People saying i've stopped it too much. i received an email from the copyright holder this morning saying they don't agree this is fair use as I don't stop it enough! They want me to either stop it more often, or cut out the bits where I don't talk. It is also really sad to see such negative comments taking place here from fans of Lara.
It's not so much the stopping, as when you stop. You're familiar enough with music, aren't you, to recognise the end of a phrase? So... wait till the end of a phrase, a lyric, a chorus. There are natural pauses in a song; even in a Lara Fabian song - much as it may pain even the most ardent fan, we can admit that much. I think the main issue with anyone who complains about pausing isn't so much the frequency (unless s/he simply isn't familiar with the fair use necessities), but the jarring aspect of interrupting the song in the middle of a note, for example, or a word, if you will. It does take a little more concentration to wait until the singer finishes a phrase or, as in the example I gave in my comment, the a cappella section, but it makes for a much smoother experience for the viewer. I appreciated your observations very much. I just kept getting taken out of the experience by the choices you made vis a vis WHEN you chose to make them; it seemed random and haphazard, and the performance itself was made less enjoyable for it. (A criticism which may seem bizarre coming from someone who's seen this particular performance upwards of two hundred times - but there you have it, see the original definition of "fan." 🥴) I hope this doesn't come across as disrespectful. You seem taken aback or hurt by the comments complaining about the stoppages, and I thought I might expand on MINE, at least, to let you know what I meant by it. It was by no means a vitiation of your entire reaction video. To the contrary - if I didn't think there was worth in it, I wouldn't have bothered leaving a comment at all. Best, Maryscott
It's quite strange, I have seen lots of other reactions on the same video where reactors don't stop that much and they seem to be still online with no problem. Don't know how the YT algorithm work but that's sad they bother you with that.
@@steph7793it’s changed a lot over the years too, especially with them auto scanning every upload. So this one got scanned and notified me there was copyright content (expected), but then I get the email from the copyright holder (Tunecore) saying they’ve reviewed it and I’ve used too much of the original track to be considered fair use. To be honest I’m just going to delete is and not listen to any more Lara which is a shame.
@@SR-mm2wz yeah or maybe respond them by sending them the other ones that have not been bothered where they don't stop that much... maybe... because if they bother you on that one they could bother you on other of your videos, if it happens not to come 100% directly from original video owner... let us know if you want examples, me or other may be happy to provide this.
@@steph7793 Also just to add, I did think about your other comment about channel name more seriously and you will now see a poll on the channel about changing it. I do listen to comments, and although sometimes i may come across as quite dismissive in my replies, I do consider what people are saying to me.
I always wondered it's either a very poetic image, or what if her love is a sailor? Even Navy? Would explain a lot of the lyrics. Of course it works either way.
“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973. This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …). When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours. The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes. Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad. But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s. At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version. She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone. Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on. The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) ruclips.net/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/видео.html is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella. Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic ruclips.net/video/SyILdRAOS88/видео.html
Lara is a lyric Soprano who has sung in 12 languages, 4 of which she is fluent in ! Besides the power in her voice, every syllable of every word, in every sentence, of every lyric (no matter which language) is clear and precise in every song !.Lara is the only singer on planet earth to sing from her soul to our soul. Top vocaliste in the world...
More information on Lara Fabian: Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Shirley Bassey, Lisa Fischer, .... In my personal opinion, she is even the best. There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 10,000+ attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register. So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence: • she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for 200+ songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music, and is at the source of the melodic line. • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none • she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens. A quick background on her and her career: She is belgian, her father is flemish and grand mother on father side is dutch, but she also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( the father of her mother is from Detroit). She had been raised in Sicilia first for 7 years then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages. She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory. She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She only moved away from opera to pop because she is first and foremost a songwriter. After her Eurovision participation in 1988 (4th), she really started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada. She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She moved to Sicilia end of 2022. She became very famous in Quebec in the early 90s with several double platine records and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music). In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and was number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US. This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on). But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan. She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance. She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), Linda Eder, … With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there. Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her. She is Dimash's idol: • I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep. • He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara. Out of my mind I can list: ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version) ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know") • She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love". • And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva). • Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara. Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …) ○ Floor Jansen (Adagio), ○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime), ○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie), ○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow), ○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace), ○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow), ○ Charice Penpengco (Adagio), ○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Emily Linge (Adagio) ○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Pauline Aguirre (Adagio)), ○ George Peris (Broken Vow, Humana), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Wanessa Camargo (Love by Grace), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anne Sila (pas sans toi, Tu es mon autre), ○ The Canadian Tenors (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio), ○ Sarah Naura Irbah (Mademoiselle Hyde), ○ Elisabetta Rinaldi (Adagio), ○ Alyona Yarushina (Adagio), ○ Marie Payet (Pas sans toi), ○ Laurh (Immortelle), ○ Inger Lise Hope (Adagio), ○ Håkon Sønsterud Tollefsrød (Broken Vow), ○ Flora Tandi (Bambina), ○ Cindy Chao (Yeliel My Angel), ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Abraham Mateo (Adagio), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Russel Watson (Adagio), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Annointed (Love by Grace), ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she had a very successful tour in Canada and Europe. I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was spectacular as always. On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania. She just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour again in Europe and France in 2025. She just released late November a brand new album, "Je suis là" (I’m here), a pure gem, packed with beautiful songs with deep moving lyrics. She just released her new album titled "Je suis là" on November 29, 2024 The first song released of this new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was delivered late January 2024 and has been a success in France. The second “Je t’ai cherché”(I looked for you) was released early october 2024, another success! I also recommend "Je suis de toi" and "une fleur à la bouche". Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
French speaker here!! I love this song and love to see foreigners react to it! I'd say the boat and flag analogy means that she can't escape, everytime she considers going somewhere far from them, they end up being the destination of the trip, or it's their "boat", meaning she'd have to depend on them even in order to get away. Also, "parfaitement" can indeed be translated by "perfectly" but in this context, it's a way to insist on what's just been said, to convey "this is the actual truth". So, "yes, I *am* sick, this is the truth", and not "I'm sick in a perfect way". Actually, I think the best translation for this expression in this context would be "you heard me right".
Hello i'm French. Thanks for sharing your experience with this beautiful song wrote in the 70.. by a song-writer and singer Serge Lama (he composed the music) and Alice Dona wrote the lyrics for him. The song was a response to a heart broken after 2 years of a pasionated love story, between Serge Lama and a women, who was married but renonced to leave her husband. So, french language can be very poetic and some words have many meanings. "Parfaitement" means "perfectly" but also "absolutly"..."entirely"...is ut more clear ti you ? Serge Lama's father was an opera singer, he travelled a lot and his wife wanted to follow him anytime....the young boy Serge stayed alone durind the tour.
So as a French speaker you can rule out her love is a sailor or in the Navy? Would explain many things in the lyrics but of course it can be more poetic rooted in French expression. Always wondered.
@@MolnarG007 non cette chanson date des années 1970 et a été écrite par Alice Dona (parolière très célèbre) pour Serge Lama, auteur--compositeur-interprète... Cette chanson fait référence à une douloureuse rupture amoureuse après 2 années de passion entre Serge Lama et une femme mariée, qui refusait de quitter son mari pour suivre et épouser Serge Lama. La langue française peut être très poétique, et les auteurs utilisaient des métaphores, des images pour décrire des sentiments, des situations. Si vous ne connaissez pas Serge Lama, écoutez ses chansons (certaines très nostalgiques) comme "Le ballon rouge", qui font référence à son enfance. Fils d'un chanteur d'opérette Serge Lama se retrouvait seul les nuits car sa mère, très amoureuse et jalouse, suivait son mari lorsque son mari travaillait dans les théâtres....une référence que l'on trouve dans la chanson "Je suis malade" : "quand la mère sortait le soir, et qu'elle me laissait seul avec mon désespoir" (texte original). Lara Fabian a très légèrement modifié le texte en féminisant le pronom, comme si elle parlait d'elle. Ce changement a été fait avec l'accord de Serge Lama qui a été époustouflé par la sublime interprétation de Lara Fabian.
Lara does this with every performance she gives - whether it is her own song or performing a song written by somebody else. She is just breathtaking with her vocals and her emotional delivery. And yes, she is a very empathic human being - I really liked that you figured that out just by watching her perform this song! Please more reactions to Lara! Thank you!
Lara Fabian, it is all about the beauty of her voice A very beautiful, very strong but always velvety voice in all her 4.2 octaves range . An endless breath controle, cleas singing, emotional and expressive performances, effortless singing, a joy to look at ...A voice you can listen tot the whole day . This song is original written for a male singer, Serge Lama ..Talking about smoking and drinking wiskey ... Lara is famous in Canada, Brasil, Europe, east Europe and in Russia . Belgian from origine, rased in Italy as a child and later on near Brussels Belgium . Moved to Canada at 19 and has the Canadian nationality. Lara speacks fluent 4 languages and sings and records songs in those languages.
This has been over 24 years now the most perfect example of live performance and live singing front of an audience, while living the song itself completely. When you are so so so good in vocals you don't have to prove anything in that department, you can just concentrate to the song, lyrics and the message. This is the result. And Lara is the master to do that. 😎TTKing
I really enjoyed this psychological analysis of this French classic. Lara is an amazing performer with a stunning voice. She does to songs what method actors do on films: she really incorporates the song. Honestly, no other singer moves me the way she does.
She sings to our souls. She is amazing. This is not an original from her. But she makes you feel it is. There are many other songs that are originals from her that are also amazing. Everything she sings is.
This is a cover of a 1973 song by Alice Dona. I am so gld that you have discovered the imitable Lara Fabian who is master of bringing emotion into her music. She was born in Belgium to a Belgian father and Italian mother but lives mainly in Canada. She is an inspiration to many, including Dimash and is fluent in six language and performed in almost 20.
A pesar de que está canción no la ha compuesto ella ,ella compone la mayoría de sus temas. Ella siente cada palabra y esa pasión ,ese sentimiento lo transmite desde muy adentro, ,para ella es importante esa transmisión entre ella y el público. Lo a emoción es parte de su manera de actuar.Lara Fabian es una gran voz y sobretodo una gran intérprete.😊
The composer of the lyrics is Serge Lama (French singer). The expression "perfectly sick" refers to finding out that the girl has just married someone else

Lara is the ultimate storyteller. In the French, it is "completement" which translates as completely. She has experienced lots of pain and is able to channel it into her music.
I recommend you a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she is a singer that transmits a lot when she sings and has incredible melismas. She is also very versatile when it comes to singing. She sings different musical styles. Best regards

I watch all of the RUclips reactions to Lara as she is my favorite French artist. Yours is one of my favorite commentaries, so thanks for the psychological analysis (I teach French and argumentative essay writing, so I enjoy a deeper way of looking at performances such as Je Suis Malade). For me, as a bilingual French/English speaker, "parfaitement malade" in this context means that the being sick is all encompassing (In grammar, the "perfect" tenses mean that they are a finished idea, so being perfectly sick would mean that it is a done deal, couldn't be any more complete. Also, the "all boats carry your flag" phrase means that everything (not just literal boats) reminds her of him, to the point where she can't go anywhere or do anything without feeling trapped by his presence in her thoughts. Thanks again...I subscribed to your channel and look forward to future analyses~!
parfaitement malade should have been translated in absolutely sick or completely sick, It's a way to emphasize. Also while malade would usually be understood as being physically sick it can also be used to exclaim when someone does or says something completely unhinged : Mais tu es malade ! Said in much the same tone she used towards the end when she said : c'est ça je suis malade more in a speaking voice than singing. As for the mother she "sortait le soir" would mean she went out at night to party or something similar, so her mom went out at night and left her alone it reads more like neglect.
Serge Lama (the OG) was in a restaurant with his friend Alice Dona and he talked about the relationship he was involved in with a woman and the way he felt miserable. It was a toxic relation. Then they wrote and composed this song together. Very touching reaction, thanks...
Lara's concerts have been and will continue to be a benchmark for the French-speaking world. This is one of my favourites "En toute intimité" Full English translation For our English-speaking friends ruclips.net/video/NMHym4N4UXo/видео.htmlsi=tzZQPJ6kgG0qEAro&t=4 This concert has it all The quality of the image Lara's incredible voice Fabulously performed, intimate music And full English translation as close as possible to the lyrics This concert is Lara's soul A must-see
Much changes when you know that this was written from a male perspective. And I am not convinced the other person is a villain. Lara's gift is that we can all feel she is singing from personal experience which allows us to relate. She is a marvel.
Performing, emotion, gave everything, expression, musical theatre, singing about her life. Yeah you got it. Welcome to "THE RING", La Rein, a Legendary storyteller. Imagine the world's greatest voice, a lost treasure in America, combined with a Master Class Thespian. Why have you never heard of this woman? That’s the question that 99 out of 100 1st time reactors at some point ask. You clearly care about emotion in the Musical Context. This journey, should you choose to pursue it, getting to know her will shock you. There are hundreds of Master Class vocal performances that await you. Create a Lara Fabian playlist. Find out about her relationship with Dimash and many other rising stars that were inspired by her. Find out about her relationship with Sony Music. There’s an army (including the two foot soldiers directly below my comment) waiting for you to fill it up. I think the over/under on how many Lara Fabian reaction you do before you are infected with the incurable “FabiaVirus” is 3. I’m taking the under. Robert S. is damn good at these predictions. Let’s see if he takes the over or the under.
It's the story of a woman who is madly in love with a man she lives with, but this man hasn't paid attention to her for almost two years and is living his own life outside of their relationship.
Nice reaction Lara is a world class performer. This is a cover but she made it her own. I suggest Caruso from the same concert, it's another heavy emotional song that she masters
For me, “perfectly sick” is, in addition to what others have said (perfectly = absolutly), a figure of speech we like in France. Not quite an oxymoron in this case, but adding two words that have nothing to do with each other to support the drama. Another example I really like in this song is the phrase “je créverai seul... avec moi”, I will die alone... with myself... 😎
Thank you for focusing on her facial expression after her performance. This is Lara - her God-given gift to interpret lyrics of song ANY and make it her own...regardless of the background, where it comes from or who composed it... I won't say more because you get everything you need on this subject (Lara Fabian) from our very dear friend Eric Sicard down below in your Comment section. I really like your reaction. Looking forward to further reactions to more Lara Fabian songs.
🇨🇦 Had you fooled ! You thought it was about her ! Lara is a generational talent that writes, composes, produces and arranges most of her own performances ! The emotional commitment was what you saw at the end, as she composed herself back into the here and now ! Lara's ability to really 'live' the lyrics enables her to cover any version of any song ! You are witnessing a continuous Master Class, every time you watch her sing ! She had you convinced that this was not a song written by a man, to explain his feelings, but that she was the victim ! You wish to know more about this talented artist, then read completely the comment(s) from Eric Sicard, our resident expert on all things Lara ! 🇨🇦
In this case, I think "perfectly" could have been more accuratly translated by "absolutly"... But "perfectly" sounds more like the French word she used.
Just a thought about fair use…. Can only use content I directly comment on other wise it needs to be completely edited out of the video. Video will be blocked otherwise.
The author of the lyrics and first singer of this song, Serge Lama, was married to his press secretary Daisy Brun in an open marriage. Then he met Anne Michelle Poitier who would later become his second wife. But Anne Michelle herself was married too. At the time they fell in love Anne Michelle pursued a singing career in French speaking Northern Africa so they had little time to spend together. Serge Lama realized that he is not capable to lead an open marriage, so somehow this song is not only about unlucky love, but also about adultery and unresolved childhood issues. When Serge Lama spoke with his friend Alice Dona he told her that this situation made him sick. Alice wrote a melody and gave it to him and he then wrote the lyrics. His record company didn't want to publish a single record about sickness, but they added it to his next album. Later Dalida, an Egyptian-Italian singer covered the song and it was a big success and so it became a French classic.
There is a girl in The Netherlands that reminds a lot of people of Lara Fabian. She's only 15y old in the video I'll mention below (currently she's 16y). Her name is Emma Kok and she has got a similar ability to communicate through music as Lara has. Her emotions on stage are real, she really means what she sings. The video starts with an introduction to Emma that provides the necessary context to why she's able to convey lyrics in such a way, please don't miss it. Emma is amazing. She started taking singing lessons only 4-5 years ago so there's clearly a lot of talent involved here. I hope you'll watch it: 'Voilà': ruclips.net/video/KdIhq1tb8Co/видео.htmlsi=5zlB09l_Y19T0E3Z Exactly one year later on the same stage she performed a song that was waiting for a voice like hers. The composer/writer wrote it 20y ago but never found the voice to match the song until he met Emma. And again it's a song that fits Emma story very well. She made it her own: 'Dancing On The Stars': ruclips.net/video/Ll1uR_HUOP8/видео.htmlsi=783hp9L10FVDN7g3
👉 Lara Fabian, *1970, is a world famous Belgian-Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, actress and producer. She is Belgian but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicily). She grew up in both countries and therefore speaks both French and Italian as her mother tongue. She was classically trained in singing, piano and song composition for 10 years (from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory. To this day she has singing lessons and trains several times a week. She started her career in Canada in the early 1990s. She now lives in Montreal and also has Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in 4 languages (French, Italian, English, Spanish) and has sung in a total of 12 languages. She has sold over 20 million records worldwide as of September 2017 and is one of the best-selling Belgian artists of all time. In 2000, Lara launched her triumphal procession in the US, but a falling out with Sony over her artistic direction and the will of Celine Dion's management to block her path to the US thwarted that plan. She therefore focused on Europe again and had great success there, expanding her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her many years of collaboration with Igor Krutoy. She's also a star in Brazilia. Many of their songs are now classics and are covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban... The US is now rediscovering her through her covers of Lara Fabian songs. She is Dimash's idol. He has covered some of her songs. She also wrote the lyrics to his song 'Your Love' and they finally met at Igor Krutoy's birthday party and sang Ti Amo Cosi (composed by Igor Krutoy) together with Aida Garafulina: 'Ti Amo Cosi / I Love You So' - ruclips.net/video/XaQFfqC3lnU/видео.html Lara is one of the best singers in the world, for me the most soulful singer! 👉 Suggestion: * Lara Fabian - Broken Vow - ruclips.net/video/eEujtnQNQKw/видео.html * Lara Fabian and Johnny Hallyday singing a epic rock-song - Requiem pour un fou/ Requiem for a Mad Man - ruclips.net/video/PHwIF6jmOCY/видео.html * Lara Fabian - Caruso - ruclips.net/video/ch7Dz2CIRy4/видео.html * Lara Fabian - Je t'aime - Live in Paris, 2001 - ruclips.net/video/IYnFwUbC9A8/видео.html * Lara Fabian and Igor Krutoy - Les feuilles mortes / Dead leaves ruclips.net/video/hCyej7qrwWY/видео.html * Lara Fabian - Llora (MV) - ruclips.net/video/8Fh35Foo9CA/видео.html * Lara Fabian - Adagio - ruclips.net/video/jKtNuLG5jAo/видео.html * Lara Fabian - Mademoiselle Hyde - ruclips.net/video/DuSDdjU4S8M/видео.html
Seems like an oxymoron. Two words in combination that shouldn´t be in one phrase. So that´s the struggle of the life she is singing about. Thanks for you thoughts.
To me, She is the Greatest. More than Streisand. More than Celine. Celine's husband convinced Sony not to promote her, because he wanted Celine to excell.
Maybe “perfectly sick” means the singer (genetically, because she is not the writer or original singer) doesn’t really want to get better or extract themselves from this toxic relationship.
Quel dommage de ne pas écouter cette chanson en entière et de s'interrompre à chaque instant, cela perd tout le charme de la chanson il faudrait tellement plus intéressant de l'écouter une fois en entier et de revenir dessus pour pouvoir commenter la chanson en détail
Anything I don’t stop and comment on I have to cut out due to fair use laws here. That would make for a very choppy experience for you and I would have to cut out half the track. Is that what you would prefer? You’re in luck though, there is actually a RUclips version which is just the show and doesn’t have my face in it at all, and it’s completely interrupted!
@@Connection_through_Reaction I think the point is there are hundreds of versions of this song that we are very aware of and while we completely understand the rules and regulations of RUclips, there are many ways to go through the songs and still be compliant, minimizing the number of pauses. There are reactors that do not get altered stopped cut out by RUclips that go completely through a song and then comment after the song is over. I personally prefer something in between maybe two or three pauses with analysis afterwards. Others may have their preference. I just think that’s a good balance, by the way, your analysis was fantastic.
Those reactors are placing themselves at risk of court action. I’m not going to risk that. Just because they are doing it doesnt make it right. Edit I’ve actually in the last few minutes received an email from the copyright holder saying they don’t believe this is fair use as I haven’t stopped enough, so the video might have to come down anyway. The copyright holder wants me to stop it MORE or cut the video where I’m not speaking.
I liked your reaction, but I don't quite see the "therapist" aspect there, sorry. I would expect more complemental analysis. Maybe you would need to pause after listening the first time, think and add up more analytical speech. Edit : ok please ignore, you clearly mentioned this in your YT profile that you're not the therapist when reacting... then it's not really "therapist reacts" ;)
@@Connection_through_Reaction When I see "vocal coach reacts" I get loads of technical info from them most of the time. I think you should rename title by "Stu reacts" for intellectual honesty. Plain and simple.
Thanks for your feedback. Edit. Interestingly a lot of comments say there is too much of a therapist angle in this video. Shows how you can’t please everyone!
Wow dude, please turn the therapist/psychoanalysis psychobabble off and just enjoy the performance!! The pausing to breakdown the psychological implications of the lyrics etcetera detracts completely from Lara's performance and flow of the song. Also very self-serving and arrogant.
It’s almost as if there’s this thing called copyright and fair use that we have to abide by. Luckily for you there’s actually a video on RUclips that is just the performance and hasn’t got my face all over it so you can always check that out if you just want to see the performance.
@TherapistReactsOfficial You obviously don't grasp the concept of a "REACTION" video! People generally watch "REACTION" videos to garner how a singer/song effects the viewer on an emotional or other level. If I wanted to watch JUST Lara's performance I wouldn't be searching for "REACTION" videos! What you gave the viewers was not your "reaction" it was an unemotional, clinical and self-serving analysis that was completely inappropriate to this format.
Afraid fair use doesn’t work that way. Thanks for giving it a try. Have a good day. Edit : I’ve actually in the last few minutes received an email from the copyright holder saying they don’t believe this is fair use as I haven’t stopped enough, so the video might have to come down anyway. The copyright holder wants me to stop it MORE or cut the video where I’m not speaking.
@@Connection_through_Reaction Again, you've completely missed the point! I understand how "fair use works"! I'm not as concerned about the number of pauses, but what you discuss during those pauses. A "reaction" video carries with it the implication that you would talk about how the song/artist is making you feel emotionally, or the quality of the voice and/or performance. The lyrics play a big role if the song is an original. To bring a psychoanalytic perspective into that is gross, crass and just plain weird!
People saying i've stopped it too much. i received an email from the copyright holder this morning saying they don't agree this is fair use as I don't stop it enough! They want me to either stop it more often, or cut out the bits where I don't talk. It is also really sad to see such negative comments taking place here from fans of Lara.
It's not so much the stopping, as when you stop. You're familiar enough with music, aren't you, to recognise the end of a phrase?
So... wait till the end of a phrase, a lyric, a chorus. There are natural pauses in a song; even in a Lara Fabian song - much as it may pain even the most ardent fan, we can admit that much.
I think the main issue with anyone who complains about pausing isn't so much the frequency (unless s/he simply isn't familiar with the fair use necessities), but the jarring aspect of interrupting the song in the middle of a note, for example, or a word, if you will. It does take a little more concentration to wait until the singer finishes a phrase or, as in the example I gave in my comment, the a cappella section, but it makes for a much smoother experience for the viewer.
I appreciated your observations very much. I just kept getting taken out of the experience by the choices you made vis a vis WHEN you chose to make them; it seemed random and haphazard, and the performance itself was made less enjoyable for it. (A criticism which may seem bizarre coming from someone who's seen this particular performance upwards of two hundred times - but there you have it, see the original definition of "fan." 🥴)
I hope this doesn't come across as disrespectful. You seem taken aback or hurt by the comments complaining about the stoppages, and I thought I might expand on MINE, at least, to let you know what I meant by it. It was by no means a vitiation of your entire reaction video. To the contrary - if I didn't think there was worth in it, I wouldn't have bothered leaving a comment at all.
Best,
Maryscott
It's quite strange, I have seen lots of other reactions on the same video where reactors don't stop that much and they seem to be still online with no problem. Don't know how the YT algorithm work but that's sad they bother you with that.
@@steph7793it’s changed a lot over the years too, especially with them auto scanning every upload. So this one got scanned and notified me there was copyright content (expected), but then I get the email from the copyright holder (Tunecore) saying they’ve reviewed it and I’ve used too much of the original track to be considered fair use. To be honest I’m just going to delete is and not listen to any more Lara which is a shame.
@@SR-mm2wz yeah or maybe respond them by sending them the other ones that have not been bothered where they don't stop that much... maybe... because if they bother you on that one they could bother you on other of your videos, if it happens not to come 100% directly from original video owner... let us know if you want examples, me or other may be happy to provide this.
@@steph7793 Also just to add, I did think about your other comment about channel name more seriously and you will now see a poll on the channel about changing it. I do listen to comments, and although sometimes i may come across as quite dismissive in my replies, I do consider what people are saying to me.
"All the boats carry your flag" = "I see signs of your presence everywhere"
That's my favorite line in the whole song, it just breaks me every time.
I always wondered it's either a very poetic image, or what if her love is a sailor? Even Navy? Would explain a lot of the lyrics. Of course it works either way.
“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973.
This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …).
When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours.
The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes.
Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad.
But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s.
At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version.
She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone.
Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on.
The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal)
ruclips.net/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/видео.html
is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries.
The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella.
Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic
ruclips.net/video/SyILdRAOS88/видео.html
Lara is a lyric Soprano who has sung in 12 languages, 4 of which she is fluent in ! Besides the power in her voice, every syllable of every word, in every sentence, of every lyric (no matter which language) is clear and precise in every song !.Lara is the only singer on planet earth to sing from her soul to our soul. Top vocaliste in the world...
Over or Under?
More information on Lara Fabian:
Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Shirley Bassey, Lisa Fischer, ....
In my personal opinion, she is even the best.
There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 10,000+ attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register.
So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence:
• she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total
• she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for 200+ songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music, and is at the source of the melodic line.
• she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none
• she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens.
A quick background on her and her career:
She is belgian, her father is flemish and grand mother on father side is dutch, but she also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( the father of her mother is from Detroit). She had been raised in Sicilia first for 7 years then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages.
She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She only moved away from opera to pop because she is first and foremost a songwriter.
After her Eurovision participation in 1988 (4th), she really started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada.
She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She moved to Sicilia end of 2022.
She became very famous in Quebec in the early 90s with several double platine records and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music).
In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and was number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US.
This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on).
But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan.
She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance.
She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then.
Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), Linda Eder, …
With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there.
Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her.
She is Dimash's idol:
• I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep.
• He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara.
Out of my mind I can list:
○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer),
○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version)
○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know")
• She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love".
• And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva).
• Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida.
Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara.
Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it.
Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …)

NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version.
Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature.
In June 2022, she had a very successful tour in Canada and Europe. I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was spectacular as always.
On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania.
She just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour again in Europe and France in 2025.
She just released late November a brand new album, "Je suis là" (I’m here), a pure gem, packed with beautiful songs with deep moving lyrics.
She just released her new album titled "Je suis là" on November 29, 2024
The first song released of this new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was delivered late January 2024 and has been a success in France. The second “Je t’ai cherché”(I looked for you) was released early october 2024, another success!
I also recommend "Je suis de toi" and "une fleur à la bouche".
Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.
French speaker here!! I love this song and love to see foreigners react to it! I'd say the boat and flag analogy means that she can't escape, everytime she considers going somewhere far from them, they end up being the destination of the trip, or it's their "boat", meaning she'd have to depend on them even in order to get away.
Also, "parfaitement" can indeed be translated by "perfectly" but in this context, it's a way to insist on what's just been said, to convey "this is the actual truth". So, "yes, I *am* sick, this is the truth", and not "I'm sick in a perfect way". Actually, I think the best translation for this expression in this context would be "you heard me right".
Thanks helping me make sense of that. Thanks for commenting.
Hello i'm French. Thanks for sharing your experience with this beautiful song wrote in the 70.. by a song-writer and singer Serge Lama (he composed the music) and Alice Dona wrote the lyrics for him. The song was a response to a heart broken after 2 years of a pasionated love story, between Serge Lama and a women, who was married but renonced to leave her husband. So, french language can be very poetic and some words have many meanings. "Parfaitement" means "perfectly" but also "absolutly"..."entirely"...is ut more clear ti you ? Serge Lama's father was an opera singer, he travelled a lot and his wife wanted to follow him anytime....the young boy Serge stayed alone durind the tour.
And the « I had talent before your skin », it doesn’t mean « skin » but before « knowing you, or meeting you… or you being in my life »…
So as a French speaker you can rule out her love is a sailor or in the Navy? Would explain many things in the lyrics but of course it can be more poetic rooted in French expression. Always wondered.
@@MolnarG007 non cette chanson date des années 1970 et a été écrite par Alice Dona (parolière très célèbre) pour Serge Lama, auteur--compositeur-interprète... Cette chanson fait référence à une douloureuse rupture amoureuse après 2 années de passion entre Serge Lama et une femme mariée, qui refusait de quitter son mari pour suivre et épouser Serge Lama. La langue française peut être très poétique, et les auteurs utilisaient des métaphores, des images pour décrire des sentiments, des situations. Si vous ne connaissez pas Serge Lama, écoutez ses chansons (certaines très nostalgiques) comme "Le ballon rouge", qui font référence à son enfance. Fils d'un chanteur d'opérette Serge Lama se retrouvait seul les nuits car sa mère, très amoureuse et jalouse, suivait son mari lorsque son mari travaillait dans les théâtres....une référence que l'on trouve dans la chanson "Je suis malade" : "quand la mère sortait le soir, et qu'elle me laissait seul avec mon désespoir" (texte original). Lara Fabian a très légèrement modifié le texte en féminisant le pronom, comme si elle parlait d'elle. Ce changement a été fait avec l'accord de Serge Lama qui a été époustouflé par la sublime interprétation de Lara Fabian.
Lara does this with every performance she gives - whether it is her own song or performing a song written by somebody else. She is just breathtaking with her vocals and her emotional delivery. And yes, she is a very empathic human being - I really liked that you figured that out just by watching her perform this song! Please more reactions to Lara! Thank you!
Lara Fabian, it is all about the beauty of her voice
A very beautiful, very strong but always velvety voice in all her 4.2 octaves range .
An endless breath controle, cleas singing, emotional and expressive performances, effortless singing, a joy to look at ...A voice you can listen tot the whole day .
This song is original written for a male singer, Serge Lama ..Talking about smoking and drinking wiskey ...
Lara is famous in Canada, Brasil, Europe, east Europe and in Russia .
Belgian from origine, rased in Italy as a child and later on near Brussels Belgium . Moved to Canada at 19 and has the Canadian nationality.
Lara speacks fluent 4 languages and sings and records songs in those languages.
This has been over 24 years now the most perfect example of live performance and live singing front of an audience, while living the song itself completely. When you are so so so good in vocals you don't have to prove anything in that department, you can just concentrate to the song, lyrics and the message. This is the result. And Lara is the master to do that. 😎TTKing
I really enjoyed this psychological analysis of this French classic. Lara is an amazing performer with a stunning voice. She does to songs what method actors do on films: she really incorporates the song. Honestly, no other singer moves me the way she does.
She is the vocal Queen❤
I think your reaction, understanding and response to this song , was the best I've seen so far!
Thanks, glad you liked it.
She sings to our souls. She is amazing. This is not an original from her. But she makes you feel it is. There are many other songs that are originals from her that are also amazing. Everything she sings is.
Great reaction ❤️
More Lara please ❤️
Love Lara ❤️
Love from Denmark ❤️
This is a cover of a 1973 song by Alice Dona.
I am so gld that you have discovered the imitable Lara Fabian who is master of bringing emotion into her music.
She was born in Belgium to a Belgian father and Italian mother but lives mainly in Canada.
She is an inspiration to many, including Dimash and is fluent in six language and performed in almost 20.
Thanks for the additional info
A pesar de que está canción no la ha compuesto ella ,ella compone la mayoría de sus temas.
Ella siente cada palabra y esa pasión ,ese sentimiento lo transmite desde muy adentro, ,para ella es importante esa transmisión entre ella y el público. Lo a emoción es parte de su manera de actuar.Lara Fabian es una gran voz y sobretodo una gran intérprete.😊
The composer of the lyrics is Serge Lama (French singer). The expression "perfectly sick" refers to finding out that the girl has just married someone else
Here is a short list of suggestions to start a journey with Lara (I said short because she wrote or co-wrote 200+ songs in 4 languages)

Lara the best the queen ❤❤
In French ‘parfaitement’ also has the sense of ‘completely’ or ‘totally’ which is how it translates here.
Québécoise ici, parfaitement malade me semble vouloir dire que j'assume ma maladie
@ 👍 bien possible. Ou même un sens de vraiment où véritablement …..
Lara is the ultimate storyteller. In the French, it is "completement" which translates as completely. She has experienced lots of pain and is able to channel it into her music.
I recommend you a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she is a singer that transmits a lot when she sings and has incredible melismas. She is also very versatile when it comes to singing. She sings different musical styles. Best regards
Some news from Lara:
1• A new LP album is available since 2024/11/29!

Enjoy!
I watch all of the RUclips reactions to Lara as she is my favorite French artist. Yours is one of my favorite commentaries, so thanks for the psychological analysis (I teach French and argumentative essay writing, so I enjoy a deeper way of looking at performances such as Je Suis Malade). For me, as a bilingual French/English speaker, "parfaitement malade" in this context means that the being sick is all encompassing (In grammar, the "perfect" tenses mean that they are a finished idea, so being perfectly sick would mean that it is a done deal, couldn't be any more complete. Also, the "all boats carry your flag" phrase means that everything (not just literal boats) reminds her of him, to the point where she can't go anywhere or do anything without feeling trapped by his presence in her thoughts.
Thanks again...I subscribed to your channel and look forward to future analyses~!
parfaitement malade should have been translated in absolutely sick or completely sick, It's a way to emphasize.
Also while malade would usually be understood as being physically sick it can also be used to exclaim when someone does or says something completely unhinged : Mais tu es malade ! Said in much the same tone she used towards the end when she said : c'est ça je suis malade more in a speaking voice than singing.
As for the mother she "sortait le soir" would mean she went out at night to party or something similar, so her mom went out at night and left her alone it reads more like neglect.
Je suis malade, c'est absolument, tout à fait cela, je suis malade
Lara Fabian is masterclass and beyond. Thank you.👍
Maravillosa Lara ❤❤❤
Serge Lama (the OG) was in a restaurant with his friend Alice Dona and he talked about the relationship he was involved in with a woman and the way he felt miserable. It was a toxic relation. Then they wrote and composed this song together.
Very touching reaction, thanks...
Lara fabian : A Queen !
My favorite singer ❤
Lara's concerts have been and will continue to be a benchmark for the French-speaking world.
This is one of my favourites
"En toute intimité"
Full English translation For our English-speaking friends
ruclips.net/video/NMHym4N4UXo/видео.htmlsi=tzZQPJ6kgG0qEAro&t=4
This concert has it all
The quality of the image
Lara's incredible voice
Fabulously performed, intimate music
And full English translation as close as possible to the lyrics
This concert is Lara's soul
A must-see
Much changes when you know that this was written from a male perspective. And I am not convinced the other person is a villain. Lara's gift is that we can all feel she is singing from personal experience which allows us to relate. She is a marvel.
Performing, emotion, gave everything, expression, musical theatre, singing about her life. Yeah you got it. Welcome to "THE RING", La Rein, a Legendary storyteller. Imagine the world's greatest voice, a lost treasure in America, combined with a Master Class Thespian. Why have you never heard of this woman? That’s the question that 99 out of 100 1st time reactors at some point ask.
You clearly care about emotion in the Musical Context. This journey, should you choose to pursue it, getting to know her will shock you. There are hundreds of Master Class vocal performances that await you. Create a Lara Fabian playlist. Find out about her relationship with Dimash and many other rising stars that were inspired by her. Find out about her relationship with Sony Music. There’s an army (including the two foot soldiers directly below my comment) waiting for you to fill it up. I think the over/under on how many Lara Fabian reaction you do before you are infected with the incurable “FabiaVirus” is 3. I’m taking the under. Robert S. is damn good at these predictions. Let’s see if he takes the over or the under.
A brilliant performance from 12 years ago , now aged 54.❤
It's the story of a woman who is madly in love with a man she lives with, but this man hasn't paid attention to her for almost two years and is living his own life outside of their relationship.
Nice reaction
Lara is a world class performer. This is a cover but she made it her own.
I suggest Caruso from the same concert, it's another heavy emotional song that she masters
This is one of the best reactions I have seen to the lyrics of the song. Spot on!!! ❤
For me, “perfectly sick” is, in addition to what others have said (perfectly = absolutly), a figure of speech we like in France. Not quite an oxymoron in this case, but adding two words that have nothing to do with each other to support the drama. Another example I really like in this song is the phrase “je créverai seul... avec moi”, I will die alone... with myself... 😎
Ah I get it now, thanks for sharing
Lara❤
Your reactions are always amazing! Courage and force to you. I will be waiting for your next video ✨
50k Subscribers!! 🎉🎉
Thank you for focusing on her facial expression after her performance. This is Lara - her God-given gift to interpret lyrics of song ANY and make it her own...regardless of the background, where it comes from or who composed it...
I won't say more because you get everything you need on this subject (Lara Fabian) from our very dear friend Eric Sicard down below in your Comment section.
I really like your reaction. Looking forward to further reactions to more Lara Fabian songs.
🇨🇦 Had you fooled ! You thought it was about her !
Lara is a generational talent that writes, composes, produces and arranges most of her own performances ! The emotional commitment was what you saw at the end, as she composed herself back into the here and now !
Lara's ability to really 'live' the lyrics enables her to cover any version of any song ! You are witnessing a continuous Master Class, every time you watch her sing !
She had you convinced that this was not a song written by a man, to explain his feelings, but that she was the victim !
You wish to know more about this talented artist, then read completely the comment(s) from Eric Sicard, our resident expert on all things Lara ! 🇨🇦
Godess 👸🏼
The treat of a lifetime!!!
Sublime ❤
In this case, I think "perfectly" could have been more accuratly translated by "absolutly"... But "perfectly" sounds more like the French word she used.
thanks
Thank you for reacting on Queen Lara ❤.
Perhaps let a FEW moments of song go by without interrupting. Like, maybe, the entire section of a cappella. Just a thought.
Just a thought about fair use…. Can only use content I directly comment on other wise it needs to be completely edited out of the video. Video will be blocked otherwise.
"Perfectly sick" can perhaps mean "mentally exhausted."
The author of the lyrics and first singer of this song, Serge Lama, was married to his press secretary Daisy Brun in an open marriage. Then he met Anne Michelle Poitier who would later become his second wife. But Anne Michelle herself was married too. At the time they fell in love Anne Michelle pursued a singing career in French speaking Northern Africa so they had little time to spend together. Serge Lama realized that he is not capable to lead an open marriage, so somehow this song is not only about unlucky love, but also about adultery and unresolved childhood issues. When Serge Lama spoke with his friend Alice Dona he told her that this situation made him sick. Alice wrote a melody and gave it to him and he then wrote the lyrics. His record company didn't want to publish a single record about sickness, but they added it to his next album.
Later Dalida, an Egyptian-Italian singer covered the song and it was a big success and so it became a French classic.
It'a about toxic relationship, the man she loves is a toxic person, and the relationship is unhelthy, "completrely sick", dear therapist.
MY take on 'perfectly sick' is that the sickness did its job perfectly, taking over her heart, soul, life, her everything.
I hope you make juice wrld album soon
Slowly dripping the tracks onto the channel.
Take your time and thank you @@Connection_through_Reaction
There is a girl in The Netherlands that reminds a lot of people of Lara Fabian. She's only 15y old in the video I'll mention below (currently she's 16y). Her name is Emma Kok and she has got a similar ability to communicate through music as Lara has. Her emotions on stage are real, she really means what she sings. The video starts with an introduction to Emma that provides the necessary context to why she's able to convey lyrics in such a way, please don't miss it. Emma is amazing. She started taking singing lessons only 4-5 years ago so there's clearly a lot of talent involved here. I hope you'll watch it: 'Voilà': ruclips.net/video/KdIhq1tb8Co/видео.htmlsi=5zlB09l_Y19T0E3Z
Exactly one year later on the same stage she performed a song that was waiting for a voice like hers. The composer/writer wrote it 20y ago but never found the voice to match the song until he met Emma. And again it's a song that fits Emma story very well. She made it her own: 'Dancing On The Stars':

In french parfaitement means something like entirely
👉 Lara Fabian, *1970, is a world famous Belgian-Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, actress and producer. She is Belgian but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicily). She grew up in both countries and therefore speaks both French and Italian as her mother tongue. She was classically trained in singing, piano and song composition for 10 years (from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
To this day she has singing lessons and trains several times a week. She started her career in Canada in the early 1990s. She now lives in Montreal and also has Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in 4 languages (French, Italian, English, Spanish) and has sung in a total of 12 languages. She has sold over 20 million records worldwide as of September 2017 and is one of the best-selling Belgian artists of all time.
In 2000, Lara launched her triumphal procession in the US, but a falling out with Sony over her artistic direction and the will of Celine Dion's management to block her path to the US thwarted that plan.
She therefore focused on Europe again and had great success there, expanding her reach to Eastern Europe and Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her many years of collaboration with Igor Krutoy. She's also a star in Brazilia.
Many of their songs are now classics and are covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban...
The US is now rediscovering her through her covers of Lara Fabian songs.
She is Dimash's idol. He has covered some of her songs. She also wrote the lyrics to his song 'Your Love' and they finally met at Igor Krutoy's birthday party and sang Ti Amo Cosi (composed by Igor Krutoy) together with Aida Garafulina: 'Ti Amo Cosi / I Love You So' - ruclips.net/video/XaQFfqC3lnU/видео.html
Lara is one of the best singers in the world, for me the most soulful singer!

the song belongs to serge lama who was cheating on his wife with another woman and he was sick from his situation
Recommend Sohyang from South Korea sing Bridge Over Troubled Water on Immortal song 2.
Seems like an oxymoron. Two words in combination that shouldn´t be in one phrase. So that´s the struggle of the life she is singing about. Thanks for you thoughts.
Therapist as I'm a brain surgeon...
Nice one. Thanks for the input.
_'malade'_ = malady essentially, the same word in English
Please react to Dimash Qudaibergen.❤
To me, She is the Greatest. More than Streisand. More than Celine. Celine's husband convinced Sony not to promote her, because he wanted Celine to excell.
ARCANEEE PLSS
Maybe “perfectly sick” means the singer (genetically, because she is not the writer or original singer) doesn’t really want to get better or extract themselves from this toxic relationship.
My phone autocorrected generically*
Quel dommage de ne pas écouter cette chanson en entière et de s'interrompre à chaque instant, cela perd tout le charme de la chanson il faudrait tellement plus intéressant de l'écouter une fois en entier et de revenir dessus pour pouvoir commenter la chanson en détail
Merci de lire le commentaire épinglé
Dude. You're pausing too much. We want to enjoy the brilliant show as well.
Otherwise good analysis.
Anything I don’t stop and comment on I have to cut out due to fair use laws here. That would make for a very choppy experience for you and I would have to cut out half the track. Is that what you would prefer? You’re in luck though, there is actually a RUclips version which is just the show and doesn’t have my face in it at all, and it’s completely interrupted!
@@Connection_through_Reaction I think the point is there are hundreds of versions of this song that we are very aware of and while we completely understand the rules and regulations of RUclips, there are many ways to go through the songs and still be compliant, minimizing the number of pauses. There are reactors that do not get altered stopped cut out by RUclips that go completely through a song and then comment after the song is over. I personally prefer something in between maybe two or three pauses with analysis afterwards. Others may have their preference. I just think that’s a good balance, by the way, your analysis was fantastic.
Those reactors are placing themselves at risk of court action. I’m not going to risk that. Just because they are doing it doesnt make it right. Edit I’ve actually in the last few minutes received an email from the copyright holder saying they don’t believe this is fair use as I haven’t stopped enough, so the video might have to come down anyway. The copyright holder wants me to stop it MORE or cut the video where I’m not speaking.
I liked your reaction, but I don't quite see the "therapist" aspect there, sorry. I would expect more complemental analysis. Maybe you would need to pause after listening the first time, think and add up more analytical speech.
Edit : ok please ignore, you clearly mentioned this in your YT profile that you're not the therapist when reacting... then it's not really "therapist reacts" ;)
Because it’s a reaction and not an analysis. I’m a therapist and I give a first time reaction. That’s it. Plain and simple.
@@Connection_through_Reaction When I see "vocal coach reacts" I get loads of technical info from them most of the time. I think you should rename title by "Stu reacts" for intellectual honesty. Plain and simple.
Thanks for your feedback. Edit. Interestingly a lot of comments say there is too much of a therapist angle in this video. Shows how you can’t please everyone!
Wow dude, please turn the therapist/psychoanalysis psychobabble off and just enjoy the performance!! The pausing to breakdown the psychological implications of the lyrics etcetera detracts completely from Lara's performance and flow of the song. Also very self-serving and arrogant.
It’s almost as if there’s this thing called copyright and fair use that we have to abide by. Luckily for you there’s actually a video on RUclips that is just the performance and hasn’t got my face all over it so you can always check that out if you just want to see the performance.
@TherapistReactsOfficial You obviously don't grasp the concept of a "REACTION" video! People generally watch "REACTION" videos to garner how a singer/song effects the viewer on an emotional or other level. If I wanted to watch JUST Lara's performance I wouldn't be searching for "REACTION" videos! What you gave the viewers was not your "reaction" it was an unemotional, clinical and self-serving analysis that was completely inappropriate to this format.
Afraid fair use doesn’t work that way. Thanks for giving it a try. Have a good day. Edit : I’ve actually in the last few minutes received an email from the copyright holder saying they don’t believe this is fair use as I haven’t stopped enough, so the video might have to come down anyway. The copyright holder wants me to stop it MORE or cut the video where I’m not speaking.
@@Connection_through_Reaction Again, you've completely missed the point! I understand how "fair use works"! I'm not as concerned about the number of pauses, but what you discuss during those pauses. A "reaction" video carries with it the implication that you would talk about how the song/artist is making you feel emotionally, or the quality of the voice and/or performance. The lyrics play a big role if the song is an original. To bring a psychoanalytic perspective into that is gross, crass and just plain weird!
No psychoanalysis here my friend. I’ve talked about the story she was telling and what it was bring up for me in the moment of me watching it.
You pause too often
See pinned comment. According the copyright holder it’s not enough.
