Very cool! You're the very first reactor I've seen that correctly interpreted the meaning of the lyrics from the get-go! If you look in the description box of the video, you will find Sharon Vaughn's 2nd verse, that is not sung in this (or any further) performance. The theme of transportation to another time/space/world (or by extension, a reincarnation) is a common one in "Sword & Sorcery" fiction. While many commenters are certainly welcome to their OPINION that this a migration themed lyric, the inclusion of the 2nd verse refutes this notion, clearly and concretely. *And, yes, "New Wave" is a showcase for young talent established by the famous composer/arranger/promoter, Igor Krutoy (at the piano here). As a guest artist, Dimash performed 4 (? check on that) songs of wonderful diversity and, as usual, different character. The reason for the dripping sweat in "Stranger" is, he had just performed "Your Love" in the same outfit, and it's quite a demanding tune... not that "Stranger" isn't! 😲😲😲 Ps. Your mom is going to love Dimash for his emotive storytelling skills, maybe try her out (and yourself as well) on "I Miss You" - official MV, another really engaging collab with Igor, shot in black and white that most reactors completely miss.😕🤔 The only problem with the vid is that it's too durn short! Once those drums kick in on the chorus and the swoosh of the groove asserts itself, I'd just like it to go on for about another 15 minutes!! 😆😉 Hope you're having fun doing the reactor thing and please continue with more of the exceptional/consummate musician that is Dimash...👍👍 (I Miss You mv with English subs link): ruclips.net/video/f2OVFVK1mME/видео.htmlfeature=shared
@OzonePete-j3f Thanks so much. I watch a lot of TV shows and movies that deal with the supernatural so when he started with the lyrics he did plus the portal I immediately thought of that kind of story. Excellent performance and a great song, glad you enjoyed the reaction
"Stranger" is not about reincarnation and has nothing to do with Dimash himself. The second verse by Sharon Vaughn, although it was never used and cannot be found in most lyrical text of "Stranger", lines like "I must have carried long ago," and the entire verse ALSO points to the refugees being haunted by their ancestors. Those ancient ancestors most likely roamed the areas to where the refugees are being sent. I suppose only those of us who deeply understand Dimash's symbolism can interpret the true meaning. Thank you for your opinion.
@@petesmith5500 Thanks for yours as well. 🤗 Being a "lyric guy" , I stand by my interpretation, just as you are certainly welcome to yours. (I really wouldn't back-handedly impugn that I haven't an eye/ear for symbolism or haven't the understanding/empathy for "true meaning" of a poetic endeavor. IMO 😉, an unnecessary addendum to your thoughtful comment; but no harm done.)
@OzonePete-j3f Exactly. I saw the lyrics. People don't have to believe in reincarnation to relate to a character in a story. Just like Dimash doesn't have to drink, or trash hotel rooms to playfully sing about it!😂
With this song, you just wet your fingertips in the ocean under the name Dimash... React further to it and millions of Dimash fans will simply blow up your channel with hundreds of thousands of views and subscriptions. Dimash sings from classical to rap, he is full of surprises, have a good swim in this vast Ocean of pleasures. Do you remember the Diva song from The Fifth Element, a movie with Bruce Willis? In this film, the song of the alien Diva was made half with the voice of an opera singer, and half synthesized on a computer to show an alien voice so that human capabilities could not cover the range and jumps of this song, and so: Dimash sang it calmly, which proves that Dimash is an alien. When heard Dimash sing, I thought that he was not human. When heard what he said in an interview, realized that Dimash is more of a human than all of Us.
This was the first performance of Stranger. It was at a yearly music festival and young singer competition at the New Wave hall in Sochi, Russia. Dimash was not competing but was bringing his pro skills to promote the festival and help it draw a bigger audience. Igor Krutoy composed the song with the help of a small team of arrangers and a lyricist. He is involved in the show every year, so he was able to help clear a time slot and set work. And play the piano.
@martinhafner2201 Yeah, I didn't think he was a participant lol. Not much point in it continuing if that was the case 😆. The set just looked like some type of talent show.
Gracias gracias por tu comentario sigue escuchando a DIMASH puede cantar en 15 idiomas su rango vocal es un GO a D8 sus canciones Kazajas y los instrumentos son maravillosos cada interpretación es una locura tiene 30 años y 25 años de estudios te recomiendo Hello de Lionel Richie por DIMASH desde Argentina saludos
Did Dimash do a version of hello by Lionel or were you just saying to react to the original? Either way that's something I'll definitely do as I am familiar with that song, thanks
New wave is a talent show for young performers but Dimash is a judge at the event, but Dimash performed three new songs, all very different. Stranger, Fly Away and Ave Maria. The pianist is Igor Krutoy who composed the song especially for Dimash as well as several others. The kobyz player is the best in Kazakhstan and Dimash usually has him at his concerts. The song can have many interpretations for eg immigrants arriving in a new land.
Dear friend! Thanks for your reaction! Every Dimash's song is a masterpiece!!! Please, heare SOS 2021, Olimpico, AVE MARIA, klips Be with me, I've got you and others. Greetings from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿!
Funny how you concentrated on all the girls there instead of how unbelievably he held that last note. I’ve never heard anyone not be amazed and comment on it. Thanks for the reaction Dimash is amazing
Dimash's madness jumps out at you with great purpose!.. the story is told by the lyrics.. which hold the key. In my opinion Dimash is a prophet.. whose true destiny has yet to be revealed. Dimash offers a message with many songs he sings.. he mourns death.. and the destruction of human life. His way of speaking to humanity rings the bells in the sky. Take him for what you feel in your heart.. believe what you feel for you are not alone.. there are many who do. His heart aches with compassion.. the scars of war and the desolation of humankind have endured long enough. Grace has been born within him and grows… like a brewing storm. (While there are different interpretations of Dimash Qudaibergen's "Stranger".. the following is that of Pete Smith.) "Stranger" was released by Dimash during the beginning of the evacuation of Afghanistan and then is also appropriate for Ukraine and the Gaza Strip. In consideration of Dimash’s birthplace and current residence, and the timely release of "Stranger," it took much courage for Dimash and Igor to perform this epic song. At the beginning, the swirling fingerprint behind Dimash denotes a very personal and epic human experience.. this is about people. If you put one of these displaced people in Dimash's place as singing these words, it all becomes unmistakably clear. If I were leaving Afghanistan, or if I were anyone forcibly evicted from my beloved homeland, and having to begin my life all over again, if I have the strength, I would want Dimash to sing this to the world for me. He portrays them wandering bewilderedly to a new land and feeling haunting memories of their ancestors who had been there before. You can taste the diverse ethnicities of these displaced people with his voice and the complex variations of their cultures with his four part melisma representing the desolation of men, women, children and babies. How right on and how affective this is.. you can almost hear them crying. He has a way of making a hard point.. in a very magnificently poignant manner. Dimash and Igor at the piano and composer as well, are one of a kind, and there may not be others like them in a thousand years.. or perhaps never. Thank you!.. great reaction.
He is so awesome, isn’t he? Stranger is one of my absolute favorite songs. I get goosebumps every time I hear it. I love these mythical sounds. You will immediately be transported into an oriental adventure film. The instrument used here is the Qobyz and it was a great idea by Dimash to use that here. The Qobyz is a very old two stringed Kazakh folk instrument and it’s wide spread among Kazakhs. The man who often is playing the Qobyz in Dimash’s performance (also here in Stranger) is the best on this instrument and a good friend of Dimash. His name is Olzhas Qurmanbek. You often can hear this instrument when Dimash sings in his native tongue like Samaltau, Qairan Elim or Òmir Òter. In the end of Stranger he introduced him to the audience and he thanked them. As a Kazakh he speaks Kazakh and Russian fluently. He sang Stranger for the first time at New Wave in Sochi, Russia in 2021. This is an international competition for young artists, founded in 2002 by Igor Krutoy. Dimash sang here as a guest and was also a member of the jury. Igor Krutoy, like so many other masterpieces, wrote this song specifically for Dimash and his incredible vocal range (in this song alone he sings 5 octaves F1-F6 I think). And the last note he held for 20 seconds. The way he switchs so affortlessly between the different registers and octaves in one song is so mesmerizing and unbelievable. As already mentioned before, Stranger was written by the famous Russian/Ukrainian composer, producer and songwriter Igor Krutoy. His and Dimash's collaboration created true masterpieces. He writes songs that only Dimash could sing with his vocal range, such as Olimpico, Stranger or Ave Maria. You’ll often see him accompanying Dimash on the piano. If Igor Krutoy is there, the song was also written by him. The two have no contract. Their cooperation is based more on mutual trust. It’s more like a father/son relationship. I agree with you that this song is about reincarnation. What many don’t know is that Sharon Vaughn wrote a second verse for Stranger, though Dimash didn’t sing it during the New Wave performance. You can find them on his YT channel in Russian. I got the translation from a Dear. Thanks for that: New ground Far as I can see New ground Underneath my feet Stranger in a stranger‘s land New chance to know who I am If I have the strength To begin again Somewhere in my heart In ancient times, I wandered Through these valleys, I’ve climbed among these hills Faces from a past I’m haunted by their mem’ries Lives and loves I’ve lost I feel them in me still New ground Far as I can see New ground Underneath my feet Stranger in a stranger’s land New chance to know who I am If I have the strength To begin again Melodies I’ve never heard I now am singing The feel of swords I must have carried long ago Fire was branded on my skin Though there’s no scarring Burning in my blood The distant spirits flow New ground… Greetings and love from Germany👋❤️
"Stranger" is not about reincarnation and has nothing to do with Dimash himself. The second verse by Sharon Vaughn, although it was never used and cannot be found in most lyrical text of "Stranger", lines like "I must have carried long ago," and the entire verse ALSO points to the refugees being haunted by their ancestors.

Thank you for your opinion.
@petesmith5500 I wasn't saying he was reincarnated I was saying he was a supernatural entity maybe. Either way it was a great song and performance and it's just my take and guess
👉That is the premiere of “Stranger” at the New Wave in 2021 (International competition for young performers of popular music, founded in 2002 by Russian composer and music titan Igor Krutoy and Latvian pianist and composer Raimonds Pauls, and later expanded by Russian superstar Alla Pugacheva. Dimash has been invited several times since 2018 as a guest and as a juror). Maestro Igor Krutoy and Dimash Qudaibergen have created the really unique song in English with enchanting oriental melodies. “It was Dimash’s talent that inspired me to write this song, his immense vocal abilities and his desire to sing for a large international audience... I don’t see anyone else who could perform this piece in such a way”. - Krutoy said. (dimashnews) A Dear hits the nail on the head with this statement: “These are the voices of the world singing the tragedy of human migration forced by tragic circumstances.” At the piano Igor Krutoy (Krutoy means 'Cool', *1954 in Ukraine SSR). He lives and works in Moscow/ Russia. He is singer, a world- famous composer and music titan in Russia (billionaire). His family is in the US now. Krutoy came out of retirement to write songs for Dimash. The maestro and Dimash have been working together from time to time since 2018. They are friends and have a father-son relationship. Dimash said also in an interview about the collaboration with Igor Krutoy that it is important to him that the songs are written in such a way that there is room for variations ... so every performance of a song is a surprise and every Dear can choose his favorite presentation... I can not decide. The lyrics were written by Mary Sharon Vaughn (*1947, American musician, songwriter and producer. She writes hits for famous singers around the world, including Lara Fabian) - At the end of the video, Dimash explains his breathing technique: ruclips.net/video/STqrz1E2WV8/видео.html * Premiere at the New Wave 2021 (Russia): Stranger - ruclips.net/video/lFsB5HVnmSA/видео.html * Here, the often forgotten unique, spectacular, different version in China: Stranger - Shine!

@@RapItUp41 I just want to add that Dimash Qudaibergen has being rated by many people (including my self) as the best singer in the world. He is a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. He is university-trained in classical as well as contemporary music. Dimash is a tenor altino. His vocal range covers (E2 to D8) six octaves. He speaks Kazakh and Russian fluently and some english, also has performed songs in 12 languages. I have some songs that you can to react in different videos.

It definitely was and still is a horror story for those people Dimash is singing about.. this performance was not a competition, there is no music video, and the pianist is the famous composer Igor Krutoy. Thank you.
Dimash was there as judge and did also 3 completely different performances. The man on the piano, Igor Krutoy, is a very big russian composer. He wrote some songs for Dimash.
I just found you and watched all your Dimash videos subscribed and liked everything . You’re a really good reactor and insightful, but you must go back if you talk and stop your video. Go back a few seconds so your viewer and you don’t many any of dimashs techniques.
WOW, thank you so much for those kind words and for the sub of course. Yes, I usually try to skip back to before I paused but I definitely forget to a lot as well. I myself get annoyed when I watch other reactors and they don't go back, and you miss a few words in between (specially for rap which is what I mainly watch reactions to). It's all a process and I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Comments like this make me eager to continue giving my takes on things

If you look in the description box of the video, you will find Sharon Vaughn's 2nd verse, that is not sung in this (or any further) performance.

😂 Of course!
Dimash has a soft spot in his heart for the plight of immigrants. The UN asked him to be a Good Will Ambassador in the area of immigration. ❤🎉❤
Dimash's madness jumps out at you with great purpose!.. the story is told by the lyrics.. which hold the key. In my opinion Dimash is a prophet.. whose true destiny has yet to be revealed.
Dimash offers a message with many songs he sings.. he mourns death.. and the destruction of human life. His way of speaking to humanity rings the bells in the sky. Take him for what you feel in your heart.. believe what you feel for you are not alone.. there are many who do. His heart aches with compassion.. the scars of war and the desolation of humankind have endured long enough. Grace has been born within him and grows… like a brewing storm.
(While there are different interpretations of Dimash Qudaibergen's "Stranger".. the following is that of Pete Smith.)
"Stranger" was released by Dimash during the beginning of the evacuation of Afghanistan and then is also appropriate for Ukraine and the Gaza Strip. In consideration of Dimash’s birthplace and current residence, and the timely release of "Stranger," it took much courage for Dimash and Igor to perform this epic song.

New ground
Far as I can see
New ground
Underneath my feet
Stranger in a stranger‘s land
New chance to know who I am
If I have the strength
To begin again
Somewhere in my heart
In ancient times, I wandered
Through these valleys,
I’ve climbed among these hills
Faces from a past
I’m haunted by their mem’ries
Lives and loves I’ve lost
I feel them in me still
New ground
Far as I can see
New ground
Underneath my feet
Stranger in a stranger’s land
New chance to know who I am
If I have the strength
To begin again
Melodies I’ve never heard
I now am singing
The feel of swords
I must have carried long ago
Fire was branded on my skin
Though there’s no scarring
Burning in my blood
The distant spirits flow
New ground…
Greetings and love from Germany👋❤️

EL MEJOR CANTANTE DEL MUNDO!!!!
👉That is the premiere of “Stranger” at the New Wave in 2021 (International competition for young performers of popular music, founded in 2002 by Russian composer and music titan Igor Krutoy and Latvian pianist and composer Raimonds Pauls, and later expanded by Russian superstar Alla Pugacheva. Dimash has been invited several times since 2018 as a guest and as a juror).
Maestro Igor Krutoy and Dimash Qudaibergen have created the really unique song in English with enchanting oriental melodies. “It was Dimash’s talent that inspired me to write this song, his immense vocal abilities and his desire to sing for a large international audience... I don’t see anyone else who could perform this piece in such a way”. - Krutoy said. (dimashnews)
A Dear hits the nail on the head with this statement: “These are the voices of the world singing the tragedy of human migration forced by tragic circumstances.”
At the piano Igor Krutoy (Krutoy means 'Cool', *1954 in Ukraine SSR). He lives and works in Moscow/ Russia. He is singer, a world- famous composer and music titan in Russia (billionaire). His family is in the US now. Krutoy came out of retirement to write songs for Dimash. The maestro and Dimash have been working together from time to time since 2018. They are friends and have a father-son relationship.
Dimash said also in an interview about the collaboration with Igor Krutoy that it is important to him that the songs are written in such a way that there is room for variations ... so every performance of a song is a surprise and every Dear can choose his favorite presentation... I can not decide.
The lyrics were written by Mary Sharon Vaughn (*1947, American musician, songwriter and producer. She writes hits for famous singers around the world, including Lara Fabian)

@@RapItUp41 I just want to add that Dimash Qudaibergen has being rated by many people (including my self) as the best singer in the world.
He is a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. He is university-trained in classical as well as contemporary music. Dimash is a tenor altino. His vocal range covers (E2 to D8) six octaves. He speaks Kazakh and Russian fluently and some english, also has performed songs in 12 languages.
I have some songs that you can to react in different videos.

It definitely was and still is a horror story for those people Dimash is singing about.. this performance was not a competition, there is no music video, and the pianist is the famous composer Igor Krutoy. Thank you.
Loved your reaction. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
@sonycarrd thanks so much, really enjoying the Dimash journey. I have about 4 or 5 reactions to him up.
Dimash was there as judge and did also 3 completely different performances. The man on the piano, Igor Krutoy, is a very big russian composer. He wrote some songs for Dimash.
Ok yeah, wouldn't think he would be a contestant lol. If that was the case all the others would have run out crying 😢.
@@RapItUp41 I would. 😀
It isnot a talent show,he is a Professional 😮😊
@@Yapaulare I didn't say he was a part of it, I said the set looks like a talent show
It is a competition for young musicians.
I just found you and watched all your Dimash videos subscribed and liked everything
. You’re a really good reactor and insightful, but you must go back if you talk and stop your video. Go back a few seconds so your viewer and you don’t many any of dimashs techniques.
WOW, thank you so much for those kind words and for the sub of course. Yes, I usually try to skip back to before I paused but I definitely forget to a lot as well. I myself get annoyed when I watch other reactors and they don't go back, and you miss a few words in between (specially for rap which is what I mainly watch reactions to). It's all a process and I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Comments like this make me eager to continue giving my takes on things

Whether or not it was intentional to be in such synchronization with the crisis in Afghanistan is beyond me 🤔🇦🇫
Maybe it’s further proof he’s from another world 🪐 with ⏰ travel
Matching the music too events‼️
❤️2U&ALLU❤️🦌🦌💫🌎🕊️

The portal background is what made me think he was from another world maybe lol. Either way excellent performance and if it was related to real events going on then its even deeper. Yeah it looked like a talent show or something lol
Yes 🇺🇸 flee from Afghanistan 😂😂😂
@@RapItUp41😂😂😂😂 he is from another galaxy .he is wonderful and respectful artist , Dimash .thank you for your reaction . peace from Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
@SawsanYasen-nu5vo no problem, really enjoyed this one
@@RapItUp41 indeed 👍👍
This song is all about Immigration. The Lyrics, the swirled large fingerprint behind him as he starts to sing. Identifying words and symbols.
There is a second verse.
