Dan Vasc is a Brazilian metal singer so the nasal quality comes very naturally as his first language is Portuguese, not English. When this was suggested by you tube back in April when it came out I was appalled that a metal singer would destroy my favorite hymn but bored enough to click on it. At the end I was crying with joy. Dan Vasc has studied voice for years to be able to produce the power this hymn naturally needs to get its point across. This is the best version of it I will ever hear and yes my favorite version before was the bagpipes. He has well over 200 videos out there of many different genres. His musical instincts are spot on; he knows how to take an 80's ballad and gild it in metal and make it awesome. He has done opera as well; I see several suggestions in the chat below. I was not a metal fan before listening to this incredible singer but I find that he has opened up genres I didn't give the time of day to before; metal and opera being two. He has a genius for taking a song and insuring it has contrast, soft, loud, slow, fast, grit, smooth. His range is incredible and his vocal toolbox seems limitless. He has done metal covers of "Angels We Have Heard On High" and "Adeste Fideles" both for Christmas. He has stated he is a Christian (for those who ask) and he put this out for Easter. Dan Vasc has convinced me that archangels sing metal; he sings like St. Michael slaying demons while praising the Almighty. (P.S. I like your accent. It reminds me of my relatives down home.)

What you experienced in this song is what's referred to by those of us in Vasc-Nation as "Dan doing Dan things." He's a self-proclaimed heavy metal singer, but he can truly sing anything! I've been listening to him, daily, since 9/15/20, when I first heard him do The Sound of Silence (the 2020 cover; he also did it in 2016), and the only days I haven't listened to him were two and a half back in September2020, when wildland fires fried our internet lines; longest days of my life since finding Dan. I'm not going to request any specific song by him to react to because I truly love them all. Just explore his channel and find your own favorites.

React to Dan Vasc and his 900k fans will click on your channel. He has a large and very loyal fan base. All of Dan’s covers are amazing. He never disappoints. Thank you for this reaction.

Daniel is a force of Nature - completely controlled and directed by years of training and hard work. He is a musical genius - who takes any song he wants and makes it better; he drags us into the songs, creating a vocal axis where any other sound in the environment simply disappears... He has enormous range and absurd breath control. ( classical training). Due to his vocal and artistic skills and also his perfectionist personality, he always surprises! Everything he delivers has a "seal" of excellence. Reactors are initially surprised and then just say: "He did it again! Okay, it's just Dan doing Dan’s things.😃 Some critics have already given him affectionate and eligious nicknames such as "Brazilian wildfire”, “Brasilian Lion", "Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Master Voice", "Brasilian Baby Alien", “Pirelli advertising”. 🤣🤣🤣(It's a compliment, but it's funny). We often say that he does a beautiful job for Humanity, spreading drops of healing frequencies and power to all people - in every note emitted, in every syllable pronounced. I have my favorite songs, but you will certainly find yours - among so many options. (240??) He has been doing this work on the channel for over 13 years and wants to reach 1 million followers. He deserves. Welcome to VascNacion! Thank you for your reaction! Hugs from Curitiba - Brazil🇧🇷

Dan sings a wide variety of styles from heavy metal, to folk music, to opera, yes, opera, 80s covers, you really need to go down that rabbit hole.

Dan Vasc is a great singer. His vocal range is absolutely crazy. He can sing basically everything, from metal to opera. That's the best rendition of this Christian hymn ever. I enjoyed your review to it.

Welcome to the Dan Vasc Rabbit Hole! ❤

Of course, I'll Make a Man Out of You, but for a touching cover, right after his father died he performed American Trilogy, his dad's favorite song.

Today you were introduced to the newest musical genius of the 21st century. After listening to 3 or 4 of his renditions you’ll be having the same opinion. Great reaction. You’re very welcome to the VascNation🫡

this Amazing Grace should be planet earths national anthem , what a concept , one world , imagine that , peace and ❤Australia

I'm going to preface everything by saying I'm more than a little biased when it comes to this artist...🥴 Daniel Vasconcelos, aka Dan Vasc, is one of, if not the, best voices to ever grace the "airwaves" in the last 10 or so years. To quote another vocalist/coach/reactor, he is "Velvet to the ears"... his vocal ability is just breathtaking. Dan can, and does, sing anything and everything from many different genres; opera, soft rock, folk, stage musicals and heavy metal (his self confessed preference). This amazing young man from Brazil is so much more than just what you see onscreen. He is a singer, songwriter, composer, musical arranger/director, video director, and so much more. He has spent most of his adult life honing his talent and skills, studying many aspects of the music business. He has also been working on that glorious instrument since his late teens/early twenties. For perspective on just how much work he has put in, may I suggest going to Dan's yt channel, and going all the way back to the first tentative videos of a very young, very green boy recording his audition for DragonForce lead singer,,,it shows his ambition, even then, to succeed. Work your way forward, chronologically, to see the progress he has made that brings him to the present, even if you don't react to all of them, it is a journey well worth taking...😉 Along the way Dan has collaborated with other singers and musicians such as Petra members John Schlitt and John Lawry; Rhapsody lead singer Fabio Leone; Eric Gromwall from H.E.A.T and Skidrow, as well as Luis Mariutti and Richardo Confessori, with whom he co-wrote and recorded the vocals for their release "Where The Eagles Fly". He has been involved in workshops with Luis, and recorded a version of "Black Wind Fire and Steel",,, again, worth a watch. Dan has also appeared onstage with Brazilian artist Edu Falaschi. He has a metal band of his own, FEARLESS, they released an album, "The Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom" a few years ago (available through the usual music streaming services...). The longest collab is with guitarist "Victor The Guitar Nerd", Victor Jonasson who is a member of the Swedish band Eleine. As previously mentioned, I may be a smidge biased when it comes to this phenomenal young man, I gladly admit so...☺️ 🙃🐨🇦🇺

Great reaction..Dan can sing anything and make it sound awesome. If u want to hear his full unbelievable range listen to Dan sing BRING ME TO LIFE...he's simply fantastic

Dan is amazing! I am a PK (Preacher's Kid) and was in church in utero. My family is also very musical. I play several instruments and sing. I've heard this performed in hundreds (if not thousands) of ways throughout my lifetime. My beloved Granny played the harmonica beautiful and as a teenager at family gatherings, we'd gatger around the piano (which I played) and would sing as she played harmonica and I played piano and this gives me chills EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear it! I try to listen to it once a day if not more! It is, IMHO, the hands-down best version ever performed. I feel like all of Heaven stopped to listen! I also believe that Dan was meant to sing this song "for such a time as this ". When the world grows darker and more tumultuous by the day/hourI can't wait to sing this in Heaven together to our Heavenly Father!! Until then, stay blessed! 👑✝️❤️🌎👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🐑☝🏼💪🏾⚓️🪨🏰⛰️🛡🗡📖🙏🏻🛐🎶🙌🧂🕯💧🔥🕊 #AmazingLove #AmazingGrace #GodIsGood #forgiven #redeemed #JesusSaves #John316 #DanVasc #VascNation

Dan Vasc is classically trained and can sing from opera to heavy metal and everything in between. He is one of best male vocalist on youtube. He has is own band called Fearless, but he does covers as a soloist. No matter what you choose next of his to react too it won't be wrong.

Dan start to join in various courses and music schools to master his voice, studying contemporary singing, classical singing, piano, music theory and music composition. Brazilian Singer, he sing all styles, operas, pops, ballads, folks, heavy and power metal, NERSUM DOMA, THE MUSIC IN THE NIGHT, GETHSEMANE JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, IS FANTASTIC, TKS YOUR REACT.

Hes the best metal singer ever❤Amazing Dan Vasc ❤️ Hail Vasc Nation

Welcome to Vasc Nation! This guy can sing EVERYTHING.

Very astute comments! Thanks for your reaction. I’m a longtime voice junkie and nobody has impressed me so much for years. He really can do it all - folk (Loch Lomond), Broadway (Music of the Night, or the Gethsemane scene from Jesus Christ Superstar) classical (a very respectable Nessun Dorma), tons of rock and metal covers, and terrific metal versions of songs that I never thought much of, like Belinda Carlisle’s Heaven Is a Place on Earth or Adele’s Rolling in the Deep. All the Witcher songs are great, and I’m not even a follower. I LOVE Angels We Have Heard on High. Looking forward to more Dan!

Next Dan Vasc NEEDS to be "Angels We Have Heard On High". Trust me, you have never heard it sung with such passion. You will be blown away. Easily my favorite rendition of this old hymn.

If you check the credits Dan did all instruments and mixed with his vocals.

Dan Vasc is the best singer and performer out there. You could pick anything that interests you and you won't be disappointed. But for your next foray you might want to check out "Ill Make a Man Out of You".

Dan sings all music with total conviction to his craft and with all his heart. His is my favorite version of this hymn. Other suggestions of his music: Disney's 'I'll Make a Man Out of You' from the animated version of Mulan, Angels We Have Heard on High, music from Phantom of the Opera and The Greatest Showman, and even "Wuthering Heights"! That one shocked me, but like the others was totally amazing!

And let's not forget his Hallelujah Chorus as a one man choir! And Music of the Night, and... and... (you get the idea).

Now you know why you should check him out. ☺Dan has over 200 songs on his channel. I suggest "Toss a coin to your Witcher" METAL version, his lastest Metal cover "The Number of the Beast" .If you like Opera, please listen to his "Nessun Dorma". Await the unexpected!

I normally cannot listen to metal. Dan Vasc is one of the exceptions. I am in awe of his talents; not only his voice, but his instrument prowess. Thanks, Cole, for reacting to Dan Vasc. One of my favorite performances of "Amazing Grace". eov My all-time favorite was live in summer of 1979 at a music festival in State College/University Park PA. I was a grad student. There was a young man playing harmonica who started playing "Amazing Grace" in the traditional tempo. )Reminded me of bagpipes then, just like Dan Vasc's version.) After the first verse, he took the song to New Orleans Jazz style. Wow! And he could sing, too!

I'm old... and not a metal fan. But I love Dan! I'll Make a Man Out of You (from Mulan) is powerful and epic, Angels We Have Heard on High is stunning, Scarborough Fair is mesmerizing, and Burn Butcher Burn is awesome!

Like a few of the other comments I’m not a fan of heavy metal, these guy has completely changed my mind, his voice is amazing he can sign anything, as yet I’ve not heard a song I don’t like. The harmonica was his father’s who passed he sings Elvis’s trilogy for his father it’s beautiful. I live kiss from a rose, nessa Dorma. Your reaction was good thank you

Great reaction. Dan is phenomenal. Welcome to the Dan Vasc rabbit hole. You won't be disappointed! His preferred genre is metal, but he sings everything from opera, to acoustic music, to metal.

So now you can check Dan Vasc's "Nessun Dorma". "Surpriiiiise" !!!! 🥰

Great first time reaction to Dan! Check out Kiss from a rose, Toss a coin (from Witcher), Nessun Dorma (opera), Dawn over a new world - anything he's done has been wonderful.

Dan Vasc gave an old song new life! It speaks to all generations, young & not so young! It's my favorite rendition I have ever heard.

If you react to Dan Vasc, his people will come…

Thank you so much. I can't get through a day now without listening to Dan Vasc.

This is the best version of this song, i had ever, ever heard. Dan ist incredible. Thank you for your great reaction ! 😊

You can do wrong picking any of his songs. Such a great talent. He funny too, some of his songs feature a few words after the song. His American Trilogy is awesome, done a week after his fathers death (he loved Elvis) and so emotional with tears in his eyes.

A Hymn that has waited for around 250 years to be sung with the passion and praise that is deserving from someone finding and seeing the light for the 1st time.. thank you for your reaction to this amazing Brazilian progressive rock/metal singer, that could honestly sing the phonebook and it would be tremendous, everything from Disney to Turandot and back again is in his covers, a God given talent for sure

What Dan does with this song is a perfect word picture of the journey that Newton, the author took, from confused slave trading sinner in a life theatening storm, to an increasingly confident believer, to a firebrand preacher noted for his sermons. I have not yet been disappointed by any of Dan's covers, and with Christmas coming he has a number of holiday works, including becoming the entire Handel's Hallelujah choir BY HIMSELF.

His harmonica was given to him by his father and I believe it's a slide diatonic harmonica. And you are right, it almost gives it a bagpipe sound! I'm a total music snob, gotta have perfect pitch, breath control, range, understanding of the dynamics of the music and Dan has it all!

His father gave him that harmonica when he was about 7 years old. Check his Sabaton arrangement. Check out what the song is about. Powerful. Dan has done several songs with the Christian rock band Petra also.

Dan Vasc is incredible! So glad you did this reaction. Please check out his other covers. I love his version of Bring Me To Life, I'll Make a Man Out of You, Music of the Night, Nessun Dorma, and so many more! All excellent!

DAN ALSO SINGS OPERA !! YOU SHOULD LISTEN THE TRIBUTE FOR HIS DEAR FATHER -AMERICAN TRILOGY AFTER HE PASSED AWAY - BEAUTIFUL !! SINGS WITH TEARS IN HIS EYES !!

The best rendition of "Amazing Grace"!❤❤ Dan is extremely versatile and sings from all genres. He also did a few Witcher sings, I would suggest "Burn Butcher Burn". So glad you enjoyed this and can't wait for more Dan reactions, thank you

l love dan vasc's voice his vocal range range goes from d2-b5 he can easily go from baritone to tenor he does everthin from opera to metal and he be the lead singer of his band called fearless l listen to dan vasc both solo and with fearless on spotify and amazon music the harmonica was a gift from his dad when he was like 7 his breath control be mad crazy too and l also love his vibrato

Great reaction! In addition to all the wonders of Dan that have been mentioned, he sings in at least 7 languages that I have heard. Adeste Fidelis (O, Come All Ye Faithful) is in Latin, Angels We Have Heard on High is in Italian, German, Portuguese, English and Latin. He also has songs in Japanese and Spanish. His range is 4 octaves. His breath control is amazing. In Amazing Grace, he belts out the last note for about 22 seconds. In Black Wind Fire and Steel, he plays around with the last note for 30 seconds. You will get many new subscribers by reacting to Dan. We all love watching the look of wonder on the faces of new reactors as “Dan does Dan things” to music.

You’ve got to go listen to he is American trilogy cover of Elvis His father loved Elvis and this was his favorite song. His dad had passed away five days before. You can see how emotional he is It is beautiful

As another commenter wrote, welcome to VascNation. Please check out his covers of "Sounds of Silence" "Music of the Night" "Rollin' in the Deep" "Angels We Have Heard on High" "Nessun Dorma" You won't be disappointed.

Dan Vasc is an incredible artist ❤

You should check out Dan's Gethsemane, Burn Butcher Burn or the One Man Choir. He can cover every genre!

To get a better look at his range and talent, watch The One Man Choir, Hallelujah Chorus!!!

Dan is an amazing vocalist who can sing everything from Opera to Metal! He has over 200+ covers on his channel. Everything he does sounds amazing! His Witcher covers are really good as are his metal covers. You really can’t go wrong with any Dan song you choose. Great reaction and looking forward to more from Dan. 🎶🎶

Dan is so, so, good at everything he does ❤

I found Dan with this song, I’m now addicted to every nuance of his vocals! I never listened to metal until Dan. But I have to hear every growl, grit and epic screams! Go to I’ll make a man out if you- he makes that one epic and throws in some signature vocals. Then go to the metal covers of Witcher songs … and throw in some opera with Music of the Night! Can’t go wrong, his voice and expression with music is phenomenal!

He is phenominal. I love him. His voice still makes me cry. 😊

You have GOT to do Gethsemane. It’s an unimaginably provocative performance. It will take your breath away!!

I am SOOOO glad you finally reacted to Dan Vasc! I discovered him several months ago and I can not get over his talent. (I was sort of like you in automatically assuming metal everything.) I hope you’ll add Adeste Fidelis by Dan to your Christmas music list. His version of Love Me Tender (Elvis) is beautiful and his introduction to it almost as much so. His I’ll Make a Man Out of You is one of my favorites because it is so fun. He does a whole lot lot of classic rock into 80s rock covers. I recently purchased his band’s album and I need a road trip so that I can listen to it straight through. Thanks, Cole! The notification for this popped up while I was still at work and I couldn’t wait to get home and watch.

About time you finally listened to Dan. His preference is metal, but he does all genres. He is really great at taking along and including a bit of metal - uplifting the song in the process.

Totally amazing. This will be sung at my funeral .

It was through Amazing Grace that I found Dan Vasc. So much talent! Absolutely love his voice/performances. I'm subscribing and can't wait for your next Dan Vasc reaction.

he's just amazing

Opera - Nessun Dorma, The last goodbye. Stage - Gethsemane, Phantom of the opera, Beauty and the beast. Disney - I'll make a man out of you (Mulan). TV Series - Witcher songs. Contempory - Loch Lomond, Love me tender, others as well. Female - Bring me back to life, zombie, Hello, Rolling in the deep etc. Church - Handels Hallelujah, Angels we have heard on high. (2 more on Orions Reign Channel). Others that is very good. Kiss from a rose ft Violet Orlandi, living on a prayer, sound of silence. Passionately - Sleeping sun. Fun - Pour some sugar on me. Breath control - Black wind, fire and steel. Original - Where eagles fly (Confessori channel). Also does the Star Spangled banner (as a non American, like this rendition). So much more to react and see. His first video he left on his channel, so that people can see the growth he had since he started out.

Love Dan Vasc. Outstanding vocals

Enjoyed the reaction, would love for you to choose Fairy Tale as your next selection ( the one from five years ago I believe) Thumbnail is in a suit coat. He did the song years before that but perfected it in the later one.

Welcome to Vasc Nation join the family

First of all... I'm blown away by the song over and over again ❤️. His passion is metal. However, it covers every genre, i.e. H. Rock, pop with metal, opera wow, wow and again wow and everything in between. My recommendation... "The Music of the Night" - Phantom of the Opera cover or "Time To Say Goodbye" - Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman cover or Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen covers... World class. His current song is "The Number of the Beast, Original by Iron Maiden.... Great 🤘. Great reaction and would like more from Dan Vasc. The selection is huge 👌

Loved your genuine first time listening reaction , plus comments. If (actually, when) you listen again you'll start noticing the narrative of the spiritual journey from timid through to holy cowabunga dude. From avg choir boy to professional singer. He portrays how timid he felt at the 1st step of the journey, yet had enough beginners faith to complwte it through. Notice how the music joined him, complemented him, didnt rattle him. He just gave it his all, every step of the way & his all grew stronger & stronger. Excellent story teller as well as vocalist & music arrangementer. 🎶 Thank you for sharing! I'm an addicted follower of Dan's songs & reactions to Dan's songs, who hopes to visit your place again in the future. Subscribed!

Humble and Kind by Tim McGraw

Welcome to a wonderful journey with Dan. ❤ You will be blown away every time. 😊

thanks, i like when i can learn a few things about music and singing vocabulary.

: ) !!!! Yes Sir!!! Nearly the exact same reaction as I had... same thoughts too!!! I've listened the 1st time and have watched others .... and each time -- chills!!! Not knowing what to expect, I also held off on a listen (same reasons!) but it just kept popping up and I finally gave in. OMG when I did give in --- Have Mercy!!! Not offending in anyway! Tasteful and deliberate! I do say that is "style", although I do prefer Peter/HF collab as the "mostest" ... This has a different place simply due to "delivery", and gosh it's good! The other "listens" after - for "special", I didn't find that -- although good covers, not much changed really -- but really good covers. : ) Be Safe *the Edit --- Impressive yes, mighty impressive with particular genres (from the norm!).. vocals are very impressive and clear!

Please check out his Nessum Dorma!

Oh sooo nice to meet you Cole! I feel so blessed in finding another first listen to Dan’s Amazing Grace. After it’s dropping last April, social media blew up and I was a happy bystander to the explosion of Dan Vasc. I was grinning so huge at around 3:09 when you said “when he goes, when he puts more power into the tone, I prefer that..” because I knew you had NOT even begun to hear power. 😂. What a delicious feeling of anticipation on my part. Dan simply pours his soul into this old hymn as is so clearly evident, giving it such renewed power and life. The utter magic of Dan’s Amazing Grace is his oh so talented vision that obliterates the opinion that heavy metal and gospel hymns cannot coexist. They can! They do! Dan did it! I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated your expressions and dialogue and am a happy new sub here 😊 Looking forward to more Dan from you.

I would also suggest Dan's covers from Phantom of the Opera. Let's just say he can act as well!

More more Dan Vasc simply amazing

Dan is truly incredible - so many powerful performances in his 200+ covers over the last 12 years... You will never be disappointed listening/watching Dan! Highly recommend: Gethsemane (epic!), My Mother Told Me, Battle Hymn, Hallelujah (he does ALL the parts), Nessun Dorma, any of the Nightwish covers - so many more. Dan usually does the drums and mix, films each song a minimum of 3 times in his garage studio. He's from Brazil. Took lessons worked seriously hard to get this good. He is so talented and a pure joy to watch! You can get lost in his facial expressions and body language - he gives 200% to every performance. Do more! Enjoy his collection!

He is awesome with anything that he sings He is amazing❤

Best rendition EVER! Dan is the real deal - total rock God from Brazil. ❤❤❤

He did Nessum Dorma as well👍👍👍👍👍

Fantastic reaction from you!!!

Love your reaction. Next would be Dawn over a new world, of Bring me to life

He also sings pop, ballads, 80's rock, fantasy and opera.

LOVED your reaction. Dan is awesome! Just heard about him through this song 3 months ago. I love trans Siberian orchestra too. I’ve seen them in concert. Dan is worth looking into.

Gethsemane, Angels we have heard on high, Beaty and the beast, Dawn over a new World, Son of pain, American Trilogy, check out everything you can't fail he is so so fantastic in every genre!!!!!!!!!!!Vasc Nation 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

I love love the way he sings and makes it his own! Call me crazy but I will listen to him singing Amazing Grace throughout the day.❤

He infuses his music with love and we feel it when we listen.

Really enjoyed your reaction tonight. So much fun to view first-timers on this song in particular as it was also my first introduction to the incredible Dan Vasc. Get ready for the most fun roller coaster ride of music with this artist who can do it ALL and do it to perfection!!! 😊 since you are southern, you would appreciation his cover of the Elvis American Trilogy which he did as a tribute to his dad a few days after he passed away. It is a very moving rendition.

Listen to Dan's Star Bangled Banner

Listen to his other songs.

Gonna start asking Dan under every video i watch... can you sing MARY DID YOU KNOW for Christmas? If you're a Dan fan and want to hear it too... help me ask ❤🙏

I have seen him on many reactors channels and until you I have just passed them by. So this is my first time hearing Dan. This brought tears to my eyes. Heavy Metal isn't my favorite either but having listened to David Draiman from Disturbed, I thought I would try Dan since you did lol. It blows my mind that these guys both go to that really heavy side of their music when they both clearly have amazing voices and range! Going to see where you go next and not forge ahead on my own. Just because I want to see where our roads diverge....Thank you Cole as always for your willingness to give something new a try.

The real test, IMO, is Gethsemane. That’s a very difficult song and he sings it like it was written for him. Loved the reaction!! I’m glad you will be doing more!

I just subscribed because of this vid! I’m not a real metal fan but his musical performance choices fan my flame for creative music!

Check out Loch Lomond!

As much as I love DV, I also LOVE "first time hearing" reactions; GREAT JOB!! Really enjoyed your honesty, too. ♥♥

Great reaction! Check out "My Mother Told Me" and "I'll Make a Man Out Of You". Both awesome1

Not sure how I missed this reaction. So great. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Aloha and I love your reaction to Dan Vasc. I never listened to metal before Dan but he makes it easy to listen to. Another singer that I think you might like, that is rated the best voice in the world, is Dimash Qudaibergen from Kazakhstan. He mixes various genres into his songs and sings in many different languages. Never liked opera before I started listening to him: SOS, Sinful Passion, Stranger to start. I think you will enjoy this unique talent! Good luck on your channel!

Amazing 🔥Dan is mind-blowing singer. Check out his Music of the Night, Fairy Tale, I’ll make a man out of you, Adeste Fideles, Number of the Beast 🔥🔥🔥

Please check out Nessum Dorma. It touches the soul.

he has str8 up said he is a christian so yeah he means what he is saying

I love it!
