Singer First Time Reaction- Dimash | Daididau. Cultural & Touching Masterpiece! (Subs:8 languages) 

You've become my favorite of those who does reactions. And one of only, I think, like 3 (or probably even 2) of them that I actually subscribed to. Thanks for taking the time to combine all the videos, for kind and thoughtful words and sharing things about yourself as well. It's so nice that you're already sharing his music with others too. And yeah, "вот это да" haha :D Great that you've also learned some Russian along with it! Так держать :)

I've been lucky enough to see him live. He is totally incredible and is the best vocalist i've ever heard and ever likely to hear.

He was very emotional during Daididau as it was his first big concert, and at home, after The Singer competition. To see somebody cry from pure emotion is a beautiful thing. He is just the most wonderful young man. Us Dears are an emotional and totally biased lot, as you might have noticed. Thank you for a lovely reaction and I am so glad to have found you as you are an experienced singer and know your stuff.

Интересно наблюдать за лицами реакционеров: охают, ахают, нервно смеются, плачут... По Вашему лицу и складке между бровями видно, как глубоко Вы проживаете каждую песню Димаша. А каждая его песня - это маленькая жизнь! Спасибо!

Unfortunately you missed the Story behind "Daididau" on the Gloria Wu channel as you stopped the video too soon. I suggest you rewatch the whole of Gloria Wu's version as he was NOT sick on this occasion. He was Sick when he sang 'Daybreak" on the Singer series. I suggest when you react to "Daybreak" that you do the whole Gloria Wu channel version with back-story, then immediately watch his Bastau concert version which is Out Of This World! Just listen to us and we'll help you understand these classic performances by the world's greatest singer/artist/performer. Believe it or not, you've only seen about 10% of what Dimash can do. 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

Для нашего народа звук домбры в начале это тысячи скачущих лошадей по свободной и бескрайней степи.

The whole Bastau concert was extremely emotional for Dimash. It was his first major solo concert. It was in his home country and he had managed to get many people from different countries to visit his country. This made several big dreams come true for him. This song and the fact that the audience sang with him even made him cry in the end. Carrying the culture of his country into the world has been one of his dreams. The concert in the USA was another moment when dreams of him came true and he was also very emotional. I think it's great that he can show feelings on stage, not just with his singing.

He usually takes the left in-ear out. There must have been a sound problem because when he took the right out he tapped on it. The sweating is not from playing the dombra. It's the middle of a 3 hour concert. He always sweats a lot.

Ahhhh, first on my "to do" list, this morning...a dose of "Vitamin D"! Aren't we fortunate to live in the time of this young genius's rise in the world, and healing influence on humanity? Josh, welcome to those who have been "Dimashified"! Really appreciating your commentaries.

Thank you very much! Спасибо за то, что держите обратную связь - это очень приятно! Эту песню Димаш поёт в рамках шоу Арнау. Исполнял её и в Нью-Йорке, Москве. Но это исполнение - особенное! Берегите себя! Здоровья и успехов ❤️🇰🇿

Josh, we knew you were a Dear even before you declared. You radiate it. That you take the time and exude the thoughtfulness and appreciation for this extraordinary vocal master in your reactions, that you display a sensation of calmness and warmth after each hearing, is confirmation that you have joined the church of Dimash.

He is sharing the heritage and history of Kazakhstan to everyone across different countries. And he is very proud of this. I'm really glad that more Americans have come to know Dimash like you. Thank you 🙏 🙏 🙏

Как всегда моё самое любимая песня,как и все остальные.спасибо вам было очень интересно.

It was so huge for him he was crying when ending the song.. but I was crying when he was singing the ukrain folksong "marigold". And you can see his mom crying, it is not often she says.. The song is about our moms 💔 honorsong.

Гениальное исполнение! Димаш Гений!

I kind of wished that people would have told you to do a double reaction. Kind of makes me sad that you missed the Singer version of this song. I hope you go and at least watch it on your own. Daididau is special to the Kazakh people because not only has it reached folk status but it involves the history of their country. Kazakhstan has only been an independent country for about 28 years. Before that, they were under Soviet Union. So there were times of great struggle and war, famine, persecution and pain there. This song specifically was written by a Kazakh poet and teacher, Magzhan Zhumabayev, who was imprisoned in 1918 for being a supporter of freedom and independence of Kazakhstan. After being imprisoned for a year, he worked for a decade as a poet and teacher and translate of text books into Kazakh. In 1929, he was falsely arrested again as a member of "anti-Soviet Nationalist organization" and a Japanese spy. He pled not guilty. He was imprisoned and sentenced to 10 years. His wife, Zuleyka, traveled to Moscow to be near him. She followed him from prison to prison as they were constantly moving him without notice. Sometimes she would have to search for where they took him and when she found him he'd be bloody from the beatings . During this time he had been told a lie that his wife had left him for another man. Possible that this was part of the demoralization and beatings that he was experiencing. Devastated, he wrote a letter, or a poem if you will, to his wife asking how could she leave him and who now would hear his sorrow. This poem was turned into the song Daididau that we know today. The name Daididau was an affectionate name that he would often call his wife. Ultimately Zuleyka petitioned some of his literary friends to help and they were able to get him released early in 1936, but a year later he was arrested again. This time he was killed in custody and the location of his burial remains unknown. The Historical significance of this story to Kazakhstan and ultimately to Dimash is not only the story of the struggle for the freedom of Kazakh people and unfair persecution. It is also about repression of art and the erasure of a significant Kazakh individual and artist through Soviet oppression. Magzhan's writings were banned for over 50 years and his name was virtually unknown to even the Kazakh people. Many of his works and writings have been lost forever. It wasn't until 1989 when Kazakhstan was moving toward independence that they re-discovered him and realized his tragic persecution and the profound beauty of his poetry. So, Dimash having learned all of this history and being a young patriot, knew at age 15 that he wanted to bring this song Daididau to the world. The world would hear this mans words and his art wouldn't be forgotten anymore. Daididau represents years of struggle under foreign oppression and it now represents the struggle for freedom. It became a national folk song handed down from grandfather to grandson and for years the name of the author withheld. The song represents the heart, the artistry, the past persecution, and the new found freedom of a nation. Dimash's dream was to not only sing song to his whole nation but also to the world. And most specifically, he dreamed since he was 15 years old of singing Daididau in America in large concert in New York. That dream came true for him last December and it was the most beautiful thing to witness. Sorry so long but I wanted you to know the significance to the song. thank you for your reaction to it!

Breathtaking masterpiece performance ❣️❣️❣️❣️

You missed a very important part of the backstory, where is talks about the person this song is about. You should watch a bit more of Gloria Wu's video.

Another great reaction Josh (love the channel name change)! This is such a beautiful song and this is an emotional performance. I was at his NY concert in Dec and when he sang this song we all sang with him at the end ... he was overwhelmed with emotion ... he said it was his dream to sing this song with fans from around the world on a NY stage ... the exchange of love in that stadium was palpable ... the most incredible e experience I've ever had. And Di's voice live ... thousands times more amazing than you can hear on the internet. Such pure golden sound like fire! So enjoying your Dimash journey with you Josh! ♥️ As Dears have mentioned ... a double reaction to DAYBREAK would be awesome ... the first one from Singer when he was sick (which is still beautiful) and the second from Bastau concert, which is one of his most phenomenal performances! To see the difference is mind blowing! 😎

Спасибо за реакцию и за русские субтитры...Димаш, конечно, феноменален... Он возвращает нам истинную музыку, которую мир, похоже,давно забыл... А те, кто любит настоящую, слушают старые вещи 70-80х годов...Я очень хочу увидеть вашу реакцию на "Passione"... Это практически мини - опера... Она очень интересна... Думаю. что вы будете вновь удивлены...

Dimash had been singing and dancing for over 30 mins of the concert before he sang this and continued for over 2 hours for the full concert

This was in Kazakhstan, where everybody knows this song, but can you imagine that the same thing was in New York concert? And the crowd was singing this song in kazakh language))

Of course you're a Dear! We all knew that! 😂 And it's fun to introduce Dimash to people, as Dears, we want Dimash to be known throughout the world. Dimash is a world star, it's only a matter of time. He's going to take over the planet! ♡♡♡ Daididau is very emotional and very personal to him. When I watch this particular performance, it's like watching an Olympian receiving his gold medal. Even if you're not from that country, you end up teary eyed for that winner. Dimash has single handedly introduced Kazakhstan to the world. ♡ Dimash channels a lot of his idols. You can see it in a lot of his performances. The 2 obvious ones are definitely MJ and Mercury. His engagement with the crowd is another thing that you will see more of when you complete the singer series. When I saw him in NYC last winter, the whole stadium sang in Mandarin, Russian, Kazakh, & English for him! It was a magical, magical evening! ♡

All the dears try to sing this song with him at his concerts. The USA dears sang the song for his birthday this year. Beautiful 🇺🇸🇰🇿

Reason why Dimash was a little out of breath (and a bit sweaty) was because he had been singing/dancing with his other songs prior to this number - and this was about a third of the way into the several hours long concert.

Spectacular but sad Kazakh song with 100 dombra players & Dimash leading the group. Dimash is such an incredible multi-talented artist with the most magnificent incomparable voice of all time. I believe his dad Kanat wrote the lyrics & dad’s friend composed the music. Dimash of course sings it with so much emotion flawlessly & beautifully. He is the greatest singer of all time. Thank you Josh for your great reactions to Dimash. 🤗😍❤️🥰🇨🇦

You didn't get the back story as you stopped the video too soon and missed it, I really thought you were also going to cut off the end of the performance too, you need too wait for him to finish as he often pauses before the end. Plus you can miss things if you are not patient. He wasn't sick in the singer version, that was Daybreak which you really, really have to watch from his Bastau concert. His concert versions are always incredible, Bastau concert was huge, 40,000 people I believe. It was the biggest and best concert Kazakhstan has ever had, until his 2019 Arnau concert. Dimash sang for over 3 hours solo in his concert and this was in the middle of it in a very hot Kazakh summer, so he sweats a lot. His had a problem with his in ear on this occasion, but he often removes his left one. He was so proud to have performed this song with words that mean so much to his country that he cried at the end. We live him so much for his openess with his emotions. He is just awesome ❤

You just have to listen to "love of tired swan", "ogni pietra" and "your love". You cant miss theese!!!

It is always very gratifying to her an intelligent and well spoken person discuss a loved topic. Thank you for your rection. I just wanted to point out a few things. Dimash's in-ear peace was not working and he sung without it the whole time, infront of 35 000-40 000 people. If you take another look, you will see him indicating to his crew by tapping on the piece at the beginning of the song. And this was a very special and rather emotional performance for him, since singing this song infront of a huge audience was one of his dreams. Now Dears from around the the world sing this song in Qazaqsha (or Kazakh). Greetings from Bulgaria.

Also, Dimash idol is Michael Jackson 🤗

Till today this one is still my favorite performance of Daididau, first reason was hearing a kazakh tradicional music played by 101 dombras, second reason the fulfilment of one of his dreams , that the world would recognise and sing a Kazakh song. His hard time on not showing his great emotions at that particular moment always get me. Love your reactions, please all of you keep safe. Regards from Portugal. 💞💞

Thanks for your reaction, Dimash is my favorite singer, I watch him everyday.

Спасибо , дорогой, что именно эту песню выбрал для обзора!!!!!!!🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿 Рахмет!!!!!

Hi Josh, some background story to Daididau: a man was put in prison and to further torment him, he is told that his beloved one has someone else. Though it is not true, he suffers a lot and writes down his feelings " to whom shall I turn to with my pain....?" ... in the 1930ieth, under an oppressive regime, a Kazakh poet was jailed and actually condemned to death... he had written a poem to this end...... I hope I got it all right, but there are 'story behind' videos available. Cheers from Vienna

The best singer in the World #PrinceDimash #TheBest #STAR

This song and his performance are of an indescribable beauty

Please react dimash (Daybreak) bastau ❤️

Привет из Казахстана! Очень приятно было видеть вашу реакцию на песни Димаш! Голос Димаша это , как инструмент звонкий, как горный хрусталь! Его ангельский голос, хочется слушать бесконечно! Спасибо вам огромное, за вашу искреннюю реакцию, удачи вам!

SÚPER FABULOSO!!!... 👏👏👏❤❤❤

His dream is to introduce our culture to the world. Because many people do not know how rich our culture and history is. Our Dombra is an instrument which speaks without any words. Every house has it. Here our people presented in China. He is crying that he achieved his aim. The song is also tells the history

The moment you start to feel the desire to shout out loud how wonderful Dimash is, how you want to get others to know him, how you want to listen and watch all his performances, and you are looking for every interview he ever gave, you are a dear. But I think you already are a dear and you will find yourself doing all these things soon enough. Welcome to the club ! One of Di’s biggest idols and inspiration is Michael Jackson. You will also notice that in future vids.... Love from Belgium !

Maravilloso!! Gracias

You would be surprised to hear Dimash sing sick but it was not this song he was sick it was Daybreak and there is a video showing him making a trip to the doctor and the doctor telling him no high notes. He preformed anyway and he makes the listener forget he is sick. He is so dedicated to his Dears. You wouldn't know it if you hadn't been told. Thank you for the volume adjustment. Dimash has already been to the US twice I think or maybe 3 times. Don't bother listening to him on the show here in the states it was horrible. They chopped up his songs and were very disrespectful to him. And hello from Southeast Texas.

Wasn’t that just the best ever?? I ❤ Dimash so much! I can’t wait for him to come back to North America! I will be there! 🙏 🇨🇦

It was Daybreak where he was sick,you need to see that song in his Bastau concert. Thank you😉 He is the best vocalist of the world! A dear from Belgium😉

👍👀👍

That was very nice of you telling other people about Dimash.He deserves more and more.Thank you for your professional comments.

Daybreak from Bastau Concert...✨❤️ Thank you!💕🤗

Bienvenido al mundo Dimash,ja ja.Dear Susana desde Argentina

When he performed Daididau, in the singer he was not sick, when he was sick of his throat was when he sang Daybreak!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I really liked how you mixed the videos, took interesting parts from each one. When you get to Daybreak I would suggest you do something similar. The version on the Singer show is very touching, both with the story behind the song and the fact that Dimash got quite sick just before he had to perform. But his performance of Daybreak at his Bastau concert is in my opinion one of his best. He is just perfect there. So please watch both... just to see the difference between Dimash singing at less then great conditions versus when he is in top form. (Most can't tell he is sick when they just listen to the Singer versio of Daybreak, but it is clear when comparing with the Bastau version.)

Thanks for your nice reaction from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 !

He was younger, much thinner. It is impressive how much he has matured physically and professionally in just 4 years. It is beautiful, for me a mixture of the beauty of Elvis, the angel of Michael and the scene of Mercury. by the way he admires all of them.

Thank you so much for your humbleness, love, and passion sharing music/artists and especially Dimash with the world. Blessings!

If you want to see all of Dimash's range, react to Unforgettable Day at Gakku concert. This man can hit a sustained D8 note. I ultra-strongly recommend this. You haven't heard ANYTHING until you hear his D8 whistle.

Thank you very much💯👍

You missed the whole history of Kazakhstan and backstory of the song from Gloria With, as you switched the video too soon. The performance is from his solo concert in capital city of Kazakhstan, the concert was of 3 hrs and this song was performed half way through.

Очень приятно вас смотреть и слушать, спасибо большое!

Thank you for your reaction, Dimash is incredible, I been a dear for almost two years now, I watch reactions I listen to the same song over and over and I still get goosebumps every time. On 12/10/2019 he had a concert in NY, there were about 19,000 thousand people at the Barclays center from some 56 countries and from most of the states, he got all of us singing Daididau, it was his dream, to sing this song an a big stadium here in USA and we were all part of it, as he said dream come true, he is a phenomenon, I’m amazed by him and happy to be here to follow his journey...thank you again.

Daididau is one of my favorite songs and every time I see Dimash singing with that emotion I get emotional too, it gives me chills, goosebumps and my heart beats faster. Something I can’t explain ... he is magic 💙✨

MARAVILLOSO

Dimash himself is a work of art. A masterpiece. How fortunate we are to have him. Those who have seen him live are blessed for sure. Living on the west coast of the USA I have not been so fortunate to see him live. It's is on my bucket list. Thank you for your response and commentary. We Dears never tire of hearing him.

That concert had an attendance of 40,000 people. It was his first concert at his triumphant return from the Singer. It was also his very first solo concert. Sorry, I think you misunderstood about Daididau; It is for the performance of « Daybreak » that Dimash was sick. When you are ready to do that one, you should watch the whole of it on Gloria Wu’s channel, then the whole Bastau Daybreak performance. It makes a little longer video, but all the dears do not mind having longer of Dimash!!! You will notice the difference, and the Bastau version of Daybreak is phenomenal. I am still glad you saw the Bastau version of Daididau because it is glorious! I was also at his NY concert and this song was super emotional for Dimash, he was telling us how, since he was a little boy, he wanted to bring songs of his country to America, and that night, his dream came through; he had all of us singing the chorus with him over and over, the whole stadium. It was magical! Here is a link to that performance, for your private listening; it is a little hard to understand what he says, but I gave you the jist of it; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Eb2ijQSi79c.html I love your reactions! And thank you for finding us a new dear!!

hey Josh sadly you missed the true story behind the song in Gloria's channel. You cut to second video too soon. Try and watch it and you will understand his passion better.

Респектабельный реакционер😊👍

Hello, my dear (that's what Dimash calls his fans), I'm Brazilian and we already had some excellent composers and singers, these are no longer played, the media now only play funk and mediocre singers who use their ass and sex to make it successful . There are people (singers) who bring out the worst in us. Now there is Dimash that awakens the best in us, our sensitivity, admiration and reverence for what is beautiful. For these are the virtues that exist in him, moral values and love for the family, love for the country, which he honors and dignifies. They make us want to hear it over and over and over again !!!. In an interview at the age of twelve he said that when he grew up he wanted to be a dignified man and make a contribution to his country. That's what he does now with all his talent and love of music.

Спасибо!

💜 .... when one dream begin come be true... from this magic life-tree... (backraund picture) .... he is an real prince of Kazakhstan ... Wonderfull dream, wonderfull human, wonderfull music, wonderfull knowing, ... (I see Lois Amstromg's eyes... ) what a wonderfull world, how wonderfull the life... Im happy 😍🌍🎶💜

Josh, after reacting to his super emotional performance of Daididau to a huge international crowd, it'd be awesome if you listened to another Kazakh folk song called Samaltau which he recorded recently in his home studio with just two musicians behind him but the impact you're gonna experience should be just as strong. Dimash is a big patriot of his country and he presents his native culture with great reverence. Yes, you've chosen the exact word to describe it. Looking forward to your next reaction.

Thanks for spreading Dimash'e magic ....his YT channel is growing very slowly , but it is growing , and that is what counts.. Love your video and comments to it.....You should have played Gloria Wu's video bit longer to get the real story behind this song....

уй жаны со Аумин🙏🏻

You're awesome and a dear. Thank you for your Dimash reactions. All the best to you and your family.

Dimash es único en el mundo ❤️

Hi! Dimash is a fan of everyone they name and Michael Jackson, Lara Fabián and many highly respected Kazakh musicians. He has that incredible mastery because he studied from preschool to graduating from his country's University of Arts. He trains every day and before the age of 20 he practiced swimming (he is able to cross the pool underwater without many problems) in addition to Tae Kuon Do. He is very disciplined and that talent of his, that angel, that warmth, his physical and personal beauty made him a prodigy of a man. I call it "Hurricane Dimash" because it is unstoppable and I always say "Long live the new King" From Chile, Welcome to the world of Dimash "Dear"!

Ich empfehle ihnen ganzes Bastau Konzert anzusehen. Jedes Lied ein Meisterwerk, 3 Std.pure Dimasch Feuerwerk🎆🎆🎆 ...und so viele Überraschungen. Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪

I totally think that he suddenly noticed there is a problem with the headphones at the beginning of the show! But he still performed super well as usual!!!

Dimash 🇰🇿💙

👏🤩toujours aussi magique!!💖🎶🗼🇫🇷

Loved your reaction and how thorough you were in the introduction, the analysis and your conclusion. We are so proud to be Dimash's dears. A once-in-a-generation singer, or in a century and we are so privileged to be part of his incredible journey.

Amazing reaction. Thank you. ❤️🇧🇷

It’s really nice that Dimash include and showcase Kazakh culture in his concert. I can’t wait for his next concert in the US.

Go back and see the back story to this song your appreciation will hit the roof - always check the full back story not cut it short

👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩

100 people in the group 🤔 Beautiful song ❤️👌 Waiting for your next Dimash reaction 😊 Nice reaction, TY

You really take your time, look and read background story’s and that’s so respectfull to this great youngh man called Dimash. He deserves all of that.

Thank you! Amazing reaccion. He deserves the best. He had been working so hard for it.

Dimash y Li Yugang son cantantes e intérpretes impresionantes y espectaculares, que voces tan increíbles con registros muy amplios, Dimash y Li Yugang son alienígenas son como de otro planeta, escucha Diva dance con ellos dos es una muestra de lo que le digo...

This is such a beautiful and sad song. His father wasn't sure about putting this story to music, but then Dimash played it for him, and now it's a staple at all concerts! He will always involve fans in singing, no matter where. He's so humbled by the fact that people from all over are learning and loving his culture and homeland. Dears have all learned this phonetically. His breath control is amazing! He will swim underwater the length of the pool to build on it.

He is such a fantastic artist. Greetings from Uruguay.

Thank you very much for reacting to Daididau. It really is a beautiful song! I'm glad you liked it!!

Wasn’t this a beautiful song? Dimash never disappoints. I appreciate your thoughtful and considered reactions to Dimash’s music. Looking forward to following your discovery of his journey. Cheers from California.

It was very traditional song. Very old and instruments are from ancient times and his clothing. Many Dears start calling him Kazakh Prince after this performance 😁

His performance in NY of this song was very moving, not just to his audience, but to him as so many had memorized the words to this song. He has said he does not show emotions because he is a man, and that is not proper in his society, however He was openly crying in that performance and would bow his head to keep others from seeing his tears.

Gracias por la traducción al español y por reaccionar a mi querido Dimash.. Saludos desde Chile 😍❤️❤️❤️🇨🇱

He wasn't sick and gave a great performance. It's just that the atmosphere at the Bastau concert was even more special and moving. Personally, I watch all of his performances, even of the same songs, because very time he presents them differently.

When you have time, go back and finish listening to Gloria Wu's version of Daididau. The back story of the song is explained and Dimash expresses his reasons for wanting so much to sing that song.

IT IS UNDERSTANDING WHAT HAPPENS HERE, THAT DYMASH FEELS, WHEN YOU KNOW THE DIMASH STORY AND THIS SONG. HIS FATHER AND UNCLE, AND HE AT 16 YEARS ARRANGED THIS SONG, WHICH IS ABOUT THE TIMES OF REPRESSION AND THE KAZAKH POET, BECAME A VICTIM OF THIS REPRESSION. SO HERE - DIMASH, WHEN BEING A CHILD THEN, SAID TO THE FATHER - I WILL DO EVERYTHING TO THIS SONG WITH ME IN KAZAKH IN THE BIGGEST STAGES OF THE WORLD! HERE'S DREAM OF LIFE COMES HERE !! (SEE ANOTHER CONCERT IN NEW YORK! THIS SONG)

💚💚💚

Dimash&Super vocal boys - ForeverQueen please.

Этот мальчик просто всю душу выворачивает своим исполнением! Полная отдача! Браво Димаш!!!👏👏👏❤
