Dimash On The Singer 2017, Nine Years On

Nine years ago, Dimash stepped up on a stage in China and performed so spectacularly that countless lives were changed. That decision of his triggered so many to start doing things they had forgotten or never done before... in music and art. So many got passports, bought tickets so they could fly to concerts in cities they had never heard of before. Many more installed apps so they could get more of his music. Going far beyond their comfort zone...

Here is that incredible SOS D'un Terrien En Detresse on the Singer 2017 stage.

And a week later, he blew people's socks off with his interpretation of 'Opera 2'.

'Opera 2' was the absolute first Dimash video I saw and watched to the end. And today is exactly nine years since that broadcast.

If I had seen other videos before that, I didn't understand them as Dimash videos and I don't remember them. But this THIS was the absolute first one that hit me like a sledgehammer. And changed the way I spent my free time forever.

Dimash was having such a good time singing this song and he was absolutely knocking the socks off the other Singer 2017 participants. You can see their reactions in the video.

Check out Dimash's reaction when he found out that the end that Kanat was in the audience. It was a surprise arranged by the producers.

I am so very happy that I saw this Opera 2 performance video that first time (even though I just clicked on it to make it go away.)

Dimash's New Song : I Miss You (Я скучаю по тебе)

Dimash's latest song premiered on his YouTube channel on 5 December 2020 and what a beauty of a song it is. Simple lyrics and gentle melody but interpreted by the inimitable Dimash Kudaibergen! Song lyrics for 'I Miss You' Music by Igor Krutoy Russian lyrics by Igor Nikolaev ⭐English Translation (Thank you, Google and a kind dear) On the sunset shore is the place of our meeting, and a flock of birds is circling over the shore. It’s like the first time I’m standing here on the beach, but I don’t know. Where are you, who are you with? I miss you, your eyes and your smile. And here, for evil fate, I will come again to wait for our meeting. For someone it is so easy, for me it is so difficult to start my life from scratch. I can't do that. Here on the shore, believing and loving, I will wait for you. Where are you, who are you with? I miss you, your eyes and your smile. And here, in spite of fate, I will come again to wait for our meeting. Our meeting place is on the sunse...

The Story Behind 'Daididau' The Poem and Folk Song

While on the Internet, I found an article about the story behind 'Daididau' and it's the most 'complete' I've found so far. It makes for very interesting reading. Daididau : From Obscure Poem to Worldwide Hit https://medium.com/illumination/daididau-from-obscure-poem-to-worldwide-hit-b25e2ea74dd9 Excerpt : "A Silenced Poet It begins like a fairytale: Once upon a time there was a poet who was very much in love with his wife. Her name was Zuleikha Kurmanbaykizi, and his nickname for her was “Daididau.” Distant cousins and teenage sweethearts, they had been married off to other people by their parents, as was customary in their day. Only after they both became widowed at a young age were they able to build a life together. This young poet, Magzhan Zhumabayev, dearly loved his homeland. At the time of his birth in 1893, Kazakhstan was being ruled by the Russian Czar .... The Kazakh people, however, aspired to self-governance." In the article, the writer...
