Wow - does no one else on this forum remember how this song came about?  I'm surprised!  It was released on a Christmas compilation CD called "And So This Is Christmas" - I bought it just because Celine was on it - probably '99 or '00 due to where I was living at the time...maybe '01.  Most of the album is awful!  Ricky Martin has this crazy song called "Ay Ay Ay It's Christmas!", Gloria Estefan has this horrible ballad called "Love On Layaway" and Charlotte Church butchers "Silent Night".  Celine's song is only one of 2 on the album that I ever listen to - the other is Harry Connick Jr.'s "Silver Bells".  All the songs were recorded specifically for this CD and then there was a television special to promote the album where all the artists created a "video" where they just lip-synched the track from the CD (like an actual music video).

haha, yep I got the CD just for Celine too...some of the others were deff a little odd.  For some reason the TV special I still remember so vividly waiting up to watch. Idk why that one sticks out in my mind so much. lol.  Love this song tho!  Never heard it on the radio, but heard alot of her album in the past 2 week on the Sirius and regualr radio.  O Holy Night, Blue Christmas, Don't Save it All, Happy Christmas, Christmas Eve, Christmas Song.

This is one of my favorites too. I've never heard it played on the radio here.

[Celine Fan 77]

The Celine songs that are played on public places in my city more often are:

*All By Myself
*Et Je T'aime Encore
*I Drove All Night
*That's The Way It Is
*My Heart Will Go On
*Taking Chances
*Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore
*Beauty And The Beast
*Miles To Go (Before I Sleep)
*A New Day Has Come [Radio Remix]

I love the song and video, I watch it and listen each year.  One of my favs.  The video is sooo fun with Celine
singing up front then the other "3 Celine's" singing backup.  I love the tops with "Celine" written on the sleeves.  I think she was in an issue of TV Guide back around 99 wearing one of those.  I have that cd and I really like that Ricky Martin song, it sticks in my head when I hear it.  The Harry song is nice but kinda boring to me.

Yesterday I was in a big wearhouse store, and they played I Met An Angel on X-mas day

And later on Skyradio they played Christmas Eve

OH wow, thats the one!!   The ones worn by the backup "Celine's" were a lil different but I thought the same...I was hoping they'd sell them but they never did.  It woulda been a big seller if they offered them in different colors.  Too much of the clothing merchandise is geared directly towards females when some could be more neutral for us guy fans.

I was in a restaurant in Portugal last night and on the radio they played Celine's Happy Xmas (War Is Over)!!!

I have it on an import single of "That's the way it is"! I didn't know it was on another cd!

there is a new compilation in Portugal with Celine's version, I believe is that the reason why they are using that version in other places here

It isn't theirs to sell - it's by Celine - the French luxury fashion house owned by Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy.

You know, the first time I saw a CELINE shop, I thought it was Celine's !!!

[celinesounds]

Today they played Don't saved it all non Xmas Day

[Gicedi]

I Think that is a big mistake of them that they didnt include on the These are special times album. This album had so many re-releases that they could include that song too.

[volleyceline]

She's flawless in the video I wish I had long legs like that!

+1

Not to mention that its absurd that they did that great video and promoted the song all to never actually release a single of it. People that might want to look for this song on any of her releases won't find it, since it was included only in the TTWII cd single. Sony is just ri-di-cu-lous

And that's the only time we ever saw Celine sing backup! lol.

[mirage]

Wow. It wasn't on there last year during Christmas.

It took them a while. Are they trying to revive this song? It's a great one and it has a video so why not

The official audio is now on VEVO, hopefully they'll post the performance soon

[ryba]

stupid question: are the 3 backup singers Celines sisters, or is it really Celine who was filmed separately in 3 outfits and edited to one video?

To revive the song for Céline's super fan...or simply make casual fans discover it as it had never been released before (beside as TTWII B-side).

I would be nice to see TeamCeline send that song to radios to give TAST a boost ;-)

A Celine "Rarity"

Edit: Is it weird I can highly imagine Cher singing this song??

I've always loved this song!  So happy they finally upload it.  I also love that video of her singing back up in the wigs and Celine sweaters.  Plus she looks so great.

[Chantemoi]

It’s not on Apple Music yet 😢
