The response to the Michael Jackson tribute last night at the Grammy's has been nothing short of phenomenal! Some Twitter updates regarding Celine's part:

From Twitter :

"Yes Celine!! Wow.... I miss REAL VOCALISTS like CELINE DION." - tttee82

"RIP Mike! Celine Dion is the bomb!!!!!!!!" - lexy53

"Watching the grammys, Does Celine Dion look good or what??? And shes how old!?! You go girl" - AuroraAcosta

"I'm not that big of a fan but Celine Dion but she looked really good tonight. Dang girl." - Melissma05

"Celine Dion voice is like butter!! I love it its so clear n smooth.." - iam_deon

"It's amazing how the real singers at the grammy's (celine dion, bocelli, bon jovi) don't suck live, unlike the most of the ones up there" - ristea

"I love Celine Dion...she can sing her #ss off!!!" - 5SIXinHEELS

"I miss MJ... I love Celine Dion, she is class personified! That's a true Diva, a commanding not demanding presence!" - thatsmoothguy

And talking of twitter, here's what Jordin Sparks tweeted last night:

"One day I'm going to have the vocal discipline of Celine Dion. She. Is. Phenomenal.













Celine looks so classy, and SO gorgeous!

[Wayne]

All By Myself HQ 100% live (high notes and all!)

As performed during the Taking Chances tour, and as will be seen on her upcoming film

Celine sounds absolutely phenomenal - seriously amazing.

[CSCfan]

So beautiful!

Absolutely love this video (4 min choreography run through in her dressing room)!

[jpguy]

lol, on those pictures, too much pearls, stones and bright! XD

[Wayne]

Such a gorgeous video!

[MCC4Life]

So I had read a while back here on UKMix, that Celine was set to release a second Christmas album and had already chosen and recorded a bunch of tracks. What happened? Is the album still coming out late this year? Or there is no truth to it at all guys?

Sorry, I didn't know where else to post it.

Yeah it was due for release last year, but it's postponed till further notice... so it could be released this year, but also any other..

Thanks!

AR Rahman has got Celine Dion on record

Mumbai: Double Oscar-winning musician AR Rahman is all set to team up with Canadian singer Celine Dion for an international album. Rahman is expected to record a couple of songs with Celine, who is most popular for the theme song of the 1997 blockbuster movie Titanic, 'My Heart Will Go On'.

A source says, “Celine and Rahman first met when he was recording the remake of the Michael Jackson single We Are The World to raise money for Haiti victims. It looks like she was bowled over by Rahman’s dedication. She spoke to him about a venture together and he is keen to be a part of it.”

The source adds, “Celine wants Rahman to compose two new songs that she will sing during her US tour beginning March 15. Her forthcoming album is also set to have these numbers as it is already being expected that these singles will top the charts looking at both Celine’s and Rahman’s popularity in Hollywood. This is going to be one big association.”

[AutomaticBR]

I'm not a big Celine fan but I'm getting excited for this album, I like when she does some more uptempo songs - ANDHC and OH are probably my favorite albums from her!

[DaBoi]

Whatever style she will be approaching i hope she won't try to be sexy ,ever again .lol

[Wayne]

Why?! She IS sexy - just not in your conventional Britney Spears way. I think she's more a glamorous sexy ala J Aniston.

Anyway, I agree that she shouldn't try and use her image to sell her music (which I don't think she's ever done anyway - but I can see why you made that comment, Taking Chances anyone?!). All about the voice Dion!

[Aries]

Celine began recording Taking Chances around the time of year that this album will be released; only Taking Chances from this decade has been the album to debut in the final quarter - her others are traditional mid year releases. She'll sell well - she'll hopefully do Whitney numbers. Celine is the original AC Queen, and already has a dedicated fan base. I anticipate a 150-250k opening week, subject to lots of promotion. And a Gold certification in the US. Depending on the week, she might just get her next number one album in the USA, which would be amazing. I can't wait to see her Canadian numbers!

But AC radio has turned its back to Celine since 2004. It will be hard for her to have another #1 there.

What's the point in recording dance songs if they won't be performed in her next show? They will be like Sorry For Love or Reveal, songs that only the people who bought the album know.

I think that it's the right time to record a jazz album (it was among her future projects some years ago) and perform several songs in the show next year. What's more, if the album has a unified direction, she will probably receive good critics and some nominations for AMAs, Grammys... Remember that some critics didn't like the fact that ANDHC and TC were too eclectic and Allmusic praised 1 fille & 4 types and wanted her to do an English version.

Personally, I'm more interested in her upcoming French album. I want to see if Benzi and Veneruso repeat themselves as they did in "D'elles" ("La Diva" = "Papillon", "Le temps qui compte" = "Contre nature"). I would like her to work with Goldman again, so that he can direct her how to perform like on "D'eux." I would love some contributions from Gerald de Palmas, lyrics by Luc Plamondon. I usually like a song because of the music and hardly ever pay attention to the lyrics. However, "Dion Chante Plamondon" is very interesting. The songs don't talk about love, but about many other things that happen to ordinary people, the way she tells us a story in "Oxygene." On the contrary, I couldn't care less for the lyrics on "D'elles," which were meant for a specific public (women). Now, I think she has to sing for everyone.

[jio]

According to David Guetta (in a Belgian newspaper), he has produced a song for Céline called "Webcam"..

It's Celine's 'Touch Of My Hand'... in front of a webcam!

I'd rather CeCe stick to the ballads and not change direction too much - Ana did that and now she's giving out paper bags at Tescos.

Who's Ana?

Why the new Celine Dion documentary is a thing of wonder
Forget the likes of Don't Look Back and its ilk. Celine: Through the Eyes of the World is a music documentary that really gets under the skin of its out-of-this-world subject


Not made up … still from Celine: Through the Eyes of the World

Celine: Through the Eyes of the World
Production year: 2010
Country: France
Cert (UK): PG
Directors: Stephane Laporte
Cast: Celine Dion, Rene Angelil


People often cite DA Pennebaker's Don't Look Back as the greatest music documentary of all time, but is it? Is it really? I don't know about you, but I tend to judge the quality of a music documentary on the following concrete three-point criteria:

1. How many lion cubs does the subject cuddle during the film?

2. How many bemused African children does the subject tearfully coerce into performing awkward romantic duets?

3. How many times does the subject declare "Thank you so very much for allowing us to share love with the world" to a crowd of people in a manner that suggests being allowed to share love with the world is of grave importance to them?

If I remember correctly, Bob Dylan doesn't even try to do any of these things during Don't Look Back. But Celine Dion, on the other hand, manages to cram every last one of them into the trailer for her new tour chronicle, Celine: Through the Eyes of the World. Truly, she is a thing of wonder.

Celine: Through the Eyes of the World, out this week, follows the singer's 2008 Taking Chances world tour, and promises to show both sides of Celine Dion. Yes, she's an incredibly wealthy singer who dazzles audiences around the world with inexplicable Roy Orbison cover versions and songs about horrific maritime disasters.

But the film also lifts the lid on Celine Dion's private side. She doesn't like to talk about her soup-ladling trips to Africa, for instance. Or her time spent holding Muhammad Ali's hand in a slightly patronising way. She doesn't like to talk about all the disabled women she's kissed. Or the frequent zoo trips that allow her to nuzzle giraffes and gaze adoringly at zebras while her husband clutches farmyard animals to his chest in a profound demonstration of inter-species empathy. That's private, so we should be grateful that Celine has chosen to set a heavy-handed montage of all of those things to a video of her performing All By Myself for the film. True, she might pronounce the song's title as "Ah Bah Ma Shev", but that doesn't detract from the sheer emotion of the moment. Much.

Of course, you'd expect nothing less from Celine Dion. The woman is a renegade. She works outside all perceived boundaries of rational thought. You want proof? Fine – find me another singer who can be found on the internet dancing like a chicken to an impromptu rendition of Who Let the Dogs Out. No? What about another singer who can somehow manage to get through about 130,000 bathtubs of water a year in a home they don't even live in? Still not convinced? OK, last chance – find one other singer on the face of the planet who doesn't think that Celine Dion performing a cover version of AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long with Anastacia is the worst idea in all of human history. I rest my case.

This is the reason why Celine Dion deserves to be cherished. And this is also the reason why Celine: Through the Eyes of the World deserves to go down in history as the most important music documentary ever made. That and the bit where her husband hugs the lamb. Words simply cannot express what a powerfully emotional moment that is.

She must be on ChatRoulette then!

[Wayne]

Lol, the Guardian has a surreal sense of humour

The movie is receiving some great reviews!

[sambo9]

This is a little off-topic, but I'm just in complete awe over her private Brunei concert at the moment. The setlist was perfect, the band were absolutely incredible, Celine was vocally on top form throughout the whole night and she sang everything live, the instrument improvisation section was unbelievably impressive and I love how she she performed complete versions of every song - including the 8 minute album version of "It's All Coming Back To Me Now".

[HazelEyes]

For a while Wayne I thought this was becoming an appreciation thread for Celine.

[Wayne]

Yes, well we have no news

[sambo9]

:lol: Yes, well we have no news

Which is a shame because I'm in yet another Celine-obssessed phase at the moment. I must get these crazes about 5 times a year now.

[Wayne]

I hope she goes for a Christmas release; bitch needs another 3m seller!
