    Lara was facing hard times , both on the personal (health, love betrayal and breakup) and professional (her progress blocked in the US by her own record company) sides.
    Her fanbase knew most of it and wanted to show support and they used this song, one of her biggest hits in France, replacing the title” Je t’aime / I love you” by “On t’aime / We love you”.
    I love how Lara, after the initial surprise, establishes a beautiful dialog with the crowd, giving them room to sing with her.
    It shows how benevolent and humble she is.
    The song itself is a gem, it was as I said one of her songs that reached the top 10 in France charts. But it even grew bigger after it and has become now a french classic, her most iconic french song. It is still attracting a lot of covers from the young french and canadian vocalists generation (Amir, Jeck, …). Most frenchmen know the song by heart.
    Surprisingly, it was also a massive success in russia and eastern europe: she became a superstar there thanks to it (and 15 years before her lengthy collaboration with Igor Krutoy that extended this even further) and the song is a MUST in Russian karaoke and a recurrent in russian singer contests.
    Again many covers of this songs from eastern europe talents: Polina Gagarina, Sevara Nazarkhan, Katerina Maslova, Natalia Tsarikova, …
    As always with her biggest hits, Lara has performed it in many different ways:
    • Intense and powerful at World Music Awards 1999,
    • Subtle and delicate in her En Toute Intimité 2003 tour.
    • Classy and moving, performing with 2 vertebrae broken, at Royal Albert Hall in London (2011)
    • Jazzy in a recent perf (2018) with a band from Quebec
    The lyrics are also mesmerizing. Despite the title, it is not a classic love song but a breakup song instead.
    “Je t’aime” was written by Lara Fabian and Rick Allison, her longtime music producer and composer. He also had been her boyfriend for a few years, at the start of her career. This song was written when their love evolved to a friendship and a professional relationship . It speaks about a couple splitting while still having a lot of sentiments one for the other.

    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. The second “Je t’ai cherché”(I looked for you) was released early october 2024, another success! Her album has just been released on Nov 29 and it’s a masterpiece, packed with gems.
    Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.

    Now that you have heard her in French, I would suggest "Caruso" in Italian or "Quedate" in Spanish or "Adagio" in English ! 🇨🇦

    En effet, merveilleux et émerveillant - au point qu'on a envie de chialer rien qu'en voyant cette petite vidéo ! 🥲 Personellement, je ne la connais pas beaucoup, et encore moins cette chanson en particulier, seulement une ou deux autres plus récentes… - Juste un petit truc concernant son nom de famille : c'est pas un e nasal comme dans "vin" ou "Main" (le fleuve 😉), mais un a nasal comme dans "dans" ou "dent"…

    Lara Fabian ist einfach unbeschreiblich toll, ihre Ausdrucksstärke in ihrer Stimme und mit ihrem Körper, sie lebt jeden einzelnen ihrer Songs mit Leib und Seele. Das wichtigste ist immer bei ihren Clips, sie bis zum Ende zu sehen, da kommen immer so tolle Reaktionen, da sieht man auch wie sehr in dem Song eingetaucht ist. Wenn sie ganz zuletzt ein tiefen Seufzer (Adagio)macht, oder bei (Je suis malade) wo sie nach dem Song noch gar nicht auf der Erde angekommen ist, hier bei (Je t´aime) fehlt auch noch ein Stück, wo sie mit dem Publikum interagiert. Mach doch bitte mal ihr Meisterstück, von dem es viele Coverversionen gibt. Lara Fabian Adagio, am besten diese Live- Version th-cam.com/video/jKtNuLG5jAo/w-d-xo.html

    Lara Fabian is such a wonderful person. Not only a extraordinary singer but also as a person. Have you seen the young version of Lara yet? Her name is Emma Kok, she's Dutch and blew away the crowd last year with her performance of 'Voilá'. She got her chance to shine on stage with André Rieu and didn't disappoint. She just poured her giant heart out and left the crowd in tears and joy. Please take a look at the whole official video! It's fantastic.

    Ihr ist das Beste passiert was einer Sängerin passieren kann. Floor Jansen hat auch mal ein Lied von Ihr gecovert, und da sie nur Lieder singt bei denen sie was fühlt bedeute dieses Lied etwas für sie selbst. th-cam.com/video/KZRHLLM6AU4/w-d-xo.html
