Dimash & Dears : If I Never Breathe Again

 Once upon a time when I was barely a month old in the fandom (and still trying to figure out who Dimash was), he held his first solo concert in China... D-Dynasty at Changsha and you could see how hard he tried to make the concert the best he could. But there was one song he sang that really touched me (and the whole audience, I bet) and that was 'If I Never Breathe Again'. The song had none of his vocal pyrotechnics and was just a simple song with a sweet melody but oh, he sang it from the deepest parts of his heart. And ever since then, it became a mainstay of his concerts (I'm not sure if he ever left it out of his concert setlist). For me, the song was his gentle statement to his dears... plain and simple 'If this should ever come to end, I couldn't ask for more.' Dimash and Dears is something I didn't expect to see or discover when I joined the fandom (my first and my last). I always thought that a singer sings and his listeners hear. And everyone goes

Dimash's 'Adagio' Lyrics in Picture Form

I saw Dimash's Adagio lyrics in picture form.  Nicely done by lyricaldimash account in Instagram.

 When I first watched Dimash's performance of Lara Fabian's Adagio, it almost wrung me dry. Because he was so impassioned and I was swept into the heartfelt cry of this young man who longs so much for his Adagio.  I can understand why some people can't take it when Dimash sings one of his passionate love songs because it takes everything out of you and you just feel like collapsing later. But oh my, what a trip!  Adagio Lyrics  Written by Dave Pickell, Lara Fabian, Rick Allison, Tomaso Albinoni I don't know where to find you I don't know how to reach you I hear your voice in the wind I feel you under my skin Within my heart and my soul I wait for you Adagio All of these nights without you All of my dreams surround you I see and I touch your face I fall into your embrace When the time is right I know You'll be in my arms Adagio I close my eyes and I find a way No need for me to pray I've walked so far I've fought so hard Nothing more to explain I know all

Dimash on MTV Friday Livestream

Three weeks ago, Dimash premiered on MTV Friday Livestream along with a stream of dears, half of which barely understood what was happening.  I myself am not quite sure but all I know is that after a week's worth of tweeting the tags @dimash_official @MTV #FridayLivestream, dears garnered enough votes to get Dimash on the livestream among other artists who were Top Requested Artists.  MTV host Kevan Kenney found himself facing dears from all over the world, speaking all sorts of languages, half of whom had never used Twitter but who were determined to see their beloved Dimash on the livestream.   And, of course, the dears found themselves facing the huge fandoms of SB19 and Arashi who had been occupying the top two rungs of the Top Requested on the Livestream.  Both the fandoms are more organised than the Dears and already knew what they were supposed to do.  Dears had to go through quite a number of trial-and-error situations (still are!) and even dealt with the challenge of upset
