This song is currently #96 on the Pop chart on iTunes.  Anyone think this may be a possible 3rd single from Miracle?

It would make an excellent 3rd single off of Miracle.  What do you think?  I've always wanted this song as a single, and now my wish is coming true.
Faith!
Right beside you is where I’ll stay
Oh faith !
Just take me as I am... so please... have faith!

I think it's just because it's a song that fits Mother's Day concept.  :)

When it first came out, my first hope was 'Miracle' and it still is! I think it's wonderful. AMP is not new, and the words are just changed a bit. And besides, I don't think the public would go for it if everyone already knows it.

Just some thoughtful thinking.

BTW, I hope the FULL music video for 'Miracle' is released. I'm starting to think that it may not. :cry:

I also think Miracle should've been the first single.  It's the most radio friendly.

AMP is now up to #80.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I agree, Miracle should have been released from the beginning, i still feel that way. If there is a third single, it should be Miracle. However I think since the last two singles flopped, it's probably best to quit while we're ahead, 2 flopped singles is better than three. This album was so popular, I can't understand why the singles aren't doing well.

I'd love to see I Surrender get a release especially after the exposure Anthony Federov gave her on American Idol.

AMP is now #68.

A Mother's Prayer was released in an iTunes Essential: Mother's Day playlist, that musta boost it up some. :)

Also...iTunes created a "CELINE DION" Essentials!
You can buy each set for $25 or the entire set for $75. :P Of course we don't need that since we have all her CDs and more! :D

I hope iTunes will release something like the U2 collection, which included tens of never released rare tracks and live performances.

:confused: Help........my son is getting married in August and I'm madly searching for a song for us to dance to. I came upon "A Mother's Prayer" by Celine but I'm confused as to the lyrics.

Does anyone know exactly WHO she is singing this to and what exactly is she saying. The lyrics appear to be  a mother to son as it states, but she tells him to protect "her"..........his wife????

I've read the lyrics 10 times and still see it a different way each time.

If anyone could clear this up I'd be so appreciative.
Thanks so much,

Well I think it's about a mother to her baby girl asking for her protection as she grows becomes wise etc seeing as the album is "a celebration of new life". I think it's definitely a mother/baby daughter song.

I went to a wedding where mother and son danced to Thank You For Loving Me by Bon Jovi it was gorgeous...  :flowers:

Thanks so much,

I think it's more about asking god to protect and guide a daughter, rather then a son

I pray you'll be my eyes
and watch her where she goes
and help her to be wise
help me to let go
every mother's prayer
every child knows
lead her to a place
guide her with your grace
to a place where she'll be safe
I pray she finds your light
and holds it in her heart
as darkness falls each night
we mind her where you are
every mother's prayer
every child knows
need to find a place
guide her to a place
give her faith so she'll be safe
lead her to a place
guide her with your grace
to a place where she'll be safe


maybe Come to Me is more neutral...

Come To Me

I will always love you
no matter what
no matter where you go
or what you do
knowing you
you gonna have to do things your own way
and that's okay
so be free
spread your wings
and promise me
just one thing
(chorus)
if you ever need a place to cry
baby come to me
come to me
I've always known that you were born to fly
but you can come to me
if the world breaks your heart
no matter where on earth you are
you can come to me
don't walk around
with the world on your shoulders
and your highest hopes
laying on the ground
I know you think
you've gotta try to be my hero
but don't you know
the stars you wish upon
they fall that's true
but I still believe in you
(chorus)
and those seven seas you sail
or the winding road you roam
leave you lost and feeling all alone
let my heart be your beacon home
(chorus)


anywayz congrats on your son's wedding :wink:

"A Mother Prayer" is a prayer from mother to her girl, and it's in general, it's not supposed to be specific for someone from Celine's life, althought it's like she singing for Rene-Charles.

I have a son he's only 5 but this is the song I see us dancing to at his wedding.  I also think Mother's Prayer is for a girl and her mother is asking God's guidance.   Congrats on the wedding. God Bless.

Jackie Evancho has an amazing voice for her age. I have her album too. It was produced by David Foster!
There is a duet with Barbra Streisand. So maybe one day she will sing with Céline  :wink:

Jackie Evancho's voice is too young to sing that song; IMO, she does not deliver emotion because she didn't experience life yet she's like too young and inexperienced and that shows in her voice; Susan's voice, on the other hand, is much better and has more emotion into it. However, I like Celine's version w/ Andrea Bocceli far more; Andrea's voice is out of this world.

I think Susan Boyle, did a fantastic job of the song.
