Vocal Coach REACTS DAN VASC "Beauty and the Beast" (Disney Cover) Minniva 

He just dropped y Heart Will Go On! It is as epic as this. He never disappoints!

Thanks Ken for reacting to this video ^_^ Your compliments are greatly appriciated !

I love how Dan never overpowers his duet partner, although he easily could. Such a gentleman!!!!

Just played Dan's latest Metal Guys play "My Heart Will Go On" and it would have melted the friken iceberg. I love this beautiful duet with Minneva. Dan as always does a spectacular job.

Minniva suffered burnout for a while after they recorded this, she is back as strong and as gorgeous as ever.. I love the way she and Dan meld their voices, truly lovely... Oh and yes I caught the new video just as it dropped.. awesome comes to mind... no longer a tear jerker but a new metal anthem.. and no not a typo just pre-emptive is all.. Thank you Ken for your input enjoyed as per usual

Minniva really does have a gorgeous voice, in my opinion! And Dan being Dan. Beautiful piece! Thank you for your reaction.

Thank you for your reaction to this lovely duet. And yes when Dan unleashes the beast, we are sure to know, like in his video that just dropped. My heart will go on😊

Hey Ken Dan just dropped his new song and that is a must listen Always pleasure to see your reactions Hello from North Macedonia ✌️

Thank you for your reaction. Dan has done this on his channel before with Alina Lesnik (also sings metal). And "My Heart Will Go On" is Dantastic!

Thanks for your reaction Ken. This video was produced by Minniva so she had control over the music and editing. Yes, the music was a little too much over the voices, but still a beautiful rendition. I also think it was recorded several years ago, but not sure. Always a pleasure to hear your analysis. Looking forward to hearing your opinion on Dan's newest one. He certainly doesn't sing it like Celine Dion, as you can imagine.

Dan recorded his part of the song a couple of years ago and he didn’t mix this track. I enjoyed this cover but like you I thought the orchestration was a little bit overpowering. Their voices blended very well for the harmonies and Minniva has a beautiful voice. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and maybe you could comment on Dan’s new song which dropped about an hour ago. 🎶✨🌟✨🎶

Minniva sounds like the biblical city of Nineveh, according to her pronunciation in a question answer session on her website. She sings like a Disney Princess.

He "releases the beast" in his newest song. My oh my... Lovely reaction! ❤

She has such a beautiful and special voice and they sound so great together!

Love these two singers .

Dan has known Minniva for years from 2016 when he was the lead singer for Orion's Rein and Minima would be a guest singer. He is holding back because this is Minniva's channel and he is supporting her instead of taking the lead. I don't know how she pronounces her name and have heard reviewers say it at least 3 different ways.

Absolutely beautiful!

This is a great rendition of this song . Just as good as the original.

You may remember Minniva from her duet with Dan at Christmas time. They sang Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. She had dark hair then.

This dropped recently but was recorded two years ago. Afterwards Minniva was ill with burnout and just got around to editing it. (Both i’s in her name are short.)

Minniva and Dan were in a metal band called Orion’s Reign together for a couple years. She is Norwegian and she and Dan did a few Christmas duets together as well. Thank you Ken! Always enjoy your commentary!

Thanks for the reaction. They make a nice pair, and Dan always seems so relaxed and collegial in these virtual collaborations. I do agree about the mix, which Dan didn’t do. He didn’t do the editing either. Still a very lovely duet. I always enjoy your comments. (P.S. someday you might want to check out their Christmas songs with Orion’s Reign, such as Santa Claus Is Coming to Town. Cute, bouncy, with Dan doing a mini-medley of classical Christmas songs and also “rooty-toot-toot and rummy-tum-tum.” It’s a hoot, and lots of fun.)

Loved your reaction. Beautiful performance

Dan's always sensitively couteous in his duets. Even in their duet of Ghost Division, a Sabaton power metal song. She shows off her lower range in that one, if you're interested in hearing more.

Great Reaction to a great cover. Dan Vasc just dropped an Phenomenal cover today. I highly recommend it and turning up the volume.

Thanks for this reaction - I believe that Dan's portion was recorded possibly 3 years ago, based on the lighting he's using. He's done some other songs with Minniva, as well. They do blend well together. Since you mentioned Celine Dion, hoping for a reaction from you to his cover of "My Heart Will Go On" 🤞

Lindo o dueto ❤O DAN VASC espetacular incrível magnífico ❤❤❤ obrigada pela reação!

That was beautiful ❤ I feel like it was recorded not too recent though but I don't pretend to know lol thank you for reacting! I always enjoy your take on songs, you're very authentic and I appreciate that 🙏❤️

Love this❤... also crazy over new video She has a Beautiful voice... they work eell together❤ Thank you so much.... it IS awesome

My friend Dan just dropped a bombshell a new one my heart will go on from Titanic Mr Vasc does it again he has made the ground shake and the mountains crumble with this song it’s a must please and thank you this one is wonderful like the way you explained things

Great that you discovered Minniva. :D

*chefs kiss*

Yes, yes!! Please listen to Dan’s My Heart Will Go On.

Tks my dear ❤❤❤ Beauty Minniva and the best/beast my Dan 😊 . Perfect duo ❤

Great reaction. Minniva did the arrangement and useally is louder with the music, but she is awesome, as Dan always is. Oh, Dan's new song is out.

Great reaction Ken, this is a great version of this song.

Dan vasc has a new number ‼️‼️🤘🏼

I’ve been on the Dan Vasc journey for the past 2 Weeks. That’s when I discovered him I would like to suggest that you check out Voctave and 2 Country Singers try singing opera: Nesum Dorma.

Dan didn't unleash his flame thrower? How did he hold it back? I'd guess that it took all his willpower to "not" launch into a rocket engine, souring flight into the high heavens. He kept his rocket ship on the launch pad. That is WILD!!!

The two harmonize so perfectly together! There is also a gorgeous song on the record "Scores Of War" by ORION'S REIGN: 'Nostos'. Only Miniva can be seen in the video, but Dan's voice is unmistakable. He was the singer on this record. Minniva has also done a lot of great cover songs, it's really worth discovering her RU-vid channel. Oh yes, they also did two funny Christmas songs together with ORION'S REIGN. 😁 And there's a Dan Vasc version of 'Thunderstruck' and ORION'S REIGN (with accompanying video) on their RU-vid channel, as well as a NIGHTWISH cover of 'Élan' from 2015.

So beautiful - great job 👏

I watched this a couple months ago . It’s so sweet and cute

Beautiful! They compliment each other soo well.

Enjoyed your reaction. Loved the harmonies in this video. Thanks!

Thank you for your good reaction to an impressive duet from Minniva and Dan. The voices harmonized very well with each other. On Minniva's channel you could read that it is already 2 years old, but could only be finished now due to her burnout. I share your impression that the music was a bit too loud in relation to the singing.

Great ideas Ken!

He has sung with this lady before. Their voices compliment each other. They are both powerful voices. Thankyou for this. I heard his new drop today and cried. Ah well. Minniva sings with Orion's Reign. Enjoyed this.

Dan and Minniva were both singers with the band Orian’ Reign. The title is Beauty and the Beast. Thanks for your reaction!

2/7/2024 Hi Kevin, Thank you for this video. Where did you find it, because this is not on his videocannel. Dan sang several Christmas duets with Minniva when he was the leadsinger of the metalband Orion's Reing. You can also find the video's on their site. Album Scores of War was released in 2018 and received good reviews from professionals. I think Dan had already left the band by then, but you do recognize his voice on the album. Nice to find Dan's work in unexpected corners that can not be seen on his RU-vid channel. I love this style you review now very much but it don't give me the power that his metal does. Dan definitly sparked my love for the powermetal. And I dit not expectad that on my 62. What Dan does touches my soul. Thank you so much for the review and I can't wait for you to review My heart will go on. 😊😊😊😊

They sound like actual Disney singers

I agree with you. The music is too dominant, which is a shame, because the vocals are so intriguing.

Completely agree...the track was too loud..would have loved to hear their voices more.

I feel like everytime Kevin does a an older song of his then Dan drops a new one

He's done Beauty And The Beast before but with a different singer.

I know what you mean about the backing track level. Both have great vocals on this song. It's a shame the vocals were not brought forward.

You are saying her name correctly. Dan didn't do anything but sing in this song and he would have toned the music down some if he had been able to, I'm sure. Thanks for your reaction!

Agree Ken, she has a much better voice and prescence than Celine

She being beautiful helps lol

I checked, and you haven't reacted to Dan's previous release of this song, with Alina Lesnik. It's very different. I would say I'm torn between the two, but really, I'm not. They are simply two different takes on the same story. With the earlier one (6 years ago) with Alina, there's much more equality in the song, and it's (basically, I think...just my own thoughts) a more professional and strong arrangement, MUSICALLY. With this one (that was actually recorded two years ago, then Minniva (and you're saying her name correctly) had a pretty bad breakdown, from what she and others have said, and she never got the track completed. You may have heard her and Dan singing "together" with Orion's Reign, if you reacted to some of their Christmas music (I haven't checked to see, and I saw SO many Christmas song reactions that I can't remember, off-hand). They never. They were good, but even then (before Dan finally decided he couldn't do all of what he wanted with his own channel, while still singing with Orion's Reign, and so he quit), I felt like he either was feeling a little bit in extra awe of Minniva, or he wasn't quite sure HOW to blend with her voice, but that really doesn't seem likely. On this one, now, there's still just a tad of that hesitancy, BUT...I really feel like it was intentional in this one, because of the actual STORY of that part in the movie. It felt, to me, that Dan was playing the part of the beast wondering if he should even BE in the presence of the beauty. Maybe he should ROAR, and be the dominating personage...or...maybe he should tone himself down and be the real person that he is, underneath. Then once they begin to indicate to each other that they actually share the tale, from both of their lives, things musically begin to even out, with the beast actually paying homage to the bravery and quality of the beauty, as the bit of hopelessness fades out to a tentative boldness, himself. I don't think THAT take would have worked with Alina, at all. On the other hand, perhaps a BIT more attentiveness and "brightness" could have been taken away from the Alina arrangement, and transferred to the Minniva arrangement. There again, though...thankfully I/we don't have to choose between the two presentations! I honestly love seeing and hearing Dan be everything he CAN be, which is an almost blinding array sometimes! Thanks for the really nice reaction, Ken. 😀
