Celine Dion Inspires at the 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony Reaction

[@sugarplumharleycosplay8648]

I cried watching this live, Celine has fought and continues to fight a tough battle - so to see her perform with such grace, strength & bravery is overwhelming.

[@janwatson7981]

I cried ,she’s suffered so much . Her bravery and strength was amazing. She gave us so much that night.

[@natlisan]

Celine's actually not that old! She's 56. She's just had a long career because she started at the age of 12.

[@carolhayar3037]

Suffering with Stiff Person Syndrome has aged her considerably; it is extremely painful & debilitating.

[@ChrisTheAppleOne]

@@carolhayar3037I’m not sure why people think she looks so old. I know many 50 year olds who look the same age, or even older. People (not you) criticize the way celebrities look and then criticize them when they get plastic surgery to make themselves look younger. It’s a tough business

[@carolhayar3037]

@@ChrisTheAppleOne Regards Celine specifically was because someone (can't recall who) made a comment about it and what I see is someone who, due to the horrible condition & pain she has endured, has taken it's toll; certainly not meant as a criticism but to my eyes it has aged her somewhat more than if she didn't go through that condition. It's a brutal & unforgiving business -- a double edge sword - the need to sing or act & loving the limelight but the downside of what has to be endured can take an awful toll. Thanks.

She's suffering from Stiff-Person-Syndrom - a neurological disease that can cause spasms in every part of the body lasting a minutes or even hours. Sometimes the spasms were so hard she had broken ribs. There is no cure for it only medication / physical therapy for managing it. I highly recommend to watch her documentary only then you fully understand why everyone is so in awe of this performance. She's 56 by the way.

Autoimmune issues are usually poorly treated because modern doctors try to treat them with pharmaceuticals. Rather nutrition is the natural means to reverse autoimmune which is shunned by modern medicine, because it does not make them money.

[@maeva1196]

I am a little older than Céline and so proud of my compatriot. We grew up in the 60s and 70s in Charlemagne and Repentigny. Our paternal homes were 2 km away and when she became famous in Quebec at 13, her parents and her sister Claudette were also very well publicized and we met them at the Nickel restaurant which belonged to her or at the shopping center. What a life path she had. I so often passed by the house where she grew up in the car with my parents at the time, without suspecting that behind the walls of this house was hiding a little girl who was going to become an international star. Here in Quebec we are very proud of her.

[@reallehoux9473]

You are right about the silence in listening Celine Dion interpreting the" L' Hymne à l' Amour " (from Edith Piaf) that song, in the French Speaking world, that song has the status of expressing a total Love, that only Love is important in Life, in Hope and beyond anything. You can not speak because it takes your full attention, it takes your breath away, it occupies your mind , your soul, and your heart. It is the French " soul and spirit " hymn. It is worth looking for the translation...❤

Knew her since early 80ties when she came to sing in France for the first time (she was 14y old) and became a fan in 1988 when she won the Eurovision Song Content (she was 20) Only 56 but it’s clear that what she’s dealing with today had an impact and makes her looking older About the song it was “L’hymne à l’amour” (The hymn to love), a very famous song from Edith Piaf that she wrote after her lover (the very famous French boxer Marcel Cerdan) died in the crash of his plane. Joining her from Paris to NY

So Céline covering this Anthem, in fact it's like the second French National Anthem, 🎵🎶🏆 who loves this song and has already performed it several times, including at the ✨✨✨ American Music Awards 🏅after the terrorist attacks that plunged France into mourning in 2015 , is necessarily very emblematic.💦💫 This song is therefore HEAVY with diverse meanings and emotions and. Céline lived up to all those emotions.💙 Thank you , guys , for reacting to that amazing Performance !! 🙏❤

[@indiiedreamer]

I'm not a big Celine Dion fan, but, omg, how I cried with this, it was beautiful.

[@DanielDeRudder]

That very last phrase : "Dieu réunit ceux qui s'aiment" (God reunites those who love (each other)) always gets to me. I maybe listened to this song 50 times or more and somehow I can't keep it dry. Superstar quality. By the way, she's 56 years old now. It's worth to search for the English translation of this very emotional song. The song is called "L'Hymne à l'amour" by Edith Piaf. You will relate even more.

[@Jade.75017]

Hi, I've just sent them the lyrics of this song in French if they want to follow Céline's song and all the English translation, right now.... I also love "Dieu unifie ceux qui s'aiment" that last line, but the one that has ALWAYS torn me apart and made me cry is : "Si un jour la vie t'arrache à moi, si tu meurs que tu sois loin de moi..." " If one day life tears you away from me, if you die may you be far from me..." Edith Piaf wrote this song " L' Hymne à L' Amour " for a man she loved madly , in fact this magnificent and so incredibly moving song is dedicated to Marcel Cerdan, a famous French boxer, the love of her life , who died in a plane crash from Paris to New York where he was scheduled for a boxing competition where he was to face La Motta, but of course to join the woman he loved, Edith Piaf who sang in shows in New York....😪.

[@singinpoet]

She worked SO HARD to get to this point. SPS tried to steal her phenomenal voice. The song ‘L’Hymme d’Amour’ Is an Edith Piaf classic. L’Hymme d’Amour is ‘The Hymn of Love’. It was written for Edith Piaf’s husband. Edith Piaf is a French cultural icon. To even be asked to sing one of her songs is an honor. This song was written for her husband right after Edith found out he died in a plane crash. The song is about her deep and abiding love for her husband, Pierre. Celine’s husband, Rene, who she was married to for 21 years, died after a second battle with cancer. They have 3 kids. Their oldest was 15, and the twins were 5 when their dad died. She’s been chasing the symptoms of this rare disability for almost 2 decades, and it almost ended her career. I’m so proud of her.

[@Jade.75017]

Edith Piaf wrote " L' Hymne à L' Amour " after the death of the Love of her life in a plane crash . I will give you the lyrics in French if you want to follow Céline's singing and the translation in English. CHANSON EDITH PIAF " L"HYMNE A L' AMOUR " Le ciel bleu sur nous peut s'effondrer Et la terre peut bien s'écrouler Peu m'importe, si tu m'aimes Je me fous du monde entier Tant qu'l'amour inond'ra mes matins Tant que mon corps frémira sous tes mains Peu m'importe les problèmes Mon amour, puisque tu m'aimes J'irais jusqu'au bout du monde Je me ferais teindre en blonde Si tu me le demandais J'irais décrocher la lune J'irais voler la fortune Si tu me le demandais Je renierais ma patrie Je renierais mes amis Si tu me le demandais On peut bien rire de moi Je ferais n'importe quoi Si tu me le demandais Si un jour la vie t'arrache à moi Si tu meurs, que tu sois loin de moi Peu m'importe, si tu m'aimes Car moi je mourrais aussi Nous aurons pour nous l'éternité Dans le bleu de toute l'immensité Dans le ciel, plus de problèmes Mon amour, crois-tu qu'on s'aime ? Dieu réunit ceux qui s'aiment....... EDITH PIAF SONG " HYMN TO LOVE " The blue sky over us may well collapse And the earth may well collapse I don't care, if you love me I don't care about the world As long as love floods my mornings As long as my body trembles under your hands I don't care about problems My love, if you love me I'd go to the ends of the earth I'd have my hair dyed blonde If you asked me I'd go get the moon I'd steal your fortune If you asked me I would deny my country I would deny my friends If you asked me I'd be laughed at I would do anything If you asked me If one day life rips you away from me If you die, if you're far from me I don't care if you love me Because I would die too We'll have eternity to ourselves In the blue of immensity In the sky, no more problems My love, do you think we love each other ? God reunites those who love each other.... ❤🧡💛💚💙💜❤💛💚💙💜❤

Seems like you could get some information before making this video. Celine has stiff person syndrome & she was able to sing this! An angel.. She is singing one of Edith Piaf’s most iconic song « Hymne a l’amour » which is known worldwide.. written by Edith Piaf after losing her lover, the boxer Marcel Cerdun, in a plane crash.

[@Krobra91]

3:32 with that key change.. here is the translation of what she is saying. I will go to the end of the world I will dye my hair blond If you ask me to I will go take down the moon I will steal fortune if you ask me to. I will renounce my country I will renounce my friends if you ask me to.

[@vlado279]

PARIS ! Eternal Paris...

[@gillestrudeau836]

This song was written by Édith Piaf before or after the death of her beloved lover in a plane crash on his way to meet her in New York. She never recovered thereafter. She fell into substance abuse and died. They were madly in love this couple. This is like a self-fullfilling prophecy because she sans in her song if life take you from me I will die too and indeed she died shortly after.

I really don't know why some people think she's "super old" she's 56 years old, she's nowhere near 70 years old, maybe it's because of her career spanning over 40 years, but she started very young at just 12 years old, and French is her native language she started singing in French

[@Killermcknight]

I think it's because when I was a small child I remembered her. She's been a successful singer before I was even born so not knowing that she started her career when she was 12 I always imagined that she was older than even my mother who was a fan. It's hard to fathom for me at least because I always thought she was in her 30s when I was a child

First performance in 4 years

[@ortheeimpossible3387]

Isn't that French song by Edit Phiaf,who dedicated that song to her fiance,who died :Tragically "

[@louisecote3542]

For Marcel Cerdan,a boxer who died in a plane crash. The song was written in 1949

[@Killermcknight]

Oh how sad 😞

[@Jade.75017]

Absolutely, Marcel Cerdan, a famous French boxer, the love of her life died in a plane crash from Paris to New York where he was scheduled for a boxing competition where he was to face La Motta, but of course to join the woman he loved, Edith Piaf who was singing in shows in New York....😪

Wow ... her voice has changed a bit for sure ... but it's still soooo beautiful and powerful to listen to. Celine is truly beyond the limits of being diva. God bless her ❤️❤️❤️

Dude do your homework. She's 56 and she's singing Edith Piaff's song Hymne A L'Amour

[@Killermcknight]

When you watched this live on television did you do your homework? This was our first impressions and I'm afraid doing the homework would have ruined the experience. Especially when you Google Celine Dion Olympics you get nothing but drama over lip syncing. I don't like ruining our naive experience just because I don't know how old a celebrity is or what song in a completely different language she's singing in. You assume I care enough and all we ever try to do is watch a video on the internet.

[@marcvilleneuve1889]

I am so tired of hearing these so called self declared experts who pretend with absolutely no credentials she was doing mimics and that was not a live performance.

[@Killermcknight]

We never said anything about her not being genuine and I agree with you because that was never even a thought when we watched this performance. It's being stated almost to ruin an experience and I hate that some people want to ruin someone else's experience. Especially, ours! We're not a vocal couch channel or subject matter experts I really don't care! I'm right there with you brother!

[@marcvilleneuve1889]

@@Killermcknight I was not accusing you was speaking about other channels...she was live... Just because they might post here because they go everywhere to discredit Dion. Send you the article denying it was playback. Thanks for sharing.

[@Killermcknight]

I just replied to a guy regarding this matter, anyone who has any knowledge about vocal processing can tell you this was not pre recorded lip syncing or any of that non sense. Some people just like to watch the world burn and will use anyone as a target to do so and should be ashamed.
