    It definitely isn’t uncommon at all for Dimash to have subtle changes between one performance or another, it actually makes it more interesting because we never know exactly what he’s going to do. I think I prefer this New Wave performance, while the other one is different, I feel like his performance style here really suits the lyrics, having to think back to the day this was released, I found this so intriguing. Thank you for sharing both versions, looking forward to your next reaction ❤.

    I see several recommendations for Ikanaide, Dimash's first song in Japanese performed and recorded in a studio for an online concert, Tokyo Jazz Festival, during the quarantine in Japan in Nov 2021. Gorgeous song that the composer, Koji Tamaki and songwriter, Goro Matsuri both stated was sung in perfect Japanese and the most beautiful Japanese song they had heard from a foreign singer. Dimash had previously sung a very beautiful but different version with totally different lyrics written in Mandarin for a tv docudrama but the Japanese version is the original and is a glowing masterpiece.

    @@bookworm8385 OK, a brief history of the Mandarin version of Ikanaide. The original song was released and sung by Koji Tamaki the composer of the song. The first Chinese version of the song was translated into Cantonese. A little later the producers of a joint Chinese/Japanese tv series got permission to commission new lyrics in Mandarin to create the theme song for the docudrama about a Chinese actress of Japanese heritage who hid her Japanese heritage but was found out and was deported after WWII. The theme song was called Late Autumn (Autumn Strong). Dimash sang Autumn Strong in the Singer competition in 2017 and later the same year was awarded Best Foreign Singer Award in Hong Kong for his beautiful version of this song. Ikanaide was never about the Chinese actress. And Dimash sang Ikanaide the original song to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Koji Tamaki's music career. There was a sweet interview on Japanese tv where Dimash virtually met Koji Tamaki. Koji was so happy to meet Dimash even via a live screen because he had heard Dimash sing Autumn Strong and loved it. It was so sweet. Dimash told Koji he was planning to sing a Japanese song for the Tokyo Jazz Festival.

    Thank you for doing both versions. And I really appreciate that you commented that the whole point is that it is Dimash's voice, Dimash's performance with Igor. I am really tired of people who focus only on if Dimash is live or not, instead of the fact that he is phenomenal and all choices are his and he is not using tools to alter his voice (like auto tune etc.). Dimash makes his own choices and does not let others make choices for him. There are times, I believe mostly in Russia, where there are production rules (usually for TV) where artists must use playback so that there is no surprises. I agree with you about the Kobyz. It is an incredible instrument and is haunting. The sound is similar to other instruments, but it truly stands alone. This composition by Igor for Dimash is epic. Dimash is epic! :D I love hearing your observations and your explanations.

    Exactly! I don't see why some people always bring up lipsynch. 🙄 Regardless, we know this is Dimash and know he can sing this and he has done it live. Nobody even knows for sure except for his production team. The point is, there are many haters and they love to try to discredit him. I have never seen so many trolls on any other artists because nobody else have this kind of range.

    actually nowhere in this performance sounds lipsynced at all, i dont know why it's popular to complain about this one. But there are a few times that were definitely lipsynced (the russian concert), and you have to also consider in most cases, when the host for whatever reason sets it up without live sound, the performer has little choice but to follow along. lipsync'ing is actually harder, and it's not fun to do. They're forced to lipsync.

    Whenever Dimash performs any song more than once, or even hundreds of times (ie SOS) he always sings it differently, sometimes totally differently ( ie Know, Durdaraz ) he likes to make our experience interesting and fresh. Also its more fun for him to change it up. Dimash is a very exciting vocalist, musician and performer, especially at his own concerts. His latest world tour which is still underway, Hungary oncert is 4th May tickets still available, but hurry if you want one ❤ Duet with Placido Domingo coming in the next few weeks too plus his new MVs for his new songs shouldnt be too much longer. Cant wait, and he is still in China so more to come from there as well. He really is a constantly busy man ❤

    Definitely like the fact you did both versions. He adds the Kobyz on a lot of songs he sings, mostly in Kazakh language songs. The man who is playing the instrument is Olzhas Qurmanbek. He travels with Dimash on tour, as Olzhas is one of the best players in the world. Dimash loves showcasing Kazakh instruments, Dimash himself plays the dombra, another 2 stringed instrument. Im not one to choose one version over the other. I just like it when new versions are released.

    Это не мнение, а факт. В том и дело, что у него в 5 выступлениях все один в один, даже в эквалайзере проверяли, и изредка другие версии, где он якобы болеет. И никто ему не завидует и не спорит, что он умеет петь в живую и огого как. Просто надо принять тот факт, что после союза с Крутым 90% выступлений, в том числе концерты(большая часть песен) под фанеру. А мимика у него всегда попадает, именно потому, что умеет петь, даже скорее всего поет, просто в колнки другая дорожка идет.

    Абсолютно с Вами согласна. Димаш уважает своих слушателей, я только один раз столкнулась со студийной записью - на телевизионной трансляции московского концерта. И там Димаш указал вначале "Знай", что это студийная запись. Позже пришло объяснение, что снимавшие концерт, не смогли записать нормально этот номер, пришлось переписывать в студии. Я тогда впервые столкнулась с тем, что артист сделал такую сноску. В этом весь наш несравненный Димаш, с уважением, из Казахстана, а по поводу фонограмм, он бы из студии вообще не выходил, если бы на каждое выступление писал фонограмму, у него все выступления отличаются какими-то нюансами, импровизациями, я уже со счета сбилась сколько версий "СОС" прослушала.

Played beautifully, I feel it enhances the unsettling ambiance. I don’t need Dimash to display all his vocal gymnastic extremes within one song to appreciate what an amazing singer he is.

Inclusive, ele cantou esta música 100% ao vivo no seu último concerto em HongKong, dia 23 de dezembro. Tem vídeos de fancam espalhados pela internet para quem quiser conferir.

    I'm personally tired of the lip syncing argument. The problem is that it only takes one person to throw doubt and it gets taken up by a whole crowd of people who find it difficult to believe anyone can sing like this. I've now noticed in the concerts since 2022 that he's changing songs in subtle ways far more than he used to possibly because he himself is growing tired of the lip sync accusations. There's even times that I've thought he was but then seen backstage or fancam footage that revealed he was indeed singing live. Obviously there's times when according to circumstances or requirements he has to do it, but I don't think it's anywhere near as much as people accuse him of.

    Agree. In general my views on lip syncing are: so what if an artist is lip syncing? There could be many reasons why they're doing it, one of which might be guaranteeing a musically better performance for the fans (e.g. if the artist is ill at the time) I can see issues with it if the artist says "that performance was live" but it wasn't, but other than that, I really see no issue with it

    @@SirHairless I liked the fact that you pointed out that apart from some stylistic choices and the end note being fractionally shorter in the Chinese performance the two were almost identical. As we know for certain that the Chinese performance was 💯 live at a time when he was suffering severe breathing problems ending with him being hospitalised, I don't understand why people don't think he could have done the previous performance live when he was at peak fitness. I know someone spread a rumour that all Russian televised performances had to be lip synced due to regulations but I don't believe this to be true as we know that Passione (which he also performed at New Wave) was 💯 live due to backstage footage and Dimash's own explanation of why the choir had to use playback but he and Igor were both live. Btw you really should take a look at Passione, for some reason it doesn't get the attention it deserves but it's a truly incredible performance inspired by Dante's Inferno.

    You’re now officially a Dear. (Dimash has named his fans “Dears” because they are dear to him. That should already tell you how humble he is. You might’ve heard some of these following things already before but just in case you haven’t: • He started singing at age 5 and has trained every day since for a minimum of 4h per day. • He has at least 3 Master’s Degrees in music and defending his Master's thesis with a perfect score, and receiving a recommendation for admission to doctoral studies in music. • He plays at least 7 instruments • He has won 4 major singing competitions • He won the three-day vocal competition with a full jury score of 180 out of 180 points; the first time in the history of the contest. • He gave his first solo concert in the USA on 10 December 2019. The show was titled Arnau Envoy and took place at the Barclays Center in New York. The venue was sold out with 19,000 spectators from 63 countries. • In July 2022 Dimash announced his new concert tour Stranger which was held in Almaty, Kazakhstan on September 23, 2022 at the Central Stadium in the city. The concert lasted 4.5h and it was filmed for his channel and can be found on his KZread page in 3 parts. It was sold out. Audience members reported to be nearly 35,000 in attendance from 68 countries. • He was born May 24th 1994, which makes him 29 years. • He has performed songs in 13 different languages. • His range expands 6 octaves and 8 semitones. He sings from C2 to C6 to F#6 and, D8. • He has made numerous donations and acts of humanitarianism, far too many to list below. • He performed The Story of One Sky, the first time at the Seventh Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions. One of the listeners was Pope Francis, who later met with him and presented him with a commemorative medal. Also.. I wanted to add that even though I believe there are many other songs that are important for you to hear, to experience all aspects of his talent but one of the most important ones is: The Story of One Sky There are two videos or actually performances you should see. 1st one is most definitely The Story of One Sky Official Music Video, one of the most expensive music videos ever made if not the most expensive and after that, the 2nd video Watch his live performance of that song of/performance at his 4,5h long concert in Almaty. His performance of The Story of One Sky is in his Part 3 of the Almaty concert (found on his KZread page!) at 25:35. BEFORE you do the reaction to his music video there’s tons of information you should have or if you decide blind react to it, then read the following information AFTER watching it, BUT BEFORE giving your thoughts on it to have all the information! Here is a few things to help understand all the aspects of the story of The Story of One Sky. It is subtitled "Requiem” but it is also a vision and a call to action. Dimash is steeped in sacred music and has a deep understanding of the mystic teachings and symbolism of the major world religions as well as Kazakh shamanism. It is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14, 2022, at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions in Kazakhstan. The written statement at the end of the video is directly from the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed jointly on February 4, 2019, by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad el-Tayeb. Dimash met and spoke with both men at the September meeting. Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel. I only touch on some of what struck me in the symbolism. The music is a dissertation all by itself. The pendant is an interesting element. It is a gnomon from a maritime compass sundial. This triangular blade is attached to the sundial, casting a shadow on the sundial while the perforated pinhole projects the image of the sun onto the dial. It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. In the MV, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon, but distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through, as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers. Contemporary music is also present: With the phrase "We have passed the moment of Imagine," Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must act and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way. The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment, we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war. The Piper's call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let's remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start the war, who do not support the war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against? The burning sign "Waldenberg" is a reference to the end of WWII when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht to end the war in April 1945. Waldenburg was completely destroyed as you can see from the picture. Many of the dead in those bombed out buildings were women and children. The good guys defeated evil but at what price? iowaculture.gov/history/education/educator-resources/primary-source-sets/world-war-ii/american-troops-move-through The imagery of the denouement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of his wife giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant that creates a sacred space, reminding us that death and life are both sacraments and are interwoven. Dimash's vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. When Dimash’s character decides to avenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storm of his emotions that buffet the pilgrims. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the "sacred womb" of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy, and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war and suffering by choosing life. Dimash's scream of “we’re choosing life” is that of giving birth: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity as exemplified by the images of the children and the newborn baby. The blowing of the shofar signals God's mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right: in the Zohar, the book of Jewish mysticism, it says: “When human beings repent of their sins, they blow the shofar on earth. Its sound ascends On High and awakens the heavenly shofar, and so mercy is aroused and judgment is removed.” Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash's character in the form of his son becomes a guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage, and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect. Carl Jung wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” This is what Dimash has done with this work; he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time. We don’t have to wait. We can start right now. As the hymn tells us: "Let there peace in the world, and let it begin with me." Baraka Bashad.

    It is hard to watch the other version, honestly, knowing Dimash could hardly breathe, but so glad you chose to react to this, the song's premiere, and see the kobyz properly too! It's all a bit reminiscent of Dimash's premiere performance of Daybreak on The Singer (please use Gloria Wu's version with backstory)while sick, followed by Daybreak at Dimash's Basteau concert several months later, one of his greatest live performances ever....please do the two of them together! ❤

Not only the song but the 13 minutes video clip too. Imagine that he awarded by the Pope Francis, the head of the catholic church for this song, even if he is Muslim.

    So happy to see you reacting to Dimash again It's like a habit of waiting for you to analyze what other songs from DIMASH you will dissect 😅, Next time I want you to analyze Dimash's song "Ikanaide", " Story' of one Sky ", " Your Love " , " Love is like a dream" , "Adagio " and many more .. For this version of Strangers, what I appreciate is his singing talent, you also know that his talent is a gift from God, which not all humans can have, not all singers can do. And that is an extraordinary gift... That's why I idolize DIMASH, because apart from his singing talent, he is a very good person, really like his character, He has good manners, That's why we love him so much .. and we are proud to be DEARS Thanks for reaction my bro .. your are very good And Happy new year ..

    He seems to improvise all the time.In an online interview a fan asked how he took the highest note in the concert, and he said something like by chance, he was "carried away". I believe it, because several times he wouldn't leave the stage when supposed to, the backup group had to "drag" him to change the costume.

    On Shine, Dimash made choices not only for his voice while sick, but also shortened for time within the tv program & didn’t have the live music nor live Qobyz. So instead he chose a special and new set of melismas and runs, changed the vocal style he used for many of the notes. His artistry & technical skills are truly unmatched.

    Both versions of the song are undoubtedly super impressive and good. I, personally, prefer this one, because the extreme goat trill (if that is the name for it) took me a bit out of the song, while the choices made in this one didn't disturb the flow of the song to my ears. Personal preference, I like it when the song itself feels of equal weight to the vocal acrobatics he is capable of and the other version didn't feel as balanced as this one to me.
