REACTION | Lara Fabian - Je Suis Malade | I didn't expect I was going to get emotional 

I can’t say how many reaction videos of this song I have watched, but to me this was the best. No crying, no overreacting, just quietly in awe of what he just saw and without a word playing again as if trying to realize what he just watched. Lara “The Ring” is mesmerizing and truly captivating in her performances!

“Je suis Malade” 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 compose 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, but a few months after, Dalida covered it and brought it to fame. 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. They became good friends. Lara has made some subtle changes to the song that gave it even more power and Serge Lama adopted these in his later interpretations. This 1999 version ("From Lara with Love" Concert in Montreal) is legendary internationally and has attracted many artists to do a cover, even from non french-speaking countries. The most recent one I am aware of is from the Korean band Forestella.

Love ❤️ your reaction to Lara Fabian. She sings with full emotion and passion. I cried when I listened to this song singing by her. She wore her heart out on her sleeves. Thank you for the great reaction. Greetings from VIETNAM 🇻🇳.

This performance, along with her rendition of Caruso (around the same time) are my favorite performances of all time. So emotional and perfect in every way.

What an amazing reaction you need to see Caruso is another wonderful performance by Lara Fabian, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

Eso es lo que se llama, una clase magistral de canto, hizo de todo en una sola pieza, Lara es fenomenal, no ha adjetivos para calificar tanto talento.

Стойкости Ларе Фабиан и сил ! Она стойкая женщина и очень сильная женщина !

Masterclass! Grande Lara. Te amamos! Éres unica. Gracias por reaccionarla. Ella es una diva.

Hola! It's her talent, man. She has this ability no one else has. And it's not even her own song. She can relate to those lyrics so well that she is clearly living it while she sings it. And what a way to express all that, you have no choice but to be sucked deep with her in to the story. And her vocals in this story telling, just insane. There has never been, and never gonna be again, artist like Lara. She is just absolute perfection. And this is one example of that artistry. 😎

Thank you so much for reacting in such a sensitive and heartfelt way to this incredible piece of art by Lara. I have seen numerous reactions to this performance, and yours is one of the best. Your facial expression, stunned respectful silence and the need to see it again, says so much about you as a person. I am proud to be one of your subscribers. Eric is a great resource of information about Lara and her songs so please be guided by his knowledge. I so look forward to more Lara reactions from you, and may I suggest you seek out some of her songs in Spanish. She is fluent in your language, and understanding the lyrics adds a dimension you don't get from reading captions.

Impactante!!!

Lara es una gran intérprete. Como dijo Eric, ella se apropió de la canción y la hizo suya con la bendición de Serge Lama, el verdadero intérprete de esta canción. Vi 2 o 3 reactores en YT que no reaccionaron a esta canción y la interpretación de Lara. Me digo a mí mismo que algunos no tienen el alma para permanecer insensibles a esta obra maestra musical. La mayoría quedan atónitos y, a veces, aturdidos después de escucharlo y verlo, ya que su actuación es magistral. Ella es la reina de las emociones. Espero que continúen descubriendo a este magnífico artista. Tiene más de treinta años de carrera y siempre está en lo más alto. Acaba de retomar una gira por sus 52 años....

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Joder que letra que canción y que artistaza.

Ni una palabra antes de escuchar dos veces toda la cancion ! Que reaccion tan adecuada !

She gave everything

I admire your reaction to this particular song. Yes, I fully agree with your thoughts. ♥️👏👏♥️

Hola a todos ...!!!! querido, ella es espectacular, en la hermosa línea de sus canciones e interpretaciones te sugiero, Perdere L amore y Broken vow....y todas las demás, su voz es encandoramente cautivante......gracias por reaccionar a ella y a Dimash.....cariños desde Chile....

Δεν υπάρχουν λόγια ακόμα και στην πλούσια γλώσσα της χώρας μου, την Ελλάδα, να αποδώσει κανείς τι αισθάνεται όταν η μαγεία τής ερμηνείας της λαρα τον συνεπαίρνει. Είναι η καλύτερη ερμηνεύτρια στον κόσμο.

I will post in a few seconds another comment with the story of the creation of Je suis malade. This is not her song, this is a cover. But Lara only sings songs that she can connect to or relate to in some way. She stopped singing some of her most famous hits (eg "Tout") just because she lost this connection and she doesn't want to fake it. For some of her other hits, she reinvented in her head the meaning of the song and found another way to connect to it. With Je suis malade, she didn't have to do it, she has always found the same connection throughout her career: she sang it no later than last week in some concerts. She told once that she puts in this song all the frustrations and negative emotions she has had in her life (and she went through quite a lot of bad experience before reaching some serenity now). Apparently this acts as some catharsis for her. And she is totally immersed into it. I was impressed by your feelings, your silence ... said it all. I could feel you were impacted. Lara had the same impact on me and many others when hearing this song. In fact, she has a unique way to connect to your soul intimately, and channel the emotions directly there, bypassing all filters. I think this is due to her way of performing a song: she lives it, she has this unique capability to switch between speaking and singing, to ride that fine line between crying and singing, her phrasing is so perfect, the use of her breath, her subtle transition between chest, mix and head voices, her intense stare at the audience, all this combined creates this connection. The rule with her is Always react to her live performances: she feeds herself from connecting with others, her music videos are not at the same level 99% of the time. You won a new subscriber. Muchas Gracias !

Thanks for reacting to Lara Fbian Love your reactions to Lara ❤ Love Lara ❤ Love from Denmark ❤

Serge Lama, el autor, vivió la historia. Escribió la letra; había perdido a la chica que amaba. Ella se casaba con otro. Pasados unos años, la chica se separa y Serge la recupera. Viven juntos hasta la muerte de ella hace unos pocos años...

Que bueno que estas descubriendo a esta reina, lo que es ella, Monica Naranjo y Dimash son artistas que los termino de escuchar y me dejan privada por unos segundos ,apesar que los e escuchado sientos de beces aun me sorprenden y me hemosionan a monica naranjo la conozco desde hace 25 años a Lara Fabian hace 22 años y dimash tengo muy poco apenas voy para 4 años , recientemente descubrí también a Diana Ankudinova por recomendación del propio Dimash y es también una revelación pese a ser tan jovencita creo que tanto Dimash como Diana son dos grandes promesas y recien comiensan a crear su historia

Wow 🥰 beautiful reaction 😍 liked subscribed

Buenisimo!!!!, escucha Je'taime, donde es el público el que canta y ella se emociona y no sabe que hacer, es espectacular ese momento, 💋💋❤❤🇦🇷

Ella.ademas de tener una hermosa voz,interpreta es muy buena interprete .......

Great reaction! I felt the same way.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hombre, escucha "caruso" en vivo, con las letras para entender el sentido de esta cancion sobre el fin de vida de este tenor italiano en Napoli. Y despues, checkea "je t'aime" en vivo. El publico le canta la cancion sabiendo q estaba pasando por malos momentos en su vida ;)

Awesome!

Très bon choix mon ami!!Besos de francia !

Extraordinariamente expresiva!

Alguna vez nos sentimos así...la decepción amorosa te destruye 😢 Así me sentía cuando me separé de mí esposo Yo tomaba pastillas para dormir ,no quería despertar Ella lo canta así con ese dolor cuando terminó con su novio

"Lara reached the depth of my soul". AMEN brother👏 And you're very smart to have lyrics/subs on, ESPECIALLY with Lara and especially when she sings in other languages than English. This 'Je Suis Malade' performance truly is one the greatest performances of any song ever. Another BEAUTY is 'Caruso' from the same 'From Lara With Love' concert. Again remember suns for the beautiful story. Check out Macadamia's YT channel. He has the videos in HQ and with several subs.

I love your reaction to this in particular and I love your reactions generally. You let the song speak to you and that is so rare and completely as it should be so thank you. It is a song she cannot leave alone she varies it over the years. She's a truly great actress and I don't know how else to say that and you were correct she did not know where she was she was in shock she let the song take her. Thank you for this moment thank you for bringing this my day has been without beauty and depth and this gave me that so thank you

what a lovely reaction.. to much expressive and sincere, coming from heart, it's so touching .. the best reaction for this song! 🤩

Esa canción me encanta pero en vivo y como lo interpreta me matas 🖤🖤

Aquí un fan de Mónica gracias a ella empecé a ver también a Lara otra Gigante Súper Estrella y esta Magistral interpretación

Lara is a very beautiful voice .Good reaction .Thanks

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

GRANDISIMA REACCIÓN...SINTIENDOLA, EMOCIONANDOSE Y COMO SE HACE ESTO....EN SILENCIO Y SIN CORTARLA...GRANDE TÍO...

Great singer, charismatic performer, and the art that conceals art. She's a wonderful singing actor, who treads a highwire of emotion, as if she is telling you her story for the first time; but she is never overwhelmed, she never loses control of her breath, nor stumbles over her words. That's not to say she doesn't feel the song, or hasn't experienced some situations in her own life that she draws on; but what she has in abundance, I believe, is imagination and empathy.

Llevo semanas esperando tu próxima reacción a Lara Fabian. Por favor. No veo la hora.

You were transfixed. I love it.

Soy de Zaragoza España pero el idioma francés me gusta muchísimo para la musica .Gracias por esta reacción

Yo soy francés y siento cada una de sus palabras. No traduciria "je suis malade" por "estoy enferma" porque no se habla de salud fisica perso si de salud mental. Yo diria mejor "me vuelvo loca" . Una otra cancion famosa y potente es "Requiem pour un fou" cantada por lara fabian y johnny halliday. Saludos desde Paris

La he escuchado ya de mucho tiempo , y cada vez me sigue sorprendiendo. Ella es Extraordinaria , única es como si se desdoblase y fuera a otra esfera real y , desde allí cuenta su historia o la tuya , o quizás la mía . De una forma casi presencial . Pero una interpretación así dejas de hacer , por verla a ella .💞💕💓

Excelente reacción, saludos desde Argentina 😍

The level it touches and beyond it’s indescribable

Excelente reacción. Yo cuando la escuché hace poco, me quedé impactada. Un saludo desde Granada, España. 🇪🇦🌷

De las mejores cantantes, intérpretes de la historia

Lara Fabian could move mountains with the power of her personality! I have often wondered, if it's necessary to experience personally all the hardships in life, to become an artist of her caliber. Isn't there an easier way? Can a person who hasn't gone through a lot convey deep emotions like she does? What do you think? Thank you for a great reaction!

Solamente los verdaderos reactores pueden mirar 2 veves seguidas esta interpretacion! Bravo à ti!

Primer vez en tu canal. Me gustó! Congratulaciones por tu trabajo. Soy enamorado de esta cantante, maravillosa! Esta es mi canción favorita pero sugiero que escuches Love by Grace, tan hermosa cuanto las demás de este trabajo de Lara. Abrazos desde Brasil, cariño. Es muy hermoso!

I am from Portugal,so if you do not mind I will write the rest in Portuguese.. Todas as reacções aos videos da Lara deviam ser como os teus. Escutar a musica toda e reagir depois, só assim é possivel ver o impacto da Lara nas pessoas..Obrigado. Já subscrevi o canal.

Yo tengo muchos años que descubrí su música y me cautivo, hasta la fecha escucho su música aún que no es mi época. Te recomiendo que reacciónes a sus canciones: Llora ( español) Broken vow ( inglés) Gracias x reacciónar a su música yo cada vez que la escucho lloro jajaja saludos desde México me suscribo por ella y tú honesta reacción ❤️🤟.

You have impeccable taste my brother I appreciate you! The greatest female voice on planet Earth is Laura Fabian. The greatest male voice on planet Earth is David Phelps. His most popular viewed videos will do you right! Again I appreciate your brother. Until next time stay well. And thank you for respecting the viewer and stopping it only when necessary. You were awesome

Podrías reaccionar a Caruso interpretada por Lara?

The spanish translation is in some parts of the song not correctly done, using some words that doesn't fit to the feelings Lara is transmitting.

Watch broken vow , a sing written by her

Like Eric Sicard wrote, Lara didn't write this. Lara is however a very good performer. She can act as well. At the start of the song, when the piano plays, you can see her getting in to the character that will sing the song, or tell the story. After she finished the song you can see her needing a minute to get rid of the character she played and be herself again. Now you've seen this version of the song from 2001, you really should react to a live version from two years later. When a singer has to perform the same song in every show it helps - to prevent it becoming boring to the singer - to re-invent the song a bit ... here's a link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BI6ysCN4CY0.html

Please react to perdere l'amore

Hola Amigo, aquí te dejo otra canción de esta extraordinaria cantante, y détente a ver la cara de ella al comienzo de la canción. Lara Fabian - Je t'aime - Live in Paris, 2001 - HQ || Emotional Performance ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IYnFwUbC9A8.html Saludos.-

Understand why biggest fan are dimash and Barbra Streisand………

8:05 So many of the video versions of this performance that make use of translated lyrics from the French - make this same dumb mistake. To wit: It's _NOT_ "like a rock" and "like a sin", rather, it's 'like *TO* a rock' and 'like TO a sin' , "I cling to you" Esp.("estoy aferrada a ti") Fr.("Je suis accroché à toi) as one would *'cling' TO* a bad habit/sin because they are unable to break it(their dependency) or to a large rock/boulder that they for some reason might find themselves scaling/climbing holding on for fear of falling

Лара Фабиан Бельгия Франция! Лара пережила смерть своего мужа Лемаршаля и смерть Своего лучшего друга Дмитрия Александровича Хворостовского Лучшего баритона Оперной сцены !

A tradução é ma.

La cancion se apropio de Lara...❤

Te lo parte todo por dentro no se como calificarlo no encuentro las palabras

Mylene Farmer stade de France ainsi soit je Manifico

Saludos, mi amigo...Me encanta que sigas reaccionando a la Diosa Lara Fabian....Te recomiendo que cuando tengas un chance, reacciones a esta increíble interpretación de Lara.... Sólo 2 personas son capaces de cantar esta canción EN VIVO con semejante calidad: La primera es la cantante original de esta canción, nada más y nada menos que la gran Barbra Streisand...Y la segunda, por supuesto la Diosa Lara, quien es una fan a morir de Barbra Streisand... Espectacular!!...Es un Medley de la película "Yentl" protagonizada por Barbra y en el Lara interpreta "Papa Can You Hear Me" y "A Piece of Sky"....Te dejo el link....ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zW8lalHMwxk.html

no te sientes identificado porque no eres mujer, existen muchas mujeres q estan enfermas cuando deciden tener u n mal amor y te enfermas y aunq te hace daño sigues con el. es un jejemplo a ver si reaccionan algunas mujeres q esten pasando lo mismo. cuanta infelicidad y tristeza expresa su alma. hay un lunk donde lo canta una niñita tambien interpreta muy lindo para ser niña. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q-YhC_o3G1M.html

Terrible interpretación de Lara !¡!
