performance, a Master Class.
Love your Lara reactions!
Lara además de ser una excelente cantante es una gran actriz yo no me canso de oírla pues disfruto también verla ella se conecta de tal manera en la canción que además de cantar narra la historia la vive si miras el final te darás cuenta como le cuesta salirse de lo que acaba de cantar échale un vistazo de nuevo y verás ella es genial . Yo la conocí por Dimash otro genio musical y actoral . Son seres que para mi son puro arte ,gracias por lo qué haces me gusta mucho tus reacciones demuestras que sientes lo que oyes y eso para mi es importante de los 70000 yo soy una de ellas . Muchas bendiciones para ustedes y sigan haciendo estas cosas lindas y agradables al alma . Gracias ❤
If you actually watch her 2003 preforming this song in Paris she actually does collapse at the end and it's very dear to her because it's the thank you concert for her fans who saved her life in 2002 with her j'taime performance
In my opinion this is, if not the very best performance of any song, anywhere, then it's waaaaaaaaaaaay better than whatever finished third. She is easily the most provocative singer in the world.
We love it when such great talent is recognized, and you are very good at that.
Great reaction, Thankyou….don’t be sad….we are all in the same sandbox, but some have a bit of an edge, some have more, and very few can shift mountains.
Voilà une vrai chanteuse 😊
Linda reacción! Saludos desde Costa Rica! Increíble y hermosa obra maestra impresionante de Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo, la voz de cristal más bella y perfecta que existe! Reacciona por favor a "Caruso", Perderé l'amore, Quédate, You're not from here,To love again,I Guess i loved You,Traviatta! Gracias!
Congratulations on 70,000 subscribers! Amazing and well done!
Greetings from London 😀
Sou Fã da Lara e do Dimash. Para mim são os melhores vocalistas que existem ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My dear Boudy, what a singer!, great reaction!. I see how emotional you get. Please don’t be sad!, God gave you your own talent and I think you singing is fantastic! It’s your very own given talent. Not everyone can be my Divo eterno not everyone can be Laura Fabian. Congratulations on reaching 70k🎉 (Please see my messages). Thank you! Always love ❤❤
This vid is from the 1999 concert in Montreal..." From Lara,with love ",with another 6 hits that folks are reviewing!!
E N J O Y!!!!!!
. . 👍🧙♂️🐺🤙
It’s never too late to fully know and listen to Lara sir!! Better late than never 👍🏻
Hands down, you are absolutely correct, good man. Lara is by far the best female singer/performer in the world, not only by her technique, but her storytelling, her connection with the art, so amazing. Thanks for your reaction!
I had to watch our Arab man collapsing. I really think you would enjoy Mon Laferte! Saludos!
Added!
I have it many times before elsewhere. She is the greatest. She reigns supreme. She is the Queen of all singers. I have also mentioned the immense influence she has and has made on Dimash. Good as he is, he still has a lot to work on and to polish up.
Thank you for saying outright. Like you said that there are many great singers and artists out there but not one does it in the way Lara Fabian does. People need to know.
Thank you so much. I love your reaction.❤
Прекрасная реакция👏👏👏 спасибо 🔥🔥🔥
At about ( 7:36-37) look at where the mic is?? In her right hand,by her knee..we all know that mics have compressers in them..the power in this lil lady is such,that they had to have her drop the mic there,so as to not overdrive the audio...it sounds like it is right by her mouth..n..it's at her knee!!!??? What an amazing ,awesome,
Artist,indeed!!!!
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐺🧙♂️👍
Incredible voice and a wonderful story teller. I love you Lara.......😍
LARA FABIAN - Calling you
Elle est incroyable
Meravigliosamente stupenda!!!!!! Stupendi commenti grazie per spiegare dettagliatamente la bravura di questo fenomeno, grazie Arab Man many thanks
One of my fav performances of Lara. Thank you for your great reaction.
Such a great great and sincere and intelligent reaction ! Thank you !
#theywererighttoyet haha, nice reaction, love to hear more Lara reactions. love AJ momdays.
Next one to experience YOUR NOT FROM HERE LIVE …❤
My most favorite singer AFTER Dimash. She's just fabulous and it's no wonder that Dimash loves her so much. So incredibly beautiful, too.🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
🇨🇦 Lara lives in Montreal, Quebec but travels almost every year to Belgium to continue studying music at the best schools ! She is a Lyric Soprano !
If you pay close attention, you will hear her sing Every syllable of every word, in each sentence of each lyric, clearly and completely no matter which language she is singing in ! Below are two comments by Eric Sicard, in which he will tell you a little of Lara's history, and then a little bit of history to this song ! I recommend you react to 3 songs, her duet with Johnny Hallyday called Requiem pour un fou, Her first big hit called I will love again, and one called You're not from here !
Best get to know her Boudy....Celine Dion's management (and Sony record label) did not really want her competing with her in N. America (better singer IMHO) hence, she is so popular in Europe...she is Canadian/Belgium I believe, speaks and sings in multiple languages. She is undoubtedly one of the greatest female singers on this planet with most of her fanbase in Europe. She is in her 50's now and still performing. Any performance from "From Lara With Love" in 2000 are spectacular....well pretty much anything from Lara is spectacular. She is special.
Dimash learned from this beautiful Lady...amazing!She is like his Mentor and it shows.Please react to his latest song 'Omir',composed by him and lyrics written by him for the first time.He released it on his 29th Birthday as a gift and a Thank you to his fans...very beautiful!😊
A couple of things. Of course she was well known in Italy and France and when she went to Canada it was time for her to be discovered by the USA. Well, politics intervened and the powers who 'controlled' Celine Dion made sure that Lara would not get the exposure she was deserving of because the Dion camp knew the audiences would fall in love with Lara. And so, although she was greatly appreciated in Canada, not so for the USA. So back to Europe she went. Btw, this video you were watching was from 1999 or 2000.
Yes, you were right on in regards to Dimash. With all the training he received since he was a small child he was 'lacking' the skill to bring emotion into his music. When he heard Lara he marveled at how she was able to do it so beautifully. They crossed paths because they both became associated with the famous Ukrainian-Russian Composer Igor Krutoy and thus started a close friendship between the two of them which still exists today. So, yes, when you hear Dimash bringing a lot of emotion into his music, he mastered the art by watching and listening to Lara. For your information they have sang together and I have one for you to listen to. Igor was celebrating a Birthday Party at an Ice Skating Rink and believe it or not a full orchestra and stars galore were there to celebrate with him. There was one song in particular which 'stole the show'. It was Dimash, Lara and Aida Garifullina singing 'Ti Amo Cosi'. It might take you out of your chair! Lara almost had to cancel because of a recent illness but she didn't want to miss this celebration and she made it.
Last little story for you. You spoke about how it is impossible to be taught how Lara can sing like she does. Well, the story is (she told us) she was very little and in the car (back seat) and her father was taking her somewhere and suddenly out of nowhere Lara burst out in song. I don't mean La-La-La. It was so extraordinary her father had to pull over and listen to her sing. That was Lara's magical beginning.
I think if you go to Dimash and Ti Amo Cosi it will bring you to the video or go straight to Ti Amo Cosi Dimash and that will get you there, too.
2 additional notes on top of your excellent comment:
- Lara also wrote the lyrics of the song Your Love for Dimash
- here is the song she replicated as a baby in the car, it’s a very difficult one to mimic 😂
th-cam.com/video/nrArigiMnWY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you Eric for your wonderful follow up. It's no wonder papa had to pull over! 🙂 Btw, I wonder if Patricia Janeckova has ever sang this song? Listening to Patricia sing 'How The West Was Won' ('Once Upon A Time In The West') is one of my favorite video's. Eric, I'm sure you know her but if you don't give her a listen. Choose the video which is 8:54 long. What a treat. I know she would have a field day with the song Lara was singing in the back seat of the car. @@ericsicard910
I was waiting this reaction for so long. Great ... now waiting for u react Caruso from the same concert . She is the best
When I found her I was like Celine who. She is utterly fantastic! She just makes you feel emotions like Dimash.
Great reaction, I agree the greatest singer on earth. Wow!!
Merci pour la réaction, bien évidemment la chanson est très belle. Lara est exceptionnelle, incroyablement sensible ♥️
I very much enjoy your kind and personal reactions to Lara Fabian, Angelina Jordan, Ren, and others. Both the emotional and rational elements. So great to see your spontaneous interjections in Arabic (and thankx for the translations), so entertaining. The world is a better more unified place!
Lara is so good!!! ♥️ Dimash was a good student. 👍
je t'aime from paris 2001 next? you will love it
I agree - she is the best. ❤ I love how much you love her.
immensa divina meravigliosa -....ti fa sognare unica al mondo
Great reaction!! Would love to see you react to “Je t’aime” live in 2001.. As the story goes. She was going through a lot in her life and her fans knew.. they set it up with her piano player in other parts of her musical team. An just before she started to sing, they sang for her. You can hear someone yell “chante pas Lara” which is don’t sing Lara.. If you can find the one with the subtitles.. it’s so incredibly moving..
Love your reaction! Cheers from 🇨🇦😊
This is one of my favorite performances of Lara. This is with subtitles. th-cam.com/video/qO3b-MyyTZg/w-d-xo.html
Great reaction!!!!!
I agree with you Arab man
Lara Fabian is the greatest female vocalist ❤
Related to your comment near the end about working to develop a talent like her’s - one of the things I love about Lara is that she still works constantly with her vocal coach. Yes she is gifted by God, but she has taken that gift and worked hard to maintain it.
I love this song by Lara so so much and I love that her and Dimash sang together ❤❤❤
Love your reaction reviews bro. I totally agree with your take on this goddess Laura Fabian. She is the most amazing performer and golden standard that all artist should look to. Keep it up my friend! 🙂
Yes. The Greatest. No-one does love and loss like Lara. She fully inhabits the story and delivers with incredible nuance, passion and micro-intentionality of every note and breath between. Her management of dynamics is extra-ordinary. Every song a Master Class. You've heard that Dimash studied her closely, and yes, you can see her influences in his work. She sings in many languages and is well known all over Europe, including performing for years with Igor Krutoy.
Dimash was thrilled to finally be able to sing with Lara ( and the wonderful emerging Great Soprano; Aida Garifullina } in their stunning performance of TI AMO COSI. You MUST see this one!
There are so many wonderful Lara performances, but there are 2 more that are UNMISSABLE! No-one, in my humble opinion, has EVER done a better 'CARUSO',{ # choose the version: "From Lara With Love Concert 2000 } and the 2nd is her 2001 Paris Concert, the entire concert is wonderful, but the song Je Taime { get the tissues out!} is particularly memorable. You'll see why! ENJOY. 😃
I agree with you Lara is a stelar performer. My favorite one.
Agreed. No one else can touch her!
Tears!😢 I know! Greatness!!!😮
Absolutely magnificent ❤❤❤
Yo soy española del Norte y solo puedo decir que amo a los árabes y que eres un sabio
i just feel sorry for her, and want to hug her...
an amazing perfomance
Wow, i said the same thing to myself about Dimash his connection to her❤❤❤❤she is soooo amazing💐💐💐
She also sang in english and italian, although her songs in those languages didn't have nearly the same success they did as the ones in french. But yeah really her vocal abilities are off the damn charts, and since the late 90s she's indeed had a HUGE success in the french speaking countries. Even if a bunch of songs she sang were covers (like this one, btw), she brought to broader audiences versions that really enhanced the original, without anyone having the feeling she stole anything ^^
She also stayed pretty much outside most of the celebrity drama and stuff, which is a refreshing touch.
Regarding the acapella bit and keeping time: she doesn’t have to keep time there cause in that moment she is the conductor of the band. The head shake is her signal for the band to join in. She can take as long as she wants and they will simply wait for her and her head shake or any other signal they agreed upon.
