Hello! I'm Andy - a semi-professional singer-songwriter from the UK, based in Germany. I'm a solo artist as well as vocalist of a rock band. I also teach English Language at university level, and this semester, due to covid-19 restrictions forcing an online semester on us, I did a special online version of my course "The Language of Songwriting."
Alongside a bunch of songwriting challenges, part of the final project included the option of making a reaction/review video to a song that my students particularly enjoy, discussing what elements of the song(writing) are special to them. I never give out tasks I'm not willing to do myself, so I recorded one of my own (Ghost Love Score by Nightwish, also on my channel). I put it on RUclips for fun to see whether there was interest in this kind of video, and I was really pleasantly surprised at the positive responses! So I've gone ahead and made some more!
In contrast to the many wonderful reactors out there, I'm reviewing a song I already know well. My reactions, therefore, are not as spontaneous or sensational as those of professional reactors ;-) Would you like more?

I think we’ve all been in that emotional state in some degree.... One of the best performances of all time. Your French pronunciation is very good btw. Caruso is another great cover by Lara. I’m thinking of going to her Quebec show in October.....maybe
Thank you, Lut! I love Caruso - this seems to be one of the more popular suggestions for my next Lara review! And thank you - it's been over 20 years since I spoke French semi-regularly, but I'd love to get back in contact with the language more!
@@andyjonesofficial Hi, please I'd love to see you deconstruct and react to this Lara Fabian - "Dites-Moi Pourquoi Je L'aime" live 1998 performance: ruclips.net/video/-85T-iR7dfc/видео.html Many thanks
Then you must also hear her idol singer : Johnny Hallyday

Johnny Hallyday 1 million persons at his concert at the Eiffel Tower when he was alive. And when he died even more people came to his funeral, a funeral that even Former French president funerals could not come close
I already said in another video that I am very surprised that finally Lara is being recognized for the talent she has been showing us for so many years. Her career suffered a sabotage, so, it's good to finally see justice for one of the best vocalists I've heard.
Great reaction. One of my favorite parts is when she erupts in laughter right after the acapella which adds to the feeling that she’s going off the edge mentally without breaking the tempo.
Moi aussi jadore ce rire un peu fou qui montre quon tombe vrt dans une folie désespérante!!!! 👍👍👍
Oui, et juste avant, sa respiration comme un long sanglot fou…
When Serge Lama told his friend Alice Dona about how much he was hurt, she composed the melody in a few hours, and when he heard it he wrote most of the lyrics in 20 minutes, because he needed so much to evacuate the pain he's been secretly feeling for years. Lara Fabian interpreted it beautifully, Serge was really touched when he saw her performance, he admired her.
No thing 2 addet
I believe that Lara added the line "Cet amour me tue" and when Serge Lama heard it he loved it so much that he now sings that line in his own performances. From what I understand, her version is his favourite. Which is saying something when a song is so personal.
@@stephanieellis5399 they both respect and love each other, he sang her song ‘je t aime’ to her, adapting it to what he thought she would love to hear and she indeed did and said his version is better than hers. Anyway, 2 great artists with nothing but respect and admiration for each other.
@@daviddieudonne7829 yes, I saw that. He made her cry. So sweet.
Hello from France,
Your analysis is one of the best I have seen. I know the French language is complicated because there are a lot of nuances and details which are not easy to distinguish but you decrypt the lyrics so well. 👍
In only some words : Good job and thank you for this video !
This song is devastating. Lara completely encompasses the character. Her vocals are perfect and stunning. Thank you for your analysis and words.
Andy, this is by far the most complete reaction to Lara's "Je suis malade" that I have seen (I must have seen over a hundred of this song alone). You not only captured the vocal, but the story telling, the nuances in the writing as well as the emotional delivery that Lara is known for, you didn't miss a thing. Bravo my friend.
she can speak 6 language and she can sing in 12 language . she's amazing 😎👍
Thanks for your reaction, it is very interesting to hear you explain the lyrics mechanics and how the instruments add to the deepness of this performance.
This live is just totally crazy, from one song to another. Lara Fabian at her best : a diva.
I look forward to discovering more!
I watch a lot of vocal coaches. Your intelligence and knowledge set you apart. You’re teaching me what to listen for, and how to better appreciate music.
You are underrated. Subbed.
What a great review.
You've highlighted some points I haven't heard in other reviews.
Thank you 👍
Being "complètement malade" is a french espression that you often say to someone to tell that he or she is going crazy. It's not an expression specificaly related to love, but here she's singing that she's sick (because of love) to the point of being crazy. In french we also have an expression that is to be "malade d'amour" (to be so in love that you're sick and/or crazy). A bit like "lovesick", in english. In fact in this song "sick" really means "in love".
Lovesick was the conclusion I came to as well - glad to hear I was on the right lines!
Not at all. In this case, she is really sick (in depression). In french to be lovesick is translate by "J'en suis malade" et non "Je suis malade". Dalida was well known to be in a major depression. She commits suicide in 1987 and attempted to his life multiple times from 1967 to 1987.
@@ML-sm8zc And yet, "Je suis malade de toi" means to be lovesick. Malade in french as a double meaning depending the context and this song is obvioulsy playing with this double meaning. If you only chose to see one meaning you somehow cut yourself from the poetry of the song.
@@TMBTM it’s the « maladie d’amour »…it can seem like mental health, but it’s more to be sick from not being able to get out of a heartbreak…I’ve been there before.
New subscriber. Thank you for this lovely review!
I think that Lara Fabian's live performance of Je Suis Malade touches nearly everyone in one way or another.
She completely understands this song and you can really feel the pain and agony in every single word that she sings.
As a singer you have to be able to emote (project) but at the same time not let your emotions take over completely - so you can get through the song without breaking apart.
That is so hard.
Lara truly has amazing storytelling skills.
Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪
i have watched lots of reactions/reviews of this song by lara, and yours is the best of them. thankyou!!!
Thank you, your analysis is so interesting, that it feels like a music lesson with a great teacher who makes us understand all the essential elements of a song. In Lara Fabian's performances, there is always this little surplus of emotions that makes us forget to listen to the music as it should. Thank you from Montreal.
Merci, Pierre! I'm happy you enjoyed it!
This was a really good analysis, thank you for sharing! When you mentioned the use of similie in the lyrics it sort of dawned on me that most songs in the french repertoire rely heavily on those, like Jacques Brel for example in "Ne me quitte pas" and "le port d'Amsterdam" or Aznavour with "La boheme". I guess it is just the way great lyrics are written in french. the use of imagery gives a greater impact and add to the emotion that the song-writer is trying to convey.
for an amazing song that she written the lyrics for i would suggest Broken Vow from the same consert
She wrote ? Serge Lamas wrote the song and sang it first. then Dalida sang it.
@@THEREALZENFORCE Read again. They didn't talk about Je suis malade.
One of the best live performances ever, period. Unbelievable. Caruso should go next ! 🙏
That was an excellent reaction. I can't count how many reactions to that song I have heard so far, but you made me hear/notice things that had escaped me until now. Thank you!
You delivered the most accurate and brilliant analysis I’ve heard so far (and I’ve heard quite a few). My first language is French and I knew Serge Lama long before this specific performance . Even if you missed a few very subtle lyrics/gesture golden nuggets, you mostly got it right . She’s totally amazing. This gives the best performance I experienced in my life, and I’m not that young! Great analysis! Thanks!
Fantastic in-depth analysis as always! Keep up the good work 😊
You must react to her duet with Johny Holiday "Requiem for mad man"
Yesssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
brilliant analysis, you understood everything
Every time I listen to this song, I get tears in my eyes and shivers!
amazing! Thank you very much!
Thank you, Vered!
thank you for your explanations, your vision of the interpretation of this song and others, it is always very interesting with your gaze as a musician we feel and understand even better both the way of singing and the writing of the song and accompanying musicians' work, you do a good job 👍and I still admire the interpretation and the voice of Lara Fabian😍
Hey, j'ai adoré ta réaction face à cette chanson. Pour moi c'est l'une des meilleures chanteuses au monde. Regarde "requiem pour un fou", Johnny Hallyday feat Lara. Johnny est nôtre Elvis français. Live au stade de France , 80 000 personnes. C'est fantastique.
J'ai adoré ta vidéo. Merci 😘
Splendid reaction!
The best review of this song so far!
I admire your analysis and how detail you describe the whole proces, the song, the music, the drum. You are also impressive to remember all of that. Ccol
Extraordinary reaction. Congratulations. New suscriber. Greetings from Spain.
Excelente tu reacción. Me gusta que hayas reparado en la profundidad de la letra y los recursos del autor. Por lo demás, la actuación es maravillosa y no había observado el aporte de la guitarra al final Muchas gracias.
The lost love in this song isn’t a lover, it is Lara’s Mother. While Lara was born in Belgium, at a young age she moved to Italy. There she grew up living with her Mother & Grandmother . Lara was very close to both, but in the lyrics she gives us strong hints. She is describing her emotion’s, are as a child when her Mother would go out at night. The difference is that she knows her Mother is truly gone, she is truly left alone, and it has made her sick, completely sick, perfectly sick. Pain is the emotional place she sings from in this song, according to Barbra Streisand. She asked Lara where she went while singing this song. Barbra said, that is deep.
One of the best analysis. Well done
you may be good to hide your emotions instead of crying them, but during the performance, I looked at your face and we can read you pretty easily as the emotions it you (sorry for my english) and I think you're the best reviewer I watched! Thank you!
I understood everything ! And I really agree and apreciate that you speak about Serge lama ´ s lyrics in a so intelligent way. She ´ s tallented so much but THIS song is a masterchef to me. Bye ✌️
If this is you being inarticulate, then a lot of reactors need to learn from you. You are my favourite reviewer/reactor. Thank you so much. Lara is the greatest singer on planet earth.
You're too kind, than you Alain!
This performance simply destroys me.
I would love to comment but even knowing this song I couldn't get through the second phrase without crying. Never happened before ...I think the more I know it the more it gets to me. I find myself waking up with Adagio running through my mind and heart. I'll be back! Best wishes.
This song has originally been written and interpredted by Serge Lama. In purpose for himself, it had a true meaning regarding his own Life. He was married but wasn't anymore into this official relationship, he was having a relationship outside his failed marriage, but the woman left him, then he wrote this song... in the 1980's, he will find back this woman who left him during a time...
Here his performance, which is I find is outstanding too... Many french and francophone singers have interpreted this iconic and famous emoitional song... many of them have "broken their teeth" on it... Only few performed it well : Serge Lama of course, Dalida because she had a true reason to interprete it too... and sure, Lara Fabian. There exists also a very beautiful version in Italian by Ornella Vanoni... See forward, I put the 3 links, just have a look, and you'll see what I mean.
This emotional song has even deeper Lyrics in french and unfortunately, the english translation doesn't, can't, give it justice... At this level, Lara Fabian don't perform the song, she personifies it, she is the song.
ruclips.net/video/HDbpZpm9j9c/видео.html - Serge Lama ... look at him, especially at the end, he's truly moved by his own song and words. He was like living this nightmare.
ruclips.net/video/8wOaMqC5n7s/видео.html - Dalida in one of the most emotional rendition...
ruclips.net/video/sCMa9hBQ3i4/видео.html - Ornella Vanoni
Cette chanson n'est pas...une chanson... Elle a été une thérapie face à un drame vécu. Son langage corporel n'était pas voulu... C'était Lara, tout simplement. Votre émotion et vos réactions ont été sincères. Merci pour elle.. 🇧🇪
Bonjour.
Je vous suppose francophone, c'est pourquoi je commente dans ma langue.
C'est la meilleure analyse que j'entends de cette chanson.
Merci
Cordialement
Lara is the GOAT. Great reaction!!!!
Yours is the best review of Je suis malade that I've watched. It is complete and articulate. Bravo Mister Andy and thank you. From a Quebecer.
The best analysis of all that I heard of this song, by far. Thanks
Thanks so much, Horacio!
I love your analysis !
I've seen many reactions to this masterpiece performed by Lara, and by the way your are the only one so far who talks about the musical band and the fact Lara is so well accompanied !
I think you should watch that so emotional other live song "je t'aime" (ruclips.net/video/qO3b-MyyTZg/видео.html), with french and english lyrics.
You'll love it !
Thanks and cheers from France.
Dom
I agree. Andy, your reaction to this video from your dual perspectives as a singer and a songwriter would be particularly poignant.
Thank you Dominique! I try to look at performances as wholistically as I can to provide a new perspective, since most reactors concentrate on just vocals. With Lara singing, I admit it's difficult not to! I'll look into your recommendation, thank you!
It's been a pleasure to watch your excellent analysis. Your knowledge of all that's going on in this song is impressive!
what a performance she masters emotions communicating it to the listeners.
Great analysis and - like others - your French pronunciation is very good. I did like your honest bit of self-insight when it comes to crying.
Hi, I got interested so I subscribe, well done so far hope you will continue doing that. Keep up the Good work with interesting people and nice analysis
Best analysis I have seen for this song. Absolutely spot on!
Lara IS just a jewel for coaches, how to show , in 4 minutes, a mastery of Scenic vocal techniques
Too bad I can't leave more than one thumbs-up ...
I watch your reaction again and it's still great. 😉
Andy, another fabulous reaction and analysis to, in this case, a classic song and performance by Lara Fabian. When you played the ending over again I actually heard the guitar you were speaking about. Andy, I'm just a music lover and my ears and my heart tell me what I enjoy listening to. But, may I ask you a question in particular about this performance? I understand the band has a tremendous obligation to do it's part in creating a musical sensation to not only compliment the vocalist but provide the audience with a sound that can produce goosebumps among the listeners. The question: How much do the musicians get into Lara's performance?
Or, do they just "do their job"? I couldn't help but notice at the very end of the song the piano player actually jumped out of his seat to hit the last note.
That's a really interesting question, Robert! It's a shame we don't have better quality resolution on the clips so that we might see the musicians' faces a little better and have more than the musical output and body language to work with. It feels like the drummer, guitarist and pianist are really into what they are playing and were probably on a larger number of Lara's tour dates; the string players are likely booked for special concerts such as this.
I'm sure there is a mixture of both in the live music industry. Session musicians are partly there to earn a living and partly there through the love of music, ideally especially the music of the artist they are accompanying. One wonderful example of this is Berit Fridahl, Heather Nova's lead guitarist, who has performed on her albums and tours for a couple of decades now.
Hi, I'm french and I love other songs that you should watch and react could be "fou d'amour" a duet with Johnny Halliday and "Tu es mon autre" an other duet with an other great singer Mauranne.
Thank you for your reaction
Lara Fabian made dozens of shows and clips of her numerous songs, I wonder why every youtubeur in the world reacts only to Adagio and Je suis malade. A real lack of curiosity !
"Je suis malade" is a song written by Serge Lama for Dalida in 1973. She suffers major depression and was suicidal. She commit suicide in 1987.
That's why the interpretation of this song is so moving. Dalida try multiple times to commit suicide. It was well known in France. She didn't support he suicide of his lover Luigi Tenco after his song was not selected at the San Remo song contest in 1967. This was the beginning of multiple drames in Dalida's life. Serge Lama wrote this powerful song. There are no much singer who can interpret it in a moving manner.
EXCELLENT CRITICISM!
Best reaction I have ever seen, you sir are a genius! ^^ Instant subs
Lara's version of Perdere l'amore is phenomenal as well.
Thanks for the tip - I'll look into that!
Brilliant Review (slow clap good) 💋 Ty 4✨Lara ... was hoping you’d do this, but it was better than I’d anticipated! 🤍🇺🇸dear
✨Subscribed (4 hearing us) 🙏🏼
Thank you, Tica!
I should have liked you to notice all her audible breath intakes, especially when she was singing quietly at the beginning, at one time even a shaking breath. to emphasize her emotions! All in all a very sensitive review! Thank you!
Thank you, Frank! I know that there are a lot of vocal coach reaction channels that concentrate on vocal technique, so I didn't want to repeat that too much, instead focussing on a more holistic view of arrangement, performance and lyrics. The breathing is of course really important in Lara's performance, also in Adagio. I can maybe mention that in my next Lara video!
@@andyjonesofficial I appreciate your angle, as it helps me understand the whole performance better. In her concerts she has always chosen excellent accompanists and the musicians who play with her seem to bring out her best. I am a big fan of her body, hand and arm movements, and suggest the 2018 Je T'Aime @ Microphone partly because of that but I also think you will find the composition of the band and style interesting!
Great analysis, probably the best I saw for this song 👌
On dis que Lara chante comme Céline mais cette performance appartient à Lara et puis quand vous soulignez la performance de l’orchestre elle est de mon pays le Québec.Merci pour vos bons commentaires Lara est arrivé au Québec dans les années 90.
Great reaction thank you for sharing 👍😉
Ella es asombrosa, su calidad vocal e interpretativa me asombra frecuentemente.

Amazing review once again ! To be honest, nearly all songs from this concert are outstanding. While I'm there, if you need versions of the videos with much higher quality, I tried to restore the entire concert in HD here : ruclips.net/p/PLV-BfzP9ln4xyPy8l43ag7hd20S9PeNiE
It was a lot of work, but I think I reached a decent level of quality, just to share with other Lara fans, because the original quality (VHS) was really too low. Kind regards from France.
ty for your time with french singers, i hope you will look the emotionnel show with Jean-Pierre Ferland (writing song) with Celine Dion and Ginette Reno. Québec city 400th anniversary
i think i watched a hundred reacts-to-Lara Fabian videos and i'm still searching for someone who reacts to the kind of tremolo in the word "soir" during the a-Capella
Serge Lama wrote some beautiful lyrics. To be fair, in France we're very much focusing on the quality of lyrics. Rhyms, imagery, metaphores, etc, etc.
Very good and multifaceted analysis.
Lara Fabian - Mademoiselle Hyde (live 2016)
Caruso would be great to do next, I love this and Adagio but Caruso is my favourite! :)
I love Caruso, too! I remember listening to Pavarotti sing it back in the 90s and Lara's version is beautiful as well. It's on the list!
you haven't reacted to caruso first but à je suis malade a another beautiful song' she's great
Yes, Je Suis Malade was the most popular Lara request so far, but now it looks like Caruso is first in line!
👍you will see there will be many other reactions to have on the universe of lara among other things I also advise you to see the film " madame zhiwago " I think some clips will please you
Sur aucune des vidéos personne n'en pas mais en français le mot "Malade" est très connoté. Par définition "Malade" veut dire "qui est en mauvaise santé" mais aussi "Qui souffre de troubles organiques ou fonctionnel", si bien qu'on peut dire d'un fou qu'il est psychologiquement malade. Par exemple en France lorsqu'on parle d'un tueur en série on dit que c'est un malade, dans le sens qu'il a perdu la raison. Lorsque vers la fin du morceau Lara Fabian se met à rire tout en chantant, on a comme l'impression qu'elle lâche prise, qu'elle perd la raison, qu'elle devient folle, une malade.
AT LEAST a stranger says that this song is from Serge Lama. Thanks for him.
Ne Alice Donna
Impressionnante LARA ❤ et super réaction 👍
As a french You gave a good analyse about metaphors she used because it's not easy to translate correctly lyrics French to English. it could help to understand better for not french language people sens of this song. Good work on that. By the way the lyrics originally was created by Serge Lama in 70's so this is why sometimes lyrics could be weirdo for a woman (like "I don't smoke anymore" etc.).
Patrick Fiori was her boyfriend and there love is finish when she has siinging this song.
lara fabian is just doing a cover the real performer is Serge Lama composed by Alice Donna!!! Listen to it and you will see the difference when a male artist performs it!!! Lara Fabian is an incredible Artist !!!.
Very good, insightful and interesting reaction. :)
Respect for the analysis, for real ! I'm French, I've known this song by Mr Lama for years but have had the chance to "rediscover" it through different reactions on YT, as well as through this specific interpretation by Lara. Like I had never realized how deep and beautiful the lyrics were, and though the translation is mostly correct, the meaning's here, I assume since it's written in my maternal tongue, the impact is even stronger. Lara, the band ... I guess there's nothing to add, the video speaks by itself. But yeah, so far I might have watchted 15 or 20 videos about reactions, from "average" people as well as vocal coaches, some songwriters too, but YOUR analysis was damn interesting ! Probably the most interesting to me, actually. I guess that when a video lasts more than 20 minutes and it feels like it's lasted for 5, it says it all... :) Where you cut the video and the way you turn back, just perfect! Though it's my field, I found your vocal and musical analysises damn relevant and helpful to even more understand the music. We can feel the passion and that you know what you talk about! And yeah, as a dude with a literary academic background (I also studied phonetics and stuff), who has been trying to write his own sh**, you opened my eyes on small details i had forgotten, and I definitely (re)learned a lot. So, just : Merci! Your video has made me feel like writing... ;) Keep it up! Peace, dude!
Wow, this is a real compliment! Merci beaucoup! :-)
@@andyjonesofficial De rien! ;) C'est totalement sincère! (btw, not too important but I meant "Though it's NOT my field, I found your vocal and musical analysises relevant and helpful...") Also, I took the liberty to listen to one of your songs, "I don't have your voice" and ... I really felt it! Simply beautiful. And beautifully "simple". A guitar, a voice and lyrics coming from the heart, nothing more is needed to make a song and a performance damn moving. So yeah, glad to have discovered the artist as well! ;)
ps: I don't know if that makes sense, but it reminded me a little of a song I had not listened for years - Eric Bibb's "Circles". Maybe the guitar, I don't know... A-ny-way! :)
I RECOMMEND the song " El perdón " by Diana Navarro
The lyrics were written specificaly for her. And the situation she was in. Love from Québec, Canada. (I'm going on memory so might be wrong.)
Mi favourite song is Otro Amor vendra spanish version of I will love again
Très bonne analyse. (Et bonne prononciation française, Andy!)
Merci beaucoup 😊
I'm only 6 minutes into the video and I absolutely love the way you explain and the way you give us viewers your perspective of what you "see" / "hear" which let me tell you, not many channels do. This is my first ever video I'm watching of you and I'll definately subscribe!
I would love for you to try and review Jessie J's cover of Killing Me Softly/Purple Rain/My Heart Will Go On from THE SINGER competition!
Thank you very much and keep up the wonderful work!
Thanks so much! Interesting songs there - I feel Purple Rain is a really tough cover to pull off, especially by a non-guitarist! But I know that show has an amazing house band. I'll put these on my list!
@@andyjonesofficial
She also sang “ I HAVE NOTHING, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU, AIN’T NOBODY, NEVER TOO MUCH plus many others.
I personally think Killing Me Softly is a flawless example of how dynamic and versatile she is. The performance itself starts with a very jazzy feel to it and it gradually builds. The staging is very simple but very effective. It also shows off how dynamic she is going from very intimate and soft to a very grand finish.
Purple Rain is a track that in small parts she made her own but was also very respectful of the original version! This performance proves how much passion, dedication, skill and talent this woman possess!
I'm planning a live stream as soon as I hit 2000 subs (hopefully soon) - maybe I can react to one of those performances live for you if you're there!
@@andyjonesofficial That would be amazing!!!! I've got the notification bell set to all notifications on for your channel. Looking forward to it
Some of us are recommending more recent Lara. One example is "Je T'aime@Microphone" which she performed in Quebec in 2018. Je T'Aime is one of her earliest and best known hits, but she always revitalizes her songs when she repeats them and this performance with a small band is worth the time!
Interesting! I recently did a double review of her Adagio Italian version looking at performances that were a few years apart to see how her interpretation had developed in the meantime. Maybe this could be something I could try for Je T'aime!
@@andyjonesofficial Great idea! Also Je Suis Malade 2000 to compare with her live performance at the Moscow Kremlin of
Je Suis Malade 2010 when she was accompanied by the Israeli master pianist and collaborator, Giora Linenberg.

I said Lara! 😸 Maybe my British pronunciation is different... The 'au' in Laura is pronounced as 'or' in British English - I think you've seen my review of Adagio as well... I'm thinking about Caruso or Je T'aime next ☺️
In the same emotional range , you can like to take a look to Ginette Reno , "Je ne suis qu'une chanson" ; ruclips.net/video/cB7Jp3Dt0U8/видео.html . Ginette Reno is an older french-canadian singer and was an inspiration and a model for Céline Dion and Lara Fabian . You can also look for Ginette Reno duo with Céline Dion ; "Un peu plus haut" : ruclips.net/video/YEB2C9Wx0Mw/видео.html . Or Ginette duo with Lionel Ritchie "Hello" ; ruclips.net/video/ZDqlbHvNc8I/видео.html .

As a kid I heard Lama singing it. It interesting to have a woman perspective to it as a performer.
Hey Andy! I'm French and I know Serge Lama... It's a song about alcoolism! Lara not sing about a lover but about alcool. Serge Lama was an alcoolic and wrote this song for that! ;)
Thank you Cyril! I've read a number of different theories about what the song was really about for Serge and I kind of like the mystery around that. But in Lara's version, it seems to be clear what she interpreted it as being about 💔
@@andyjonesofficial Magical lyrics with many different interpretations... Finaly it's a great song!!! :)
Je te conseille Daniel Balavoine - SOS d'un terrien en détresse et également Daniel Balavoine - Mon fils ma bataille.
Si j'ai bien compris tu est auteur alors, tu devrais trouver ces textes magnifiques :)
Discover Celine Dion .. she is georgous and amazing singer 😍
I know Celine, of course! 🤩
Broken vow is so good too
Check out Diana Navarro "El Perdon". You have a version with the lyrics here ruclips.net/video/pr3wlOkRHBg/видео.html .Very emotional song and awesome vocals.
Your review is too good. Watched it twice.
Thank you! ☺️🎧
Hello i like your video. Is it possible that you react to an other french artist ? I think at Mylene Farmer : maybe Avant que l'ombre live. It's an amazing performance. Really. Bye ;).
Lara Fabian brought this song to highest level
