Алекс, привет из Солнечной Сибири из Омска!!! Странно, но я пропустил эту твою реакцию!!! Но как у нас говорят, лучше поздно, чем никогда!!! 😊 Ну ты уже поняла, что Диана каждый кавер делает своей песней!!! Согласись, что у Дианы это звучит намного красивее и лучше, чем у Криса Айзека?!!! Спасибо за реакцию на нашу Богиню Вокала Диану Анкудинову!!! 👍✌️🤘👸 А на Human ты делала реакцию?
Алекс, привет из Солнечной Сибири из Омска!!! Это видео вышло 1 октября 2023 года, концерт Дианы в Омске был на следующий день 2 октября и там Диана сказала: Кто ещё не видел саундтрек к фильму Дух Байкала, обязательно посмотрите, у меня впервые мурашки от моей песни!!! 😅 Так и сказала!!! Диана здесь полностью оправдала своё прозвище ШАМАНКА, её голос и образ соответствует всему происходящему на видео!!! Спасибо за реакцию на нашу Богиню Вокала и русалку Диану Анкудинову!!! 👍✌️🤘👸🧜
Questa è sicuramente per te una nuova Lara😊. In questa sua performance che è alla storia come una delle più belle performance Francofone in duetto con il grande Jhonny Hallyday , Lara mette in mostra tutta la sua potenza Vocale, la passione, la grinta e la sua capacità interpretativa. Da sottolineare un paio di aspetti di questa immensa cantante, dotata di una tecnica sopraffina. Il suo belting potente e cristallino, sempre sostenuto da un costante flusso di aria che le permette di mantenere una permanente consistenza vocale e un bellissimo vibrato. Il controllo che ha della sua respirazione è pazzesco, infatti lei ha anche frequentato un corso specifico sulla corretta respirazione ( il suo training classico qui si vede tutto) Seconda cosa la sua immensa capacità di cambiare registro vocale in maniera quasi impercettibile, che le permette di trovare sempre la risonanza e il "colore" che desidera, aiutata da un perfetto posizionamento della bocca e del palato ( 02.10- 02.12.. 03.18.) passando indistintamente da un registro alto ad un registro basso , dalla voce di petto alla voce di testa o mixandole, e Lara è molto conosciuta e imitata per questo.. Di solito lei usa molto una mix voice (voce di petto/voce di testa) molto "areata" che le permette di dare "calore" e perfetta e cristallina dizione delle vocali e consonanti, anche sostenendo delle note molto acute per diversi secondi.. Qui lo fa di meno, usa molto di più una voce di petto piena. E poi quasi alla fine della canzone fa una cosa tecnicamente molto apprezzabile, (06.18) quando in piena voce di petto, all'improvviso si piega sulle gambe, costringe i muscoli addominali e passa in piena voce di testa in un nano secondo! Per niente facile da fare😊, ma lei lo fa sembrare così naturale 😊. .e se pensiamo che siamo alla fine della canzone, che è sicuramente impegnativa a livello di energia spesa , lei ancora è pienamente lucida e cosciente di quello che sta facendo.. Masterclass di bellezza e tecnica, difficile trovare una artista così, un libro aperto di tecnica di canto. ❤
I'm reading some comments that disagree about the similarity between Aurora and Björk. I'm going to try to explain myself...the obvious thing is the two Nordics, also in that they are original in certain types of "dissonances" and in the way they dress. Their tonalities of voice are different, but I find, as in the case of Diana Ankudinova "Rechenka" (Where we agreed), that there is something ancestral, primordial and magical in both artists, of course it is just an opinion... I would say a feeling.
Totally ok to disagree. Otherwise, there'd be no point in talking at all. We could all just nod and point to food and that'd be that. 😉 To me, Aurora and Björk are somewhat similar or rather reminiscent of each other, but I can't quite define exactly how. Then again, it might be exactly what you're saying that's making us see them as similar.
Thank you so much Anna! Ren always makes me question everything, with each song, he brings a very interesting perspective and I love that he makes me think every single time. Aside from musical talent, which cannot be denied, he seems highly intelligent, extremely good at storytelling and truly genuine. That is a rare thing these days, although since I've started this channel I'm noticing more and more that it's not as rare as I used to think.😉
Thank you so much! I may be overstepping, but are you perhaps from Indonesia? It would be so cool if someone from that part of the planet is sharing smiles with me while listening to Lara. 😊 If you'd rather not, you don't have to answer, of course.
🇨🇦 A couple more to add to your list ! "Growing wings" and "Choose what you love most, and let it kill you" And another, her first really big hit, 58 weeks in the charts, "I will love again" ! 🇨🇦
Ok... so I've watched several of your videos to various artists but I can honestly say that watching you react to Lara is rapidly becoming a favorite pastime of mine. After watching your expressions to this video all I can say is Tango! I would love to see your reaction to it!! As always thank you, I enjoyed your entertaining comments of this powerful and different Lara performance.
Thank you so much for such a lovely compliment! ❤ You know, it tells me something else though. It seems that each artist has a very different impact on me. That has not occurred to me. I thought, there was just "I like this" or "I don't like this", but it seems my attention is on different aspects depending on who/what I'm listening to. Fun thought, that. 🤔 Thanks for noticing something I totally missed about myself. I guess it's easier for someone else to notice it. Thank you again, so much!
🇨🇦 Finally 😋 LOL Just kidding, but I am happy that you enjoyed it ! And now, because you need a change of pace, I suggest one already on your list ! "I am A-WA", but grab the comments after for it's meaning ! 🇨🇦
Believe me, it feels like "finally" to me, too. 😂 We'll both feel the same when I get to I Am A-WA.😉 As always, I'll go in blind and wait for Eric when the reaction is published. ❤ I am glad you enjoyed it with me as well! This was fun indeed in so many ways. Watching it afterwards, I am seeing some "transfer of cringe" moments, but thankfully it's been explained to me as Lara being nervous. One thing that needed no explanation was Johnny's jacket. I grew up in the 80's and hate that fashion with a passion to this day (my mom chose my clothes back then, ouch). However, the full immersion of both of them into this song made it a masterpiece of a performance. They exceeded all expectations!
Dear Anne, such a lovely comment! I have to repeat how lucky I am to have you along with so many wonderful people visiting this channel. I am not only finding new music, some of you are becoming my friends. I keep up with the comments because of that human connection we all seem to share, especially when prompted by great music. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart! ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts hello lovely Aleks I appreciate you are doing your best to reply to everyone though I think that will soon become an impossible task. I would love if you could react to an artist named Sissel singing Slow Down with the Tabernacle choir
Two great voices for an excellent performance, one of the best duets in music and a great production the likes of which unfortunately are no longer seen today. Thank you👍
Thank you for taking the time to take a look. Thankfully, there are some great singers today as well, granted not too many. Still, we all remain attached to those that evoked emotions when we were younger. This is why I am actually glad to discover so many artists who are new to me, whether they are new or not.
@@AleksReacts I'm not nostalgic for old artists even if I don't see much new around in terms of words, arrangements, interpretation or great productions. Times change and we adapt to the needs of the recording market but, although I am not a great fan of pop music (with a few exceptions), if you also remove the emotions from a song or a performance, what remains? 😴
I am in fact nostalgic, and I can get obsessed with a single song and listen to it over and over again. New songs rarely do that for me, mainly because of the same reasons you mentioned. So, I am actually very glad that I'm not being asked to react to "cookie cutter" music that's prevalent today. I was merely trying to say that some new artists have surprised me in a very positive way, or rather they were able to bring emotions back into the music, which I agree with you is rather lacking these days in what's probably the most popular music.
Dear Aleks, I knew you would like it. It put a smile on your face. Johnny was a gentleman, he put his miicrophone on 70% to let Lara, who weas becoming famous at that time, shine. And she did shine. It was a rockopera, but with a lot of intimate moments. Lara told later that the fysical aspect made her less nervous, by holding on to Johnny, she was calm to perform for the 80.000 in the poutring rain. Again, glad you reacted to this. I listen to this song a lot. But now and again I watch it, one of the great duets Lara did. The other one is with Maurane: Tu es mon autre. It is a real contrast with this one. So please, put it on your list. Have a good weekend. And thank you again.
Dear Gerda, I sure did. Thanks again for recommending it and for watching i.e. not forgetting about it! ❤ I am also glad for the explanation on the calming effect of holding on to Johnny. 😉
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v8IF3mWJ3_k.html&ab_channel=MUSICEVOLUTION another beautiful song that reserves to be known. "Pas sans toi" concert NUE
Maybe the vibe, but I personally don't hear Marley in his voice. 😊 On the other hand, I do get what you see when you say he's similar to Aurora in a way.
great comments.After the world of Lara ,come into the world of J Halliday..more duet :Lara and Maurane (tu es mon autre ) ,Lara and Laura Pausini (la solitudine),etc...
Thank you! I am glad you liked the reaction, I liked the performance very much. 😊 I've written down the suggestions (and after this duet you're not the only one suggesting these) and I will get to them at some point. Still listening song by song and there are quite a few more solos to hear, so I'll mix that all up a bit. Hope you enjoy the solos as well.
Hello, merci de continuer à réagir à lara. Tu viens de faire ta première réaction à un duo de lara et tu as pu voir que lara est toujours là même, elle donne tout en duo comme en solo. Quand on sais que Johnny Hallyday était l'artiste le plu populaire en France et en plus au stade de France devant 80000 personne,lara à fais une prestation incroyable . Je te conseille le duo avec laura pausini plu grande chanteuse italien,duo sur la place de Rome, la chasnon la sollicitude . Duo avec josh groban for alway's et duo avec Michael Bolton las vegas 2010 chanson the prayer.
Merci de continuer ce voyage avec moi! I agree that this performance was incredible. I've written down the others you've suggested and since I plan to continue with Lara, I'm sure I'll get to them as well at some point. The list is growing. 😊
Epic! The orchestra with all the string instruments in unison and the wonderful choirs, make you foreshadow everything that is going to happen. Requiem for a madman; I don't know if a madman because of dementia or because of passionate love... in any case in a ceremony of honor for death. The duo performs this song in a masterful way; the body language of the two making the perfect counterpoint, Lara's incredible rock voice, even more dramatic than what she is used to, I liked the way they caress and hug each other... one in particularly when she holds them in her arms like a "Piedad". All of this soaked by a rain that adds another point of drama. Johnny Hollyday is a legend in France. He seemed like the perfect couple to stage this piece; as you pointed out very well, it looks like a Rock opera. Thank you very much for contributing your point of view. Excellent reaction!
Thank you! Glad to do it - so many people were right to keep pushing me to watch this. 😊 I think he is mad with love, which is quite well played out here. Better yet, they both seem mad with love in life and in death.
Lara's power is amazing, she has only come to my attention in the past few years, Johnny Hallyday I know of for many years, same age as me, rather middle of the road rock by Anglo American standards, but this duet was impressive and it helped cement his wild reputation.
This is my first look at Johnny, and I was only introduced to Lara a few months ago. Both are powerhouses in their own right and this performance deserves legendary status.
This is a legendary performance. Lara was in the beginning of her Career and Jonny help her and promoted her . I think there was almost 90 000 in the audience. Great reaction. Thank you. I hope Eric comes with moore information. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.
Ok I will try to give the full context: • Johnny : The most admired singer in France from early 60s to 2017 when he died. He is the Elvis of France, sold more than 110M records WW. His concerts were huge! To give you an idea on how big he was in the french music history, just 3 anecdotes: 1. As a teenager, he was mentored by Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour themselves ! 2. He was the first one who gave his chance to a young guitarist and his band, as a supporting act to his concerts during his 1966 tour. Name of the band: the Jimi Hendrix Experience! 3. When he died in 2017, there were national funerals, with hundred of bikers on the Champs-Elysees, 1 million people long the path of the funeral procession. And this song was played when the coffin penetrated in the church. Johnny was a real vocal powerhouse, but for this concert , in this last night, best perf, the mics were balanced in favor of Lara: he wanted her to shine and found this gave more drama to the duet. • The song: this is an anthem song for him, that he used to sing alone. This was turned into a duet for Lara. The story of the song was created in reference to a very famous old french classic movie: Le Jour se Leve (1939) where the main character is barricaded and surrounded by the police, having killed a bad man who was his rival in love affairs. Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where the main character and her girlfriend are defying the police. • The venue/event: Johnny’s concerts in Stade de France ( biggest stadium in Paris and France) in front of min 80,000. Lara was one of the surprise special guest. They were supposed to perform it 3 times in a row on September 1998 (4th, 5th and 6th). The first night on the 4th, it was deluge of rain, the scene was outdoor, it was risky and they decided at the last minute, with the crowd in the stadium, to postpone it to Sep 11th . Johnny was devastated. The second night and the third night the weather was fine enough. There were 200+ musicians and 150+ chorists on stage. The orchestra and choir setup was amazing, the choir especially which was distributed on huge stairs climbing to the sky. But the night of 11th, the rain was here again. Johnny absolutely refused to cancel this time. This is this Sep 11th show that you just watched and the rein just added some dramatic effect to the whole performance. The orchestra was located under a tent. The choir was grouped on the floor and on some balconies (not on stairs anymore obviously) • Lara: she was at the beginning of her career in France and this performance became legendary and accelerated her fame there. She was just starting to be known in France when, in February 1998, she performed this song in duet with Johnny for Les Enfoires, the most attended France TV Show of each year. Johnny was so surprised and amazed by Lara performance that he decided to do this song again as a duet with her for the 3 big concerts a few months later. In between February and September, the album Pure from Lara had become an absolute mega hit in France, and Lara was already a star. But this live performance where she performs as a surprise guest definitely extended her fame and she got new fans across the entire country. This duet has become legendary and iconic in France, there is still at least one TV show every month coming back on this duet and exposing the behind-the-scenes moments.
Thank you so much, Eric for saving the context for this moment! The biggest surprise for me are Johnny's mentors as a teenager. What a start! Also, him giving a shot to Hendrix, and later on Lara in her beginnings in France. All of this is very interesting information. Thank you again! 💕
@@AleksReacts another sponsor for him was Line Renaud, a famous singer in France. She was the lead performer in some Las Vegas Casinos in the 50s/60s. It has long been well-known that Charles Aznavour wrote one of Johnny’s early successes (retiens la nuit) and that Johnny’s agent was Charles’ brother-in-law, but we only discovered recently, after Charles’ death, that Johnny has lived during 2 years in Charles’ property. Charles didn’t want this to be known as he wanted to escape malicious rumors that it may have triggered.
You really are a treasure! I have to ask (and you don't have to answer), are you a journalist by any chance? You know so much and it's amazing to me that you dig up very behind the scenes information that isn't that easy to find.
@@AleksReacts no, I’m not. I am engineer in computing science, lol. But when I am passionate about something, I dig down to find all the data, cross-checking it, and then I am good in producing some summary for others. So maybe I should have become journalist 😄
Not really that far off - analytical, persistent, resourceful. When you think about it, a profession for similar types of people even though at first glance it's not. Honestly, I think you should write a book. At least half of the Internet would buy it and read it. 😊
Hey Aleks, you're finally back with Lara, great. I feel like you, my focus is on Lara, but maybe that's also because i've never been particularly interested in Johnny but this duet is really legendary and yes, very intense😂❤
Even though I loved the performance and I grew up in the 80's I can't get over that jacket and the sewed on lightning. So I know what you mean when you 😂. There will always be more Lara, but I'd get bored listening only to one artist. ❤
@@AleksReacts Of course, no problem. As a contrast, you could perhaps look at this duet Lara Fabian & Michael Bolton - The Prayer (Live at the Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, 2010) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M__6PFD1YEw.htmlsi=ag5hajr7LRhsgx3-
I'm honestly starting to hate on this software. I hit like and then I totally lost your comment. Been looking for it for 15 minutes now. Thank goodness I managed to dig it up and jot it down. A few are mentioning that, funny that I HAVE heard of Michael Bolton or is it normal because again MTV. 😂 Then again, if I had been very much into his music (which I wasn't), I would have stumbled on Lara a long time ago.
@@AleksReacts Yes, strange that some comments disappear. About Michael, i'm not necessarily a fan of him but he has a great voice and i like some of his songs. In duets however, he always looks a little woody😂
Ciao, il povero JOHNNY alla fine di questa straordinaria performance gli saranno fischiate le orecchie per almeno due giorni con LARA che sparava tutta la potenza della sua voce a pochi centimetri dalle sue orecchie, scherzi a parte fenomenale performance di questi due artisti. Ciao tanti saluti.
Excellent reaction, Aleks, but are you okay, hun? Bc, I don’t know, you seemed a bit overwhelmed and this iconic performance usually causes some serious side effects on people. Actually, rumour has it that it led to 3 major consequences: 1- Lara conquered France for once and for all. 2- Johnny’s left ear had never fully recovered from such impact. 3- Johnny’s wife had never let him go up on stage with Lara again. Well, I’m quite sure the first one is absolutely true. I guess the second is totes possible. And I think the third one to be rather justifiable, I mean, based on what we have just seen, who on earth could possibly blame the poor woman? 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you! Glad you liked this one. 😂😂😂 I am totally ok, I actually just went ahead and immersed myself into this one and boy, was that rewarding. All the consequences make absolute sense, especially No. 3 🤣 I know I'd have a rolling pin ready if I saw my husband like that with another woman. 😉
Hi. Thank you for reacting to this amasing duo❤❤❤ Jonny unfortumalely died in 2017 or 2018... he was like alvis presly of france. They did this duo 2 or 3 times infront of 80,000 people In the rain She sang it alone for his honor ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LAWFwjiqheE.htmlsi=fC2ki1qwrxAJOCQI
Thank you for watching! I still cannot recover from the fact that I literally never heard of the man. I had to Google him to figure out why he's so important, and it was ridiculous how much I've missed. Then again, I'm not that old and back then the Internet was not exactly how you found out about music - it was MTV and radio. Johnny Halliday was not featured on MTV or on the local radio.
Thank you @kailara3342, @concepcionenjutogomez764, @ericsicard910, @Royal_BLT, @esterzach, @GerdaTw and finally @AdamReith for suggesting this one. Please forgive me if I missed anyone, I've been trying to keep up with all the suggestions, but nobody's perfect. Hope you enjoy this one! 😊
Hi Aleks. Excellent reaction and opinions to this phenomenal talent. I don't know whether your a singer or musician but when you consider how young Lucy is and a voice that sounds years ahead of what it should do. What will she sound like in fifteen years when it 's said that the female voice reaches full potential around the age of thirty five!!. A force to be reckoned with. I hope I'm around to witness Lucy's world wide mainstream recognition.
Hello Pedro. 😊 Oh, I'm a total laymen when it comes to music, I just love listening to it, but not a singer nor a musician. Very much agree with you that there is a lot of potential in this young lady - she's already very good. ❤
@@AleksReacts Of course. I have subscribed to your channel, though I didn't tell you that. You did a very good reaction. And Aurora is my 2nd favorite artist, after Angelina Jordan. And both of them are Norwegian, just like me. But THAT is actually not the reason why I love them. I see how it can be easy to attach the "BIASED" tag on a fellow countryman, but in my case that would not be correct. Did it increase the odds for me to get to know them ? Definitely. But those two artists are in a league on their own, but in very different ways. Combined they basically give me everything I would ever want or need from music. I have been following Angelina from she was 7 (she is 18 today) and Aurora since she was 15 (she is 28 today). Angelina auditioned for Norway's Got Talent at the age of 7 and won the competition just after she had turned 8. She also performed on America's Got Talent at age 13 and was immediately awarded the Golden Buzzer after her 1st performance ("Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen). Both Aurora and Angelina are EXCEPTIONAL artists, that's for sure. IF at some time you want to check out Angelina Jordan (and you may of course very well be aware of her already), then maybe consider reacting to her cover of Adele's "Easy On Me" when she was 15 years old. Angelina signed with Republic Records in Los Angeles when she was 14, and this black and white studio recording was among the first things she and Republic Records did together. Angelina started off with jazz around the age of 3, by which time she had already been singing for 1,5 years ( she started at age 18 months), but she can sing any genre she wants and have done at least 8 different genres so far, and many reactors say that she sounds better than the original most of the times. I definitely agree with that. Anyway, her performance of Easy On Me is a great way to get to know her in my opinion, as it is mainstream enough and showcases quite a few of her qualities as a singer. I know that this turned out to be quite the Angelina advertisement, but I really hope that you will take the time to feature her on your channel. She may very well be the best musical find you will ever have. And she has a HUGE and loyal fan base. You will be educated about her in no time, trust me on that. She is SO much more than what meets the eye and ears. A beautiful, humble, loving human being, just like Aurora. And one of the best singers you will ever hear. I will try to leave a link to the performance in a reply to this post, so check your "held for review" section on your channel if you don't see it. But the video is really easy to find anyway 🙂 I wish you all the best, and good luck with your channel. I am impressed by your reaction to Aurora, so I think you will grow quickly 🙂 Take care and stay safe! Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥ But before I go though, make double sure to also react to Aurora's "Through The Eyes Of A Child" at the Nidarosdomen cathedral here in Norway. Everything about it is extremely beautiful. That entire concert is 🙂
Thank you so much for such a heartening and lovely comment! Thank you also for subscribing, I do hope you'll find enjoyable content and that we'll listen to some artists together. ❤ It turns out I actually already recorded and prepared my first reaction to Angelina and her song Bad Valentine. I'm sticking to a schedule, so I don't get overwhelmed, but it will be up in the next few days - hope you'll like it, I sure liked her. ❤ Personally, I'm a fan of bias when it comes to singers from one's own country. I mean, each one brings some of their own culture into their music, so some bias is understandable, logical and even welcome. Especially when the singers are as good as Aurora and Angelina. I know I only heard 1 song by each of them, but that is often enough to know you've found someone special. 😊 I also try not to learn too much about anything personal on the artists. I prefer to let their work speak for itself. Their lives are their own, their music is for all to enjoy. Btw, the link was not in the "held for review" section and even though I often check it now, it's usually empty.
@@AleksReacts Ah... Nice ! Thanks for your reply 🙂 Also on MY side my comment containing the link seemed to be gone. However, when I sorted the comments by "newest" I could see it. Kinda weird 🙂 Anyway, I'm looking forward to following you on your artist discoveries😊
Appreciate your reaction to Lucy. Hope you cover more of her songs as I believe Lucy to be the best vocalist in the world today, and is a humble, sincere lady with a warm, accepting personality and has worked hard to perfect her voice over many years. Lucky us!
Your comment is appreciated as well. Thank you! I will certainly listen to more of Lucy's songs, I've only just begun. 🙂 She seems like a sweet and well mannered young lady aside from having been blessed with a really pleasant voice. 💕
Great reaction as always Aleks, you are naturally expressive in your physical and considered reactions to how a performance moves you. Thank you. Aurora has an ethereal, fragile and innocent air about her which I found added a real poignancy to this particular song. Haunting.
Thank you! .. you really is going in to the lyrics ❤. Please 🙏 listen to more Aurora, her lyrics are extremely interesting- and her music is penetrating the heart. She said in an interview that she knew from the beginning that she had 8 messages to the world… she have released four albums.. Would love to hear your views on more of her songs. Best reflection I have heard ❤️. Best from Bergen ( Auroras hometown 😉) Norway
Takk, Heidi fra Norge! ❤ Great to hear such a positive comment from Aurora's home town! 😊 I do plan to listen to more of her music and I hope you'll like my future reactions as well.
She feels her music from the very bottom to the highest heaven... An artist that can connect emotionally and physically with their passion has my support :-) Yes her performances are not perfection at times, but that's the truth and natural :-)
I like imperfect things, they show our humanity, as no human is perfect. Personally, I believe it is our imperfections that make each one of us unique in a way. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment - I hope you liked the reaction. 😊
