Drummer reacts to "Je Suis Malade" by Lara Fabian 

No one, but no one, can connect to and transmit that kind of emotion like Lara Fabian. I flew halfway across Canada to see her a month ago, and she still has it, incomparable, in multiple languages.

Good to see a french song listened all over the world !

Welcome to the amazing world of the best female vocaliste of this century, she is now 54yo, still got a great voice, glamour look, writing new songs and touring the world, she is the full package.I greatly enjoy your honest reaction and opinion, i am a new member of your channel

To put it simply… She’s absolutely perfect! 👸🏼

it s not every day that we can discover performances like that

Sad that she'd never been recognized at her full ''greatness''... To me, she is the most emotional singer that crossed my life in music. She is so humble as a person. Never a negative word over nobody. She speaks and sings so many languages fluently... I am honored that she spent a great part of her life here in Québec, Canada. I met her once and she is devastatingly beautiful too. All my respect to this woman. Lara... tu es la meilleure, point à la ligne! Thanks for this honest reaction.

She is magic

Wow, she truly feels the emotion of the song. Yes, it's like she was in a trance. What an incredible voice!

Lara the best, the queen ❤❤❤

I had to smile when you said, you can see why Dimash loves her. A few years ago I watched a lot of reaction videos with Lara Fabian. I heard reactors talking about Dimash and how much he loves and adores her. I was wondering who this Dimash guy was and after watching many videos I was curious and watched a Dimash video from his channel. And so I found him and stuck. If not right after the first time. But I always come back to Laura. She is great and an excellent singer. Just like Dimash, I love her humble and cheerful nature. Greetings and love from Germany👋❤️

Mind blown. Incredible

Probably the most insane performance I have yet to see. I have watched people react to this for a while now and it never fails. People just go "What on earth did I just witness?" She's just literally telling you a story.

The absolute passion from her ❤❤❤😢

She is beyond amazing❤thanks appreciate you👍

“Je suis Malade”, now a french classic, was written by famous French singer & songwriter Serge Lama together with composer/singer Alice Dona in 1973. This is based on his own experience and he was the original performer, hence some lyrics are a bit male-oriented (eg my mother leaves me, whiskies, I pour my blood in your body, …). When Serge Lama had a dinner with Alice Dona and told her about his obsessive love that was leading to a road block, she came back home and composed the music in a couple of hours. The morning after, she presented him the music and he wrote the lyrics in … 20 minutes. Serge Lama was the original performer in 1973, it started to be promoted on the radio, and the song was brought to fame only when, a few months after, Dalida covered it. She was an absolute mega star in France, another emotional powerhouse, and this song resonated very much with her own feelings. Her success with this song transformed it into a french classic, and started to make it famous abroad. But it is Lara Fabian that really made this song a very popular song in many countries with her cover in the mid 90s. At that time Dalida had already passed away, but Serge Lama was (and is) still alive. Dalida and Serge were two inspirations for Lara, so she sent an audio copy to Serge of her version. She was unknown at that time in France but he was so impressed with her vocal skills and her emotions rendering that he invited her in France to sing it as a duet during his own Paris concert in January 1995. It was a triumph. So he sat in a front row seat and asked her to sing it again alone. Lara also had made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power. Serge and Lara became good friends and performed several other duets later on. The 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eHSyk4SGtuY.html is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent ones I am aware of are from italian singer Giulia Falcone, from the korean singer Choi Sung Hoon or from the korean band Forestella. Lara is used to perform the song very differently in each of her tour and for instance the En Toute Intimité, 2003, Paris Olympia version is even more dramatic ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SyILdRAOS88.html

hello, Lara Fabian sings in more than 12 different languages ​​and is fluent in French, Italian, English and Spanish, her musical repertoire is very varied and covers Barbara Streisand, Whitney Houston, Maria Caray, an exceptional and authentic artist and also a source of inspiration for many young singers like dimash she takes you on these

Broken vows should be the next one! Amazing song ,amazing performance , amazing lyrics.

I love Lara. Thank you. More please !!!

Amazing singer and performer, one of the best, and a good songwriter although she didn't write this song.

Linda reacción! Saludos desde Costa Rica! Hermosa e increíble obra maestra impresionante de Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e interprete del mundo entero, la voz de cristal más bella y perfecta que existe! Gracias!

That was marvelous, beautiful, and the lyrics were powerful. Loved it.

Love Lara ❤️ Love from Denmark ❤️

Thank you for your amazing reaction.

Thanks ❤

Supreme demonstration of talent; She's like a force of nature. Great reaction

Maravillosa Lara ❤❤❤❤

Lara Fabian my Nr one singer of her generation. Masterclass vocalist..performer..songwriter..storyteller...The whole cocert "From Lara with love" is magic. Thank you for a great reaction.

The acapella portion was a pure artistic choice, indicating that her despair was so profound that all music stopped for her, yet she continued to cry out to the world for relief. in fact, you will notice various members of the orchestra going to pains to stop any ambient noises. Lara was first noticed in the 1988 Eurovision singing competition won by rival Celine Dionne. Lara finished fourth, I think because her heart was not in Pop music. She is still touring at 54

Magnificently expressed dark pain

Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳. Thank you for the great reaction to Lara Fabian. She is one of the best female vocalist in the world. . Suggestion for next reaction : “ Je t’aime “ Live in Paris 2001.

Holy shit indeed😂😂 Yes Dimash can recognize quality for sure. Lara is not only breathtaking at a skill level but also at a soul level. Great reaction to this stunning performer👍 🥰🥰🥰🇨🇦

Dimash covered several songs from Lara: Adagio, Mademoiselle Hyde, Love of Tired Swans, Know. She even wrote the lyrics of his song Your Love and they sang together Ti Amo Cosi in trio with Aida Garafulina. Here is Dimash telling Lara he is a fan since he was a child : ru-vid.comrG6NjcAVAsM?feature=share

LARA UNE DIVA ,BONJOUR DE FRANCE

Thanks from France !

Good reaction. In 2003, she gave a different, even more heart-rending interpretation of the song (on RU-vid).

Lara's just one of the gratest performers in the world !

I am from Montreal and French Canadian, and I appreciate that you delved into other languages than English. Although I myself., mostly listen to English songs, I do have a long list of French speaking artists that I admire. If you ever want to hear another great French singer that has emotion and feel in both the lyrics and his delivery, you should check out Jacques Brel, Ne Me Quiites pas, to start. Bowie covered one of his songs ( The port of Amsterdam) which he translated to English.

Dont forget she was a writer first. Still is. Check out her catalog she has written for others. ❤

Lovely voice 🇨🇵 Zaz is fabulous french as well

She is the real beast live. Her performances from the same concert as this song are insane!

You tapped into something that I haven't heard others who've reacted to this song - the wonder how much of her performance intensity is her tapping into a flow state. When you really study this performance you see how many amazing performance choices she made prepping this song before stepping up to this performance. Also, if you get a chance find the full vid of the rest of this From Lara with Love concert and see just how powerful a singer she is. I wasn't a fan, hell, I'm an American and didn't know her before stumbling on that concert vid on YT back in January, but now after falling down the rabbit hole think she might be the best singer of her generation!

I think Laura's influence is why Dimash often ends his songs with an unusually long note. He knew of Igor Krutoy through his composing Mme. Zhivago with Laura in 2010.

I'm here to see a favorite Rush reactor shed a tear. 😅

The piano arrangements were great to me,

There is a performance of a song called Ti amo cosí by Dimash, Lara Fabian and Aida Garifulina that is awsome

Be sure to look for comments from Eric Sicard. He is the expert on Lara.

This song gives me goosebumps when i hear her sing it. Whatva voice and how she paints the song is amazing. Barbra Streisand is still #1 for me. But she is up there. She has aome qualities that are similar in my opinion

Lara's songs are rich and varied 15 records over 140 songs don't be content with her early live performances from the 2000s with these vocal performances Lara is much more than that some spectacular tracks "I an a Wa"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mKLdLox918A.html "l'oubli"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3ob-a4tPNcg.html "dance"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nHYi7rYD1yk.html "par amour"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rjrTd8VeP64.html "tango"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9p1UrKzYti0.html "papillon"ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dzWit_mevK0.html and many more to discover Lara Fabian is a true artist, author, composer and performer. a sunny woman who catches you like a moth in the light. lara the best of humanity....

🇨🇦 Serge Lama co-wrote this and first sang it, but even he admitted that this version by Lara was the best ! Read all the comments from Eric Sicard in order to navigate this Rabbit Hole ! 🇨🇦

I wonder why she has never done musical theatre? "I wonder what it would have been like if she'd ..."? What are you on about, sir? The fact that her voice does not need the support of loads of other instrumentation is precisely what is spectacular about it! You don't need to gild a lily.

👍👍👍

I think the intent was to stay minimalstic with the rhythm and allow Lara total dominance while she is telling such a heavy story.

Very emotional song, lara Fabian is a great singer performer but you have to listen the original song by Serge Lama. Or eventually the Duet serge lama and lara fabian

Your only reference is dimash ! I'm sad...

Keep your eyes on the screen, so annoying

Try ''how to pronounce words'' before doing your reactions. Sergey! Maladé! Your not even close. Malade is easy. Ma-la-the. Like ''the'' cat is asleep. Serge is a name. It's harder, but like I said it's an easy fix if you are not lazy.
