Danielle Marie reacts to Dimash-“Ikanaide” 

Gentle piece of help: when pronouncing Japanese words written in English, every vowel is pronounced. So Ikanaide has 5 syllables-Eee-cahn-ah-eee-day 💜 Edited to add: each IKANAIDE is meant to be sung with a different emotion. The lyricist of the piece said Dimash was the first non-native speaker to understand that and execute is properly. A Canadian Dear 🦌🇨🇦💜🇰🇿

Hello Danielle, I'm a long time subscriber of yours and I love your reactions especially to Dimash. If I may, I'd like to say I've noticed that you often and your video before the song is complete. In this one for instance, you didn't let it play out to the final note and it happens that you missed out on a very fine point Dimash put on it. Just a final gesture at the very end giving respect to the Japanese people and the fact that this was a Japanese song. Most of us Dears that have been watching and listening to him for years know that a Dimash video is never over until it's over. We've learned that you can miss some very interesting and touching moments if we leave too soon. I would love to see you react to his digital show performances of Give Me Love and Qaragym Ai. Thank you for considering these.

Como dijo una Española que reaccionó a Dimash, si no sientes nada con sus interpretaciones Estas muerto y ve rápido al Doctor y si es Médico Forense..mejor…❤️❤️

This was another very enjoyable reaction. This is quickly becoming one if not the favorite Dimash performance for me and it invokes a very visceral response in me, just as "Ave Maria" did. Dimash sang (and recorded) "Ikanaide" live for the Tokyo Jazz Festival Live stream in January of 2021. According to several native Japanese speakers, Dimash's pronunciation of the lyrics is nearly flawless. One native speaker, who gave a detailed analysis, stated that he is "expressing Japanese more (better) than Japanese" and that he does not only perfectly pronounce Japanese but "expresses Japanese…with Japanese emotion.". Goro Matsui, who wrote the lyrics to "Ikanaide," posted on his Twitter account that he has never heard a foreigner sing in Japanese in such a beautiful way. Tamaki Kōji composed the music and performed the song in 1989. "Ikanaide" became the title song for the Chinese-Japanese TV series "Farewell, Li Xianglan," filmed that year. It is the story of Yoshiko Yamaguchi, a beloved Chinese-born Japanese actress and singer during World War II who hid her Japanese heritage under the name Li XIanglan. Following the war, when the Chinese became aware of her Japanese heritage, she was accused of being a spy and sentenced to death by firing squad for treason and collaboration with the Japanese; she had been involved in the production of Japanese propaganda films. Thanks to the intervention of influential friends, she was cleared of all charges but urged to leave China or risk being lynched. She resettled in Japan, where she would continue to enjoy a successful acting career. In the 1950s, she moved her acting career to Hollywood and Broadway under the name Shirley Yamaguchi but returned to Japan in 1959, retiring from acting. She would go on to become a TV presenter and eventually a politician. She did not return to China for nearly 20 years. In 1990, "Ikanaide" was translated into Cantonese and sung by Jacky Cheung using the same melody. Later, the song was rewritten and translated for Jacky Cheung to Mandarin under the title "Late Autumn." In 2004 the Taiwanese singer Terry Lin adapted the song into a new version titled "In Deep Autumn," with lyrics written by Daryl Yao. Dimash chose the 2004 Taiwanese version arranged by Terry Lin with Mandarin lyrics for his performance at the 2017 "I Am A Singer" competition but gave it his own interpretation and titled it "Autumn Strong." This song went on to earn Dimash the "Best Foreign Singer" award during the Golden Melody Award in Hong Kong.

Thank you. This is a masterclass of vocals by Dimash. The song is emotional and Dimash's story telling ability is incredible. I appreciate your observations and thoughts. But I have to say that I just wish everyone would keep Disney out of their reviews. :D

Thanks for another amazing reaction. Ikanaide was used as the title song for a Chinese-Japanese TV series "Farewell, Lixianglan" about a Japanese actress Yoshiko Yamaguchi (12 Feb 1920 - 7 Sept 2014) who was born in China. She hid her Japanese heritage under the name Li Xianglan. She became famous in China during World War II. However, once the war was over and her identity was revealed, she was accused of being a spy and was deported to Japan. She didn't return to China for many years. Ms Yamaguchi did return to China in her later years as the Japanese Parliamentary Vice Minister of Environment. This song is saying goodbye to her Chinese name Li Xianglan. It is also a metaphor, as the lyrics speak of how a person has to hide what she feels inside. In 1993, Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung adapted it into Mandarin with the meaning of the song different from that of the original. He called it Late Autumn. In 2004 the Taiwanese singer and Dimash's friend, Terry Lin, adapted the song into a new Mandarin version entitled "Autumn Strong”. Dimash performed the Terry Lin version (Autumn Strong) when he participated in the 2017 The Singer competition in China. He sang it in Episode 4 of the competition and it was his first time singing in Mandarin. Regarding Dimash’s Japanese performance, a Japanese reactor said that Dimash’s pronunciation was perfect. It was as good as a native speaker’s. It shows how much of a perfectionist Dimash is and how many hours he must have spent on his pronunciation and delivery. In addition, Goro Matsui, who wrote the lyrics to “Ikanaide” praised Dimash’s performance and said: “I’ve heard ‘Ikanaide’ sung by foreign singers in their native language many times. Even though they all sing great, none of them seemed to quite capture the sound/reverberation and meaning of the original lyrics 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. “But this is the first time anyone has sung it so beautifully in Japanese. I happened to find Dimash singing “Ikanaide” by chance. The first thing that surprised me was his crystal clear tone and his expressive voice that conveys the lyrics of the song.”

Not a wasted breath or note, each articulated with a dedication to his personal interpretation and demand for flawless artistry. It's what puts him in a category of his own and makes it impossible to assign him to one. Thank you Danielle.

Thanks, Danielle. If I could watch a whole album of Dimash performing in exactly this environment, no one would be able to find me for at least a year. All of the little details we miss in other settings are stunning, and maybe Dimash focuses on them even more completely when he knows we can hear them. Can you imagine hearing his breath work in "Ave Maria" in this studio?? "Ikanaide" has become my favourite performance from Dimash.

Danielle, прекрасная реакция на Димаша! Привет из России!

Great reaction. This song, for me, is so touching and sad. He’s happy and he’s looking ahead to when it might stop. Right now, this is my favorite song. Dimash has a new song coming out and also a video. Igor and Dimash are together again. Bev

Dimash maravilloso, es puro sentimiento. La voz de un Ángel, hermosoooo. Excelente reacción 👍

One of my Top 2, for sure!!👍👍👍❤ NEVER TIRE of this; cry every time. Thank ❤❤❤❤❤

I love this performance, the amount of feelings he makes me feel are so many. I love him. Thanks for your analysis Danielle ❤️

Yes, Dimash does it again - and so did your reaction that showed nuances that many people don't normally notice but that microphone helps us with your comments to appreciate the DQ - "Dimash Quality" of all aspects of this performance. I thought I had already subscribed to your channel but now I have and look forward to you and Dimash meeting up again.

Thanks for reacting to this stunningly gorgeous interpretation - my favourite Dimash performance! Another masterpiece and a masterclass in dynamics and emotive interpretation!

I saw an interview with Dimash and he said this was his favourite song to perform at the moment. It is so beautiful and let’s us here some things we don’t usually get to here. It has this beautiful sort of ebb and flow, feeling a bit like Ave Maria that gentle in and out or up and down whatever it is. So soothing. Love seeing your excitement and appreciation. Can you imagine what it must feel like to be him, to be able to create such stunningly beautiful sound.

As usual, I loved your reaction! But please, please let the music finish. You stopped the video before the final instrumental outro, and as a professional musician, it's hard for me to express how much it bothered me not to hear the final resolving chords of the music. On Dimash's RU-vid channel, many of his videos have the "watch this next" video suggestions showing up a bit too early, before the music of the current video has finished. I'm not sure why it's set up that way, and wish that whoever is managing that for him would give more time for the music and video to end, or create an outro for him, or something, but please always watch to the end. If there's nothing there, you can always edit your video if you need to.

Dimash's voice can made my baby sleep

Dimash is quite the athlete. A lot of his training as far as his lungs are concerned, is swimming and swimming under water while holding his breath. All of his athletic endeavors keep him in great physical shape and gives him that endurance most singers do not have.

You are picking up all the right points. this guy is insane and just a generational talent.

Hi from KYRGYZSTAN 🇰🇬!Thanks for your reaction!

So excited for this!! 😍

Thumbs up before watching 🙃 I knew it will be great reaction because that studio performance is on another level and out of this world indeed 😇 thank you, Danielle, I've been waiting long time for that song and you delivered 🥰👍

Irretocável, sem palavras para descrever Dimash, um grande abraço do BRASIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💖

Great reaction and analysis. Thank you so much. Dimash is perfection ❤️ This rapidly becoming my favourite Dimash performance. Absolutely wonderful song.

The Chinese (Autuumn Strong) and Japanese (Ikanaide/ Please, Don’t Go) versions have completely different lyrics.. Both are based on a true story. The Chinese version shows the image of leaves dancing in the autumn wind as a metaphor for how fate affected Yoshiko Yamaguchi's life. ...sad but inevitable and irrevocably The Japanese version does not want to accept the loss, is full of pain, pleads, suffers ... heartbreaking. I'm totally fascinated by how sensitively Dimash distinguishes and conveys to the listener the feelings of sadness and loneliness in the Chinese version and loss and pain in the Japanese version. Even his whisper and his breath are music... it breaks my heart and the tears keep flowing.I have never heard anything like this from a singer in my entire life. That is true mastery. The original Japanese version Ikanaide/ Don’t Go(composed 1989) is by Koji Tamaki (*1958, Japanese songwriter). The sad true story... very touching: It is about Yoshiko Yamaguchi (*1920-2014), a Chinese-born Japanese actress during World War II. She hid her Japanese heritage under the name Li XIanglan and became famous in China. However, when the war was over and she revealed her identity, she was accused of being a spy. She was deported to Japan and longed for China. Ms. Yamaguchi did not return to China until many years as deputy environment minister in the Japanese parliament. The song is a metaphor as the lyrics speak of how a person should hide what they are feeling. Koji Tamaki sent a wonderful message to Dimash, thanking him, and praising him for singing his song in Japanese. Vbloggers, they reacted to the original by Koji Tamaki, they are mesmerized and can't stop listening to him. He wrote many wonderful melodies - you should check it out: Koji Tamaki 2021, Ikanaide - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OpgnM2MccCQ.html In 1993, Jacky Cheung (*1961, singer and actor in Hongkong) adapted the song into Chinese Mandarin, calling it Late Autumn: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dtM2EsgHD3M.html The most famous interpretation In China (first performance at the Singer 2017) was that of Dimash Qudaibergen and it was his first time to sing in Chinese mandarin: Dimash - Autuumn Strong - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kmi2cVijdMo.html This song brought Dimash the 'Best Foreign Singer' award at the Golden Melody Award 2017 (equivalent to the Grammy) in Hong Kong. * Great performance (Chinese version) of Dimash from Kiev 11.03.2020, the last concert before Corona paralyzed everything: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-437IEsDIZfE.html * Other version of Dimash: In Moscow on March, 2019 - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--ewR8Boc21I.html

Thank you for your sincere reaction to Dimash.... and thank you for your English, it is clean and free of parasites. I understand you and I'm learning English thanks to you.

You’ll recognize this arrangement, if you’ve listened to Autumn Strong, where he sang the same song, but in Chinese, instead of Japanese. You need to do a back to back reaction of Autumn Strong the Gloria Wu video. There is a huge story that goes back to the mid 1900s, and that’s all explained in Gloria Wu’s edit of Autumn Strong. Here’s the Gloria Wu video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FXQ58U-Eddg.html

Thank you coach for the honest reaction to our wonder🙏.Dimash is jusr wonder on earth❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Димаш, наш ангел посланный нам всевышним! Его миссия, достучаться до каждой души! Люди , будте добрее!!! Мира нам всем!!!! ❤❤❤❤

Hello , this is without a doubt , the best and most emotional interpretation of Dimash for me . This is an extremely difficult song to sing, and he does it sublimely. I love every breath of Dimash.

I just can't handle it: the distance to the microphone is monstrous! My heart is pounding! Medic! Medic!

Loved your reaction! Missed you reacting to Dimash!

I really enjoy your reactions to Dimash. You never get tired appreciating his songs, his voice, his performances. No way denying you are a dear 🥳

Oh yes, Dimash is very passionate in all of his songs. And you also are passionate in all of your reactions to him. I love it. Thank you so much.

Hello Thank you very much for your reaction to dimash.It's very nice to listen to you, we don't understand English, I wanted to ask if you could turn on Russian subtitles. It's always nice to hear your reactions.Have a good day.Greetings from Kazakhstan Astana.

Me encantan tus emotivas reacciones de nuestro Príncipe 🤴

I don’t know if you take video requests, but I have one. Would you be able to react to “Eleanor Forte AI - Fly me to the moon”? It’s a cover done with a vocal synthesizer, aka a robot is singing it rather than a person. I’d love to hear your thoughts as a vocal coach on how the synthesizer compares to a real human voice and how you feel about vocal synthesizers in general.

Hi Danielle, i love your voice, reaction, and also your beautiful face 🥰 #subscriptionsquad

Hi mam Danielle. Please react to katrina velarde and Jessica villarubin cover of i surrender. By celine dion. Thank you mam.❤️

Muchas gracias por tu linda reacción a nuestro amado Dimash ❤️🎶🤗❤️🇰🇿❤️🇵🇪

Hi, 🙋 I love😍 your reactions and teachings👩‍🏫😁❗ I have a question for you. Do you think another reason Dimash declined the offer to sing 🎤opera is because he liked to show his teeth 😬🍎and the norm like you said is the teeth🦷are hidden along with the notes🎶 at the back of the throat. He said he chose not to because he wanted to explore🔭 ALL genres of music around⭕🌏🔭🗺️ the world and didn't want to be limited.⛔ I am so glad he chose the latter‼️👏👏🌹🌹 Thank you Danielle 💜💛🧡💚💙 # SUBSCRIPTION SQUAD

From Russia With Love)))

y look quite good with y exploding head:-D Dimash is the greatest Light in our World!!!❤💖

Dimash-Daybreak,Bashtau 2017

Dimash is amazing 😊☺

Listen on Olympics from Beijing 2022 from Anna from roc He danced with ave maria from Dimash !

Thanks, un amazing performance ❤️

Thanks for a wonderful reaction💕

Although originally a Japanese song, Dimash had the song rewritten and composed in Chinese (Autumn Strong) to sing a Chinese singing competition. Later, he had the song rearranged and written to suit the original Japanese lyrical song (not Disney-like). So, can you imagine the complexity and the nuances required to sing this song CORRECTLY in both languages! His perfect pitch has served him extremely well in singing so many songs in multiple languages. I'm sure all opera singers will attest to the difficulty of having to sing a song in different languages.

Here I am trying to watch YOUR reaction to Dimash but I can't take my eyes off of his performance!

He's playing with the limit of a whisper becoming a wheeze and I love it. I think he gets bored with human singing.

Great reaction! You are very knowledgeable and entertaining. Well done!

Maravilloso único inigualable la mejor voz del mundo!! Gracias ☺️ 🥰 DESDE URUGUAY 👏🇺🇾 SALUDOS

Hi Danielle. I like your Reactions to Dimash. You are very positive, your reactions are very professional and interesting. I subscribed to you. I want to recommend that you watch the rising Russian pop star Diana Ankudinova. She is only 18 years old. Check out the song - Can*t help falling in love - I'm sure you'll like it. The whole world already knows her - from Australia to New Zealand. I also want to recommend you a video - New Year's Moscow 4k. And one more thing - Demonstration performance of the Figure Skater Anna Shcherbakova at the championship in Tallinn. All this is on Google. Well, not only music is interesting, sometimes you need to take a break from it. You don't have to react - just see for yourself. Good luck and don't worry.

Amei 💘 sua reação gostaria que você reagisse ao melhor cantor brasileiro Gabriel Henrique

The video cut off too soon. He closed by offering the prayerful Japanese position so beautifully. Great review. ~♥~

Morissette's Gusto ko ng Bumitaw in one of her livestreams pls...you will be amazed as usual... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Cpf8gXNNCtU.html

Just amazing and sublime 👏👏👏🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰

Time to react to “Stranger” keep an eye out for copyright, though. If you want to be blown out of your mind. React to the Shine Super Brothers S2 version of Stranger.

Как всегда реакция супер. Спасибо

You'll love this one, Danielle. 😊 #subscriptionsquad

Beautiful reaction!!!

Hi Danielle You've been gone for a long time, or I missed something. Whatever, warm greetings from Poland

Привет) очень интересно наблюдать за твоими реакциями , мимика лица очень привлекательна… ну и сама симпатичная 👍🏻 Волос жалко) зачем обрезала? Привет из России 😉

Понимающие понимают ! Отличная реакция ! Всё по делу .

Dear Danielle! Спасибо Вам за очередную Вашу реакцию на моего любимого певца - на Димаша. В очередной раз с удовольствием замечаю, что Вы обращаете внимание на такие вещи, которые проходят мимо внимания других реакционеров. Это говорит о Вашем настоящем профессионализме. И ко всему этому Вы так восхитительно эмоциональны! Спасибо! Я помню Вашу реакцию на выступление Димаша на китайском конкурсе 2017 с песней SOS. Было бы здорово, если бы Вы сделали сравнительный анализ того выступления с исполнением SOS в 2021. ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AUARjexCTlQ.html ) За прошедшие годы в исполнительском мастерстве Димаша произошли изменения. Я слышу их, но было бы интересно послушать об этом мнение профессионала. Я буду Вам благодарен, если Вы обратите внимание на моё пожелание. Думаю, что все Ваши подписчики, к которым отношусь и я, присоединятся к моей просьбе. Спасибо.

"Love of tired swans" the Next pleaseeeeee! ❤️ I love u 🤭

PLEASE LISTEN THIS FANTASTIC DUO!!! The Pearl Fishers’ Duet: Au fond du Temple Saint - Placido Domingo & Dimash Qudaibergen (2023) Performed by Plácido Domingo and Dimash Qudaibergen at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music in Budapest on 10 December 2023 Exceptional duet of Maestro Plácido Domingo and Dimash Qudaibergen as guest performers at the international finals of Virtuosos V4+. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dYmEckJj8sk.html This is a dream come true for Dimash. He shared that, at the age of 5, he had a VHS of a concert by Maestro Domingo. He dreamed from then to now to meet and work with the Maestro. This was part of a program called Virtuosos, which supports young classical artists. Dimash was invited to be a judge on the program by Maestro Domingo. I know he appreciated the opportunity to support young artists. We are all do proud of him and hope all his dreams come true. Dimash learned this in one day and had only one rehearsal.
