Now you get it... other worldly huh? No matter which language she sings in, it is always unbelievable! Lara Fabian should never be compared to anyone... they should be compared to her... no one I have ever heard can compare!
What always surprises me from LARA are her Lives She is always better [almost impossible to believe...] Better than in a studio recording... Yes, in my humble opinion, She is the Greatest Voice from all times!!
This woman Lara Fabian is a Goddess of singing 🎤💫 / Madonna, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, others.... maybe richer in funds 💰but could NEVER EQUAL LARA IN VOICE 🎤🙏🏽
When Lara Fabian was first making her breakthrough in Europe, The North American market was completely overrun with Diva's. There was Celine, Mariah Carey, Cher, Whitney and about six or seven others. Then, throw in the Nashville crossovers like Shania Twain, The big fat girl and her mother and a few more from that side, all scratching and clawing for the same CD and concert dollar. I believe it was a calculated, deliberate and very smart decision not to pursue the North American market at that time. Lara left them to fight over North America while she conquered the rest of the world. And she ended up all the better for it. She doesn't have to use "auto tune" or lip sync to her own recorded music, flashy gowns and video backgrounds or pyrotechnics. She has, hands down, the greatest voice in history ! And, that's not just my own opinion, "it's a fact"! And she is drop dead gorgeous ! May she sing forever !
Everything you said resonated with my own feelings from seeing her performances.Pursuing an independent path was fraught with difficulties but thank the Lord she was forced to leave North America. Hard to say if she has the greatest voice, but many of her performances have proved to be unrepeatable by other singers. She is also a great performer as well as singer. She doesn't try to do "dances" to express her songs but her remarkable arm and hand gestures as well as her facial expressions result in more expressive performances than most of her contemporaries. I would add that, unlike most of the singers to who she is commonly compared ( e.g. Celine) she writes the lyrics and often the tunes of the original songs she sings. Therefore, one could truly say that she is her music and her music is her.
Wow... I am so glad and happy reading your comment... I hope, that LARA will find, one of these days, I hope she will read our opinions... I've discovered LARA in '98, and since then, I can't stop loving and adoring her voice, In France, I said, many times, SHE IS THE GREATEST EVER... But, the media in France 🇫🇷 decided to crucify her, even when she conquered Eastern Europe with her album 'Mademoiselle Zhivago', in France, they've ignored this album and everything related to it... Luckily LARA has conquered already something far more important: Our hearts 💕 Thank you Very much for such a beautiful comment 💯✌
The look on your face was just like mine and anybody else I get to listen to this. I wept when I heard this the second time. Lara Fabian is above and beyond anybody else today.
now i see why she was not made for popular music. SHE's made for supreme art, for unique music / She's an artist and she masters her art like no one else
Dude you dont even realize how happy I am that ypure actually listening to true singers. Lara Fabian is the greatest singer I've ever heard. Her music is so amazing and emotional. I have sooo much of her music. She makes me happy.
@@bmc1410 Celine will never be able to sing this song like her. Maybe she will do a version of it, maybe will the same better like this, but will never beat this. Lara like Houston, Carey and Dion is untachable.
Can we also talk about the insanely beautiful melodies she writes? I've never heard such intense and complex melodies, they are the perfect compliment to her voice.
@@Love_Lara I feel like every melody line I've ever written is so pedestrian, lol. But seriously, I wish I had discovered her in the '90's, she should've been part of the great women who influenced me. For the last year and half she's pretty much all I listen to, and I can't get over her melodies.
@@elizabethwhite1068 Oh! I've been in for three years. I am addicted ! I was hoping I would get tired ... (I do not have enough free time) I am enchanted .... !!!
FOR ALWAYS [composed by John WILLIAMS] that song, and LARA's performance is so BRILLIANT Never listened another voice as perfect, and FOR ALWAYS goes BEYOND perfection, mainly thanks to LARA's performance....
Glad you found Lara, I have been a fan of hers for about 18 years.....she sings with such emotion and humility all at the same time........wish more people these days understood and appreciated music like this......Lara's voice is so big she needs to have a huge orchestra to back it all up........try to find that in most singers today.........she is not only a singer, she is a musical perfectionist, and makes it look so easy......
Mostly, LARA sings her own music or, co-writing-creating-composing with others, but, YES, her voice is unique, and, her music is original 98% created by her... And, is not only the perfection in her Technic, it is also the charge of emotions she brings Us with every song, keeping a perfect balance between Emotions and Technic.... For me, she is the most perfect singer from all times...
She is incredibly trained, including classical training . I read that she went to a prestigious music conservatory from age 8-18. She also wrote all her own music.
Nothing incredible to be honest. Classical training gives her most of this sound and long and high notes. Her style is very close to classical, change position a little and here it is. And of course her own colors of voice, her feeling of music, taste and acting
Yes, She began her musical education at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels at 8 in 1978. She studied lyric singing there for ten years, while starting to write songs.
I am a massive Lara fan. She is unique. She's one of the few singers who can make me cry. she sings and writes from the heart, and feels every word emotionally. I become transfixed. My emotions flow like an ocean of soothing waves to my soul. Celine is nowhere near not even close. Beauty and a special magic no one else has.
Celine Dion is in the league of her own. No need for uncalled for, unnecessary subjective comparison. And this video does not have anything to do with Celine. Both are incredibly talented and sweet.
@Acting Music Sports It is just mu opinion friend. Only Lara has the power to have sech an emotional impact on me.. But it's not just me who compare Celine and Lara against each other. Ceiine has a great vo
@Acting Music Sports It is just my opinion, and i guess many will agree comparing Lara and Celine. Maybe it's because Celine is better known,But Celine doesn't do it for me. Only Lara can affect me so emotionally, she has a far better voice by far.As for Witney, She is different all together and in a class of her own .Thank you for your opinion.
@Acting Music Sports Hi. No doubt Celine is a great talent, along with the likes of Witney and a few others. I thought they could not be beaten, then I discovered Lara, and she blew my mind and my emotions like no other.When I wrote the original comment. I'd only just discovered Lara, and guessed many where still unaware and put Celine at the top of the list, but now Celine was not the only one to rile. Yes I agree, there is room for both of them, perhaps I shouldn't have made the comparison, but I was totaly blown away by Lara, and thought perhaps others would the same.I do see both singers as similar with strong voices. It is just an opinion I found Lara at the time much more emotional for me, affecting my emotions. I never meant to cause any disagreement, but we all have our opinions, I know you mean well and are probably right.You sound a very nice person I respect your comment and wish you well. Thank you. Stay safe.
@Acting Music Sports Hi my friend. Yes they rule supreme. and like you say. there are others, some yet to be discovered. I saw a young girl singing Lara's songs on the street in Nottingham Uk.She was incredible. I was surprised how such a young girl could sing Lara's songs. Incidentally, I bought Celines French album yesterday, one of my all time favorites. I love Whitney too. Yes it's great to have a respectful debate without falling out. You must be a good person. I thank you for your comments.I'm not always right, but I write what I feel, I am a writer. I just hope I never upset anyone. Great to meet you. take good care. Best wishes. Pete.
I just love how you just stared in awe with your mouth open. I hate when she's equated with other singers. She is the gift within the gift. (It's not of any consequence but she pronounces her name lah-rah.) I'm so grateful to have such an authentic artist in my lifetime. Love your reviews. Great taste in all genre's.
ps, I didn't mean that she shouldn't be compared to other singers, but I've heard too many American's say that she sounds like Celine Dion. If only those that do that understood the work that Lara goes thru to maintain and keep that magnificent instrument at to peak for to maintain that range and belt. She lost hearing in her left ear because a technician f'd up the pitch and volume in the left ear bud. To this day you can see her reaching to her left ear continuously trying to adjust it thru out songs and shows. I wish that most Americans would explore other genre's and not let themselves to be force fed the top pop/rap and country. There's some great music out there but there is so much more than what the record label's push on artists to make $$$$
I was speechless too last week when I heard it for the first time, I’ve been listening to it everyday at least 10 times a day. WOWSERS LARA is INCREDIBLE & Brilliant No 1 vocalists in my ears. 🙏🏼💃🏻😃💝BLESSED. 🙏🏼 my favourite song
She sings incredible, she puts her soul when she sings, Lara is the most singer that I listened and I say that she is the betters because se express a real feeeling, she sings with her heart and she made her a wonderful woman.
She is an incredible singer and an equally incredible songwriter. She has the best kind of beauty- that radiates from within and shines through. I know very little French and Italian. I understand Portuguese a bit more as my best friend is Brazilian; but Lara Fabian is one of those rare artists that can reach people's hearts and touch them, even if they don't understand the words, their heart understands, or their soul does- either case, the message is received and felt. My all-time favorite singer (May she rest in peace) was one of those artists (and a personal friend of mine for many years) for millions of people around the world (there are others)-- but my favorite diva, while doing a concert in an outdoor amphitheater, held out a big note while she slowly lowered the microphone to the floor- gradually her voice faded from the speaker system and her own natural voice FILLED the amphitheater. When she let go of the note, she seemed a little lost, almost frightened... by the silence. Not a sound. Then, someone started clapping, and more people began to clap, and and more and more, until the entire theater was on their feet cheering and clapping, and screaming and whistling. I turned to my friend and asked her, "Did that really just happen?" and she said, "YES". That singer filled an OUTDOOR amphitheater with her natural voice powered by her own lungs, without the use of the amplifier and speakers. That singer was Donna Summer. Lara Fabian can touch your heart and move people to tears and give them hope... Donna Summer could reach out and touch your soul, lift you to your feet and make you dance. This is POWER. It's magic. It's a gift. Lara Fabian is one of the greatest singers of our time. She may not have hits in America like Rhianna or ... okay, Shakira (I personally don't care for Shakira's voice when she sings in English-- but I LOVE her songs in Spanish, and I only understand a little Spanish...) but nonetheless, Lara Fabian is magical and her gifts are real and they matter. It's unfortunate that Americans aren't a little more international like much of the rest of the world, where a second language is required in school. Around the time of Lara's first English album, I played a few songs for a friend who is a trained opera singer and has a degree in music. He was amazed... then he said, 'There's no way she could sing like that live"... so I played the LIVE recordings and his jaw dropped to the floor. AMAZING
Her voice, her charachter , her point of view .... Everything of her are just amazing for me😍 And yes she is so special for me 😄 I'm "lover" of this angel since my 6 years old U'm proud of that😍😍😍 And her new english album aka Camouflage is coming soon😍 I hope you'll be able to react to song from this new album as soon as possible😊❤👌
This is what a diva looks like and sings like... Nobody this days can even get close to her whole value as an artist. Most of the so called divas just get less and less dressed on stange just because they have to offer a show for the eyes and nothing more. Lara is the best, she delivers the whole packege, emotions, voice, and such a beautifull look 😍
It is fun watching you fall in love with Lara Fabian.... This was my first experience with Lara.... the same album... there is no other that I have ever topped her... not Celine, not Barbra.... they are both the best...but Lara out sings them I promise... I discovered this album... six years ago and I was hooked... she made me forget everyone else.. you have so many songs to hear...It is truly a great ride... enjoy!
This happened to me two years ago. I happened to find this concert in youtube. I was shocked ..! Lara has shifted from my heart all my beloved singers Barbara, withni, Celin, Mariah.... Unbelievable magic of the voice and incredible emotion of the performances! She changed my idea of singing. I can not stop listening to her ... I'm addicted to this voice and this woman ...
Hi, Frank I've been watching this acoustic concert until now.. ruclips.net/video/iJd4Axw_R9Q/видео.html No back vocals, only piano, guitar and Lara's voice.This woman is incredible .... !!! OMG ... that voice ... I adore it.. !!!
I discovered her a year ago when Canadian skaters used Je Suis Malade. It made me sit bolt upright and grab my phone to find out who it was. That was it for me, down the best rabbit hole ever I went. She took over the top spot as my favorite artist of all time. There is no other.
She made the song "Je T'aime" (I love you) famous. There is a you tube of her singing that song. There is also another one of her attempting to sing Je T''aime in a French venue where the adoring audience actually began singing the song TO HER. She was very touched, as you could imagine. It was fantastic. One other thing, if you would like the French language translated, just access the web site 'lyrics, translate." BTW Lara speaks several languages. She also sings in Italian -see"Caruso." I enjoy watching your reactions, especially since they are so well deserved.
Oh, it is so funny. Everytime you hear another song by Lara you say; 'Why didn't you tell me to listen to this first?' The reason is because nobody knows where to begin. Her talent baffles everyone. But I love your reactions nevertheless. As somebody who does not know music, you confirm my reactions, my awe.
Lara is not from here. She's a godsend and to think she was borned to sing. Everything that has happened to her in life has led her to become to the performer she is today. Phenomenal is right. This was a seriously chilling performance. It's downright scary how good this woman is. Underrated is one hell of an understatement. I don't think the world truly realizes what we have here in Lara. I mean this was FUCKING SCARY.
Lara Fabian is Amazing! Maybe you could react to the later versions of Je suis Malade. Those get me everytime, the part without the mic blow me away! Or Broken vow is Crazyyy! That song is of the freaking chain! And Love by Grace is also insane! Way too under rated. One of the best voices of this generation!!
You can also react to some of her vocals at her "pure" concert such as "I will always love you", "vision of love" and "yentle medley".... or perhaps some of her French songs "Tout" maybe or when she sang "the Prayer" with Michael Bolton.. there's many varieties of selections that u can choose from
I THINK SHE HAS THE BEST RESONANCE OF ANY CURRENT POP SINGER. CELINE DION IS GOOD AS WELL, BUT LARA GETS HER NOTES EFFORTLESSLY. A BIG DIFFERENCE HERE!!!
SoulFullOfMusic81 I’d argue the Celine has all the resonance and definitely the power but Lara’s voice is warmer. Celine’s tone is cooler but the benefit to that is more clarity. Except when she gets nasally sounding. I love both and it’s practically impossible for me to say which voice I appreciate more or think is better. Celine has much more English music and much more popularity in the states so I feel I “know” her better. Lara is definitely a voice to reckon with, one of the finest vocalists we have.
fix I do too, and actually the people making these comments probably already know this but Lara was a contestant the same year that Celine won Eurovision and Lara did not, so... Regardless, I’ll listen to Lara all day, her voice is beautiful
Hi! If you like Lara Fabian you must hear Bruno Pelletier singing "Le temps des cathédrals" and "lune" he is basically the male Lara Fabian! these 2 songs were big hits in Canada, France, Russia,... You on't be disappointed!
We knew her in France before she sings in english and no matter which langage she sings, she is the best of all, she has an angel's voice and I love her so much. Sublime Lara, tu es la meilleure, on t'aime !
I had to come back to this from a few weeks ago. I just that vid and it reminded me of this. It makes me smile to see your face go from, "git it girl" to blank face and literally watch your mouth open and chin dropping. That is a chin dropping master class my friend. She gives me goose bumps.
Hello there! it‘ s so beautiful as you hyptonyzed by her voice and presence ! I know Lara and saw her many times on stage in France in Paris ;) she’s amazing and more than you believe... i’m happy that you discovering her voice and huge talent! I wish you to meet her and listen to her singing for you, it’s an amazing experience! Bye ;) kiss from France And take care of you ! Hélène.
This is such a flawless and untouchable performance, the transitions, the sustained notes, where did she ever take a breath. Her voice is so warm and powerful. I'm guessing she's a low/relaxed larynx...
It is Lara's 48th birthday tomorrow, January 7th. I hope all those lucky enough to love Lara and her singing wish her a Happy Birthday and greatest protection from the performing Gods for her upcoming world tour!
If listening from highest note on broken vow where her G5 sounded slightly bells type (flageolete register perhaps) and her lowest note at G3, she might be a mezzo soprano. Thats why maestra Fabian posseses a very thick and rich textured voice especially at 4th and 5th octave. Plus to that, she is at her best to radiant the emotions from all songs.
What? No, lara is DEFINITELY a full lyric soprano, she doesnt even have a low tessitura for a soprano. An example of someone thats a lower soprano is Celine, who can support down to E3 in her 20s and enters passaggio quite early on and can full on belt F4s
You need to listen Lara's Je Suis Malade the same concert. It's stunning. Even my dad was wow, when this concert came in tv many years ago. And her reactions end of the song, goosebumps.
lara, is a multi-faceted Belgian singer, she is an author-songwriter, her talent is immense, her performances are always fantastic, thank you to make her discover all your subscribers, I love your channel thank you thank you😊👍😍🎶🎶🎶
The first time I've listened to 'Lara Fabian' was in 1998... in that time she was sounding, devastating every radio station in France with her smash'mega album 'Pure'... in that moment for me it was the song 'Humana' sounding on the Radio and it was just an instant that I will never forget for the rest of my life because it was Stunningly magical in that moment I fell in love with the voice of Lara Fabian indeed she has the capacity of leaving all of Us, always 'speechless', she has the capacity of surprising Us always with her Talent with her unique voice and also let's not forget that Lara is also author'composer so mainly what/when you listen to her singing she is mainly singing her own music her own creations Lara Fabian in my opinion is the greatest voice from all times some people might disagree with me [okkk] some people may prefer mentioning Mariah some other Barbra Streisand... for me in my humble opinion I never listened to a more perfect voice than Lara's... and I have to admit that I'm a big fan of great voices so Giorgia in Italy, MINA, Alla Pugacheva in Russia, Maggie Carles in Cuba or Christina Aguilera... Still, none of them Reigns with so much perfection as LARA does, so natural, that balance she maintains between passion and her brilliant technique... yeah, leaves me always Speechless You should all pay also attention to her songs: •Le Roi est une Femme [☆] •For Always {version Solo} •I am A-wa •Mademoiselle Hyde •Lou mais encore •Requiem pour un fou {duet with Johnny Halliday} •Je je t'appelle {*****} She never stopped surprising me...
Yeees....! Absolute magic and a storm of emotions ...! Lara gives soul to the music .. You make you levitate ... I adore her !!! In an interview, Seal said he had never heard a more beautiful voice and worshiped her talent and was a big fan of hers! Me too..!
I appreciate . Laura. And for me a real Diva even more than Celine Dion. it's a shame because she came to immigrate. Here in Quebec and began to become known at the same time as Céline except in the United States. and this song has been around since its very beginnings. And then her. resumed . I am sick, a cover of the French singer Serge Lama. just like Dimash who took over SOS FROM A TERRIAN IN DISTRESS. By LUC PLAMONDON who lives here and created with a French friend Michel Berger. Due to a dispute they had to shut down Starmania which lasted over 14 years. it was a rock opera sung in French. to come back to the beautiful Lara she speaks 12 languages which she sings with a natural emotion she has the ability to put herself in the skin of the character she sings. I think she deserves to be known if not more than Celine Dion who sings born. I also love Céline but what I find unfortunate and even selfish on her part. Years ago, Lara dreamed of singing with her, she met and Celine, never invited her to one of her shows. Lara even wrote to Céline who never answered her. and it is beautiful and well received, this letter that Céline reads in front of her fans on TV. why do this to him. Is she afraid of losing her place as a diva? That's what I believe. fortunately all of Quebec and Europe adore her, she is also Dimash's favorite singer, with whom she sings. even Igor Crutov. Who wrote her very beautiful songs for her. She is adored by Russians and Kasackstan. Thank you for your comments on Lara who is a good and simple woman. PS sorry for having put a lot of words. 🤘♥️👍
you have to do more lara! react to her singing "broken vow"! it's a very good preformance! you can also react to her singing "je suis malade" love your reactions!!
Hello. Thanks for posting this video of your reaction toward Lara's performance. She is indeed very special. Also, please watch her performance of singing ''LOU", the song for her daughter. She sang this in concert featuring Igor Krutoy on Piano. Thanks. Best regards from Indonesia
Bonjour Adam, je suis comme toi, soufflé par cette interprétation magistrale de Lara. Une voix au service de la chanson. Que des émotions. Prends soin de toi. Tu es le meilleur !!
Thanks so much... I waited so long long long time... See...See ...I know U'll be speechless if U watch this So glad to recommend U this performance... So talented ! Look at your face at the end with the open mouth is so funny.. Can't stop laughing But I didn't think U said Shakira sing like Lara's sound If she could.. hahaha
Hello, I wrote before about Dimash and Igor Ktutoy. According to Igor Ktutoy, it was L'ara who said, that Dimash was a boy from the space and there is no other like him, They worked together for a while with Igor Krutoy, After that Dimash sang with Celine Dion, The name stayed with him :A Man from the space. Krutoy said that in his very long career, Dimash is the only One like this. They still work together.
La diva con la voz más hermosa y actualmente sigue increíble ella decidió caminar sola y produciéndose ella misma y su voz actualmente es perfect , actualmente no le an dado los premios que se merece por que la industria musical está sorda no saben nada de música ni voz , Lara es más que estos premios ella es el poder del más allá puede con todo y es valorada como unas de las 5 mejores voces del mundo
Hello Lara Fabian est une très grande artiste et pourtant elle est très humble accessible elle est adorée par les fans elle parle 12 langues une voix parfaite thank you good day all people kiss and love all people
Her voice is like honey. Even when she belts, you hear the power, but it's not brassy. No doubt about it - the talent she has is definitely God-Given.
God given lol tired of that BS she worked years to get to this level.
My gosh how long is that last note? Incredible
@sirhymer yes. That’s what sets her apart from most belters, for me. She’s never whiny or irritating no matter how high she belts.
@@janlesterlopez1729her and Mariah have that unique trait

When Lara Fabian was first making her breakthrough in Europe, The North American market was completely overrun with Diva's. There was Celine, Mariah Carey, Cher, Whitney and about six or seven others. Then, throw in the Nashville crossovers like Shania Twain, The big fat girl and her mother and a few more from that side, all scratching and clawing for the same CD and concert dollar.

Epic! Thanks! She never let the technique come in the way of the emotions. That is art on the highest most sincere level. Love her!
That level of fine control all along the diapason and intensities she uses is extremely rare, unique. She is just my favourite female singer.
Her version of "For always" is probably the most awe inspiring way of singing.
As is her "Le Roi est Une Femme", sung in 2001. No video unfortunately, only a recording, but uploaders have made nice videos.

She is incredibly trained, including classical training . I read that she went to a prestigious music conservatory from age 8-18. She also wrote all her own music.
She did not wrote all of her music, but that does not makes her less great
Nothing incredible to be honest. Classical training gives her most of this sound and long and high notes. Her style is very close to classical, change position a little and here it is. And of course her own colors of voice, her feeling of music, taste and acting
Yes, She began her musical education at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels at 8 in 1978. She studied lyric singing there for ten years, while starting to write songs.
@@ivanabonacicdoric3448 Almost all of her songs were written by her and several of them were composed by her.
I am a massive Lara fan. She is unique. She's one of the few singers who can make me cry. she sings and writes from the heart, and feels every word emotionally. I become transfixed. My emotions flow like an ocean of soothing waves to my soul. Celine is nowhere near not even close. Beauty and a special magic no one else has.
Celine Dion is in the league of her own. No need for uncalled for, unnecessary subjective comparison. And this video does not have anything to do with Celine. Both are incredibly talented and sweet.
@Acting Music Sports It is just mu opinion friend. Only Lara has the power to have sech an emotional impact on me.. But it's not just me who compare Celine and Lara against each other. Ceiine has a great vo
@Acting Music Sports It is just my opinion, and i guess many will agree comparing Lara and Celine. Maybe it's because Celine is better known,But Celine doesn't do it for me. Only Lara can affect me so emotionally, she has a far better voice by far.As for Witney, She is different all together and in a class of her own .Thank you for your opinion.
@Acting Music Sports Hi. No doubt Celine is a great talent, along with the likes of Witney and a few others. I thought they could not be beaten, then I discovered Lara, and she blew my mind and my emotions like no other.When I wrote the original comment. I'd only just discovered Lara, and guessed many where still unaware and put Celine at the top of the list, but now Celine was not the only one to rile. Yes I agree, there is room for both of them, perhaps I shouldn't have made the comparison, but I was totaly blown away by Lara, and thought perhaps others would the same.I do see both singers as similar with strong voices. It is just an opinion I found Lara at the time much more emotional for me, affecting my emotions. I never meant to cause any disagreement, but we all have our opinions, I know you mean well and are probably right.You sound a very nice person I respect your comment and wish you well. Thank you. Stay safe.
@Acting Music Sports Hi my friend. Yes they rule supreme. and like you say. there are others, some yet to be discovered. I saw a young girl singing Lara's songs on the street in Nottingham Uk.She was incredible. I was surprised how such a young girl could sing Lara's songs. Incidentally, I bought Celines French album yesterday, one of my all time favorites. I love Whitney too. Yes it's great to have a respectful debate without falling out. You must be a good person. I thank you for your comments.I'm not always right, but I write what I feel, I am a writer. I just hope I never upset anyone. Great to meet you. take good care. Best wishes. Pete.
Her voice power and clearety is everything....
The sound of her voice hits my ears and travels to my toes. WOW just WOW. Thanks for enjoying with me.
I just wish people knew her then when she was coming up I.e around 1999-2001
Lara Fabian I love you
You are greater than all those Trinity for me
Like I’ve always said: She is THE female voice of our time.
I just love how you just stared in awe with your mouth open. I hate when she's equated with other singers. She is the gift within the gift. (It's not of any consequence but she pronounces her name lah-rah.) I'm so grateful to have such an authentic artist in my lifetime. Love your reviews. Great taste in all genre's.
ps, I didn't mean that she shouldn't be compared to other singers, but I've heard too many American's say that she sounds like Celine Dion. If only those that do that understood the work that Lara goes thru to maintain and keep that magnificent instrument at to peak for to maintain that range and belt. She lost hearing in her left ear because a technician f'd up the pitch and volume in the left ear bud. To this day you can see her reaching to her left ear continuously trying to adjust it thru out songs and shows. I wish that most Americans would explore other genre's and not let themselves to be force fed the top pop/rap and country. There's some great music out there but there is so much more than what the record label's push on artists to make $$$$
Lara is sharp making the transition from head to chest without notice. She will admit to it I guess. She is a phenomenal vocalist.
That face, that emotion,
I was speechless too last week when I heard it for the first time, I’ve been listening to it everyday at least 10 times a day. WOWSERS LARA is INCREDIBLE & Brilliant
No 1 vocalists in my ears. 🙏🏼💃🏻😃💝BLESSED. 🙏🏼 my favourite song
Lara is one of those artists whom you enjoy live performances way more than studio albums. 🤷♂️
I hope she gets recognized more in the US. She's incredible.

She sings incredible, she puts her soul when she sings, Lara is the most singer that I listened and I say that she is the betters because se express a real feeeling, she sings with her heart and she made her a wonderful woman.
This song puts me in heaven. Lara in her 30's unmatched!!
She is an incredible singer and an equally incredible songwriter. She has the best kind of beauty- that radiates from within and shines through. I know very little French and Italian. I understand Portuguese a bit more as my best friend is Brazilian; but Lara Fabian is one of those rare artists that can reach people's hearts and touch them, even if they don't understand the words, their heart understands, or their soul does- either case, the message is received and felt. My all-time favorite singer (May she rest in peace) was one of those artists (and a personal friend of mine for many years) for millions of people around the world (there are others)-- but my favorite diva, while doing a concert in an outdoor amphitheater, held out a big note while she slowly lowered the microphone to the floor- gradually her voice faded from the speaker system and her own natural voice FILLED the amphitheater. When she let go of the note, she seemed a little lost, almost frightened... by the silence. Not a sound. Then, someone started clapping, and more people began to clap, and and more and more, until the entire theater was on their feet cheering and clapping, and screaming and whistling. I turned to my friend and asked her, "Did that really just happen?" and she said, "YES". That singer filled an OUTDOOR amphitheater with her natural voice powered by her own lungs, without the use of the amplifier and speakers. That singer was Donna Summer. Lara Fabian can touch your heart and move people to tears and give them hope... Donna Summer could reach out and touch your soul, lift you to your feet and make you dance. This is POWER. It's magic. It's a gift. Lara Fabian is one of the greatest singers of our time. She may not have hits in America like Rhianna or ... okay, Shakira (I personally don't care for Shakira's voice when she sings in English-- but I LOVE her songs in Spanish, and I only understand a little Spanish...) but nonetheless, Lara Fabian is magical and her gifts are real and they matter. It's unfortunate that Americans aren't a little more international like much of the rest of the world, where a second language is required in school. Around the time of Lara's first English album, I played a few songs for a friend who is a trained opera singer and has a degree in music. He was amazed... then he said, 'There's no way she could sing like that live"... so I played the LIVE recordings and his jaw dropped to the floor. AMAZING
Her voice, her charachter , her point of view .... Everything of her are just amazing for me😍 And yes she is so special for me 😄 I'm "lover" of this angel since my 6 years old U'm proud of that😍😍😍 And her new english album aka Camouflage is coming soon😍 I hope you'll be able to react to song from this new album as soon as possible😊❤👌
When she sings, sounds like the angels voices in heaven.
This is what a diva looks like and sings like... Nobody this days can even get close to her whole value as an artist. Most of the so called divas just get less and less dressed on stange just because they have to offer a show for the eyes and nothing more. Lara is the best, she delivers the whole packege, emotions, voice, and such a beautifull look 😍
She is quite simply the best. So happy to see someone enjoy her skill!
It is fun watching you fall in love with Lara Fabian.... This was my first experience with Lara.... the same album... there is no other that I have ever topped her... not Celine, not Barbra.... they are both the best...but Lara out sings them I promise... I discovered this album... six years ago and I was hooked... she made me forget everyone else.. you have so many songs to hear...It is truly a great ride... enjoy!
This happened to me two years ago. I happened to find this concert in youtube. I was shocked ..! Lara has shifted from my heart all my beloved singers Barbara, withni, Celin, Mariah.... Unbelievable magic of the voice and incredible emotion of the performances! She changed my idea of singing. I can not stop listening to her ... I'm addicted to this voice and this woman ...
The emotional effect that her singing, interpretation, and her rich voice, have on me have made me the same as you.
Hi, Frank I've been watching this acoustic concert until now..
ruclips.net/video/iJd4Axw_R9Q/видео.html
No back vocals, only piano, guitar and Lara's voice.This woman is incredible .... !!! OMG ... that voice ... I adore it.. !!!
I discovered her a year ago when Canadian skaters used Je Suis Malade. It made me sit bolt upright and grab my phone to find out who it was. That was it for me, down the best rabbit hole ever I went. She took over the top spot as my favorite artist of all time. There is no other.
one of biggest masterpiece..energy of song is incredible
Lara fabian la voz mas hermosa del planeta
DANY DANIEL BALLET te doy la razon al 1000%.
DANY DANIEL BALLET la.mejor voz.. por siempre y para siempre
Completamente de acuerdo..!!!
Es la mejor voz jamás escuchada. Diosa LARA FABIAN
She made the song "Je T'aime" (I love you) famous. There is a you tube of her singing that song. There is also another one
of her attempting to sing Je T''aime in a French venue where the adoring audience actually began singing the song TO HER. She was very touched, as you could imagine. It was fantastic. One other thing, if you would like the French language translated, just access the web site 'lyrics, translate." BTW Lara speaks several languages. She also sings in Italian -see"Caruso." I enjoy watching your reactions, especially since they are so well deserved.
Of course she made Je t'aime famous...it's HER song... she co-wrote it...
She's not from here
She kind of like have this haunting voice and looks. Kind of like a sexy vampire. Lol.
Oh, it is so funny. Everytime you hear another song by Lara you say; 'Why didn't you tell me to listen to this first?' The reason is because nobody knows where to begin. Her talent baffles everyone.
But I love your reactions nevertheless. As somebody who does not know music, you confirm my reactions, my awe.
I suggest 2 song of Lara Fabien (je suis malade ) And (je t'aime) she is incredible
Michel Lanoue
Yass! xd
Michel Lanoue Ouiiii
More songs by Lara Fabian please !!! Thanks.
Lara is not from here.
She's a godsend and to think she was borned to sing. Everything that has happened to her in life has led her to become to the performer she is today.
Phenomenal is right. This was a seriously chilling performance. It's downright scary how good this woman is.
Underrated is one hell of an understatement. I don't think the world truly realizes what we have here in Lara.
I mean this was FUCKING SCARY.
Haha love when you said "you should have recommended this first"; how can you choose the best from someone giving so many amazing performances?
Lara Fabian is Amazing! Maybe you could react to the later versions of Je suis Malade. Those get me everytime, the part without the mic blow me away! Or Broken vow is Crazyyy! That song is of the freaking chain! And Love by Grace is also insane! Way too under rated. One of the best voices of this generation!!
You can also react to some of her vocals at her "pure" concert such as "I will always love you", "vision of love" and "yentle medley".... or perhaps some of her French songs "Tout" maybe or when she sang "the Prayer" with Michael Bolton.. there's many varieties of selections that u can choose from
Best diva , Lara sigue cantando perfecta , está haciendo gira mundial y está increíble y perfecta
I THINK SHE HAS THE BEST RESONANCE OF ANY CURRENT POP SINGER. CELINE DION IS GOOD AS WELL, BUT LARA GETS HER NOTES EFFORTLESSLY. A BIG DIFFERENCE HERE!!!
I'd put Lara slightly over Celine. To me Lara is in the top 3 of the greatest singers of all time
If Celine Dion had tone richness/resonance that Lara has, she would probably be the greatest ever, but she doesn't, so... :D
SoulFullOfMusic81 I’d argue the Celine has all the resonance and definitely the power but Lara’s voice is warmer. Celine’s tone is cooler but the benefit to that is more clarity. Except when she gets nasally sounding. I love both and it’s practically impossible for me to say which voice I appreciate more or think is better. Celine has much more English music and much more popularity in the states so I feel I “know” her better. Lara is definitely a voice to reckon with, one of the finest vocalists we have.
@@jak30341 Exactly. I just hated it when people starts these ridiculous divas war
fix I do too, and actually the people making these comments probably already know this but Lara was a contestant the same year that Celine won Eurovision and Lara did not, so...
Regardless, I’ll listen to Lara all day, her voice is beautiful
The look on your face, at that last sustained belt, is priceless....thanks for giving us this reaction. She is simply AWESOME!
Hi! If you like Lara Fabian you must hear Bruno Pelletier singing "Le temps des cathédrals" and "lune" he is basically the male Lara Fabian! these 2 songs were big hits in Canada, France, Russia,... You on't be disappointed!
We knew her in France before she sings in english and no matter which langage she sings, she is the best of all, she has an angel's voice and I love her so much. Sublime Lara, tu es la meilleure, on t'aime !
I had to come back to this from a few weeks ago. I just that vid and it reminded me of this. It makes me smile to see your face go from, "git it girl" to blank face and literally watch your mouth open and chin dropping. That is a chin dropping master class my friend. She gives me goose bumps.
Hello there! it‘ s so beautiful as you hyptonyzed by her voice and presence ! I know Lara and saw her many times on stage in France in Paris ;) she’s amazing and more than you believe... i’m happy that you discovering her voice and huge talent! I wish you to meet her and listen to her singing for you, it’s an amazing experience! Bye ;) kiss from France And take care of you ! Hélène.
She is just so amazing! I only got to know her recently, Gosh what a talented lady! Please react to more of her songs!
This is such a flawless and untouchable performance, the transitions, the sustained notes, where did she ever take a breath. Her voice is so warm and powerful. I'm guessing she's a low/relaxed larynx...
Resonance. For. Days. 👌🏻🎆
It is Lara's 48th birthday tomorrow, January 7th. I hope all those lucky enough to love Lara and her singing wish her a Happy Birthday and greatest protection from the performing Gods for her upcoming world tour!
If listening from highest note on broken vow where her G5 sounded slightly bells type (flageolete register perhaps) and her lowest note at G3, she might be a mezzo soprano. Thats why maestra Fabian posseses a very thick and rich textured voice especially at 4th and 5th octave. Plus to that, she is at her best to radiant the emotions from all songs.
She is Soprano, not Mezzo...
She doesn’t has the weight for being a Mezzo. She is for sure a Lyric Soprano.
What? No, lara is DEFINITELY a full lyric soprano, she doesnt even have a low tessitura for a soprano. An example of someone thats a lower soprano is Celine, who can support down to E3 in her 20s and enters passaggio quite early on and can full on belt F4s
It's so wonderful to see new people discover what so many of us have known for so long.....
Every time I watch this, I find myself laughing out loud at your reaction to her last note..You look totally stunned. Great reaction!
You need to listen Lara's Je Suis Malade the same concert. It's stunning. Even my dad was wow, when this concert came in tv many years ago. And her reactions end of the song, goosebumps.
So beautiful ... so warm ... with so much presence !!! reaches those notes with ease and effortlessly ... the best of the best
At 3:05 and 5:27 onwards, I knew she is the best singer, just listen, it sounds effortless and the control she has over her voice is magnificent!
I'm still laughing at your dropped jaw at the end lmao
lara, is a multi-faceted Belgian singer, she is an author-songwriter, her talent is immense, her performances are always fantastic, thank you to make her discover all your subscribers, I love your channel thank you thank you😊👍😍🎶🎶🎶
The first time I've listened to 'Lara Fabian' was in 1998... in that time she was sounding, devastating every radio station in France with her smash'mega album 'Pure'...
in that moment for me
it was the song 'Humana' sounding on the Radio
and it was just an instant that I will never forget
for the rest of my life because it was Stunningly magical
in that moment I fell in love with the voice of Lara Fabian indeed
she has the capacity of leaving all of Us, always 'speechless', she has the capacity of surprising Us always
with her Talent
with her unique voice and also
let's not forget that Lara is also author'composer
so mainly
what/when you listen to her singing
she is mainly singing her own music
her own creations Lara Fabian
in my opinion
is the greatest voice from all times
some people might disagree with me [okkk]
some people may prefer mentioning Mariah
some other Barbra Streisand...
for me
in my humble opinion I never listened to a more perfect voice than Lara's...
and
I have to admit that I'm a big fan of great voices
so Giorgia in Italy, MINA,
Alla Pugacheva in Russia,
Maggie Carles in Cuba
or Christina Aguilera...
Still, none of them Reigns with so much perfection as LARA does, so natural,
that balance she maintains between passion and her brilliant technique... yeah, leaves me always Speechless
You should all pay also attention to her songs:
•Le Roi est une Femme [☆]
•For Always {version Solo}
•I am A-wa
•Mademoiselle Hyde
•Lou
mais encore
•Requiem pour un fou {duet with Johnny Halliday}
•Je je t'appelle {*****}
She never stopped surprising me...
Yeees....! Absolute magic and a storm of emotions ...! Lara gives soul to the music .. You make you levitate ... I adore her !!!
In an interview, Seal said he had never heard a more beautiful voice and worshiped her talent and was a big fan of hers! Me too..!
I appreciate . Laura. And for me a real Diva even more than Celine Dion. it's a shame because she came to immigrate. Here in Quebec and began to become known at the same time as Céline except in the United States. and this song has been around since its very beginnings. And then her. resumed . I am sick, a cover of the French singer Serge Lama. just like Dimash who took over SOS FROM A TERRIAN IN DISTRESS. By LUC PLAMONDON who lives here and created with a French friend Michel Berger. Due to a dispute they had to shut down Starmania which lasted over 14 years. it was a rock opera sung in French. to come back to the beautiful Lara she speaks 12 languages which she sings with a natural emotion she has the ability to put herself in the skin of the character she sings. I think she deserves to be known if not more than Celine Dion who sings born. I also love Céline but what I find unfortunate and even selfish on her part. Years ago, Lara dreamed of singing with her, she met and Celine, never invited her to one of her shows. Lara even wrote to Céline who never answered her. and it is beautiful and well received, this letter that Céline reads in front of her fans on TV. why do this to him. Is she afraid of losing her place as a diva? That's what I believe. fortunately all of Quebec and Europe adore her, she is also Dimash's favorite singer, with whom she sings. even Igor Crutov. Who wrote her very beautiful songs for her. She is adored by Russians and Kasackstan. Thank you for your comments on Lara who is a good and simple woman. PS sorry for having put a lot of words. 🤘♥️👍
Beautiful, incroyable, magic, lara Fabian you are the best i love you so mutch
you have to do more lara! react to her singing "broken vow"! it's a very good preformance!
you can also react to her singing "je suis malade"

Please react to Lara Fabian - Medley Starmania (En toute Intimite) is amazing how good she is as singer and as artist too.
Hello. Thanks for posting this video of your reaction toward Lara's performance. She is indeed very special. Also, please watch her performance of singing ''LOU", the song for her daughter. She sang this in concert featuring Igor Krutoy on Piano. Thanks.
Best regards from Indonesia
Geez. I come back here. And I forget the ending in between. And I can't help tearing up. Again.
"If Shakira could sing she would sound like this" 💀💀💀
so funny ahahaha
Elias Gonzalez don t compare shakira s voice with this super power voice

that's so funnyyyyyyy
Em Em I'm a he but thanks for clarifying it. ☺️

From Lara with Love concert and the various songs in it, 110 + million views on RUclips.

But I didn't think U said Shakira sing like Lara's sound If she could.. hahaha
Everybody seems to gorget that she is Belgian, my country, and so pride of her !!
Hello, I wrote before about Dimash and Igor Ktutoy. According to Igor Ktutoy, it was L'ara who said, that Dimash was a boy from the space and there is no other like him, They worked together for a while with Igor Krutoy, After that Dimash sang with Celine Dion, The name stayed with him :A Man from the space. Krutoy said that in his very long career, Dimash is the only One like this. They still work together.
disagree has an incredible instrument but he shows off all the time.
😂😂😂 4:02 “you know what? If Shakira could sing, she would sound like this.” 😂😂😂 My man! Savage!!! Definitely earned a “turn on notification”
time to listen to her epic song je t'aime and her cover of je suis malade
Saw her last may in Amsterdam ..amazing incredible
Simply amazing. .
La diva con la voz más hermosa y actualmente sigue increíble ella decidió caminar sola y produciéndose ella misma y su voz actualmente es perfect , actualmente no le an dado los premios que se merece por que la industria musical está sorda no saben nada de música ni voz , Lara es más que estos premios ella es el poder del más allá puede con todo y es valorada como unas de las 5 mejores voces del mundo
