here is Laras new single, it's quite light and a little bit boring.
anyway, can't wait for the album.

[celinesounds]

The file quality is not the best, the song sounds like her first French songs

In my opinion she lost vocal ability in since NUE

[nano]

it's an old song..and I actually like Lara's rendition! It's a perfect summer song

Lara is, with Celine and Tina Arena, my three favourite female singers in the world. I own all of her albums and DVD's and I can't wait to have her new album. She is always great.

They're also in my top list! (along with Mariah, Whitney and Madonna)

[Bralo20]

Unfortunately her new cd is yet another time postponed...  Due to be released in December last year it was rescheduled to March and now it will be June when the new cd will be released.

[Bralo20]

The release is scheduled for 2009, not 2008 (which is already passed by us)

(Although it should have been released last year)

[Davey84]

thanks for the link! it sounds good! I can't say that much, cos the quality is so low,
but it sounds like a happy summer song! I just wish the soleil would show itself!

hmmmm you're kinda right. her peak was arround the millennium i guess, but she still sounds
amazing on En toute intimité and wonderful life! but I think she hasn't been very protective of her voice, so it lost the clearity it had...

[freakyali]

I can't wait for the new album!
I soooo love her voice and I adore her smile!
On the official site she wrote the album will be released next June ... let's hope they won't change the date once again!

I Have the DVD Un Regard 9 and I can't heard it, she sounds like she has put a cork In her throat

[Petra5]

I like Wonderful life, I will love again, Love by grace and No big deal and .........  well a few songs

[ennostiel]

Oh I adore Lara. My second very best, right after Celine I absolutely love about a dozen of her songs and I think she's great in every language she sings in

[ivx]

She`s great! One of the best vocals of all time, really love her version of PQTME!

Actually, and I hate to say this on this Céline forum, I do like the version of Lara Fabian above the original Céline Dion version...  It's nice, more special, it's... wonderfull

And no... I'm not saying this because she's Belgian also (with a Canadan citizenship)

I just like this version, especially with the piano...

[Bralo20]

Also her version of "Caruso" remains astonishing beautifull

I hate that I have to agree with you!   Her version is so wonderfull!

[ennostiel]

I'm not so fond of Lara's PQTME or Le Blues du Businessman (in fact I kinda disliked her version of LBdB, at least the one I heard), but I LOOOVE 'Je t'aime', 'Si tu m'aimes', 'Tout', 'Caruso', 'Adagio' (both in English and Italian) and the Spanish 'Quedate'... plus her best-known hit songs, 'No Big Deal' and 'I will love again'

I love it too.   I love the fact that she didn't even try to sing it like Celine but made her very own version. It's like a new song..
I wish Celine would "play" more with the song, improvise, have fun with the melody..

Does anyone know what would be a good place online to buy her French CDs? It seems many of the online stores seel only her English CDs or sell imports of her French CDs that are way overpriced.

[Bralo20]

The Belgian site "Mediadis", They ship worldwide.

[corr_azy]

Wow thanks!

I couldn't help noticing you are from Belgium. I will be there in July and I am wondering if you know any good place to get CDs?

Yep, I'm indeed from Belgium

What cities are you going to visit?


In the center of Brussels you will find the FNAC store with a decent collection of CD's (several thousands), it's located in the City 2 shoppingcenter on the "Kruidtuinlaan" in Brussels.  A few meters further you can find on the topfloor of the "INNO" shoppingcenter the "MEDIAMARKT" shop with also a decent collection of CD's (again several thousands).  It's located in the "Nieuwstraat" or "Rue neuf" like they say in Brussels.  In Antwerp you have the same shops, a FNAC and a MEDIAMARKT.  Don't know the streetnames unfortunately.  On the A12 highway between Brussels and Antwerp you have in Wilrijk (a part of Antwerp) a rather new "SATURN" store with again a very large collection of cd's...

SATURN & MEDIAMARKT are both from the same owners (the METRO group) so the prices are rather the same.  FNAC is a part of a French group and commonly those prices are (a lot) higher then in the SATUR/MEDIAMARKT stores...

Then you have also Free Record Shop and Extrazone but those are smaller and mostly also a bit more expensive.

Thanks for the information! Probably going to visit Brussels, Antwerp and Ghent. I was there last year as well but couldn't  really find any record stores around! That really helps!

In Ghent you will find also a FNAC store, it's located in the "Veldstraat".
A Mediamarkt is also located near Ghent but it's in "Oostakker, in the "Herman Teirlinckstraat" near the ringway arround Ghent.

When you are in Ghent you should definately go the a famous café called "'t Velootje" (the bicycle), it serves more then 30 sorts of beer and is really special due it's design.  It's a very very old building and the interior is just full of bicycles, from old to new.  It's a real authentic café in Ghent

The address:

't Velootje
Kalversteeg 2
Ghent

It's located in the area "Patershol"

In the same area you will also find several very nice restaurant including the famous spare rib restaurant "Amadeus", the address of this location is "Plotersgracht 8" also located in the "Patershol"

Another good place for drinking something is the lovely café "'L Enfant Terrible" (The terrible child) located in close proximity to the "Vrijdagsmarkt".  We use this location always for meetings with the board of my non profit organisation.  It's a nice location.  The address: "Bij Sint-Jacobs 13" in Ghent.
