Lara Fabian-Croire(Eurovision Contest 1988)

[spiderlulukinha]

As soon as I heard the song sung by Celine Dion, I realized what made the difference. This shows that in the case of wonderful voices, the choice of music opens up a vantage point. Imagine if there was an exchange of songs between them, certainly the story would be different.

Un duo hors-compétition de Lara et Céline ce soir-là aurait été formidable, dommage qu'elles n'en aient toujours pas fait.. en tout cas je ne sais pas pour vous mais j'adorerais un duo, ce sont mes deux chanteuses favorites.. les plus belles voix <3

[Forever1Charmed]

I think She didn't win because her song less dance than song by Celine Dion or other singer, who were on higherposition. But as for me, Lara always the best. Her songs make me believe in love, good... I think it's great. Thank you Lara

[0Immortelle0]

i think lara didn't win only because of that song!it's a nice song but not a winner song!JUst in comparison Celine's song is more hit than Lara's song.

[luzelenav]

Buenìsima-

[Andante11FI]

She's only 18 here, of course she sounds a bit different. For now, she's one of the greatest singers in the world!

[auhsoj29]

Belga.. e hizo ganar a suiza.. -.-

[culligham]

[LorcaAdonai]

i love young lara

[mamoures59]

trop belle chanson!!!

[alsigcoolio]

18F here . very horny. lOL

stop fighting on youtube xD Yt

[SpanielX]

Haha! How the presenter pronounces Lara's name and then WOgan tries to get his leg over lol.

Amazing that Lara and Celine were at the same Eurovision. I'm sure with a better song Lra could easily have won. She is one of the world's greatest and most versatile singers.

[Furienna]

No, this song is so much better than Celine's song.

[ps0u5111]

Europe would disagree it would seem!

[Furienna]

Finland, Ireland and Belgium all gave higher points to Luxembourg than to Switzerland that year. Austria gave no points to Switzerland, but 1 point to Luxembourg. So not everybody preferred Celine. Furthermore, three countries gave it 12 points: Finland, Ireland and Switzerland. It also got 10 points from Sweden and 8 points from Belgium, which also are high points. Just because Celine eventually won, she wasn't everybody's favorite. She still was very good though.

lara is the best. she has everything, she is just amazing. Celine might be an excellent singer, but somehow lara seems to be more human than any other artist

[JoeBelle29]

It is true, she has a very warm voice and appearance. She enjoyed a wonderful musical training and, besides, she is very intelligent. Therefore I respect and like her very much.

[CJBR1966]

This song is much better than Ne partez sans moi sung by Celine Dion....

[lomarcris]

Claro q no, Celine interpreto Ne Partez Pas sans Moi con una voz magnifica, celine es la mejor y gano con todas las de la ley.

[Akshayakumara]

es belga,no canadiense

[wwwtips]

La ra es de padre belga y madre italiana, paso sus primeros anos en Italia luego regreso a Belgica.

Tienpo despues cuando viajo al Canada le encanto la provincia de Quebec y se nacionalizo Canadiense.

[culligham]

[sanantonegirl]

She was the best that year

[karlgomes]

she is much better now!

looks and voice... well done Lara.. i remember that night, i ve wished that you had won.

[Stefan67]

Yes, she has modernized her look a fair bit since 20 years ago. But her emotion still comes through as strong as ever. Celine may have won, but Lara has the whole package for me. I own all her CDs and none of Celine's. Thanks for the post!

[ildivocanta]

I agree. I don't care for Celine.

[herlindaluv]

Yes, I think that is superior to Celine, and also believe that the power of the husband of Celine has ostaculizado advancing Lara in America and Latinamerica and USA.

It is impossible to believe that a talent like Lara has been unable to penetrate the American market. Someone or something must have hampered. I think .

Bravo Lara !!!

[nanoulebo1]

i do belive the same!

[DannyGee]

Just so you all know she didn't compete against Celine that year. Celine won the year before and came back to sing the year Lara sang.

[yiannis77yiannis]

you are wrong. there competed against each other in that same year. switzerland appeared 7th and luxembourg 17th

[DannyGee]

ok.

[olympus2030]

In fact you're both wrong,

They indeed compete against each other in 1988 but Switzerland (Celine Dion) won the eurovision, hence the returning of Celine Dion in 1989 to sing her song again.

[ammarios]

@olympus2030 Actually, ylannis77ylannis is not wrong. Celine Dion (Switzerland) did indeed appear seventh and Luxembourg (Lara Fabian) appeared seventeenth. He/she was not talking about who won or how they were ranked; that is simply the order in which they appeared. Celine was the seventh contestant to sing, and Lara the seventeenth.

Rank-wise, Switzerland won 1st place and Luxembourg won 4th place.

It's a matter of taste, I guess, but I personally prefer Lara's voice.

[cmeryli13]

She looks old in this video...but her voice still amazing...

[Furienna]

Considering that she's only eighteen, but she looks like she could have been thirty, I so agree with you. But I think her outfit didn't help. It was too mature-looking. Since she was so young, she should have worn something more youthful.

[0Immortelle0]

@cmeryli13

no not old

[clyn4ever]

c'est magnifique

[Eudespr]

She's great, but Celine Won!

[sookielove]

Oufff jpense pas moé! lara la bat a pleine couture ;)!

[dji20]

en fait céline a vraiment gagné le concours...

[katifan]

An extraordinary voice, I am glad she has made it after all

[bankeshinobi]

I can´t believe she´s not blonde, hahaha.

[Furienna]

She doesn't look bad in blonde hair either, but why did she change her hair color? We brunettes have a beautiful hair color too.

[0Immortelle0]

@Furienna

of course we brunettes do but somehow lara's color is fair color

it's more lara to my mind, real lara, it suits her more

[0Immortelle0]

@bankeshinobi

true,hahaha))i got used to blonde Lara either, that's why she didn't win probably=))
