My heart just breaks for Dan every time I see this. Singing it so soon after his father died, and in tribute to him. There is no pain like that a son feels when his father dies... I know from experience. I'm 62, my father died 7 years ago, and I still cry for him... let alone sing a masterpiece from his favorite artist. We don't deserve Dan. He is too good and pure for us. Hail Vasc Nation 💪❤️✝️
No one will understand the suffering that a person experiences when a loved one is terminally ill.. and ultimately loses this fight. And you can't do anything, you see this suffering every day and the only thing you can do is pray. I went through this too and I fully understand it, I cry with him, it can't be described. So true, so sincere.. God bless Him ❤
Dan recorded this 6 days after his father passed away from cancer. His dad loved Elvis and this was his dad's favorite Elvis song. Imagine how Dan felt as he sang the words "So hush little baby don't you cry. You know your daddy's bound to die."
Your comment is exactly pure truth! This is absolutely true pure raw emotion that we are experiencing in Dan’s deepest saddest moments of that devastating loss of his Daddy in 2017 approximately Oct 2-4th…which is just before Dans birthday on 10/13 when he was turning 28 and he says that one of the hardest things has been that his Dad didn’t get to see his accomplishments and hard work/success! 😔
I really don’t know how he was able to perform this one just after the passing of his beloved dad. His father was his first and strongest supporter since Dan was a kid. At the end it reads “Sleep with God Dad” “See you soon”.
He did this "For my beloved father Roberto" (that's what is written at the beginning) - you see him at the end with little Dan. You clearly hear and see the emotion in it. Thanks - and blessings to you. Take care 🕊️
American Trilogy is an absolutely magnificent performance by a grieving man for the loss of his father. It's a tear jerker and one simply has to cry with Dan. The beautiful photo at the end of his father holding baby Dan is amazing and we are all blessed by it.
Every time I listen to Dan sing this as a tribute to his Dad, I cry with Dan for the loss of my Daddy. Dan sings this with so much emotion. I don’t know how he finishes the song when he is crying. He is such an awesome man and an extremely talented singer. He is DANTASTIC. I’m a huge fan.
TRIBUTE TO HIS FATHER, Dans dad love this song! Can not see this video without feel the same amazing, awesome etc...as him and he is NOT afraid to show his feeling 😢😢and you can also see Dan is looking up to heaven many times, Dan is absolutely incredible and complete singer 💞💞🥇🥇thanks for great reaction. Hugs from Norway🫂🫂💞💞
RIP Roberto❤ I know you look down upon your beloved son Dan and are beyond proud of him! You raised a very kind and humble young man that is full of skill and talent. Hail VascNation ❤
He is holding back him balling he is so strong this song was so hard for him he is such a wonderful man he wares his emotions on his sleeve I couldn’t sing this after my parents went to be with our Lord he did some praying for strength for this one this man is truly one of a kind how wonderful he is
Dan's Dad was a Musician who Loved Elvis. His Mother was an Opera Singer.His Dad was his best friend. He went into a 2 year Depression after his Dad died of cancer. He sang this in tribute to his Dad right after he passed. He has a hard time keeping it together.Amazing Grace meant so much to him coming out of his Depression. The harmonica he plays in Amazing Grace was a gift from his,Dad when he was 7 years old & is very special to him. Dan advocates for people with Depression now.
I couldn't watch this again until tonight. Dan has tears in his eyes by the end of this and it brought me to tears the first -- and only, until tonight -- time I watched it. I knew that Elvis was his dad's favorite singer. I knew that his dad had just passed away. And I knew he sang this for his father. That was enough right there, but knowing how much he *feels* the songs he sings made me very reticent to watch it. I did so tonight because I knew you were the one reviewing it. Thank you.
This IS real emotion. He lost his Dad to cancer less than a week prior to recording. This was his Dad's favourite Elvis song. I cry along with him. Hail Vasc-Nation ❤️🤘✝️
so SAD that would have been a hard song to sing , pure emotion for the loss of his father , I couldn't be that brave , great reaction as ALWAYS thank you .......❤From Australia........
That was a tribute to his father. It really was true and pure emotion. His dad was a huge Elvis fan and that was one of his favorite songs. Absolutely beautiful and touching. Great reaction as usual. Thank you so much.
Brilliant comments, brother!!!! I SO AGREE WITH YOU!!!!!!! This video shows another beautiful aspect of Dan’s heart…his desire to show honor and love to his daddy speaks volumes. Dan shows the transparency of his heart here, which shows great strength. So many people avoid or hide their true feelings…Dan brings his raw, authentic feelings all the time, and he always brings that into the music! This tribute is exquisite. I know that Dan’s Beloved Father was watching this up in heaven and was overjoyed and SO PROUD of Dan, and he will continue to be cheering his son on as Dan soars to even greater heights. 🕊 Thank you, once again for an outstanding video! Love and blessings to you, brother….you are amazing and doing an awesome job! 👏🏼😁
Others have commented about why he was so emotional in this song. It was very brave and showed how much he loved his Father. And by the way, it sounded so beautiful. Thanks.
There is another song Dan sang for a fan that is connected to this one. You really need to watch that one. It shows what a kind and thoughtful person Dan really is. It’s Love Me Tender another Elvis cover.
Musicians turn to their music for comfort, and I've always hoped this was therapeutic for Dan. This one is hard for me. I lost my dad when I was about the same age as Dan was at the time of this video. I understand the pain he was feeling.
Exactly the same for me too. I lost my Dad when I was 31, and this was his favourite song too. Every time I hear it I think of him, and I honestly do not know how Dan managed to do that . He is phenomenal, and it was the most perfect tribute to his father. I am so thankful that I discovered Dan and his wonderful talent.
This makes me cry everytime i watch it, the pain in his face is heartbreaking, you made him proud Dan. Translation at the end. Sleep with God Dad See you soon
Thank you for this reaction. The beauty of Dans music is that it's true to himself and the skills he worked so hard to acquire. It will be a long time if there is someone like him, but I doubt such a person exists
This hits me in my heart every time I hear it. So much emotion comes through in his voice and on his face. I have also lost my Dad and this tribute to his father reminds me of mine.
This is one of the most moving performances I’ve ever seen, and I cry along with him. He gave his father the gift of his singing, a precious tribute indeed. Thanks for sharing your reaction. 😢❤
He did this cover days after his father passed away and he loved this song, a lot of pain, a lot of emotion, everything. I always cry when I watch this video again, tks 😢❤
I can't watch this video, I can only listen to it. It breaks my heart when I see Dan in it. How much strength it must have cost Dan to record it so soon after his father's death. He loved his dad very much... Thank you for noticing that this video is something very special and for listening to it without interruption.❤
This just can't be put into words. I cry every time I listen to this. He has such courage, strength, and professionalism. An amazing tribute to his father. Thank you for your reaction.
In this one, the emotion is as real as it gets having just lost his father less than a week before he recorded this. My heart just breaks for him every time I hear this.
The beginning words translate to "To my Belover Father Robert". At the end the words translate to "Sleep with God, Father, I'll see you soon". So sad watching Dan sing this and his outro message with him in his fathers arms breaks my up every time.
Thank you for translating this.❤ I can’t begin to imagine the strength it took to do this shortly after his father’s passing. This brings uncontrollable tears to my own eyes, thinking about the love of my own father and he’s been gone nine years now. There is no way I could have this kind of strength. Dan is unquestionably the depiction of compassion and perfection. ❤❤❤
Some of the comments below are a tad snarky, and I have been guilty of that myself from time to time. Yes, it was for his father, but his artistic choice was to pour his heart into this song, and the why is not all that relevant, these years later, and that outpouring is what most of us respond to. His version of Love Me Tender was NOT dedicated to his father, and yet it was dedicated, and it was at least as emotionally powerful, even though he had not met the couple he sang it to.
If you go to Dans RUclips channel you’ll see that An American Trilogy was made 6 years ago, so this is not recent and was around the time his father passed.
Hey, Brother. Dan Vasc is the only reason that I began watching reaction channels such as yours. And I must say, that you are among a short list of those that totally get Dan the man, and Dan the singer/performer. I really appreciate your reactions to Dan, and you have easily earned a new subscriber in me. I just checked your channel and saw that you have not reacted to a particular song that Dan dedicated to an elderly couple. The wife reached out to Dan, and he responded. It is another Elvis song. Please react to this one.... ruclips.net/video/1tQhw_scrxE/видео.html
Dude, do your research. Dan recorded this as a tribute to his father that passed away 5 days before. His father was a Elvis fan. Dan is an emotional singer but this hit him hard. I am not saying you should listen to the song before hand but everyone knows the story about Dan and his father. If it was a patreon request they should have told you.
Yeah I could have been more subtle and I apologize. Just hit me wrong. Been listening to his reactions for a long time and he is a Dan fan and would have thought he knew his back story. This song is an emotional one for Dan and I feel his pain. Like I said before, if it was sent by a patreon then shame on them for not letting him know. When I send a patreon request I always say a few words why I am requesting it. Again I apologize for being rude and thank you for calling me out on it. @@SmallTownMusicFreak
This is absolutely true pure raw emotion that we are experiencing in Dan’s deepest saddest moments of that devastating loss of his Daddy in 2017 approximately Oct 4th…which is just before Dans birthday on 10/13 when he was turning 28 and he says that one of the hardest things has been that his Dad didn’t get to see his accomplishments and hard work/success! 😔 But we all know that his dad is watching over him with the button popping pride of a Parent! 🥰🤩🫡🧔🏻♀️💚🙏🏼🫶🏻 All Hail Daniel! As a member of his senior fans club I/We are beyond proud of his magnificent success and accomplishments!
I agree with you my friend the struggle and that lump in his throat he released a few tears then managed somehow from the faith of God to blast out that last chorus! No one else would have been able to carry on! Or re record when less emotional. But like you said he shows his emotion and you see you go through it with him it certainly opens your heart and that is the difference between Dan and other artists he wants you to see him grieve because it’s normal we were all there with him praying he could get through that last chorus! He doesn’t cut that bit out (like most artists do who only want you to see them at their very best all sparkly and good) NO Dan wants you see him as a real person with feelings!!!!! That’s the difference and I much prefer A Real Person who’s not afraid to show emotion and how to get over that emotion and carry on!!! Great reaction ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏻💫💫💫💫💫
He recorded it about 5 days after his father passed. Elvis was his dad's favorite singer, this was a tribute to his dad.
My heart just breaks for Dan every time I see this. Singing it so soon after his father died, and in tribute to him. There is no pain like that a son feels when his father dies...

Beautiful heartbreaking performance , such a wonderful tribute to his father . Your reaction is spot on .
This is amazing and every time I hear this…I cry. His emotion is so pure and I can feel everything he’s feeling! Just….awesome all around! ❤️
It hurts immensely to see our Dan cry. You just want to take on the pain so he doesn't have to feel it.
I can't watch this without shedding tears,I feel his pain.❤Dan
This one breaks my heart every time I see it.
I couldn't watch this again until tonight. Dan has tears in his eyes by the end of this and it brought me to tears the first -- and only, until tonight -- time I watched it.

Love you dad. We haven't seen each other for 24 years now. my friend. You died so bloody young. Still miss you every day. Hope you are proud of me.
so SAD that would have been a hard song to sing , pure emotion for the loss of his father , I couldn't be that brave ,
great reaction as ALWAYS thank you .......❤From Australia........
A beautiful tribute to his dad, Roberto. ❤❤❤
That was a tribute to his father. It really was true and pure emotion. His dad was a huge Elvis fan and that was one of his favorite songs. Absolutely beautiful and touching. Great reaction as usual. Thank you so much.
It is a dedication to his father, who died one week earlier this video

For his father…beautiful tribute 💗💗💗
Others have commented about why he was so emotional in this song. It was very brave and showed how much he loved his Father. And by the way, it sounded so beautiful. Thanks.
Excellent reaction to this heartrending song, done just days after his dad passed away from cancer. The emotion is 100% pure in this song.
There is another song Dan sang for a fan that is connected to this one. You really need to watch that one. It shows what a kind and thoughtful person Dan really is. It’s Love Me Tender another Elvis cover.
I believe this was a beautiful tribute to his Father. I had tears in my eyes. Very beautifully done.
It's real grief 😔
The mother in me wants to hug him and tell him his Dad would be extremely proud of him. Musicians often turn to music deal with their emotions.
That is true both singing songs and writing songs. Many a great song was written as the result of something tragic in the writer's life.
Musicians turn to their music for comfort, and I've always hoped this was therapeutic for Dan. This one is hard for me. I lost my dad when I was about the same age as Dan was at the time of this video. I understand the pain he was feeling.
Exactly the same for me too. I lost my Dad when I was 31, and this was his favourite song too. Every time I hear it I think of him, and I honestly do not know how Dan managed to do that . He is phenomenal, and it was the most perfect tribute to his father. I am so thankful that I discovered Dan and his wonderful talent.
This makes me cry everytime i watch it, the pain in his face is heartbreaking, you made him proud Dan.
Translation at the end.
Sleep with God Dad
See you soon
Thank you for this reaction. The beauty of Dans music is that it's true to himself and the skills he worked so hard to acquire. It will be a long time if there is someone like him, but I doubt such a person exists

So many emotions...so sad...so much courage...thanks for sharing
My understanding is that he sang this a few days after his father passed away. It's so filled with emotion. I tear up when i watch. It's beautiful.
This makes me cry every time. Such a beautiful to his Father.
Unbelievably emotional! 😢 I love Dan's music. ❤
He feels all of his music some more than others. You had a great reaction
In this one, the emotion was totally real . . . . . . this one breaks my heart every time I watch it . . . . . .
He did this cover days after his father passed away and he loved this song, a lot of pain, a lot of emotion, everything. I always cry when I watch this video again, tks 😢❤
I can't watch this video, I can only listen to it. It breaks my heart when I see Dan in it. How much strength it must have cost Dan to record it so soon after his father's death.

❤️❤❤Love all Dan Vasc ❤❤❤
Oh no, I'm sobbing again. I just want to put my arm around him and say "I'm so sorry sweetheart, try to remember all the good times". 😢
Thank you. 🥺 It was very emotional and respectful. I always like your reactions. ❤
Thank you!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This just can't be put into words. I cry every time I listen to this. He has such courage, strength, and professionalism. An amazing tribute to his father. Thank you for your reaction.
Once again an amazing reaction extremely raw and heartfelt you have become my absolute favorite genuine as you said once my go to go to go to go😊
Thanks for reacting to this heartbreaking performance. The thumbnail on the page for this song explains about his Dad.
In this one, the emotion is as real as it gets having just lost his father less than a week before he recorded this. My heart just breaks for him every time I hear this.
Another great reaction to the phenomenal Dan Vasc.
Have you seen his magical performance of Gethsemane??? Talk about emotional.
Grieving Dan is hard to watch. I found this shortly after my 95 yr old passed last year. I still tear up every time I watch it.
As said many times in the comments this was pure emotion, can't imagine how hard it was getting through that song, truly touching
The beginning words translate to "To my Belover Father Robert". At the end the words translate to "Sleep with God, Father, I'll see you soon". So sad watching Dan sing this and his outro message with him in his fathers arms breaks my up every time.

You're welcome. I too think of my own father's passing when watching Dan sing this. I appreciate your response to my comment.❤
He’s hurting. God give him peace.
If you love Sabaton, check out the Smoking Snakes cover by Dan.
❤😌
Dan's version is so much better than Elvis'.
Not in my opinion. Elvis cannot be equaled. ❤
How to heal a broken heart? Sing❤
