A stage beast recognized by all, Johnny went on more than 184 tours and attracted nearly 30 million spectators throughout his career, having given more than 3502 concerts. Johnny is the only French artist whose almost complete works have been recorded in audio and video. About twenty fan clubs (approximately 10,000 members in total). Johnny is also an actor with no less than 43 films (including appearances) to his credit throughout his career. He received a "Jean Gabin" award in 2004 for the film "L'homme du train". Johnny was a good actor, but the films they offered him were not good films, unfortunately.. He dreamed of being an actor and not a singer, but life had other plans, and fortunately so!! Johnny was a great friend of animals, he always had dogs in his life, the animal cause was close to his heart, in 2002 he performed a magnificent song against those who abandon their animals. The song is titled "Au bord des routes" from the magnificent album "À la vie à la mort." In 2016, a year before his death, he was on a motorcycle road trip with friends on American roads, and it was then that he found an abandoned puppy by the side of the road.

He has sung in several languages (English, Italian, Spanish, Turkish, Japanese and German). By listening to his songs, you will realize that this great singer was capable of singing anything. There is something for everyone: rock'n'roll, rhythm and blues, soul, psychedelic rock, soft rock, pop rock, rockabilly, country, a rock opera album (Hamlet) from 1976 (This album was ahead of its time). A unique voice... His voice has continued to evolve over the years, becoming more and more powerful and precise. Johnny can be compared to the greatest singers in the world!! He brought together the rich, the less wealthy, and the poor. He brought together several generations. He gave exceptional concerts, with wild entrances like at the Parc des Princes in 1993, entering from the back of the stadium and parading through the crowd for three consecutive nights. (no one had done that before him). and he did it again in 2013 at Bercy, in 1998 he arrived by helicopter above the Stade de France, in 1984 at the Zenith he emerged from a giant hand (they had to break a wall to get the hand above the stage), in 2012 at the Stade de France he arrived in a giant flying ball resembling a mine, which landed on stage.

A legendary live performance in Paris, France between Johnny and Lara. An historic concert moment of passionate dramatic rock-opera on stage, also one of Lara's favourite moments from her career.
Ok I will try to give the full context: • Johnny : the most admired singer in France from early 60s to 2017 when he died. He is the Elvis of France, sold more than 110M records WW. A real power house, here the mics were balanced to favor Lara as he wanted her to shine. When he died, there were national funerals, with hundred of bikers on the Champs-Elysees, 1 million people along the path of the funeral procession. And this song was played when the coffin penetrated in the church. • The song: this is an anthem song for him, that he used to sing alone. This was turned into a duet for Lara. The story of the song was created in reference to a very famous old french classic movie: Le Jour se Leve (1939) where the main character is barricaded and surrounded by the police, having killed his girlfriend. Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where both are defying the police. • The venue/event: Johnny’s concerts in Stade de France ( biggest stadium in Paris and France) in front of min 80,000. Lara was the surprise special guest. They were supposed to perform it 3 times in a row on September 1998 (4th, 5th and 6th). The first night on the 4th, it was deluge of rain, , the scene was outdoor, it was risky and they decided at the last minute, with the crowd in the stadium, to postpone it to Sep 11th . Johnny was devastated. The second night and the third night the weather was fine enough. The orchestra and choir setup was amazing, the choir especially which was distributed on huge stairs climbing to the sky. But the night of 11th, the rain was here again. Johnny absolutely refused to cancel this time. This is this Sep 11th show that you just watched and the rain just added some dramatic effect to the whole performance. The orchestra was located under a tent. The choir was grouped on the floor and on some balconies (not on stairs anymore obviously) • Lara: she was at the beginning of her career in France and this performance became legendary and accelerated her fame there. She was unknown in France when, in February 1998, she performed this song in duet with Johnny for Les Enfoires, the most attended France TV Show of each year. Johnny was so surprised and amazed by Lara performance that he decided to do this song again as a duet with her for the 3 big concerts a few months later. In between February and September, the album Pure from Lara had become an absolute mega hit in France, and Lara was already a star. But this live performance where she performs as a surprise guest definitely extended her fame and she got new fans across the entire country.
I have few things to say about this video. Some people can think the gestures are exaggerated. You have to put in context. This is a live concert in a stadium with 90 000 peoples, in a rainy day. You have to do this, so anyone can get the message. About the song, it is based on a french movie from 1939. " Le jour se leve" , in english it is called " daybreak or " day raise". With famous french actor: Jean Gabin. It is a story of a guy who killed because of love and now, at sun rise, the police is going to storm his apartment and kill him. In flashback , we see how the all story happened 👍.
That performance of Lara with Johnny establish her has a superstar in France. She was so grateful to Johnny for that opportunity. They remained friend until his death.
Thank you in advance this song is about a passionate murder this is my favorite song Johnny Hallyday passed away in 2017 this song was played when the coffin came into the Church Requiem means Mass for the Dead Love from the Netherlands
Wow! That's interesting! The song that was played at that time,. ..was it the version he did with Lara or was it his original solo version. Forgive me if I'm not correct in this regard, I read somewhere that this song of his was a classic solo song he did....
@@mjcole12 Hai Michael it was Johnny's version, johnny was big in France, he was a student of Edith Piaf about the state funeral was broadcast on french national tv macron gave a speech of 8 minutes, macron also did this at the funeral of charles aznavour france knows how to honor their great artists Lara Fabian also sang a song by Charles Aznavour its Comme ils desent about a transvestite a gay men its such a great song and also you see a totally different site of Lara here But no reactor watched it, maybe they are afraid to alienate Us. lara sang this song in Russia sung Lara this song also Comme ills desent. the woman has courage , sorry for long comment let me get a little carried away . Greetings from the netherlands
Thank you for making another Lara reaction and yes, that's a very intense performance😉. If you're interested, she just gave five concerts in Canada last month, all of them fantastic. You won't believe it, but her voice sounds even better now, this video shows her best vocals: BEST [RECENT LIVE] VOCALS, June 2022, 'Best of' Tour th-cam.com/video/OEFUHNt9EJQ/w-d-xo.html
Johnny's funeral in 2017 there were 3 French presidents ( Sarkozy, Hollande and Macron ) 1 million French people in front of the church " de la Madeleine " and 16 millions in front of the television ...
Mística presentación! Mítica presentación! Gigantes Lara y Jhonny! Descansa en paz querido Jhonny. Gracias por reaccionar a esta joya de la música mundial!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Johnny Hallyday was a living legend. It's hard to put into words what Johnny meant to France and the French speaking parts of Europe and Canada and to millions of fans of him around the world including myself. You can look up the statistics about him which are very impressive, but that wont give you an accurate picture, so let me give you a few snapshots so to speak to illustrate what I'm talking about. First and foremost he was mentored by Edith Piaf when he was 16 years old. That mentorship ended when Piaf tried to seduce the young boy, still Johnny adored her until his dying day and performed many of her songs over the decades. Talking about decades, Johnny's career started in 1960 and he performed until a few months prior to his death at age 74 on December 5th 2017. When I say performed I mean in front of tens of thousands of people even in his seventies. How famous was Johnny? Jimmy Hendrix was the opening act for some of his concerts, he sang with many artists from Bono, to Celine Dion, to Lenny Kravitz, James Brown and the list goes on. His concerts were legendary, so is his voice and his whole personality. Johnny was the one who brought Rock & Roll to France. His biggest concert was in front of 1 million people, yup, you are reading it correctly, 1 million fans who packed the Champs-Elyse up to the base of the Eiffel tower in 2000. All his life he sold out stadiums. People in France always said that Johnny was just as iconic as the Eiffel tower and the French baguette. When he died the francophone world and his fans around the world went into mourning. His funeral was broadcasted live in Europe and Canada. 3 French presidents attended to his funeral service in the Madelaine Church in Paris including the current president Emmanuel Macron who gave a 11 minutes long eulogy on the steps of the church. On the day of his funeral the center of Paris was shut down and about a million people lined up the empty lanes of the Champs-Elyse to watch Johnny's funeral cortege roll by. He truly got a state funeral. Just as a side note, I was one of the lucky people who attended this concert. I knew some of Johnny's songs before, but I never saw him live. Do you know what's the funny part? I went to this concert because I knew that Lara was a guest artist! Of course, after this concert I've become Johnny's life long fan. He's been gone 4 and a half years now, but the pain of his passing just as fresh as it was when my friend called me to tell me that Johnny was gone. I think I'll mourn his passing 'til the day I die.
Lara's microphone sound was at maximum (it resonated..) and Johnny's was lower.. It was Johnny who asked for it to be done like that. Lara was his guest at the Stade de France and he wanted her to demonstrate her vocal power and shine. Lara herself confirmed it. Johnny in all his generosity... Know that Johnny was a vocal power too but on this last interpretation he did not want because it was done on purpose, Johnny was very intelligent in doing that to make the song more dramatic and show their acting on this magnificent song that belongs to him. The desired goal was the dramatic side of the singing all in power but less than Lara (Johnny) with at the same time next to him a more striking singing power (Lara) and the passionate play between the two. Everything was imagined by Johnny himself to end the last interpretation in style. A masterpiece, perhaps the most beautiful duet in the world..🎉💥
Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳. This performance is epic. Johnny is a rock legend in France. This song made from the movie in the 40s. Thank you for the great reaction. 100 likes.
👉This show was performed in front of 80,000 peoples. Requiem means: Funeral, Funeral Mass, Funeral Service. So it's a religious piece of music, an obituary, performed during a funeral. The song is about a man who has killed his lover wants to commit suicide by provoking a police officer to kill him. When Johnny Halliday, *1943, singer, songwriter and actor. He died in 2017, all of France mourned. His funeral was televised live to tens of millions of people across Europe and Canada. 3 French Presidents were present at his funeral, including Emmanuel Macron, who delivered a 12-minute farewell address to thousands of people on the steps of the church. Johnny received a full state funeral. Paris stood still, they closed the Champs-Elyse for his funeral procession and about a million people lined up to bid him farewell. He had a 57-year career from 1960-2017, sold over 100 million albums, recorded over 1000 songs and wrote a hundred of those songs and co-wrote another 100. Not only was he a great musician, but he was also a very humble man out of the limelight. Johnny Halliday is a legend in France like Elvis in America.
That was brilliant, brilliant, Didy ! I would also love to hear Charles Aznavour sing "Il comme dissent." It's spectacular. I prefer the French. but English is great, too. Recorded I think, in 1972, Aznavour's recording company begged him to put a disclaimer on it. He said, "No! We are all artists!" Then, I'd like to hear more Lara, Mais oui! Thank you. Really fabulous!
Johnny Hallyday est le plu grand chanteur français de tout les temps et oui écoute comme j'ai dis dans le commentaire précédent la chanson yentl ,c'est une comédie musicale, du moins une parti de la chanson . Lara n'est pas q'une chanteuse ,cest aussi une actrice,jamais tu ne sera déçu par lara et toujours tu dira elle est incroyable.tu n'a encore rien vu d'elle il y a tant de chanson que ru n'a pas vu ,énormément de chanson
I just posted some details on this legendary performance but let me add a few things that your comments attracted me to highlight: - this link will give you the same perf with some english subtitles, enabling you to understand the very dramatic lyrics: th-cam.com/video/zR1rkt_0biA/w-d-xo.html - Musical: there is another legendary perf from Lara where she acts in Broadway mode. This is her cover of Barbra’s Yentl emblematic songs « Papa can you hear me » and « Piece of sky » where she runs the stage and acts as if she was in a movie th-cam.com/video/zW8lalHMwxk/w-d-xo.html - Discovering some other aspects of her voice : this songs I guess I loved you exposes her beautiful head voice and voice agility like never before th-cam.com/video/EwI-HIfSyqU/w-d-xo.html - Johnny and Lara: they connected well ( artistically speaking 😀) and wanted to perform other duets but Johnny’s young wife became jealous and made sure it did not happen
You sould know more Didy about Johnny. There are reactors though with even less knowledge about him. One of them yesterday reacting to this video asked "who is this guy". This guy had a 57y career (1960-2017), 90.000 people came to see him on that rainy night (nights?) in Paris, 3 French presidents attended his funeral and an album dedicated to him after he passed away made a world record of 800.000 sales within the first 3 days. Reactors should be more educated. As for my love Lara let me not speak, I will not be objective. We all know she is by far the eternal Queen of Emotion and Live Performance
When I hear a Lara Fabian performance for the first time, it tends to become my favorite performance-- right up until I hear another from her for the first time, and the newest takes its place. It's a pleasant sort of confusion :-) --Thanks for the reaction. I thought I had not heard Lara sing until after lockdowns happened, but I saw the Spielberg movie, "AI," in about 2002 and since she sang the movie's song " For Always " --I heard the lady sing long before I knew it. John Williams did the AI score, and I believe Lara also appeared in concert with Williams sometime in 2002 while he led the Boston Pops Orchestra. I'm sure it's on TH-cam
Exelente reacción! Obra maestra impresionante de Jhonny Hallyday (R.i.p) y Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo entero! Reaccióne a Lara Fabián con Michael Bolton,Phill Colins, Zuckero, Dimitri Vorotosbki, Igor Krutoi, Lara Pausini!Gracías!
Hello ,magnifique reaction . Écoute la reprise de Barbra Streisand yentl, exceptionnel . La chanson qui est considerer comme la plus dure à chanson par sais variation et ça durer presque 7m. Écoute aussi ascolta la voce
hello, Johny Hallyday is dead now, and was a show master in France, rocky voice well known, and you add to him Lara Fabian with no autotunes, just real singing, real singing, the magic of a real voice, a great singer with singing techniques mastered to perfection
Great reaction again Diddy. Johnny Hallyday (R.I.P.) was a highly acclaimed French rock singer and actor, often referred to as the French Elvis 🙂 Listen to his "Souvenirs Souvenirs" and you'll quickly understand the Elvis reference 🙂 He lost his hearing on his left ear after the sequence at 8:14 (kidding) and he died from cancer a few years ago. He was one of the artists I used to listen to when learning French. I also listened to Edit Piaf a lot. Take care 😉
Thank you very much Sue , glad to have you in my corner because sorry too say most men love lara her soft site there is so much more to her , don't you agree? Eric in this comment section writes a link with the powerful subtitles Kind regards from the netherlands 🇳🇱
@@Eannemarie739 Yes! I agree; she is So beautiful, and her soft voice so appealing... But she is a STRONG, TOUGH woman who Stands up for what she believes in...equality, LGBTQ rights, anti-war, etc. Amazing Person. God Bless...from America
PS - I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the fact that you play these performances without stopping them. It drives me insane when other reactors do that; and the worst ones are those who stop it without respect for the flow of the songs. I understand that TH-camrs feel they must stop it for ads or copyright reasons - but to simply CUT HER OFF in the middle of a phrase - or, worse yet, MID-NOTE? It’s sacrilege. So, thank you SO much for sharing your honest reactions without pandering to the “Sorry, I have to pause it here to say something inane” mindset. 💖
Hi Didy, I loved watching you being blown away by Lara in Rock mode with Johnny. If you haven't seen it yet, please follow Eric's recommendation for Lara paying homage to Barbra Steisand with an extract from her movie "Yentl", which is amazing! May I also ask that you review more Eva Cassidy songs from "Live at Blues Alley".
Fantastic duet. One of the best ever. Such a Bonny & Clyde feel to it. (you really need the subtitles for it (at least if you don't understand French. They are out there) Keep up the good work my friend ! (and no it's not wrong to ask for ten minutes more :)
Heisann😊 Kom over denne helt tilfeldig, og ser du har reagert på flere av Lara sine sanger👍 Denne opptredenen er 10/10 Har sett den mange ganger og har den på spillelisten😍 Du vet jo sikkert at Aurora er min favoritt artist, men Lara har den mest fantastiske stemmen ever. Har elsket henne siden hun ga ut "I will love again"👍 Vanskelig å ha en favoritt sang, men denne er oppi toppen sammen med "Perdere L'amore", "Caruso", "Jeg suis malade", "Adagio", "I will love again", "Jeg t'aime"... Skal sjekke ut de andre videoene i morgen👍
hello didy if you want to see another side of lara watch please Tocammi from Mademoiselle Zhivago this is art has no subtitles but the message gets across zhivago was made by Alan Badoev commissioned by Igor Krutoy especially for Lara the whole movie is severely underrated
You haven’t seen her do Caruso yet! It’s from the same live concert, From Lara with Love - and it will blow you away. Edit - I agree w/others here - her performance of the Yentl song is not to be missed. She also did The Prayer w/Michael Bolton, accompanied by David Foster, who is its primary composer. Many people cite the Celine Dion/Andrea Bocelli live version as the pinnacle of its performance… but Fabian and Bolton arguablimprove on it. It’s hard for me to choose, because (unlike you 😜) I love Celine Dion’s voice - when she’s not doing her vocal gymnastics routine. (Dion does that stuff because it’s a crowd pleaser- but she’s playing to the lowest common denominator, if you will, when she does it. I far prefer Lara and her artistry; she can still sell a song better than anyone, but it never feels forced or histrionic, despite what some people say. Celine… well, I really resent her role in keeping Lara from becoming a breakout star in America - though, to be fair, I think most of that was the machinations of Celine’s management at Sony…) But seriously - you HAVE to see her Caruso. I’ve no doubt you’ll eventually see everything she’s done, because how can anyone resist, once they’ve been exposed to this divine artist?
Yes i totally agree Jaime, but some videos require me to make them "see through" just so it doesn't get blocked. This was one of the videos that I had to do it with, otherwise it would have been blocked and no one would ever see it or listen to it. I hope You understand.

A legendary live performance in Paris, France between Johnny and Lara. An historic concert moment of passionate dramatic rock-opera on stage, also one of Lara's favourite moments from her career.
Ok I will try to give the full context:
• Johnny :
the most admired singer in France from early 60s to 2017 when he died. He is the Elvis of France, sold more than 110M records WW. A real power house, here the mics were balanced to favor Lara as he wanted her to shine.
When he died, there were national funerals, with hundred of bikers on the Champs-Elysees, 1 million people along the path of the funeral procession. And this song was played when the coffin penetrated in the church.
• The song:
this is an anthem song for him, that he used to sing alone. This was turned into a duet for Lara. The story of the song was created in reference to a very famous old french classic movie: Le Jour se Leve (1939) where the main character is barricaded and surrounded by the police, having killed his girlfriend. Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where both are defying the police.
• The venue/event:
Johnny’s concerts in Stade de France ( biggest stadium in Paris and France) in front of min 80,000. Lara was the surprise special guest. They were supposed to perform it 3 times in a row on September 1998 (4th, 5th and 6th). The first night on the 4th, it was deluge of rain, , the scene was outdoor, it was risky and they decided at the last minute, with the crowd in the stadium, to postpone it to Sep 11th . Johnny was devastated. The second night and the third night the weather was fine enough. The orchestra and choir setup was amazing, the choir especially which was distributed on huge stairs climbing to the sky.
But the night of 11th, the rain was here again. Johnny absolutely refused to cancel this time. This is this Sep 11th show that you just watched and the rain just added some dramatic effect to the whole performance. The orchestra was located under a tent. The choir was grouped on the floor and on some balconies (not on stairs anymore obviously)
• Lara:
she was at the beginning of her career in France and this performance became legendary and accelerated her fame there. She was unknown in France when, in February 1998, she performed this song in duet with Johnny for Les Enfoires, the most attended France TV Show of each year. Johnny was so surprised and amazed by Lara performance that he decided to do this song again as a duet with her for the 3 big concerts a few months later. In between February and September, the album Pure from Lara had become an absolute mega hit in France, and Lara was already a star. But this live performance where she performs as a surprise guest definitely extended her fame and she got new fans across the entire country.
Wow! Thank you so much for the info. I greatly appreciate your taking the time to respond to my comments. Your star just got brighter for me!
I have few things to say about this video.
Some people can think the gestures are exaggerated. You have to put in context. This is a live concert in a stadium with 90 000 peoples, in a rainy day. You have to do this, so anyone can get the message.
About the song, it is based on a french movie from 1939. " Le jour se leve" , in english it is called " daybreak or " day raise".
With famous french actor: Jean Gabin. It is a story of a guy who killed because of love and now, at sun rise, the police is going to storm his apartment and kill him. In flashback , we see how the all story happened 👍.
That performance of Lara with Johnny establish her has a superstar in France.
She was so grateful to Johnny for that opportunity.
They remained friend until his death.
It's one of my Favorit's in many years now. So much emotions and real Requiem
Thank you in advance this song is about a passionate murder this is my favorite song Johnny Hallyday passed away in 2017 this song was played when the coffin came into the Church Requiem means Mass for the Dead Love from the Netherlands
Thank you so much for sharing that with us Annemarie💕💕
Wow! That's interesting! The song that was played at that time,. ..was it the version he did with Lara or was it his original solo version. Forgive me if I'm not correct in this regard, I read somewhere that this song of his was a classic solo song he did....

Greetings from the netherlands
En plus qu elle chante merveilleusement bien ,elle est jolie ,et intelligente ,c est une belle personne
Thank you for making another Lara reaction and yes, that's a very intense performance😉. If you're interested, she just gave five concerts in Canada last month, all of them fantastic. You won't believe it, but her voice sounds even better now, this video shows her best vocals: BEST [RECENT LIVE] VOCALS, June 2022, 'Best of' Tour th-cam.com/video/OEFUHNt9EJQ/w-d-xo.html
Lara with Johnny in this song are amazing..From france
Johnny's funeral in 2017 there were 3 French presidents ( Sarkozy, Hollande and Macron ) 1 million French people in front of the church " de la Madeleine " and 16 millions in front of the television ...
Yeah ! Thank you for sharing ! 😉👍👍👍👍
Mística presentación! Mítica presentación! Gigantes Lara y Jhonny! Descansa en paz querido Jhonny. Gracias por reaccionar a esta joya de la música mundial!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's an incredible performance of two monsters of the song on stage!!
Johnny Hallyday was a living legend. It's hard to put into words what Johnny meant to France and the French speaking parts of Europe and Canada and to millions of fans of him around the world including myself. You can look up the statistics about him which are very impressive, but that wont give you an accurate picture, so let me give you a few snapshots so to speak to illustrate what I'm talking about. First and foremost he was mentored by Edith Piaf when he was 16 years old. That mentorship ended when Piaf tried to seduce the young boy, still Johnny adored her until his dying day and performed many of her songs over the decades. Talking about decades, Johnny's career started in 1960 and he performed until a few months prior to his death at age 74 on December 5th 2017. When I say performed I mean in front of tens of thousands of people even in his seventies. How famous was Johnny? Jimmy Hendrix was the opening act for some of his concerts, he sang with many artists from Bono, to Celine Dion, to Lenny Kravitz, James Brown and the list goes on. His concerts were legendary, so is his voice and his whole personality. Johnny was the one who brought Rock & Roll to France. His biggest concert was in front of 1 million people, yup, you are reading it correctly, 1 million fans who packed the Champs-Elyse up to the base of the Eiffel tower in 2000. All his life he sold out stadiums. People in France always said that Johnny was just as iconic as the Eiffel tower and the French baguette. When he died the francophone world and his fans around the world went into mourning. His funeral was broadcasted live in Europe and Canada. 3 French presidents attended to his funeral service in the Madelaine Church in Paris including the current president Emmanuel Macron who gave a 11 minutes long eulogy on the steps of the church. On the day of his funeral the center of Paris was shut down and about a million people lined up the empty lanes of the Champs-Elyse to watch Johnny's funeral cortege roll by. He truly got a state funeral. Just as a side note, I was one of the lucky people who attended this concert. I knew some of Johnny's songs before, but I never saw him live. Do you know what's the funny part? I went to this concert because I knew that Lara was a guest artist! Of course, after this concert I've become Johnny's life long fan. He's been gone 4 and a half years now, but the pain of his passing just as fresh as it was when my friend called me to tell me that Johnny was gone. I think I'll mourn his passing 'til the day I die.
Andrea wouw didn't know so many things about Johnny Hallyday
Thank you.
@@Eannemarie739 💓
Johnny whas not French,but whas born in bruxelles in Belgium
Ce sont deux chanteurs fantastiques et ce n'était pas une comédie musicale mais le concert du Stade de France
Lara's microphone sound was at maximum (it resonated..) and Johnny's was lower.. It was Johnny who asked for it to be done like that. Lara was his guest at the Stade de France and he wanted her to demonstrate her vocal power and shine. Lara herself confirmed it. Johnny in all his generosity... Know that Johnny was a vocal power too but on this last interpretation he did not want because it was done on purpose, Johnny was very intelligent in doing that to make the song more dramatic and show their acting on this magnificent song that belongs to him. The desired goal was the dramatic side of the singing all in power but less than Lara (Johnny) with at the same time next to him a more striking singing power (Lara) and the passionate play between the two. Everything was imagined by Johnny himself to end the last interpretation in style. A masterpiece, perhaps the most beautiful duet in the world..🎉💥
Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳. This performance is epic. Johnny is a rock legend in France. This song made from the movie in the 40s. Thank you for the great reaction. 100 likes.
Thank you so much❤️
Merci pour ta réaction 🤗🤗🤗
💕💕
Hi Didy.
I just love your reactions to Lara ❤
Love Lara ❤
Love from Denmark ❤
Johnny Halliyday " l'envie"
merci
The best European theater song ever heard….hat to you and thank you from france
You will love " Toi et moi", by Lara and Dmitri; at the piano Igor Krutoy...Regards from România!
👉This show was performed in front of 80,000 peoples.
Requiem means: Funeral, Funeral Mass, Funeral Service. So it's a religious piece of music, an obituary, performed during a funeral.
The song is about a man who has killed his lover wants to commit suicide by provoking a police officer to kill him.
When Johnny Halliday, *1943, singer, songwriter and actor. He died in 2017, all of France mourned. His funeral was televised live to tens of millions of people across Europe and Canada. 3 French Presidents were present at his funeral, including Emmanuel Macron, who delivered a 12-minute farewell address to thousands of people on the steps of the church. Johnny received a full state funeral. Paris stood still, they closed the Champs-Elyse for his funeral procession and about a million people lined up to bid him farewell.
He had a 57-year career from 1960-2017, sold over 100 million albums, recorded over 1000 songs and wrote a hundred of those songs and co-wrote another 100. Not only was he a great musician, but he was also a very humble man out of the limelight. Johnny Halliday is a legend in France like Elvis in America.
That was brilliant, brilliant, Didy ! I would also love to hear Charles Aznavour sing "Il comme dissent." It's spectacular. I prefer the French. but English is great, too. Recorded I think, in 1972, Aznavour's recording company begged him to put a disclaimer on it. He said, "No! We are all artists!" Then, I'd like to hear more Lara, Mais oui! Thank you. Really fabulous!
Johnny Hallyday est le plu grand chanteur français de tout les temps et oui écoute comme j'ai dis dans le commentaire précédent la chanson yentl ,c'est une comédie musicale, du moins une parti de la chanson .
Lara n'est pas q'une chanteuse ,cest aussi une actrice,jamais tu ne sera déçu par lara et toujours tu dira elle est incroyable.tu n'a encore rien vu d'elle il y a tant de chanson que ru n'a pas vu ,énormément de chanson
Love your headline ! Just the same after each new perf from her you review 😂🤣
But I know this feeling
I just posted some details on this legendary performance but let me add a few things that your comments attracted me to highlight:
- this link will give you the same perf with some english subtitles, enabling you to understand the very dramatic lyrics: th-cam.com/video/zR1rkt_0biA/w-d-xo.html
- Musical: there is another legendary perf from Lara where she acts in Broadway mode. This is her cover of Barbra’s Yentl emblematic songs « Papa can you hear me » and « Piece of sky » where she runs the stage and acts as if she was in a movie
th-cam.com/video/zW8lalHMwxk/w-d-xo.html
- Discovering some other aspects of her voice : this songs I guess I loved you exposes her beautiful head voice and voice agility like never before th-cam.com/video/EwI-HIfSyqU/w-d-xo.html
- Johnny and Lara: they connected well ( artistically speaking 😀) and wanted to perform other duets but Johnny’s young wife became jealous and made sure it did not happen
You sould know more Didy about Johnny. There are reactors though with even less knowledge about him. One of them yesterday reacting to this video asked "who is this guy". This guy had a 57y career (1960-2017), 90.000 people came to see him on that rainy night (nights?) in Paris, 3 French presidents attended his funeral and an album dedicated to him after he passed away made a world record of 800.000 sales within the first 3 days. Reactors should be more educated. As for my love Lara let me not speak, I will not be objective. We all know she is by far the eternal Queen of Emotion and Live Performance
When I hear a Lara Fabian performance for the first time, it tends to become my favorite performance--
right up until I hear another from her for the first time, and the newest takes its place. It's a pleasant
sort of confusion :-) --Thanks for the reaction. I thought I had not heard Lara sing until after lockdowns
happened, but I saw the Spielberg movie, "AI," in about 2002 and since she sang the movie's song " For Always "
--I heard the lady sing long before I knew it. John Williams did the AI score, and I believe Lara also appeared
in concert with Williams sometime in 2002 while he led the Boston Pops Orchestra. I'm sure it's on TH-cam
It’s here but it’s the duet version with Josh Groban th-cam.com/video/V4dttmn3ppU/w-d-xo.html
Exelente reacción! Obra maestra impresionante de Jhonny Hallyday (R.i.p) y Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo entero! Reaccióne a Lara Fabián con Michael Bolton,Phill Colins, Zuckero, Dimitri Vorotosbki, Igor Krutoi, Lara Pausini!Gracías!
Maybe if you say please Alexander🥰😉
Great reaction it was a concert
Hello ,magnifique reaction .
Écoute la reprise de Barbra Streisand yentl, exceptionnel .
La chanson qui est considerer comme la plus dure à chanson par sais variation et ça durer presque 7m.
Écoute aussi ascolta la voce
Absolute love ascolta la voice.. follow the voice ..love Mademoiselle Zhivago all together..art pure art and underrated.
🇳🇱 from Holland 😉
Put the lyrics up Bro its even more enjoyable.
Great piece of music
hello, Johny Hallyday is dead now, and was a show master in France, rocky voice well known, and you add to him Lara Fabian with no autotunes, just real singing, real singing, the magic of a real voice, a great singer with singing techniques mastered to perfection
Great reaction again Diddy. Johnny Hallyday (R.I.P.) was a highly acclaimed French rock singer and actor, often referred to as the French Elvis 🙂 Listen to his "Souvenirs Souvenirs" and you'll quickly understand the Elvis reference 🙂 He lost his hearing on his left ear after the sequence at 8:14 (kidding) and he died from cancer a few years ago. He was one of the artists I used to listen to when learning French. I also listened to Edit Piaf a lot. Take care 😉
Hey Didy...Wow! This was INTENSE!🥺🥺🥺 Lots of Passion in THIS ONE, for sure!! Glad Annemarie posted an explanation!👍👍💕 Thanks..Good one!👍👌💖
Thank you very much Sue , glad to have you in my corner because sorry too say most men love lara her soft site
there is so much more to her , don't you agree?
Eric in this comment section writes a link with the powerful subtitles
Kind regards from the netherlands 🇳🇱
@@Eannemarie739 Yes! I agree; she is So beautiful, and her soft voice so appealing... But she is a STRONG, TOUGH woman who Stands up for what she believes in...equality, LGBTQ rights, anti-war, etc. Amazing Person. God Bless...from America
PS - I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the fact that you play these performances without stopping them. It drives me insane when other reactors do that; and the worst ones are those who stop it without respect for the flow of the songs. I understand that TH-camrs feel they must stop it for ads or copyright reasons - but to simply CUT HER OFF in the middle of a phrase - or, worse yet, MID-NOTE? It’s sacrilege.
So, thank you SO much for sharing your honest reactions without pandering to the “Sorry, I have to pause it here to say something inane” mindset. 💖
Hi Didy, I loved watching you being blown away by Lara in Rock mode with Johnny. If you haven't seen it yet, please follow Eric's recommendation for Lara paying homage to Barbra Steisand with an extract from her movie "Yentl", which is amazing!
May I also ask that you review more Eva Cassidy songs from "Live at Blues Alley".
Fantastic duet. One of the best ever. Such a Bonny & Clyde feel to it.
(you really need the subtitles for it (at least if you don't understand French. They are out there)
Keep up the good work my friend !
(and no it's not wrong to ask for ten minutes more :)
Maybe Diddy do this song again with subtitles the song is worth it and will certainly get more vieuws given the reactions in general .
Heisann😊
Kom over denne helt tilfeldig, og ser du har reagert på flere av Lara sine sanger👍
Denne opptredenen er 10/10
Har sett den mange ganger og har den på spillelisten😍
Du vet jo sikkert at Aurora er min favoritt artist, men Lara har den mest fantastiske stemmen ever.
Har elsket henne siden hun ga ut "I will love again"👍
Vanskelig å ha en favoritt sang, men denne er oppi toppen sammen med "Perdere L'amore", "Caruso", "Jeg suis malade", "Adagio", "I will love again", "Jeg t'aime"...
Skal sjekke ut de andre videoene i morgen👍
💖💖
💙
hello didy
if you want to see another side of lara watch please Tocammi from Mademoiselle Zhivago this is art has no subtitles but the message gets across zhivago was made by Alan Badoev commissioned by Igor Krutoy especially for Lara the whole movie is severely underrated
Is it possible for a man to experience one of Lara Fabian's performances and not become bewitched? i DOUBT IT
Well this one was a bit over done for me but I generally love Lara.
You haven’t seen her do Caruso yet!
It’s from the same live concert, From Lara with Love - and it will blow you away.
Edit - I agree w/others here - her performance of the Yentl song is not to be missed.
She also did The Prayer w/Michael Bolton, accompanied by David Foster, who is its primary composer.
Many people cite the Celine Dion/Andrea Bocelli live version as the pinnacle of its performance… but Fabian and Bolton arguablimprove on it. It’s hard for me to choose, because (unlike you 😜) I love Celine Dion’s voice - when she’s not doing her vocal gymnastics routine.
(Dion does that stuff because it’s a crowd pleaser- but she’s playing to the lowest common denominator, if you will, when she does it. I far prefer Lara and her artistry; she can still sell a song better than anyone, but it never feels forced or histrionic, despite what some people say. Celine… well, I really resent her role in keeping Lara from becoming a breakout star in America - though, to be fair, I think most of that was the machinations of Celine’s management at Sony…)
But seriously - you HAVE to see her Caruso. I’ve no doubt you’ll eventually see everything she’s done, because how can anyone resist, once they’ve been exposed to this divine artist?
no CC :(
It will come :)
CC is added 😊
@@didymalgia Merci :)
J'imagine qu'avoir Lara qui chante à pleine voix à 2 centimètre de son oreille, ça doit perturber un peu, non?
😂😁
Oui, moi aussi je vois ça, un inconfort pour ses oreilles. Et que Lara a un micro qui donne un écho à sa voix. Pas Johnny.
Johnny bigger star in France it's a french Elvis Presley ...
I like your comments but you should have a better display in your video. I could hardly see the singer, the stage and the audience.
Yes i totally agree Jaime, but some videos require me to make them "see through" just so it doesn't get blocked.
This was one of the videos that I had to do it with, otherwise it would have been blocked and no one would ever see it or listen to it. I hope You understand.
You should listen to Lara singing “ As they say “ “ Comme ils disent “. Originally from Charles Aznavour . . . An incredible acting performance 👍🏼❤️
