FIRST TIME HEARING Céline Dion - All By Myself

[@Rated314]

Second... she'd be the best had Whitney never existed

[@GoWestYoungMan]

Celine Dion was widely viewed as being one of the great voices of the 20th century. The only others routinely put in the same category as her were Barbara Streisand and Judy Garland. Celine Dion was so highly regarded that she had her own show on the Las Vegas Strip. She performed to sold out shows for years and years and years.

[@barenkd316]

And Whitney Houston

[@AZambri1]

Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey are usually put in that category.

[@PDC1987]

A Las Vegas residency is literally the opposite of prestigious and anyone who ever had a hit can have a successful one lol.

[@shopwornbear1171]

@@PDC1987 I will add to this; she was at the top of her game when she took up her first residency, the very first artist to do so. While it's since degenerated into a has-been festival of medleys and old hits, keep in mind Adele is still churning out hit records (as was Celine when she first took to a Las Vegas stage) and making a ton of people happy that would normally could or would not have had the opportunity to have seen her. I'm no fan of Adele, but use her as an example as a counter-argument to your statement. FYI, Celine made this very bold move back in the early 2000's so she could be available to her kid at the time, and give him a semi-normal life. Adele, same deal. Different artists have different reasons for Vegas, and sadly, PDC1987, you are correct in it not being prestigious at all, and Celine should have stopped at her last very prestigious Las Vegas show before resuming them, again, and again, and again, becoming less prestigious and more ridiculous with each incarnation.

[@sanchezmcfollins]

She has never been compared to judy garland... She is considered part of the vocal trinity along with Whitney and Mariah and generally considered to be the the least best when listening to all 3 of their prime voices.

[@Mary-cg1sl]

A new song by a new artist? Dude! She's been killin' it since the 90s. For me, her French albums are the best. I seriously can't believe you've never heard of her.

[@DavidNiklas-q4v]

Celine is without a doubt one of the greatest female singers ever. You have to do more of her. I surrender (live in las vegas 2007), Flying on my own (live in las vegas 2019) she's amazing in the studio but maybe even better live

[@ShuffleUpandDeal32]

You've never heard of Celine Dion? Prepare to be blown away. She does so many things with her voice and can sing any type of song, blues, country, scat, classical, r&b, and so forth an she can sing in multiple languages considering she's French Canadian.

[@chrisofmelbourne87]

🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤

[@22gtrotter]

She also has an amazing catalog of songs she knows. I saw an interview with her once and the interviewer started naming some song and she just began to sing them, not her songs or songs she covered, just random song; just amazing !

Her singing with the divas she proved she could do it all . With the queen Aretha Franklin she stayed right with her . 😊

[@PowerDiva]

One of the greatest singers of our generation... but her story is also a tragic one. She lost both her husband and her brother within days of each other and the grief she felt almost killed her. She managed to climb out of depression and regain her life back, just to have it taken away again by illness. Last year she was diagnosed with a neurological disease that affects her vocal chords among other things. She is still alive and managing as best as she can, but unfortunately, she can no longer sing or perform.

[@DreamsSketcher]

Feel terrible for this brave classy lady. And especially for her children. Now their remaining parent so ill. They have seen so much illness. Must scare them after losing their father. But her huge loving family I am sure will be of great love and support.

[@gyufrtsgftrs436jjg]

She just released a new song. ❤

[@schan263]

I think she can sing but she is not well enough to do concerts/shows because they are too demanding for her.

[@PowerDiva]

@@schan263 yea I guess that's what I meant. She's not performing anymore.... and eventually she will not be able to sing at all due to her condition. It has already affected her voice, she can't do it like she used to though she can still sing technically.

[@davidchapman2213]

One of the greatest key changes in the history of music! Nobody could do it like Celine!

[@melaniepoulin7518]

Fun fact : She couldnt sing it at first and David Foster told her that if she couldnt hit the notes he knew another singer next door that could sing it ...That other singer was Whitney Houston. So she took all she had in her to sing it and it gives that masterpiece.

[@sherrygreiner7432]

And yet, she isn’t even considered one of the all time greatest 🤔☹️. She is to me for sure

[@cden409]

She speaks French as her first language. Beautiful voice

[@kimgroslouis5587]

She's Canadian from Québec. Reason why she speaks French. More specifically Québec french. As I am too 😉

[@No-One-Important-Here]

She speaks Québécois. 😊

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Michael - this just scratches the surface of what she can really do. My top favourite power ballads are I Surrender and To Love You More. If you want to hear something less ballady - check out Unison from her very FIRST album. It's a super fun dance number with even a little bit of rap in it. Treat Her Like a Lady also shows the grit in her voice - and is edgier. Enjoy the ride! Cheers from Canada :)

@@mikemurphy1700 as brilliant as Tchaikovsky was, NO ONE can touch the emotional effects of Rachmaninoff. I can hear a piece ( I dont really have his whole works memorized) and can tell IMMEDIATELY it is him. THe single most famous piece was boosted in popularity by the movie "Somewhere In Time" in 1981. Rhapsody On A Theme Of Paganini. Just indescribable. and the 18th variation, the love them.. He created THAT by simply inverting the several note sequence that had been the basis of his leitmotif in the other variations.

I'm taking a deep breath, because I understand that 80% of ppl born after 1995 has never ever even been exposed to history.

[@whatevs4314]

How is it possible that you’ve never heard Celine Dion? 🤣🤣

[@DougRayPhillips]

You are right. She did "My Heart Will Go On." Also check out "Because You Loved Me," "The Power of Love," "It's All Coming Back To Me Now," "To Love You More." And "Immortality" (written for her by The Bee Gees, who also supplied backup vocals). And "The Prayer" (duet with Andrea Bocelli). There was a performance venue in Vegas built just for her, in the front yard of Caesar's Palace, where she performed for several years.

[@Renkk17]

Also - I Drove all Night....which was also done by Meat Loaf

[@DougRayPhillips]

@@Renkk17 Yes. I Drove All Night was written and recorded by Roy Orbison in 1987 but not released until 1992. So Cyndi Lauper's version was the first one that actually hit the market. Plenty of other covers out there. Speaking of Meat Loaf, though... Meat Loaf and Marion Raven did a cover of All Coming Back To Me Now. It's interesting to compare the vid of that to the vid of Celine's version.

[@hilarypotter3334]

Celine has been performing professionally since age 12, beginning in her home of Quebec, CA. That was how she met her late husband that she was married to for 22 years. If memory serves, he was her manager virtually her entire career. He was 26 yrs her senior but they had one of the truest loves you will ever see. 💕
