For any Dan newbies- Dan does all his own backing vocals - unless he puts it in the credits ! Go down the rabbit hole and fall in love with every nuance of a glorious voice! Every high, low, grit, growl and scream! 😊
Your analysis was so fascinating! You should look at Dan’s cover of Bring Me To Life by Evanescence! He has trained for years to incorporate things into his voice! Thanks again ❤
Metal music is so diverse that it can't be explained in just a few sentences. It's not just a style of music; it encompasses the metal attitude that is very important for metalheads and characterized by a sense of non--conformism, individualism, and intensity,, rejecting mainstream norms and celebrating alternative forms of expression. To say it very short. The metal style by Dan Vasc that we're listening to here is probably best described as melodic power metal. His fantastic, classically and modernly trained voice and his wide vocal range never fail to impress. But what stands out especially is his ability to make the songs he covers interesting, to add surprises, and to make them sound so good that I'm often left speechless at first. Each cover by him sounds different. I suggest to you to listen to the songs on Dan's TH-cam starting page, for instance "My Heart Will Go On" Celine Dion cover, "Heaven Is A Place On Earth", or "Adeste Fidelis - METAL cover". If you want to experience something familiar in a new way, listen to his "Nessun Dorma".I'm looking forward to your next reaction to one of his songs. Anyway, everything you said about this song was just exciting, and there were some new pieces of information for me, for which I'm very grateful to you.
Yes please do more Dan Vasc! Dan is a metalhead at heart, but ... thats not all that he does! He has a wonderful selection of stage/show tunes that are outstanding! See his renditions of * Music of the night * Gethsemane My personal favorites by Dan ... this list goes from the softer folky ballads to clean and rousing, to rock, and lastly metal * Son of pain * Sleeping Sun * A tale that wasn't right * Dawn of a new world * Tears of the Dragon * Faithfully * Fairy tale * Bring me to life * Blind and frozen * My heart will go on. I very much enjoyed your R/A of Dan and im hoping you will jump in and explore more from his catalog! ❤
Great reaction. Really enjoyed your analysis. "How does someone sing like that and not obliterate their vocal chords?" Through years of vocal training - as Dan has done. He's had extensive vocal training both in contemporary music and classical music. High notes? He can go higher! As you can probably tell, I'm a big fan of Dan Vasc. Head on down this rabbit hole. You won't be disappointed! He can (and does) sing everything from opera (Nessun Dorma) to Disney covers to heavy metal.
O holy night my heart will go on Neesun Dorma bring me to life by Evernesance he has over 245 covers you don’t need anyone else Dan will satisfy every style you like he is the best of the best Amazing Grace has over 10 million views it went viral and still is he also does the Phantom of the opera he sings Night wish you don’t need Night wish you will grow your channel if you stick to Dan he has a very loyal fan base we are Vasc Nation he is almost to a million Subscribers he is over 974 thousand welcome to Vasc Nation he has turned utube upside down he also does Disney covers like I’ll make a man out of you everything is incredible thanks for you reaction
Dan has had extensive vocal training and he himself was a vocal coach. He said he always warms up his voice the day before recording and then doesn’t speak at all for the next 24 hrs. Dan knows exactly how to protect his voice.
I'm thrilled to hear this. I can tell by just listening to him that he must be protecting his voice. I have not heard it fail him. If he had not, if he had not, he would have lost it by now. The roller-coaster ride he takes me on warns me every time of the people who have damaged their voices. I think I read that his mother was his vocal coach. If that is true, she taught him well.
Dan has done several covers by some of these SYMPHONIC METAL bands: Nightwish - Finland, Rhapsody of Fire - Italy, Angra - Brazil. These were some of Dan's early influences. Last year a dream come true for Dan when Fabio Lione from Rhapsody of Fire and Angra , while on tour, stopped into Dan's garage studio to record with Dan's band Fearless. This is A MUST SEE. He 's done MANY covers from those bands. (Definition: "Symphonic metal is a cross-generic style designation for the symphonic subsets of heavy metal music subgenres. It is used to denote any metal band that makes use of symphonic or orchestral elements.") Both Dan and his brother Davi are talented composers.
Yes, please react to more Dan Vasc. I cannot put a finger on why he is so captivating, but believe there is more than simple simple charisma. I think he must be very intentional in his choices. It is so interesting when you explain what is going on musically.
Thank you for your reaction to this song. I heard Dan mention in an interview that in hindsight he wouldn’t have sung it. He wants to make music that empowers people and he is looking more into the lyrics now. That being said, I think one of the main captivating qualities of Dan is that he is authentic. And of course he has a great voice, developed over the years through hard work
Well, heavy metal is a world in of itself, numerous sub-genres, thousands of bands all over the world, most following in traditional paths, some breaking new ground, albums popping out every day. There's four of Dan's covers that will help get you situated with the genre, where he stays close to the original: Number of the Beast, Iron Maiden are the classic of classics, Dawn of Victory, a cover of Rhapsody in a duet with the original singer, Fabio Lione, Battle Hymn, a Manowar cover, Dan's favorite band and singer and another classic and Fairy Tale, a Shaman cover, gorgeous song and a reaction channel favorite since the singer and composer, Brazil's own André Matos, died in 2019. He was another major influence on Dan, being the best singer in his country. All those are very highly recommended in the original, of course. 🤘🤘 We metal heads are a passionate lot and always welcome newbies.
71 yr old Grandma of 2 here❤️⚘️ Loved your reaction I've subscribed . Dan in 6 words is : Incredibly , Epic , Powerful , Animated and Theatrical Actor in his singing. HE'S MAGNIFICENT ! It's a musically Multi Genre rabbit hole you really don't want to miss. He is so multi talented You Would be great at REACTIONS ! FROM Phantom of the Opera, to Bocelli , to Nessum Dorma, Elvis Love Me Tender, Elvis,s American Trilogy A tribute to his Father he sang 5 days after his passing. You must watch Dan's recordings all the way to after the end . Sometimes he speaks or adds his thoughts. Also Disney movie classics I'll make a man out of you, Beauty and the Beast , many many more. An entire series from the 70's ,80's and 90's , Journey , ToTo , Iron Maiden and sooo many more. Over 250 covers He is an amazingly gifted and Blessed man. Started his channel at 18 singing and is 34 and has his singing history and growth there for all to see and hear. He's humble and shares suicide and depression prevention within his messages. He has a post of his singing with a montage of clips/ photos to to Michael Boltons song "Go the Distance" a celebration of his 50 thousand subscribers. Alongside with "A Millon Dreams" his goal for his channel for which he is almost there SOON ! Jump in I look forward to your reactions ! ❤️⚘️PS A must! must! See is his "Amazing Grace"
Amazing Grace ! Gethsemane ( rock opera) I’ll Make a Man Out of You ( Disney) Burn Butcher Burn ( the Witcher ) Bring Me to Life ( Evanescence) Nessun Dorma ( opera) and his new metal version of My Heart Will Go On ( Celine Dion) - all are my daily Dan addictions !!!
@@betsyvondracek4009 Yes- he’s a very versatile vocalist ! I found him with Amazing Grace and love every nuance of his voice. Sometimes he totally makes a song his own, sometimes more true to the original. He usually does all his own backing vocals and uses different techniques and power to emphasize different parts of songs. His voice is truly an addiction!
Hello Sir Hairless! This is my first time hearing a reaction of yours, and I thought it was excellent! If you're a fan of great vocalism, Dan's your man. He has extensive training in both classical and contemporary, "metal" singing techniques (which, mind-boggling to me, do not involve the vocal cords!). He can (truly!) sing just about anything, in any range and in any style. I'm a voice junkie from way back, with decades of vocal crushes on opera tenors, so I really appreciate the beauty of his voice, coupled with great expressiveness and with power and charisma to burn. He sings anything that appeals to him, from folk to ballads, to Disney cartoons, to Broadway, to 80s covers, to opera, but his real love is hard rock and metal. I've never been much of a metal fan, but I've become a Dan fan. For your next listen I would recommend either his newest "metalized" version of an ordinary song, the lovely but weepy song by Celine Dion, My Heart Will Go On, which he turns on its head, or Burn Butcher Burn from the Witcher show, which really shows off both his singing and acting chops and has an incredible metal scream - musical and in tune. Thanks for your expert reaction - it's such a pleasure to learn from someone who knows what he's talking about. Thank you so much! Subbed, looking forward to more Dan. P.S You might want to check out a fellow reactor, the Charismatic Voice, who did a detailed analysis of his Amazing Grace. I learned a lot about the technique from her.
Dans Amazing Grace was released last April for Easter. It has 11mil views and was fourth on Amazons top five best selling list. Please check out his newest release My Heart Will Go On, a Celine cover, it’s Epic and is nothing like Celine’s version, it’s amazing! Many thanks!
This was a terrific reaction and analysis. Very detailed and insightful. Thank you. This song is typical of Dan's "metalized" versions of pop songs. Most metal heads wouldn't consider it true metal, but would probably think it an improvement on the original. There are a number of sub-genre of metal music. Dan most often prefers symphonic and power metal, which tend to use more instruments than just guitars and drums. Dan took voice lessons for about a decade (he also taught voice) and is well trained in how to sing like he does without destroying his voice. He has said that he likes to spend a day before recording just warming up, and the day after he tries to avoid speaking at all. He once said that he hates performing live because afterwards "everyone wants to talk to you."
I really enjoyed your detailed analysis of this performance by Dan Vasc. He has become my favorite artist and his catalog is full of amazing songs. He has had extensive training and knows how to protect his voice. He has said that he doesn't speak until the next day after recording songs that require the metal screams that he is so great at. A fun song for you to hear him sing is the Disney Mulan's I'll Make a Man Out of You. He combines just great singing with some amazingly high screams that are so melodic. His has a flair for performing that I think you will enjoy also. I am a new subscriber and I will most assuredly be back for for more. Thanks so much.
Dan Vascs "Amazing Grace" got very viral. That might be a good song to react to. He is a fantastic singer who was trained classicaly too. And thank you for your fantastic work and always very interesting reactions. I'm not a metal listener either, but through the channel of the "charismatic voice " (an opera singer who does very interesting reactions too), I heard some like "Nightwish". Very impressive.
He trained with a very famous Brazilian singer, but I cannot for the life of me remember his name. The Vasc Nation will show up for sure. Maybe one of you can fill us in?
I watch only her and SH. She plays everything - and pretty much from the vocal side of things. She must be doing something right, she has over a million subs. You NEVER know what gender of music she will be reacting to. That's where I saw DanVasc sing Amazing Grace. However I like hearing SH explain how they sing and why. I've learned a lot from him .🎼🌟
Adding my request for more Dan Vasc. Angels We Have Heard on High, Toss A Coin, I’ll Make a Man Out of You, and Amazing Grace are some good examples of Dan’s singing (and arranging) to which you should react. This performance is a “B” side in comparison to those.
❤ you are in for such a treat... Dan is fabulous!!!! He can sing anything... and makes it better❤ Found him about 8 yrs ago... and have really enjoyed watching him grow, mature, and become the best around... ❤ I hope you will come on down the Vasc rabbit hole with us... we are almost a million strong... and I promise you it will be a thrilling trip... Loved your reaction... thank you for your breakdown... very interesting 😁
Dan Vasc is the most versatile singer I've heard. He really is phenominal! At the very end of this video, Dan lets go with a magnificent scream but you cut it short😉 This wasn't heavy metal, Dan just took it from a pop song and metalized it. All backing voices you hear, are by Dan. His "Gethsemane" from Jesus Christ Superstar is outstanding, as is "Music of the Night" from Phantom of the Opera. Would love to hear more reactions from you, thankyou 😃
So happy to see one of my very favorite reactors reacting to Dan Vasc. Amazing Grace was my gateway drug to Dan and I’ve been hooked ever since 😊. I was never really a metal fan but have come to really appreciate it the way Dan sings it. He sings with such passion, it takes my breath away.
Great reaction! Love your open mind to new music. I don’t consider myself a metal fan but there some awesome metal singers that I have heard and Dan Vasc is one of them. I love how he sings every genre with all of his heart and talent- Disney, Christmas, metal, rock, everything!
Dan has a fantastic range of both voice and style. To hear his softer side, you might have a listen to his version of “Loch Lomond” or “The Music Of The Night.” He shows off some operatic skills in “Nessum Dorma.” His rendition of Amazing Grace went viral last year. If you like musical theater, Dan’s performance of “Gethsemane” from Jesus Christ Superstar, is phenomenal. Metal singers train a lot and are very careful of their vocal folds. David Draiman and James Hetfield are good examples of that. I really hope you will react to more of Dan’s music, and, while you’re there, subscribe-He’s almost to his one million subscribers goal!
🎼🖤🎸🎼🖤🎸 .. surprise - surprise !! Metal ? .. Sir Hairless & Metal ? 😵💫 .... well , not only is Dan a surprising artist , your reaction video is also filled with surprises. I did not expect an appearance of Supertramp , or Avi Kaplan (( both of whom I am a huge fan )) to compare with Dan. He really is that good, and showcases his range in everything I have watched of him. Thanks for a Thursday surprise Sir Hairless !! 🎸🖤🎼🎸🖤🎼
Let me warn you, if you go down the Dan Vasc rabbit hole you are in for quite a ride. I have not found a genre or style of music that he has not absolutely mastered. From heavy metal to Opera, Broadway and Disney tunes. He is classically trained but his heart resides in Power music. He is really quite amazing.
Dan's cover of the Hallelujah Chorus where he recorded himself in 24 parts amazed me. His cover of Bring me to Life was a fantastic viewing of the many vocal tools he can access. Great reaction/analysis as always. Thank you for sharing your time and thoughts. Hope to hear more Dan. Peace✌
Thanks for your reaction. Please check out Dan's Amazing Grace (it's a must 😉), and Nessun Dorma is also phenomenal. My Heart Will Go On will totally surprise you, I promise. 😄
The 'backing vocal chanting' you mentioned in the chorus are also in Adele's original - they're "You're gonna wish you / never had met me / tears are gonna fall / rolling in the deep."
This is my first time hearing you do an analysis. I love how thorough you are. You definitely need to jump into the Dan Vasc rabbit hole. He sings everything from classic Italian opera to true heavy metal like AC/DC and Metallica… And nearly everything in between including an Elvis compilation. He is amazing and his music arrangements are incredible.
Thank you for your great analysis of this cover by Dan. It was very insightful and informative. Dan's vocal abilities and presence are unique and captivating.
This is not a metal version. He does metal, his band Fearless is a metal band. He is classically trained, he sing opera, metal, Elvis, he is an amazing artist. He sings hymns. I listen to his music daily.
I don't listen to metal but about 4years ago I heard Dan's "Amazing Grace" and listened to it about 100 times. That is a must. And "My heart will go on" is not a water funeral song anymore; that is if you listen to Dan Vascanizing it😂. Appreciate your video's. TX. Greetings from South Africa
WOW SH! This was certainly different! Great performance and super reaction! Thank you for presenting in your own spectacular way this (new to me) talent! From what I hear Amazing Grace should be next!!??!! 🎙🎸
I am greatly entertained by Dan Vasc and I loved your in depth interpretation of this song. I personally have very little musical background or understanding. But I do love to learn. Please do more Vasc, and I will listen.
I love Dan Vasc and was one of your followers urging you to listen to him. I don't think this song is the best showcase of his beautiful voice. I'll Make a Man Out of You, Amazing Grace, Angels We Have Heard on High, his covers of The Witcher songs show his versatility and range much better. His cover of The Phantom songs are amazing as well. he also sings some opera
Big respect to Dan Vasc for his wonderful arrangements of the individual songs ♥️. Dan covered Pokerface by Lady Gaga and it is fantastic... like everything else he does. 🤘Dan's interpretations of Gethsemane Jesus Christ Superstar and Nesum Dorma are outstanding. The whole Witcher series as well as his Disney covers are out of this world. Manowar, Helloween, the selection of songs is huge. He is a really great artist. He puts his own stamp on every song. He has put together an album with his band "Fearless" - Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom - . He does all the filming, editing and lighting himself. Thanks for sharing, I'll be back 👍
It's exciting to see you having a listen to genres and artists new to you: your background gives you all the "explorer tools" to delve into arrangements, melody, instruments, stylistic choices and all. Your analyses bring me much intellectual and emotional satisfaction... I always look forward to your latest post. Cheers!
I am Not a metal person, but I have heard a couple of Dan’s song. I love his Amazing Grace as well. I would love to see what you think of DISTURBED, “The Sound of Silence” I was surprised of my liking this interpretation, but it was pretty wonderful! Of course I love Simon and Garfunkel, but I think this rendition was a very complimentary version. Love Change on The Rise. Awesome song! Will have to watch your reaction! I appreciate you wanting to protect your chords, and I wonder how much Dan protects his instrument, because I respect what he can do with his voice. The guitarist was wonderful to watch as well. Maybe you could check out, his “Amazing Grace?” Thanks so much, my friend. ❤🇺🇸
I first seen your channel while looking for dimash reaction/analysis, the amount of things you notice in 1 play thru is insane, bravo. Dan is basically a heavy metal dimash IMO he has a crazy range and a lot of different "colors" he can sing with. He's got a multitude of different genres that pretty well always have a rock or metal undertone. Please check out more of Dan, his cover of "battle hymn" by Manowar is my personal favorite
I love Dan Vasc and am very happy that you reacted to him. I highly recommend that you react to his version of "Amazing Grace." For some reason, that song makes me think that he is classically trained. It's an awesome performance, and I hope you'll react to it. Thanks for another fabulous reaction!!! ✌️❤️
I never dreamed you hadn't found Dan before now! Wow! He can do it all. From heavy metal to theater to gospel to classical to opera! And often he mixes them all with metal! Try Amazing Grace. Or Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" in which he sings ALL the parts from lowest bass to highest soprano! He's absolutely awesome! And then there's breath control...! 💖
I was going to mention Dan to you. I stumbled into him through his brother Davi and the Monster Hunter community. Davi does what you do for video game music and that's how I found you. The algorithm picked up on music analysis. He plays with Dan, although he's not the singer in the family. They are like the Sound of Music in Brazil. They're pretty awesome and very cool guys. He reminds me mostly of Dio or maybe Judas Priest but lighter. He works with a lot of youtube artists so you're going to get the crossover rabbit hole here too.
loved your reaction. subbed immediately. i only sub to those who teach me something about that i am hearing; as it is all a mystery to my how such beauty can be made. if you ask me what is my favorite dan song i would have to ask you which genre, as he is so at home in so many. i'd have to pick a song in each genre. i think you will enjoy getting to know the vocal acrobatics dan performs. anything you react to of his will be good.
If you watch "The Charismatic Voice" review of Dan Vasc's "Amazing Grace"...she explains how he protects his voice chords, well trained demonstration of his vocal/air control.
I'm 72 and never imagined I'd listen to metal but since listening to Dan's Amazing Grace a week ago I've totally binged on his music. He has an amazing voice and amazing presentation.
Hello Sir Que legal vc reagindo/analisando e se empolgando com mais um artista brasileiro. Também não faz meu gênero musical mas reconheço um artista. E, novamente, sua reação é de "cair o queixo", como dizemos aqui no Brasil. Você é sensacional. Obrigada por mais esse grande vídeo análise. Beijos do Brasil 😘❤️🇧🇷
I'm grateful for your analysis. I'm one of the ten people on Earth Who's never heard this song before. But I am in awe at the things you hear and see... Thank you for letting the rest of us in on it❤
Sir Hairless, you really should go all out and start listening to all his songs. He is absolutely amazingly talented. No song choice will disappoint. It should mean something if an 86 or old lady asks for his music
Thank you for reacting to Dan’s powerful, explosive blast of musical awesomeness! You had so many great comments and observations! I loved how you broke things down and gave very detailed musical insights. This song is radically EPIC and I feel it is like a vocal and musical buffet- there is so much that Dan packed into this song. 🔥🔥👏🏼❤️🇧🇷💛 Thank you so very much! Blessings, brother! 🤗👏🏼
You got a new sub from this video. I loved watching your eyes and expression as you took in Dan’s cover. You noticed everything. I’m looking forward to many more reactions from you to Dan’s music. It won’t take long for you to see that Dan is both insanely talented and insanely skilled. He is a chameleon and can make any genre his own.
Very nice! I enjoyed your expertise, comparisons and explanations. If you want an example of heavy metal, try his Metallica cover of Sad But True. A sample of Power Metal would be his band Fearless, A Tale Without End and a sample of Symphonic Metal would be any of his Nightwish covers but I like Last Ride of the Day or Ever Dream. Happy explorations! 🤘
From what I've noticed, it depends upon the musician as to what instruments are shown being played. Some will show all of the instruments, some will pick one and record the others separately (as Biggy did here), so the bass line was most likely recorded separately while the video focused on him with the guitar. Other guitarists that have featured with Dan (Victor and Garrett) will frequently show multiple guitars in side-by-side video shots as well as possible keyboards. I think that is done to show that it was done by the musician, but not all on the same instrument.
Amazing Grace....it's AMAZING Your reviews are very interesting 👍 Id love to see your review of him singing his version of Amazing Grace 👏 Thank you for your great review 😊
Thank you for reacting to Dan. I just stumbled across him this year and have enjoyed his covers. I’m not a metal fan but he is interesting. I also wonder if his style of singing would be harmful to his vocal cords in the long run.
I love your reactions! I have never listened to metal. Since hearing Dan"s Amazing Grace I am hooked. His Music of the night is exceptional and I think you will enjoy it. Thanks again. Very interesting.
Check out this reaction next! th-cam.com/video/1BE0YlYtnww/w-d-xo.html

For any Dan newbies- Dan does all his own backing vocals - unless he puts it in the credits ! Go down the rabbit hole and fall in love with every nuance of a glorious voice! Every high, low, grit, growl and scream! 😊
Not a metal person but I love Dan Vasc - who knew?
I’m 81 and no one is more surprised than I at my newfound love of his music.
Your analysis was so fascinating! You should look at Dan’s cover of Bring Me To Life by Evanescence! He has trained for years to incorporate things into his voice! Thanks again ❤
Bring Me to Life is one of my favorites! Can't get enough of it! I hope he reacts to it.
Dan sings opera as well. I'd like to hear a reaction to Music of the Night as well as Nessun Dorma.
Dan Vasc is classically trained and can sing anything from opera to heavy metal. No matter what choose from his 200 plus videos you won't be wrong.
Metal music is so diverse that it can't be explained in just a few sentences. It's not just a style of music; it encompasses the metal attitude that is very important for metalheads and characterized by a sense of non--conformism, individualism, and intensity,, rejecting mainstream norms and celebrating alternative forms of expression. To say it very short.
The metal style by Dan Vasc that we're listening to here is probably best described as melodic power metal. His fantastic, classically and modernly trained voice and his wide vocal range never fail to impress. But what stands out especially is his ability to make the songs he covers interesting, to add surprises, and to make them sound so good that I'm often left speechless at first. Each cover by him sounds different. I suggest to you to listen to the songs on Dan's TH-cam starting page, for instance "My Heart Will Go On" Celine Dion cover, "Heaven Is A Place On Earth", or "Adeste Fidelis - METAL cover".
If you want to experience something familiar in a new way, listen to his "Nessun Dorma".I'm looking forward to your next reaction to one of his songs. Anyway, everything you said about this song was just exciting, and there were some new pieces of information for me, for which I'm very grateful to you.
❤🤘 I concur! 🤘
Yes please do more Dan Vasc! Dan is a metalhead at heart, but ... thats not all that he does! He has a wonderful selection of stage/show tunes that are outstanding! See his renditions of
* Music of the night
* Gethsemane
My personal favorites by Dan ... this list goes from the softer folky ballads to clean and rousing, to rock, and lastly metal
* Son of pain
* Sleeping Sun
* A tale that wasn't right
* Dawn of a new world
* Tears of the Dragon
* Faithfully
* Fairy tale
* Bring me to life
* Blind and frozen
* My heart will go on.
I very much enjoyed your R/A of Dan and im hoping you will jump in and explore more from his catalog! ❤
Great reaction. Really enjoyed your analysis. "How does someone sing like that and not obliterate their vocal chords?" Through years of vocal training - as Dan has done.

Would love to hear your reaction to Dan’s surprising rendition of Amazing Grace and Gethsemane as well as a duet version of Kiss from a Rose.
Dan's version of amazing grace is absolutely perfect and mind blowing
Both Amazing Grace and Gethsemane gave me goosebumps and brought me to tears.
Yes, please react to more Dan Vasc. I cannot put a finger on why he is so captivating, but believe there is more than simple simple charisma. I think he must be very intentional in his choices. It is so interesting when you explain what is going on musically.

Well, heavy metal is a world in of itself, numerous sub-genres, thousands of bands all over the world, most following in traditional paths, some breaking new ground, albums popping out every day.
There's four of Dan's covers that will help get you situated with the genre, where he stays close to the original: Number of the Beast, Iron Maiden are the classic of classics, Dawn of Victory, a cover of Rhapsody in a duet with the original singer, Fabio Lione, Battle Hymn, a Manowar cover, Dan's favorite band and singer and another classic and Fairy Tale, a Shaman cover, gorgeous song and a reaction channel favorite since the singer and composer, Brazil's own André Matos, died in 2019. He was another major influence on Dan, being the best singer in his country. All those are very highly recommended in the original, of course. 🤘🤘
We metal heads are a passionate lot and always welcome newbies.
Andre Matos. That's him. I couldn't remember his name. Thank you. I knew you guys would know.

❤️⚘️PS
A must! must!
See is his "Amazing Grace"
Agree 💯 x 💯 😊🎉🎉🎉
Same age as you. Same love for Dan😊
Yes, all that😊
Yes!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing Grace ! Gethsemane ( rock opera) I’ll Make a Man Out of You ( Disney) Burn Butcher Burn ( the Witcher ) Bring Me to Life ( Evanescence) Nessun Dorma ( opera) and his new metal version of My Heart Will Go On ( Celine Dion) - all are my daily Dan addictions !!!
And Son of pain!!
Wow he is versatile! I'll have to check out these other songs. thank you 👍
@@betsyvondracek4009 Yes- he’s a very versatile vocalist ! I found him with Amazing Grace and love every nuance of his voice. Sometimes he totally makes a song his own, sometimes more true to the original. He usually does all his own backing vocals and uses different techniques and power to emphasize different parts of songs. His voice is truly an addiction!
Yes, please! To all of the above!
Don’t forget that Dan sings folk songs too, Scarborough Fair is one
Hello Sir Hairless! This is my first time hearing a reaction of yours, and I thought it was excellent! If you're a fan of great vocalism, Dan's your man. He has extensive training in both classical and contemporary, "metal" singing techniques (which, mind-boggling to me, do not involve the vocal cords!). He can (truly!) sing just about anything, in any range and in any style. I'm a voice junkie from way back, with decades of vocal crushes on opera tenors, so I really appreciate the beauty of his voice, coupled with great expressiveness and with power and charisma to burn. He sings anything that appeals to him, from folk to ballads, to Disney cartoons, to Broadway, to 80s covers, to opera, but his real love is hard rock and metal. I've never been much of a metal fan, but I've become a Dan fan. For your next listen I would recommend either his newest "metalized" version of an ordinary song, the lovely but weepy song by Celine Dion, My Heart Will Go On, which he turns on its head, or Burn Butcher Burn from the Witcher show, which really shows off both his singing and acting chops and has an incredible metal scream - musical and in tune. Thanks for your expert reaction - it's such a pleasure to learn from someone who knows what he's talking about. Thank you so much! Subbed, looking forward to more Dan. P.S You might want to check out a fellow reactor, the Charismatic Voice, who did a detailed analysis of his Amazing Grace. I learned a lot about the technique from her.

Dans Amazing Grace was released last April for Easter. It has 11mil views and was fourth on Amazons top five best selling list. Please check out his newest release My Heart Will Go On, a Celine cover, it’s Epic and is nothing like Celine’s version, it’s amazing! Many thanks!
I have no words how awesome this was!! That's even better than the original ! The range of Dan´s voice is incredible! Thank you for your reaction !
Dan Vasc voice is like liquid gold, which makes me warm and happy 😊
This was a terrific reaction and analysis. Very detailed and insightful. Thank you. This song is typical of Dan's "metalized" versions of pop songs. Most metal heads wouldn't consider it true metal, but would probably think it an improvement on the original. There are a number of sub-genre of metal music. Dan most often prefers symphonic and power metal, which tend to use more instruments than just guitars and drums. Dan took voice lessons for about a decade (he also taught voice) and is well trained in how to sing like he does without destroying his voice. He has said that he likes to spend a day before recording just warming up, and the day after he tries to avoid speaking at all. He once said that he hates performing live because afterwards "everyone wants to talk to you."
I really enjoyed your detailed analysis of this performance by Dan Vasc. He has become my favorite artist and his catalog is full of amazing songs. He has had extensive training and knows how to protect his voice. He has said that he doesn't speak until the next day after recording songs that require the metal screams that he is so great at. A fun song for you to hear him sing is the Disney Mulan's I'll Make a Man Out of You. He combines just great singing with some amazingly high screams that are so melodic. His has a flair for performing that I think you will enjoy also. I am a new subscriber and I will most assuredly be back for for more. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much, Elaine, and for the recommendation too 🙏🏽 I have added it to my list for a future Dan reaction
Dan Vascs "Amazing Grace" got very viral. That might be a good song to react to. He is a fantastic singer who was trained classicaly too. And thank you for your fantastic work and always very interesting reactions. I'm not a metal listener either, but through the channel of the "charismatic voice " (an opera singer who does very interesting reactions too), I heard some like "Nightwish". Very impressive.
He trained with a very famous Brazilian singer, but I cannot for the life of me remember his name. The Vasc Nation will show up for sure. Maybe one of you can fill us in?
I watch only her and SH. She plays everything - and pretty much from the vocal side of things. She must be doing something right, she has over a million subs. You NEVER know what gender of music she will be reacting to. That's where I saw DanVasc sing Amazing Grace. However I like hearing SH explain how they sing and why. I've learned a lot from him .🎼🌟
Adding my request for more Dan Vasc. Angels We Have Heard on High, Toss A Coin, I’ll Make a Man Out of You, and Amazing Grace are some good examples of Dan’s singing (and arranging) to which you should react. This performance is a “B” side in comparison to those.
❤ you are in for such a treat... Dan is fabulous!!!! He can sing anything... and makes it better❤
Found him about 8 yrs ago... and have really enjoyed watching him grow, mature, and become the best around... ❤
I hope you will come on down the Vasc rabbit hole with us... we are almost a million strong... and I promise you it will be a thrilling trip...
Loved your reaction... thank you for your breakdown... very interesting 😁
Dan Vasc is the most versatile singer I've heard. He really is phenominal! At the very end of this video, Dan lets go with a magnificent scream but you cut it short😉 This wasn't heavy metal, Dan just took it from a pop song and metalized it. All backing voices you hear, are by Dan. His "Gethsemane" from Jesus Christ Superstar is outstanding, as is "Music of the Night" from Phantom of the Opera. Would love to hear more reactions from you, thankyou 😃
Also, Dan’s performance of Nessun Dorma is outstanding
@@angel44144 Yes!!😃
Enjoyed your in deoth analysis. And yes- pls do more Dan Vasc
So happy to see one of my very favorite reactors reacting to Dan Vasc. Amazing Grace was my gateway drug to Dan and I’ve been hooked ever since 😊. I was never really a metal fan but have come to really appreciate it the way Dan sings it. He sings with such passion, it takes my breath away.
I agree- found Dan with his Amazing Grace and haven’t looked back- I was never into metal , but I love Dan’s metal!
The same for me!
Sane 😊
Oh yes Amazing Grace is the gateway drug or maybe Sound of Silence. 76 years old and loving Dan.
Anything by Dan is epic. He’s literally a Swiss Army knife of singing and does many many styles
Lol. I like that expression.
Great reaction! Love your open mind to new music. I don’t consider myself a metal fan but there some awesome metal singers that I have heard and Dan Vasc is one of them. I love how he sings every genre with all of his heart and talent- Disney, Christmas, metal, rock, everything!
Dan has a fantastic range of both voice and style. To hear his softer side, you might have a listen to his version of “Loch Lomond” or “The Music Of The Night.” He shows off some operatic skills in “Nessum Dorma.” His rendition of Amazing Grace went viral last year. If you like musical theater, Dan’s performance of “Gethsemane” from Jesus Christ Superstar, is phenomenal. Metal singers train a lot and are very careful of their vocal folds. David Draiman and James Hetfield are good examples of that. I really hope you will react to more of Dan’s music, and, while you’re there, subscribe-He’s almost to his one million subscribers goal!
Love this song, and I adore Dan. He's so versatile! Thank you, Sir. Looking forward to hearing more of your reactions to Dan's extensive catalog.
🎼🖤🎸🎼🖤🎸 .. surprise - surprise !! Metal ? .. Sir Hairless & Metal ? 😵💫 .... well , not only is Dan a surprising artist , your reaction video is also filled with surprises. I did not expect an appearance of Supertramp , or Avi Kaplan (( both of whom I am a huge fan )) to compare with Dan. He really is that good, and showcases his range in everything I have watched of him. Thanks for a Thursday surprise Sir Hairless !! 🎸🖤🎼🎸🖤🎼
🎸
Let me warn you, if you go down the Dan Vasc rabbit hole you are in for quite a ride.
I have not found a genre or style of music that he has not absolutely mastered. From heavy metal to Opera, Broadway and Disney tunes.
He is classically trained but his heart resides in Power music.
He is really quite amazing.
Thank you for your reaction. I found it very interesting and informative.
Dan's cover of the Hallelujah Chorus where he recorded himself in 24 parts amazed me. His cover of Bring me to Life was a fantastic viewing of the many vocal tools he can access. Great reaction/analysis as always. Thank you for sharing your time and thoughts. Hope to hear more Dan. Peace✌
Thanks for your reaction.
Please check out Dan's Amazing Grace (it's a must 😉), and Nessun Dorma is also phenomenal.
My Heart Will Go On will totally surprise you, I promise. 😄
I agree!
We love Dan❤ He improves every song he sings!!!
The 'backing vocal chanting' you mentioned in the chorus are also in Adele's original - they're "You're gonna wish you / never had met me / tears are gonna fall / rolling in the deep."
This is my first time hearing you do an analysis. I love how thorough you are. You definitely need to jump into the Dan Vasc rabbit hole. He sings everything from classic Italian opera to true heavy metal like AC/DC and Metallica… And nearly everything in between including an Elvis compilation. He is amazing and his music arrangements are incredible.
Thank you for your great analysis of this cover by Dan.
It was very insightful and informative.
Dan's vocal abilities and presence are unique and captivating.
This is not a metal version. He does metal, his band Fearless is a metal band. He is classically trained, he sing opera, metal, Elvis, he is an amazing artist. He sings hymns. I listen to his music daily.
I don't listen to metal but about 4years ago I heard Dan's "Amazing Grace" and listened to it about 100 times. That is a must. And "My heart will go on" is not a water funeral song anymore; that is if you listen to Dan Vascanizing it😂.
Appreciate your video's. TX. Greetings from South Africa
Dan's "Amazing Grace" came out last year at Easter. Just FYI.
WOW SH! This was certainly different! Great performance and super reaction! Thank you for presenting in your own spectacular way this (new to me) talent! From what I hear Amazing Grace should be next!!??!! 🎙🎸
Cool!!! Please react to more Dan's covers!!!
Watch Toss a coin to your witcher. Freaking amazing vocal range
Wonderful musical breakdown analysis.
I think you will enjoy diving into Dan's catalogue - lots of really great stuff to analyze in there.
I really like you sir hairless!!! Very nice face and voice! Dan sings with himself!❤
Nessum Dorma!!! You MUST hear it. Also, O holy night. I love Dan Vasc!!
The Internet is talking about this boy! God given talent! The miracle lives in your throat! .....and his diligence, which got him this far.
I am greatly entertained by Dan Vasc and I loved your in depth interpretation of this song. I personally have very little musical background or understanding. But I do love to learn. Please do more Vasc, and I will listen.
Dan is a great vocalist. He does many covers of Nightwish songs.
I love Dan Vasc and was one of your followers urging you to listen to him. I don't think this song is the best showcase of his beautiful voice. I'll Make a Man Out of You, Amazing Grace, Angels We Have Heard on High, his covers of The Witcher songs show his versatility and range much better. His cover of The Phantom songs are amazing as well. he also sings some opera
Big respect to Dan Vasc for his wonderful arrangements of the individual songs ♥️. Dan covered Pokerface by Lady Gaga and it is fantastic... like everything else he does. 🤘Dan's interpretations of Gethsemane Jesus Christ Superstar and Nesum Dorma are outstanding. The whole Witcher series as well as his Disney covers are out of this world. Manowar, Helloween, the selection of songs is huge. He is a really great artist. He puts his own stamp on every song. He has put together an album with his band "Fearless" - Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom - . He does all the filming, editing and lighting himself. Thanks for sharing, I'll be back 👍
Where he sings with himself it is perfect. Just tge .ussings of an 81 YEAR OLD LADY who loves Dan.❤❤❤❤❤
It's exciting to see you having a listen to genres and artists new to you: your background gives you all the "explorer tools" to delve into arrangements, melody, instruments, stylistic choices and all. Your analyses bring me much intellectual and emotional satisfaction... I always look forward to your latest post. Cheers!
Yes, he is that good!!
Yep, just dive down the Dan Vasc Rabbit hole. You won't regret it, just enjoy his voice, music, humour and his musically gifted friends.
Dan: What I really love about is how clear and precise his words are. Impressive, especially since English is not his native language.
I am Not a metal person, but I have heard a couple of Dan’s song. I love his Amazing Grace as well. I would love to see what you think of DISTURBED, “The Sound of Silence” I was surprised of my liking this interpretation, but it was pretty wonderful! Of course I love Simon and Garfunkel, but I think this rendition was a very complimentary version.
Love Change on The Rise. Awesome song! Will have to watch your reaction!
I appreciate you wanting to protect your chords, and I wonder how much Dan protects his instrument, because I respect what he can do with his voice. The guitarist was wonderful to watch as well. Maybe you could check out, his “Amazing Grace?” Thanks so much, my friend. ❤🇺🇸
You can't go wrong with Dan Vasc...he can sing anything...He is FANTASTIC!!!
Metal singers are soo well trained i really like his approach to some of the covers he made.
I first seen your channel while looking for dimash reaction/analysis, the amount of things you notice in 1 play thru is insane, bravo. Dan is basically a heavy metal dimash IMO he has a crazy range and a lot of different "colors" he can sing with. He's got a multitude of different genres that pretty well always have a rock or metal undertone. Please check out more of Dan, his cover of "battle hymn" by Manowar is my personal favorite
I love Dan Vasc and am very happy that you reacted to him. I highly recommend that you react to his version of "Amazing Grace." For some reason, that song makes me think that he is classically trained. It's an awesome performance, and I hope you'll react to it. Thanks for another fabulous reaction!!! ✌️❤️
O DAN VASC é maravilhoso demais perfeito vozeirão performances impecáveis versátil é uma voz NATO!!!!!! Obrigada por reação!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂❤❤❤
I never dreamed you hadn't found Dan before now! Wow! He can do it all. From heavy metal to theater to gospel to classical to opera! And often he mixes them all with metal! Try Amazing Grace. Or Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" in which he sings ALL the parts from lowest bass to highest soprano! He's absolutely awesome! And then there's breath control...! 💖
I was going to mention Dan to you. I stumbled into him through his brother Davi and the Monster Hunter community. Davi does what you do for video game music and that's how I found you. The algorithm picked up on music analysis. He plays with Dan, although he's not the singer in the family. They are like the Sound of Music in Brazil. They're pretty awesome and very cool guys. He reminds me mostly of Dio or maybe Judas Priest but lighter. He works with a lot of youtube artists so you're going to get the crossover rabbit hole here too.
I Like it soooo much.... Gives good vibes, great Song ... Yes "Dancing egg"😊
@@SirHairless Love it..... Yeahhhhhh
Dan's Amazing Grace is ACES!!!
loved your reaction. subbed immediately. i only sub to those who teach me something about that i am hearing; as it is all a mystery to my how such beauty can be made. if you ask me what is my favorite dan song i would have to ask you which genre, as he is so at home in so many. i'd have to pick a song in each genre. i think you will enjoy getting to know the vocal acrobatics dan performs. anything you react to of his will be good.
Thank you, and welcome
Enjoyed youreaction and analysis.Dan’s performace was so good.
Dan does it All and Always, gives his all! More Dan please!
Wow, my throat feels strained from listening to this song. Thank you for the introduction to Dan Vasc and your great analysis of his voice.
Dan's the Man! Classically trained. He can sing ANYTHING!
Great reaction. Taught me so much. Subbed and waiting to see more from you. Dan mesmerized as always.
Dan is an awesome rabbit hole to fall down. "Burn Butcher Burn" and "Music of the Night" from Phantom are also amazing vids to check out.
If you watch "The Charismatic Voice" review of Dan Vasc's "Amazing Grace"...she explains how he protects his voice chords, well trained demonstration of his vocal/air control.
I'm 72 and never imagined I'd listen to metal but since listening to Dan's Amazing Grace a week ago I've totally binged on his music. He has an amazing voice and amazing presentation.
Loved your analysis. Subbed. Yes, more Dan Vasc, please! He's absolutely phenomenal!
Thanks!
Thank you, Dorothy 🙏
Hello Sir Que legal vc reagindo/analisando e se empolgando com mais um artista brasileiro. Também não faz meu gênero musical mas reconheço um artista. E, novamente, sua reação é de "cair o queixo", como dizemos aqui no Brasil. Você é sensacional. Obrigada por mais esse grande vídeo análise. Beijos do Brasil 😘❤️🇧🇷
🇧🇷🇧🇷
I'm grateful for your analysis. I'm one of the ten people on Earth Who's never heard this song before. But I am in awe at the things you hear and see... Thank you for letting the rest of us in on it❤
All of those previously recommended, especially Gethsemane and Amazing Grace
Sir Hairless, you really should go all out and start listening to all his songs. He is absolutely amazingly talented. No song choice will disappoint. It should mean something if an 86 or old lady asks for his music
Thank you for reacting to Dan’s powerful, explosive blast of musical awesomeness! You had so many great comments and observations! I loved how you broke things down and gave very detailed musical insights. This song is radically EPIC and I feel it is like a vocal and musical buffet- there is so much that Dan packed into this song.
🔥🔥👏🏼❤️🇧🇷💛
Thank you so very much! Blessings, brother! 🤗👏🏼
You got a new sub from this video. I loved watching your eyes and expression as you took in Dan’s cover. You noticed everything. I’m looking forward to many more reactions from you to Dan’s music. It won’t take long for you to see that Dan is both insanely talented and insanely skilled. He is a chameleon and can make any genre his own.
Check out his Phantom of the Opera with Dragica
I'd love to hear your reaction to Dan Vasc's version of "Gethsemane" from the rock musical "Jesus Christ, Superstar". Absolutely incredible vocals!
Yes PLEASE!! More Dan Vasc!! ❤
Every time I hear him I think he's gonna blow his vocal chords completely. He's got quite a range. I loved his Amazing Grace.
Que voz espectacular ,me encantan las grandes voces.Un temazo de ADELE la mejor 👏👏👏👏❤️
Very nice! I enjoyed your expertise, comparisons and explanations. If you want an example of heavy metal, try his Metallica cover of Sad But True. A sample of Power Metal would be his band Fearless, A Tale Without End and a sample of Symphonic Metal would be any of his Nightwish covers but I like Last Ride of the Day or Ever Dream. Happy explorations! 🤘
From what I've noticed, it depends upon the musician as to what instruments are shown being played. Some will show all of the instruments, some will pick one and record the others separately (as Biggy did here), so the bass line was most likely recorded separately while the video focused on him with the guitar.
Other guitarists that have featured with Dan (Victor and Garrett) will frequently show multiple guitars in side-by-side video shots as well as possible keyboards. I think that is done to show that it was done by the musician, but not all on the same instrument.
Cool, thanks for the info 👍🏽
Amazing Grace....it's AMAZING Your reviews are very interesting 👍 Id love to see your review of him singing his version of Amazing Grace 👏 Thank you for your great review 😊
Thank you for reacting to Dan. I just stumbled across him this year and have enjoyed his covers. I’m not a metal fan but he is interesting. I also wonder if his style of singing would be harmful to his vocal cords in the long run.
Apparently he takes very good care of his voice and knows how to maintain it Which I'd imagine is pretty essential 😅
PS: All backing vocals are performed by Dan and the tracks are then layered. Biggie probably layered in his own bass track!
I love your reactions!
I have never listened to metal.
Since hearing Dan"s Amazing Grace I am hooked. His Music of the night is exceptional and I think you will enjoy it. Thanks again. Very interesting.
Enjoyed your analysis.
