Terre was playback? Really? I don't hear it.... I can't stop watching the video! I love the dance she does at the beginning, too good!

Did you actually read the posts? Nobody said TERRE was playback Only WDMHBN, I only said that was one of the best TERRE performances EVER, if not the best!

Are you referring to Terre, or WDMHBN at the start of the video??

CELINE MARIE, on 18 January 2014 - 03:17 PM, said:

WDMHBN ofc

mike_z, on 18 January 2014 - 08:56 PM, said:

yeah we all know WDMHBN is playback. But I was talking about TERRE!

I guess I was confused because it looked like you were talking about Terre being playback!    But I can see where you were saying Terre was perfect I agree 100%!

Where does my heart beat now in antwerp 21th sounded amazing to me. Better then the bootlegs. I loved it:)

I've just realised from looking at the videos on Youtube, that Ziggy was performed 1 semitone lower than the original version throughout the tour!

The only other time it was lowered to -1 was during the LTAL tour when it was of the Acoustic Medley. Since then, during the TCWT, it went back to the original key.

I wonder why they decided to do it in a lower key again? It's very rare for the key to be lowered on her French songs, I assume it wasn't just an accident! Maybe they picked up the wrong arrangement when rehearsing the song

I was at the Céline concert on 21 november, i think the concert was just perfect and Céline was AMAZING

[Timster]

November 30 is by far the best performance of my favourite song of the tour, Regarde-moi. Here are 3 reasons why:

- She holds both the "que je vais lâcher..." and "rien à donner..." all the way into the chorus (she cut one or both of these notes short on other nights, taking a breath before starting the chorus)
- She sings the second "à coté de moi" just like the album version (higher, different to the first one)
- She sings the final "regarde-moi" along with the background singers (some nights she just mimed the words)

As far as I can tell, this is the only performance of the tour that features all 3 of these elements - other performances contain just one or two. If they ever release a live CD, this is the performance to include:

Great version!

Am I the only one who had noticed that Celine did not seems to be in the mood of the show the opening night on Dec 21? Not only that she was not on stage during a part of MHWGO, but the whole thing...

I saw it too. She was a bit.. I don't know.. it was the first concert of the tour, so it was maybe different for her, she did not know how the show would be received? But I don't agree that was the case in the whole concert, in the start it was, yes, I could see that. I could also see how humble she still is, even though she is a megastar.
This concert has been my best concert ever. I loved everything of it. It was so great and I would love to see it again. And how I would love it to have a videotape of the concert. At least we get Une Seule Fois instead. But this tour was pure magic with so many French songs I have never seen live before. It was amazing!

Do you have a Video of that night  would love to see it

Not sure what happened to her, but she was def. not 100% there that night. For me she had something else in her mind. She was dreaming... She forgot the lyrics of Immensité, she changed the lyrics of Qui Peut Vivre Sans Amour, She started All By Myself to early and yes... she started RDMH with "When i was a young girl".... instead "when i was a little girl".... What you can not hear on the bootleg is that she had sound problems from the beginning to the end of the show. I think that this was a catastrophe for her. So it was maybe a very difficult concert for her. BUT i still enjoyed it, she delivered a good show and we had a little bonus.... "Le Miracle" ;-)

That was freaking amazing footage!  I felt I was there again!  Wow ... wish I had taken my better camera with me that night :-S
Thanks to so many fans that filmed that night I can see so much of that night again:-)   Btw she looks so good on stage, she really has diva written all over her.
She is a superstar and the stage was so perfect in my opinion.  How much I loved this concert. I would do it over again, for sure, if I could!

[nuts2you]

I love her reaction on RDMH, in the beginning  of the song

I hope that you guys enjoy this,

I was wondering the same. I hope this week's print edition of Billboard will have it on their Boxscore column, but I haven't received it yet, and I wonder if I will before the 25th, as the mail is really slow.

I think their cut is let's say enough to buy Christmas presents for all her family, her employees, and everyone in this forum.

I think I have found the answer here. Ill explain why. Source is pollstar. Pollstar issue 2 charts at the end of the year, Top 200 North American and Top 200 Worldwide

http://www.pollstarp...ldwideTours.pdf
http://www.pollstarp...ericanTours.pdf

For the residency show Celine is at number 23 with 59 shows in the North American Tour list with a gross of $38.8 million.

On the World Top 100 list she is at number 25 with 68 shows (9 additional shows) with a gross of $55.7 Million. By this estimate the gross by pollstar is....

$16.9 million for 9 shows.

Crowd stands at around 103,200 people
Average concert gross $1.8 million

Its such a pity billboard didnt publish but this looks about right, not sure why Quebec isnt included, unless it is in the north american list.

Anyway some figures at least.

[boyblackuk]

Official figures for Antwerp 12 Celine Dion Sportpaleis Antwerp, Belgium Nov. 21-22, 2013 $5,061,190 28,630 /
30,730 2 / 0 $223.04, $189.25, $141.94, $67.59 C-Live
Not a sell out but over $5million for 2 shows 93% ticket sales

Hope everyone had a great time.  I am really hoping that Celine would go to London next year so I could see her for my 3rd time.  Everytime I see her its magic.

Wow I was ther November 29th, approximately the same row!!
That's so nice to view part of the concert I've been from quite the same point of view!
That day my phone batteries were down, and I forgot to bring a camera....

Thanks a million for this video
