Reaction - Dan Vasc - An American Trilogy - A USA Memorial Day Dedication 

I've seen this cover a thousand times and I always cry like it's the first time Dan suffers and closes his eyes because he's mourning his father who had passed away days before, it was a tribute to him for loving Elvis and this song, tks

Thank you for your excellent response to this special cover by Dan. With the background knowledge, it is amazing how he managed to sing this song for his father. " Love me Tender " by Elvis Presley sung by Dan is a heartbreaking sequel. Be curious and let yourself be surprised. I am sure you will like it. Thanks for sharing.....

As others have mentioned, this is hard to watch, seeing Dan in such emotional pain. It wasn't easy for him to "keep it together". Respect Dan! And respect for your country's history, I'm South African. Thankyou for your informative reaction and looking forward to more Dan reactions😃

Perfect song 🎵 . Thank you also for the history of the song. I wasn't aware of that stuff before.

Beautiful song. Dan was very emotional.

Thanks 🙏

Dan's Brazilian Portuguese dedication at the beginning of video is translated: "For my beloved father Roberto" At the end of this tribute video, Dan added a photo of himself as a child with his father and wrote:: "Sleep with God, Dad. See you soon." His father loved Elvis' voice and Dan often sang Elvis songs when requested in earlier years.

Todd, I was able to see Elvis Presley within his last year of his life. Through my life I have been to multiple concerts but none touched me like Elvis'. Even though he was not well physically or emotionally , the concert was amazing. Thank you for your comments and for sharing Dan's connection to the song. I don't think I could have held it together performing a piece that ment so much to a family member. God bless. Sherry from Alabama.

Dan's father Roberto died 6 years ago. This was his favorite song of Elvis, he was a big fan of Elvis. 5 days after losing his father, Dan recorded this as a tribute to his dad.

thank you so much for the history of the song, makes so much more sense to me now as to why they are sung together. now i cry even harder when watching it. thanks for the great reaction of this beautiful and heart wrenching trilogy.

That was a beautiful cover of this song. Thank you for explaining the history behind its inception too. I’ve always really liked it but didn’t know all the background. I enjoyed your reaction very much & I think it’s a very fitting song to feature on a day honouring veterans.

Thank you so much for your your great reaction and the information! If you haven't checked out Dan singing The Starspangled Banner, I suggest you do so. And also his "Apology", as he got some negative replies.😉 😉

He performed this so bravely while grieving for his Father. Beautiful voice and beautiful heart. Thanks so much for bringing this song to us today. God bless America.

Dan's father died 5 days ago. He sang the song in memory of him. So beautiful! Usually Dans songs give me energy, but this one made me cry with him !

Dans dad had died just 5 days before he sang this song. He sang it as a tribute to his dad who was an Elvis fan and loved the song. Dan looks up to Heaven while singing it to his dad. It almost choked him up toward the end after singing your daddys bound to die. Makes me tear up every time I watch this. And I absolutely love how he sings this so beautifully. Thanks for your great reaction!!

SO MUCH FEELING, THANKS DAN VASC FOR YOUR EXCELLENCE IN SINGING THIS TRILOGY. 😊😊

He himself already wrote it under his song... It was the favourite song of his father who was an Elvis fan.. 5 days before he song this his father died.. Ofcourse he is not making a metal version of this ... When he iss looking down he is thinking about his father... 🙏🏻 The tears, i cry with him every time i seee this song..🥹😭 Dan Vasc also did love me tender ‼️

Can hardly stand to watch this one... the pain in Dan's eyes is heart-wrenching... his father had died shortly before he made this video in honor of his dad ... you can see the tears... Elvis was his dad's favorite... so I will listen... and see what your reaction is. Well it did not help... bawling my eyes out.... Thank you...

His dad had just died so it was real for him. Cannot imagine what restraint that took.

Thanks for playing this heart-wrenching performance. I enjoyed your discussion of the song’s origins. - very interesting! It’s always a good idea to check Dan’s page to see if he has something to share - important, informative, or even funny. In this case his father’s recent death shaped this incredibly moving performance. And BTW, not everything on Dan’s channel is metal; if he “metalizes” an ordinary song, he always states that. Dan can actually sing just about anything, in any range and in any style. I would love to hear you discuss Love Me Tender (and Aura Lee perhaps.) PLEASE be sure to play Dan’s brief intro if you do! Many thanks.

This is a beautiful rendition of this song. Dan is a big fan of the USA. He sang the Star Spangled Banner. He did so much a great job that he should sing it during the Super Bowl. If you watch it and/or react to it please do a double reaction because he does an “apology” video later for singing our National Anthem. Hail VascNation ❤

Loved the history you gave on this song, Never knew the 3 parts, the south,north, and the African folk song. This song makes so much more sense now! The fact that Dan’s Dad passed away a week before this always gets to me… you can see his pain, but the tribute to his Father was so beautiful!❤

This is such a beautiful tribute to his Dad. I have listened to it several times and can’t get through it without tears. I’m sure his Dad is bursting with love and pride every time someone plays Dan’s version. Loved your history of the song also! 🎶💕

So glad you are going down the Dan Vasc rabbit hole…. You have just experienced the joy and tears that come with everything that is Dan! Great reaction!!

Thank You! Breaks my heart every time.

This is so moving and Dan has such a beautiful voice.

❤

Just gorgeous. Nice song, too!! lol🎉 God bless the USA❤❤❤

More intense than Elvis' version, which was one of the top requests when I hosted a Saturday night request show on 104.3 KOOL Oldies in Boise, ID, in the late 90's/early 2000's.
