Will Dimash Own The World With His Voice?

Alex Barry (aka Ubervocal) answers this question with his YouTube video. Personally, I believe it too.  He is a complete package of talent, looks and attitude.  He has a strong work ethic. He is kind and humble.  The only thing he hasn't got is wings and a magic wand.  LOL. 

The Hashtag That Has Taken Over My World #TWBDimash

This hashtag #TWBDimash has taken over my social media world.  I've got it everywhere; Twitter, FB, Instagram.. hmm, did I add it to my scattered comments in YouTube?  I bet it even appeared in my Weibo posts.  So who can I blame this on?  CBS, of course.  Specifically 'The World's Best' show. In about two days, Dimash will be performng at the Battle Rounds (Wednesday 9pm EST) and my Twitter account would already be smoking hot and revving to machinegun #TWBDimash.  

Yet Another Dimash Kudaibergen Music Video Filming

Dimash went to Ukraine to do filming for yet another music video... Akkuym. Truly a month of plenty! Look at these pictures! Dimash Looking So Pensive Dimash with actress for 'Akkuym' MV Dimash with Actress for 'Akkuym' MV   Dimash & Actress For 'Akkuym' MV Dimash On Video Screen     I love this song 'Akkuym' ('My Swan') performed so beautifully by Dimash and Maria Muhamedkyzy.  THe MV below is a fan video made by Gloria Wu.  One of the better ones. . 

Funniest Dimash Reactor on YouTube

I first saw this Dimash reaction video by OneShotKi11 on YouTube a year ago and I was screaming my head off in laughter. Literally.  Jeremy aka OneShotKi11 is actually a gamer and he doesn't do reaction videos but was pushed into doing this one by friends.  You could tell his reaction was genuine, he was for real... voicing out his thoughts, gamer-style.    Memorable lines : "So far he doesn't sound like anything I haven't heard in a karaoke bar.." Dimash : Oaaaaaaaaaah - C6 sustained "WHATTT??" "He's out here dressed like Neo from the Matrix. Now I know why... he's the One."  "Is that you, God? Are those angels?"

Dimash's Songs Used In Gymnastics and Ice Skating

It is a major compliment when your song is used in an artistic gymnast's routine or in a free skate program and this happened to Dimash. I feel that the music for such routines usually need to be sweeping and panoramic, even overwhelming so as to pull the audience into the performance. Alexandra Soldatova used Dimash's 'Love of Tired Swans' in her ball routine in the AA GP Moscow 2019.   The late Denis Ten used Dimash's 'SOS D'un Terrien En Detresse' in his free skate program in 2017.  

I Finally Have Dimash Kudaibergen's Official Social Media Links

After some time trawling the net and various social media sites, I have come to realise that locating Dimash Kudaibergen's official social media accounts requires some skilful searching and knowledge of three different languages and writing scripts. I have had to memorise the way Dimash Kudaibergen's name is written in Latin script, Cyrillic script and Chinese characters.  And I have had to be able to suss out the actual official account from the many many Dimash Kudaibergens or Kudaibergenovs in Twitter, FB, VK, IG, YouTube etc.  It's mind-boggling!  But I have done it! Updated June 2021 : Dimash's socmed accounts are now easier to locate.  He has them listed on his official YouTube channel and his official Facebook Page. Dimash's Instagram This is now easier to find because he got verified (blue tick!)   He seems to hang out here more often than not. It's either here or his Weibo account. Naturally I don't know about any secret per

Most Excellent Dimash Fan VIdeos

Here are a few of the most beautiful Dimash fan videos that I have seen...  they are absolute works of heart!   They are basically love letters to Dimash. 1. 'This Is Me' by Tong Wang YouTube channel The video looks like a shout out to Dimash, saying you can do it... because we (Dimash & Dears) are glorious! Weibo link : https://fx.weico.net/share/58569155.html?weibo_id=4337461855033246 2. 'The Singer First Year Anniversary' by DikOrange This video makes me cry every time.  Every time. "I'm ordinary. Among the ones who catnap in the subway, who drill for college admission, who have to polish the assignment again and again , are you and me. My life was like water which was not worth a taste, but in the evening one year ago, it was stirred by you. From then on, my life is enriched as the water has the dolphin playing and the whale swimming within. You are the destination where my pleasure runs to, the very greatness I’ve witness, the

Dimash Sang 'Moonlight Mama' Soulfully at BTV New Year Event

Dimash sang 'Moonlight Mama' so soulfully during BTV's New Year event, and it made me cry. What a melancholy song (lyrics translated to English by Joyce Hong) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 月光妈妈 Moonlight mama — lyrics — ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 晚霞是黄昏的尾巴 Sunset glow wraps up twilight 星星就要出门了 Stars are about to go out 月亮是他们的妈妈 The moon is their mama 守护着夜的天涯 Guarding the horizon at night 我只能点亮一盏灯 I could only light a lamp 安静的自己长大 Quietly grow up on my own 在梦里的某个角落 Somewhere in my dreams 唱安慰自己的歌 Sing a song to comfort myself 妈妈 妈妈 Mama Mama 想我时你也会唱歌吗 Do you also sing when you miss me? 妈妈 妈妈 Mama mama 你的星星找月光 Your star is looking for the moonlight 妈妈 妈妈 Mama mama 不要为我牵挂啊 Don’t worry about me 我知道我们都不爱孤单 I know we both hate loneliness. 这个世界虽然喧哗 Though this world is loud and noisy 我静静的凝望它 I silently watch it 而一个游子的故事 But a wanderer’s story 因为心中有个家 Because home dwells in my heart 万家灯火异乡围绕 Surrounded by myriad twinkling lights of this foreign city

Dimash Is Filming His New MV 'Love of Tired Swans'

I have been seeing clips the filming going on in Spain and now in Ukraine? They look fascinating. Alan Badoev also has a great body of work. This is one highly-anticipated music video. Here are some photos released by Dimash Alan Badoev or their collaborators. This song is one of the most enchanting songs I've ever heard and I don't even speak Russian.  It is Dimash who made it an aural beauty.  Here are two of his performances in Russia (made on the same day).  He sang 'Love of Tired Swans' at Russia Channel 1, Moscow (original link to Russia 1 no longer works, so I had to use a dear's YT link) He performed together with Igor Krutoy, one of the premier composers in the music industry Here, he performed the same song later in the evening at the Kremlin. Igor Krutoy was with him as well.

Dimash Kudaibergen Was Epic on CBS' The World's Best Audition

On February 3, 2019, Dimash Kudaibergen sang 'SOS D'un Terrien En Detresse' on an audition on CBS's new talent show 'The World's Best'.    Honestly speaking, he did a slicker performance last year at Slavianski Bazaar.  But the World's Best performance was rawer.  And he really looked the part of a man in distress with the fires all around him... the piano, the mic stand.  The judges obviously thought he was awesome... all of them (bar two) gave him their votes, so that was 48 out of 50, while the three American judges (Drew Barrymore, Faith Hill and RuPaul) gave him FULL MARKS (50 out of 50 each).  98 out of a 100 is not bad, not bad at all. Check out the videos of his World's Best performance, as well as his Slavianski Bazaar 2018 one. Dimash at The World's Best Audition (February 3, 2019) Dimash went to The International Arts Festival Slavianski Bazaar, Vitebsk, Belarus where he judged the young talents' competitio

Dimash Sang 'Swan Goose' With Tengger

I keep watching this YouTube video of Dimash singing 'Swan Goose' with Tengger @ Tengri because of the ethnic instruments and sound incorporated into the performance.   And the two singers sound and look so good together.  You'd never think that there could be such a fascinating collaboration between a young Kazakh singer dressed in a sharp suit and a Chinese Mongol artist who does throat singing.  I"ve heard about Tengger before but was never bothered to listen to him.. until this performance.   What lush vocals....I've been reading up about Tengger and people describe his vocals as sweeping, as if he brings you over the vastness of the prairie.  Funny, that is exactly how I feel about Dimash's vocals too.  For those who may be interested, this performance was at the Jiangsu Satellite TV Spring Festival Gala on 5 February 2019. Here are the lyrics to 'Swan Goose' translated to English Swan Goose (Mongolian folk song) Swan goose in th
