Voice Teacher Reaction to Jane Zhang - Diva Dance LIVE from The 5th Element - 官方版 - 張靚穎演繹第五元素神曲 

For people who haven't heard of Jane before, she is actually a pop singer

Weren’t we just talking about what makes a quality singer. This young lady has it all. Beautiful tone, excellent range, and wonderful stage presence. Having said all that, I bet she would say it wasn’t perfect. It’s that pursuit of perfect that takes talent like hers to the top.

I think Jane may be the best female singer of our time, She has an amazing range

YES. Jane is on my YT playlist for a while now. I never ask myself if she does the Diva Dance better than Dimash. Both shine like Stars (Alien Worlds), in their specific ways.

The vocals in The Fifth Element were provided by Inva Mula. She claimed that the song, as written, was impossible to sing because of how quickly one needed to shift between high and low notes. Notes were recorded individually and spliced together to create the vocals for the scene.

Jane Zhang is exceptional, she's called "The Dolphin Princess" ! Thank you for this reaction ! 👍

She is amazing ❤

I love Jane for her versatility. She is convincing in a lot styles, both Western and Eastern. It's very fascinating to me because it seems you would need to break a lot of habits to switch between different genres. Thank you for the reaction.

oh my gosh! my heart "fluttered" when I saw you come up on my notification, Jane Zhang. I had a half-smirk/smile the entire time. I thoroughly enjoyed your take on her rendition. Your smiles on her high notes, her "shimmers", (that's a term I never knew of), I loved every part of this video, especially you enjoying it. Her high notes are gorgeous and I'm so happy you've had the chance to hear her sing, thank you. your insight into this performance, makes me appreciate her talent even more, thank you Valerie.

She removes the ear pieces because she moves in front of the orchestra's monitors, and she is now singing of the timing of the "grave" band. I do belive you can still find Jane Zhang practice sessions to perform this song where she is singing from a "plank" position to exercise her stomach muscles. Really cool performance

This is the first time you've actually introduced me to somebody. I look forward to watching this.

thank you for this reaction! i love jane zhang ♥

Yes, awesome !! well done, Jane !!

And it’s worth knowing Jane is a pop singer who has multiple major hits in China throughout her career so far. For her to showcase this kind of performance is bold and impressive.

good reaction love jane so beautiful voice

That was awesome, and a great review sweet Valerie, big big hugs

Besides Jane's beautiful appearance, she also got a beautiful voice!!

Perfect jane

Beautiful!

just practicing this song has greatly improved my range. 7 months in. still not there. but better than before.

Wow! That was amazing! She even did the vocal fry similar to Dimash doing it ( though of course not as low ).Of course he's basically like a baritone who could go as high as she could so that may impress people more, but she has spectacular range of her own and many different things she can do with her voice and different colors.

Wow. She is the Best

she sang that live on stage...wow!

It's interesting to see people reaction on this video ,especially from a voice teacher :))))

I like Painted Heart OST by Jane Zhang, because I watched the movie. Also, I like Loving You cover by Jane Zhang.

One of my favourite pieces to both sing and listen to, thank you dahling it is always good to see you. GivethanXo love and light blessedbe #letthemusicplay #thedivadance #thehillsarealive 🎤🎶🎵🎼

Thanks for the vid. Sorry i kept getting distracted by your gorgeous hair! Both very beautiful women

perfect performance

I don't think she is the original singer - she wasn't an opera singer either. She came to the scene in China from a talent show like a dozen years ago, and has been big in China ever since. She has her VEVO channel on RU-vid and has sung a couple English songs, mostly pop. But she has nice little diversions now and then just for fun. I remember several years ago she sang "Concerto pour deux voix" in her concert or something. She's definitely one of the best voices the Chinese pop scene has to offer.

The original singer who sang the diva dance aria was Inva Mula-Tchako. It is an aria from lucia di lammer moore by Gaetano Donizetti "Il dolce suono" ("The Sweet Sound") The French composer Éric Serra, composed the more "futuristic bit" for the movie The Fifth Element.

She’s actually a pop song singer.

Thanks for sharing. She is tremendously wonderful.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

The woman who sang it originally for the movie is an Albanian opera singer named Inva Mula-Tchako. She also did it with very few actual computer effects; there are parts with huge octave jumps in fast time that were sung and then enhanced with technology. Look her up as she's an amazing artist as well.

Pronounced "Jarng" (without the "r"). Check out her "All of Me" for astonishing skills including with the mike.

No she took the monitor off cause a crazy scene is coming up that’s how you know the song is ganna go wild

Jane Zhang woulda needed to be 10 or 11 to sing it for Fifth Element. It was made in 1998 I think

What did you say at 5 minutes and 52 seconds? She has such great what?

Seeing the comment below, and i deeply feel ridiculous when someone compared a POP singer with a classical singer. I would say, of course, Dimash did very well, and he must do well in his own field as a classical singer. Jane is a POP singer who jumped out from the comfort zone to try something new, and as you can see, her performance was as good as the classical singer.

I think you should listen other Chinese singer,like 小河淌水by龚丽娜，named little running river,or 左手指月by 萨顶顶，named left hand refers to the moon

Yeah the original was digitally pieced together in a way that they thought a human couldn't replicate the notes in sequence but that chick did the impossible

The impression at 3:40... I felt that. 😀

喜欢看着你们看着华夏人，然后feel amazing

Please Diva Dance Bastau by Dimash thank you!

As you figured out later, this song was not supposed to be humanly possible to sing, at all. It was supposed to sound inhumanly "alien" and, thus, it's more than a small miracle that humans are able to achieve singing it with any measure of proficiency, period. There is someone in the opera world I'd love you to check out, Valerie; a young Eastern European delight whose name is Patricia Janečková. She has a fair-sized repertoire under her belt, already, but one performance that really caught my eye (and ear) was her rendition of 'Les Oiseaux dans La Charmille'. She's come an amazingly long way for someone so young: her voice is amazingly rich and full. ^_^

Jane Zhang - Diva Dance 4+ React+

Thanks for your reaction! Personally I prefer Adriano Celentano “Confessa “ + Diva Dance by Dimash Kudaibergen to Lucia di Lammermoor by Donizetti + Diva Dance . Vocalist Kudaibergen make Diva dance Dimash Dance. The best Diva Dance in the World

Hii try Jason Zhang -Myself pleasee!!

Listen to zhou Shin "time to say good bye"

which part of this song has the most difficulty? the operatic part, or the diva dance? I loved your soft nods in appreciation. thank you Valerie.

Beautiful women

What do you mean by "shimmery high notes"? Is it like "bright high notes"?

there is also nice version from Evgenia Laguna (live in Los Angeles), actually not so much singers dare to do it :)

What does the monitor do? I see a lot of vocalists on stages have them but I genuinely thought it was to plug up one ear so you could hear yourself. LOL!

How about Jona Viray the magic flute?

She is not the original singer in the movie

yeah, one is always better without any pesky inner monitors - agree ! 🙃

Kosheen?

Great video! Id like to see a reaction on Melanie C or Celine if you havent if you can one day ^_^ Im new here haha.

Dimash.DivaDance.Bastau.Please

Here's a really nice version by the original artist. Not sure if this enhanced/remixed but the super-low glissando and crazy staccato is brought out in this one (although overdone stereo side flipping) and the runs are smooth. Even though it was digitally edited it's still an awesome feat. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PMErStBmoSE.html

Please, do a react to kamijo - louis enketsu no la vie en rose (live)

im more impressed by dimash version but still great

To sing this peace technically dificult. I've seen a performance where she does this much better.

Why react that way why not just congratulate for being able to preform???

She is close to Dimash on Diva Dance. These two should perform together. If you have not, watch Dimash sing the Diva Dance. It is two songs combined: CONFESSA/DIVA DANCE ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SIKvTKkpvnY.html I personally think no one can do the Diva Dance better than Dimash. Lets see if you concur. However, Jane is a wonderful female singer in her own right.

She is perfect but Inva Mulla is on a higher unreachable level

you wrote about the song, "wasn't never suppose to be sung live." Improper English. It should be "was Never" or Wasn't ever."

Jane is one of a kind.. You may try to listen Dimash Kudaibergen's whistling as well.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u52XDilf628.html

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bgo0CDL6bd0.html el video de ella también está bien

the hall is too big That's a football stadium

She has an awesome voice...but sorry to say Dimash destroyed her version of Diva Dance...not that she was bad its just that Dimash is that freaking good..

She is very good, but she skips some low parts unlike Dimash who has by far the best rendition. Every singer I have seen other than Dimash has skipped or failed on a part of the song.

Your attribution of Jane Zhang as the original singer is pretty bad for someone that works in the music field. A simple Google search would show that the Albanian coloratura soprano Inva Mula is the original singer in the film, not Jane. For more comparisons of Diva Dance singers see ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-785qBy7IQaQ.html

Dimash was better than she💁

Don't know how you can make a mistake like this. The most cursory of searching would've let you know who the original singer was. I fear your review was affected, as you probably began with a higher estimation of this singer than would otherwise have been the case. Let's face it. Zhang is not very good. Sure, compared to Jane Smith walking on the street, she's great. But, compared to world-class singers, she can't hold a candle. If she didn't look the way she does, she would garner nowhere near the kind of fanfare that she does. It must be tricky for reactors/reviewers to maintain their sense of integrity, conviction (if they ever had much of one) making these reaction videos. Because they mostly always have to be so sickeningly sweet about everyone, so diplomatic, lest they risk losing subscribers or worse. But, not everybody is a Dimash (not even Dimash is "Dimash" every performance, though he's far more consistent than most -- and the greatest are the ones who are at top form the most consistently) or So-Hyang, and not everyone should garner the same type of fawning review. This "Diva Dance" performance pales in comparison to Dimash's Bastau performance. Most other "Diva Dance" performances by Dimash himself pale in comparison to his Bastau performance (though, nowhere to the degree that this Zhang performance does). This performance does not deserve a glaring review. Yes, if in comparison to your local social hall performers, sure, but not in comparison to the highest levels in the world. Laura's (disneydiva7) cover actually is good. In fact, it could be argued that it is more faithful to the original than Dimash's. And, it's sung at a very high level. However, like substantially all human performances, it is decidedly "of human." You can never escape the sense of the limitations of "being human." Whereas with Dimash - and with So-Hyang - you can almost believe that "this can't be human." Dimash's Bastau "Diva Dance" exceeds the original. It sounds better than the original. And, this electronically-enhanced piece of music that was never supposed to be possible to be sung by a human actually sounds better with Dimash singing it. And, he does it with seeming ease. It is well within his capabilities, is the ever-present, astonishing awareness that you are left with, even as you watch it with your mouth agape. Well, anyhow, there that is.

this "teacher" is poor
