Vasc Nation is trying so hard to help him achieve his dream of a million subs, no one deserves to get there more than Dan! Thank you for your constant support of Dan, it’s really appreciated!
Yes, we’re counting down every single subscription he gets, it’s been a while but as he says in this song it’s worth waiting ’cause this day will come and we all will celebrate with him. He’s worked so hard for many years without giving up his dream, he’s an example to all of us in so many ways, and mostly i believe for the great guy he is, humble with a very good heart…it’s impossible not to love him, no matter you’re a man or a woman.
This sums Dan up in a nutshell so beautifully put together. I am honored to be a part of his journey even though I just subscribed to him in October of 2023. I am still honored to be a part of it.
I started listening to Dan about five years ago. He has always had such a beautiful voice, and it just amazes me how he just keeps getting better and better!
@@cclarke9301 I have over 200 of his covers on my playlist from him. I have enjoyed every one of them. He's working on something now one of them is My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion and the other I am not sure and I am excited for those songs to drop. I can't wait.
Same here. Introduced to Dan's "Amazing Grace" months ago, but subscribed when he did "O Holy Night" and I discovered the treasure trove of songs he'd done already like Nessun Dorma. His versatility is just astounding. It's part of my daily routine now to listen to something he's done and sometimes several times. Love his music, personality, etc.
Dan's early days weren't easy. It took him having to reach rock bottom emotionally, to get up and face the world with a "vengeance"! His rise to greater things shows how his tenacity and determination have brought him to this place. I just love his voice and his persona❤❤ I wish him God's blessings in his life henceforth. Thankyou for your reaction😃
This was amazing! Not much to say….we have watched him go from a skinny boy of 20 to a handsome man, now in his 30s. We have been able to watch him not only grow physically but mature musically! 🎶Awesome cover as only Dan can do! Bravo Dan and Bravo to you for the awesome and sincere reaction. Waiting for the next one…🎶🎶🎶
No tears here, I couldn't help but laugh at young Dan's wild jumping and headbanging - so sweet. And his humbleness in his outro is very endearing. He's an awesome rolemodel for young aspiring musicians.
@@joanholman3105 I relate to both sides of that picture. Every time I go back and watch the old videos and/or listen to THIS one (again and again), I get both the laughter and the fun, and the "mama" and now "grandma" thing going (we have six kids, 22 grandkids, and five great-grandkids). However, I still don't have dry eyes when this song gets over (and I watch it often). But then...I'm that way, as my own kids and grandkids know. It doesn't take much to make my eyes started watering...which doesn't mean I'm not a WARRIOR, which is the other reason I relate to Dan and his work.
This is such a perfect video from Dan describing his strong desire to 'go the distance'. This makes my heart want to burst for Dan and what he has achieved and is still continuing to achieve because of his strong desire to get there and his work ethic to ensure it happens. It's proof that a goal desired is a goal worth working for! What a great reaction. ♥
Thank you for that reaction , it brought tears to my eyes when you see now how far he has come, come on lets help Dan beat Gary ( Nerdrotic ) for 1 million subs, friendly competition between them , if Dan loses he has to sing ( man buns are gay and so am I ) composed by Gary , Lol subscribe to Dan's channel PLEASE , ❤Australia
I've been thinking about that. I have absolutely NO DOUBT that even if Dan "loses the bet" and does NOT get to 1M subs before Gary does, Dan (being Dan) will already have figured out the perfect way to sing that song...and...YET... That thought just keeps coming into my head. We all know he never gives up, and he tells US all not to. Dan, if necessary, will make a "loss" into the greatest WIN, ever! 😀
That my friend is a very true statement , Gary is at 956 k and Dan is at 941 k but Dan started 30 k behind Gary , and there is no doubt in my mind either that the song WILL BE EPIC....IF he loses , cross your fingers 🤞he WINS...❤@@GrandmasGotGraceLW
Dragon Force missed their chance by not hiring him but then I guess we wouldn't have all his beautiful covers to enjoy. I watched a clip of him doing keyboard work for his next cover. Looks like it is going to be Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On. Thanks for your heartfelt reaction!
@@sandycox2058 agree, but then Dan has managed to make me enjoy heavy metal in a way i never did before, and he's made me LOVE songs I've never cared for in their original form - so i have no doubt he can make that song legendary in a way that Celine never could.
❤ he is so, so beautiful. He touches the heart, the mind and soul. He is one of a kind... ❤ Found him 7 or so years ago. Am totally addicted to this man, his voice, ... can not find enough words... thank you for your reaction....
Omgosh I love that so much! So much admiration for a person who sets a goal and just doesn’t let himself waver. Thank goodness he never stopped…yes, destined for greatness!! So inspiring watching the evolution…
If Im not mistaken he was 20 in the first clip. From the little I know, it hasnt been an easy journey. Am very grateful he had the strength to fight the demons and achieve the success hes earned. Im saddened, selfishly, that he doesnt produce very much music anymore. Hope he doesnt disappear altogether. Loved your review of this. Expressed my own feelings about this perfectly.❤
He did the weekly grind to build up his channel to a place where he wouldn’t have to do the grind anymore. He put so much of his life on hold to do that, and now, he’s closing in on 1M subscribers, he’s in position to do passion projects - original music with Eric July and Fearless, the Manowar tribute album, other covers. No need to be sad or worry about him going anywhere. The man is doing exactly what he was born to do, and he’s not going anywhere.
Im aware of his other projects. It wasnt a criticism; no one would expect any performer to.keep that pace up; particularly as he does almost all the behind the mic stuff too. I was referring to his you tube channel. Not everyone is able to follow on other platforms
Well, if you take into consideration, the amount of work he puts into every detail of his videos, and into keeping himself fit, in order to deliver the quality he wants, then it's only fair, that he doesn't put out more, especially when he also has people pulling on him from all sides to do podcasts, participate on livestreams etc. And he has his family too, and a life outside of youtube.
I'm so thankful for your reactions to Dan. Its evident that you're a fan too and it makes us so thankful. I'm crying tears of joy right now, to have been able to watch him grow up into such a good strong Christian man. What a role model for our young people. Thanks again for making it possible for us to share this as vascnation. We build each other up
❤Dan WILL be famous and yes destined for greatness, even forget his voice, it's his humanity and the hard work and luv for his craft, such love and emotion and determination 🎉🎉
His first audition is still available to watch! He says it's terrible. I'll just say that he's come a long way. Lol It's fun to check out where his fabulous RU-vid journey began - can't wait to see where it goes next! 🫡
I could easily watch you react to Dan 24/7 ...your appreciation of this awsum human being fills mine and so many hearts with joy. Thank you again...we need more, so much more, Enter the Sandman, Kickstart my Heart, Fearless songs, theres over 200 songs on YT...lets push him through that million xxxx
I can’t understand why there isn’t well over a million subscribers. He is an absolute genius in so fkn many ways. Something I have to say too. He’s so adorable at the end of his videos. I can’t help it, he just is.
I like this,that you can see where he come from and what he is now. I love this. He deserves those one million subs, he should have them a long time ago, I think..Thank you from let see this❣🥰🥰
Dan just proves that with hard work, dedication & a passion for your dreams/goals - you can reach your desired heights. I cannot wait to see what's next. Great reaction. Hail Vasc-Nation ❤️🤘✝️
That is what Dan is made of pure determination...love this video..Dan is the BOSS as he puts his special and unique input in all his covers..he makes these covers his own..❤💕
Goosebumps when His name melts with th instrumental. Daniel truly worked hard, not only music whise, but emotional & intelectual. His voice almost breaks, but its just what it needed.
Loved watching your face reflect everything Dan’s fans feel when first discovering this. After discovering Dan, there’s just no way to watch this without running amok with emotions. Amazement, awe and respect that ends in a righteous fist-bump salute to his perseverance! Had he not, had he given up… the notion of this void is abhorrent to think of. If there were magic buttons to push, wands to wave, words to say that would grant Dan his 1M subs tomorrow, we his fans would have pushed, waved and spoken him there yesterday! Truly enjoyed this reaction, I always do as you’re a fanatic too and it always shows. Thank you. 😊
Loved this reaction to a unique music video. Your reactions to Dan's music are heaven to watch and entertaining in their own right. We can watch music and vocal teachers react to Dan's videos and explain the intricacies of his amazing talent. BUT you give us the perspective from a layman's point of view and also someone who respects Dan for his efforts, his challenges, his glorious music and as a person who deserves their privacy as much as you and I do. Thank you for a wonderful insight into and appreciation of Dan's masterful video.
Wow, made me alittle emotional, Dan is just a Dream & a beautiful song & Dan's voice has a amazing range, like I said b4, keep Dan on play ▶️ & a great reaction from you as always💙☮️🤘
Thank you for yet another fantastic reaction to Dan. Your surprise at what you were about to watch, when you saw the first image, was only overtaken by your pure enthusiasm as the video progressed. And you are so right, if ANYONE was destined for greatness, it's Dan. It is evident beyond doubts he has been gifted with an incredible talent for music and a divine voice, which laid the natural foundation for his soul's dream. But it's also very clear, that if he hadn't had the strength and determination of spirit to work as hard as he did through all the years, he might have become a good singer, but not the master he became. But also, we also know no matter how hard he would've worked, had he not had the gift of sheer talent from the start, he would've been just like so many of the musicians we see in the mainstream industry today.
I agree, and it also makes me think of his family--including both his mother and father. From what I've heard Davi say on HIS channel, he and Dan have had similar hurdles standing in their way over the years, but due to how they were brought up, they've jumped them, and gone right on around the track. I intend, for the rest of MY years and miles and miles of track left to me, to be blessed watching and listening to THEIR years and miles and miles of track...as long as they'll let us...and I hope that will still be a very long way out into the future.
Great way to start the new year! I love this video and seeing how far Dan has come since the DragonForce Singer Audition days. So curious to see how he celebrates hitting 1,000,000 subscribers!
😂 These pictures give all those people something to think who assume his current success happened by accident. He has a beautiful flattering voice here. ❤ And for example in "Dawn over a new world" he is at least my favorite DragonForce singer. 😉 This was a beautiful reaction - thank you. 🎶
i know you react to a lot of dan's covers, and am surprised that you have not run into this before now. it is truly precious. those of us who have watched him for the last few years can really feel like we watched him grow into the talented and confident performer that he has become. it is truly inspirational. thanks for reacting; had not seen it in a while.
Great stuff, eh? A testament to his talent, genius, and fierce determination. When this was made, in 2018, he was still very far away from his goal, and now, in early 2024, he’s almost there. What an inspirational guy. BTW, I recently took a look at the Siege of Paris video, where he does four vocal parts. I was pleasantly surprised by his creativity, his voice then, and his already sophisticated editing skills. It’s worth a look. Thanks so much for putting this on - it’s a great start to the year. I’m so looking forward to Dan’s one millionth subscriber video!
Yes, it in indeed a wonderful inspirational start of the year. He's already there, he's living his dream every single day, doing exactly what he wants and loves. His 1mill subscribers is just a goal, a steppingstone on the path - it's not his destination.
@@TheAnnestube I agree! I always think of it as his "interim" goal. I cannot imagine Dan intending to stop everything when the 1M mark hits, and saying goodbye to everyone! I really don't think so...uh-uh! 😀
It's so good to see how far did he got through. Very well deserved. Dan Vasc is just far beyond amazing. Loved how he put his all into this song. Beautiful and touching. Thanks for your lovely and perfect reaction. Awesome.
Great reaction. This was Dan's 100th video - his celebration of how far he and his channel had come at that time. That old, original Dragonforce Singer Audition is still out there. He re-recorded that song 5 years later (along with Victor the Guitar Nerd) (or maybe it was 10 years later) to show how far he had come since he first began. It would be fun if you could do a double-reaction to those two videos back to back.
The song was superbly performed and the growth Dan has achieved from the beginning to now is astounding, his personality and performance has become power and strength day by day. ❤❤ thankyou for your great reaction always
Thanks for reacting to this one. I haven't watched it in a long while, but I was still moved to see it again. You really should go and watch that first video he made and then check out his 3rd video, Living on a Prayer (he has remade that one since then). His Dad paid for him to have voice lessons after the Dragon Force audition cover and he stuck to them. You can hear the progression in his singing skills. It's an amazing transformation. Love that you appreciate him like the rest of us do and I hope to keep hearing more.
Right there with you. Every time I go back and binge on this again, it lifts me up. I'm glad you waited until now! Often, after the holidays, there are a lot of people who end up in a slump, for at least a while. This song is definitely a lifter. Thank you for another wonderful Dan reaction, sir. I really, really, REALLY enjoy your insights into music in general, but more than anything, into Dan's music.
I cry a lot with this cover, a movie plays in front of my eyes, for those like me, who have been following Dan since 2013, because being the daughter of a musician, I know how arduous and difficult this road is. New cover is coming - MY HEART WILL GO ON - CELINE DION , TITANIC METAL 😂😂 TKS ❤
Ro--YES! Being the daughter of a musician is a wonderful, wonderful thing, but not always (rarely, actually) easy. I, too, am the daughter of a fabulous, wonderful musician. Interestingly, I am now the oldest singer/musician in our still-living parts of the family, but I have six kids who all can sing beautifully, and most of them play instruments, as well. That includes the littlest guy here at home, who will be four years old on the 31st of January 2024 (my husband and I share ownership in a small hobby farm, with our youngest daughter, her husband, and their eight children (ages 19-1/2 down through almost-four). Judi & Harry are passing the flag down to their children. I have only met one of my five great-grandchildren, but from what I hear, those little ones are being brought up with music in their hearts as well. My heart will definitely go on. I truly hope that is the new song Dan will soon be singing to us. 😀
How lucky are we to watch Dan progress over the years. I wasn't around in the beginning of his journey but I feel blessed to be here now. We truly are watching greatness unfold before us. God bless you Dan, I hope you reach everything you're searching for. You were meant to do this! oxoxox
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland, wow, ich liebe es wie respektvoll Du mit Künstlern umgehst und wie Du versuchst aus Dan-Nation Dan World zu machen. Vielen Dank!
If you go listen to his earliest videos, you could tell that there is great potential there, were they really good well depends on who you talk to I suppose. And then listen to him now, yeah, it’s great that he took all this time to put into the work and the training and and just kept with it. Dan is amazing!
We only can slightly imagine the way full of hardships that Dan Vasc went through from this oh bloody young man to the best metal singer in the world. There's a song by Dan Vasc that he released to mark the 10th anniversary of his channel three years ago: DRAGONFORCE Cover - "The Last Journey Home." I believe now is the right time, not only for you but also for Dan, for you to react to it.
Thank you for showw dan vasc to everybody ❤❤ Love you lost for words..i am lost for words to... and i love you so muth too.❤❤ best regard nina bj. From norway
I so love your reactions. Thank you. I haven't watched this Dan Vasc video in a while andI am watching the dates and wondering why I did not find him before 2020, that is when I fell down the rabbit hole and am going the distance with him. He is so amazing!!
