LV is "A Song from you" a cover from Donny Hathaway's version?

take a look

[Shaun]

This kind of anticipation makes me realise that a new album every 12 months really isn't the way to go.

This will be Celine's first proper mainstream album since 2003 and look at the excitement and interest that is building surrounding it, not just by us the fans but by the media in general.  

We haven't seen, or felt, anything like this since the months building up to the release of ANDHC. The next few months are going to be great.

Guys I would not panic to much about certain songs especially covers mentioned that will/may appear on the album, as the review said these may not be totally finished/mixed yet, and if they are.... they might be edited/mixed again depending on peoples opinions both at the listening party and us here on the board...so lets give it a chance, its still early days, its 3 months away... lol
but its def getting exciting on here, its great!!!

thank you for the review!!

I'm so excited with this album...actually i think i'm even more excited than i was with "D'Elles", because i think this one will be even more different than everything she had one before.

And it will be such a great birthday gift for me

Leame is the worst copycat fan ever, does this person have no shame? What a low life!

Ugh, this is horrible, lol.  The anticipation is killing me

Hey, maybe since everyone was so well behaved and didn't take any bootlegs, TC can throw us a bone and post 30 seconds of Taking Chances.  Wishful thinking maybe?

and it's already on perez website, they couldn't have asked for better publicity!

[ANewDay...]

all i can say is...

CELINE...TAKING CHANCES? with her gift(s), her team, her supportive fans, her worldwide acclaim and respect by people who actually KNOW music and talent (e.g., Prince, Randy Jackson, Alice Cooper, Larry King, Barbra Streisand, David Foster, and yah, obviously, this list could be expanded to NO end), not to mention her staggering success in Las Vegas, she has every reason to take a leap of faith and make some changes to her english-language repertoire which, although marketable and profitable, needed, i feel, a bit of updating...

CELINE, really, you are making us all very proud of you, and this new album could, for the first time, be somewhat equivocal to some of the quality records you've put out in your native French language...

i am so excited by the producers you've chosen to work with, the orchestrations and beats and guitars and all the sounds that will be featured on this new creation of yours, and i just feel like you're showing not YOUR true side (as we know she is all LOVE...All THe Way!), but rather, ANOTHER side of your being, so yah...

LV, thanks so much for filling us in on this new album; we, the fans, truly appreciate your time and dedication...

peace to all, especially CELINE!

- ANewDay...

P.S. : You're so the best!

That's the same song posted earlier from Christina's peformance at the grammys. However this version is much bettter than Christina's screamfest which did nothing for me but a beginning to a headache.

Still this song is a bit slow, and a bit boring, but very soulful, and it sounds as a song which Céline would choose to cover.

I wish I could know the differences between Celine's version of TC, and the Platinium's one.

I've loved this song from the moment I first heard it, even from Christina.
With proper musical arrangement and vocal confidence, the performance of this song can be a masterpiece.

It has a bit of a theatrical / musical play sound to it, don't you think?   

[tcherno]

After i left a comment on Perez website about celine's new english album and i asked them to change celine's picture,

"perez, cant you find a better picture for Celine? it is an old one from her 1999 Au Coeur Du Stade de France world tour concert"

well, ...


they changed Celine photo from her 1999 Au Coeur Du Stade de France concert to one of the D'Elles photo shoot. good work perez

a little wiki

The song was originally recorded by Leon Russell and released on May 1970 on his self titled album.



Then was made popular by Donny Hathaway who released it on his self titled album on April 2, 1971

who is mentioned on Amy Winehouse's song "Rehab"
"I'd rather be at home with Ray
I ain't got seventy days
Coz there's nothing
There's nothing you can teach me
That I can't learn from Mr Hathaway"

THE VEGAS QUEEN
CELINE DION!!!!!

[JP]

Wow, every steps of the album are on Perez's website, we couldn't ask for better publicity!!
Ok team celine, give us 30 seconds of Taking Chances!

[carlottazenere]

so happy and excited..thanks cèline!!!!taking chances is the best title you could choose..I can't wait 3months!!!it's too hard!!!

[tcherno]

i think she will have a show that night

[newyorksnl15]

Thanks so much for the description, it sounds great that she is taking a more rock sound to her album. Can't wait for the album!

[bruno_oliveira]

vma is a good thing to promote "the new celine"

i think she will do something...

[celinefan1985]

According to French fans on another forum, 2 songs that were not revealed but are DEFINITELY on the album according to their sources are:

It Will Never Go Away (with Ne-Yo)
Remember The Day (with R. Kelly)

What's up with this?  Seems they may have a few tricks up their sleeve...can't wait for "official news" as to what is actually going to be on the freakin' album!

(And wasn't someone mentionning that they thought the album should be called Eyes on me, and now we hear of a track with this title?  seems like we have a few "insiders" here!)

And here is the crowning moment of newcomer celebrity JosephNielson...

"LMAO, you guys could always make a fake doctor's note saying you have a pace maker and that's why you beep going through the metal detectors. They'll pat you down, but probably not very well. It would be easy to sneak in a phone!"

...Joe..

        

Rene and Celine will probably NEVER forget that comment!!              

OMFG!    LMAO!  That is freakin' wild!  Never did I ever imagine that comment would make it so far as to get to René.  I hope he took it as a joke since that's what it was meant as.  (Thanks for the celebrity comment, KimboCosmo.  LOL)

As for the album preview review, WOW is all I can say!  It sounds like this is going to be a really amazing album!  Plus, it's nice to know the title of the album is tentatively titled Taking Chances and not The Woman In Me.

Thank you so much, LV, for going to this amazing event.  I'm sorry the crowd wasn't more into the moment.  Their loss.  They probably didn't realize how unique and how limited of an event this is.  Hopefully someday they will and will then come to appreciate it.

November is NOT getting here fast enough darn it!  LOL

News copied from here again.  

posted by Say What? http://www.celinedio...a...&pid=616795

"Eyes on Me" was already confirmed on Delta Goodrem's official site.

We already knew that Delta contributed a song called Eyes On Me for a few weeks/months now.  Thats why Mathias suggested it as an album title.
