Dimash premiered his 'Dimash Digital Show' on the 16th of January 2021 and oh what a glorious extravaganza it was.. very rich and lush. It wasn't a live online concert and was more like a sequence of performances with visual effects. Later on, during an interview, Dimash revealed the recording took place over the space of a day and night.
He opened the show looking bright in a maroon red suit, sitting in a room watching a video of himself performing and then launching into 'Ogni Pietra'. Then he moved out of the room and onto a stage with a band. With scarcely a beat, Dimash went on to the next song 'Give Me Your Love'... and for the first time, I really really felt the song. It's actually a song with shades of the Mo-town sound, making you think of the Jacksons but yet uniquely Dimash's sound. The first few times he performed it, I didn't 'feel' it. But this time I did. He had the right vibes... very right.

Then it was 'SOS D'Un Terrien En Detresse'. He sang it soooo well... could it be even better than the 2018 Slavic Bazaar performance?
I'm not going to go into every song he performed but there were a few I have to mention. One was 'War & Peace' a song he composed (lyrics by Daryl Yao). Wow, Dimash... this was the BEST performance yet. You could feel the angst and pain he felt. He had a gritty edge to his voice that wasn't obvious before. And the background visuals as well as digital effects were fabulous!

Omir oter was Epic. Impressive. Powerful. The song title translates to 'Life Will Pass'. And I didn't even understand what he was singing about the first few viewings. But I wanted to soak in the gorgeousness of this magnificent song a few times before I looked for the lyrics. The song made me think of knights (batyrs) and castles and sacrifice.

And the third new song was the crazy 'Be With Me'! Oh man, I'm going to miss this song... love its fresh and sassy vibe! I really love the part where he transforms from this tough character with a deep dark voice to that pleading romantic 'Oh, I'm falling in love with your smiel... I promise you're gonna be mine... nobody's gonna love you like I do.'
I will be first in line to buy this show when it comes out in DVD or download options.
All the S.O.S singed by Dimash are beautiful, but the version in this show has something special. Please can you publish a DVD,Blue-Ray, or FLAC to purchase it? Thanks!
