Hello gents. Saw this video today and decided to sign in to KZread after many many years to add a comment. I enjoy watching Lara reactions primarily as confirmation bias to my love of her music. I have been a fan since the release of Carpe diem in 1994. In both of your deep dives I have also greatly enjoyed Eric's data dump. I think I can honestly say that I actually feel pain when I hear of her very difficult life experiences. I was very happy that Eric led you to this concert but somewhat disappointed that time constraints seemed to limit your discourse, particularly in the second half. No criticism, because a lot of ground was being covered. I was particularly interested in your views on la Traviata but it seems to have been cut short. Also, I am always amused to hear people compare her to other singers and rank her against them. A highly subjective exercise for sure. To me I remember my old marketing lessons where it was emphasized that "if you can't be the best in your category, create a new category". As a writer, arranger, vocalist, actor and peerless empath she is alone in her category. She doesn't do whistle tones, she doesn't have a ridiculous octave range but no one integrates such a broad range of talents as she does. I enjoy and am impressed by many artists but no one moves me like Lara.

This whole concert is one of the best and most artistic performances in history...by anyone! Pure genius and magic.

I love Lara so much 🥰 I was born in the mid 90's and being french, she's one of the first french speaking singers that i remember being a fan of because she could compete with the great divas ! And she's such a great storyteller and so good at conveying emotions ❤ And to hear "Tu es mon autre" with Maurane again is just amazing ❤😭

Hi 👋 Merci messieurs pour ce merveilleux moment partagé avec nous. Eric merci pour toutes vos connaissances à propos de LARA❤. RICHARD et JOHNNY, vous êtes les meilleurs et je vous aime messieurs ❤❤❤ Continuez à nous faire rêver, je vous souhaite une excellente journée à vous et à vos familles. Bons baisers de Paris 🇫🇷❤❤❤ Soyez en paix 😘😘😘🙏🙏🙏

Hey guys, here come some infos: Firstly, I'd like to thank you both for the gift and congratulations for the assertive and emotional analyses. Let me start by saying that Lara recorded this DVD to "calm down" the French critics of music, whom for years made harsh and unfounded criticisms about her, calling her "the singer who only screams", they even created puppets of her and showed videos of them screaming during hours on the most famous TV shows in France, from 1997 to 1998, Lara said that when she watched it on TV, she cried a lot and even spent days without being able to sing, She decides to stay on mute mode due to the trauma. It is necessary to understand that the music industry and the francophone audience (especially from France) have a very peculiar taste in music, different from the audience in the United States who LOVE singers who "scream/belts a lot", fireworks and dancers interacting with the singer, the public and French critics HATE these things, they prefer whn the singer doesn't belt at all or just a little bit, so the singer MUST to keep her voice in the medium register (C4 to C5), so Just for the record, in all of the songs she sang on this dvd, she lowered at least 1 tone and didn't belt even 20% than she does in her usual live performances and in her albums. She did this because she was afraid of belting too much and holding high notes for several seconds (which is easy for her) so the concert would receive only negative reviews from the critics. In fact eve nowadays Lara still changes her tracklist and adjusts her vocal range while touring on France, she doesn't belt as much as when she performs outside France. The last song she sang it's called "bambina" (child/girl, in Italian), is about a miscarriage that she suffered 2 years before This concert, in fact Lara has already reported that she had 2 or 3 miscarriages throughout her life, and just managed to have her daughter in 2007 after medical treatment. She also suffered a lot from bulimia and anorexia when she entered the USA music industry, years ago during a looong Interview in Canada she revealed that back in 2000 Sony Music producers put in the contract she signed required her to be skinny (S size), She would be belting in every song of her album in English, she should also have to keep her hair platinum blonde (as the USA audience prefer like that) and she would have to perform among more than 6 dancers with her on stage. She accepted It for just 1 year, then she performed in several tv shows, radios and awards in The USA Just the way Sony asked her to, but she started to get seriously physically ill and depressed and then she broke the contract, Sony decided to boycotted her songs and albums in the USA industry and radios, they also canceled the recordings of her video clips and her next album in English that would be released in the end of 2002, even though she managed to keep her songs I Will Love Again for 52 weeks at the #1 position om Billboard Dance Charts. But with no regret she went back to Canada in the same year (2002) she broke with Sony and recorded an album entirely in French called Intime (which became her second most seller French album) just one year before this DVD you guys just reacted to. ❤ In 2005 she launched her own label (The NEUF Music Productions) and started to release her album being her own boss, no more Sony or other company would control her compositions or the way she sings her songs. PS: Sorry, English is my third language. 😊😅

Thank you for reacting to this concert. Imo it's peak artistry and everything is just perfect: from her vocals, arrangement of the songs to musicians, staging,lighting ...Lara is a gem and powerhouse of emotions. Once again thank you❤

Lara est tellement majestueuse et dynamique...elle gouverne la scène...quelle voix extraordinaire!!

I always wondered why she wasn't more popular in the US. She is one of the best female performers and voices of our time for sure. I don't understand the language she sings in but I can listen to her for hours. This video explains that and it's a shame for the fans like me who ended up finding her on KZread. Sony be damned. I can certainly understand why the Sony executives wouldn't want the horse they backed singing in the same venue as Lara.

I know she is really popular in New York, but you guys have really been robbed for years. Lara has the rest of the world and we here in Europe love her. I jumped on a plane from Norway to Budapest to see her in concert Amazing😊

For me, Lara was, is and always will be one of the best singers in the World. I'm happy to see that you guys love her as much as many of us do. Thanks for the live, it was incredible. I'll definitely wait for more. Greetings from Poland 🫶

Richard and Johnny you are ones of our favorite reactors!!...Thank you for this amazing gift!!...And thank you Eric for your incredible knowledge and support to our Goddess Lara!!❤

What a fabulous concert! Lara takes us into her world, but also transforms herself into a true ambassador of French chanson, with songs by Charles Aznavour, Jacques Brel, Jean-Jacques Goldman, Renaud and Serge Lama, as well as Michel Berger's musical STARMANIA, a "little jewel" that I've been listening to non-stop since its release. I'd also like to pay tribute to Maurane, who we miss with her "warm" voice.

Lara Fabian est tellement bonne à faire passer une émotion naturelle et réelle...quelle voix et quel talent!!

Thank you Richard, Johnny and Eric, for this great reaction, to one of the most beautiful concerts, from my absolute favorite singer. Lara is simply wonderful❤

Magnificent reaction to this legendary concert by the incomparable artist Lara Fabian

One of her best live for sure.. She really captivates her pubblic... She gets you deeply in your soul... Queen ❤

Emotion from beginning to end in this fantastic concert by Lara Fabian. A mix of feelings that deeply touches the heart and soul. Great job guys. Congratulations!!!

Thank you very much for this wonderful moment you shared with us 🙏, I was lucky to see this concert, surely one of the most beautiful I have seen in my life. Imagine being in the third row and seeing Lara come in a nightie and sing La Traviata, my god. This concert follows a period when Lara was very criticized, She says it herself "I sing too loud I'm too much...", by this concert she closed the beak to a lot of people, and that's her strength she is what and how to stay herself, for our greatest pleasure 😊 Et grand merci à Eric 👍

Richard, Johnny and Eric - thank you so much for this lovely gift of sharing this concert with us. ❤ I hadn’t seen a couple of these performances and it was a joy discovering them with you. Feel better soon, Richard! See you tomorrow for Dimash! ❤

It was a great live, I learned a lot and discovered some Lara songs that I had not heard so far. I got goosebumps several times during your live reaction. Such a great performer, singer and storyteller she is, a truly complete artist, definitelly. See you soon again 👋

Thank you so much Richard and Johnny for your reaction on our Queen Madam Lara Fabian . Merci Eric aussi de faire connaitre madame Lara Fabian a nous tous . Une merveille toujours à écouter et apprécier .

🇨🇦 I will leave the comments to you all, and I will simply say that I always enjoy listening to my favourite artist ! Just a pianist, a piano and Lara ! 🇨🇦

This was wonderful. Really appreciate you giving us your time and reacting to this masterpiece. Advice: next time you a couple of hous, sit in a dark room and watch this concert with subtitles on your TV screen and you will find another dimension to this concert. ❤

Thank you so much for doing this! I was fortunate to see her both nights in Ottawa in June. I have recordings of several of these songs. If you’re interested in hearing her perform them today, I can certainly get them to you.

For those who want to see Lara Fabian in a live concert soon , she will be in Bucarest Romania at the "Unforgettable Festival" Sept. 13/15 2024. She will be performing Saturday 14th, alone and on duet with other artists. I guess I'll be there 😊

Her best concert of all her great concerts ❤ I have seen a lot concerts in my life but this one is so special- I have never seen something like this before and afterwards.

You must see Lara at Moscow Madame Zhivago concert , just perfect

Thank you Richard and Johnny for your reaction. I am sure that Lara is feeling it from wherever she is. I which you can meet her. Always lift us up with her voice. Love you guys

Thank you so much for that live. I very much enjoy your natural and easygoing way to deliver your reactions. Eric, merci également : grâce à vous j'apprends tellement de choses sur Lara.

Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalists ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, and Lisa Fischer,... In my opinion, she is even the best. There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance allows her to sing acapella without a mic in venues with 8,000 attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "The Ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management, and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register. So, she is one of the best vocalists ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence: • she speaks 2 languages natively (French, Italian), and 2 others fluently (English, Spanish), can speak a bit of Dutch (and Sicilian), and understand quite well Russian and Portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for most of her songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music with the composer. • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none • She is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens. A quick background on her and her career: She is Belgian, her father is Flemish, but also has Italian roots (her mother is from Sicilia) and American roots ( her grandfather is from Detroit). She was raised in Sicilia first then in Belgium, so she speaks both Italian and French as native languages. She has been classically trained in vocal, piano, and song composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) at the Brussels Royal Conservatory. She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the French-speaking part of Canada. She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She just moved back to Italy a few months ago (temporarily?). She became very famous in Quebec and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped the charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of French music). In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first English song (I Will Love Again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcast everywhere in the US. This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later). But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan. She thus refocused back on Europe and had huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy for several years. She is massive in Russia for instance. She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become recurrent in the local singing contests since then. Many of her songs became classics and were covered by other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, and Josh Groban (they are friends and he told her she is a role model for him), … With her success in Europe, Brazil, and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there. Through their covers of Lara Fabian's songs, the USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her. She is Dimash's idol: I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening to her songs every night to get asleep. He covered many of her songs, most of which were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by Lara. Out of my mind, I can list: ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer), ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je time encore" and was the original performer of the French then the Russian versions, Dimash covered the Russian version) ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know") She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love". She covered "Love is Like a Dream" before him (a song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Allah Pugacheva). Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in a trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya before this new trio with Dimash and Aida. Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara. Igor came back from retirement and composed several songs for him after it. Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration: ○ Floor Jansen (Adagio), ○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime), ○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie), ○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow), ○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace), ○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow), ○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Julie Anne San Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio) ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the European part in September/October, and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was spectacular again. In April and May 2023, she had again a wonderful concert in Tbilissi, Georgia, and in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.

Some of the songs in her performances with Krutoy, unfortunately, are lip-synced "Llora" being one of the more notable among a number that are faked. Sad, but true. I wish she had had the backbone or clout necessary to refuse participation in such deception on this scale.

I loved the woman in her 30 year with her intensity and her vocal performances. I loved the 40 year old with her willingness to discover many different musical styles, always with a fabulous voice. And I love the woman in her 50s who has managed to preserve her voice through hard work, adapting to the evolution of her voice while retaining that little bit of enthusiasm and complicity that makes us melt. I will love you forever and ever Even if you start rap

Great Job, as always!!! 👍👏❤️🇨🇦

Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …) ○ Floor Jansen (Adagio), ○ Polina Gagarina (Adagio, Je t’aime), ○ Diana Ankudinova (Tomorrow is a lie), ○ Morissette Amon (Broken Vow), ○ Gabriel Henrique (Love by Grace), ○ Cakra Khan (Broken Vow), ○ Charice Penpengco (Adagio), ○ Katrina Velarde (Broken Vow), ○ Regine Velasquez (Broken Vow), ○ Dmitri Hvorostovsky (Adagio), ○ Giulia Falcone (Adagio, Caruso, Je suis malade, Je t'aime), ○ Forestella (Je suis Malade), ○ Almira (from 4th Impact band) (Broken Vow), ○ Gigi de Lana (Broken Vow) ○ Julie Anne san Jose (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Rimar ( Adagio, Broken Vow, Know), ○ Il Divo (Adagio) ○ Daria Bentsa (I guess I loved you), ○ Sarah Geronimo (Broken Vow) ○ Laura Bretan ( Adagio, Caruso), ○ Jackie Evancho (Je t’aime, Caruso and Broken Vow, BV rewritten as « Imaginer » by Lara for Jackie), ○ Harrison Craig (Broken Vow), ○ Amir (Je t’aime), ○ Pauline Aguirre (Adagio)), ○ George Peris (Broken Vow, Humana), ○ Vitas (Adagio), ○ Wanessa Camargo (Love by Grace), ○ Anastasia Luna (Adagio), ○ Jeck (Je T’Aime), ○ Evgenia Fanfara (Adagio), ○ Anne Sila (pas sans toi, Tu es mon autre), ○ The Canadian Tenors (Adagio), ○ Anna Eriksson (Je suis malade), ○ Choi Sung Hoon (Je suis malade), ○ Soprano Turetsky band (Adagio), ○ Sarah Naura Irbah (Mademoiselle Hyde), ○ Elisabetta Rinaldi (Adagio), ○ Alyona Yarushina (Adagio), ○ Marie Payet (Pas sans toi), ○ Laurh (Immortelle), ○ Inger Lise Hope (Adagio), ○ Håkon Sønsterud Tollefsrød (Broken Vow), ○ Flora Tandi (Bambina), ○ Cindy Chao (Yeliel My Angel), ○ Majda Roumi (Adagio), ○ Abraham Mateo (Adagio), ○ Petra Berger (Adagio, Broken Vow), ○ Russel Watson (Adagio), ○ Katerina Maslova (Je t’aime, I guess I loved you) ○ Annointed (Love by Grace), ○ Sevara Nazarkhan (Je t’aime) ○ .... NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version. Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature. In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October 2022 and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular. On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania. She is about to release a new album and just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour France in 2025. The first song of her new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was released late January 2024 and is a success in France. Her album is expected to be released in fall 2024. Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.

Gracias chicos. Ya reaccionaron y analizaron a los dos músicos e intérpretes más completos de la música Dimash y Lara. Y ustedes saben de música Saludos desde la Argentina 😊

Now I'm waiting for Mademoiselle Hyde ❤

Magnificent . Lara just did an interview in English where she really demonstrates why she is hypersensitive .THANKS

(40.47) ...Lara made "Caruso" her own song even if it's a cover from 1986 from Lucio Dalla an italian, amazing songwriter. Eric is so right here.. A lot of famous artists did a cover of it.. Like Luciano Pavarotti, Andrea Bocelli and even Celine Dion (by the way Celine Dion's version with Florent Pagny is really mediocre... No dynamics, bad italian pronunciation and plain tone.. And she did it after Lara (2007).. She probably didn't watch Lara' s version and she thought she could have been doing it just better 😮) Lara really made this song her own song even if she didn't write it.. And her Italian is just perfect, even the few words of Napoletano 's dialect that she uses..( "Surriento" = Sorrento and "Te vojo bene assai, ma tanto tanto bene sai" ... = ti voglio tanto bene... "Che scioglie il sangue dinto' e vene sai" = che scioglie il sangue nelle vene sai ). Queen of interpretation ❤

You're so right. I looked at the version with Dion and Pagny and the two really managed to sing this song completely emotionless, very bad😕

Thanks a for yesterday afternoon with Lara. Was just great. Regarding Starmania, I think there is an English version on but the french one is definitely better. Also, I understand that Dimash has song "SOS d'un terrien en détresse" after listening to version of Grégory Lemarchal. Grégory is a young man (who passed away unfortunely very young) who did partcipated and won the "Star

The english version is titled Tycoon but yes the french original is way better.

I saw this show and you can hear flies flying

Favor de reaccionar a "Ti Amo Cosi" el trío que hacen Lara Fabián, Dimash y Aida Garifulina con Igor Krutoy al piano, es imperdible 🙏🏻

This was Absolutely Incredible! Saw her in concert a couple years ago, SENSATIONAL! If you ever get the chance to see her live do so! Now would LOVE you to do the full concert from Morrisette…. Phoenix: Morrisette’s 10th Anniversary Digital Comcert. It’s in 5 parts on her page.

Please react to both video (official and live) of Lara singing par amour. I promise you Richard you will cry. Get your tissues ready if you decide to react to them

@@danielakeller7532 yup.. And her song, "Voce" written from Cristiano Cremonini and Fio Zanotti was even a lovely song... But italians unfortunately are like this and that's why great singer don't go to Sanremo anymore or even never have been... Even her audio set was terrible... Long time ago we were appreciating real singers... Now they just want trash show and trash músic... And Lara loves Italy so much... She is even living here in Sicily at the moment with her husband.. But she doesn't want to perform here.. She is performing everywhere in the world but not in here🙄. And that's such a pity, because I can tell you that a lot of people here loves her. When I want to see here live I have to go abroad... I was in Prague last April, I will be on Bucharest September 14th and in Paris December 7th 2025... It's a nonsense that people cannot admire her in Italy cause some dumb festival director and deaf journalists.. If u pay attention to who did win Sanremo in the last 15 years I'd say... Songs are terrible.. That's our reality unfortunately 😢

Lara is a director of the Star Académie in Quebec. You have to see her MasterClass

comment peut-on être de si belles personnes et partir un jour trop tôt

Why France didn't choose Lara Fabian to open the Olympic Games in Paris It's incomprehensible!

Hi guys from Canada. I rank this concert (which I have now seen about a baker's dozen times) with From Lara With Love. Now you have to re-apply your expertise and enthusiasm to Lara's Pure, Un Regard 9 and 1/15/2012 Showcase concerts (the last of which can only be seen a song-or-two at a time because there is no overall full concert video. It has the most heart-wrenching version of Pas-sans-toi - Not Without You). Trust me....the 66 year old Lara superfan from Toronto.

Je rajouterais que la version de starmania en français est meilleurs ❤❤❤

Great comments as always ! "Comme ils disent" was written by Charles Aznavour. He made an english version called "What makes a man" findable on YT, you'll see the differences in translation between Fr/Eng. For the duet with Johnny, just EPIC ! And if that can seem a bit over acted don(t forget they were in a stadium with 80 000 pers.

Yes! Yes! Celine was more nasal 😊that is why i love Lara more ( sorry😢) my fav from Celine & Lara is Lara for all my life❤

Love Lara Love from Hong Kong❤❤❤21-07-2024

The difference between lara and the other female artists is that you never see lara come on stage half naked with satanic connotations like all the other female artists seem to do every time they perform , that's how classy she is from the rest .

Обожаю Лару. Привет из Казахстана🇰🇿

PLEASE DON’T FORGET PTX! I miss your Pentatonix reactions!!🙏♥️

Starmania existe en anglais 👍👍👍

Next time: Lara Fabian Live. From her Nue tour in 2001.

35mn’ she was saying in italian the translation of the French male voice.

Have you listen to her singing in russian. The song is wahou. It was in her période when France dienies her

Greetings. I subscribed in your channel today. First of all forgive me for my english (and for the crazy automatic corrector too). I'm brazilian ( therefore my mother language is portuguese). I knew your channel 'cause I saw a reaction to Lara Fabian and I like a more technical reactions ( like yours). I love music since I was very, very young. My parents loved music (and still love music in Heaven) and had (have) wonderful voices. I like to sing (some say that I'm a baritenor - my neighbours may say a bariterror, rsrsrs). You're are very kind and smart. My professional area is in medical field. I' an old (chrononogicaly) man. Please try to see the videos of Lara Fabian video album Mademoiselle Zhivago and ,if possible, comment the theatrical tracks Lou and Llora. I love classical and popular music and I can assume you you'll like those ones. Ask Eric Sicard. Now I have a phone call to answer. Excuse me. God bless you both.
