Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at for the first time ever "Un Peu Plus Haut, Un Peu Plus Loin." PATREON request said I should take a look at these three stars: Jean-Pierre Ferland, Céline Dion and Ginette Reno sing this song. Stunning and very emotional, I had to take a break midway, see if I got to finish this reaction!

Hi all thanks for watching, and your comments. I have a new reaction with Ginette here: ua-cam.com/video/OkhpcbBJQyY/v-deo.html
If you like this version of "un peu plus haut" you have to watch this one when she was younger live on Mount Royal Mountain. Its simply a chef d'oeuvre!!! You'll thank me later. Shivers down the spine assured

This song was written by Jean-Pierre Ferland in 1967 or 69 and its about a love rupture. He wrote that in a hotel room in Paris while beeing completely demolished emotionally. He calls it an Hymn to hope. Gave that song to Ginette Reno and the rest is history
@@carlbernaquez3449 It's also about climbing - in position, in fame, climbing so far up that you leave the ones you love behind, going where they cannot follow... and being all alone on top, afraid of falling down if you try to reach for them, while at the same time, being so awestruck by what you've achieved! All alone at the top, seeing the wonders of the world, not wanting to let it go, but losing what you love for it. Being an international star, constantly touring around the (francophone) world, adored by thousand of women, did not help Jean-Pierre to keep his long-distance relationship alive.
Love see your reaction Dereck... she is our grandmother singer here. Maybe one day you should see her in real :)
C’est tellement rare de voir des gens réagir à des artistes québécois. Je ne peux pas m’empêcher d’être fière ☺️
Même chose pour moi. La dose de fierté qui m'envahis présentement....ouf ❤️🔥
Effectivement. Nous pouvons être fières. Deux beaux talents de chez nous!!!
@@linelocas1832 Trois... quand même, trois!
OUIII tellement! Ce show là c'est le dernier que j'ai vue qui fait vibré le monde!!!❤ Céline et Ginette!? Eien de mieux à ce jour ! 2024 🙋♀️
Celine was emotional becaus Jeau-Piere ferlant , was done for a while, and Ginette...Omg ...Ginette
This was part of a Celine Dion show for the 400th anniversary of Quebec City. As part of her show, she did several duets with several important Quebec singers, probably none more important than Jean-Pierre and Ginette. As others have mentioned, Jean-Pierre wrote the song. It was Ginette's song. This is Ginette's son. (That's why everything shifted in her court, as you say.) Jean-Pierre also sings, but he's what is called in French a chansonnier, meaning the texts of his songs are more important than his vocal abilities (which have indeed been affected by age). PS - What you're seeing from Celine isn't sadness. It's emotion. Ginette was young Celine's idol. And this song... this song isn't about the words so much. They're about pride in being Quebecois.
Very well said Frédérique! ❤️ So much history in this song and this performance.
Ginette had everything for her, jean pierre whrote that for a show on top of mount Royal the sky broke open, it’s a song talking about someone going up to heaven and not able to come back, it’s a sad song, but a great song, she could have had a carer like celine with rené Angelil, but she was stuck with lovers that took adventage on her and i think she had a kid too at the moment, so she pass on the international career, but she sang all her life she is like our diamant only for us… sadly you wont be able to listen all jean pierre ferland repertoire, but it’s incredebly rich and soo great !
@@alliedseawindvoilier2394 You are right, René Angélil wanted to give Ginette Reno a singing career as the one Céline Dion has, but Ginette did not have the freedom to do it. Ginette Reno has the voice and the talent fairly equal to Celine's.
Si bien dit. Bravo! D'une compatriote Montréalaise
Ouf. J'aurais pas mieux dit! Merci ❤
I am a metal fan but this song hit me every time. Crisse que c’est beau! 👌🥺
yeah this it not even my kind of music , but for what it represent it's like just perfection , even if it isn't perfect , it still perfection , hard to believe this can be .
Big j'ai 36 ans , tu me verais la face jamais tu croirais que je pleure en écoutant sa . c'est inimaginable ... lol , men même moi j'en reviens pas , that's not acting either a fais une viédo la deçu , un autre vidéo réaction , et le gars pleure comme un bébé pis y'arrête pas de ce demandé pourquoi il pleure , c'est drole a voir . il comprends rien de ce qu'elle disent mais sa le frappe et ce qu'il dit est tellement on point avec la toune c'est comme si il était capable de comprendre la valeur émotionnel des son qu'il entend .
Ma mère est fan de Ginette, je l’ai toujours trouver excellente, le delivery de la chanson dans les années ‘70 est parfait, mais elle est comme du vin, elle s’améliore en vieillissant, elle vient me chercher encore plus aujourd’hui, probablement la maturité qu’elle prend avec les années, mais fuck qu’elle est bonne🫶
Mon reve musical, c'est de faire chanter du metal a Ginette Reno.
Hahaha ouais bdv
Oui très beau
Ginette is an absolute legend here in quebec ! Everybody knows her, she's just insanely good !!!
Des frisons sur ma peau et mes oreilles. Ouf l’émotion intense. I’m in love
TELLEMENT!
Everybody love Ginette 😁😁❤️❤️❤️ If you’re in Quebec you can’t hate her ..
she’s an angel ❤️
She's the best.
@@sandramorin-carpentier5324 Ginette est tellement une belle personne. Et un talent de malade.
Ginette Reno est l’une des plus grandes interprètes au monde.
C'est vrai, je recherche une chanson d'elle des année 8 où ça parle d'une rupture amoureuse. J'étais petite mais j'étais en extase devant cette chanson et son émotion en la chantant. Merci de me répondre...
@@TRISTANA2210 Rechercher le titre {ne m’en veux pas}
bien au dessus de Celine que j'adore malgré tout
@@valerieethier7081 c'est un secret de polichinelle . Comme j'ai dit plus haut , Céline c'est notre star internationnal , mais Ginette c'est notre diamant , notre secret . c'est elle qui a ouvert le chemin a Céline . je n'enlève rien a Céline , elle a fais le chemin , je dit juste que Ginette a été très importante dans l'inspiration de grandeur de René et Céline .
OMG, never saw this, I'm blown away! This was out of this world.. I don't know why the music industry only supports young artists. They should watch this video to see what the people really love...
It's incredible 😍
This song was written for this women… 45 years ago its one of her main song… celine husband.. renee.. wanted her to become the next world star but she didnt have the guts
@@DereckReacts this was in 2008 for the 400 years celebrations of Quebec city ( province of Québec Canada) on the Abraham plains.
@@DereckReacts tu vas avoir beaucoup de fan du Québec maintenant
Ta réaction 😘 c'est beau te voir ému
Je suis tjrs ému moi aussi Jean-Pierre Ferland est une légende aussi (album jaune )
Merci de nous faire connaître nous les québécois français ♥️
@@guillaumelazure171 it's not that she didn't have the guts, it's because she was fat. Hollywood didn't want fat. That's why
When Ginette Reno was young, a manager named René Angelil want to offer to Ginette an international carrier. Madame Reno renounced to it for personal reasons. As you know, René Angelil realized his dream later with Céline Dion. Ginette and Céline are both Québec singers. And Jean-Pierre wrote beautiful songs. Your reaction is so beautiful ❤️
Yes indeed :) And the fact that they sang this song together is very meaningful because, this is how I see it, Celine went to the top internationally and Ginette could had gone the same but chose another path. Maybe your video will spread her talent and love around the world!
Ginette walk, so Céline could run!
Yess !!! I'm glad someone come up with that explanation 🙌 This is so much more meaningful when you know that story!
Rewatching this... and thinking, when you first hear Ginette's voice and say:"I like her voice."... thinking "oh sweet summer child, you have NO idea how truly powerful her voice is, in so many way."
Ginette. Our greatest singer.
her 1975 prestation of the same song is out of this world
@@jblb9656I was there. Mesmerizing! Dion's voice is very nasal, borderline annoying. Reno's voice is warm and powerful.
@@lenom1289 i totally agree, altough nowadays i find Ginette voices got Too Much tremolo but still less annoying than Céline.Sadly i wasnt born in 1975 but wouldve love to see her live
For Jean-Pierre Ferland, it was a dream come true! Ginette Reno and Céline Dion in a duet it's once in a lifetime! I could'n be happier to be a " Québécoise "!!!
So proud to be québécois and see such a reaction to some of our most beloved artists. Cried so hard the first time I saw this. Epic reaction for an epic performance. Thank you se much Dereck for brigning French music into your channel, forever grateful.
⚜️
Moi aussi!! ❤
Je pleure à chaque fois 😌
I’m not quebecois (from nfld) but am so proud that QB is part of Canadian culture en masse
This proves that music is truly an international language if you were caught by emotions (even is french is not familiar to you). The powerful Ginette brought
tears to my eyes even thought I heard this song many times. it’s probably one of the best written by JP Ferland. (salutations aux artistes du Québec/greetings
to Quebec artists)
Me too time and time again that song with those 2 always brings me tears to my eyes 🥲🥲
Omg Yes! Way too powerful
@@DereckReacts if i could give you a little gift here’s a song that you will recognize it’s Ginette Reno and Lionel Ritchie singing hello together and you will see how much Ritchie is impressed by the monstrous powerful voice of Ginette Reno of course already knew her by reputation but to sing with her he went bananas on Ginette voice Rene angelil is there as a coach for star ⭐️ academy a show to discover new talent here’s the video maybe you will react to it who knows 😁🤷♂️ua-cam.com/video/ZDqlbHvNc8I/v-deo.html
@@DereckReacts here’s Ginette Reno at the prime of her career singing her biggest song ever it holds the record for best selling single of all times in French Canada and way later came along Celine to beat that record you will see now with this performance why Celine is in aaaaaaawww when she finally had the chance to sing with Ginette her ultimate idol here’s the video you will see at the end that Ginette will sing without a mic that how much a monstrous powerful voice that she add back then 🥰👌ua-cam.com/video/cB7Jp3Dt0U8/v-deo.html
Les voix de ces artistes emerveillent tout mélomanes. La qualité et l'émotion de la francophonie au nord du continent américain.
Ginette is such an amazing singer.
I suggest you listen to her song
"Je ne suis qu'une chanson"
Pure emotion too
Yes I agree Je ne suis qu'une chanson sungby Ginette Reno is a must
Quelle bonne suggestion!
I second that. You have to do "Je ne suis qu'une chanson" - live is even better.
True. «Je ne suis qu'une chanson» means I'm nothing but a song. It is probably Madame Reno's biggest hit.
That’s the one for sure!!
Certainly one of the best (if it is note Best) live-performance ever - The best thing’s it’s totally in French showing unbelievable Québec people that French language is really and still an international language that can carry meaningful emotions an ever more to everyone in the world 🌎! Je me souviens ⚜️
Et Voilà, même malgré la barrière de la langue, la grande Ginette réussit à toucher aux larmes ce monsieur Dereck visiblement très sensible! Bravo Jean-Pierre pour cette chanson extraordinaire. Merci à nos grandes chanteuses québécoises!!
Je pleure moi aussi dès que j'écoute cette chanson qui me parle car on a toutes et tous perdu quelqu'un de très proche, qu'on aime et en écoutant cette chanson parlant de celui/celle qui reste et de celui/celle qui part, ça nous évoque des souvenirs tristes. C'est déchirant et toute cette douleur revient... Cette chanson est interprétée si intensément... C'est incroyable. Même sans connaître notre langue Dereck, vous êtes touchés de ce qui ce dégage d'elle... La musique est universelle. Merci de l'avoir fait écouter... ❤️
"Ceux qui s'en vont, ceux qui nous laissent" décrit cela merveilleusement. Impossible de rester insensible...
There is a big emotional story also between Celine and Ginette. Because at first it was Ginette who was René Angélil’s protégé, she had the voice to go international and this was Angélil’s project to do so but Ginette didn’t want to and decided to pursue her career in Quebec , Canada leaving Angélil with his international dream without an Artist to pursue his ambitions. After that he couldn’t find a singer like Ginette, he was loosing everything until he met Celine when she was 13 years old, then he figured out he had the possibility to pursue his dream with Celine. On her side Celine wanted to be an international artist…. The rest is history.
This is what exactly I was going to write to you, Dereck. That explains the big emotional moment for the public, around the minute 5 of this video. An historical moment about 2 diffrent singers' destiny.
Ginette went to USA, but as she did not have the body of a skinny model, ''they'' wanted her to loose weight. She said ''No thank you.''
The song, to me, has always been about someone wanting more, wanting to be bigger, wanting fame and fortune and leaving a most cherished one behind in the process. She wants to climb higher, go further. She says let go of my arm but keep hold of my hand. Then later, without meaning to, she's the one to let go of the hand. She cries out 'Look, I'm so high, it's beautiful''. I love you, I'll come back to you, if I can climb back down without falling. I still love you but I don't see you anymore, I'm too high, you're too low.
Yes, it's the meaning I always heard and since I am old 🙂 I heard the song when it was first recorded by Jean-Pierre Ferland. The singer becomes a star and has to leave his/her lover to climb on top.
Ginette makes me cry every time she sings. Her voice is so powerful, her soul shows.
Je pleure à chaque fois aussi.
Merci de nous avoir fait revivre ce duo inoubliable de Céline et Mme ginette reno...quelle émotion à chaque fois
I was there Dereck! I remember seeing this live like it was yesterday and it was truly moving. As a 24 year old metal head at the time, the only reason I was there was to accompany my mother to her Celine Dion concert as a kind gesture. I was absolutely taken by surprise by how moved I was when they played this song so I completely get your reaction. This was in 2008 during the 400th anniversary celebrations of Québec City. You should come visit sometime. Cheers buddy!
I read somewhere on some Quebec stars magazine that one of guilty pleasure of Ginette Reno is once on vacation down south, she goes to karaoke bar where she is obviously mostly unknown, pick some songs and start singing. I can just imagine people faces in the place when she push the notes. That should be epic.
That's hilarious!
I would love to see Thatcher!
I didin’t know the song but it devastated me. At some point I become so emotional I can’t even see the screen.
Beautiful discover. Thank you.
Je suis française et je trouve déplorable qu'en France nous connaissions si peu les grands artistes Québéquois. Seuls les plus médiatisés, ou bien ceux qui ont eu une carrière en Europe sont connus, comme Céline Dion, Garou ... Pourtant ils défendent si bien notre belle langue avec de beaux textes et beaucoup d'émotions.
Il y a un chanteur appelé Sylvain Cossette, il a une voix sublime!
@@mitsuomits9077 Suite à ton commentaire, j'ai écouté ce chanteur : Sylvain Cossette. Personnellement, il ne m'a pas émue par sa voix, je n'ai pas trouvé sa voix SI sublime ! il y en a tant qui chante aussi bien que lui. Bref, il chante bien, sans plus et musicalement c'est trés basique. Maintenant je reconnais que ses textes sont bien écrits. Merci pour la découverte. Ceci est juste mon opinion en fonction de mes goûts, ne m'en tiens pas rigueur.
Mario Pelchat, Claude Dubois, Charlotte Cardin, Marie-Denise Pelletier et Bruno Pelletier sont aussi des grandes voix du Qc. ❤
Je te conseil les suivants avec titre. Luc De Larochellière-Si fragile. Richard Séguin- Rester debout. Vilain pingouin- Sous la pluie. Fred Pellerin- Chanson du camionneur. Bonne écoute 🤗
Merci! ❤
This moment was quite special and emotional... This concert was for the 400'th anniversary of Quebec City. 400 000 people were there. Ginette Reno is the first signer René Angelil, who became later the husband of Celine Dion, was manager for. Ginette had a wonderful career, but choosed to continue signing in french and not pursue a carreer in English, in USA. So René Angelil began to manage the carreer of Celine and the rest of the story is well known. This moment is the reunion of those 2 marvelous women. Ginette is really loved in the Province of Quebec. Her presence at this show was a total surprise, so you can now understand why her persence made people so happy. A warm "hello" from one of your follower from Quebec City, Canada. (Sorry if I did some English mistakes, for I'm french speaking person and don't write often in English)
C' est très bien expliqué, merci! Moi aussi j'ai tenté de le faire, mais c' est plus difficile d' être nuancée lorsque j'utilise "l'anglais" pour m' exprimer.
Très belle réaction de Dereck, très très émotive! Madame Reno est une interprête québécoise d' exception et c' est merveilleux de voir tous ces commentaires positifs!!!
😊🎶
"choosed" I got a brainfreeze reading that word
I think your English is pretty good.
C'était pas 500 000 personne ?
C’est exactement là meilleur explication. Céline est en haut et Ginette a décidé de rester plus bas et même si Celine a gagnée elle a aussi perdu à un certain niveau. Les deux qui ont eu le même agent et qui ont décidé de prendre différent chemin.
Loved your reaction Man! you should do more Québec artist in the future!!
Dereck a réagi de nouveau à une chanson de Ginette Reno. C’est la chanson “Hello” que Ginette chante en duo avec Lionel Richie.

Yes, Jean-Pierre Ferland is the songwriter of “Un Peu Plus Haut, Un Peu Plus Loin”. He is a good singer but not the best male vocalist, so yes, Céline did overtaken him but she has such powerful voice.
Jean-Pierre Ferland is an awesome songwriter, he has written so many hits over all the decades of his career. He has written hits for himself first but for others too like Ginette Reno and a very young Céline Dion. He is iconic here in Québec. And he has a knack for writing those deeply emotional songs. Now, he is mostly retired (he is 87) but no one has forgotten him, far from it. Ginette Reno is still singing.
Also at his age, his voice isn’t what it used to be. That’s why he kept on announcing his retirement. He kept missing the stage so he did a few comebacks. My dad repaired some of his antique furnitures back in the 80’s-90’s and Jean-Pierre invited him to do some horseback riding. My dad declined the invitation but he still talks about how nice he was.
Ginette Reno is the Grande Dame of music in Québec. Even Céline looks up to her and is humbled next to her
Oh yes you did my Ginette ! What a woman ! She's a god in Quebec
A true légende Ginette is for sure the Queen of all singers! A wonderfull woman met her few time in Boucherville!
This song can have a lot of different interpretation, someone's passing, how life can change two people and then separate them, etc. There is also a political/nationalistic uundertone to the song, it was written during the quiet revolution here in quebec. In that decade, Quebec emancipate itself from the catholic church; schools, hospitals became public, education was made widely available and a lot of the public institutions we have today were created at that time. French-canadian became proud of their culture and their unique heritage in nord america and the english superiority over the french speaking part of the population became less and less important. So, Jean-Pierre Ferland was in a way celebrating every opportunity his people had nerver have and now had but at the same time, thinking about the fear of losing a part of ourselves in all those changes.
Hi Dereck! That was the perfect reaction I was expecting about this performance!!! I have goosebumps each time I’m hearing the finale
Oh I'm so glad, @dereckreacts you listened to this! I've watched it numerous times... I cry everytime. Ginette.... there are no words to explain how she is THE great singer in Québec. Every song she sings is incredibly moving (even the national anthem during the hockey playoffs! 😉).
I just feel that anyone who loves music must listen to her once in his/her life. So happy that you now know the emotionnal power of Ginette Reno.
Québécois singers have perfectly succeeded in mixing and synthetizing the tradition in french de "la chanson française" with good written texts and the tradition in english of the great north american voices... that made their music so beautiful, so typical, peculiar, and emotional.
Please Dereck react to a french canadian band, Les Cowboys Fringuants…..with probably their biggest hit so far, L’AMERIQUE PLEURE
yess 😎👍 the version with english translation ..
Incredible performances from Ginette Reno and Céline! Such powerful voices! And all in French! Thank you so much Dereck! xx
R.I.P. Jean-Pierre Ferland 😢🙏 cette si belle chanson que tu as écrite, à toi maintenant d’être la haut … un peu plus haut.😔🕊️
I think there is many different way to interprete the lyrics of that song. For me, it sounds like people you love can not always follow you through the course of life as sometimes, we are not at the same level of consciousness and can not make the moves and decisions we know are the best for them or vice versa. It’s about enjoying the goodness of life and learning to let go, from my point of vue 🤗
À G. Canuel: I am totally in love with your interpretation. You are correct. Merci!
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin
A little higher, a little farther
Je vais aller un peu plus loin
I'll go a little farther
Je veux voir comment c'est là-haut
I want to see what it's like up there
Garde mon bras et tiens ma main
Hold my arm and my hand
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin
A little higher, a little farther
Je vais aller encore plus loin
I'll go a little farther
Laisse mon bras, mais tiens ma main
Leave my arm but hold my hand
Je n'irai pas plus loin qu'il faut
I'll go no farther than needed
Encore un pas, encore un saut
One more step, one more leap
Une tempête et un ruisseau
A storm and a stream
Prends garde, j'ai laissé ta main
Watch out, I've let go of your hand
Attends-moi là-bas, je reviens
Wait for me over there, I'll be right back
Encore un pas, un petit pas
One more step, one small step
Encore un saut et je suis là
One more leap and I'll be there
Là-haut, si je ne tombe pas
Up there, if I don't fall
Non, j'y suis, je ne tombe pas
No, here I am, I'm not falling
C'est beau, c'est beau
It's beautiful, it's beautiful
Si tu voyais le monde au fond là-bas
If you could see the world, right down there
C'est beau, c'est beau
It's beautiful, it's beautiful
La mer plus petite que soi
The ocean, smaller than oneself
Mais tu ne la vois pas
But you can't see it
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus seule
A little higher, a little more alone
Je n'veux pas être loin toute seule
I don't want to be far all alone
Viens voir ici comme on est bien
Come see how good we feel here
Quand on est haut, oh comme on est bien
When we're up there, oh how good we feel
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin
A little higher, a little farther
Je n'peux plus te tenir la main
I can't hold your hand anymore
Dis-moi comment j'ai pu monter
Tell me how I managed to go up
Comment descendre sans tomber
And how to get down without falling
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus fort
A little higher, a little harder
Tu es trop loin, je t'aime!
You're too far, I love you!
Adieu, adieu, je reviendrai
Farewell, farewell, I'll be back
Si je redescends sans tomber
If I get back down without falling
C'est beau, c'est beau
It's beautiful, it's beautiful
Si tu voyais le monde au fond là-bas
If you could see the world, right down there
C'est beau, c'est beau
It's beautiful, it's beautiful
La mer plus petite que soi
The ocean, smaller than oneself
Mais tu ne me vois pas
But you can't see me
Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin
A little higher, a little farther
Je vais aller encore plus loin
I'll go even farther
Peut-être bien qu'un peu plus haut
Maybe a little higher up
Je trouverai d'autres chemins
I'll find other ways
c'est beau
It's beautiful
(Si tu voyais le monde au fond là-bas)
If you could see the world, right down there
Au fond, là-bas (c'est beau, c'est beau)
Right down there, (it's beautiful, it's beautiful)
(La mer plus petite que soi) The ocean, smaller than oneself
La mer plus petite que moi (c'est beau, c'est beau)
The ocean, smaller than oneself (it's beautiful, it's beautiful)
(Le monde un peu plus haut)
(the world a little higher)
C'est beau
It's beautiful

Ginette is one of best soul voices you can meet
Ce qui était une chanson d'amour blessé est devenu un hymne à l'espoir et à l'émancipation d'un peuple dans un contexte politique explosif. « Contrairement à ce que tout le monde pense, c'est une chanson de séparation, assure Ferland.
Another Quebec french band that is great is Harmonium from 1970s
The 1st one in 1975 on the Mount-Royal on St-Jean-Baptist, tears every time.
Mr. Angelil, wanted to sign Ginette Reno for an all around the world famoust singer and she said no and guess who's been the choosen one, Celine.
Ginette est la Queen de la musique francophone au Québec. C’est un des plus beaux moments que l’on a vu. Nos deux divas qui font un duo magistral .
A historic moment in Canada music Ginette Reno in her 70 s at that time just imagine her voice in her 20s my god back then one of the 3 best voices in the world 🌎 in her 20s and you can imagine his the very first idol of Celine that’s why is crying while singing and also the only time that they sang together that’s why here in Quebec a historic moment that everybody wanted to see for so long those 2 singing together Celine always said that Ginette his her idol and that performance is probably the most emotional song that Celine has done since besides the passing of her parents she sang the same day that they died monstrous powerful performance 😁👌
Ginette was 62 at this time 😉 still totally amazing
@@sharpiie9087 thanks for the correction but you will admit 62 or 70 it’s very old and long way past her prime but still slayed that song that’s how exceptional she is 🥰👌
@@lenstgelais7376 Yes it’s amazing, i feel like Ginette Reno never went out of her prime even in her 70s she sings so well and powerful!
So glad to see Quebec artists on this channel finally !! You need some more Ginette in your life ! We have so many gems in our repertoire, you have much yet to discover. Thanks, Dereck !

Jean Pierre Ferland just pass away at 89 to day. A big lost for Québec . This show was a great moment, like a family comming together …
That is very very special Derek. Thank you for finding this. Very very very special indeed❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The respect of Celine singing in a lower key than Ginette to let her shine. What an humble diva ✨
In Quebec, Ginette is as legendary as Celine. Here they are at the same level. Nobody is letting the other shine.
@@bayfactor9384 i understand your point since I live in Quebec but Celine wasn’t singing as high as Ginette because it’s Ginette’s song she is letting her her moment.
@@sharpiie9087 Maybe you are right, but I don't believe it's the case. I don't think Celine can steal the show on this song against Ginette. I read someone else writing that Celine couldn't reach the high notes because she was crying while signing, she couldn't reach her full signing potential because of that. I believe that theory too.
Ginette Reno is probably the most played artist in olympics history. She's known worldwide.
Ginette Reno sang that same song in June 1975 for Quebec's National Day on Mount Royal, Montreal. She had a 11 minutes ovation! ua-cam.com/video/90YHdWGyesk/v-deo.html
It is this historic moment that they wanted to remake with Celine in 2008 on the Plaines of Abraham.
Derek, what you just witnessed, it’s a huge moment…. I’m glad it got to you.
It's a song about ambition, ascension, and dream, but in the context of a break-up. The author, Jean-Pierre Ferland, said that it was inspired by his own life, when he broke up with a woman he loved because he wanted to pursue a carreer in France while that woman wanted to stay in Québec. It's truely one of the best song ever written in French.
@@robertmainville4881 J'avais jamais entendu cette anecdote et j'ai toujours entendu le sens sans nécessairement y attribuer une rupture. Mais merci pour le détail! Cette version est clairement une des meilleures...
When Céline sing in french she is more "posseded" and haunted by the song than in english
That's not even my kind of music but Jesus Christ. ...that was amazing 👏
You should check out Celine's "The Power of The Dream" from the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games for a little throwback in honour of Tokyo 2020! Probably one of her most legendary performances. Celine is truly one of the greatest!
THE ULTIMATE VOICE WHO EVER BIRTHED IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC :
THE MAGNIFICENT MADAME GINETTE RENO !!
Hello Dereck,sometime it's better not to say anything.I don't understand the lyric.But I hear the song,see the faces of the artists and feel What is coming across.I have to cry.I don't know why.Anyone who hears this song,can take it out for themselves what moves him!!!!!😢😢😢🐬🐬🐬
OMG jai mis cettd chanson que jai chanté lors de l'enterrement de ma petite maman elle aimait tant cette chanson de Céline Dion et Ginette Reno , ce fut un au-revoir pour moi sa fille et pour ma famille 🫶🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 je n'oublierai jamais ce dernier moment j'adore les chansons de Ginette Reno et merci d'avoir ete si ému en écoutant cela .. Derek vous m'avez bouleversé que dieu prenne soin de tous et de vos proches 🌹🌹🍀🍀🕊️🕊️ Amen
Ive always interprated it as meaning the person singing has passed and is entering heaven... she finds it beautiful, shes taking steps further and further. She wants to go as she she describes how beautiful it is but she doesnt wanna do it alone, without her partner... shes saying she will come back, if shes able to descent, without falling down
Don't shit yourself Bro, this is a very meaningful song in Quebec. It is a song about a hope, a hope that one day, we will have our own country. That's what drives those performers, that's the emotion. The original performance dates from 1975.
Hi Derek! Just so you know. Ginette is partly deaf and yet she can sing like this, she's that good of an artist. She's an icon, she's THE biggest star here. I was raised listening and signing her songs. I love that woman.
For the emotions it's
1-Ginette Reno
2- Lara Fabian
3-Celine Dion
Derek, j ai pleuré d émotion la première fois.... et les autres fois aussi
N aies pas honte de tes émotions
An another amazing singer sung this masterpiece at my dad's funeral. We all cried.
Tu est la preuve que la musique est universelle! Je suis un nouvel abonné, je viens de te découvrir avec ta réaction sur tous les cris les sos de Balavoine. bonne continuation à toi et merci
Ginette Reno et Céline Dion, deux femmes en OR. Quand j'ai vus ce duo en 2008 lors du 400 ième de la ville Québec, j'ai adoré cela. Premier duo entre c'est deux grandes dames de la musique Québécoise et Canadiennes. Soyons fiers de notre langue. Merci Dereck de nous partager cette vidéo mais aussi tes émotions.
Ginette Reno is a national treasure in Quebec
Singing in a choir beside Ginette Reno must be such a feeling.
The song is about finding his own way, self acheivement and asking help, wanting others to reach the same achievements, being afraid of going backward in life.
...the sea smaller than oneself but you don't see me...how can I get down without falling...
oooh what an amazing reaction i loooooooooove that duet !!! ginette reno's voice is so warm and full she deserved so much more recognition worldwide, of course she's THE star in quebec and an amazing artist but i wish more people could listen to her so thank you !!
I am ondering if the people in the audience had any idea they were going to witness one of the greatest live moments in music history. this moment was on par with pinkfloyd's comfortably numb from Pulse or queen at live aids...
simply incredible.
For me Ginette Reno shes the Best singner in Canada History.
What makes Ginette Renault soooo special is the fact that she can sing to perfection even though she's deaf. She can ear anything from her left ear and she rely on reading on the lips of people to understand them. That's mindblowing.
We see many Celine haterd here in Quebec but I've never came across anyone hating Ginette
Ginette >Celine
Histoires différentes, je dirais.
This is not a song about passing. It's a song about surpassing oneself. This is the allegory of climbing. The more you climb a mountain, the further you see the beauty of the world.
I was at this show on Abraham Plaines, you could not imagine how it was amazing! Everybody have a goosebumps. Even if the weather was about 30 celcius degrees. Just Wow!
This version of Ginette in 1975 I think. You should listen to it : ua-cam.com/video/90YHdWGyesk/v-deo.html
This duet is part of my favorite songs (Ginette Reno is the best Canadian french speaking singer, but Lara (Fabian) is still better than "Dion"!
Never hahahahhaha
Dereck : is it me or Celine Dion overtaking this
Ginette: Hold my beer
Ginette is a big star in Quebec, Canada. She sings with her heart and soul, always truthful to herself. She is a bundle of emotions, always. We love her.
@Dereck Reacts I'm so glad you liked it and that it touched you without understanding the meaning of the song while reacting to it ! I cried like a baby when I first saw this. It's so emotional on so many levels. Because of the meaning of the song first, and most of all because it was the first time that Céline had the chance to sing with Ginette, who was her idol when she was young, and whom René was the manager just before he became Céline's manager. So it's like the ultimate loop in Céline's career. Singing with the biggest star from Québec when she was a child, now that she is the biggest star herself, and singing with the woman that René managed before her, who, if he didn't stop manage her first, who knows what may have come to Céline's career ? That's why she can't help crying during the song. So so touching...
Well said! Thanks!
C' est très bien résumé! Merci!
C' est très émouvant de voir autant de commentaires positifs pour cette interprêtation magistrale! 😊
What are they singing I'm clueless LOL - but Wow!!! Celine as always with her amazing voice- and Ginette I've never heard her but she can also sing... Wow!!!
You might want to check out this version from 1975 played at the Quebec National Holiday in Montreal. It ended up being a defining moment in Quebec's musical history. It is a toned down version, less orchestral where the voice is the central piece. It shows how good Ginette Reno is: ua-cam.com/video/90YHdWGyesk/v-deo.html
Yes, I was going to say the same thing, so he can see the difference in her voice in thirty years.
Same here, the original is the best version

Ginette is truly one of our national treasures here in Quebec 💕 she has the most powerful voice and sometimes sings without a mic in venues and you still hear her - this is how powerful she is! Fun fact - she is hearing impaired ! I always cry when she sings 💖
The story behind this song is that ginette renaud stole the show of a whole festival by singing it with 10 time more emotion then this in the 70's ( when Québecois started to affirm themself as a nation) and Ginette was the blueprint for celine dion. When ginette refused to go world wide, is manager took celine and applied is plan to celine and made her what she is now... genitte is the original celine dion
Je connaissais à peine Mme Reno, incapable de citer un de ses titres, j'ai cliqué quand même et là mes yeux s'embuent et mes joues se creusent douloureusement.
Ginette Reno published her first album in 1962, and she still sings at 75 years old. That is almost 60 years of career. Very few singers from the 60's are still singing today. Her voice is more powerful then Celine.
VIVE LE QUÉBEC ! ! !
English below. Merci de cette iniative! C'est vraiment touchant de voir autant d'émotions venant de quelqu'un qui ne connait pas notre langue ni notre culture. C'est vrai que c'est une chanson magnifique et puissante, elle me donne la chaire de poule. On a beaucoup de talents, mais Céline et Ginette sont nos plus belles perles, nos reines. Thank you for taking the effort of opening up to our French Canadian music and culture! It was very touching to witness how someone who doesn't really know us, nor understand our language can be so moved by our music. We love to describe life in our songs and are not shy to develop on our emotions. We have a lot of artistic talents, although Céline Dion and Ginette Reno are our pearls and Queens. We see how it is important for Céline to honor Ginette, of whom she is an heir in many ways. And yes it was Jean-Pierre Ferland who composed the song and who was also singing, although he never had a huge voice, so he started the song and left the space for the two queens to sing. He was in heaven, it showed. So was everyone else. And my understanding of the song is of two lovers for whom higher achievements are leaving him/her alone and is separating them, so he/she asks the other one to make a few steps higher, a jump and says that he/she will take a few steps down, hoping not to fall, but to reach a place in between where both can see each other and be together to witness the beauty that can be seen from soaring above the world and life. - I discovered today a musicologist, Dereck, truly open to diversity, whom I will have great pleasure in listening to his analysis and heartfelt discoveries. Merci! Thank you! :-)
French is the language of love
There is so much emotional feelings with french songs and singers.
that’s why it brings you to tears.
Ginette Reno is incredible!!! OMG!!! I discovered her with the song "Pourtant ma vie" sang with Roch Voisine and I was blown away. But here... OMG!!! I had to cry too!

Yeah you made the newspapers here in Quebec because of that reaction video. Congrats Dereck!
Merci d'avoir montré toute l'intensité de la voix de Ginette Reno!!! Elle sait faire passer l'émotion pour chaque chanson...mais surtout dans cette chanson qui vient m'émouvoir chaque fois que je l'écoute, Merci Dereck
in this sole video, you have a wonderful piece of the Quebec and French international music History. Jean-Pierre Ferland, one of our pillars songwriters, among Félix Leclerc, Gilles Vigneault, Claude Léveillée and some others. Céline, our most acclaimed singers around the world. and: Ginette, the true Queen, who opened the way for Céline as before her, she had René Angelil as manager and refused to sacrifice all for having the career Céline has today. 3 monuments, 3 essential parts of music, 3 huge God-given talents and eternal artists. quel bonheur et quelle fierté d'être Québécois comme eux! and Ginette, it's my very personal opinion, IS the best singer in the world.
One thing that really stands out is how powerful Ginette's voice is, even in her middle to upper age. She didn't lose any of her vocal range and the emotion of the lyrics drives her performance. It's clear that Céline stands in awe of Ginette and recognizes her talent and lingering devotée of fans. You don't have to understand the lyrics to feel the raw emotions in the song. Ginette put her all into it, even unto the last note. What a phenomenal performance by a dynamo singer.
I've been reading other commentators saying Ginette could have had an international career. She did have it. She won awards at Cannes and sang in London and on the BBC and released several English albums. She recorded an album in France: "Ce que j'ai de plus beau" which contained the hit "La Vie." The accolades are numerous. She also received the office of the Order of Canada.
This is, without question, the very definition of "international stardom." I myself first heard Ginette sing "Beautiful Second Hand Man" (1971) on the radio as a child, and even as young as I was -- she made an impression.
Her talent is and always will be on par with Céline's.
On June 24, 1975, Ginette Reno performed Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin in front of 250,000 people on Montreal's Mount Royal as part of the festivities (St-Jean-Batiste Day, our Quebec Day ). What was a wounded love song has become a hymn to hope and the emancipation of a people in an explosive political context. “Contrary to what everyone thinks, it's a song of separation, assures Ferland. There is therefore a whole socio-political context of the time that is extremely important. The rise of the Parti Québécois with the objective of separating Quebec. The interpretation with Celine Dion remains just as touching and makes a connection with the fact that Ginette Reno has already had the same manager as Celine Dion, but unlike Celine Dion who has become an artist known throughout the world, Ginette who will have chosen not to go a little higher, a little further... Their interpretation remains masterful and gives a whole new meaning. Céline Dion struggling to hold back these tears. The text of this song, although simple, remains extremely powerful and full of meaning and will have been the hymn of an entire era in Quebec.
Jean-Pierre Ferland is 87 years old and Ginette Reno is 75 years old. Ginette is one if not the greatest singer we have. This song was first interpreted by Ginette and Jean-Pierre in the late 60's. You must try 'ceux qui s'en vont, ceux qui nous laisse" by Ginette Reno.
Une belle découverte merci. J'adore la mise en scène, avec le papy, la mamie (regrettée) et la fille. Effectivement je pense que Céline 'overtake' quand elle est avec Jean Pierre. J ai adoré les voix de Jean Pierre et Ginette, je les découvre tous les 2. Et Dereck, nice reaction!
Regrettée? Ginette Reno est toujours de ce monde et elle chante encore.
Les trois sont tjrs de ce monde
Je pense que Céline ''overtake'' au début, parce qu'elle ''monte la table'' pour la suite avec Ginette! Si non, la marche du début vs le reste de la chanson aurait été trop haute!!!! C'est ce que je pense. en bout de ligne, elle fait la bonne chose! On le comprend plus tard!
No she is not overtaking him it's her voice and he actually wrote it for Ginette who is for those who don't know Ginette is the greatest French female singer of all time and as for Celine, well she needs no introduction. What you saw is the greatest French duet between the two greatest Female French singers of all time. Celine broke down because she got to sing with her idol which says a lot !
I’m from Quebec and soooo very happy you reacted to this magical song! Mr. Ferland is getting older…. Ginette Reno is by far one on my favorite signer of all time! And our Céline Dion still impressive as always. Thank you for sharing this song and your reaction. I was crying… always cry when I hear it! ❤️ from Quebec
Incroyables nos cousins du QUEBEC.Génial!👍🇫🇷
Un moment plus que parfait entre deux grandes femmes du Québec ❤
you have all my respect Derek, thank you for your great sensitivity, you have a heart of gold!
