I am so pleased that at last I hear someone who, like me, cannot see any comparison between Lara and Celine. Their interpretive abilities, their vocal technique, the tone of their voices are all so different. Celine is a good singer but for me she is not in the same league as Lara.

She’s telling you her mom and dad are celebrating 30 years of marriage. Then how much they believed in her talent.

You know that that is the song she was requested to sing in her first appearance in Montreal on Valentine's night at a major TV show. There was a snow storm that night, everyone was locked home, and she had over 3 millions viewers discovering her. While she had sold 10,000 copies of her first album in two years, 100,000 copies were sold in the following week... As they say, the rest is history. You can find that performance on youtube...

best comparison of Lara and Celine I've ever heard - wish i would have said it - my (maybe poorly worded) verbal comparison is " Celine is great, talented, and all you can want .... but sings commercially acceptable while Lara is also great, ultra talented, but with her you want more ,,, she sings from her heart and my heart hears.

She has a really rich speaking voice, which translates directly into a rich singing voice.

In the beginning, she told that once a young man from Northern Europe met a girl from Southern Europe. They fell in love and got married. These two are her parents, and they are celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary this very day. They are in the auditory, and so she will sing the next song as a gift for them.

Ah ah, that’s funny. I always tell myself that if Lara was to record a bedtime stories audiobook, I’d buy it for me, not for my kids. She has a distinctive voice when she’s talking compared to when she’s singing. But her speaking voice is super soothing to me. Every time I have watched her in interviews, no matter the language, it’s like a peaceful harmony in my brain. 😊

Don't Forget, she's an angel. She's singing for hers parents. Thanks for your reaction.

Yeah I also like her voice when she talks, now when she is older even more. I could listen to her forever. She is also very smart and it's a plus if you can see her interviews translated it English. Lara adores her parents and this song was for them

Yes, she is really unique.

she's celebrating their 30th aniversary :-)

Whitney and others have covered this song but It's Lara that is my favorite. Her tone, resonance, command of her voice and emoting always wins me over.

Yes... Lara is the best. 👍

IN THE SAME CONCERT she song barbra "s streisand songs. that was amazing

JMO - she is so underrated here in the US yet she is the best singer out there

Her parents were there in the audience and they were celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary. She was signing to them.

Before the pandemic I met Lara in person! Such a nice and down to earth person! Will remember that day forever!

Your description of the differences are superb. I feel the same way when I listen to Lara, she’s telling the story of the song just to me.

Her parents were there, the songs was for them.

2:13 FRENCH CANADIAN MODE ACTIVATED 🤣On t'aime Lara 💕

She was singing to her parents, it was their 30th anniversary of the life together

Hi I find that you are one of these rare persons who is really connected to Lara's art. Indeed, you notice each and every single and subtle details that others don't. Moreover you don't just react to her most famous songs but you pay attention to other songs which are less known. Please react to live performances of "comme ils disent" (a cover of a famous song and which not demonstrates her vocal abilities but rather her acting abilities) and "Bambina" (which is an other side of her vocal talents in high notes) Keep on doing the Great Job! Thank you so much for all your reactions

she's the best singer in the entire world

OMG! I love this amazing woman. Thanks.

In the same concert, she sings the songs from the movie Yentl. Listen to it, it is just incredible! If you are a Barbra Streisand fan, you will not regret it!

She was singing for her parents. And by the way, you definitively need to watch her performance in this song "Lara Fabian & Johnny Hallyday - Requiem pour un fou (English subtitles)" Live in 1998 in Stade de France in front of 80,000 peoples kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLhhpc6lxJbGmXU.html You will see a powerfull performance from both signers. and you can check this other version on a TV show preceding the big show. Johnny Halliday ask Lara to join him on the big show after this performance. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hZZpo5yYuanKmHk.html

Once again, you give a really nice reaction: I'm glad you became a fan of Lara, you talk about her so well, I hope your comments will reach Lara's ears one day !!! As other reviewers have also said, you make a great comparison between Lara and Celine and thank you again for sharing your admiration for her with us. See you soon and have a nice day.

Just when I thought I’ve heard the best of her, WOWSERS BRILLIANT!💃🏻😃💕🙏🏼

I wonder what Whitney and Dolly may have thought about this rendition.... About that eternal comparison of Lara with Celine - I too do not see so many similarities. After listening to the ladies for more than thirty years, I tend to think that it is a typical media thing, something to write about. Funny enough, I discovered both the same evening in 1988 when they took part in the European Song Contest.

She just sang for the 30th wedding anniversary of her parents sitting in the audience. Her mother coming from the south of Europe, Italy, and her father coming from the north of Europe, Belgium. They always believed in her daughter to become an artist, a singer. Now she is, she thanks them and tells them how much she loves them.

What a great way to describe Lara’s version! 5:29 I totally agree ❤

Your insights are really refreshing. You say things that I felt but didn’t have the words for. Thank you 🙏. I never could see the comparison either. Every artist is so unique.

Love your reactions and love her treatment of this song here. It was originally written and sung by Dolly Parton. This version is a wonderful mixture of the pathos, intimacy and technique of Dolly's version and a bit more of the vocal "performance" that makes the song so special.

First off loved this reaction.....Lara is one of the best ever and your comment about her comparison to Cline is so on point, very differnt singers.

Good grief... just when I thought I couldn’t love your reactions to Lara anymore than I already do... I see this one! ❤️ Thank you for pointing out how DIFFERENT Celine and Lara are. Both are wonderful, true... but they shouldn’t be compared because they are sooooo different! Lara is (obviously) #1 in my book. She was signing to her parents who were in the audience that night, celebrating their 30th anniversary. I do plan on joining the Patreon soon!! A little gift for myself hahahaha I can’t wait to binge watch your reactions to everything Lara. Thanks again! Keep going!! Lara’s Vocalise (2010 in Moscow) is something I hope you react to... completely different.. no lyrics.. just her beautiful voice, amazing music and powerful emotions. I cannot wait!!!!

Awesome stuff. You have done a fair bit of Lara, thank you. She is simply the best ever. You are however missing a straight up mastepiece...perdere l'amore...watch the one with subtitles as the song is unbeliebably beautiful, sung to perfection (as always by Lara), in perfect italian. A mastercalss in performance and execution on a great great song.

She sings it as a tribute to her parents for 30 years of marriage . He explained it earlier when he spoke in French: P

Yes this song for her parents .She said in the beigining ,she w'll try not to cry for the second time .You see you're not the only one who cry went she sing

Totally agree. Great comparison between Celine and Lara

Thank you for sharing ! 👌👍👍👍😉👍👍👍

I agree 💯 with what you said about the comparison between Lara and Celine. People always say that to me and I say not really. I love Lara I just like Celine.

No words needed.❤️❤️❤️

Love Lara Fabian. Her and Celine are cut from the same cloth. Xxxx

She dedicates this song to her parents for their 30th, wedding anniversary. 💜

Celine is like a Swiss watch, very precious, always on point, very elegant, but a little without soul and cannot move me.

Poor Guitarist! "Get outta the way you! I'm not here for YOU!" Hilarious. Nothing tops Whitney's original, but what I notice here is the contrast. You're right; Lara has a more 'intimatist' style. Also Whitney's transitions are very definite and dramatically marked, whereas Lara's are more smooth & fluid. I suspect that this reflects not only their individual styles but also their different vocal training. For me they're both incredible & mesmerising artist's & 'Equal Firsts' !

You’re just right on the spot with your comparison. Great reaction!

❤️❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷 adoro suas reações! Muito bonito ver como você se emociona !

Hi, thank u again for this lovely reaction of one of the greatest singer in the world Lara Fabian. Please if u don't mind can u listen to Yentl sang by Lara in the same concert of the one u showed in ur video. I'm very curious to see ur reaction & ur analysis. Thank u for sharing all these videos with us. Ur just a great & very sensitive man. Best regards.

Love the way you love french singers….thank you from germany ans France…..best democracies of the d’orléanaise …. Love from Montpellier France not vermont

God, she could sing that night.

Another great reaction to the Fantastic Fabian. You know, before a couple of years ago when I discovered Fabian and was immediately blown away, I had really liked many singers but there was only one who stopped me in my tracks. I'm programmed to love contraltos (which made my instant enchantment with the lyric Fabian extra unique) and Sarah Vaughan was a masterful contralto with a 4 octave range. A master of technique, like Fabian. And a Sassy performer (her nickname). I'm wondering if you would consider bringing a reaction to her to your chanel to spread awareness of one of the all-time greats in American music? I gave a lot of thought on what song to recommend to those new to her and settled on one that 1) is a song I HATED in its original Broadway and film incarnations (hated!) and 2) Vaughan sings in a style that is just NOT my favorite: cool jazz. It's Maria from West Side Story, and in Vaughan's hands, it's a masterpiece imo. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n9WbocmD0K-UnY0.html Then of course I hope you do 293 more Fabian reactions too. 🤣

Lara is doing so great in this performance, nothing to reject but in my opinion, no one can surpass Whitney's headvoice transition in this song :))

Lara❤

Wow! ❤

And, yes, the flowers. Throwing the bouquet was a mistake. You never give a gift you've just received...

Such a beautiful woman with an extra beautiful voice!

Céline is a diva Lara is a human being

Thank you so much.

No one did that song justice like the Voice Whitney. Lara is great but Whitney was incredibly gifted and that's why that songs is the best selling soundtrack and single of all time.

Great reaction! Keep going..Lara has so much material to listen to! I loved your comparison of Lara to Celine. It was a great way to describe their differences as I get tired of people always trying to say they are alike! My only suggestion to you would be to lose the snacks or leave them in the cupboard until after the reaction. It's petty I know but it annoyed me....you have patreons now ,

You are right - for me also is no comparasion between Lara and Celine. Lara's voice is warm (like someone said - like a warm blancket over your shoulder). Celine never gives me that. Lara does it every time. Not to talk about delivering the lyricks... (sporry for my english, I am slovene).

Perfect 👍🏼 said! New follower here and I as U - The comparison is Not To be even done as their ways are Completely uncomparable!!! 💜❤️💕

In terms of performance with song, James Blunt Monsters (either official video, or one of the live studio versions he got out before the great pestilence over came us all) is worth looking at. Blunt, whether one likes him or not, is one of he most consistent performers I've seen.

Reaction Love by grace.❤👍

Celine Dion isn't isn't even in her lane. Celine can not do everything Lara can do but Lara can do anything Celine can do and much much more! Just saying, and not even getting into how attractive and absolutely, unbelievably stunning and beautiful Lara is, Celine does possess these traits only Lara Fabian does! Truth reins!

🎶👍🐺🧙‍♂️🦊🤙🎶 Tooootaly awesome! A-Mazing!! An A(+)!!! On this ...and the intro spoke, on many things,but, how this cover is a " chason" a story telling piece!! ANNNDD ,it is/ was Performed perfectly as such!! 🎶🦊🧙‍♂️🐺🎶

hi from Brooklyn NY; Where are the musical genises to compose for Lara and for Floor together!!!!

Lara Fabian is amazing! Please, react to Lara Fabian, Dimash and Aida Garifulina performing Ti Amo Cosi!

Mom and dad on 30th anniversary.

This video must be like 30 years ago. I am still wondering why you all guys choose very old videos from her. You all say because it was her best years. But she released maybe 8 albums since then. This voice you hear doesn't exist anymore. She doesn't sing like that now. And that's normal. She aged. It would be interesting to react to nowadays songs and see how her voice sounds now. Not 30 years ago.

2:32 She is saying, "Alor" _not_ "Hello" or "Allo(alo)" or some variation etc. "Alor" is a filler, bridge word/expression akin to saying "(and) so"/"then" in English

Hi, I think the bouquet was an impulse at the moment, a way to thank in return the audience but I felt sad for the folk who gave it to her … At least she took it.

Whitney does this better but this is live performance which makes a difference - Lara is the most passionate singer I've ever heard - Vocally Celine a is little more nasally but they do have similar sound at times - What sets Lara apart is the incredible emotion in her voice

Oooh so beautiful Please react to Celine Dion greatest of love in 2013

Did you really write, “originally by Whitney Houston”? Dolly Parton wrote this song (words & music), and recorded it in 1973. Her original, tender, heartfelt version is so much better than Whitney Houston's overblown, bombastic cover that there's no contest. Unfortunately, Lara follows some of the stylistic corruptions introduced by the cover version, rather than the simple, intimate beauty of the original. But then, Lara can sing anything, and does a superb job here, as always.

Vous avez tellement raison. Il faut arrêter de comparer Lara avec Céline. Je ne comprend pas pourquoi on la compare tout le temps et pas avec d'autres chanteuses. Parce que les deux parlent français et chantent en anglais ? Plusieurs ont déjà nommé que lorsque Lara a voulu percer aux USA, on lui a mis des "bâtons dans les roues" comme on dit, de peur qu'elle ne concurrence trop Céline. Je ne serais pas surprise vu le "pouvoir" qu'avait René Angélil dans le milieu artistique. Et oui, Céline chante bien, mais elle a une voix beaucoup plus nasillarde. Lara a une voix "pure". De plus, non seulement Lara a une voix parfaite, elle chante avec ses tripes et avec passion, ce que peu font aussi bien, mais en plus, elle a de multiples talents, entre autres elle compose des chansons, ce que Céline n'a jamais fait. Pour ma part, Lara sera toujours la meilleure. :-) D'ailleurs, Céline n'est pas la plus grande chanteuse au monde, cela me fait bien rire quand je lis ça.....Il y en a en masse qui chante aussi bien et même plus qu'elle.....elle est la plus connue, ce n'est pas pareil. ;-)

LOL - judged by his solo, the guitarist probably is at the wrong venue ;-D

Please compare her to Barbra Streisand…. Who is a huge fan of lara

Thumbs down. This was NOT originally by Whitney Houston. This was a cover by Whiney Houston. I don't think Whiney Houston ever did anything that wasn't a cover. This song was written and sung by Dolly Parton in the 70's when Whitney was a kid.

Elle chantait pour ses parents dans la salle

try his, just with guitar kzfaq.info/get/bejne/asWPjdJoybmzfJc.html , or just a piano kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p5djrctk0be5ZYk.html or more dancy kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNt-g72os5eXgWQ.html, and oher super songs like adagio , love by grace , perdere l'amore, broken vow, caruso , and je t(aime, Mademoiselle Hyde , etc etc etc

Hey ! my friend, would you stop snackink during this amazing performance !

What are you eating and did you bring enough to share? : )

She's great, but she's no Celine Dion.

Stupid comments here. Impossible to hear the song completly . This guy stops the video constantly For what ?? ..... poor Lara
