Dan, I hesitate to do this publicly, but my generation struggles with even basic technology. Our story goes as follows. There are close to 30 of us that live in remote mountain valleys in western North Carolina USA, that age between 65-96. Approximately every month at full moon we hike up 2,000 ft above our valley floor to reach Ferguson Peak, old Cherokee land. It’s here we drum, most playing West African drums & wait for answering drums from the group on the mountain ridge north. Because of our ages, old creaky joints & Covid some lost motivation to do this, as you would say “ Epic”; undertaking I decided music on the difficult ascent up the mountain might help. This is where you come in! So I thank you for Stairway to Heaven ( gets the 60’s group up the mountain) The Witcher Songs, which nobody knows what the hell that is but it gets 70 yr old rear ends up the trail,and many of your other works that make us rejoice, laugh & enjoy as we ascend. You are young, not yet tethered by old age, but your work inspires a generation that you may have not considered. Believe me when I say, after close to a century on this earth, every day is EPIC. Your work is more valuable than you know......... haha besides even us old ladies think your cute.
Everyone needs music to "whistle" to while they work and Dan is great motivator. He is the best cover guy on UA-cam apart from Caleb Hyles, in my opinion. Don't be ashamed of sharing your story; it motivated me! Hopefully stories of kickass seniors like you will inspire the under 30 crowd (like me) to get off our asses and move. We don't wanna be outworked. LOL!
WOW!!! So perfectly done even the video. Write down to the woman that he chose to sing with him has anyone else taken notice that she has green eyes. This is done just so perfectly right down to the last detail❤❤❤
Dan Vasc is the Phantom of the Opera. Gerrard Butler was really good and many of us fell in love until HE came along and threw my entire life into a spin. The Phantom is as sinister a character as he is a very romantic one. I don't know why that combination is so enchanting except that Dan manages to embody it to absolute perfection and once again, I am breathless and in awe of the power the gentleman possesses to completely captivate.
Fun fact: The version with Gerard Butler took longer because not only did Gerard take lessons to actually sing but the actress who played Christine (whose name I can never remember) was actually a trained opera soprano and they wanted that so as to capture the original play to the fullest extent.
O M G , you’ve given me chills. Your voice, so strong, so sensual, such range. This has been a favorite movie of mine for years, & you’ve just reawaken my passion for it. Thank you
This is the best cover of this song I’ve ever heard. You have a great voice, and the person you collaborated with sounds great too. All in all, this is a Phantom of the Opera cover done right. You definitely would have made Andrew Lloyd Webber proud.
Karel Markvart Well Its your opinion. I dont think you can replace the energy of a live show. Phantom Of the Opera is a LIVE song performance. But this guys where good no discredit needed.
The role of the phantom is most befitting Dan; with his masterful, awe-strucking and yet no less badass voice; all the more in conjuction with his slick, smooth looks, acting and demeanor! A true diamond of a talented artist!
Absolutely. She owned this song. I can't hear anyone else singing this besides Dan and Dragica. They are perfect and should have originally done this on Broadway.
That was AMAZING Dan! And the beautiful 😍 young lady who sang the duet with you was incredible as well. Thank you both so much. Love from Amanda in Australia ❤️
Oh dammmmnnn...!!! :D This is fucking good. My favourite part is when he first sings "Sing my angel of music". What he does with his voice there is exactly the kind I like. And she is just amazing of course. Such a perfect soprano, wow...
OUTSTANDING!. Your duet is very moving>. Dragica and Dan, you two are very beautiful. Dan, you can do it all: Puccini, heavy metal, love songs, and Witcher songs!
Same here!! I'm 71 and I think I'm in LOVE!! This man is exquisite in looks, voice, and his ability to bring true emotion to what ever lyrics he sings! He makes you FEEL it ! And he has a sweet personality on top of all that!!😍
The Sarah Brightman and Micheal Crawford version of Phantom of the Opera was such a huge part of my childhood that it remains as one of my all time favorites. With that being said, you and Dragica completely hit this one out of the park! Both of your vocals were absolutely fantastic and Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone!
Im awestruck 😮Bravo!!! I’ve listening to all your content because I’m an eclectic in music listener and so you have never failed to knock my socks off! Again bravo to you Sir !🙏
Was just always looking for that perfect style of music. Saw a cover of "The Song Of The White Wolf". My life has been changed since. The music helps so much with the demons of mental health daily. Thank you!
I've heard quite a few versions, be it musicals or movies, but your version is wonderful and my personal favorite anyway. Also Dragica is awesome. An epic masterpiece.
Many years ago, I had the immense honor to see Michael Crawford perform his iconic role as Phantom. As a metalhead, it always makes me happy that this song lives on through our community.
I think I've died and gone to heaven! Oh, no, wait. I still have shivers running up and down my back and the hair on the back of my neck is standing on end!
Love all the songs in the phantom of the opera went to see it in New York and you and the girl sound just like the singers excellent voices excellent play to
You have quite the range both in your voice and song selection. I don't know what is better. Your bass or your tenor! My husband was listening and I said to him, "This guy could sing Opera". Keep up the hard work. I can tell a difference in your posture and vocal power between the older videos and newer ones. I'm not just talking about vocal training. Your work in the weight room helps too. I can tell you have been working on your core muscles. - just a music appreciator
I actually love the cooperation there is among the community of artists who perform covers like this on youtube, neat cover, I also enjoyed the cover you did with skar for misty mountains, keep it real brother! nice work!
The song was absolutely great! But tbh, hearing your positive voice in the end of the video made my day. I had a really really bad day and u put some light into it :)
It's been an honor and a pleasure!
also, you've pronounced my name PERFECTLY!
Haha I'm glad I didn't butcher it! My pleasure and honor ^_^
amazin voice!!
U are so beautiful and talented, Dragica :)
And it's really looked like Nightwish's voices. Both.
you are amazing!
If Dan Vask would be willing to cover the whole opera, I would pay for it
Oh yes! At least cover Music of the night 🥰🥰🥰
I would so pay money for that..
@@ann-sofiehansson4167 Music of the Night was covered three years ago 🐰
Can we have a theater performance?!?
it's a musical, not an opera but I agree!

Haha great comment. It’s no hiking up a mountain but Dan’s music gets me through a pile of dirty dishes :)

Dragica's voice is absolutely lovely. Dan sounds epic as usual, no surprise.
I came for "The Witcher" covers.... 10 songs later and I'm just in aw.
ME TOO
Did the exact same thing!
Came for the Witcher Cover and later also came for The Phantom... and realized it's the same guy
@@geri121 Phantom was awesome.
Yes, ditto! It's been awesome watching his subs climb from just around 85k a couple weeks ago, to over 200k now.
WOW!!! So perfectly done even the video. Write down to the woman that he chose to sing with him has anyone else taken notice that she has green eyes. This is done just so perfectly right down to the last detail❤❤❤
I’m over a over 70 Grandmother and I’m amazed with your many talents in singing all of my favorite songs‼️💕

Her name is Emmy Rossum. Fun fact she also plays Fiona Gallagher on Shameless
That first "Sing my angel of music" was a total blast.
You should do "Point of no return" you're amazing both of you!!!
They would be amazing for it!! 😍😍
Georgiaaa B. So here for that!!
Yeap
Agree
Absolutely.
MAGICAL! Your duet is very, very moving. You two are very beautiful. PERFECTION!

Adam Frishwasser NIGHT WISH did the cover and honestly that version brought me to a different world.
Better than Ramin Karimloo and Sierra Bogges?
@@nordicblood8470 Nightwish were really good, but Holyhell with Eric Adams singing Phantom parts were better ;)
Karel Markvart Well Its your opinion. I dont think you can replace the energy of a live show. Phantom Of the Opera is a LIVE song performance. But this guys where good no discredit needed.
Yeap
Powerful vocals this is incredible combination of two awesome singers to gather.. singing incredible opera love it ❤
MY GOD THIS PAIRING FOR THIS SONG IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMINAL
This is mind blowingly beautiful ❤
it is a crime that this video has only 14K likes. It deserves 10M. Amazing
The role of the phantom is most befitting Dan; with his masterful, awe-strucking and yet no less badass voice; all the more in conjuction with his slick, smooth looks, acting and demeanor! A true diamond of a talented artist!
How does she only have 5K subscribers? She's absolutely amazing. She killed Tarja's part in this song.
aw, thank you
Absolutely. She owned this song. I can't hear anyone else singing this besides Dan and Dragica. They are perfect and should have originally done this on Broadway.

No regrets!
Wow! Can we get more duets between Dan and Dragica? Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tarja Turunen would both be proud!
Dragica would make Tarja Soile Susanna Turunen-Cabuli proud. Phenomenal job to both of you and thanks for the shivers
That was fabulous

If there is ever a resurgence of Phantom these two should play Phantom and Christine! 👏👏👏👏
