Oh Phillip I was sobbing near the end this song…just looking at your expression to Dan’s performance!!! I have watched this video so many times with different reactors but your reaction touched me deeply!!! Thank you so much and looking forward to more Dan songs!
What an epic cover by Dan, gives me goosebumps every time. I'm glad you enjoyed this version of Amazing Grace. Dan always surprises us with how he makes the songs his own. Be excited about what's to come. Pay attention to his right hand when he reaches for the microphone... Suggestions have already been mentioned here and I hope you respond to them. Thank you for your wonderful response and for sharing.....
Dan turns this humble church hymn into an anthem for believers! I love the way the song progresses like a journey of faith . From discovering His Grace , to believing, to all out warrior in the heavenly army!
He is one in a million...owns the song, becomes the song, range is incredible...can rock anything....Holy shite!! Check out the others...you will be in shock!
Your reaction to this masterpiece by Dan Vasc was awesome. He really is a phenomenal singer and this is by far the best rendition of Amazing Grace. Thank you so much.
Dan Vasc's brand of metal and his versatility in being able to sing all genres to perfection makes him the greatest singer/artist in the world. Dan is blessed with great looks and the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.
Thanks for reacting to Dan’s stunning version of this beloved hymn, with his harmonica standing in for the traditional bagpipes. What an outstanding, carefully-constructed performance. BTW, there’s no “they” in Dan’s videos - it’s all just him. He lights, directs, records, and edits them himself. He also usually mixes them too, and until recently did his own mastering. And all done in his garage studio in Brazil. Dan’s a musical wizard and great singer, with the most beautiful, versatile, and powerful voice I’ve heard in decades. Just one more note - not everything he does is metal or metalized. He has extensive training in both classical and metal techniques, so he can and does sing a variety of styles and genres, and sings them absolutely straight if that’s how they should be sung. I look forward to your next encounter! I enjoyed your reaction. Subbed.
Personally, this is the best rendition of this song that I've ever heard. For a complete contrast in subject matter, I totally love "Battle Hymn", a Manowar cover, it's very powerful and impressive. I enjoyed your reaction and am looking forward to more Dan reactions, thankyou😃
I love your insightful reaction to Dan's cover of "Amazing Grace". In fact, I've seen women burst into tears upon hearing this song for the first time. Dan's cover takes listeners on a journey through his vocal range and showcases his impressive voice prowess. Please try his metal covers! I suggest "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher", "Rolling In The Deep" ADELE cover, and "The Number Of The Beast" Iron Maiden Cover", which is his most epic cover of a METAL song.
@@annelieshoornik The composition and lyrics of Iron Maiden are great. At the time they released the song, it must have had a powerful impact. Dan and Victor have made the song ready for the future. Their music video is iconic and will stand the test of time.
Hey, Dan always surprises us with his versions. And in this version, the respect he had for the music was admirable, as he is a Christian. And for me, this is the most beautiful version of Amazing Grace. Dan is unbeatable!!! Only Dan can surpass Dan!!! Thank you for your reaction.
In my opinion, Dan is by far the most versatile singer on RU-vid and beyond. Dan is never predictable, you never know how he will sing a song. He is always full of surprises. Dan has one million subs for a reason, he’s amazing! Enjoy your journey discovering Dan, you won’t be disappointed. I sincerely recommend his Celine cover of my Heart Will Go On. He and his guitarist Garett took this slow sad classic and turned it into a real headbanger, it’s Epic!
Dan Vasc with his unmistakable, unique, beautiful voice. A thoroughbred musician through and through. He lets his own spirit flow into every cover song. The professionalism and quality that he gives us is indescribable. Thanks for sharing. Highly recommended is Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody. It will blow you away 🤘♥️
Your reaction was very much like mine. My heart felt like bursting with joy and thanksgiving. As a woman of Christian faith, I believe this is how this song was meant to be sung. Thank you for your reaction, and thank God for Dan sharing his music with us.
I have heard many renditions of this song in my 65 years on this earth. I have been a Christian for many of those years. But hearing Dan sing this song does something to my spirit, it’s like a renewal of my faith. How anyone can listen to the words, hear and feel the passion and not want to run to the altar and have some of what Dan has and sings about is beyond my comprehension. Brings goosebumps to my skin, tears to my eyes, and a leap of faith to my soul every time I listen to him sing it. Your reaction was so great to watch, you felt what most of us felt when we heard it for the first time.
Yeah, he got you there with that scream, didn't he? It was moving to watch, how deeply it touched you. Awesome reaction. You should hear him sing opera, that's quite an adventure - his 'Nessun Dorma' is nothing less than phenomenal, and 'Music of the night', though not quite classical opera, but more musicalstyle opera, is simply beautiful. He also has some incredible duets with female singers, 'Time to say goodbye', and three more from Phantom of the opera. If you rather want to hear more metal from Dan, 'Bring me to life', 'Black wind fire and steel' and 'Number of the beast' are just some of the best in mho.
Thank you for your reaction. If you would like to enjoy more try some of his Christmas songs. Adestes Fideles is super fantastic. He does the whole song in Latin. Angels heard on high he starts in Italian, then German, then the choir effect with 100 layers of his own voice in Portuguese and the last verse in English. The chorus is done in Latin. Nessun Dorma, showscases his operatic skills and is epic.
This song always make me cry but especially when Dan Vasc gave us this gift ❤❤❤ it’s definitely an anthem song and should be done in this way more often!
Hi Philip, I enjoyed this reaction LOL. It is always fun to see people watch and listen to this for the first time. I was much like you when I first saw this. I hope you will do lots more Dan reactions and create a playlist for us too. 😊 This just started my day in a wonderful way. Thinking about the close-ups, I think it had to be this way.. far more intimate and impressive than a full body shot
A miracle was born. Dan Vasc's success reflects his hard work, dedication and passion for his craft. This boy is a true combination of talent, hard work and determination!!!! She literally becomes the song she sings and draws you into her world. Then all of a sudden he kicked in RU-vid's door and everyone is talking about him!!! Your star is rising higher and higher! You are a fantastic guy! I have never been impressed by a singer like this! It's a real heart booster to listen to him! And it's fucking good!!!/ sorry/ His song Amazing Grace will accompany me on my last "journey"!
Loved your reaction. This video was my first introduction to Dan Vasc last year and I've been hooked ever since. I just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to more reactions to Dan's music.
Great reaction! You should try Bring Me to Life cover of Evanescence. It showcases some of Dan’s vocal abilities. Also his Queen covers, Bohemian Rhapsody, The Show Must Go On!❤
Loved your reaction! Especially after, like you said, he evolved into the power & glory after sharing the warm intimate part. Dan has a knack for interpreting every song he chooses to sing. I thank him profusely for sharing with us. He nails it.
So beautiful! Try out I'll Make a Man Out of You (Mulan), Burn, Butcher Burn ( Witcher), Bring Me to Life (Evanescence), Priscilla's Song (metal - Witcher). Actually, you could choose any song he has covered and you will not go wrong. His last song was an "upgrade" on My Heart Will Go On (Celine Dion - Titanic). Too perfect!
Your reactions are great especially coming from a place of knowledge of music as you do. Thankyou! If you want to understand why Dan Vasc is truly a musical unicorn then reacting to his version of Nessun Dorma is probably your best choice . You will know why when you hear it : )
Amazing Grace introduced me to Dan Vasc and O Holy Night reintroduced me to him, at which time I subscribed to his channel and really started going down the rabbit hole. Just like you & many others, I was so touched after hearing his Amazing Grace that I had tears. It's my favorite version of that hymn. If you haven't heard Dan's Hallelujah Chorus (One Man Choir), his Nessun Dorma, Phantom of the Opera covers (especially Music of the Night), etc, you owe it to yourself to experience them. They will mesmerize you and leave you astonished at his vocal diversity and operatic abilities. Dan's not just a metal singer, he can do so much more & excel at all of it. Thanks for your reaction. 😊
Best rendition I've ever heard ... he held that last note for 23 seconds .. He can sing anything from ballads, to opera to metal .. check out Nessun Dorma, Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera, O holy Night ...so much more..he has finally reached 1 million subscribers ...Oh, also Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar
I agree...best rendition I've ever heard, as well. I also agree about that 23 seconds. Others have said 20-21 seconds, but they haven't realized that he STARTED that breath with the the last time the words, "...I see" are sung. I've timed it several times, with a timer, starting exactly where he takes a quick breath, right through to the very end of the calm, cool, collected, and effective statement offered by that, "Aha!"
Thanks for your reaction to this beautiful and powerful song by Dan Vasc. I've hear Amazing Grace many times by many artists, but never like this and I've never been affected like this before either. Anything Dan does is fantastic, so you can't go wrong!
welcome to the rabbit hole!🤣 I love Dan's covers so much. Especially because he covers so many different styles. I can definitely recommend Bring me to life by Evanescence🔥🔥, Toss a coin to your witcher from the TV series or Gethsemane💔 by Jesus Christ Superstar lots of love from Germany
Thank you so much for the reaction!!! Liked and subscribed... Dan is a Christian metal artist. He produces his own videos in his garage. His band is called FEARLESS. THIS IS HOW THIS BEAUTIFUL HYMN WAS ALWAY MEANT TO BE FELT. GODSAMAZING GRACE is uplifting, empowering and triumphant! As Christians we are victorious through that amazing grace!!! It was never meant to be a somber mournful cry, but a bold proclamation. Dan takes us on a journey from the humbling realization that we are wretched and need grace through growing and realizing just how GOD has always been there to the victorious certainty of our blessed assurance. I pray for this young man everyday. The harmonica was a gift from his dad. In 2017 he lost his dad to cancer. 9 days later he did AMERICAN TRILOGY in honor of his dad who was a big Elvis fan. Even through tears an amazing performance. Check out his one man chior... HALLELUJAH and.. AFRICA, BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, OH HOLY NIGHT, NORTHWEST PASSAGE, LOCH LOMAND, I'm 64 yo, never been a metal head ... until Dan.. Check out CHRONICLES OF ANCIENT WISDOM. There is nothing from early on even that is not proof of this young man's dedication to his artistry. He trains and works toward perfection coming as close as humanly possible. All his content is very enjoyable. Listen to STAR SPANGLED BANNER then his APOLOGY. He is more patriotic to America than many Americans these days. Thanks again!!!
New sub because your emotions came though so beatifully. Some reactors hold that back. A.G. was my first Dan song too. His musical performances are so moving and powerful that iit inspires strength. One reactor said he now wanted to go out and build a new barn. For me, I think listening to his power music is adding 10 years to my life. I was feeling, at 76, my life was pretty much done Now, I have more energy and a new view of my life. I can't get enough of " Dawn of Victory"!! But almost all of his music is inspirational to me. His power stance, grabbing that mike ..all are motivational to me. Maybe I'm not alone?
Nice reaction ! I just can't get enough of that voice and his skill... and I love watching him too, he sings it with respect and passion. Best version ever !!
Like Your reaction 😂 As for recommendations I will suggest some of his older videos- Faithfully Journey cover; Zombie-The Cranberries/Bad Wolves cover;Nightwish-Elan-cover by Orion’s Reign; Heart of Steel Manowar cover;Oh Sherrie Steve Perry cover;Africa TOTO cover;Burning Heart cover-SURVIVOR ; and like a cherry’s on a top -Wuthering Heights- Metal cover. There’s so many great other stuff. Just pick one and it’ll be good. All the best 😊🎉❤
Dan is playing his dad’s harmonica,this is the best Amazing Grace song ever sang by an amazing powerful metal artist, I love all his music 😊You must listen to more of his songs my dear friend ❤
Thank you, Philip, for your genuine reaction to this timeless hymn by Dan. I would highly recommend you react to Dan's cover of "The Last Goodbye". ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8qmfnFQfwLo.html Dan released this not long after his father passed away. Very emotional and beautifully done. Notice a tear down his face in the last verse. Dan will surprise you, every single time.
He also sings opera-his cover of Nessun Dorma is Gorgeous! I didn’t see any reactions for Lara Fabian (she is Dimash’s idol). A good start is Adagio which she co-wrote the lyrics for. And for a really powerful performance watch Je Suis Malade. I enjoyed your reaction!
Dan filmed this by himself with just one camera which he moved around to get all the angles, filmed in his garage with black curtains and 2 stationary flood lights. He does all his own arrangements & mixing.❤🎉
Funny... If I had Dan's vocal talent back in 1980 and sang Amazing Grace and Oh Holy Night as he did at my church, I truly believe that all the women in the congregation would have fainted and all the men would try to assasinate me! Burned at the stake so-to-speak... Yet, who can deny the true power and intensity of singing these great songs the way they SHOULD be sung, instead of the poor, boring, depressing originals. Kudos to Dan Vasq for stepping it up! And I certainly believe that our Father above doesn't want the poor, boring renditions. He created us with talent and I can be sure He wants to hear true, powerful praise! He is not an invalid flower on His throne, He is about creativity as He-Himself created this world. He is King, so why not express our true praise for Him with POWER? He will be coming back, not with a violin, harpstring and a bag of pot, but with great power, glory, and a Sword which Dan's music emulates. Much appreciated! Yahua is awesome!
Best rendition I've ever heard in my 82 years on this earth! He held that last note for 23 seconds.. There isn't anything he can't sing from ballads to opera to metal .. check out Nessun Dorma, Gethsemane, O Holy Night Son of Sorrow (if you wan't to cry)
Greetings from Malaysia Do react to Dan Vasc pergirns I:ll Make You A Man out of you (Mulan) Exirvt the Unexpected. LOVE hugs from yr 65 yrs old fan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Don doesn't always do all of the arranging, mixing, and/or mastering, though many times he does. Sometimes Gabriel steps in for arrangements, for one thing. Other times, that depends on the other collaborators. Also, he didn't used to do his own mastering (which comes after the mixing), but these days, I've noticed that he has done more and more of it, though still not always.
