David Foster introducing Lara: “we couldn’t believe what we were were hearing, it was a voice from another planet or something. (…). She is top of the heap of the world great voices."
J ai lu ça, mais je pense que tu connaissais déjà:" le 11 septembre 1998, Johnny Hallyday invitait Lara Fabian - qui venait de vendre plusieurs millions de disques de son troisième album Pure - à le rejoindre au Stade de France pour partager un duo devenu instantanément culte sur Requiem pour un fou. "Ce moment prend racine aux Enfoirés puisque c'est là qu'il se présente devant moi avec une gerbe de roses oranges. Il me dit : "Est-ce que tu accepterais de chanter au Stade avec moi ? Tu es la seule femme que je veux inviter". Plus tard, il prononcera cette phrase incroyable en conférence de presse quand on lui demande pourquoi moi et il répondra tout simplement parce que 'Lara, c'est moi en nana' !", a confié Lara Fabian à Franceinfo en dévoilant les coulisses de cette collaboration qui a marqué l'histoire de la musique francophone. " -> 'Lara, c'est moi en nana' ouah! hommage d un belge à une belge
@@legitor513 oui j’avais lu 😀 Et meme entendu les interviews Par contre, petite correction, mais Johnny n’ est pas Belge, mais fils, reconnu tardivement, de Belge. Au départ il s’appelait Jean-Philippe Clerc comme sa mère puis ensuite Jean-Philippe Smet comme son père. Né à Paris, il n’avait pas la nationalité belge mais uniquement française, car né hors mariage. Et il a d’ailleurs cherché un temps à acquérir la nationalité Belge pour des raisons fiscales avant d’abandonner. Elevé ensuite par sa tante belge, le jeune Jean-Philippe Smet, déménagera à Londres où sa tante belge et ses deux cousines plus âgées vivent la vie de music-hall. Sa cousine la plus âgée se mariera avec Lee Halliday, danseur acrobatique américain, et il sera comme leur fils adoptif. Le danseur le surnommait Johnny. Donc pour son nom de scène il a juste transformé un "i" en "y" et c’était fait.
More information on Lara Fabian: Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Shirley Bassey, Lisa Fischer, .... In my personal opinion, she is even the best. There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 10,000+ attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register. So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence: • she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for 200+ songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music, and is at the source of the melodic line. • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none • she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens. A quick background on her and her career: She is belgian, her father is flemish and grand mother on father side is dutch, but she also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( the father of her mother is from Detroit). She had been raised in Sicilia first for 7 years then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages. She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory. She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She only moved away from opera to pop because she is first and foremost a songwriter. After her Eurovision participation in 1988 (4th), she really started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada. She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She moved to Sicilia end of 2022. She became very famous in Quebec in the early 90s with several double platine records and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music). In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and was number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US. This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on). But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan. She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance. She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), Linda Eder, … With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there. Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her. She is Dimash's idol: • I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep. • He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara. Out of my mind I can list: ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version) ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know") • She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love". • And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva). • Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara. Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …) ○ Floor Jansen (Adagio), ○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime), ○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie), ○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow), ○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace), ○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow), ○ Charice Penpengco (Adagio), ○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Pauline Aguirre (Adagio)), ○ George Peris (Broken Vow, Humana), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Wanessa Camargo (Love by Grace), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anne Sila (pas sans toi, Tu es mon autre), ○ The Canadian Tenors (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio), ○ Sarah Naura Irbah (Mademoiselle Hyde), ○ Elisabetta Rinaldi (Adagio), ○ Alyona Yarushina (Adagio), ○ Marie Payet (Pas sans toi), ○ Laurh (Immortelle), ○ Inger Lise Hope (Adagio), ○ Håkon Sønsterud Tollefsrød (Broken Vow), ○ Flora Tandi (Bambina), ○ Cindy Chao (Yeliel My Angel), ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Abraham Mateo (Adagio), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Russel Watson (Adagio), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Annointed (Love by Grace), ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October 2022 and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular. On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania. She is about to release a new album and just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour France in 2025. The first song of her new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was released late January 2024 and is a success in France. Her album is expected to be released in fall 2024. Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
Lara acting as a vocal coach in Quebec or France: “you have to train and practice every day, just to forget about vocal technics and focus on the emotions and the story”

“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973. This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …). When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours. The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes. Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad. But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s. At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version. She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone. Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on. The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella. Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic th-cam.com/video/SyILdRAOS88/w-d-xo.html
@ericsicard910 merci d'avoir rendu à César ce qui lui appartient 🙂 I would just add a link to the original version done by Serge Lama, because, and sadly, people usually will stay on Lara's cover (which is great btw) ! th-cam.com/video/pl2UKR4auf8/w-d-xo.html
Found out about her through reactions just over a month ago, then found myself on a plane to go see her live. Twenty-odd years after this video, she still has the power to absolutely rip your heart out in multiple languages, and to my surprise rock out the uptempo songs as well. I've seen a lot of great performers, and there is no one like her. No one.

Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳. Thank you for the great reaction to Lara Fabian. She is one of the best female vocalist in the world . Suggestion for the next reaction: “ Je t’aimes “ Live in Paris 2001. This is an emotional performance.
🇨🇦 Lara writes, sings, produces and arranges most of her own concerts ! And she does this in French, Italian, Spanish and English as well as singing in about 8 or 9 other languages ! 🇨🇦
Thank you for reacting to my request. I love the way you mentioned how even though you are a vocal coach, Lara made you forget about the technical aspects of her performance and made you just feel her performance. I am not a vocal coach. I am a fan of Lara's because of the way she makes me forget my surroundings during each and every one of her performances and allows me to feel her performances. In my opinion, she may be the best female singer of all time. Please react to Lara's live performances of "Adagio" and "Broken Vow". I will link them with coffee purchases. Thanks again for your sincere and heartfelt reaction to Lara Fabian.
Great reaction to such an amazing performance! My favourite female singer for sure! Please react to more of Lara. All her songs are amazing! Greetings from London 😀
@@FaanaMusic I recommend the following songs to react to. You're not from here, Adagio, Broken Vow, Caruso and Perdere l'amore. They are amazing like all her songs! 😀
Spectacular reaction my friend Faana!!...I'm glad you finally had the chance to react to Goddess Lara Fabian!!...She is one of the best singers in the world and that is why artists like Dimash have her as their idol...We hope to soon see other reactions to her incredible songs, but remember, always in LIVE versions, because that is when Lara is more spectacular!!....A big hug for you!!
There is another performance of this song from 2001, if I remember correctly, on TH-cam where she just sing the a capela part with the microphone in a large venue.
I am happy to watch your reaction with your facial expression, especially your tears. I also liked those words you used to describe her performances. Bravo!
Discovered Lara decades back on some International Music show on a local TV station. Literally wore out my VHS tape of her performing 'Adagio.' For having watched countless reactions to her songs, found yours for 'Je Suis Malade' to be one of my faves. Perfect balance of emotion and observations of technique expressed in such a way as to be easily understood by, and relatable to, the casual listener. So many reactions lean very heavily one way or the other. Hopefully you'll consider checking out more Lara. Rest assured, you'll come away impressed every time.
Lara and Dimash, are the only 2 singers that goes into my soul. Thanks for the reaction. The song You are not from here, from the same concert, Lara with love, is my favorite song. Greetings from Spain🇪🇸
Perfect reaction on the most perfect female singer!!! And so many more songs to react on... Caruso Broken vows Llora Tu es mon autre ... Thank you! And please react on Sissel. Slow down Like an angel passing through my room I rest my eyes Panis angelicum ... Thanks and greetings from Belgium!
Ogni tanto finalmente una analisi giusta su cosa significa saper "raccontare una storia e mandare un messaggio al pubblico". Saper trasmettere emozioni, coinvolgere, catturare l'attenzione di chi ti ascolta mentre sei su un palco.. E questo lo sa fare solo un grande artista, che si immedesima totalmente nel personaggio e nella storia con tutta la sua vulnerabilità e sensibilità. E purtroppo questo si è perso da un po'. Recentemente i vari "cantanti" che vediamo emergere dai talent show pensano soltanto ad impressionare, a voler far vedere quanto sono bravi a "prendere una nota alta" in belting. Poi trascurano tutto il resto.. L'interpretazione, il voler e saper raccontare una storia, il coinvolgimento emotivo.. Quindi noi spettatori siamo ormai abituati a vedere questo.. Se un cantante "tocca una nota alta o no".. 😮. Se lo fa, il giorno dopo sui social è già considerato il migliore cantante al mondo... 😢 Ma questo non ti fa essere un grande cantante, un grande intérprete, un vero artista. Un vero artista è quello che va sul palco ed è "sempre" capace di raccontare una storia e te la fa vivere.. Anche trascurando la tecnica, anche sembrando "tecnicamente scorretto" in alcuni passaggi. ... e.. aggiungo.. . Bisogna essere un Masterclass di bravura e talento per saperlo fare ... In questa magnifica interpretazione Lara fa questo.. Non si preoccupa di come "suona la sua voce", non si preoccupa di apparire " strana".. non si preoccupa di" far sentire il suono pesante del suo respiro".... (tecnicamente non si dovrebbe fare). Si prende il rischio addirittura di portare la sua voce al limite del crack, sembra che stia piangendo veramente.. Ma non è così.. È pienamente consapevole di quello che sta facendo.. Ma vuole trasmettere quello che sta provando dentro e quello che la canzone comporta... . È malata, sta male, non riesce a pensare e a respirare, non riesce ad andare avanti con la sua vita a causa del dolore che prova. E lo fa in maniera divina, surreale, perfetta!!! Oggigiorno siamo così tanto abituati a vedere "Cover". Viviamo di cover, ormai si è persa la voglia di scrivere canzoni proprie.. E, ci sarà un motivo per cui nessuno, e ribadisco nessuno, ha mai fatto una cover di questa interpretazione di Lara nella stessa maniera.. E il motivo è semplice.. Lara Fabian è una masterclass di intelligenza e di interpretazione canora.. È così camaleontica che riesce ad ogni canzone a immedesimarsi esattamente nel ruolo previsto. E se non hai una tecnica sopraffina, se non hai umiltà e sensibilità di animo, non lo puoi fare.... E capiamo poi perché qualcuno come Dimash o Diana Ankutinova siano stati influenzati dal suo modo di cantare. Entrambi quando vanno sul palco trasmettono emozioni e sensazioni forti, sanno raccontare una storia.... "Je suis malade , Requiem por on fou, Yentl medley, Dites moi pourquoi Je l'aime, Starmania medley, Adagio, Broken vow, You're not from here, Perdere l'amore, Caruso" ... rimangono a mio avviso il "Top di tecnica e interpretazione" che un cantante possa offrire..
I'm doing my best to "grow" right now.. To open my heart, be vulnerable and authentic... People like you, who aren't afraid to remind us that we're meant to feel on a deep level and express it, even with the whole world watching... You are shining a bright light my friend.. Thank you.. ❤🙏
🇨🇦 I sincerely endorse a recommendation below, and suggest you try reacting to "You're not from here" (which she wrote) ! And, by all means, discuss the technical aspects, because most of her fans on here are fully aware ! 🇨🇦
The best live vocalist of all time. Please check out "Caruso" from the same concert ("restored version" for better sound). There's a reason Lara is Dimash's idol.
Your nose started to be red when you started listen the song. That tells me you are very sensitive to others emotions. A good person.Loved your reaction.
The Queen of resonance, breath control, phrasing, the best composer and stories teller. ❤❤❤ That's why she's known as The Ring. Trained to be an Opera Singer for 10 years, but decided to compose and performe Pop songs. Fluently in 4 languages and has already sang in 12 languages perfectly. You should react to her singing Adagio 2 months ago with the Cellist Stjepan Hauser. She's currently 54 years, touring around the world and she has been also the vocal coach at The Voice France since 2005.
I recommend you a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she is a singer that transmits a lot when she sings and has incredible melismas. She is also very versatile when it comes to singing. She sings different musical styles. Best regards
🇨🇦 Secondly, your brain will be fried to learn that Lara did not write this song (Serge Lama did) but that even the composer said that Lara's was the Best version ! 🇨🇦
Not the composer (this is Alice Dona) but the lyrics writer and original performer Serge Lama, yes. He invited her to sing the song in duet with him at one of his concerts, then sat on the front row and asked her to sing it again but alone.
She’s a phenomenon This song doesn’t have a language, it’s either you feel it or you don’t! There’s no such thing as vocal experts when it comes to Laura, she’s the expert of her own vocal sounds.
She actually did perform at the opening, with this very song (but with another French singer). Just in front of the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral. Look for it on TH-cam.
Merci pour ta super analyse sur Lara Fabian. Je te suggère un autre artiste Belge, qui vivait en France : Jacques Brel : Ne me quitte pas (émotion garanti)
Will you please react to Lara Fabian & Mario Frangoulis cover of Cole Porters So in Love from Kiss Me Kate? I would love to see your thoughts. Mario also have an amazing voice and is classically trained and has a beautiful cover of Knights in White Satin in Italian! Also to hear Lara Fabian's lyrical soprano side you need to listen to La Traviata!
I recommend you to check "Adagio"; "Broken vow", "Perdere l'amore", "Caruso", "You are not from here", "Requiem pour un fou ft. Johnny Hallydey", "Je t'aime encore", "Mademoiselle hyde", "i guess i loved you" all live
Please listen ti requiem pour un fou great drama i.m a Canadian soprano living in Italy from Pavarotti school i am on you tube thank you for your reaction ❤
Lara Fabian is a singing legend, but unfortunately her prime was outside of the United States, and before TH-cam became popular for sharing amazing talent. However, her talent has inspired many superstars over the years. Dimash counts her as one of his idols as he was growing into his own talent over the past 2 decades. There's a reason he covers so many of Lara's songs and sang several duets with her, even at the end of her career. They have much in common. They both worked with Igor Krutoy, are both super humble and lovable, can both sing with amazing emotion, are multi-lingual, etc....
They have not sang any duets together. Those videos create the effect by splicing their own performances together. The only time they sang together was Ti Amo Cosi.
@ericsicard910 merci d'avoir rendu à César ce qui lui appartient 🙂 I would just add a link to the original version done by Serge Lama, because, and sadly, people usually will stay on Lara's cover (which is great btw) ! th-cam.com/video/pl2UKR4auf8/w-d-xo.html
Hi, may I suggest you to listen to the young British singer Lucy Thomas? She is 20 years old now. Recorded 5 studio albums. Her first solo concert took place in march in Manchester. In September she performes in Tokyo. In October there will be a concert at the famous theatre in London. There about 70 videos on her TH-cam channel LucyThomasMusic. She has an amazing voice. You won't be disappointed. Her last song is Unchained Melody. It's something unreal.
Very moving reaction! Thank you. There's a superb trio performance of Lara singing with Dimash and Aida, with Igor Krutoy on piano - "Ti Amo Cosi". th-cam.com/video/XaQFfqC3lnU/w-d-xo.html It's live, over a skating rink, with skaters performing, too. What's most impressive of this trio is just how generous they are with each other on this stage. But hold on for the final note!

David Foster introducing Lara: “we couldn’t believe what we were were hearing, it was a voice from another planet or something. (…). She is top of the heap of the world great voices."
J ai lu ça, mais je pense que tu connaissais déjà:" le 11 septembre 1998, Johnny Hallyday invitait Lara Fabian - qui venait de vendre plusieurs millions de disques de son troisième album Pure - à le rejoindre au Stade de France pour partager un duo devenu instantanément culte sur Requiem pour un fou. "Ce moment prend racine aux Enfoirés puisque c'est là qu'il se présente devant moi avec une gerbe de roses oranges. Il me dit : "Est-ce que tu accepterais de chanter au Stade avec moi ? Tu es la seule femme que je veux inviter". Plus tard, il prononcera cette phrase incroyable en conférence de presse quand on lui demande pourquoi moi et il répondra tout simplement parce que 'Lara, c'est moi en nana' !", a confié Lara Fabian à Franceinfo en dévoilant les coulisses de cette collaboration qui a marqué l'histoire de la musique francophone. " -> 'Lara, c'est moi en nana' ouah! hommage d un belge à une belge
@@legitor513 oui j’avais lu 😀
Et meme entendu les interviews
Par contre, petite correction, mais Johnny n’ est pas Belge, mais fils, reconnu tardivement, de Belge. Au départ il s’appelait Jean-Philippe Clerc comme sa mère puis ensuite Jean-Philippe Smet comme son père.
Né à Paris, il n’avait pas la nationalité belge mais uniquement française, car né hors mariage. Et il a d’ailleurs cherché un temps à acquérir la nationalité Belge pour des raisons fiscales avant d’abandonner.
Elevé ensuite par sa tante belge, le jeune Jean-Philippe Smet, déménagera à Londres où sa tante belge et ses deux cousines plus âgées vivent la vie de music-hall.
Sa cousine la plus âgée se mariera avec Lee Halliday, danseur acrobatique américain, et il sera comme leur fils adoptif. Le danseur le surnommait Johnny. Donc pour son nom de scène il a juste transformé un "i" en "y" et c’était fait.
Algo así, "en el mundo hay grandes cantantes y por encima de esas grandes cantantes esta Lara Fabian"
Lara is The Queen of Resonance and vowel coordination. She is The Ring. The perfect singer.
❤️🙏 absolutely, she's outstanding!
😍 I love to watch people reacting to the one and only 👸🏼 Queen Lara for the first time. 🤎
More information on Lara Fabian:
Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Shirley Bassey, Lisa Fischer, ....
In my personal opinion, she is even the best.
There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 10,000+ attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register.
So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence:
• she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total
• she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for 200+ songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music, and is at the source of the melodic line.
• she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none
• she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens.
A quick background on her and her career:
She is belgian, her father is flemish and grand mother on father side is dutch, but she also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( the father of her mother is from Detroit). She had been raised in Sicilia first for 7 years then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages.
She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She only moved away from opera to pop because she is first and foremost a songwriter.
After her Eurovision participation in 1988 (4th), she really started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada.
She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She moved to Sicilia end of 2022.
She became very famous in Quebec in the early 90s with several double platine records and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music).
In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and was number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US.
This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on).
But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan.
She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance.
She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then.
Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), Linda Eder, …
With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there.
Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her.
She is Dimash's idol:
• I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep.
• He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara.
Out of my mind I can list:
○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version)
○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know")
• She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love".
• And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva).
• Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida.
Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara.
Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it.
Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …)

NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version.
Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature.
In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October 2022 and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular.
On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania.
She is about to release a new album and just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour France in 2025.
The first song of her new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was released late January 2024 and is a success in France. Her album is expected to be released in fall 2024.
Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
Thank you Eric for all your efforts to spread the word and informing people about Lara's beautiful world 🌎 of music 🎶
@@DAlex33 my pleasure and she deserves it!
Lara acting as a vocal coach in Quebec or France: “you have to train and practice every day, just to forget about vocal technics and focus on the emotions and the story”
Lara is The Queen of Resonance and vowel coordination. She is The Ring. The perfect singer.
this is exactly what the whole arab and oriental singers do btw
@@_Olle__ and some others in many other regions of the world
Lara Fabian is untuchable! She is masterclass in every way. Thank you.

“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973.
This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …).
When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours.
The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes.
Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad.
But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s.
At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version.
She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone.
Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on.
The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal)
th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html
is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries.
The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella.
Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic
th-cam.com/video/SyILdRAOS88/w-d-xo.html
@ericsicard910 merci d'avoir rendu à César ce qui lui appartient 🙂 I would just add a link to the original version done by Serge Lama, because, and sadly, people usually will stay on Lara's cover (which is great btw) ! th-cam.com/video/pl2UKR4auf8/w-d-xo.html
Oui Serge Lama lui a bien ouvert la voie … même si Lara est fantastique.
I recommend "You're not from here". She is the greatest female vocalist alive.
perdere l'amore , broken vow , mademoiselle hyde, je t'aime encore are very very very good too :)
The Ultimate Queen in action 👸🏼
Found out about her through reactions just over a month ago, then found myself on a plane to go see her live. Twenty-odd years after this video, she still has the power to absolutely rip your heart out in multiple languages, and to my surprise rock out the uptempo songs as well. I've seen a lot of great performers, and there is no one like her. No one.
Agree - same with me. Saw her in Zagreb at her 54 y.o. And she stil delivers it like 25 years ago.
You just watched a song performed by Lara Fabian. The best singer of the 21st century. You are lucky. Regards
I do feel lucky to be able to experience her excellence! Thanks for the comment!
Gracias por tu reaccion. Lara es la mejor interprete femenina del mundo para mi. Ella tiene viz de angel.
Beautiful reaction....can't wait for you to see the rest of that concert.
Thank you, I also look forward to this!

This is why she is Dimash's idol and he has taken so much from her. She is amazing.
Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳. Thank you for the great reaction to Lara Fabian. She is one of the best female vocalist in the world .
Suggestion for the next reaction: “ Je t’aimes “ Live in Paris 2001.
This is an emotional performance.
Broken Vow, Adagio, and You're Not From Here from the same "From Lara with Love" concert, are fantastic. The entire concert, actually.
🇨🇦 Lara writes, sings, produces and arranges most of her own concerts ! And she does this in French, Italian, Spanish and English as well as singing in about 8 or 9 other languages ! 🇨🇦
Thank you for reacting to my request. I love the way you mentioned how even though you are a vocal coach, Lara made you forget about the technical aspects of her performance and made you just feel her performance. I am not a vocal coach. I am a fan of Lara's because of the way she makes me forget my surroundings during each and every one of her performances and allows me to feel her performances. In my opinion, she may be the best female singer of all time. Please react to Lara's live performances of "Adagio" and "Broken Vow". I will link them with coffee purchases. Thanks again for your sincere and heartfelt reaction to Lara Fabian.
Thank you! It really does make me forget about any technical details that I'm usually paid to focus on, truly exeptional!
Great reaction to such an amazing performance! My favourite female singer for sure! Please react to more of Lara. All her songs are amazing!
Greetings from London 😀
I will definitely do more of Lara! Hi to London from London! 😀
@@FaanaMusic Great! Which part of London are you in?
@@FaanaMusic I recommend the following songs to react to. You're not from here, Adagio, Broken Vow, Caruso and Perdere l'amore. They are amazing like all her songs! 😀
Spectacular reaction my friend Faana!!...I'm glad you finally had the chance to react to Goddess Lara Fabian!!...She is one of the best singers in the world and that is why artists like Dimash have her as their idol...We hope to soon see other reactions to her incredible songs, but remember, always in LIVE versions, because that is when Lara is more spectacular!!....A big hug for you!!
There is another performance of this song from 2001, if I remember correctly, on TH-cam where she just sing the a capela part with the microphone in a large venue.
Perfect reaction the the greatest female voice on planet earth ! More please
I am happy to watch your reaction with your facial expression, especially your tears. I also liked those words you used to describe her performances. Bravo!
Thank you!
Discovered Lara decades back on some International Music show on a local TV station. Literally wore out my VHS tape of her performing 'Adagio.' For having watched countless reactions to her songs, found yours for 'Je Suis Malade' to be one of my faves. Perfect balance of emotion and observations of technique expressed in such a way as to be easily understood by, and relatable to, the casual listener. So many reactions lean very heavily one way or the other. Hopefully you'll consider checking out more Lara. Rest assured, you'll come away impressed every time.
Lara and Dimash, are the only 2 singers that goes into my soul. Thanks for the reaction. The song You are not from here, from the same concert, Lara with love, is my favorite song. Greetings from Spain🇪🇸
Na Lare ujizdim uz 25 let, pro me je naprosta jednicka. The Queen ! Thank you for the reaction.
Lara is magic, she can sing with emotions and make you feel her pain
Aside from that awesome voice... I've never seen/heard an artist convey the feelings of the song so honestly. This is true art. Now i have to subcribe
Haha, thanks for the sub. You're absolutely right, I have been stunned by how expressive she was!
Perfect reaction on the most perfect female singer!!!
And so many more songs to react on...

She is the best singer on Planet Earth! I love your reaction!!! ❤
Ogni tanto finalmente una analisi giusta su cosa significa saper "raccontare una storia e mandare un messaggio al pubblico". Saper trasmettere emozioni, coinvolgere, catturare l'attenzione di chi ti ascolta mentre sei su un palco..
E questo lo sa fare solo un grande artista, che si immedesima totalmente nel personaggio e nella storia con tutta la sua vulnerabilità e sensibilità.
E purtroppo questo si è perso da un po'. Recentemente i vari "cantanti" che vediamo emergere dai talent show pensano soltanto ad impressionare, a voler far vedere quanto sono bravi a "prendere una nota alta" in belting. Poi trascurano tutto il resto.. L'interpretazione, il voler e saper raccontare una storia, il coinvolgimento emotivo.. Quindi noi spettatori siamo ormai abituati a vedere questo.. Se un cantante "tocca una nota alta o no".. 😮. Se lo fa, il giorno dopo sui social è già considerato il migliore cantante al mondo... 😢
Ma questo non ti fa essere un grande cantante, un grande intérprete, un vero artista.
Un vero artista è quello che va sul palco ed è "sempre" capace di raccontare una storia e te la fa vivere.. Anche trascurando la tecnica, anche sembrando "tecnicamente scorretto" in alcuni passaggi. ... e.. aggiungo.. . Bisogna essere un Masterclass di bravura e talento per saperlo fare ...
In questa magnifica interpretazione Lara fa questo.. Non si preoccupa di come "suona la sua voce", non si preoccupa di apparire
" strana".. non si preoccupa di" far sentire il suono pesante del suo respiro".... (tecnicamente non si dovrebbe fare). Si prende il rischio addirittura di portare la sua voce al limite del crack, sembra che stia piangendo veramente.. Ma non è così.. È pienamente consapevole di quello che sta facendo.. Ma vuole trasmettere quello che sta provando dentro e quello che la canzone comporta... . È malata, sta male, non riesce a pensare e a respirare, non riesce ad andare avanti con la sua vita a causa del dolore che prova. E lo fa in maniera divina, surreale, perfetta!!!
Oggigiorno siamo così tanto abituati a vedere "Cover".
Viviamo di cover, ormai si è persa la voglia di scrivere canzoni proprie.. E, ci sarà un motivo per cui nessuno, e ribadisco nessuno, ha mai fatto una cover di questa interpretazione di Lara nella stessa maniera.. E il motivo è semplice.. Lara Fabian è una masterclass di intelligenza e di interpretazione canora.. È così camaleontica che riesce ad ogni canzone a immedesimarsi esattamente nel ruolo previsto. E se non hai una tecnica sopraffina, se non hai umiltà e sensibilità di animo, non lo puoi fare....
E capiamo poi perché qualcuno come Dimash o Diana Ankutinova siano stati influenzati dal suo modo di cantare. Entrambi quando vanno sul palco trasmettono emozioni e sensazioni forti, sanno raccontare una storia....
"Je suis malade , Requiem por on fou, Yentl medley, Dites moi pourquoi Je l'aime, Starmania medley, Adagio, Broken vow, You're not from here, Perdere l'amore, Caruso" ... rimangono a mio avviso il "Top di tecnica e interpretazione" che un cantante possa offrire..
I'm doing my best to "grow" right now.. To open my heart, be vulnerable and authentic...
People like you, who aren't afraid to remind us that we're meant to feel on a deep level and express it, even with the whole world watching...
You are shining a bright light my friend..
Thank you.. ❤🙏
🇨🇦 I sincerely endorse a recommendation below, and suggest you try reacting to "You're not from here" (which she wrote) ! And, by all means, discuss the technical aspects, because most of her fans on here are fully aware ! 🇨🇦
She is a legend. Your reaction is so genuine. Watching you makes me want to cry lol
The best live vocalist of all time. Please check out "Caruso" from the same concert ("restored version" for better sound).
There's a reason Lara is Dimash's idol.
Muy buena reacción, Lara es una gema única, con un talento extraordinario.
Love your reaction and insights! Please definitely more Lara! You will continue to be blown away again and again. Best singer on the planet!
Your nose started to be red when you started listen the song. That tells me you are very sensitive to others emotions. A good person.Loved your reaction.
Thank you, well observed.
A masterpiece ❤❤
The Queen of resonance, breath control, phrasing, the best composer and stories teller. ❤❤❤ That's why she's known as The Ring. Trained to be an Opera Singer for 10 years, but decided to compose and performe Pop songs. Fluently in 4 languages and has already sang in 12 languages perfectly. You should react to her singing Adagio 2 months ago with the Cellist Stjepan Hauser. She's currently 54 years, touring around the world and she has been also the vocal coach at The Voice France since 2005.
Every single song in this concert was AWESOME !! You can listen each of them hundred times...
many, many thanks from italy.
I recommend you a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she is a singer that transmits a lot when she sings and has incredible melismas. She is also very versatile when it comes to singing. She sings different musical styles. Best regards
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll put her on the list! 🙏
I love that you react with your heart first, then with your technical brain! Music should move you! ❤
🇨🇦 Secondly, your brain will be fried to learn that Lara did not write this song (Serge Lama did) but that even the composer said that Lara's was the Best version ! 🇨🇦
Not the composer (this is Alice Dona) but the lyrics writer and original performer Serge Lama, yes.
He invited her to sing the song in duet with him at one of his concerts, then sat on the front row and asked her to sing it again but alone.
Love Lara ❤️
Love from Denmark ❤️
I love your reaction and emotion. She's my angel of music, and every times i watch this song, i also cry...hihi
one of the most beautiful french song
PLEASE REACT LARA FABIAN - ADAGIO
Lara is an incredible vocalist. She's also a storyteller and an actress.
She’s a phenomenon This song doesn’t have a language, it’s either you feel it or you don’t!
There’s no such thing as vocal experts when it comes to Laura, she’s the expert of her own vocal sounds.
The Queen Lara fabian ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why France didn't choose Lara Fabian to open the Olympic Games in Paris
It's incomprehensible!
She actually did perform at the opening, with this very song (but with another French singer).
Just in front of the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral.
Look for it on TH-cam.
❤❤❤
Please react to Lara's Adagio!!
Merci pour ta super analyse sur Lara Fabian. Je te suggère un autre artiste Belge, qui vivait en France : Jacques Brel : Ne me quitte pas (émotion garanti)
I love watching Lara wreck people like she has me. Thanks for your honest reaction
❤❤🎉
Will you please react to Lara Fabian & Mario Frangoulis cover of Cole Porters So in Love from Kiss Me Kate? I would love to see your thoughts. Mario also have an amazing voice and is classically trained and has a beautiful cover of Knights in White Satin in Italian! Also to hear Lara Fabian's lyrical soprano side you need to listen to La Traviata!
Thank you for this one it sounds intriguing. I have a different one by Lara coming out this week - her song called "Broken Vow"
If you haven't already, please react to her live performance of "Caruso," it is outstanding as well.
I recommend you to check "Adagio"; "Broken vow", "Perdere l'amore", "Caruso", "You are not from here", "Requiem pour un fou ft. Johnny Hallydey", "Je t'aime encore", "Mademoiselle hyde", "i guess i loved you" all live
🇨🇦
🇧🇪
L amour please the live version
Please listen ti requiem pour un fou great drama i.m a Canadian soprano living in Italy from Pavarotti school i am on you tube thank you for your reaction ❤
En ANglais( ADAGIO) En Italien (CARUSO )&(PERDER L AMORE) EN FRANÇAIS (JE T AIME) MERCI ,BONJOUR DE FRANCE ❤
Listen to Forestella’s Je Suis Malade. Its a quartet version!
Lara Fabian is a singing legend, but unfortunately her prime was outside of the United States, and before TH-cam became popular for sharing amazing talent. However, her talent has inspired many superstars over the years. Dimash counts her as one of his idols as he was growing into his own talent over the past 2 decades. There's a reason he covers so many of Lara's songs and sang several duets with her, even at the end of her career. They have much in common. They both worked with Igor Krutoy, are both super humble and lovable, can both sing with amazing emotion, are multi-lingual, etc....
They have not sang any duets together. Those videos create the effect by splicing their own performances together. The only time they sang together was Ti Amo Cosi.
👍✅🇨🇵
@ericsicard910 merci d'avoir rendu à César ce qui lui appartient 🙂 I would just add a link to the original version done by Serge Lama, because, and sadly, people usually will stay on Lara's cover (which is great btw) ! th-cam.com/video/pl2UKR4auf8/w-d-xo.html
There are great vocalists, then there is something different, Lara Fabian is different.
Hi, may I suggest you to listen to the young British singer Lucy Thomas? She is 20 years old now. Recorded 5 studio albums. Her first solo concert took place in march in Manchester. In September she performes in Tokyo. In October there will be a concert at the famous theatre in London. There about 70 videos on her TH-cam channel LucyThomasMusic. She has an amazing voice. You won't be disappointed. Her last song is Unchained Melody. It's something unreal.
Very moving reaction! Thank you.
There's a superb trio performance of Lara singing with Dimash and Aida, with Igor Krutoy on piano - "Ti Amo Cosi". th-cam.com/video/XaQFfqC3lnU/w-d-xo.html
It's live, over a skating rink, with skaters performing, too. What's most impressive of this trio is just how generous they are with each other on this stage. But hold on for the final note!
One of Dimash's mentors
It is time to react to Dimash.
Why do you stop!! Ooohh.. you miss the emotion.. what a shame..
