Wonderful reaction! This performance was from a Russian show that aired in the fall of 2021, and ran for 9 weeks. Diana was 18 at this time. There were 9 singers who were also the judges and critiqued each other. There were 9 genres of music they had to perform over the course of the show. Thus Diana sang in many different styles. Diana is 15 years old in the following video, singing a cover of Chris Isaak's Wicked Game, giving it a more "tribal" sound. She's a contralto, even at the age of 15, has a unique and otherworldly voice, and a commanding stage presence. She is performing on the Russian TV show You Are Super, a show for disadvantaged children to display their talents that they otherwise would not be able to. Diana (dee-ah-na) was abandoned by her abusive mother at the age 3 and placed in an orphanage, diagnosed with cognitive impairment. Her adoptive mother had her enroll in singing lessons to help with some speech problems due to abuse and neglect. Her singing talent was immediately noticed and the rest, as they say, is history. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kt78je5hD0k.html
Diana's voice is soothing like hot chocolate yet powerful like bells on a church tower. It has the power to conjure ancient feelings and atmospheres, and it is nowhere displayed better than in her famous performance of Rechenka at the talent show You Are Super for children with a difficult childhood.
My dear Lady Swift… From a very rough upbringing, Diana has risen to become an absolute vocal superstar… Almost like the female version of Dimash Kudaibergen 🌅✊😎🌅. She may start slow but once she “hits the afterburners”…. There’s absolutely NO stopping her from not just blowing your mind, but absolutely obliterating it. She is a sensation 🔥🔥🔥
Diana is firmly in the top ranks of the world's vocal arts ..... with her style. And I would call it "Harpoon Ankudinova"... With this "harpoon" Diana impresses almost everyone from the first seconds ... and attracts the listener, up to the last second of the performance ... And the spectator has only to "helplessly" allow her to pull herself out of the zone of the already familiar world vocal - into the zone of her element ... into the zone of Diana's musical tornado ...! And this "harpoon" is able to carry not only a man, but also a whale into Diana's element ...!!
Hello. Welcome to the world of “Queen of Goosebumps”. This is almost the official name for Diana. In this video, Diana is 18 years old and 4 months old. I liked your reaction. She is very correct. Diana is not a singer. This is a natural phenomenon, like a thunderstorm in May! But in life she is a cheerful, very friendly girl. Smiling, beautiful. She has a sweet girlish voice and a big, kind heart. She works like a bee. She is on tour all the time. At the same time, she completes her studies at the variety department of one of the best theater institutes in Russia. Diana not only has a rare and polyphonic voice, but also a range of a full 4 octaves and about 300 songs in her repertoire (she knows more). See you later. I'm subscribed.
It never ceases to tickle me how many first time reactors to Diana Ankudinova performing this song say, "I was not expecting that." Neither was I. Thanks for your reaction. 👍
Go back in time 4 years from this performance. Diana Ankudinova is 18 in this one. Travel back to when she was 14. The show was " you are super" so many great songs to choose from.❤❤❤❤
Спасибо за отличную реакцию на Диану,слушайте эту прекрасную певицу с замечательным тембром голоса и вокала ,ещё больше восхитит и удивит своим талантом! за реакцию лайк + подписка!👍.
Great reaction! I've been mesmerized by Diana's voice since the first time i heard her. Try Wicked Game, Rechenka, Deniere Danse, Human. So many more She is a dramatic contralto and also uses overtones to give that weirdness factor. She is close to 21 now and was 18 for this performance Read about her background for an amazing success story
Увидел в Вас родную душу, которая прониклась этим зовом природы в исполнении Дианы❤. Если Вам действительно любопытно, то на страничке Дианы выложены видео с детских лет, причем и те, на которых она пела прямо на улице, и те, где можно послушать студийные записи. Удачи Вам.
Вот такой он Мир Дианы ... Чарующий, волшебный, невероятный !.. И это дорога в один конец ... Попавши раз в этот Мир вряд ли получит обратный билет ... Благодарю за реакцию ...
Никого из тех, кто постоянно смотрит подобные ролики, не удивляют её мысли по поводу "контроля над миром" и "управления погодой". Исток этих мыслей понятен. Большинство людей, слушающих это, и особенно, слушающих впервые, несомненно испытывают ощущение, что ими управляют. Вы попадаете под сильное влияние чего-то очень захватывающего, какой-то непреодолимой силы. Сложно даже понять, что именно на вас действует больше всего. Но попытка разъять это воздействие на составные части бессмысленна, поскольку на вас действует всё одновременно. Это был хорошо продуманный замысел, идеально воплощённый и в звуковой, и в визуальной части. Несмотря на свою изначальную рациональность и просчитанность, он всегда производит впечатление некого очень цельного, гармоничного, как будто рождённого самой природой явления, то ли земного, то ли космического рода. Главное, что для этого требовалось - заполучить в свои руки такого артиста, как Диана Анкудинова. Артиста с большим голосом, большой энергией, собственной мощной эстетикой, яркой харизмой. Артиста, совмещающего в себе как рациональное, так и иррациональное, трансцендентное. Остальное было делом техники, то есть, хорошо проделанной работой многих талантливых людей, умеющих обращаться со звуком, с визуальными образами, а главное - умеющих работать с сильной, непокорной, нестандартной индивидуальностью. Работа с которой при правильном подходе всегда приносит богатые плоды, часто превосходящие любые ожидания всех, кто с ней взаимодействует...
Да, Диане необходима такая команда людей, умеющих работать с ее голосом соответственно с уровнем ее таланта. И тогда получаются шедевры. Ей нужна большая сцена и своя команда. Как всегда, спасибо за прекрасное описание необычного таланта Дианы.
@alexkash6248 Правильно организованная жизнь разумного и ответственного человека - это чередование усердной работы и удовольствий. А для настоящего артиста, как мне представляется, самое большое, ни с чем не сравнимое удовольствие - добиться успеха в сложной творческой работе...
@alexkash6248 Не поняла. Какая связь между моим комментарием и жизнью Дианы в свое удовольствие?)) Я предложила ограничить ее свободу?) Очень странное ваше замечание.
@alexkash6248 Если бы в её жизни не было больших проектов с большими залами и большими профессионалами - нам бы здесь вообще не о чем было разговаривать. И как только снова появится шанс в чём-то подобном поучаствовать - она обязательно им воспользуется. Главное удовольствие для настоящего артиста - успешное решение сложных творческих задач. А после этого можно и отдохнуть...
@alexkash6248 Диане уже не надо ничего никому доказывать. Но работа с хорошей командой может принести и лучший результат, больше удовлетворения ей самой. Ведь она настоящий артист, и, значит, пробовать себя в чем-то новом, в больших проектах не может не приносить ей удовольствия.
Listening to her voice only once or twice is impossible, her sound is a seriously addictive drug, the more you hear the more you want. She has ruined every other singer for me, only she has the extra dimension that gives me musical pleasure anymore.
Добро пожаловать в мир Дианы! Диана - уникальная и неповторимая певица! Невероятное выступление Дианы! Просто потрясающее! Диана победила в этом шоу! И отличная позитивная реакция! Диане - браво, а за реакцию - лайк и спасибо! Welcome to Diana's world! Diana is a unique and inimitable singer! Incredible performance by Diana! Simply amazing! Diana won this show! And a great positive reaction! Diana - bravo, and for the reaction - like and thank you!
Imagine if Diana & Dimash did a duet together with a perfect song choice… The power their vocals would produce would leave everyone glued to their seats 🔥👍🤪🔥
Все выступления Дианы великолепны! А есть просто ОФИГЕННЫЕ! ЭТО HUMAN, РЕЧЕНЬКА, ВЬЮГА, WICKED GAMES... Но это просто КРЫШЕСНОСНОЕ! И оно было два года единственным таким. Теперь есть еще одно. Это DUNE! 🎉❤
Welcome to the magical, mystical world of Princess Diana, The Goddess Voice of Nature. Enjoy your journey. She is a true Contralto and Polyphonic. BTW, you got the name correct!
This performance was my first listen of Diana as well. A pro vocal coach had posted a short about it, and I felt curious. There was a slight hint at what I was about to hear, but nothing could’ve prepared me for that incredible voice. Her utterly rich tone floored me, and I became a major fan very quickly. And I daresay that will not change.
Привет из РОССИИ!! Когда Я услышала голос ДИАНЫ, я спала с этим голосом в голове, и ОН не уходил и НЕ УХОДИЛ- преследовал и днём и ночью! Это, как, наваждение!! Теперь это стало ПОТРЕБНОСТЬЮ слушать его КАЖДЫЙ ДЕНЬ!!❤❤❤
The first time i heard Diana sing i thought wth is this. Her deep clean voice and those slides to higher pitch singing captivated me. She looks like a Disney Princes to me. Rechenka is another great song from her. You were just surprised as i was. WOW what a voice. Thx sntbll
@@SwiftReactionsThere is also a cover from the song Barcelona, with Tania Kross & Tommie Christiaan, original sang by Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé at Beste Zangers 2017. It is worth reacting to. 😃
You got the pronunciation perfect 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 She is a true contralto. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 Research some of her backstory. It is hearbreaking😢😢 Even with that, she has done so well 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Greetings from Scotland! Nice pronunciation! This is the normal effect that Diana has on first time listeners! She has the power to take away speech and reality as we know it! In all my years (I'm 70) I have never heard a female voice like this! I have followed her career fr nearly 8 years now and she surprised me continually as her vocal abilities became ever stronger and more flexible. She NEVER stops experimenting and improving. Diana is 20yo now, soon to be 21yo, but I've been following her career since she was around 13yo. Diana is a natural *Dramatic Contralto* so the lower registers are her comfort zone but she has increased her range even more since this. She also naturally sings with *polyphonic overtones* so it sounds like many voices at the same time! Any song, any genre, in any language, Diana can sing it and improve it! You need a little back story to understand what helped "create" this unique phenomenon:- Diana's awful birthmother had multiple miscarriages, but when Diana came along, she seemed to hate her! She verbally and physically abused her, trying to drown her and belittle her. It all culminated when (at 3yo) a passing relative found her in her home with a broken collarbone and several other injuries. She went for the authorities who removed Diana from her birthmothers care and placed her in an orphanage. For almost 2 years Diana never gave up hope and she knew that she was meant for something better. (This story is in her Wikipedia entry) Finally her new mother (Irina Ponik, who worked as a masseuse there occasionally) Signed her adoption papers and took her home. She vowed to pay Irina back for her kindness. Irina had a real struggle because Diana had obviously been badly affected by the experiences and at 5yo, she had a very bad stammer. It was recommended that she be taken for singing lessons to help this and immediately it was recognised that Diana had perfect pitch and an excellent ear for music and songs. 1 year later, at 6yo, Diana was performing solo on stage! This young unique phenomenon sang everywhere and anywhere she could, working constantly to earn money for the family who rescued her. At *13yo* she held her 1st solo concert and one of the songs she sang was in a very rare *Sephardic Jewish/Spanish* dialect, a song called "Me Voy" (I'm leaving) with a power and emotional commitment that staggers belief! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--9_c5fPrqno.html She was already winning every contest in Russia and other countries that she could get to. Then at *14yo* Diana took part in an amazing Russian project *"You're Super!"* for abandoned/disadvantaged children (because Diana spent time in an orphanage) The 1st song she performed shocked the judges and audience so much, it went viral. February 10, 2018 *"Dernière Danse" in French* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TvNIXBjaDxI.html Diana has already sung in *8 languages, Russian, English, French, Spanish, German, Ukrainian, Tatar and Arabic!!!* The rest, as they say, is now history!.............
This girl is a gift for the world and maybe wouldn't be a incredible singer if she had stayed with her mother. The hope she always had payed out finally. Good for her😀
@@louisminten7889 Agreed! Unlikely she would have lived to see 4yo! She had multiple physical injuries and was severely traumatised mentally too. Fate is fascinating, how it makes choices! One small change of plan, one second difference in your routine can be catastrophic or beneficial - always fascinating possibilities. Diana was being guided and she knew that. Smart young lady!
@@Hundhammer Hey Dominik! I hate posting such lengthy comments but I don't see how else to get the full "flavour" of Diana across in one go! 😊 I guess that if even 1 in a 100 reads them, it is worth it! Happiness and health Sir!
Thanks for your reaction and interest to Diana Ankudinova, who is by far my favorite singer of whole my life. To avoid copyright blocks in Russia you may want to cover the Diana's performance video with some kind of filter (You may find some examples from other reactions to her on RU-vid) and place some pauses in between and also include Diana Ankudinova's name and last name written in Russian cryllic alphhabet in your video title or description part to bring in more people to your channel. Diana's audience is very loyal and supportive to honest reactioners. Also you can ask and get help from great Diana fans who are very active on RU-vid, like Kwstas Vagias (Check his RU-vid channel definitely!)
За Диану сразу лайк Доброго времени суток Диану называют "Королева Мурашек" мне кажется что Диана просто живёт каждой песней поэтому звучит так великолепно !!! Её голос Драматическое контральто с полифоническим эффектом в голосе, это когда слышится сразу два голоса сразу,большая редкость
🙂🙃🙂Если говорить языком военных, то Диана исполнила эту песню идеально в стратегическом плане. Эту стратегию я бы назвал "Стратегия течения реки". В начале, у своих истоков, течение реки тихое, спокойное, почти незаметное. Чем дальше мы спускаемся по реке - тем течение становится более глубоким, широким, полноводным, быстрым. Ну а в конце путешествия нас совершенно неожиданно поджидает водопад - смертельный, пенный, рокочущий, грохочущий, бушующий, стремительный, необузданный по своей мощи, все сметающий на своем пути, переливающийся всеми цветами радуги... Кстати, именно эту стратегию исполнения песен часто можно услышать у еще одного гения вокального мастерства - Димаша. 😉😊😉In military terms, Diana performed this song strategically perfectly. I would call this strategy the “River Flow Strategy.” At the beginning, at its sources, the flow of the river is quiet, calm, almost imperceptible. The further we go down the river, the deeper, wider, deeper, and faster the current becomes. Well, at the end of the journey, a waterfall completely unexpectedly awaits us - a deadly, foamy, roaring, crashing, raging, swift, unbridled in its power, sweeping away everything in its path, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow... By the way, this is the strategy for performing songs that can often be used hear from another vocal genius - Dimash.
Добро пожаловать в мир богини природы Дианы! Ее голосом поет наша планета! Это голос Земли! ❤❤❤❤❤ Однако Вам нужно побыстрее забыть о Диане потому, что если услышите ещё хотя бы одну ее песню, то не сможете остановиться. Диана очаровывает своим волшебным голосом и он действует как наркотик!😊😊😊😊😊
Hi, thanks for the reaction to Diana. Pay attention, Diana Ankudinova's Life is on the channel, there are a couple of interesting videos, the soundtrack to the film Dune and "No Time to Die" for the James Bond film, where Diana performs a solo part, it's an impressive sight, check it out. And of course, my subscription to your channel.
Diana has a very rare voice - dramatic contralto + polyphony! Yusif Eyvazov, a world-renowned opera singer and dramatic tenor, stood up.At the end of Diana's speech, he said very correct words about how her gift should develop.
my favorites are "Human" and "Art of Hans Zimmer (St. Petersburg), soundtrack from the film "Dune"" and "Rechenka". her story and ages for each song is something to know.
To get the perspective on Diana's vocal development you may want to listen to her early covers of the Beatles Oh Darling (10 y.o.), Me Voy (12 y.o.), Non, Je Ne Regret Rien & Jodel-Time (the double feature performed as a guest at Moscow karaoke Cup, 13 y.o.). Otherwise just plunge into Diana's repertoir ar her personal channel - starting with Rechen'ka (Small River), Wicked Game, Human ... There are lots of marvelous covers and good songs and duets written by her and her collaborators - like the recent The Day You ... ❤
Mark your calendar, today your life just changed. The true and bitter challenges of her early life literally shaped her instrument into the amazing sound we enjoy today. It never diminishes and builds your desire for quality writing, arrangement, and performance. Its great to see talent explode without the pigeon holing and push the predictable. Enjoy your journey
For you & others who may not not know Diana's story: abused & abandoned as a child, didn't speak, was in a Russian orphanage for a time, her adoptive Mum provided voice & singing lessons as therapy, started singing in public at about age 6.....Diana is a a natural Contralto ( the lowest female vocal range ) and polyphonic ( able to sing multiple tones or notes simultaneously ), sings in many languages.......she is amazing and unique ...........
Спасибо за реакцию на нашу Диану! Кстати, выглядите Вы просто потрясающе! Сидит в кресле школьница лет 14- 15 и вдруг начинает говорить голосом взрослой женщины! Я в первые несколько секунд испытал просто шок!!!❤❤❤👍
Lol. I'm about to turn 40...not 14 . I had to check my daughter had not inserted herself in the video as I wasn't sure what you were talking about. That's funny. Thanks for the laugh.
