Check out my other Dimash reactions in my Dimash playlist! ru-vid.com/group/PL-tAjLxAAkA8ENlOk6-WAYZd-dqKxYmdT

You are a beautiful soul which shows in your eyes. You are the person Dimash sings for, those who are brought to tears with the pure elegance of his voice. He is The Voicebender, he weaves music and gives it life, enthralling the listener and captivating the heart. Your reactions to Dimash are sublime and bring me to tears watching how he affects you. Thank you, I await with anticipation every reaction to Dimash you will do. UKDear 💜

Do you still doubt that he is the eighth wonder of the world?

I find your analysis, musicianship, and expertise as captivating as Dimash and the other superb atrists you react to. Thank you!

Besides the splendor of Dimash, can I just say I really APPRECIATE your expertise, dilligence, musicianship and work you put in your reaction video's!!! ❤ from the Netherlands

When I saw this video popping up on my screen, I felt a rush of happiness crossing my body and I’m very glad to be the first to give ‘like” in this reaction/analysis😄Even before watching it I already knew it was going to be a super-special treat and I wasn’t wrong about it at all: your emotions and words in this amazing review were full of beautiful meaning and I felt totally related to them😊I loved that you also loved this cover that I consider one of Dimash's most beautiful performances... If I was Japanese, I would feel very proud of having his respectful and flawless interpretation of such a relevant song in Japan. Thank you very much, Sir, for helping me understand a little better why this song touches me so much❣

This is one of my favourites. When I first heard this song I listened to it over and over again. I'm so glad you enjoyed Ikanaide. Thank you very much for your reaction. Please take care

“I’m angry because it would be my only first time experience!”, beautifully said!❤

They say “ eyes are the window to your soul” I see yours, honest & sincere. Love your reactions, you are now my # 1 favorite reactor. You have a beautiful soul.

Dimash is a GENIUS Artistry, Perfection, Emotion Get tears every time listening... He is a gift from God. ❤

This, to me, is one of Dimash's finest. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Truly appreciate the work you do to bring us excellent content.

This is what the poet Goro Matsui who wrote the lyrics for Ikanaide said about Dimash's performance at the Tokyo Jazz Festival. Its taken from an interview with the Dimash Japanese Fan Club “I’ve heard ‘Ikanaide’ sung by foreign singers in their native language many times, but this is the first time anyone has sung it so beautifully in Japanese.” On December 9, Goro Matsui gave a short interview to the DJFC Japanese fan club, where he shared in more detail what got him caught up in Dimash’s performance of the legendary composition: “I happened to find Dimash singing “ikanaide” by chance. The first thing that surprised me was his crystal clear tone and his expressiveness voice that conveys the lyrics of the song. I’ve heard other Asian singers sing “Ikanaide” in their native languages several times. However, even though they all sing great, none of them seemed to quite capture the sound/reverberation and meaning of the original lyrics/words, and perceive the emotions between the lines. In this song, the phrase ~ Ah, ikanaide~ is repeated several times in the chorus. Although they are the same exact words, each line has a different meaning. I feel that Dimash seems to knowing it.”  Goro Matsui wrote “Ikanaide” together with Koji Tamaki in 1989. The poet shared that at the time, Tamaki rarely sang the song at his concerts. It took a long time before the singer started performing it on stage again. “This song is very difficult to comprehension like this even for the original singer/composer. I believe to be able to sing this song, you need to have “the time” which is many life experiences to fully express the songs lyrics, not just with singing ability.” Also, Goro Matsui shared that he would be glad to hear Dimash perform some more songs that he composed together with Koji Tamaki, for example, “Anokoro e” (“Back to the time”) and “Friend”.

Oh my God, you're amazing. I really, really enjoyed your explanation of each part of the song. And again, as soon as I see your eyes watering, my tears start to roll down my face without even realizing. I’m a huge fan of yours. Sorry I forgot, and Dimash too.

Thank you, Sir Hairless, for your emotional response! It feels so good to listen to music with people who can also hear and feel music with their heart and soul!! 🥲♥️

Your face speaks volumes. Thank you for your deep appreciation and love for music....

I can listen to this all day every day. Thanks for that heartfelt reaction.

By accident I started watching the Chinese singer show and that’s when I heard him singing this very song for the first time ever. I started crying inexplicably. I think my soul knew what was going to happen, because 10 days later my father was dying, I think God sent Dimash to help me deal with my father’s death. I showed Dimash to my father a few hours before he passed away😭 If it wasn’t for Dimash, I wouldn’t have been able to get out of that dark place

I’d love you to hear Quaragym-ai which has no extreme notes at all. He sung it on an empty stage with a pianist to accompany him. They both wanted to pay tribute to a beloved collage professor who had died from covid. Dimash finds the song very emotional to sing. It is heartbreakingly special. I’d also love you to see his mv of Be With Me which is a pop song with surprises galore. It will show his. Versatility. Loving your reactions..

Something about his voice pierces my soul as well. I think it's probably his ability to marshal every ounce of his talented being to communicate emotion. If you listen to his interviews, he directs attention away from the notes and stresses the emotional content of a given song as what's crucial to him. It shows, and I suspect it's why he doesn't limit himself to any one genre but instead uses elements of many styles of music to convey the meaning he wants. Thank you for another fantastic reaction/analysis by Sir Hairless.

Did you know Dimash first covered this melody singing it in mandarin? It has slightly different lyrics. If you watch him perform it in his concert in Kiev (before the war); you will hear another special ending, not the humming. At his recent concerts, he asks the audience which version they want and usually ends up doing half and half. He is such a sweetheart.

Одна из моих любимых композиций у Димаша ) спасибо Вам за реакцию, видно как Вы наслаждаетесь музыкой , исполнением, насколько тонко чувствуете. Видно как увлажняются Ваши глаза, это так трогательно 🥹

Very good reaction, thank you. Dimash is a wonder of the world. Each of his performances is a revolution in terms of the way he sings the well-known song or the way he creates his own composition. He is always looking for something new to surprise us and he is very successful in this way. This is one of my favorite Dimash songs. He is a storyteller. He said that his up-and-down notes are just his tools to tell the story and show his emotions...

Dimash, the best singer, and you, the best reactor, and analyst!! You always leave me so satisfied with your heartfelt reactions. Thank you! 🎶❤️🎶

Since you like this, you'll also want to check out "Daybreak" from the Bastau concert (best version). It's from a true event and he pours his soul into it.

Димаш не только супер вокалист, но и хороший человек, альтруист и мы любим его, Алматы, Казахстан

His innate ability to convey the emotions and feelings of the songs he does, in any of the 14 languages he sings in, is unmatched.

Once again sir thank you for your awesome reaction to this Dimash masterpiece.

I like the way you analyzed Dimash's performance and showed appreciation for the original version when contrasting them. Thank you !

Спасибо вам за ваши проникновенные, искренние глаза❤

Both versions are equally beautiful. Each in his own style. ❤ I love how Dimash often gives us comfort with his voice. He also did that in the middle of The Story of One Sky. It is like he knows the pain, and he is hugging our soul with his voice.

Dimash sang the Chinese version of this song, called "Autumn Strong" or "Late Autumn", on Singer 2017. Some things, like the soprano passage (except for a different last note), were in that version too, but the lyrics are different. That performance was the first time he had sung in Chinese to a Chinese audience. See the video "Dimash translated : the true story behind "Autumn Strong" with English Subtitles" for a version of the story behind the song, on Gloria Wu's channel (G Wu). Maybe for copyright reasons, that video is slowed so the song is a semi-tone lower. He ends that performance much like he did 2 performances later on "Adagio" (but more beautifully ?). Check that version out - I think it was his most emotional performance of the competition.

With Dimash, I often clear my head and hear a song for the first time again (even if it's the 15th time). I tend to live in the moment and Dimash sings within the moment, so every time is the first time for me :) --I'm always so happy with his fave instruments, piano and violins

Thank you so much for another delightful reaction! Ikanaide is on my top 5 of Dimash's songs and I loved to see how he caught you too right from the very first notes! Really enjoy watching your musically meticulous yet sensitive reactions ❤

Обожаю ваши реакции. Честные, эмоциональные и познавательные. Спасибо большое.

You said something I feel too: There will never be again a "first time" I hear Dimash sing Ikanaide. I sortof experience this by listening to others experience this for the first time, and I very much enjoyed your reaction. I listen to this song a few times each day for months now. I love the emotions, the pleading, the desperation, and final acceptance.

Лучший анализ на Иканаиде Димаша из всех, что я видела👏 Спасибо

Отличная и эмоциональна реакция . Замечательный разбор👍👍👍💪💪🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤❤

Очень рада, что хорошая музыка вызывает эмоции у хороших людей😊

yesssss, one of my favourite songs by Dimash

My favourite ❤ yes! I love it. Thanks for this reaction.

Спасибо Вам большое за содержательную реакцию на одно из моих самых любимых выступлений Мастера. Хотя - да, Вы могли ничего и не говорить, все было написано у Вас на лице ❤

Студийная запись Иканайде, у ДИМАША, это бриллиант в его коллекции. Такого чистого, такого контролируемого и прекрасного звучания я в жизни ни от кого больше не слышал. Нужно признать, что ДИМАШ, уникальный исполнитель. Он не поет, он проживает каждое произведение со 100% отдачей. Каждая нота на своем месте, каждый звук его голоса уникален.❤

Every song of Dimash surprises. Listen to his song,,We are one,, thanks for the interesting reaction.

Yes, this is so beautiful...makes you hold your breath.... Thank you for the depth and emotion as well as the fascinating music analysis.

This is a beautiful song. He sings a Chinese version as well and it sounds just as beautiful. Dimash IS music and he sings to our souls. 5:41 5:42 I can see that Dimash touches your soul, as well. Thank you for your educational reviews! Love the way you explain things. My mind goes completely blanc ,when I listen to Dimash sing. I love how you hear all the aspects of the music, including the instruments. All I hear is his beautiful voice. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for reacting to "Ikanaide." I assume we are now getting closer to "OMIR."

He had been performing the Chinese version of this song (Autumn Strong) for several years before he did this version. The back story of the song makes it relevant in both languages. But this piece more than most others really shows his maturation as an artist. The Chinese versions are beautiful but this one really pierced my soul. Also one of my favorite performances of Dimash.

Great reaction! Kōji Tamaki is a Japanese singer-songwriter of Ikanaide and Dimash performed a previous version in Chinese called Autumn strong ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FXQ58U-Eddg.html this song is based in a true story about Yoshiko Yamaguchi who was born in China, hid her japanese heritage under a chinese name, became very loved. After WWII, her heritage was exposed, she was arrested, accused of being a japanese spy, and sentenced to death. She was ultimately cleared of charges, but was advised to leave the country, as she risked being lynched. Dimash is a master of the story-telling, his voice makes you feel deep emotions and takes you there where that song happened. Beautiful!! A Japanese reactor mentioned that his softness with the hard consonants is a function of how well Dimash understands and has learned the mechanics (tongue and jaw placement) of the Japanese language. It's something very difficult for native English speakers to do. ❤️🎤🔝🔝🌹🌹👏👏👏👏

This is my favorite song by Dimash, so moving... I love your analysis done with such sensitive intelligence and skill, as usual, and the emotion in your eyes. Thank you.

Thank you for lovely and very professional reaction to our Angel Dimash

Como dijo un Dears, el es un regalo de Dios y un talento bendito. Es una canción preciosa con una interpretación maravillosa que no me canso de ver.💖🇨🇺

Thanks for the reaction, and I agree it is a lovely song. I like you probably would never have discovered if it wasn't for Dimash. You have to give him credit for picking such a broad spectrum of songs. It is definitely more 'Jazzy' than the original but I assume Dimash rearranged it to better showcase his vocal abilities and took into account it was beamed live to the Tokio Jazz festival.

Thanks much, Sir, for your most beautiful reaction to an extremely beautiful song 🙏🙏🙏🎼🎼🎼❣❣❣ Everytime i hear it, i want to get a cup of cocoa with a warm blanket over me and sitting next to a fireplace while listening to Dimash engulf me in this amazingly "warm" song 🥰💖🔥🌷

You should be a music teacher at university. You are explaining so well. And you have the perfect balance of emotional and educating reaction. I also appreciate how well prepared you are before starting a reaction. Thank you!

I love your reaction to Dimash, TY ❤

Thank you for another exceptional reaction to Dimash ❤❤❤

Спасибо вам за реакцию на Димаша! Я очень люблю ваши ракции.

Uncanny. Just following (or trying to) his sequence of this song…so beautifully soul touching.❤

YES!!! SO WELL SAID!! " I felt Angry because I knew that this will be my only first time experience". Wow. So well said. I felt my physical heart expand with love during the first 2 minutes of the song and I noticed that I stopped breathing. Luckily you stopped the music at 2 minutes! 🙃. ENVOUTANT!=MESMERIZING!

If I were to choose this one will be it. Beauty, tenderness, love, loss, and an incredible young man who can feel it, and make us feel every moment of it.

Боже, как приятно вас слушать, ваши коментарии прекрасны, вместе с песней Димаша это просто лекарство для души. Уже не знаю сколько раз пересмвтриваю ваши реакции. Продолжайте, думаю я не одна из ваших почитателей. Из Ростова-на-Дону Юлия

ESPECTACULARES TUS REACCIONES MUY PROFESIONALES!!!! ESCUCHA LA OTRA VERSION DE ESA CANCION LLAMADA AUTUM STRONG, ES ESPECTACULAR DIMASH SIEMPRE LA CANTA EN SUS CONCIERTOS.

Beautiful?? Amazing.... Im cryn over and over. Greetings from Chile

Большое спасибо за реакцию! Как всегда интересный разбор и вас выдают глаза когда вы в восторге от пения! Да и японцы в восторге от японского языка Димаша

Hello Sir Uma reação incrível e tão esperada. Dimash se envolve tanto com a música que nos carrega para dentro desse mundo magnífico de sensações. Sua analise/reação é tão surpreendente e incrível que me leva ainda mais fundo nesse fantástico mundo Dimash. Obrigada por tudo e tanto. Beijo carinhoso do Brasil ❤❤❤🇧🇷

I think this is the best reaction I've ever seen to this song. You did a lot of homework and were very thorough in your analysis. Thank you very much.

You are amazing! And handsome too. 💕💕Thank you for such a detailed and emotional reaction.

Здравствуйте голубчик, хороший выбор песни ДИМАША. Мне она очень нравится в его исполнении, очень. С уважением СПб.

I personally like Samaltau (Japan Jazz Festival) more. This song is beautiful though but Samaltau is just… his land, his soul.

I just love when your eyes get wet😊it means that you feel him by your soul by your heart. Like us

💕💕💕Pure beauty!! 🙏🙏🙏Thanks for your lovely reaction !! 😊😊😊

Have been waiting for you to react to this song. Dimash is the master of every note, captivating, mesmerising. Again, your reactions are always insightful, intelligent and interesting. Really, there are still so many songs by Dimash that will surprise, eg, Know and Passione. 🙏🏻🇦🇺

Спасибо, что наслаждаешься этой музыкой вместе со мной. Я люблю и оригинал, и исполнение Димаша. Каждый вариант слушал много раз, это искусство.

Thank you for your wonderful reaction to our beloved Dimash, always very professional and emotional.. I really like this! For this reason I would like to see your reaction to the extraordinary "The story of one sky". I also recommend 'Unforgettable Day', just the one sung during the GAKKU concert, where Dimash touched the note D8, outside the piano keyboard. Thank you for everything and welcome to Dimash's Dears team❤️. A hug from Italy. 🥰

I saw, with a little start of happiness and an involuntary smile, that you had found this beautiful song.This is technical and emotional mastery. One of his very best and just about my favourite. Yeah....I am so happy that you loved it too.

There are lots of people saying that they can not feel any emotion in Dimash's singing. That's crazy, isn't it? Thank you for your wonderful reaction🥰

Hands down ....the best analysis of this song....Thank you....💖🙏💖

Con Ikanaide aprendés a amar todo de Dimash. A él, su arte, su respeto, su sensibilidad, su pasión, su disciplina, pero sobre todo esa humildad con la que se brinda a sus Dears... ❤❤❤

This is the reaction that I’ve been waiting for. I love how your face is so expressive as you listen to the song.

I really love to see the love in your eyes and pleasure and a so relaxed expression on your face when you listen to Dimash singing - this performance is really pure beauty and softness and feeling and I love it so much! What a beautiful song! Thank you again, great pleasure to watch and listen to you!

Thanks so much for your lovely reaction, Sir. After watching your reaction, I will appreciate this gorgeous song even more! Your excellent analysis always helps me understand why I love the artistry of Dimash. 🤗👍💞💞💞

Моя любимая композиция в исполнении Димаша. С любовью из Беларуси

Great reaction 👏Dimash is a miracle of vocals ❤

Спасибо дорогой. У Димаша нет простых песен. Все песни со смыслом и историей. Не могу выбират отдельно какой не будь. Но Иканаиде очень выразительное душевное. И историей Кожи Тамаки. И Ошико Ямагути. И поет с душой всем сущностью и сердцем.

Excellent analysis and reaction to this amazingly beautiful song! Dimash + Sir Hairless = 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I simply love this song.💘🎶🎶🎶🎶👑🇰🇿 Thank you for your reaction 💐 💐 💐 💐 💐 🇧🇷

О,мой Любимка.😊Я сама эту песню услышала впервые в исполнении Димаша и пожалела,что не слышала эту песню раньше,а потом и оригинал прослушала и тоже понравился.Сколько же таких красивых песен я не знаю?!😢

Thank you, thank you, and thank you… so happy that you heard and reacted to this one - it is truly one of my favorites.

When Dimash sang Ikanaide; the original author congratulated him. And he told him that it was the best version of his song in Dimash's voice. Thanks and greetings from México ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣In fact, this same song Ikanaide, Dimash sings it in Chinese.️

Ikanaide (Autumn Strong) mueve cada fibra de mi ser, y me sucede lo mismo que a ti: quiero meterme a la cama, hacerme bolita y escucharla una y otra vez. Por supuesto también escuché a Koji Tamaki varias veces y me fascina. Me fascina toda la historia, y me conmovió el corazón escuchar a Dimash cantando esta canción en chino, en 2017. No podía parar el llanto. Me dedico a la música tradicional de la tierra caliente de mi estado -provincia- y a la del pueblo indígena mayoritario. Compongo basándome en sus formas. Hago otros géneros populares de diversos países de América Latina, y todo lo dirijo a las infancias. Esto lo hago desde hace casi 40 años. Tengo 70 años de edad. Y si te cuento esto es porque, gracias al canto de Dimash, estoy regresando a la vocalización. Y gracias a tus sensibles y hermosas reacciones, volveré al estudio de la música porque la dejé a los 18 años de edad, cuando fui madre por primera vez. Tuve que componer y cantar con pocos elementos, tomando un poco de aquí y un poco de allá. Ahora espero, con gran expectación -desde la primera vez que te encontré en este sitio- tu nueva reacción sobre Dimash. Para mí, tu 'reacción' es una clase invaluable. Gracias por tanto.

This song gets me every time... again and again. Chills, emotional and some tears... over and over again. You were spot on in your analyses, exactly how it is and feels. Love the original but Dimashes... I"m lost everytime. So so beautyfull.. Thank you!

My gosh Dimash!! Wow!!! It seems God truly shows off with each generation of who He gifts!!!

You are an amazing professional in music! Thank you so much for such a subtle and accurate analysis of Dimash’s incredible singing. I saw how moist your eyes were, and how you were moved by his performance. His talent is incredible! Moscow.

Thanks for one more amazing reaction/analysis to Dimash. I love your videos! Now that you reacted to Ikanaide, please react to the Chinese version of this song, called Autumn Strong, that he sings at his concerts. This version he sang at his concert in Kiev has a completely different arrangement and a great ending that I can’t ever stop watching! 😍 Here is the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-437IEsDIZfE.htmlsi=6iEdFhk4o_oSNEDe

dziękuję za super relację na Dimasza,uwielbiam go słuchć ,jest jednym w swoim rodzaju...pozdrawiam z Polski💋💕

J’ai juste envie de vous dire Merci. Merci pour ce superbe moment d’émotion. Écouter Dimash chanter cette chanson est déjà un grand moment, mais vous voir éprouver de tels sentiments est un pur moment de joie, de bonheur et de plénitude. Merci. Des bisous de France 🇫🇷 ❤

His control is OUT of this world 😭😭😭

I love this reaction, thank you! 🙏❤️❤️ When you talked about anger I teared up 🙏❤️

Mesmerizing, one of my favorites, thank you ❤

Dimash sings with his soul and body, touching the hearts of all who truly listen. The hum, for want of a better word, at the end , has me reduced to tears, its like a warm hug from a very much loved one
