Lara Fabian is amazing. I saw her in Tallin in october 2022. She is still going strong. I love that artist and wonderful woman.❤ Thank you for sharing Lara with us.👍And thank you for a great reaction.
Hi there, Thank you a thousand times Maria for reacting again to Lara Fabian and specifically to this song which is one of my favorites from her English album "From Lara with Love" and which I had suggested to you. 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤ This song, written and composed mostly by Lara but with the cooperation of Walter Afanasieff, is a pure Masterpiece highlighting the end of a love affair that she was actually experiencing at the time. It's no secret that Lara shared Walter Afanasieff's life and had ended their love affair after a deception, exactly as the song says ........😘😘🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤ So our Lara, with her always Vibrant and Spectacular Interpretations, sets the bar very high in "Broken Vow", as she Simply and Poignantly delivers her Suffering, Despair and Sadness to us in their " Rawest " state ..... We can't help but identify with, and connect to, so much Sincerity delivered Majestically with such Strength and Passion. Her Exceptional Voice, her Soaring vocals, her Brilliant interpretation carried by this Magnificent Melody, Masterfully Sublimated by this Philharmonic Orchestra, make this Rendition a Real MASTERPIECE and an Unforgettable Experience. 💎💎🙏❤🙏 Lara in this video sings like an Angel , performs like a Great Diva , and is Breathtakingly Beautiful .....🤩😘😂💙💚💛💛💙 Thank you so much Maria.🤩😘😘👋👋💦💦👍👍👍 I hope to see you soon for more reactions, and may I suggest another little Vocal Treasure from the same era, "You're Not From Here". You'll love it, I think. 💎❤🙏❤
The music of Broken Vow was co-composed by Walter Afanassiev and Lara Fabian. Walter Afanassiev, an american/brazilian from russian descent, is a legendary composer and producer (he composed some of the greatest initial hits of Mariah Carey such as All I Want for Christmas is You or Hero and was the producer of the Titanic soundtrack that brought Celine Dion to WW fame). He is also now the producer of Dimash for his US career. When this song was composed, Walter and Lara were engaged, but apparently he cheated and she decided to break up. When she took this decision, that she knew would dramatically change both her personal and professional destiny, she wrote these incredible lyrics. Lara has said this is her preferred english song from all the songs she wrote in this language (there are many, and some are pure jewels). One reason is also because this song has then been covered by the greatests: - Barbra Streisand (she performed it in concerts from one of her tour but never recorded it), - Josh Groban (his cover made this song famous in US, she is her friend and role model and he made several duets with her), - Cakra Khan, - Gigi de Lana, - Regine Velasquez, - Almira (from 4th Impact), - Katrina Velarde, - Julie Anne San Jose, - Sarah Geronimo, - Morissette Amon, - Petra Berger, - Harrison Craig, - Rimar, - Jackie Evancho, - … Jackie Evancho, and at the request of Jackie's parents who found the original lyrics were not a good fit for a young girl, Lara rewrote Broken Vow in french as "Imaginer" with a complete different meaning. But the original from Lara remains the absolute reference ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kJBGCI8aSE4.html
The velvety voice of Lara A moving song And Lara sings always so effortless, no ugly faces in the very high notes , an endless breath control. ""liquid gold for the ear"" somebody said once... Always a joy to look at and to listen to. Her presence on the sage is also so minimalistic. Simple dresses, a light make up, no or a minimun of jewelry , no flashy fingernails, no dancers of other special effects on the stage. ......The only thing that the audience gets and the audience captivates is her beautiful strong but velvety 4.1 octaves soprano voice and her emotional performances.

Another lovely reaction on Lara Fabian, she is such an amazing artist!!! There is this other singer-songwriter from so many years ago, and still in my mind with her songs from when I was a young girl.(At 17) Janis Ian has a more recent, very beautiful song: She must be beautiful A very delicate song and so beautiful! Thanks for your reactions on various artists.
Thank you for your very sincere and rather emotionally touched reaction. Lara is a true gem, master in conveying emotions when delivering her songs. Her performances are stunning with an awesome presence and superb, untouchable vocal skills. If you first of all follow the covers that Dimash has done of some of her songs, you will know more about he has become the vocalist he is today. She remains his biggest idol and they are friends, even sharing one of their main composers, Igor Krutoy. Until the next time. Adieu.
Hello, merci pour ton analyse parfaite de cette chanson. Tu ne sera jamais déçu par lara et toute lez chansons que tu écoutera sera toujours très émouvante car lara est très expressive et retransmet l'émotion comme personne peu la retransmettre. Éric sicard dans son commentaire ta laisser plein de lien à réagir et toute les chansons faut que tu les écoute.
This song was written in San-Francisco , went she new her let's say boyfriend , had cheated on her .She told us that in the last concert in Montreal in 2022 .
Thankyou for your lovely reaction to this beautiful song. I would love for you to react to more Lara Fabien. How about Adagio, one that Dimash has covered x
And she was a voice coach also for another program: Star Academy, in both countries. She will also be a coach in an upcoming program in France with kids, being released end of this year. She is indeed outstqnding both from a vocal skills or emotional and storytelling coaching point of view.
Love your comments. It's deep and heavy. I think you should talk about betrails and how to handle long term loneliness that some people face after divorce/break ups
That was a nice reaction video! You asked for suggestions for more Lara Fabian songs. Well, there are loads from the From Lara With Love concert. All very good. I think you should do a reaction to "Je suis malade" from that concert. When you did that, I think you should also do a reaction to the same song, but now from the 2003 concert. Here's a link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZaimSByycsU.html You'll be amazed about the difference!
I admire, for sure, the optimistic state of mind of most of US people. But it seems to me that it's like a castle built on the sand. You can be broked. That's the way life is and you have to do with it. Singing it may be a way.
