    :)

    

  • Anyone can say if there are other opera songs like we can hear from 3' ? With beautiful female voice but with a music more "actual" ? Thanks :D

  • AND she's beautiful! :O

  • Inva Mula Albania <3

  • Epic Voice, no comparison

  • Such an amazing rendition! Perfect technique. One can feel Lucia's lostness and madness trough Mula's magnificent voice.

  • 3:15

  • More than I understand every word I feel its affect vibrating through my soul, and that moves the world......^^T^^

  • MARAVILLOSA INTERPRETACION!!!!!!!!! ^-^

  • I never listen to opera, but when I heard this song for the first time I was just blown away...I've never ever heard such a divine voice like this before...it's unbelievable!!!!! HEAVENLY !!!!

  • I thought it was PLAVALAGUNA?

    

  • 3:30 to the end is amazing, amazing voice.

  • Cette femme est parfaite.

  • These kind of music give me strength to accomplish my life every days.. it is so hard to say how it feel, you hear such amazing music!

  • I am shocked to finally see what she looks like. I imagined her looking far different. To cover this beautiful woman up in that crazy costume. Crazy movie.

  • @dwarflover63 The part of "the diva" Plavalaguna in The Fifth Element was acted by Maïwenn Le Besco, Luc Besson's longtime girlfriend (at the time). So Inva wasn't covered up, she was replaced.

  • @cmxxviii Thank you for the information. (I thought he was with Milla Jovovich then. ) Are there photos of her without the makeup ? I would be curious to see her without it. Was it not Inva Mula Tchako's voice then either?

  • @dwarflover63 Inva supplied the vocals for both parts of the performance - the first part is "Il Doce Suono," and the second part (starts at 3:13) is called "The Diva Dance." If you do an image search for Maïwenn you can find images of her without the makeup - and it is clear that she is in fact the actress behind the blue.

  • @dwarflover63 Actually,it was her voice...The thing is,this actual version of this song is impossible to be sung using only the human voice....the last part,the most impressive part of it that is,was made by a combination of voice + some kind of vocoder...so there you have it....and what a wonderful song this is!!!

  • @QWWR Actually, didn't Disney Diva cover this? Using only her human voice?

  • @JesterNlove - Yeah, she did cover it. And a few things should probably be mentioned here... it isn't impossible to sing the top notes here, she did sing these. In the movie, the singer didn't manage to sing them loudly enough, so they covered her voice with a flute. Disneydiva also covered this with her voice. So no, it's not impossible.

    NOTE: I don't wanna start arguments or wars, I just wanna point out the right information, lol.

  • @6johansenad I don't think that's the case, it's just that she's suppoesed to have an inhuman voice, so they created those flute effects to show that she does really different things to her voice that a human can not

  • @juliano9000 actually that thing a human cant do...is a human doing it. its called "whistle register" mariah carey does it in "emotions" as well as a number of other singers. but the use of how well she does it is insane. but no its not computer generated, auto tuned etc. its her. thats how insane her voice is.

  • Amazing voice! Mi aspiracion!

  • I'm in tears and has anyone seen fifth element.

  • May I be so picky to say, the real "Il dolce suono" is normally way longer? For the Diva Dance performance, they only used half of it.

  • @HeartsEyes

    No, its whole Il dolce suono, You may be confused because Il dolce suono is part of Mad Scene from Lucia di Lamermooor that consists of 3arias with length of 15minutes approx.

  • @jaina1992 I thought they all belonged together.. ;) My bad then. What are the names of the others?

  • @HeartsEyes

    Ardon gli incensi, Spargi d'amaro pianto

  • @jaina1992 Thank you! :)

  • @jaina1992 heartseyes is in fact right, this aria is actually almost 7 min. long, ending with: ''..Oh gioia che si sente, e non si dice!'' 'Ardon gli incensi' comes after that

  • Insane

  • Bravo!!! She is amazing!!!

  • Greatest Voice Ever .

  • this is one of the best singers ive ever heard in all my life

  • 22 people are going to roast in hell for eternity for disliking this.

  • Albanian singer make us proud

  • Increible

  • ufff.... increible, maravilloso, divino, unico, el como oir el cielo, angelical, 22 personas creyeron que el pulgar abajo era para descargar

  • Love

    

  • Der süße Klang =(

  • Inva is amazing and she nailed this. I love her... to all the Inva fans - check my channel... I got like 4 songs sung by Inva Mula and they're great :P

  • @tanilla22 Sarah Brightman certainly did NOT sing this...it is Inva.

  • @tanilla22

    idiot, its Inva, not Sarah, sarah is sh1tty singer comparing to Inva Mula

  • @jaina1992 idiot is you mother retard...

  • @jaina1992 fuck off of sarah you bitch! thay're both perfect in there ways!

  • @gudo0000

    Sarah Brightman is sh1tty caricature, that imitates opera and never sings live, shes just lipsinging, shes nothing comparing to Inva

  • @jaina1992 you obviously haven't seen a lot of her live performances. Sarah is a wonderful performer and singer. I agree that her voice isn't as strong as Inva's, but why should it be? To me they both contribute something unique and significant.

  • @CuttyKitty1

    You obviously doesnt know that most of Sarah' "live performances" are playback, and shes just lipsinging, Ive heard her singing live few times and it was a terribad disaster, she RARELY sings live

  • @jaina1992 Totally agree even when I love Sarah, she can't be compared with Inva

  • @jaina1992 I guess he had the same MP3 as me, it said " Sarah Brightman " in the artist info for this song :P I'm glad it wasn't her.

  • Sarah Brightman is not an opera singer. She puts in shame the true opera singers.

  • 3:40

    

  • Wonderful, mesmerizing voice...

  • This song is just..so gorgeous!

  • sono fiera che lei come me e una grande voce albanese

  • hermoso... solo eso puedo decir me he quedado sin palabras, aparte no puede describirse algo asi de bello.

  • wow, por momentos ni siquiera parece humano O_O mis respetos....

  • @Stardingo747 You talk to much, I can't hear the music over your spam. 

  • WHO HAS MORE WORKS BY INVA MULA TCHAKO??? I WANNA HEAR

  • wow!! has a wonderful voice and is beautiful!

  • Comment removed

  • really beautiful voice

  • why does 2:48  make me cry?

  • Comment removed

  • modern performers are fucking spoiled; singers, actors, actresses, the whole nine. You wanna bitch and whine about "sacrificing for your art?"  Man, go watch "Farinelli." THAT is sacrificing!

  • Italians who owned castrati singers though were not completely without compassion; they only removed a boy's testicles but let him keep his dick so he could enjoy women. Even without testicles, the male penis will grow to its adult size upon puberty if I'm not mistaken. Now, Chinese Eunochs? Fuck man they took away the ENTIRE package....dick balls and all.

  • thing is though I doubt any opera singer today is skilled enough to kill someone with their voice. If you don't believe me, do personal research yourselves at a local university library. Again, these notes are hard to hit for a human being, because they require both extremely powerful lungs, the illusion of which is digitally enhanced, as well as a woman's voice, which in days past only Italian Castrati had.

  • so, hey.... if you need a politician assassinated....if those stories about "killer opera singers" are true..... just have an opera singer do it. I am not making this up youtube; I know I read a science journal somewhere that, hypothetically, an opera singer can indeed kill with their voice. In early modern era Italy, it is said that legendary Castrati Farinelli in fact killed a lot of people this way. Men and women who made him angry, often died at his performances.

  • It is one of the "myths" about opera; Italians insist, that a skillful enough opera singer, can actually kill with their voice.

  • what you all are hearing, is the closest thing to what an Italian Castrati would have sounded like. The legendary castrati Farinelli, allegedly, could sing like this. I'm sure some of you have seen the movie. And, per the legend, he even struck notes that once killed a man. A British asshole made fun of the condition forced on him, so when said Brit attended his opera, Farinelli struck a note that killed him. Scientifically, not impossible, actually. Everyone has a "fatal frequency."

  • wait, I remember now! The other thing they enhanced electronically was the "power" behind the notes, that is why even the classical aria sounds so haunting; it has the high pitch of a woman's voice, but with more power than even HUMAN male lungs can handle.

  • Now, a piece like this WAS actually possible once, for Italian castrati singers (wiki it). Castrati singers combined the power of male lungs, with the high pitch of a woman, another advantage male lungs have is that because a man's lungs can hold more air, it makes for faster note transition. The price castrati paid though, was very high, namely never having a family.

  • But, regardless of what instrument they used to create a few of those note, I just know this is one of the MOST PLEASING, to the Ears, songs I have EVER Heard, of ANY Musical Genre, and I Only discriminate against Most, but not all, Rap, Punk and Acid Rock, and even then there is some good stuff. Inva is one of the Best Voices I have EVER Heard, Plain and Simple.

  • I don't really Care how they did her voice, cause I do know, from over a decade of voice lessons, that a few of those notes are a Physical IMPOSSIBILITY for a Human Voice-box to create, NO ONE, even with Inva's OBVIOUS abilities or with the amount and number of years of a Pavarotti could succeed making such sounds, Regardless of what some "expert" says, i tend to NEVER Believe people who say they are "Expert" at something, cause there is always someone better.

  • @Edav38 Have you listened to many coloratura sopranos? How about Queen of the Night aria from the Magic Flute? Doll aria from Lakme? Pavarotti isn't a coloratura soprano...

  • @jewelmarkess "Pavarotti isn't a coloratura soprano..." It's good that you pointed that out, I'd have forgotten ;)

  • @MademoiselleSonushka LOL - I was replying to Edv38, and if you read Edv38 comment, you'll see that (s)he mentioned Pavarotti. Given that I'd imagine Pavarotti couldn't do Queen of the Night either, I didn't think he was a good example. As to the original subject - on a second listen there seem to be a couple of high notes on this video that is oboe and not the voice, most of it is Inva Mula.

  • @Edav38 Oops, just noticed that you said you had a decade of voice lessons. Did you study classical voice with the purpose of becoming an opera singer? BTW - there is a video here of a pop singer, a girl who can't do the first part because she isn't an opera singer, but she does this last part you sing is impossible.

  • I've only reached the highest note once in my life... Now I choke every time I try

    Love this song SO much!

  • @LyssieTheRamenQueen Try different breathing you can hit.

  • I dont believe you... i sing this with my friend all the time those notes are not. impossible

  • @Gyendor

    You and your friend are not Inva Mula Tchako :))) ...High notes,and fast changing notes like she does can do people which are born for that,like she is... :)))) ;))

  • @BatoBFlex your comment makes no sense :) :) :) -_-

  • @Gyendor Simple...This piece just can sing Inva Mula and some of sopranos...You and your friends can't do that... And if my comment don't have sense,I think my English is so bad,or you are stupid to understand that...but I think this second thing is reason...Stupidity...:) ;) ...Relax,listen and enjoy the music...DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!! :)

  • She sang it all, but they said that one of the instruments played louder than her voice.

  • хороший выбор музыки .. Я американец, и эта песня разбивает мне сердце

  • 19 people prefer to listen to justin bieber apparently =.=; This was my favorite song from her and will always be. Her voice is very refined, better than other opera singers. Bravo to Inva!

  • how could you dilike an angels voice ?

  • In the suggestions bar on the right: "Katy Perry - Firework" ... How about no

  • Lucia di lammermoor

  • best piece ever!!!

  • 19 mangalores saw this video

  • This epic. !! and whom dislike this just get a Life!

  • chinga esto si es voz no chingaderas :D

  • woooooow!!!!! 

  • Oh, divina voce! Tenera come il lento scorrere di un fiume attraverso i prati verdissimi e collinari di un luogo raggiunto e scoperto dopo aver passato il rumore di una città.Poi scorri oltre una piccola cascata e danzi addentrandoti fra un bosco ove i rami degli alberi si stendono giovani e freschi....

  • Ahhhh, que belleza ¡¡¡¡ Se me caen las lágrimas con la primera parte.

  • I have always wanted to know, at 4:16; does she do that with her own natural voice and with no help from computers or vocal tuning? If so, that's INSANE!!!!!

  • @jab2810 It's her natural voice!

  • @bazo2k it is her voice, but digitized

  • @jab2810 Autotune...lol. I wondered a little too. :)

  • this song is beautiful...

  • from the best movies of last centuri.!!

  • Very beautiful music and powerful voice. She is really amazing. Evrytime I hear this song, I'am really impressed. A fan from Serbia.

  • An absolute vocal phenomenon in my opinion. So effortless and seamless in her transitions. If only I had some one with this ability to compose for.

    Eccezionale!

  • piękny głos

  • OMG AT 4:16 !!!

  • music majestic melody and proves more versatile singer in a suit of Inva Mula!

    Congratulations!!!

  • @TheCybercrisis Inva Mula is absolutely fantastic here, she is one of the top opera singers, she sing leading roles at La Scala which is the top opera theater in the world. But there are other excellent singers who can do it very well (at least the first part, the one from an opera). Natalie Dessay is very good in this as is Diana Damrau, Sumi Jo, Rachelle Gilmore, etc. If you search for "Lucia di Lammermoor mad scene", you'll find some great performances. The one with Dessay is subtitled.

  • sublime

    

  • The diva's name was Plavalaguna ;)

  • I have like a gospel, big black woman voice...I couldn't imagine even trying this aria...

  • SHI IS JUST UNBELIEVABLY GREAT!!!! I LOVE HER VOICE!!!!!

  • Vocal range Is unbelievably broad ranged and just stunning. The navigation of tones and semi-tones is almost beyond my comprehension. To be honest I had not indulged in any opera or arias until i saw 5th element and heard this....now i get chills up and down my spine when I hear this. Almost like I am being aurally seduced.... Just awesome!!

  • @Psynewaves So now that you've been exposed to opera via this, have you moved on to other arias and other operas starting with the rest of the scene from Lucia di Lammermoor?

  • Comment removed

  • @Kickylou22 Sorry, but look for "Laura sings the "Diva Dance" from the Fifth Element" on youtube...

  • @TheFlyingDuckTheory I seen it. 

  • @Kickylou22 I thought that during one of the making of specials, they actually said that she pulled it off without digital help. But perhaps I'm remembering it wrong. Either way, her voice is beautiful.

  • @bast713 She sang all the notes but they were edited to fit better. There are obvious places where you can hear the editing.

  • @Denuhm You can hear there only a wind instrument. how @bast713 said, in the making of specials they said it was NOT digittaly composed together. She really pulled it from herself :)

  • @bast713 No, you don't, you're right.. I remember it too, so they either lie, or we're stupid :))

  • @Kickylou22 I've heard the human voice change notes that fast.

  • @Kickylou22 on youtube disneydiva sang this part very well without isolation.. live.. everything is possible for human voice.. yma sumac and mado robin and erna sack went off the piano with their stratospheric high notes..

    inva mula is a good singer too

  • @Kickylou22 yeah, that's what it was. I knew it had some electronic enhancement of some sort. But in addition to the note transition didn't they also use enhancers to make the voice sound less human and more "alien?" I read about what you just commented on way back in the 90's internet scene, but they also mentioned her voice was enhanced with a digitizer, that is they didn't just do the note transitions they actually artificially made it sound better. Confirm please if you know!

  • @Kickylou22 : it depends. Some performer, like Diamanda Galas, actually are able to do it without computers. But they aren't considered singers, they are performers.

  • @Kickylou22

    this is the same auto-tuned version, only slower tempo ;)

    human voice can sing fast, duh...it's about vocal range they made it higher, cuz maybe she wasn't coloratura.

  • @steve1984m nope you're wrong, that's exactly what happened:)

  • whoa did she actually sing those leaps from the second part?

    especially from between 4:08 - 4:20??????

    if that's not computer.... those leaps were insane to sing man Oo

  • thanks,Inva is amezing!!!!!!!

  • 16 people wouldn't bang the diva from Fifth Element.

  • questo è ITALIANO cari ignoranti,VIVA L'ITALIA

  • questo è ITALIANO cari ignoranti,VIVA L'ITALIA

  • questo è l' ITALIANO cari i miei ignoranti

  • Wow gorgeous with a beautiful voice!

  • Si egsiste el cielo ,seguro que ella canta en el

  • sings better than miku..

  • Well, to all those people complaining about the chap or crappy or wahtever you want to call the notes from the second part of the song, it was recorded for a sci-fi movie, it was trying to be an alien voice i know inva mula tchako can sing tis without the effects and would sound like heaven, but this version sounds quite cool to me.

  • la LIRICA que belleza, es la cosa mas linda que inunda mi corazon y que a pesar de los pesares me hace decir que la VIDA ES BELLA.

  • this is future/alien/superultra/opera/­ pop..and such it is fantastic.... ;)

  • waaaauwww the voice is perfect i love this music and this song wwwauwwww

  • @tefy1300 Have you tried listening to it as it's sung in the opera? The first 2/3 of it comes from opera Lucia di Lammermoor by Donizetti, the part called "mad scene". There are some subtitled versions here. The full opera will be on tv in some areas in the US (on PBS) tomorrow night and Sunday afternoon.

  • bueeenisiimoooo!!!!!!

  • burnisiimoooo!!!!!!

  • O som doce A culpa é minha, a sua voz! ... Ah, a voz que ... É doloroso em meu coração para baixo Edgardo! O rendimento irá Filho Edgardo! Ah, meu Edgar! Sim, você fez Filho! Estou escapou "de seus inimigos Sen-me um arrepio nos arrasta ...! Treme cada fibra! ... Vanilla é o bolo! Sente-se comigo na Fonte Sim, na fonte t'assidi mim ...
  • k soprano!!!

    verda? :D

  • wonderfull voice. nothing else

  • Everyone that has an appreciation for art and can hear the angels voices in her crystal clear soprano will find it nothing short but “erotic” … her voice is simply divine - wow

  • a great singer a great voice

  • with all the respect to Ms. Inva Mula, it should be clear - her voice was merely base for rather heavy (very heavy) altering via electronic processing and filtering, up to complete engineering in the second (modern) part of the song. If someone wishes to experience real performances that had served as inspirational, true paragons to be imitated (technically & emotionally), Maria Callas and Dame Joanne Sutherland are the TOP, with genuine, bare human voice, 40-50 year ago! and still the best!

  • Who sings it or better /watch?v=1Hdgb53QVaY

  • 16 people did not watch The Fifth Element.

  • I love it too^^! I discovered the song thanks to the movie. I also very like the movie that I find very nice and funny! Actually, I discovered thanks the song thanks to the "fifth element" ps1 game in which a part of the music was played in the intro. Peace!

  • On 4:17 - is that natural or computer helped?

  • @kokosz33 No computer help, but they had wind instruments playing the notes on top of her vocals at times to make it sound more clean and precise. It's still mostly natural and, yes, impressive as fuck.

  • @kermaleivos

    Are you really sure of what you are saying?

    Because, for me, wind instruments cannot make this noise, even if they are completed with the voice. It's clearly the voice (to my opinion altered) that makes this sound.

  • I know, The Filth Element is what made me fall in love with this song!

  • amazing....

    

  • Comment removed

  • On all of these you say super green! What are you on about?

  • @ManKannon89 Theres a movie where a creature performs Il Dolce Suono. But it is Inva Mula Tchako that sings it. That movie is called The Fifth Element, with Bruce Willis from 1997 if I'm not mistaken. It's a great movie.

  • Wow this has had me spellbound, what a voice

  • She is Albanian from Kosova...

  • She was born in Tirana.... that is in Albania ;) Her father is from Kosova ;)

  • That voice is amazing

  • it´s diva plavalaguna :) which means blue lagoon in several slavic languages... plaga means nothing as far as i know :)

  • She looks very young in this picture. When was the recording made? She's about 47 now.

  • @79barkingspider Well before '97, that's for sure.

  • @79barkingspider the "diva dance" as some may know this particular version as, was recorded / put to film in " fifth element" in 1997
