ADAGIO | Lara Fabian REACTION | Best Version I Have Heard!! 

Yes this is a version, the italian one, and the vocal arrengement was written by Remo Giazotto based on the Albinoni's neo barroque piece. But there are many other versions of Adagio performed by different artists in different languages. The history of Adagio. Albinoni's Adagio or Adagio in G minor, whose original title is Adagio in Sol minore per archi e organo su due spunti tematici e su un basso numerato di Tomaso Albinoni (E 26), is a neo-baroque piece for strings and organ in G minor . His work was originally attributed to the 18th-century Venetian composer Tomaso Albinoni, but was actually composed in 1945 by the Italian musicologist Remo Giazotto. The second version was written in 1984 by the spanish singer Dyango who recorded his hit “Adiós a la tristeza” from the album Al fin solos with the music of Albinoni's Adagio. Another version was also written In 1984,by the Swedish guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen released a version under the name "Icarus' Dream Suite Op.4" on his debut album Rising Force. In 1985, Camilo Sesto, used the musical basis of Albinoni's Adagio to add lyrics of his own, which he dedicated to his father Eliseo Blanes, who died in 1982. The resulting song was titled "While my soul feels", credited to Camilo Blanes/ Tomaso Albinoni and was published on his album Tuyo in 1985. In 1985, singer Annie Haslam of the progressive rock group Renaissance, in her second solo production, performed a version called "Save us All", on the album Still Life with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Louis Clark. In 1995, Ricardo Montaner performed it in a version called “Adaggio al amor” included on the album “Viene del alma”. In 1998, the soprano and classical crossover singer Sarah Brightman released a song called Adagio, "Anytime, Anywhere" based on this piece on her album Eden. In 2001, Chilean singer Myriam Hernández recorded Camilo Sesto's version for her live album Love in Concert. In 2001 the Spanish singer Rosa López covered the song in the program Operación Triunfo 2001 under the name "Ausencia". In 2003 she included it in her second album Ahora. In 2008 Adagio»Simple from Il Divo from the album The Promise. In 2023 the choral group Libera used it, using the lyrics of the Ave verum corpus,[3]​ for one of its most successful video clips. Then comes the Lara Fabian's version and the cover of hers by Dimash. Albinoni's Adagio Iis also performed by many orquestras around the world. All versions has the same Albinoni's melodic base, and every each of them are beautiful and very unique on their own.

Agree 100% with you Susan

She's the complete package. I know a lot of artists are described that way, but if you read about her life and you watch her through the years, she's more than a great artist. Lara is a wonderful human being. It's such a crime that the industry put so many obstacles in her way when she tried to have her break in the US. What a woman.

@@wootwootyouknow Lara for me is so much more than an artist... She literally has completed my life in so many ways.

Your ears, your hearing, your preference. It's good to know 😊

Absolutely right! For me, there's no comparison.

Totally agree. Laras voice is warm and full of emotions for me, while Dimash is imho just showing off what all he can do but on cost of real emotion and also its often too shrill.

Dimash is overrated anyway.

​@@mysticguava at least someone said, I dont like him

Eric, thank you so much for all the information (and love) you provide about Lara. I always check to make sure you have commented before adding any info. There is truly no one like her.

@@elizabethhurley1129 thanks, she is indeed unique and I love awakening people on her artistry and influence.

Thank you Eric for taking the time to explain us about this beatiful song.

😂

You know she’s part Canadian too?

@@ccinn6452 Lara Fabián was born on January 9, 1970 in the commune of Etterbeek (Brussels), her father was Belgian and her mother Sicilian. The only thing that is Canadian about her is her nationality, because she has lived several years in that country, but she was born in Belgium and therefore she is European

@@mariamarques8480 She has a Canadian citizenship and have been living here on and off since she is a teenager . She became popular here and then in Europe . It kinda rubs me the wrong way cause I know her and been singing her song since I was a kid . She has been successful here a lot why doesn’t that matter ? She’s been a coach on the Québec version of the voice… American down south didn’t know her because at the time Céline was trying to make her breakthrough in the US and they considered them too similiar 🙄There was some competition between the two (Lara has always denied it and said she loves Céline and has wrote to her but to no avail) The rest is history

@@ccinn6452 wipipedia information In 1990, after finishing her studies, Lara arrived in the province of Quebec (Canada) to promote her song "Je sais" and she fell in love with her place. She moved to Montreal and founded her own record company, Clandestina Productions. Her collaborator and producer, Rick Allison (whom she met in a bar in Brussels), joined her in Montreal and they worked hard writing and recording songs. (She arrived in Canada when she was 20 years old, so she would already be a very adult teenager) Furthermore, at the age of eighteen she performed "Croire" defending Luxembourg in the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest, where she came in fourth place, with Céline Dion being the winner that year. She has dual Belgian and Canadian nationality, but she was born in Europe, and therefore, she is European, of European parents as well

Lara is a song

Lara had years before Dimash appeared to show and establish herself on the world stage. Dimash is just getting started and his courage to take risks amazes as much as his incredible vocal abilities.

Simply said, Dimash is the top male vocalist and Lara is the Top Female

there are covers but imo better than the orog. version - and all that songs has own story

'.. _untouchable_ .' '..may have _hit a home run_ ..'

Love of Tired Swans and Know are Krutoy's songs sung by Lara. Krutoy and Dimash made changes and rearranged them to suit Dimash and later entered their joint album. Same as it is with Love is like a Dream, previously sung by Alla Pugachova and bunch of other singers.

@@irenevassileva5586 Love of Tired Swans: initially a french song titled "Je t’aime encore", music composed by Igor indeed and french lyrics written by Lara. Released in 2010 in Mademoiselle Zhivago album. Then a russian version was created for Lara in 2014, with another story, titled "Love of Tired Swans ». When Dimash covered it in 2018, very few words changed, just a few to reflect the fact it was a male who was singing it. Know: the music is from Igor and it was initially a pure vocalization by Lara, only one sentence in the song. The song was initially titled Vocalize but her fans instead referred it as "Ascolta La Voce" which is the sentence used in the song. When Dimash covered it, the lyrics were created for him and you can consider it a new song indeed.

@@ericsicard910 Well, they are not Lara's songs per ce, they are Igor's. Lara is not the owner of the rights. Dimash's versions are not covers. They are his songs and Igor's, and as such they are in Igor and Dimash's joined album of 2021. I know that you know of Lara, but when you decide to compare her with someone else, try to find all the facts about that other singer too, otherwise what exactly do you compare or why mention the name of the other singer at all. Dimash enjoyed not only Lara as a singer when he was a kid, but many other singers as well. They might have been his stepping stones, but he never tried to emulate them. Never tried to imitate them. Remember, Dimash is a highly educated musician, he reads scores. Even for the competitions he worked out his own interpretations of the songs, let alone for his albums. Just enjoy Lara, you don't need Dimash to show how great she is.

@@irenevassileva5586 credits on the song Je t’aime encore is for both Igor and Lara. In the music world, Ithe word "cover" is not attached to credits and rights, it is related to who has performed the song on first place, the original singer/performer. So Yes Dimash covers Love of Tired Swans by Lara. For Know, you are right, this is not really a cover, we can consider it a brand new song by Dimash. A cover is not a word that is indicative of a decreased quality, some covers are better than the original. I love Dimash, I just wanted to give info on the song origins and didn’t want to bother Dears.

Dimash sang two of Lara's songs. Adagio, because it gave him the change to showcase his vocal abilities during a competition, a brilliant decision by the way, he killed it and won the round. The second is a song composed for her by Krutoy. Lara graciously offered her song rights to Dimash to perform his male version of the song as a gesture of admiration and respect of his talent. Yes, Dimash respects and admires Lara as a singer, but to speak of big influence on his singing and performance is completely unfounded.

@@irenevassileva5586 Thank you. Dimash certainly respects Lara but his inspirations (as he himself said) are his parents first and foremost, then Michael Jackson, Freddy Mercury, Celine and Pavarrotti

I’ve read her native languages are French and Italian while fluent in English and Spanish and sings in other languages as well. She is just stunning

Some say she s a goddess, other say she s an angel, I think she s a mermaid

​@@legitor513 Well said, n , could agree!! 🪶👌🦊🧙‍♂️🐺👍🪶

Sigo mi comentario...Soy una de las "dears" de Dimash y gracias a la admiración que él le tiene llegué a conocer a Lara. En mi opinión: la mejor cantante e intérprete femenina es Lara Fabián y el mejor cantante masculino es Dimash. Muy lejos de ellos viene el resto. Sugiero que reacciones a "Je suis malade", "Caruso", "Mademoiselle Hyde", "Ti amo cosí" (esta última interpretada por Lara junto a Dimash y Aída Garifulina, una verdadera joya musical). Saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾

Frstly, Dimash is in a competition. Secondly, Lara had years before Dimash to showcase her abilities and establish herself on the world stage.

Yeah, thats the conclusion I came to at the end of the video I feel there is a different beauty in both performances!!

I would rather say that Dimash is the male and younger version of her, as she was one of his main inspiration and the way he performs has been influenced by her a lot😅

@@ericsicard910 agree

Both have so much beauty it’s amazing to witness such raw talent!!!

​@@ericsicard910without a doubt - especially since without Lara, there would likely be no Dimash (at least not as he is).

Me: the Club Soda show i think was in part to prepare her foray in the US market i think it was one of her first album with most songs in English ChatGPT Yes, you're correct. The Club Soda show in Montreal in 1999 was part of Lara Fabian's efforts to prepare for her entry into the U.S. market. During this period, she was promoting her first English-language album, which featured many songs in English, including "Adagio." This performance at Club Soda was significant as it marked her transition from primarily French-language music to a more international, English-speaking audience. The show helped her to test and refine her English repertoire before embarking on her U.S. promotional activities and concerts.
