This is a video worth watching over and over again. You'll catch something new each time. Everying about this video is powerful. There's a line that says, "We have passed the moment of "Imagine". That one line says so much.
So hard to watch ,yet you can’t take your eyes off it .. Just so amazing and true . The live performance of this song at the Almaty concert was the most incredible live performance I’ve ever seen in my life . Dimash is an absolute musical genius . Thank you so much for this reaction it was very emotional!
Yes. Also, this one from the "premier" of the song, at the interreligious conference hosted in Kazakhstan, for which Dimash prepared this song. ruclips.net/video/ucEQb2PfnoM/видео.html
Hell yes! The live performance of One Sky at the Almaty concert (not the fan cam version) is the most breathtaking and soul stirring performance....and apparently Dimash had already been singing for about 3 hours.....truly mind blowing
Impresionante reacción muchas gracias por compartir esta obra maestra de Dimash hay que hacerlo viral en estos momentos tan difíciles de la humanidad simplemente gracias
Duele volver a mirar el vídeo,pero a la vez nos recuerda el grandioso trabajo de DIMASH y que en nuestras manos está cambiar el mundo . Nuestro príncipe siempre por la PAZ. Gracias por reaccionar a este VERDADERO ARTISTA❤
The title itself - “Story of One Sky” - is thought-provoking. Before Islam became the predominant religion in Kazakhstan, the nomadic people of the steppes followed Tengriism with Father Sky and Mother Earth as deities. Like many old pantheistic religions, its core tenet was the “unity of all things” since everything in the natural world is animated by and connected through spirit. This concept of spiritual unity lives on in Kazakh traditions, music and poetry. It is subtitled "Requiem” to commemorate and mourn all those who have died in war and in the struggle for peace, but it is also a vision for the future and a call to action to save ourselves and our world. Raised in an observant Muslim household, classically trained in music, educated in world and Kazakh history, and immersed in literature and folklore, Dimash has a deep understanding of sacred music and the mystic teachings and symbolism of the major world religions as well as ancient traditions, so it is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14, 2022, at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions in Kazakhstan. The written statement at the end of the video is directly from the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed jointly on February 4, 2019, by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad el-Tayeb. Dimash met and spoke with both men at the September meeting. Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel. I only touch on some of what struck me in the symbolism. The music is a dissertation all by itself. The pendant is an interesting element. It is a gnomon from a maritime compass sundial. This triangular blade is attached to the sundial, casting a shadow on the sundial while the perforated pinhole projects the image of the sun onto the dial. It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. (Thank you, Snarky Tart for that information). In the MV, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers, but it is distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through rendering it useless as a compass. When we lose the original intent of a symbol by twisting it into something it is not or by just paying lip service, it no longer has any spiritual meaning. At best it becomes a useless prop, at worst it is used to mislead and manipulate people. Dimash interweaves the past and the present, the ancient and the modern, throughout this work. Alluding to more contemporary music, with the phrase "We have passed the moment of Imagine," Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony to be achieved by erasing our differences and giving up our identities. The world is complex, cultural roots run deep, and people experience life quite differently across the globe. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must find common ground while respecting our differences and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way. The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment, we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war. We see that happening every day around us. The Piper's call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let's remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Many of us remember the story of the Pied Piper of Hameln from our childhood. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start war, who do not support war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against? The burning sign "Waldenberg" is a reference to the end of WWII when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht close to the end of the war in April 1945 in the part of Germany where I grew up. I have seen the aftermath of war as I was born a few years later when much of Germany was still in rubble. Waldenburg is only 28 miles from my hometown and was completely destroyed. There are no winners in war. Dimash is right: war is death. The last movement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant and punctuated by the sound of Tibetan bells that create a sacred space, reminding us that death and birth are both sacraments and are interwoven in the tapestry of life. The birth underground is reminiscent of the sacred cave Akmeshit (White Mosque) found in Southern Kazakhstan, an ancient place of power said to heal diseases and cure infertility. Dimash's vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking up the sacred mountain together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. With the mountain scenes, Dimash alludes to another sacred place in Kazakhstan on the Kazakh/Russian border, Ice Mountain, which is referred to by the local Altai residents as “The dwelling of the Gods” and by Buddhists as the location of the Shambhala, the legendary country of Gods. When Dimash’s character decides to avenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening of the sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storms of his emotions that buffet the pilgrims. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the "sacred womb" of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy, and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war and suffering by choosing life. Dimash's scream of “we’re choosing life” is also that of giving birth: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity as exemplified by the images of the children and the newborn baby. The blowing of the shofar signals God's mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right: in the Zohar, the book of Jewish mysticism, it says: “When human beings repent of their sins, they blow the shofar on earth. Its sound ascends On High and awakens the heavenly shofar, and so mercy is aroused and judgment is removed.” There is a very moving scene where pilgrims bury a man who perished on the journey. Men of different faiths come together to honor his life and his passing. This reverent expression of love and unity stands in stark contrast to the commander’s harsh pronouncement that it is war that unites people. Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash's character in the form of his son becomes a spiritual guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage, race, and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect. Carl Jung wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” This is what Dimash has done with this work; he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time. As the hymn goes: "Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me." Dimash is a very spiritual person, so using the symbols and sounds of the major world religions is fitting for this work. For those who do not subscribe to any faith tradition, I want to mention Neil DeGrasse Tyson’s latest book “Starry Messenger” where this agnostic scientist calls for the need to develop a cosmic perspective along with the rationality of science to solve the intractable human conflicts that so often lead to war. It is on that HIGHER ground - be it in religion, humanism, or science - that we can find COMMON ground.
Please also watch Dimash doing this number live in his Solo concert in Almaty. I get really “PO’d” when some haters say he could not do this live. He did just that snd it’s breathtaking to watch!! You won’t regret it! Thank you. Love your Channel! 👍🥰😍🌹❤️
Oh yes there is an official video of him singing this at the Almaty concert. It will leave you in tears. Dimash doesn’t just talk the talk, he definitely walks the walk 💛🎶🎶🎶
@@rada-tut Oh boy, he did sing it live. Just watch the fancams if you don’t believe the official videos. He’s putting every bit of his body in it. At the end he’s completely exhausted. If there’s a single performance on earth that i know for sure isn’t lip-synced, it’s this one. It pierces the screen.
I experienced that song live. OmG!! I cried my eyes off, because the beauty of the song and the depth of the lyrics got too overwhelming. This is, according to my opinion, the best and most versatile in both composition and vocals that a human being ever generated. Dimash is a genius!!! I will never stop to admire his abilities. What an artist! Whenever I will have the time and financial means I will visit his concerts - even if the concert took place on the north pole. Experiencing Dimash live is indescribable. I got addicted.
I'm with you. It was the most profound moment - it honestly felt as if angels descended on that stadium. Only those who were there will understand that I'm not exaggerating.
Hi John. If you go to the Almaty concert 2022 Part 3, on his RUclips channel, timestamp 23:17, you’ll find a live version of Story of One Sky with a beautiful, heartfelt introduction from Dimash with CC. You thought this was amazing, wait til you see the live version. Can’t wait to see your reaction. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
9:33 FACTS!!! He is friends with Jackie Chan, so we may get our wish :) And we've already seen him acting during "Golden", "Be With Me', and other videos and programs.
Привет из Баку !!! Супер постановка,он шокирует своими способностями,своим ангельским голосом и неземным талантом!!! Побольше бы таких молодыз талантов,радующие своим иворчеством!!!❤❤❤
Dimash, tiene su propia productora. Él no se vende a ninguna compañia discográfica. Gracias por tu reacción. Ahora escucha la versión en vivo en Almaty, deja el alma en el escenario. #graciasdimash
Это настолько сложное и технически и эмоционально музыкалтное произведение, что без слез и полностью покрытым мурашками с головы до ног, слушать НЕвозможно!
This, this is why we love him so much. Not just because of his vocals but because of the way he uses his platform to spread a message of peace around the world. He loves humanity in all its vibrant colours, shapes and forms. If you could only see moments from the Almaty concert, he stands on that huge stage and looks over the crowd often with the gentle smile of a loving father watching his children, there was something so innocent and yet so godlike in his whole presence that night. The third part of that concert (which is on his channel) is where you will find the best live performance. And yes, he can act his ass off! We've longed for him to do a movie but he's of the opinion that artists should stay in their own lane unfortunately. Although if his friend Jackie Chan were to ask, he probably wouldn't say no. Btw, he's such a great actor that you probably didn't realise that he appears in the video right from the first appearance of the soldiers, he's the one creeping along under the shelter, emerging to shoot the enemy soldier and the one following the soldier into the building and ending up getting shot in the arm.
اشعر بها لانها مشاهد عشتها قلبا وروحا في راسي وعيوني لسنوات من الحرب البغيضة في بلدي اتمنى السلام للجميع من قلب سوريا الحزين لا زلت اشعر بالصوت النقي القوي الذي يلامس الروح شكرا جون
.#ThanksDimash music video is a work of art by Dimash, a plea for peace 🕊️ and without religious intolerance, a work that deserves respect from all of us. John, I really like your reactions to Dimash, they are always very respectful and caring, thank you so much ♥️♥️🇧🇷🇧🇷
Dimash’s masterpiece! He is just the greatest vocalist of this generation! I can’t stop admiring his voice! He deserves to be known worldwide! Thanks for your reactions to Di! We, the dears, appreciate that❤
#thankyoudimash I've been waiting for you to get to this video. I knew it would touch you in so many ways, like it has me. The part where Dimash holds his murdered daughter still breaks me up. (I have two daughters myself and can only imagine how I would react under such circumstances, but I believe Dimash absolutely nailed it.) As always, I was blown away by his vocals, but the artistry with which he composed this masterpiece and his acting ability was sheer perfection!!!! Thank you so much for responding to this, John! You can view his live performance of this at ruclips.net/video/IH7hhSw6CfU/видео.html It was recorded at his Almaty concert in Kazakhstan last fall. It's a fan cam, but it's pretty good.

La muerte injusta de los inocentes,en cualquier acto,es muy triste, pasa qué el mundo no está valorando los afectos,vale más lo material, las nimiedades, que los sentimientos.

Gracias y no sé si vistes en el recital en kasajistan, lo cantó, te lo recomiendo, lloras, temblas, muchos más que el video. En vivo creo que escucharlo es algo, irreal!!! Abrazos!!!❤❤
This Painful Masterpiece is Dimash’s soul pleading to the World. I have no words, as my heart, body and soul are aching for Dimash. I believe Dimash Qudaibergen Has thousands of souls in him. How can one young man be so in tune in everything he does. His passion for The world, his country, his parents, his siblings, his friends, and especially his music is extraordinary !!! We are all so blessed to be a part of his outstanding journey!!I am so proud to be a Dear!! 💐💐❤️❤️ Thank you Dimash, for staying true to yourself!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and reactions of Dimash!! We’re Choosing Life!!
I know that a lot of fans will tell you to listen to the Almaty concert version. That performance happened before the song was officially out. I don’t think Dimash planned to sing it live. Also he performs this song towards the end of a three and a half hour concert so he is careful with his voice. If you watch Anatalya recent concert he sang about half of it live and it is gorgeous! There are only fan cams for this concert right now. It’s worth it though to listen to Dimash’s concerts because his live performances and improvisations are stunning
OMG thank you 😊 why is everybody saying that was sang live... I just can't believe it. Part live in Antalya and almost all in Armenia, I've been in all 3 concerts and definitely prefer the live, less perfect versions 😊
@@loveyourlifenow I think because the fans at Almaty heard it for the first time before the MV was out they thought that. Sometimes people don’t realize how important it is for a musician to show the perfect production of a musical creation where he wrote the music for the vocals and the instrumental music. If he sang it live it wouldn’t be the same perfect finished work which he worked so hard on.
Try the 3rd part of his Stranger concert in Almaty, scroll until you come to this song.. it is actually truly amazing to see him do this live (use his concert video, as there is a fan cam video, but the official footage is a 1000 times better)
Thanks a lot for your wonderful reaction and positivity! You can watch Dimash - The story of one sky LIVE in the video called "Almaty concert part 3" since 0:25 min. 😉 It's legendary!
Здравствуйте, думаю посоветую посмотреть ему это выступление, бац, вы это уже сделали. Крутое, лучше, чем клип, не чего не отвлекает от Димаша, потрясающее.
Es importante cuando recomendamos un video de Dimash poner el link para que puedan tener acceso más fácilmente, de lo contrario puede ser que no lo busquen.
Yes he is, the one and only! He’s really genius and very very multi talented artist and hard to find the similar artist like him. I have watched this MV many many times and never fail to make me in tears every time I watched it. Thank you for your reaction, I can see your genuine expressions and how much you adore Dimash just as we all fans do here. 🙏🏻
#thankyoudimash Yeah, the vocals are breathtaking for this song. I sometimes feel lightheaded near the end because I keep forgetting to breath during so many exciting metal and metal like parts😂😂😂 You are right about how one could get so much out of this video with more History and World Religions knowledge. I remember that the long horn blown by the Jews has some important meaning but I forget what it is. Rusty on my world religions knowledge as I don't use it much in Horticulture. I think the symbol the 3 children had was some kind of navigation tool. Anyway, great reaction. How many artists sing 13 minute long songs? Dimash is the best💐💐💐💐💐💐🥰Hugs from a Canadian Dear🇨🇦
These are my views on this amazing masterpiece Story of One Sky - I have watched this many times and still find things out that i never thought of amazing video and i have said it before if anyone could bring peace i strongly believe Dimash could make it possible. This needs to be shared worldwide to show people there is another way. War is never the answer because the only ones to suffer are the innocent. Rewatched the song of Dimash today one line stood out to me One of the most profound lines in The Story of One Sky is the line "Learn to share the love, Not shares" Not shares meaning stop making money out of war rich people have many shares in companies that profit from weapon manufacturing making them richer while the innocent suffer sadly this is why war exists. MONEY, GREED and POWER. The boy who was drowning was (Dimash's character as a child) made the necklaces that were given to the girl who grew up to be (Dimash's pregnant wife) and the boy who saved him who (grew up to be the military leader), possibly out of jealousy. The military leader waged his war The part in the video with the little girl and the people in the hallway were Dimash's family who had been wiped out the little girl whose body he picked up was his daughter, the baby that was born was his son who grew up to be Dimash grown up at the end!!! The Dimash at the end can also be seen as Dimash in the afterlife leading others to the light in peace. Something else i noticed is in his dying breath he sang (We're Choosing Life) as he finally passed away now that is powerful
Thank you John for your heartfelt reaction! It’s a true Masterpiece from Dimash! He composed the music and wrote a script for mv. I highly recommend to react to his live version of this song There you really can concentrate on his voice. It’s no less impressive than mv. He premiered it on September 23, 2022 at Almaty concert. It’s in the 3rd part of the concert. His performance was unbelievable! He left his heart on that stage! And the most important message for all of us- “We are choosing life!”, “We need peace!”.
Al vídeo tenés que verlo varias veces para interpretarlo y creo que lo han hecho de varias maneras, todas las voces que escuchas las hace Dimash. Cada vez que veo el vídeo, le disparan y lo veo cae al agua sufro 😢 Es el más grande. Es un mensaje de paz, lo que tanto desea el ser humano. Pero mientras en este mundo haya gente con hambre de poder, que venden armas, eso no será posible. Desde Uruguay abrazo de una dear 🥰🙏🌹❤️🇺🇾
Thank you for your great and empathetic reaction. Now you know why many Dears adviced you to wait to see this. In The Story Of One Sky he sings the whole soundtrack himself. The video shows once again that Dimash is an absolute genius. In singing but also as an actor (and yes, we all want to see him badly in a whole movie) and as a storyteller. The powerful message conveyed by this video is more relevant today than ever. I think this video is mostly about the message. This message however, is for the first time more important than his vocal abilities. His voice is just the tool in this video. But simply unbelievable. His singing is indescribable and I don’t have the words to express it adequately. But it is only the mediator of what this video is about. This is so heartbreaking and sad and an awesome masterpiece. Pure goosebumps. You probably have to see it more than once to understand it. He worked on this composition for three years and also wrote the screenplay. The premiere was on September 24, 2022. As some have mentioned, this video should be seen by many people. It may be very brutal for some. But let’s not forget that for many, including children, this is everyday life in some countries. And Dimash relentlessly shows us how ugly war is. Dimash was the little boy who was drowning in the beginning and he gave the necklace to his childhood friend (and future leader) and the girl. The girl on the beach was his future wife. And she gave birth to her second child in the video. The littel girl who was shot was Dimashs and her first daughter. Desperation and maybe revenge has led him to kill his former friend. But violence always breeds violence, and because of this, not only is the leader dead, but so is Dimash. Dimash in the last sequence of the video was the baby that was born and now as a grown man unites people of different nationalities and religions for peace. It’s funny how very few reactors realize that the soldiers shot in the arm at the beginning of the war scenes was Dimash. If you want to know more about this video check out dimashnews. com Btw, Dimash has received an award from Pope Francis personally at The Congress of the Leaders of World and Traditional Religions held in Kazakhstan on September 13, 2022. He performed the song there in connection with the congress before the premiere. Can you imagine, a Muslim receiving an award from the head of the Catholic Church. How wonderful is that🥰. He also gave a speech at the first Central Asian Media Forum, in which he once again strongly advocated peace. You can see it with English subtitles. ruclips.net/video/2C55a3mvfP/видео.html The official live version of his concert (on September 23, 2022 in front of 30,000 people from 68 different countries) is available on his channel Almaty concert part 3 from minute 23:15 with a short speech in which he performed the song for the first time. You should definitely see this. There are subtitles in English ruclips.net/video/YP1r9wlkmHU/видео.html And he's been singing it in all his concerts ever since. But always a little different. Greetings and love from Germany❤️
11:02 HAUNTINGLY MESMERIZING!!! Dimash is indescribable!!! Just when you htink you've heard it all he manifests something new!!! He REALLY is a musical genius!!!
I saw him do this live 2 weeks ago in Malaysia...tears...so, so emotional and so incredibly brilliant. You can see it live from his Almaty concert as others have said. Thankyou for your reaction and spreading the message of peace❤ 🇦🇺
#thank you Dimash And thank you John for your reaction. You are totally correct; there is so much to unpack in this video, composition. And you will absolutely LOVE Dimash’s live performance at Almaty. It is one of the most visceral performances I have ever seen. Dimash literally leaves his, deep within his soul, pleas for acceptance, tolerance, love, peace all on the stage. ☮️🙏💐❤️
We love you! And love all your reactions to Dimash 🤗❤️. Thanks for helping us to also keep it real. Love your usual insight. This is something that Should be given a Nobel prize, but he is far beyond man-made, ego driven awards🤔🌍🙄. You know he does this live, right? Please, please react to that one also🙏😟😇❤ #WeloveyouDimash!!!🌠
![The Magical DIMASH QUDAIBERGEN - The Story of One Sky [COUPLE REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/PDCE65CsyOk/mqdefault.jpg)
This is a video worth watching over and over again. You'll catch something new each time. Everying about this video is powerful. There's a line that says, "We have passed the moment of "Imagine". That one line says so much.
Masterpiece from the King ! Dimash wrote this song and script for MV! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So hard to watch ,yet you can’t take your eyes off it .. Just so amazing and true . The live performance of this song at the Almaty concert was the most incredible live performance I’ve ever seen in my life . Dimash is an absolute musical genius . Thank you so much for this reaction it was very emotional!
Yes. Also, this one from the "premier" of the song, at the interreligious conference hosted in Kazakhstan, for which Dimash prepared this song.
ruclips.net/video/ucEQb2PfnoM/видео.html
Yes 👍
He didn't sing it live in Almaty. It was a phonogram, a studio recording
Hell yes! The live performance of One Sky at the Almaty concert (not the fan cam version) is the most breathtaking and soul stirring performance....and apparently Dimash had already been singing for about 3 hours.....truly mind blowing
Yes the live Almaty version is a must watch!
Impresionante reacción muchas gracias por compartir esta obra maestra de Dimash hay que hacerlo viral en estos momentos tan difíciles de la humanidad simplemente gracias
#thankyouDimash!! Thank you, John, for this amazing reaction to our beloved Dimash!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏👏👏💫💫💫🥰🥰🥰

الفن والصوت النقي والمغني الوحيد هو ديماش اعتذر لكنها الحقيقة لم اسمع مثيلا لهذا الصوت شكرا لك للاضاءة على هذه التحفة شكرا جون
Across Endless Dimensions by Dimash, a video accompanying a film I believe, will blow you away as well.
Видио живое есть!! Посмотрите, это потрясающе!!!
Herşeyiyle mükemmel,ona hayranım ❤❤
Live at Almaty concert! Friggin' amazing!.
Duele volver a mirar el vídeo,pero a la vez nos recuerda el grandioso trabajo de DIMASH y que en nuestras manos está cambiar el mundo . Nuestro príncipe siempre por la PAZ. Gracias por reaccionar a este VERDADERO ARTISTA❤
Muhteşem bir anlatım . Çok duygusal , düşündürücü . Dimash ses efektleri ile muhteşem bir eser çıkarmış . 👏👏🙏😔
The title itself - “Story of One Sky” - is thought-provoking. Before Islam became the predominant religion in Kazakhstan, the nomadic people of the steppes followed Tengriism with Father Sky and Mother Earth as deities. Like many old pantheistic religions, its core tenet was the “unity of all things” since everything in the natural world is animated by and connected through spirit. This concept of spiritual unity lives on in Kazakh traditions, music and poetry.
It is subtitled "Requiem” to commemorate and mourn all those who have died in war and in the struggle for peace, but it is also a vision for the future and a call to action to save ourselves and our world. Raised in an observant Muslim household, classically trained in music, educated in world and Kazakh history, and immersed in literature and folklore, Dimash has a deep understanding of sacred music and the mystic teachings and symbolism of the major world religions as well as ancient traditions, so it is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14, 2022, at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions in Kazakhstan. The written statement at the end of the video is directly from the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed jointly on February 4, 2019, by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad el-Tayeb. Dimash met and spoke with both men at the September meeting.
Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel. I only touch on some of what struck me in the symbolism. The music is a dissertation all by itself.
The pendant is an interesting element. It is a gnomon from a maritime compass sundial. This triangular blade is attached to the sundial, casting a shadow on the sundial while the perforated pinhole projects the image of the sun onto the dial. It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. (Thank you, Snarky Tart for that information). In the MV, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers, but it is distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through rendering it useless as a compass. When we lose the original intent of a symbol by twisting it into something it is not or by just paying lip service, it no longer has any spiritual meaning. At best it becomes a useless prop, at worst it is used to mislead and manipulate people.
Dimash interweaves the past and the present, the ancient and the modern, throughout this work. Alluding to more contemporary music, with the phrase "We have passed the moment of Imagine," Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony to be achieved by erasing our differences and giving up our identities. The world is complex, cultural roots run deep, and people experience life quite differently across the globe. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must find common ground while respecting our differences and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way.
The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment, we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war. We see that happening every day around us.
The Piper's call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let's remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Many of us remember the story of the Pied Piper of Hameln from our childhood. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start war, who do not support war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against?
The burning sign "Waldenberg" is a reference to the end of WWII when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht close to the end of the war in April 1945 in the part of Germany where I grew up. I have seen the aftermath of war as I was born a few years later when much of Germany was still in rubble. Waldenburg is only 28 miles from my hometown and was completely destroyed. There are no winners in war. Dimash is right: war is death.
The last movement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant and punctuated by the sound of Tibetan bells that create a sacred space, reminding us that death and birth are both sacraments and are interwoven in the tapestry of life. The birth underground is reminiscent of the sacred cave Akmeshit (White Mosque) found in Southern Kazakhstan, an ancient place of power said to heal diseases and cure infertility. Dimash's vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking up the sacred mountain together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. With the mountain scenes, Dimash alludes to another sacred place in Kazakhstan on the Kazakh/Russian border, Ice Mountain, which is referred to by the local Altai residents as “The dwelling of the Gods” and by Buddhists as the location of the Shambhala, the legendary country of Gods.
When Dimash’s character decides to avenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening of the sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storms of his emotions that buffet the pilgrims. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the "sacred womb" of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy, and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war and suffering by choosing life. Dimash's scream of “we’re choosing life” is also that of giving birth: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity as exemplified by the images of the children and the newborn baby.
The blowing of the shofar signals God's mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right: in the Zohar, the book of Jewish mysticism, it says: “When human beings repent of their sins, they blow the shofar on earth. Its sound ascends On High and awakens the heavenly shofar, and so mercy is aroused and judgment is removed.”
There is a very moving scene where pilgrims bury a man who perished on the journey. Men of different faiths come together to honor his life and his passing. This reverent expression of love and unity stands in stark contrast to the commander’s harsh pronouncement that it is war that unites people.
Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash's character in the form of his son becomes a spiritual guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage, race, and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect.
Carl Jung wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
This is what Dimash has done with this work; he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time. As the hymn goes: "Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me."
Dimash is a very spiritual person, so using the symbols and sounds of the major world religions is fitting for this work. For those who do not subscribe to any faith tradition, I want to mention Neil DeGrasse Tyson’s latest book “Starry Messenger” where this agnostic scientist calls for the need to develop a cosmic perspective along with the rationality of science to solve the intractable human conflicts that so often lead to war. It is on that HIGHER ground - be it in religion, humanism, or science - that we can find COMMON ground.
Thank you for such an informative comment full of context and important, intricate details that I failed to see watching the video ❤
Please also watch Dimash doing this number live in his Solo concert in Almaty. I get really “PO’d” when some haters say he could not do this live. He did just that snd it’s breathtaking to watch!! You won’t regret it! Thank you. Love your Channel!
👍🥰😍🌹❤️
#Thank you Dimash 💜
Now, let's watch and listen to this soundtrack at the Almity concert. He sang all parts of this.
♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
Hi John,
Thank you! 🌹💐👍🥰❤️🇨🇦
hello, watch on his chanel Almaty concert part 3 to see him perform this live. The Story of One Sky starts at minute 23:30.
Well you can see it in the Almaty Concert, thas was something else!!! Peace for the world , but more important for the Children
Oh yes there is an official video of him singing this at the Almaty concert. It will leave you in tears. Dimash doesn’t just talk the talk, he definitely walks the walk 💛🎶🎶🎶
He didn't sing it live in Almaty. It was a phonogram, a studio recording
@@rada-tut He did sing it live in Almaty
@@rada-tut Oh boy, he did sing it live. Just watch the fancams if you don’t believe the official videos. He’s putting every bit of his body in it. At the end he’s completely exhausted. If there’s a single performance on earth that i know for sure isn’t lip-synced, it’s this one. It pierces the screen.
@book8583 he definitely sang it live at Almaty. He also sang it live in Malaysia as I was there to see.
@@rada-tutПНХ.
I experienced that song live. OmG!! I cried my eyes off, because the beauty of the song and the depth of the lyrics got too overwhelming. This is, according to my opinion, the best and most versatile in both composition and vocals that a human being ever generated. Dimash is a genius!!! I will never stop to admire his abilities. What an artist! Whenever I will have the time and financial means I will visit his concerts - even if the concert took place on the north pole. Experiencing Dimash live is indescribable. I got addicted.
I'm with you. It was the most profound moment - it honestly felt as if angels descended on that stadium. Only those who were there will understand that I'm not exaggerating.
@@Heatherjoyb exactly!!! But we don't care, do we. We got that most precious experience!
@@DQdearH yup! And about the North Pole, I'll be there too :)
Hi John. If you go to the Almaty concert 2022 Part 3, on his RUclips channel, timestamp 23:17, you’ll find a live version of Story of One Sky with a beautiful, heartfelt introduction from Dimash with CC. You thought this was amazing, wait til you see the live version. Can’t wait to see your reaction. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
He worked 3 years on this composition, he is the producer, director of this video. Bravo Dimash!!!
And ofc he's a screenwriter of this film👍
Dimash is not the Director of the MV, it is Alina Veripia (she's Russian). 🙏😊
He wrote the scenario but he wasn’t the director.
And composer
9:33 FACTS!!! He is friends with Jackie Chan, so we may get our wish :) And we've already seen him acting during "Golden", "Be With Me', and other videos and programs.
Thank you for the great reaction. The live performance of this at the Almaty concert is really worth watching, so emotional. ❤️
El alfa y Omega de la música
Привет из Баку !!!
Супер постановка,он шокирует своими способностями,своим ангельским голосом и неземным талантом!!! Побольше бы таких молодыз талантов,радующие своим иворчеством!!!❤❤❤
wacht Dimash concert in Almaty,you will be shock when Dimash sing this song👍🥰🇧🇷
Dimash, tiene su propia productora. Él no se vende a ninguna compañia discográfica. Gracias por tu reacción. Ahora escucha la versión en vivo en Almaty, deja el alma en el escenario. #graciasdimash
Это настолько сложное и технически и эмоционально музыкалтное произведение, что без слез и полностью покрытым мурашками с головы до ног, слушать НЕвозможно!
This, this is why we love him so much. Not just because of his vocals but because of the way he uses his platform to spread a message of peace around the world.
He loves humanity in all its vibrant colours, shapes and forms. If you could only see moments from the Almaty concert, he stands on that huge stage and looks over the crowd often with the gentle smile of a loving father watching his children, there was something so innocent and yet so godlike in his whole presence that night.
The third part of that concert (which is on his channel) is where you will find the best live performance.
And yes, he can act his ass off! We've longed for him to do a movie but he's of the opinion that artists should stay in their own lane unfortunately. Although if his friend Jackie Chan were to ask, he probably wouldn't say no.
Btw, he's such a great actor that you probably didn't realise that he appears in the video right from the first appearance of the soldiers, he's the one creeping along under the shelter, emerging to shoot the enemy soldier and the one following the soldier into the building and ending up getting shot in the arm.
#ThankYouDimash . Unbelievably beautiful, soul stirring, masterpiece. We’re choosing life!
اشعر بها لانها مشاهد عشتها قلبا وروحا في راسي وعيوني لسنوات من الحرب البغيضة في بلدي اتمنى السلام للجميع من قلب سوريا الحزين لا زلت اشعر بالصوت النقي القوي الذي يلامس الروح شكرا جون
#Thank You Dimash
.#ThanksDimash music video is a work of art by Dimash, a plea for peace 🕊️ and without religious intolerance, a work that deserves respect from all of us. John, I really like your reactions to Dimash, they are always very respectful and caring, thank you so much ♥️♥️🇧🇷🇧🇷
Dimash’s masterpiece! He is just the greatest vocalist of this generation! I can’t stop admiring his voice! He deserves to be known worldwide! Thanks for your reactions to Di! We, the dears, appreciate that❤
Dimash - Metatron. The Voice of God.
Loved this reaction. Thank you.
Yes Almaty concert you would love it ❤🎉🎉🎉
Impactante
❤❤❤ be love dears ❤❤❤
I cry every time😢😢😢😢
Thank you for your great reactions 💐💐💐🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🇧🇷
В самом конце, когда он ведёт людей к свету так и хочется сказать, посланник Божий. Поразительное выступление.
Solo dimash puede hacer algo de esa magnitud
#thankyoudimash I've been waiting for you to get to this video. I knew it would touch you in so many ways, like it has me. The part where Dimash holds his murdered daughter still breaks me up. (I have two daughters myself and can only imagine how I would react under such circumstances, but I believe Dimash absolutely nailed it.) As always, I was blown away by his vocals, but the artistry with which he composed this masterpiece and his acting ability was sheer perfection!!!! Thank you so much for responding to this, John! You can view his live performance of this at ruclips.net/video/IH7hhSw6CfU/видео.html It was recorded at his Almaty concert in Kazakhstan last fall. It's a fan cam, but it's pretty good.

Hola 👋 john!! Gracias a la reacción de ésta gran obra, un gran Requiem, Épica, Hermoso trabajo de mi amado Príncipe!!! Gran obra de arte,lo que siente sú cuerpo,mente, alma y espíritu,nos representa en éste video desgarrador,pero verdadero,por guerras provocadas por culpa de hombres siniestros con ambiciones desmedidas de poder!!
Pero no se trata sólo de éso.Secuencias qué vivimos cada día, cómo seres humanos, luchas continuas, vida donde deberíamos buscar la paz, en nuestros día a día, sin acepción de religiones,ni razas,ni color, un gran mensaje para la humanidad,hoy sufriendo mucho por distintas causas,un mensaje de lo qué provoca, la falta de paciencia, mansedumbre, empatía hacia el otro, y ésto se comienza desde nuestros hogares. Después de la tormenta sale el sol??? Bueno el nos quiere decir que tratemos de no llegar a la tormenta,porque ahí llega el sufrimiento. La muerte injusta de los inocentes,en cualquier acto,es muy triste, pasa qué el mundo no está valorando los afectos,vale más lo material, las nimiedades, que los sentimientos. Vemos a todo tipo de personas,de razas, de credos en busca de un nuevo mundo¡¡,Siempre se puede encontrar la paz!!!. Es sú mayor preocupación, LA Paz!!!
Es el mayor y más joven predicador de la Paz mundial. Y en éste video enfoca lo que provoca no sólo la guerra, sino nuestros malos actos,de distintas maneras, qué con el tiempo terminamos mal cómo humanidad! Falta de unión, hermandad, amor al prójimo!! Qué decir de ésta canción, con una tremenda, hermosa letra y ésos gritos desgarradores, pidiendo que ELIJAMOS LA VIDA!!! y sú voz tan grandiosa cómo siempre,nos seguimos sorprendiendo!!!!
La mejor obra de arte,el mejor Réquiem de éstos tiempos!!! Que merece ser premiado, por los mejores premios, en todo el mundo 🌏, porque todo el mundo debería verlo, y debe ser reconocido,.
Gracias mi querido Príncipe, sos un ejemplo para muchos!!! Felicidades te amamos tús Dears del mundo 🌎!! Dear Mónica Leguizamon de Buenos Aires Argentina!!!
ELEGIMOS LA PAZ!
ELEGIMOS LA UNIÓN!
ELEGIMOS LA VIDA!!
🤴🌟🙏😔🇰🇿🇦🇷🌍🕊🕊🕊🌹🌹🌹😃🥰😘🤍🤍🤍♥️♥️♥️
Me encantó tú estupenda reacción, tús grandes palabras, todo éso y mucho más quiere decir Dimash en éste video que le llevó componerlo 3 años, antes de la guerra actual 😢, yo creo que los poderosos se quieren adueñar de todo y no les importa quien muere, no les importa nada.
Gracias y no sé si vistes en el recital en kasajistan, lo cantó, te lo recomiendo, lloras, temblas, muchos más que el video. En vivo creo que escucharlo es algo, irreal!!! Abrazos!!!❤❤
Спасибо за реакцию!
This Painful Masterpiece is Dimash’s soul pleading to the World. I have no words, as my heart, body and soul are aching for Dimash. I believe Dimash Qudaibergen Has thousands of souls in him. How can one young man be so in tune in everything he does. His passion for The world, his country, his parents, his siblings, his friends, and especially his music is extraordinary !!! We are all so blessed to be a part of his outstanding journey!!I am so proud to be a Dear!! 💐💐❤️❤️
Thank you Dimash, for staying true to yourself!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and reactions of Dimash!!
We’re Choosing Life!!
I know that a lot of fans will tell you to listen to the Almaty concert version. That performance happened before the song was officially out. I don’t think Dimash planned to sing it live. Also he performs this song towards the end of a three and a half hour concert so he is careful with his voice. If you watch Anatalya recent concert he sang about half of it live and it is gorgeous! There are only fan cams for this concert right now. It’s worth it though to listen to Dimash’s concerts because his live performances and improvisations are stunning
OMG thank you 😊 why is everybody saying that was sang live... I just can't believe it. Part live in Antalya and almost all in Armenia, I've been in all 3 concerts and definitely prefer the live, less perfect versions 😊
@@loveyourlifenow I think because the fans at Almaty heard it for the first time before the MV was out they thought that. Sometimes people don’t realize how important it is for a musician to show the perfect production of a musical creation where he wrote the music for the vocals and the instrumental music. If he sang it live it wouldn’t be the same perfect finished work which he worked so hard on.
Escucha la versión en vivo en el concierto de Almaty, ahí la presentó
Il faut absolument voir son live au concert à Almaty
Il est impressionnant
Merci pour votre réaction
Have been really looking forward to your reaction to this particular epic by Dimash.
Try the 3rd part of his Stranger concert in Almaty, scroll until you come to this song.. it is actually truly amazing to see him do this live (use his concert video, as there is a fan cam video, but the official footage is a 1000 times better)
Dimash is art himself......... and he singing this song live... ufff-.....you must see it...thanks John #thanksdimash
Es maravilloso en Almaty... reacciona a ella
PARA MI ESTA ES SU GRAN OBRA MAESTRA !! EL MEJOR DIMASH!!
Thanks a lot for your wonderful reaction and positivity! You can watch Dimash - The story of one sky LIVE in the video called "Almaty concert part 3" since 0:25 min. 😉 It's legendary!
Wonderful, Beautiful, Amazing
I have seen this video before and I am out of breath every time!!!
Such an important video!
#Dimash
#ThankDimash ❤
Truly one of his finest compositions.
Story of one sky is a masterpiece.. beautiful and powerful.. we're choosing Life 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Посмотрите другую версию этого шедевра на концерте в Алматы. Живое выступление Димаша ещё более впечатляет .
Привет из Баку ( Азербайджан)
Здравствуйте, думаю посоветую посмотреть ему это выступление, бац, вы это уже сделали. Крутое, лучше, чем клип, не чего не отвлекает от Димаша, потрясающее.
Es importante cuando recomendamos un video de Dimash poner el link para que puedan tener acceso más fácilmente, de lo contrario puede ser que no lo busquen.
Согласна - всегда смотрю эту песню именно из концерта.
Dimash is a phenomenon Dimash is a genius bravooo ❤
У Вас замечательные реакции. Димаш ГЕНИЙ. Живая версия к просмотру обязательна. Спасибо и лайк 👍💖
РАХМЕТ за реакцию 👍❤️🌍
Yes he is, the one and only! He’s really genius and very very multi talented artist and hard to find the similar artist like him. I have watched this MV many many times and never fail to make me in tears every time I watched it. Thank you for your reaction, I can see your genuine expressions and how much you adore Dimash just as we all fans do here. 🙏🏻
#thankyoudimash Yeah, the vocals are breathtaking for this song. I sometimes feel lightheaded near the end because I keep forgetting to breath during so many exciting metal and metal like parts😂😂😂 You are right about how one could get so much out of this video with more History and World Religions knowledge. I remember that the long horn blown by the Jews has some important meaning but I forget what it is. Rusty on my world religions knowledge as I don't use it much in Horticulture. I think the symbol the 3 children had was some kind of navigation tool. Anyway, great reaction. How many artists sing 13 minute long songs? Dimash is the best💐💐💐💐💐💐🥰Hugs from a Canadian Dear🇨🇦
Hola John...Si hay un video en vivo ..ojala que lo veas...saludos y exitos
These are my views on this amazing masterpiece Story of One Sky - I have watched this many times and still find things out that i never thought of amazing video and i have said it before if anyone could bring peace i strongly believe Dimash could make it possible. This needs to be shared worldwide to show people there is another way. War is never the answer because the only ones to suffer are the innocent. Rewatched the song of Dimash today one line stood out to me One of the most profound lines in The Story of One Sky is the line "Learn to share the love, Not shares" Not shares meaning stop making money out of war rich people have many shares in companies that profit from weapon manufacturing making them richer while the innocent suffer sadly this is why war exists. MONEY, GREED and POWER. The boy who was drowning was (Dimash's character as a child) made the necklaces that were given to the girl who grew up to be (Dimash's pregnant wife) and the boy who saved him who (grew up to be the military leader), possibly out of jealousy. The military leader waged his war The part in the video with the little girl and the people in the hallway were Dimash's family who had been wiped out the little girl whose body he picked up was his daughter, the baby that was born was his son who grew up to be Dimash grown up at the end!!! The Dimash at the end can also be seen as Dimash in the afterlife leading others to the light in peace. Something else i noticed is in his dying breath he sang (We're Choosing Life) as he finally passed away now that is powerful
Dimash performed this for Congress of Religious Leaders including the Pope.
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥Dimash❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I'm waiting for the live version! get a tremendous pleasure!
This is MESMERISING🙏🍃💚💙🍃🙏...#thankyoudimash
Hermosa reacción👏👏👏
For Dimash ❤️✨️❤️
For your reaction ❤️✨️❤️
There is absolutely a live performance of this in concert and it’s just as epic and stunning.
It's on the full Almaty concert in Part 2. It is truly electrifying and amazing to watch! ❤️
Thank you John for your heartfelt reaction! It’s a true Masterpiece from Dimash! He composed the music and wrote a script for mv. I highly recommend to react to his live version of this song There you really can concentrate on his voice. It’s no less impressive than mv. He premiered it on September 23, 2022 at Almaty concert. It’s in the 3rd part of the concert. His performance was unbelievable! He left his heart on that stage! And the most important message for all of us- “We are choosing life!”, “We need peace!”.
Al vídeo tenés que verlo varias veces para interpretarlo y creo que lo han hecho de varias maneras, todas las voces que escuchas las hace Dimash. Cada vez que veo el vídeo, le disparan y lo veo cae al agua sufro 😢 Es el más grande. Es un mensaje de paz, lo que tanto desea el ser humano. Pero mientras en este mundo haya gente con hambre de poder, que venden armas, eso no será posible. Desde Uruguay abrazo de una dear 🥰🙏🌹❤️🇺🇾
Siiiii, ve a su página, la cantó por primera vez en Almaty en su concierto Stranger, ahi te llegará hasta las lagrimas, deja tooooodo en el escenario.
OBRA DE ARTE 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 mi niño lindo Dimash ❤
I highly and strenuously recommend you watch Dimash perform this at his Almaty concert.
Неповторимый, неземной голос!!!! Димаш , браво!!!!! Респект реакции!
Thank you for your great and empathetic reaction. Now you know why many Dears adviced you to wait to see this.
In The Story Of One Sky he sings the whole soundtrack himself.
The video shows once again that Dimash is an absolute genius. In singing but also as an actor (and yes, we all want to see him badly in a whole movie) and as a storyteller. The powerful message conveyed by this video is more relevant today than ever. I think this video is mostly about the message. This message however, is for the first time more important than his vocal abilities. His voice is just the tool in this video. But simply unbelievable. His singing is indescribable and I don’t have the words to express it adequately. But it is only the mediator of what this video is about. This is so heartbreaking and sad and an awesome masterpiece. Pure goosebumps. You probably have to see it more than once to understand it.
He worked on this composition for three years and also wrote the screenplay.
The premiere was on September 24, 2022.
As some have mentioned, this video should be seen by many people. It may be very brutal for some. But let’s not forget that for many, including children, this is everyday life in some countries. And Dimash relentlessly shows us how ugly war is.
Dimash was the little boy who was drowning in the beginning and he gave the necklace to his childhood friend (and future leader) and the girl. The girl on the beach was his future wife. And she gave birth to her second child in the video. The littel girl who was shot was Dimashs and her first daughter. Desperation and maybe revenge has led him to kill his former friend. But violence always breeds violence, and because of this, not only is the leader dead, but so is Dimash. Dimash in the last sequence of the video was the baby that was born and now as a grown man unites people of different nationalities and religions for peace.
It’s funny how very few reactors realize that the soldiers shot in the arm at the beginning of the war scenes was Dimash.
If you want to know more about this video check out dimashnews. com
Btw, Dimash has received an award from Pope Francis personally at The Congress of the Leaders of World and Traditional Religions held in Kazakhstan on September 13, 2022. He performed the song there in connection with the congress before the premiere. Can you imagine, a Muslim receiving an award from the head of the Catholic Church. How wonderful is that🥰.
He also gave a speech at the first Central Asian Media Forum, in which he once again strongly advocated peace. You can see it with English subtitles.
ruclips.net/video/2C55a3mvfP/видео.html
The official live version of his concert (on September 23, 2022 in front of 30,000 people from 68 different countries) is available on his channel Almaty concert part 3 from minute 23:15 with a short speech in which he performed the song for the first time. You should definitely see this. There are subtitles in English
ruclips.net/video/YP1r9wlkmHU/видео.html
And he's been singing it in all his concerts ever since. But always a little different.
Greetings and love from Germany❤️
You need to watch Dimash live version of this at Almaty concert.
11:02 HAUNTINGLY MESMERIZING!!! Dimash is indescribable!!! Just when you htink you've heard it all he manifests something new!!! He REALLY is a musical genius!!!
#ThankYouDimash
Es precioso.Dimash es increible.😘😘😘
Poignant movie with exceptional vocals. Great reactions. Dimashified
Dimash is protraying humanity here
I saw him do this live 2 weeks ago in Malaysia...tears...so, so emotional and so incredibly brilliant. You can see it live from his Almaty concert as others have said. Thankyou for your reaction and spreading the message of peace❤ 🇦🇺
Димашу давно пора присудить высшую премию мира или Гремми..
#ThanksDimash . You are heavensend. And so are you John, thank you!
#thank you Dimash
And thank you John for your reaction. You are totally correct; there is so much to unpack in this video, composition. And you will absolutely LOVE Dimash’s live performance at Almaty. It is one of the most visceral performances I have ever seen. Dimash literally leaves his, deep within his soul, pleas for acceptance, tolerance, love, peace all on the stage. ☮️🙏💐❤️
I choose life and I will follow Dimash anywhere!
We love you! And love all your reactions to Dimash 🤗❤️. Thanks for helping us to also keep it real. Love your usual insight. This is something that Should be given a Nobel prize, but he is far beyond man-made, ego driven awards🤔🌍🙄. You know he does this live, right? Please, please react to that one also🙏😟😇❤ #WeloveyouDimash!!!🌠
Emoción 😢 al ver por enésima vez esta obra de arte del más grande: DIMASH.
