I tell you a thing or two, as a musician with a masters in music and credits toward a doctorate, I know a quality performance when I see and hear one, I spent a lifetime analyzing what makes good music and good performance shine, the discipline, the hours of practice, the sacrifices, the physical make up of the vocal cords, breathing, diaphragmatic muscles, this kind of performance is not attainable by the likes of say a Bruce Springteen and Madonna, etc., this one sent shivers down my spine, superb, top shelf, the best, believe me when I tell you because I know, be proud because when human beings can attain expression to this level, know that there is a God, thank you for that wonderful performance.

It is not just that he has a powerful, beautiful voice. It is that he knows how to pour himself into his music and express it with his soul.

Our parents were alcoholics and when I was 11, I had to be both mom and dad to my 3 younger brothers, it was hard, but I was the oldest, so it was up to me. Somehow, and only by the grace of the good Lord, I was able to do a pretty good job, with the help of my grandma and my aunt. They became my kids so to speak, this was somewhat normal for the 60's and 70's. We all graduated, I went to mortuary college, the brother a year younger than me became a welder and a top-notch chef, the middle brother taught the guitar, drums, harmonica and he was a vocal coach, the youngest brother became a mechanic. In 1994 we lost our grandma and in 2016 we lost our aunt, in 2017 the brother a year younger than me passed away, he was only 58, in 2018 I lost our middle brother, he was only 56 this almost killed me, it was almost like burying 2 of my own kids. Every time I hear this song, I think of them, not a day goes by that I don't miss them.

From Idaho here… I am a 81-year-old grandma who is so in love with your voice, your beautiful face and the incredible presentation you have… Keep on keeping on.

Dude, do not hide your god given talent. I appreciate all your covers showing your vocal prowess. Where were you hiding all these years?

I have heard this song by Il Divo and Dan's voice with so much richness far surpasses both Bocelli and Il Divo's versions. Your Italian father is watching you from heaven and is very proud of the artist and the man you have become.

Damn, is there anything this man can't do? I'm in awe

I never tire of listening to Dan's voice!

Ask and you shall receive. Well, maybe xD Keep letting me know what you wanna hear, my friends!

I am a huge Bocelli fan. I never thought that I could enjoy this song from anyone else, but man... Beautiful, great breathe control. Bravo And the soprano was wonderful

My father passed from cancer in 1998. My huge Italian family were there. Once he was unconscious, we played Bocelli for him night and day. As he was about to pass, we surrounded his bed and played, "Time to Say Goodbye". It has such special meaning for me. Thank you for this treasure.

DAN VASC your voice knows no limits. I love rock, heavy metal and classical music equally amongst others, such as Elvis Presley. You are very special, a gift to us from God. The lady singing with you is also world-class like you! Thank you for sharing your gifts ❤ 🙏

Dan is more than Andrea's equal. This is outstanding!!!!!

When we hear Dan singing Amazing Grace we know God is speaking through Him and we are privileged to listen. This confirms my faith every day!

Anything that says "Goodbye" reminds me of my sons - they both died August of 1999. Sure miss those boys!!! You sing beautiful! Both of you do. You are very blessed to have been raised like that!!

Dan Vasc I have no words! You make my heart dance. I listen to your music everyday! You are a gift from God!❤

I am late to this party! I just stumbled upon Mr. Vac two days ago on You Tube. I have listened to him sing as well as talk. This man is the real deal from what I can tell. His voice is very versatile and powerful. I am going to spread the word about him so he can reach his goal of 1,000,000 viewers. God bless him. The first time I heard this song was at a concert two years ago and Charles Billingsley sang it with an opera singer. I cried. Very moving song. These two young artist made it even better. Kudos to them! ❤

This was exceptionally beautiful. Your dad is so proud of you, Dan.

Vocals. Lyrics. Melody. Tempo. SPECTACULAR!!!!

Dan your voice is richer and more beautiful than Bocelli's. You have an inner authenticity which shines through your performances. I particular love your more classical repertoire....please do more! You touch this commentator ( who has taught singing for 50 years and only rarely comes across a voice like yours). My only reservation is .. how is the voice if not amplified? Perhaps more beautiful!❤

Damn! How do you listen to this without crying? Great performance and voices. Thanks for sharing!

2023 I have not words to describe what I just heard. EPIC. Love from South Africa

Wish Dan vasc can make more covers like these he really has the voice for it

I have no idea to this day what this two beautifull people are singing about. Truth is i dont want to know, some things are best left unsaid♡ I like to think they are singing about something so beautifull it can't be expressed in words and makes your heart ache because of it♡

Can't stand you anymore mate 😂 every time I watch you I cry so sick of having red eyes. Love u 2 your amazing ❤❤

PERFECTION! What a beautiful duet. A very moving performance!

This honestly deserves more views! I'm not trying to discredit the 729K, but honestly, how has this not broken 1 million yet?

My beautiful wife took her own life in 2008, just nine days after we married. While we dated, before moving in together, she played this song before she left. I found it fitting to play it at her funeral. I miss her so...😢

@volcanovin thank you for your excellent analysis of the epic Dan Vasc. You say what I feel in my heart every time I listen to him. He is not one in a million. He is one in a lifetime. Simply STUNNING in every way! His pursuit of excellence at every level is on full display in a piece such as this. Besides being a phenomenal vocalist, He creates the arrangements, most often plays the instruments, records, masters, films, edits,markets … The list goes on and on. Dan is a class act and a RARE one. Thank you so much for your support. Please keep listening and liking and let’s keep his stats up!

Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman would be very pleased with this performance!!

I am not ready to say goodbye specifically to someone you love. My son he passed away in October 28, 2021. I am not ready to accept that and not ready to say goodbye. He is only 41 or going to be 41. This song is made me feel cherished our memories and loved to my son Markus.

Unbelievable! No one compares to Andrea Bocelli but he sure did!!!! Your range is just unbelievable!!! I have no words. Just goose bumps!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I think this is my favorite one yet and I'm watching all of your videos.

Crying. We played this at my best friend's funeral after he was killed in a head on collision. He was in his mid 30s and had lived such an amazing and talented life.

This performance sings to my soul, calling for tears of joy. My heart is at peace.....

I too, love this song...My mother, my sister, my daughter & myself went to see Andrea Bocelli live at the Hollywood Bowl when this song was first made popular in America...It's a wonderful memory that I'll never forget...You and Ms. Stillnight sang it beautifully. 💞💖💞

I have listened to this cover before. I am positively shocked that it hasn't received more likes. Such a glorious version of this classic should have much more honor paid to it. Thank you Dan for making this video which I will continue to enjoy. 😊🎶

AWESOME! A very moving duet! Rehn, you are beautiful. Dan you are handsome! This performance takes my breath away and sends chills down my spine!

I have chills. And tears. Absolutely beautiful.

You two just nailed this one! This may sound overly poetic to some, but honestly, it felt like I was listening to the Sun and Moon singing. You guys have stunning voices, 'nuff said. 😁👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Boeta, you have an incredible talent. Never stop singing for all of us around the world. Marianne South Africa 🇿🇦

Absolutely beautiful. A perfect combination of two stunning vocals. Just want to listen over and over. 😊❤❤

I was like: "Holly shit! Her Italian is perfect!". No wonders, she is Italian.

FROM SOUTH AFRICA. YOU ARE UNBELIEVABLE. FANTASTIC. BIG SUPPORT

Rehn is a perfect compliment to-you, Dan.

Dude! I heard your voice and my jaw drop and my heart sank. DEAR LORD! Your voice on this one!!!!! Sublime! ❤️

OH man, I love listening to that song. I don't understand any of the words, but it gives me goosebumps. Rehn and you sound perfect together. You both would be perfect opera singers.

Beautiful Dan. You sang it just as beautifully as Andrea. Thank you for telling us stories about your Father and his Italian Family. Un grande abbracchio per te. Ciao 😊💜💜😊

You are a fantastic vocalist, Dan. Impressive range!

Ms.Stillnight is so lovely and her singing lovelier still and what can can you say of Mr. Vasc but that he shows us again and again in his performances that he is a man of the utmost tenderness.

PERFECTION! What a beautiful duet, very moving! Rehn, you are beautiful! Dan, you are very handsome! BRAVISSIMO!

The vibrato in your voice is beautiful!

Beautiful singing, the woman is very talented and pretty. They did the song justice, the original was played at my dad's funeral

1/5. AN EXCELLENT AND BEAUTIFUL DUET! YOU BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! THANK YOU FOR THIS EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE! THANK YOU!

That boy can really hold a note!

Oh, wow. I don’t even know what to say. I’ve been a fan of that song since it was first released and I’ve loved all of its versions. But THAT was mind blowing. You are perfection.

Dan sings from his heart and soul pours over with strong emotions an inspiration Artist this is beautiful both voices bend beautiful ..

WOW! This such a beautiful duet. Rehn is beautiful! And, Dan you are very handsome! ASTONISHING

I need not understand a single word, yet tears run down my face. Absolutely exquisite.

LOVELY as always. Love your voice. My great gma was from Wales, her parents brought her to America at an early age so she learned English too, but her parents never did so she had to keep the Welsh language going for them. When she'd get mad she fuss in Welsh though. My momma never knew she was Welsh and thought she was FUSSING in Choctaw --American Indian language. We thought we were part Choctaw til a few years ago when I did our genealogy. You're lucky you had your father long enough to tell you all the information on your family. That is a lovely story you told about him .

12/24. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DUET! BRAVO! A VERY EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE. THANK YOU BOTH!

10/11 WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DUET, SONG BY 2 BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! THANK YOU BOTH FOR THIS EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE!

9/29. YOUR VOICE IS A BLESSING TO THE WORLD. THIS IS A WONDERFUL DUET, EMOTIONAL AND BEAUTIFUL!

They make it look so easy…..all the effort, practice, sacrifice are shown in the final product of joy they give to the world.

THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DUET! You both are talented and beautiful! This is such an emotional performance! Rehn you are very beautiful!

Fearless is the perfect adjective in describing you Dan. Just found your site 3 hours a go, and incredible is all I can say. In listening to your rendition of the many songs I’ve listened to, I have already decided that there is no one who comes close to the perfection and quality of doing at least as good, if not much better than the original artist. WOW!! If you ever have time, I would like very much for you to listen to a group of guys from my distant past called Uriah Heep. A few of your vocals brought them up for me. Couple of my favs are “stealing, easy living, sunrise”. When you have time, take a listen. Love ya Dan.

Wow Dan !!! ..................................... The first time I heard you was with your You'll Be in My Heart ........................ You are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I despise opera, but when opera singers with their superb voices and control go outside of their craft the results can be amazing.

I just crossed the country from Florida to the upper peninsula of Michigan. Without my traveling companion Hans. He was so much more than I could of imagined 💔 🐕 & your music 💞 amazing grace started it. Sound of Silence, Bye, Bye, Beautiful. When I wanted to scream. My heart will go on. &&& listening ever since. You are the first subscription I have ever made. My husband supervising. I guess I'm showing my age 😂❤

A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE!!!! PERFECTION!!! HEAVENLY - It literally gave me cold chills!!! BRAVO!!! BRAVO to you both!!! THANK YOU to you both for sharing your INCREDIBLE TALENTS!!! ❤️❤️

OMG, so beautiful it gave me chills! Your vocal range is phenomenal and your annunciation was as clear as I've ever heard, bravo and well done!

Andrea Bocelli I am Celine Dion. What is my favorite version of this song. But I have found my new favorite. This song literally brought me to tears.

You both are fabulous. I have chills all over. What an honor to listen to this song.

I love this song... The version with Andrea Bocelli is one of my favorites ever, but this one is amazing as well! Being of Italian descent, this song also has special meaning to me. My Italian mother introduced me to Bocelli decades ago. She's gone now but this song makes me think of her.

Andrea Bocelli would give this a Standing O...BRAVO Maestro! 😍

Absolutely beautiful! My goodness...gave me goosebumps.

Mesmerising, unbelievable, tears shed. So talented. Xxxx💖💖💖💖

OH, even though I can't understand any foreign language that song makes me so content and happy. I just relax, close my eyes, and smile. It's so wonderful and perfect to me. Thank you for such an amazing voice. ❤😊

Dan! Besides, another epic performance, you touch my heart, so deeply to hear the story of your dad. I am also Italian, and I could not help but laugh as my father would share similar stories. No wonder you have such excellent taste in music since this is what you grew up listening to. Your parents have to be absolutely amazing people to have raised someone like you. I know that your father smiles from Heaven you make your mother glad. They and I are so proud of you ♥️🌹

that is the perfect song with Dan’s stunning voice

Again, WOW double WOW. I love this song. I play all your songs over and over again. I love this man.

My favorite song of all time. Absolutely beautiful.

That was epic! I’ve seen Bocelli and Brightman perform this live in concert and you both did it justice ❤

The two of you sounded wonderful. Y'all harmonize really well. Thank y'all for this beautiful song.

Love that smile on your face while you're singing this didn't know that you had a deep voice a beautiful Opera singing voice.

Absolutely fabulous vocal range.

Love this song, always makes me cry as it has a very deep rooted feeling in my heart.

As an Italian I can say this song does honor Bocelli and you both! Very, very perfect job

Another video that I'm so glad I found. One of my favorite songs. I'm still blown away that you're a heavy metal singer. You have an amazing voice.

I don’t have any such qualifications but I have ears to listen and this is an incredible performance.
