She is the Top Female vocaliste in the world, major star in Europe, speaks fluently 4 languages, (Italian, French, English, Spanish) also Russian and Portugese. More than 30millions album sold world wide and almost unknown in the USA, i will let others explain her story, she is now 53 yo and just finished a world Tour in 2022. You now have the Lara-virus, no vaccin, no medication,she sings from her soul to yours....
The last note 17 seconds long Unbelievable performance. Lara goes into character and performs is astonishing. And it takes her a little bit to snap back into reality. And Sophi your voice is beautiful to. Would love to here you sing a whole song Great Reaction Stay Safe ❤️❤️❤️
Perhaps not THE perfection but closer to perfection than no one else will ever be. When this lady sings (anywhere she goes) I cry and I'm a 70 yo musician. Since the very first times she started to be visible on french TV, I fell in love with that great voice and this so big heart she has! Bravo madame Crokaert!
It's amazing that she can actually go to this level of emotion, on the very brink of crying by the sound of her shivering breaths, and still be able to sing. It's hard just to speak properly. But that's what she does. Absolutely connect with emotion and then project that in song.
Lara est une grande Dame de la chanson qui est aimer et très respecté de son public. Que ce soit au Japon, en Europe, à Moscou, ses fans l’acclament et en redemande tout le temps, ses shows sont toujours à guichet fermer. Nous sommes dans la salle et nous nous empreignons, du charisme exceptionnelle de cette grande chanteuse. On en veut encore, encore et encore, que ce soit, Je Suis Malade, Adagio, Je t'Aime, peu importe la chanson qu'elle interprète, c'est Magique car chaque intonation, chaque soupir, chaque regard qu'elle envoie au public est honnête et franc. Nous l'écoutons avec toute notre attention et sa voix nous atteint jusqu'au plus profond de notre Âme. L'atmosphère est à son plus haut niveau, nous nous enivrons de tout l'Amour qu'elle dégage, cela se ressent dans tout l’amphithéâtre et dans chaque être humain présent.
Une des plus belles chansons française de tous les temps, peut être même la plus belle. Des frissons à chaque fois même en l'écoutant plusieurs fois d'affilées... ! Un chef d'œuvre émotionnel
A great reaction! I was afraid you'd be somewhat prepared by hearing other covers and stuff by her before. But this performance truly is her tour the force, and worthy of every praise imaginable.
You said it all, " I wouldn't know how life would be without knowing this performance". Unbelievable...I feel exactly as you do and you express how taken you are with every aspect, so well. Thanks from Canada.
For years this is one of my favorite songs, it hits you in de face every time you listen to it.... It makes me shiver and cry, stop talking about techniek, it's one of the most impressive love songs ever.
Lara IS/becomes the story. This is why her performance is so captivating drawing your in, immersing in the pains and emotions. I must thank Dimash for properly (re-) introducing her to the world. APPARENTLY she's been like the underdog in Canada where she became, like, banned from the Canadian / US music scene. Hence she turned her attention to Europe, Russia... After witnessing a performance like this, it makes perfect sense why Dimash got smashed by her. LARA has become personal Queen of vocalists and I go further by saying that SHE REIGNS SUPREME. I love your killer reaction. ❤
Quelle magnifique interpretation emouvante. Elle me donne la chair de poule a chaque fois que je vois cette video. Lara est, a mon avis, la meilleure interprete au monde. Elle a une voix superbe.
Bravo pour ton Français. C'est rare et ça fait plaisir. La musique de "je suis malade" a été ecrite en 1973 par Alice Dona et les paroles par Serge Lama qui a l' interprété de façon magistrale. Je vous invite à écouter sa version. Sa voix puissante, son emotion est à la hauteur de la version de Lara Fabian qui est sans conteste l'une des plus belles versions de ce chef d'œuvre de la chanson française. Merci à Dimash pour vous avoir fait connaître Lara Fabian moitié Belge moitié italienne vivant au Canada et ayant depuis longtemps un succès incontestable en France. Merci aussi à Dimash de vous avoir fait connaitre la chanson Française en vous faisant connaître Lara Fabian et en interprétant moins bien cela dit que Daniel Balavoine SOS d'un terrien en détresse ce magnifique chef d'œuvre de Michel Berger
BRAVO! I looked a so many reactions to this performance and you are the only one that saw that "she went somewhere and had to come back from..." And then you can see she realised what just happened...
Yes! Here Lara Fabian sang to the fullest. Although I don’t know French, even I have tears in my eyes from her performance.😪 Great react, love your react ❤️
Lara Fabian is Belgian but she lives in Canada (so she has this second nationality). There is also a magnific duet that she sings with an another unbelievable singer (Maurane who is also Belgian, there were friends). The song is called: ''Tu es mon autre''. If you want to hear it just for you, for your curiosity, please listen it and read a translation lyrics to understand the song. If I can also recommand you to listen a song with only Maurane (who has a magnificient velvet and warm voice) there is: ''Sur un prélude de Bach'' and '' Ca casse'' (there is also ''La complainte de la serveuse automate'' from the musical comedy Starmania). She was an incredible singer who has song with Céline Dion, Lara Fabian. She is recognized for having one of the most beautiful voices in french countries like these woman. Thanks for people who will listen these songs and for your curiosity :)
I absolutely love this performance. Her ability to emote and tell a story is beyond compare. I know a little French, but this is out of my range. Still, every time I watch her, all I want to do is wrap my arms around her and just hold her. The one thing that almost everyone misses is that until she covers her mouth at the end, she is STILL in character... That may be part of the performance, but it strikes me a an authentic moment of... WOW, what did I just do? Sofie, I adore your reactions, keep them coming.
My favorite reaction to this incredible performance! You were really feeling Lara's emotions at 6:35! Such a powerful performance and a great reaction! Love you!! ❤️
Lara is born in belgium from a belgian father and an italian mother. She lived in belgium until she decided to move to canada. Her real name is Lara Crockaert, a flemish name
Hi Sofie. So glad that you listened to this song (I had recommended this to you for some time). I discovered her this year and she has become one of my favorite singers (in addition to Morissette and So Hyang) because of her emotional impact by "living" the songs. Great reaction by you! I highly recommend: 1) Ti Amo Cosi- Lara singing with Dimash (and Aida); two of the greatest singers present today 2) Broken Vow 3) Adagio- her version inspired Dimash (Singer 2017) 4) Caruso 89,500 and counting!
Je suis malade (song) The real story of the song When the song was written, Lara Fabian was only 3 years old. Je suis malade is a song by Serge Lama, released in 1973 as a single and on the album Je suis malade. Written by Serge Lama on a music composed by Alice Dona, the song became the most emblematic title of the repertoire of Serge Lama who regularly takes it on stage 3. History The song Je suis malade was inspired by a real heartbreak of Serge Lama, the story of a long secret relationship. In 1969, the singer met Michèle Potier in Chamonix. Love was a certainty, but neither of them was free: he had married Daisy Brun, his press agent, in 1968, and she was married and had a son. They love each other in secret for several years and promise to regain their freedom, but Michèle hesitates and finally flees him and settles in Morocco for professional reasons. Lama is desperate, he wants to put words on his pain without succeeding, until the day he confides in his friend Alice Dona: "this story hurts me, it makes me sick. Back home, at the piano, Alice Dona, composes in a few hours a melody [...], that very quickly, she makes the singer listen. It was a revelation and Serge Lama wrote almost the entire text in one go. He will say later "The 80% of the song I wrote in 20 minutes, it's almost a shame [...] it came out of my heart so much that I [...] immediately felt that this song had something that the others didn't have". However, nothing is done. His record company Philips does not believe in the song and to impose it Lama threatens to leave if he is refused to record it3. He wins his case and soon Je suis malade is released as a single. Unfortunately, the radio programmers prefer the B side, the lively and cheerful song Les P'tites Femmes de Pigalle which becomes a hit6. At every opportunity, however, Lama sings Je suis malade, on television, on stage [...], recognition will come, not (in this period), through him, but from a cover by Dalida very touched by the subject of the song and whose inspired and desperate interpretation will seduce the public. After that, Serge Lama's popularity was turned upside down and he definitely became a recognized and popular singer-songwriter4. Many years later, the artist confides: "An LP of Serge Lama at the time it was worth 4000-5000 albums [...] But after Les Ballons rougesNote 1 it is 1 million4." Recognition came for the creator of Je suis malade, in 1974, when one evening on the stage of the Olympia in Paris, Serge Lama completed the song by interpreting it without a microphone a cappella in front of an audience conquered by a triumph. Another happiness, the return of Michele, free and together, they give birth to a boy named Frederic in 1981 and marry ten years later8. Michèle died in 2016 at 71 years, victim of a stroke9. Her death gives the song another dimension, Lama who has not given up singing it on stage says: "Every night when this song comes, I know it is an obstacle that must be jumped [...], it usually takes me a minute to recover [...], this song deserves to be given everything". Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
You are one of the few reactors who respond to the gesture of slicing of her throat when referring to being like a dead bird next to him as he sleeps. Bravo, for noticing and speaking to it!
The original song was written by the french singer Serge Lama and his friend Alice Dona. He is the first one to have sung it. And it is inspired by his love story.
so glad this vid popped up in my recommendations. Great reaction. It was a lot like mine when I first saw this performance. I just discovered Fabian about a month ago. I never fangirl, ever, but I totally am with her. Her technique, her tone, her emotion completely , completely, COMPLETELY blows me away everytime. Would love to see your reaction to Adagio from this same live concert. And her performance of Caruso. (And, well, everything else of hers you'd care to react to. She wrote Broken Vow and it too is a stunning performance.) Anyway, thank you. i got chills listening again, even though I've watched this many, many times over the past few weeks. Subscribed!
Originally this song superbly interpreted by Lara was written and performed by Serge Lama in 1973 and the text is the doubly autobiographical expression of the male singer-songwriter who included in this true desperate love story the unhappy feelings of his childhood.
michael cole that is true. I saw a rehearsal Video and she was very Ill. I couldn’t believe it when she started singing. These people are real pros. That’s for sure.
wow, while you were talking about Lara being "naked" on stage you were also being "naked" in your feelings about the performance---thank you for one of the best reactions I have watched.
Lara Fabian is an amazing singer. She is delicate, sensitive, feminine and have a beautiful soul. And you are very beautiful, romantic and delicate too... God bless you. 🇧🇷
Dimash is a flash in the pan . Lara is forever. She goes to a level/zone I've never seen before, and she takes me with her. Thanks for the ride Lara. Love you.
Gracias por tus magníficos comentarios y análisis sobre Lara, su voz, su arte y sensibilidad exquisita para vivir la canción y transmitirla como si estiviera viviendo esa situación en el preciso momento de cantarla
Lara Fabian is a great singer and wow she very Talented and very Beautiful looking young lady just like you Sofie . wow this is a first this is the most shock and emotional l seen from you about a singer.
ah ça y est on a enfin entendu ta voix en français ahahah. Merci pour la réaction, j'aime tellement cette chanson et puis Lara Fabian l'a merveilleusement bien chantée. Merci =)
C'est toujours un plaisir d'arriver sur une vidéo ou l'on entend du BTS dés les premières notes et qu'on ne s'y attendait pas ! Très bonne réaction, je n'ai jamais été un fan de Lara Fabian, je n'écoute pas ces chansons, mais cette performance est l'une des plus émotionnelles qu'il m'ait été donné de voir, je ne me lasse pas de la revoir de temps en temps ^^
You're French is very nice! And your singing voice is so very beautiful. Thank you for that. I always enjoy your reactions because you always manage to find words that others cannot find. I knew of Lara Fabian before I found Dimash. They are my two favorite singers. She also did a beautiful version of "The Love of Tired Swans with Igor accompanying her.
Thank you Sofie for making this reaction to Lara Fabians Je Suis Malade - it was so wonderful to see you react in such a deeply emotional and spontaneous way to her performance. Women tend to be more unpretentious and sensitive in their reactions whereas men's reaction to this song tend to be more guarded and unemotional - duhh, whats new huh? You obviously speak two languages but I couldn't tell from your accent what country you are from? Spain? I have so much respect for people fluent in many languages. Anyway, thanks for the honest reaction that obviously came from the soul - it was beautiful just like Lara's performance.
Brazil. SoFie is in a class by herself. She is a "rock star" to me. I would love to meet her. Oh, by the way, Lara's performance and interpretation of this song was incredible.:)
Bonjour, à la base, "Je suis malade" est une chanson de Serge Lama. Dalida, italo-égyptienne l'a effectivement reprise comme Lara Fabian. Merci pour la réaction.
Merci pour Alice Dona qui est est la sublime auteure de cette chanson profondément féminine, qui travailla avec son ami et interprète Serge Lama. Serge Lama sung for the first time this song, wrote by a great women writer Alice Dona. This song is fully enspirited with feminity loving.
@@doksooli Personnellement j'ai toujours aimé. Où les autres ne voyaient que "cris" j'y voyais, moi, complexités techniques, gamme de ouf, capacité à transmettre une émotion, un sentiment. Pourtant loin d'être une mélomane aguerri, plus un feeling. Le désamour des français m'a toujours intrigué. Sinon petite parenthèse heureuse/étrange coïncidence "Winamis tennis". Peut-être également sur Tennis Temple ? Fan de Dimash ?
The way she tries to pull herself back together in the end.. and she still couldn't. Judging by both your English and French accents I could guess you're a native Arabic speaker. Arabs just got special language talents 😂❤
You do a great review of the song, I appreciate all of Lara's feelings you explained (especially after the song is finished and she is still in the mood of the song) this is exactly how I see this performance. This is the greatest French song, but the greatest performance of all times, by Lara. ;-) Dominique
C'est en 1973 que je suis malade est composé par Serge Lama avec une musique d'Alice Dona et interprété par lui. Le chagrin d'une séparation difficile ou il se sentait malade.
Dalida était egyptienne,le chanteur qui à interprété 4je suis malade l toute première fois et dont la chanson lui appartient, et serge Lama// Lara est une grande artiste Belge , qui à une grande carrière en france
Votre analyse de cette magistrale interprétation est la plus pertinente, à mes yeux, que j'ai pu, jusqu'alors, lire. Donc... Je m'abonne. Et sinon, Bonne Année.
Please keep going on with her I highly recommend "Adagio" and "You're not from here" will be the next best live performances for you to react (the same concert with Je suis malade)... Hope to see you react those videos soon
Lara a une des plus belle voix dans le show business en plus d'être capable chanter en cinq langue mais ..... je me suis pas laissé déconcentrer par sa performance , j'ai vu a quel point tu es jolie ,naturel et sensible , 😍😉
Allo SoFie, j'ai récemment entendu la version de Dalida dans un film biographique, bien que je la respectait comme artiste, j'ai trouvé sa version bien päle face à l'artiste ici représentée, les goûts sont bien à tous et chacun, mais pour moi, l'originale de l'auteur est excellente, c'est bien sûr une chanson magnifique mais personne ne l'interprète comme Lara, une technique et des dynamiques renversantes, mais surtout un tour de force de communication d'émotions fortes, une histoire transmise par la maitrise du vocal et de la gestuelle, le support de la production est considérable, mais de réussir cela live est tout un exploit, Lara est dans une classe à part!
The song is from Serge Lama, one of the biggest star of the 70ies and more in France . Yes, the song began to be known after Dalida began to sing it . Dalida had such a sad life in love that this song seemed to be her life . Serge Lama said that Dalida sang it better than him. Dalida ended her life by a suicide . It's more terrible to listen to her singing that now since this horrible end .... I suppose Serge Lama is proud of this Lara's version . I think that Dalida inspired Lara for the way to sing this very sad song !
Merveilleuse chanson créee par Madame Alice DONNA pour son ami Serge LAMA magnifique interprête et chanteur pour moi exceptionnel, magistralement reprise par le merveilleuse Lara.
At last one of the reactors acknowledges Dalida who made Serge Lama's song famous! I wish I could experience this song in French. Alas I don't speak French!
She can sing the song the way she does not because of emotion. Yes, she has emotion as does virtually everyone. She can sing it the way she does because she is not acting. She is expressing what is genuine. She is sick, as is the universal human condition. Been there. I have seen it. I know it. Few are honest enough to admit it.
'Je n'ai pluzzzz envie' impressive link btw the 2 words 'Comme à un rocher' she starts to have a sobbing sound 'Quand ils sont làaa' she opens the a sound and be a bit sad and agressive 'Et je suis comme un oiseau mort, quand toi tu dors' long distance relationship sucks, specially when he/she is sleeping soundly next to you I love the way she sings the 'm' letter, in a long and wet way, like in 'cet ammmmmour me tue' And it's true... love can kill
Sofie, Lara is Dimash's idol. And my own idol since i was a child. Her performances is all - prodigies. Try : " you are not from here" by her. You will melt. Hi from lithuanian in Malta 🙋♂️.
Dalida était Egyptienne. La chanson "Je suis malade" a été écrite et chanté magnifiquement bien par Mr Serge Lama. Allez le voir la chanter, vous serez bluffé.
It's tempting to compare with Dimash, but he is still very focused on selling in Asia,where they are very fond of certain elements that are less valued in western classical aesthetics. Although this seems not to count in pop if you see all the reactions of coaches.
All of these records are recorded in ancient librarians. Beijing University's Beijing Museum also has records of underground warehouses. It is called Silla, Goguryeo, Baekje, and the emperor of heaven, and other kings are now local rulers. Genghis Khan is called Uiseong Gilsansa in Korean. Han is called king in other languages, and Gan and Khan are called king in English.
You're so right about her - she transmits whatever emotions she's found in her music to us all. For what I think is the peak example of the bond she's created with her audiences watch this performance of Je T'aime from 2002. The crowd singing to her - telling her they love her - has her break down crying on stage and can't hardly sing at all. It's so emotional and amazing. ua-cam.com/video/N-roGMGyFu0/v-deo.html
Thank you Sofie for your bilingual reaction. I love it. I saw many reaction to this performance and i prefer girl's reactions. I don't know,,,, they seemed more moved by this song or more concerned, maybe because in this song it's about a girl's heartbreak. I remember a girl reaction OMG, she was crying from the first note to the very last note! she was trying very hard to stop crying and say something but she just can't ! She finaly said it was HER story.
Great reaction! I subscribed to hear more reactions to Lara Fabian from you...please don't disappoint lol! Stick with her live performances only please
the first singer and writer of this sing is sere lama (french singer) (it was a part of his young life) he wroght this song for dalida in 1973 or around
she's the true queen of music industry in this whole world..
I’m a guy and I cannot listen to her singing without crying. She personifies love! I’ve never heard anything like it before! She amazes me.
I am a guy too - and I cry at this song every time.
Ditto
Even the creator of this song, Serge Lama, said in an interview that he often sing this song, and this song leads to tears.
Becose we had a hard time behind us
She gets done with the performance, the audience is giving a standing ovation and Lara is still in character--Awesome awesome display of emotion
She is the Top Female vocaliste in the world, major star in Europe, speaks fluently 4 languages, (Italian, French, English, Spanish) also Russian and Portugese. More than 30millions album sold world wide and almost unknown in the USA, i will let others explain her story, she is now 53 yo and just finished a world Tour in 2022. You now have the Lara-virus, no vaccin, no medication,she sings from her soul to yours....
She is awesome just awesome
The last note 17 seconds long
Unbelievable performance.
Lara goes into character and performs is astonishing.
And it takes her a little bit to snap back into reality.
And Sophi your voice is beautiful to.
Would love to here you sing a whole song
Great Reaction Stay Safe ❤️❤️❤️
Perhaps not THE perfection but closer to perfection than no one else will ever be. When this lady sings (anywhere she goes) I cry and I'm a 70 yo musician. Since the very first times she started to be visible on french TV, I fell in love with that great voice and this so big heart she has! Bravo madame Crokaert!
She wears her heart on her sleeve in this performance ... which is a very delecate balancing act. Impressive!
@@jenspetersimonsen4235 I would classify it as PERFECTION for me !
It's amazing that she can actually go to this level of emotion, on the very brink of crying by the sound of her shivering breaths, and still be able to sing. It's hard just to speak properly. But that's what she does. Absolutely connect with emotion and then project that in song.
How many artists put their soul and mind into their performances and sing their heart out like Lara does?! Can't be too many of them.

Une des plus belles chansons française de tous les temps, peut être même la plus belle. Des frissons à chaque fois même en l'écoutant plusieurs fois d'affilées... ! Un chef d'œuvre émotionnel
at the end of the song, you can see that she is momentarily drained of all of her emotions and strength.... amazing... I love this performance....
I too felt that way.
A great reaction! I was afraid you'd be somewhat prepared by hearing other covers and stuff by her before. But this performance truly is her tour the force, and worthy of every praise imaginable.
You said it all, " I wouldn't know how life would be without knowing this performance". Unbelievable...I feel exactly as you do and you express how taken you are with every aspect, so well. Thanks from Canada.

1006... now 1007....
It's OK. One day I'll succeed in not crying while listening and watching this performance.
Well, Maybe before 2000.
BRAVO! I looked a so many reactions to this performance and you are the only one that saw that "she went somewhere and had to come back from..." And then you can see she realised what just happened...
I love everything about this performance. Her ability to portray and convey emotion is off the charts.
Getting shivers over a song you know so well tells you how great the performance is. :)
Yes! Here Lara Fabian sang to the fullest. Although I don’t know French, even I have tears in my eyes from her performance.😪 Great react, love your react ❤️

This is a masterclass of everything has to do with performing and singing. i seen her in consert front row. not from this world.
You are so lucky.
I absolutely love this performance. Her ability to emote and tell a story is beyond compare. I know a little French, but this is out of my range. Still, every time I watch her, all I want to do is wrap my arms around her and just hold her.

Sofie, I adore your reactions, keep them coming.
Beautiful reaction from a beautiful woman.
A piano,a woman,a broken heart and a beautiful cry for love
what else could top this.
Lara is magnificent and this is her best performance! She emotes perfectly. I know because I've lived this song.
My favorite reaction to this incredible performance! You were really feeling Lara's emotions at 6:35! Such a powerful performance and a great reaction! Love you!! ❤️
Lara is born in belgium from a belgian father and an italian mother. She lived in belgium until she decided to move to canada. Her real name is Lara Crockaert, a flemish name
For me, the last moments show that she is really honest. She is awaking, What an artist!
Hi Sofie. So glad that you listened to this song (I had recommended this to you for some time). I discovered her this year and she has become one of my favorite singers (in addition to Morissette and So Hyang) because of her emotional impact by "living" the songs. Great reaction by you! I highly recommend:
1) Ti Amo Cosi- Lara singing with Dimash (and Aida); two of the greatest singers present today
2) Broken Vow
3) Adagio- her version inspired Dimash (Singer 2017)
4) Caruso
89,500 and counting!
Adagio was written by Lara Fabian in collaboration with another writer.
Je suis malade (song) The real story of the song
When the song was written, Lara Fabian was only 3 years old.
Je suis malade is a song by Serge Lama, released in 1973 as a single and on the album Je suis malade. Written by Serge Lama on a music composed by Alice Dona, the song became the most emblematic title of the repertoire of Serge Lama who regularly takes it on stage 3.
History
The song Je suis malade was inspired by a real heartbreak of Serge Lama, the story of a long secret relationship.
In 1969, the singer met Michèle Potier in Chamonix. Love was a certainty, but neither of them was free: he had married Daisy Brun, his press agent, in 1968, and she was married and had a son. They love each other in secret for several years and promise to regain their freedom, but Michèle hesitates and finally flees him and settles in Morocco for professional reasons. Lama is desperate, he wants to put words on his pain without succeeding, until the day he confides in his friend Alice Dona: "this story hurts me, it makes me sick. Back home, at the piano, Alice Dona, composes in a few hours a melody [...], that very quickly, she makes the singer listen. It was a revelation and Serge Lama wrote almost the entire text in one go.

Recognition came for the creator of Je suis malade, in 1974, when one evening on the stage of the Olympia in Paris, Serge Lama completed the song by interpreting it without a microphone a cappella in front of an audience conquered by a triumph.
Another happiness, the return of Michele, free and together, they give birth to a boy named Frederic in 1981 and marry ten years later8. Michèle died in 2016 at 71 years, victim of a stroke9. Her death gives the song another dimension, Lama who has not given up singing it on stage says: "Every night when this song comes, I know it is an obstacle that must be jumped [...], it usually takes me a minute to recover [...], this song deserves to be given everything".

You are one of the few reactors who respond to the gesture of slicing of her throat when referring to being like a dead bird next to him as he sleeps. Bravo, for noticing and speaking to it!
The original song was written by the french singer Serge Lama and his friend Alice Dona. He is the first one to have sung it. And it is inspired by his love story.
so glad this vid popped up in my recommendations. Great reaction. It was a lot like mine when I first saw this performance. I just discovered Fabian about a month ago. I never fangirl, ever, but I totally am with her. Her technique, her tone, her emotion completely , completely, COMPLETELY blows me away everytime. Would love to see your reaction to Adagio from this same live concert. And her performance of Caruso. (And, well, everything else of hers you'd care to react to. She wrote Broken Vow and it too is a stunning performance.) Anyway, thank you. i got chills listening again, even though I've watched this many, many times over the past few weeks.
Subscribed!
She's on another level, over the masters, a free electron...
Lara is a Heaven's gift. We Russians love her very much, she is famous in Russia as well
Originally this song superbly interpreted by Lara was written and performed by Serge Lama in 1973 and the text is the doubly autobiographical expression of the male singer-songwriter who included in this true desperate love story the unhappy feelings of his childhood.
She just sang with Dimash and Aida in Moscow at Igor Krutoy’s show. They sang Ti Amo Cosi. They were magnificent!
...i heard that Lara was ill during that performance but still sounded amazing
michael cole that is true. I saw a rehearsal Video and she was very Ill. I couldn’t believe it when she started singing. These people are real pros. That’s for sure.
wow, while you were talking about Lara being "naked" on stage you were also being "naked" in your feelings about the performance---thank you for one of the best reactions I have watched.
It's called a master class on how to act your song!
Lara Fabian is an amazing singer. She is delicate, sensitive, feminine and have a beautiful soul.
And you are very beautiful, romantic and delicate too...
God bless you. 🇧🇷
Dimash is a flash in the pan .
Lara is forever. She goes to a level/zone I've never seen before, and she takes me with her. Thanks for the ride Lara.
Love you.
Gracias por tus magníficos comentarios y análisis sobre Lara, su voz, su arte y sensibilidad exquisita para vivir la canción y transmitirla como si estiviera viviendo esa situación en el preciso momento de cantarla
Lara.. the BEST... No discution!!
Lara Fabian is a great singer and wow she very Talented and very Beautiful looking young lady just like you Sofie . wow this is a first this is the most shock and emotional l seen from you about a singer.
INCROYABLE....as you. THANKS. KISS from PARIS.
ah ça y est on a enfin entendu ta voix en français ahahah. Merci pour la réaction, j'aime tellement cette chanson et puis Lara Fabian l'a merveilleusement bien chantée. Merci =)
Première vidéo que je regarde de Sofie et hop ! First try 😂
C'est toujours un plaisir d'arriver sur une vidéo ou l'on entend du BTS dés les premières notes et qu'on ne s'y attendait pas ! Très bonne réaction, je n'ai jamais été un fan de Lara Fabian, je n'écoute pas ces chansons, mais cette performance est l'une des plus émotionnelles qu'il m'ait été donné de voir, je ne me lasse pas de la revoir de temps en temps ^^
Parfait perfect interpretation emotional lara Fabian is amazing perfect good day all people kiss and love all people peace
You're French is very nice! And your singing voice is so very beautiful. Thank you for that. I always enjoy your reactions because you always manage to find words that others cannot find. I knew of Lara Fabian before I found Dimash. They are my two favorite singers. She also did a beautiful version of "The Love of Tired Swans with Igor accompanying her.
I think she"s north african that's why she speaks french really good
@@chordify4016 Morocco I think.
Thank you Sofie for making this reaction to Lara Fabians Je Suis Malade - it was so wonderful to see you react in such a deeply emotional and spontaneous way to her performance. Women tend to be more unpretentious and sensitive in their reactions whereas men's reaction to this song tend to be more guarded and unemotional - duhh, whats new huh? You obviously speak two languages but I couldn't tell from your accent what country you are from? Spain? I have so much respect for people fluent in many languages. Anyway, thanks for the honest reaction that obviously came from the soul - it was beautiful just like Lara's performance.
Brazil. SoFie is in a class by herself. She is a "rock star" to me. I would love to meet her. Oh, by the way, Lara's performance and interpretation of this song was incredible.:)
Bonjour, à la base, "Je suis malade" est une chanson de Serge Lama. Dalida, italo-égyptienne l'a effectivement reprise comme Lara Fabian. Merci pour la réaction.
Merci pour ces précisions, fait du bien de lire un peu de Français dans ce monde complètement unilingue maintenant!
Merci pour Alice Dona qui est est la sublime auteure de cette chanson profondément féminine, qui travailla avec son ami et interprète Serge Lama.
Serge Lama sung for the first time this song, wrote by a great women writer Alice Dona. This song is fully enspirited with feminity loving.
@@vincentl2162 L'auteur est Serge Lama. Alice Dona a composé la musique...
The author is Serge Lama,he did the lyrics. Alice Dona composed the music.
Oui pas un fan de Lara au depart... mais elle a tué toute tentative de reprise de cette chanson. C'est monstrueux... dans le bon sens du terme.
@@doksooli Personnellement j'ai toujours aimé. Où les autres ne voyaient que "cris" j'y voyais, moi, complexités techniques, gamme de ouf, capacité à transmettre une émotion, un sentiment. Pourtant loin d'être une mélomane aguerri, plus un feeling. Le désamour des français m'a toujours intrigué.
Sinon petite parenthèse heureuse/étrange coïncidence "Winamis tennis". Peut-être également sur Tennis Temple ? Fan de Dimash ?
C'est vraiment tres sympa de t'ecouter parler français. we love it.KISS from PARIS
U are great in your reactions and thanks for appreciating french music and language
The way she tries to pull herself back together in the end.. and she still couldn't.
Judging by both your English and French accents I could guess you're a native Arabic speaker. Arabs just got special language talents 😂❤
A reaction does not get any better than that Sofie girl, thank you..I have to say, one of the best all-time reviews, thank you..
You do a great review of the song, I appreciate all of Lara's feelings you explained (especially after the song is finished and she is still in the mood of the song) this is exactly how I see this performance. This is the greatest French song, but the greatest performance of all times, by Lara. ;-) Dominique
This song is from Serge Lama, so originally male version. But Lara's cover is brilliant.
C'est en 1973 que je suis malade est composé par Serge Lama avec une musique d'Alice Dona et interprété par lui. Le chagrin d'une séparation difficile ou il se sentait malade.
Dalida était egyptienne,le chanteur qui à interprété 4je suis malade l toute première fois et dont la chanson lui appartient, et serge Lama// Lara est une grande artiste Belge , qui à une grande carrière en france
Votre analyse de cette magistrale interprétation est la plus pertinente, à mes yeux, que j'ai pu, jusqu'alors, lire.
Donc... Je m'abonne.
Et sinon, Bonne Année.
Sofie I was in the middle of a breakup with the love of my life when I heard this and I cant tell you how I cried
Please keep going on with her
I highly recommend "Adagio" and "You're not from here" will be the next best live performances for you to react (the same concert with Je suis malade)... Hope to see you react those videos soon
I agree :-) Great performances
Yes these songs are beautiful too! And she writes adagio in english and italian so it's very her words.
Yes: Adagio from this same concert is amazing. Caruso (from a different concert) is also incredible. Would love réaction to both.
No. You're not from here is way better
i would even add "broken vow" to this. Also very much into character
I hope this is the first of many reactions you do on Lara.
I still love your voice and would love to hear you sing more.
SoFieReact Thank you. As a belgian, I must say that Lara is belgian, born in Belgium. Italian origins. And a bit Canadian by adoption later
Sicilian actually 😉
I'm belgian also & I love her !
C'est clair, faut pas oublier la belgique, merde. ^^
Née a Etterbeek 😉
She has the dual citizenship, Belgian and Canadian.
@@Thunderworks Dad belgian and born in belgium so she s belgian.
Lara a une des plus belle voix dans le show business en plus d'être capable chanter en cinq langue mais ..... je me suis pas laissé déconcentrer par sa performance , j'ai vu a quel point tu es jolie ,naturel et sensible , 😍😉
Allo SoFie, j'ai récemment entendu la version de Dalida dans un film biographique, bien que je la respectait comme artiste, j'ai trouvé sa version bien päle face à l'artiste ici représentée, les goûts sont bien à tous et chacun, mais pour moi, l'originale de l'auteur est excellente, c'est bien sûr une chanson magnifique mais personne ne l'interprète comme Lara, une technique et des dynamiques renversantes, mais surtout un tour de force de communication d'émotions fortes, une histoire transmise par la maitrise du vocal et de la gestuelle, le support de la production est considérable, mais de réussir cela live est tout un exploit, Lara est dans une classe à part!
The song is from Serge Lama, one of the biggest star of the 70ies and more in France . Yes, the song began to be known after Dalida began to sing it . Dalida had such a sad life in love that this song seemed to be her life . Serge Lama said that Dalida sang it better than him. Dalida ended her life by a suicide . It's more terrible to listen to her singing that now since this horrible end .... I suppose Serge Lama is proud of this Lara's version . I think that Dalida inspired Lara for the way to sing this very sad song !
You could react to Lara Fabian's "Adagio", from the same show. It's superb. The dynamics, the beltings, the emotions. Please, do it!
Merveilleuse chanson créee par Madame Alice DONNA pour son ami Serge LAMA magnifique interprête et chanteur pour moi exceptionnel, magistralement reprise par le merveilleuse Lara.
Lara voice is simply magnificent
Serge Lama (a french singer) wrote this song .. In 5 min (he was in a waiting room with a friend, then.. Tadaaa !) Great song!
At last one of the reactors acknowledges Dalida who made Serge Lama's song famous!
I wish I could experience this song in French. Alas I don't speak French!
Your french is really good, love your accent
She can sing the song the way she does not because of emotion. Yes, she has emotion as does virtually everyone. She can sing it the way she does because she is not acting. She is expressing what is genuine. She is sick, as is the universal human condition. Been there. I have seen it. I know it. Few are honest enough to admit it.
'Je n'ai pluzzzz envie' impressive link btw the 2 words
'Comme à un rocher' she starts to have a sobbing sound
'Quand ils sont làaa' she opens the a sound and be a bit sad and agressive
'Et je suis comme un oiseau mort, quand toi tu dors' long distance relationship sucks, specially when he/she is sleeping soundly next to you
I love the way she sings the 'm' letter, in a long and wet way, like in 'cet ammmmmour me tue'
And it's true... love can kill
Your reaction was as good as Lara's performance. Thank you
Sofie, Lara is Dimash's idol. And my own idol since i was a child. Her performances is all - prodigies. Try : " you are not from here" by her. You will melt. Hi from lithuanian in Malta 🙋♂️.
Master performer.
great reaction
My favorite of the concert is Broken Vow... Such a gorgeous song
She was born in Belgium, of Italian descent, and chose to become naturalized Canadian and lives in Canada have dual nationality.
She was born in Belgium from a belgian father and an italian mother...
Dalida était Egyptienne. La chanson "Je suis malade" a été écrite et chanté magnifiquement bien par Mr Serge Lama. Allez le voir la chanter, vous serez bluffé.
It's tempting to compare with Dimash, but he is still very focused on selling in Asia,where they are very fond of certain elements that are less valued in western classical aesthetics. Although this seems not to count in pop if you see all the reactions of coaches.
All of these records are recorded in ancient librarians. Beijing University's Beijing Museum also has records of underground warehouses. It is called Silla, Goguryeo, Baekje, and the emperor of heaven, and other kings are now local rulers. Genghis Khan is called Uiseong Gilsansa in Korean. Han is called king in other languages, and Gan and Khan are called king in English.
well said good soul!
God bless.
DIMASH WHO ? Give me Lara Fabian every time 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕💕💕 Portland Oregon USA 🇺🇸

Thank you for this reaction ❤️ Please react to more songs from this concert. They are all wonderful ❤️
You're so right about her - she transmits whatever emotions she's found in her music to us all.
For what I think is the peak example of the bond she's created with her audiences watch this performance of Je T'aime from 2002. The crowd singing to her - telling her they love her - has her break down crying on stage and can't hardly sing at all. It's so emotional and amazing.

Thank you Sofie for your bilingual reaction. I love it. I saw many reaction to this performance and i prefer girl's reactions. I don't know,,,, they seemed more moved by this song or more concerned, maybe because in this song it's about a girl's heartbreak. I remember a girl reaction OMG, she was crying from the first note to the very last note! she was trying very hard to stop crying and say something but she just can't ! She finaly said it was HER story.
You look beautiful sofie.....keep up the excellent reactions.
Great reaction! I subscribed to hear more reactions to Lara Fabian from you...please don't disappoint lol! Stick with her live performances only please
dear Sofie, this song was written by SERGE LAMA a french singer
C'est une magnifique interprétation d'une vieille chanson de serge lama :D
the first singer and writer of this sing is sere lama (french singer) (it was a part of his young life)
he wroght this song for dalida in 1973 or around
❤️ the best performance of all time
