Please cast your vote for the song you would most like to be included in the video! You may vote more than once, but please only vote for the songs you truly feel would fit our video best. Also, you may cast a vote even if you are not a participant in our video.

“I Drove All Night” has already been chosen for the intro.

Please vote!! And leave any extra comments or other suggestions regarding the music. I’m curious to know if you’d rather we use all Céline songs (since the majority of the suggestions were songs of hers) or if we should include songs by other artists as well.

If you know of any other songs by French artists that might work - please suggest them here!

Feel free to post lyrics/clips to songs you feel strongly about being included.

Thanks!!

*Keep in mind "Simply the Best" by Tina Turner was previously used in Céline's 40th birthday video.

how long will be this video?

[ashleylovesceline]

I'm hoping around ten minutes... if you're wondering how many songs I will actually need -- about three or four.

[Cheerfuljane]

Looking at it from Celine's point of view, I'd suggest we don't use one of her songs.
I think she would enjoy the video more.

From a fans point of view a Celine song would be better.

Who's more important?  :mmm:  

[Chellbie]

this is a GREAT idea ashley! Love the poll!

I think that the majority of songs used should be not Celine's HOWEVER, taking chances and my love are two songs that seem like that hafta be used somewhere in it! The video is of her tour.. Maybe atleast one full song of mixed Celine snippits.. =)

Everyone vote!

ps. Hall and Oats is a GREAT SONG!

[ZoraSourit]

I voted only for Céline songs: Taking Chances, My Love and Can't Fight This Feeling.

I know, I feel that way too --- but it's not up to me, which is why I asked for a vote.

Maybe we'll do half Céline songs, and half other artists. I'd really like to use a French song somewhere, and the only French songs suggested were hers.

Personally, I like Chicago "You're the Inspiration" and David Cook "Time of My Life". Also, "My Love" and "Taking Chances" would be great to use. The name of the tour is Taking Chances, and there are a lot of photos of fans meeting Céline, so "My Love" would fit. "How did you know I'd take the time for you..."

Keep voting everyone!

Taking Chances!!!!

[KimboCosmo]

I love this!  Can't wait to be a part of it, and see the final results!  I'm sure it will be BEAUTIFUL and make Celine's smile hook from ear to ear!

I agree on what Jane said.. so maybe half and half would be the way to go in my opinion as well.

As for the songs.. I was unable to cast my vote as I had previously viewed the results and now it won't let me vote anymore. However, I also like the songs Ashley mentioned best suited for this video.

"Taking Chances" and "My Love" are new songs, so I would rather have those songs on this World Tour Video than any of her previous ones such as "Because You Loved Me", "To Love You More", albeit great songs as well. They have just been played so much already.

As for the other artists' songs I also like David Cook's "Time of My Life" as well as Chicago's "You're the Inspiration". Tina Turner's "Simply the Best" is without a doubt a magnificent song, but it was used in the birthday video, so maybe it would be better to use some other songs this time...  

[ashleylovesceline]

Aw, thanks Kim!

Thanks, Jenni for your input!

Everyone keep voting!

[Simon]

My Love
PQTME
TLYM Mix

Only Céline    

[destin139]

show must go on
what a feeling

maybe one celine song but not all hers

[Shesings2me]

Hey good lady, I voted! A mix would be ok, but Celine songs make me the most happy! I need to get my Tacoma & Winnipeg pics to you ASAP huh? Ok...I'll get her done!  

[CellyDee87]

I can't believe the response for My Love for this video, I don't think it's very fitting at all in my opinion , hopefully it is something more upbeat and descriptive of what the tour was to US I think sometimes we can misinterpret My Love, Can't Fight The Feeling is a great song to incorporate its fresh and new and hasn't been used before and we are "hooked on the Celine feeling"

[anewdayhascome]

yeah, i would not include it at all
We have already made videos with it for My life my love so i think we'd better do sth else

[ashleylovesceline]

Wow! I thought the vote would be bit more close than that...

Keep voting!

[ashleylovesceline]

Ok, so we're a bit divided on whether or not to use all Céline songs... And I think "My Love" and "Taking Chances" are definite favorites!

And I also should have asked, but didn't think of until last night. What do we think about using short clips (from bootlegs obviously) of Céline saying "Is that alright, [city]?!" at the beginning. It's a neat idea, but it all depends on if we want to use bootleg recordings...

Keep voting!

[Chellbie]

i think thats a cool idea ashley. I dont think it would be too much of a problem to use bootlegs for that reason! =) very cute

[Terre]

I voted for Can't Fight The Feelin', The Time Of My Life and What A Feeling. I think we should use both Céline songs and non-Céline songs.

[takeachance]

I voted. Eyes on me, show must go on, tme of my life, river deep. mountain high. Songs with energy. I think it wud probably be more appropriate to use Celine songs, its her tour. And i would not use My Love... That song makes her cry.... its too slow

[ashleylovesceline]

It amazes me that the desisicon to use all Céline songs or not is that divided... wow.

The decision is all of yours... but I really like David Cook "Time of My Life". Another fan suggested it, and I hadn't really paid much attention to the song until now. I really think I can make this song work. It works for both sides, imo, for them and for us.

Which brings me to my next advice - remember this video is for them and not for us. Of course, Céline songs make us happy, but I think they might appreciate a little variety. Also, I'm surprised more of you didn't vote for "Dans Un Autre Monde", I thought that would fit pretty well - and I think we need at least one French song. "Pour Que Tu M’aimes Encore" is the highest rated so far.

Right now we're at all Céline songs: My Love (live), Taking Chances, Can’t Fight The Feelin’, A World To Believe In, & Because You Loved Me.

I agree the majority of songs should be upbeat. It would be more fun to watch that way.

About the "My Love" debate... I can see both sides. But so far it's the favorite? Maybe those of you who voted for it could explain why, and those of you who don't agree with using it could explain why.

Keep voting!! I will keep the poll up as long as I can.

Remember this Saturday (the 10th) is the deadline for all show during 2008!

[Sabjsc]

  great idea!! I voted the songs!! I love this project

[stevo]

Hey Asheley- I think the song should defo be upbeat whatever it is- so I don't personally know about My Love- I think the idea of the "is that alright..." bootleg clips would be cool- like introducing each city on the video

Edited by stevo, 09 January 2009 - 09:51 AM.

[celinedream]

i think you should include non Celine songs too. I loved the shrek2 song used in her bday video also I think you have a good idea on the structure of this video, so really you have the last word. I trust you.

[maceta_biloxi]

Well i still don't know about Celine or non-Celine songs but if we use non-Celine at least we can use songs from singers she like: whitney houston for example, what about "you light up my life", all those artists that she always mentions on interviews she grew up listening to like Janis Joplin and Carole King. I think that would make more sense and would be more interesting for her, of course IDAN at the beginning is a MUST!

[ce-line]

Nice poll!
I voted for both Céline- and non-Céline songs!

[ashleylovesceline]

Thanks, guys!

The vote is pretty close, but keep voting -- I will definitley try to use songs that you have voted for.

Send photos for shows in 2009, as soon as you can!

[nano]

"Dans Un Autre Monde" is a great song but I'm not sure about the lyrics..same thing with "The Show Must Go On" ?!?!
"My Love" - I love this song but it's too sad song for the video
"Je Ne Vous Oublie Pas" - beautiful song and lyrics are great. "I won't forget you. No, never..."   But it's too slow...

The song should be uptempo, fun and energetic.  
If the video is for Celine I'd love use non-celine song(s)...or maybe we could make a fun remix of her songs. That would be unique, something created by us...idk.  

which is more important the melody or the lyrics??
