    Her US career was sabotaged by her own US record company, Sony, under the pressure of Celine’s husband and producer, René Angélil, who didn’t want Celine to face the same competition in the US that she has been facing in Quebec.
    But Lara is a legend in many, many other countries : from France to Brazil, Russia, and all eastern europe countries.

    Yes!! You found her. Lara Fabian is my Nr One of female voices of her generation. I cant get my eyes or ears from this amazing artist. First time a heard her i was so amazed i just had to se her live. So I flew to Tallin and saw her concert there in october 2022. She writes many of her songs..plays piano..she is the nicest humble woman. I think Celins voice is much moore nasal and nothing like Laras. I hope you will Check out moore songs from this concert " Je suis malade" is fantastic. Keep up the good work.🎉❤ Eric Sicard will fill you in with all there is to know about Lara. 👍

    More information on Lara Fabian:
    Lara is recognized as one of the best vocalist ever seen on earth and all professionals list her in the top vocalist tier with Barbra, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Shirley Bassey, Lisa Fischer, ....
    In my personal opinion, she is even the best.
    There are a few vocal characteristics that are her signature: her famous resonance for instance that allows her to sing acapella without mic in venues with 10,000+ attendees. Her nickname in the singing world is "the ring" due to this. I would also list her amazing phrasing, breath management and her pleasant tone even when belting in her upper register.
    So she is one of the best vocalist ever, but on top of that, she adds a few things that make her an absolute package with no equivalence:
    • she speaks 2 languages natively (french, italian), and 2 others fluently (english, spanish), can speak a bit of dutch (and sicilian), and understand quite well russian and portuguese. She has sung in 12 languages in total
    • she is an amazing songwriter and wrote lyrics for 200+ songs, in the 4 languages she speaks fluently. She often co-composes the music, and is at the source of the melodic line.
    • she acts and performs on stage as nobody else, she colors and reveals the meaning of every single word in the songs, and her ability to emote, to draw you in is second to none
    • she is the sweetest soul on earth, very humble, down to earth and benevolent. She likes to meet others, and her fans are always pleasantly surprised when this happens.
    A quick background on her and her career:
    She is belgian, her father is flemish and grand mother on father side is dutch, but she also has italian roots (her mother is from sicilia) and American roots ( the father of her mother is from Detroit). She had been raised in Sicilia first for 7 years then in Belgium so she speaks both italian and french as native languages.
    She has been classically trained on vocal, piano and songs composition for 10 years ( from 8 to 18) in the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
    She is still having vocal lessons and training several times a week today. She only moved away from opera to pop because she is first and foremost a songwriter.
    After her Eurovision participation in 1988 (4th), she really started her career in Canada in the early 90s, more precisely in Quebec, the french-speaking part of Canada.
    She had been living for years in Montreal and has also Canadian citizenship. She moved to Sicilia end of 2022.
    She became very famous in Quebec in the early 90s with several double platine records and then conquered France in 1996/1997 (she topped charts there and some of her songs such as "Je t'aime" or "Tout" became classics of the french music).
    In 2000, she was about to penetrate the US Market, with a lot of media initial interest. Her first english song (I will love again), a pop dance song, stayed number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart for 58 weeks in a row and was number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100.
    Her Album ("Lara Fabian") was about to become a massive hit, and the concert "From Lara With Love" was recorded to be broadcasted everywhere in the US.
    This concert is legendary, packed with masterpieces (covered by many great vocalists later on).
    But a dispute with Sony on artistry directions, and the will from Celine Dion's staff to block her progress in the US, completely broke this plan.
    She thus refocused back on Europe and made huge success there, extending her reach to Eastern Europe and Central Asia where she became an absolute superstar through her collaboration with Igor Krutoy during several years. She is absolutely massive in Russia for instance.
    She is also a star in Brazil as her song "Love By Grace", used as the soundtrack for a very famous soap opera, topped the charts for months and become a recurrent in the local singing contests since then.
    Many of her songs became classics and were covered by the other singing legends: Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Josh Groban (they are friends and he told she is a role model for him), Linda Eder, …
    With her success in Europe, Brazil and part of Asia, she is the inspiration of the new generation of vocalists: most of them are coming from there.
    Thru their covers of Lara Fabian songs, USA and many other countries are now rediscovering her.
    She is Dimash's idol:
    • I’ve read somewhere that, when he was a child, he was listening her songs every night to get asleep.
    • He covered many of her songs, most of these were composed by Igor Krutoy and written by by Lara.
    Out of my mind I can list:
    ○ Adagio (She wrote it and is the original performer),
    ○ Mademoiselle Hyde (she wrote it and is the original performer),
    ○ Love of Tired Swans (she wrote the song in French under the title "Je t'aime encore" and was the original performer of the french then the russian versions, Dimash covered the russian version)
    ○ Ascolta La Voce / Vocalize (this was a pure vocalization and she was the original performer, then lyrics were added for Dimash and it was rebranded as "Know")
    • She also wrote the lyrics of Dimash's song "Your Love".
    • And she covered "Love is like a dream" before him (song from Igor Krutoy originally performed by Alla Pugacheva).
    • Finally, they also performed "Ti Amo Cosi" together, in trio with Aida Garafulina: this is a song that she performed originally with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Sumi Jo then again later with Dmitri and Alina Yarovaya, before this new trio with Dimash and Aida.
    Dimash is now also working with Igor Krutoy: Igor and Dimash connected after his Adagio cover, also endorsed by Lara.
    Igor came back from retirement and composed severals songs for him after it.
    Many other top vocalists from the current generation covered her songs, some have Lara as a role model and big inspiration (singers from every region in the world: from China and Taiwan, to Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Netherlands, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Italy, France, Belgium, Norway, UK, USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Central Africa, …)

    ○ ....
    NB: Lara did cover Caruso , Je suis malade, and Love by grace, these are not her originals, but I mention these here as the related artists were attracted to cover it again after listening to Lara’s version.
    Today, Lara still has an amazing voice and tone and can still reach the 5th octave with resonance ; she still offers these emotive renditions that are her unique signature.
    In June 2022, she kicked off a WW tour and stunned her fans once again with 5 magical concerts in Canada. She completed the europe part in September/October 2022 and I attended a concert from this tour. It was packed and she was again spectacular.
    On April, May, June 2023 she had again some wonderful concerts in Tbilissi, Georgia, then in Ouzbekhistan, Kazakhstan, Romania.
    She is about to release a new album and just completed another popular tour in eastern europe (Czech Republic, Moldavia, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Hungary) and in Canada in april-june 2024. She also appeared as a guest in some big events such as Hauser’s concert in Royal Albert Hall (May 9th 2024). Then, after some rest and a few TV Shows, she will tour France in 2025.
    The first song of her new album (titled "Ta Peine" - Your Sorrow) was released late January 2024 and is a success in France. Her album is expected to be released in fall 2024.
    Sorry if I was long, but I hope this gives some context on Lara.

    Lara has a definite clarity and range that has earned her the nickname “the ring”. This song she was asked to write lyrics for has been covered by multiple artists. It is based on an original musical score.

  • @ericsicard910
    @ericsicard910 3 місяці тому +24

    Adagio is an italian word, that means "Slowly".
    This is also used in music to define the pace of a music (a bit slow, between lento and andante) and also as a name of a piece of a sonata, concerto or symphony that is using that specific pace.
    The music from this song of Lara Fabian is a pop translation of an italian classic piece called "Albinoni's Adagio". It was written in 1958 by Remo Giazotto who was an admirer of Albinoni, a musician from the 17th/18th century. He claimed it was from him and gave his music this name but there is consensus today that he most probably has composed it himself.
    The classic music piece is globally famous and there were many different translations into different songs, with different music compositions, mostly operatic, and different lyrics (the band Renaissance, Daniele Licari, Sarah Brightman and Sissel Kyrkjebo for instance).
    But the most famous version, by far, is Lara’s version:
    it was translated into a pop song for her, she wrote lyrics in italian then co-wrote the english lyrics for it and is the original performer of these 2 versions.
    She kept the title Adagio and wrote a story with a double meaning: a woman that is awaiting to find her love / an artist that is awaiting the god of inspiration.
    This song has become a classic and has been covered by many : Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash (Lara is his absolute idol and he covered several of her songs), Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Julie Anne San Jose, Charice Penpengco, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, Il Divo, Rimar, Vitas, Anastasia Luna, Evgenia Fanfara, , …
    They made great covers but none of these match the amazing storytelling performance of Lara, or her ability to use vocal subtleties to be in sync with the music, exposed in her live from the concert From Lara with Love.

      Lara is an interesting mix of several cultures inherited from her parents or grandparents: belgian flemish, dutch, italian sicilian, american, …
      She has sung in 13 languages and has written songs in 4.
      She is now living in Sicilia with her sicilian husband but has been living in Montreal for a few decades.
      About her voice, her friend David Foster has said: "when we first met her, we couldn’t believe what we were hearing. she has a voice from another planet or something.(…)she is top of the heap of the world’s greatest voices.”

    Lara is Belgium/Italian that is a Naturalized Canadian. She considers Italian her Mother Tongue & it is the first language she learned to speak. This song dates back to 1685 as strictly as an instrumental piece played during Opera breaks. Over the the song was re-written, the changes were primarily key changes. When Lara was 1st asked to write words, she responded. “Are you crazy? Not to this Italian Classic. Eventually, Lara gave in & she wrote both English & Italian lyric’s. Sony’s decision to market Celine in the U.S. & Canada, then Sony would market Lara Fabian as an InterNational Artist for the rest of the World. Sony may have been a blessing, instead of holding her back. ✌🏼

    xxx-FYI: She’s absolutely beautiful at 54 - LARA (not Laura) Fabian (Fah-bey-ahn) with links: Lara Fabian is a Canadian (Québécoise) of Belgian birth and Italian/Franco/Flemish cultural heritage. Lara studied piano, composition, and voice at a Brussels Conservatory for a decade. Lara is a full lyric soprano with a vocal range that spans four octaves (A5, B4, BB4, C3, C5, C#5, D5, E5, EB5, F5, F#5, G5) in live performances. She is multilingual; she speaks Italian, French, Spanish, and English and has sung in 12. Lara, who describes herself as a songwriter/singer, creates a high emotional connection with the listener. She has a discography of over 400 songs, has sold over 25 million records, and plays at sold-out venues worldwide. She lives with her husband and daughter in Montreal, Brussels and Sicily.
    I’m a ‘fan’ because of her high level ‘EQ’ (emotional intelligence) expressed in the text of her songs.
    La raison pour laquelle je suis un « fan » de Lara Fabian est son « QE » élevé, qu’elle exprime dans le texte de ses chansons.

    Lara was born in Belgium because her father is from there (where they also speak French). But Lara grew up in Italy because her mother is Italian. At the age of 21 Lara moved to Canada where she has been ever since.

    Lara is amazing, she is a queen. A real artist does not just sing, she writes, composes and performs the song on stage. I curse the American music industry and Sony Music every day. The evil they did to her is unbelievable. Celine Dion shined thanks to the music company she got behind, her singing techniques are incomparable because Lara Fabian has a much stronger voice and the most important difference is that Lara does not sing the song, she lives it. She is much more talented than those who are shown as divas in America, that's why they blocked her way. Lara is 54 now and her voice is still amazing, I am very lucky to have the opportunity to hear her live.

    Not sure if you're still reading comments from this reaction (which was great btw! thank you so much!). I just wanted to weigh in on the Lara vs. Celine thing. As you've realized by now, there's a certain amount of acrimony from Lara fans regarding Celine due to the events of 2000 which led to Lara being exiled from the US market. You said it yourself... you're surprised you've never heard of her (until now). And that's exactly the reason why! Music industry shenanigans that led to a wonderful singer/songwriter being cancelled from the largest, most influential market in the entire world. For me personally, it took 23 years to discover Lara because of that reason. She has now become my favorite singer (I live in North Carolina and have bought tickets to go see her next year in Nice, France... that's how much of a fan I've become, lol). There is a part of me that resents I had to wait so long to discover her (and by accident!). You can imagine the frustration and anger of so many newer fans like me that her talent was blocked from them due to fear of competition and wanting to control the market. Whether Celine was involved in those decisions or not, it's natural for many to associate her with that great injustice considering her husband was instrumental in the outcome.
    My point here isn't to amplify the acrimony and controversy! It's simply to ask that you give grace to those who feel wronged and not be dissuaded from continuing your journey of discovering Lara (which would be natural--no sane person wants to be involved in polarization and toxicity--especially when it comes to something so wonderful as music). That would be a disservice to Lara (who is blameless) and to your own desire of being open to new artists!
    Personally, I continue to be an admirer of Celine (as I have always been). The more beautiful music in the world, the better! But I am also very angry at her husband and Sony and the entire music industry for this kind of BS. In the end though, I did find my (now) favorite singer and for that I am so grateful to the universe.
    This has turned out way too long, lol! I'm sorry! Just thought the context might be useful. I despise polarization and toxicity and didn't want that to be a reason for you to be turned off from Lara. I hope you enjoy the Lara rabbit hole! Just ignore the toxic comments (while understanding where they're coming from).

The major difference between them IMO is that Céline got a higher pitch and is the queen of the pop, Lara write her song and is a Master at controle and interpretation. The full show ''Lara with love'' is a good one, Broken vow wich was retake by Barbara Streisand to name only her.

    Lara is Dimash's ultimate idol who has largely influenced both his approach to vocals and his stage performances.
    I further suggest you follow to do research about her musical journey, composer of a few hundreds of songs. Include some interviews to get the true story.
