I've been reading many people saying this is a filler on the album, but I really like it and I think it deserves its own thread.

The first time I heard Thank You, it was stuck in my head for hours. It's a beautiful song, very meaningful.

One of my favorites.

The lyrics are what make this a winner for me. The combination "Thank You"/"Thankful" is now what I'm looking forward every day I play the CD. :wub:

"Thank you," are the 2 words i probably say the most during my day and the 2 words i hear the most as well.

Last thing i want to listen at the end of the day, is Celine repeating these 2 words over and over and over for 4 minutes...

I dislike it.

I ADORE this song. "Just before I lay me down to never wake... :cry: " that line is quite possibly the most powerful and emotional line on the whole album.

I get shivers every time I hear this song.

I can't belive there are people that don't like this one or think it's a "filler"

The first few times I listened to it, I liked it but it just wasn't a fave.  After a few more listens and really paying attention the song, it's definitely grown on me & become a favorite just like many of the other songs on the album.  It's so beautiful and moving but the way it's arranged it still has a modern sound/edge to it.  I agree....the lyrics "before I lay me down to never wake...." just gets me.  It makes me think about when I'm 80, what will I look back on and be thankful for?  I wonder if she thought about this for herself or for Renee (not trying to sound morbid, cynical, or anything) while she recorded this.  She is getting older but Renee is definitely getting up there.  Not saying he's going anywhere anytime soon but I've noticed, especially with this promo, I haven't seen him like we used to see him.  Yes, in pix getting out of cars, etc. but not really sitting in the audience and front facing like he used to.  Just a random thought/observation.

This song is extremely touching, the lyrics full of love and emotion, is very sad but with a happy ending, the music, Celine's voice. WOW

I LOVE this song.  It literally took me at least five or six listens to get through it without crying.  I dedicated BYLM to my mom way back in 1996 and I immediately thought of her when I first heard this and how it's a follow up to BYLM in that way.  Beautiful lyrics, beautiful arrangement.  It's one of my very facorite on the album.  Filler?  KILLER.

I think Celine should dedicate this song to the fans!
She can sing it for us and vice versa! Don't you think? ^_^

Just a friendly face
Or maybe just a smile
Someone that understands
What I’m going through right now
And just before I lay me down to never wake
I look up and I see you
So with everything I am

Thank you
Thank you
Because you didn’t have to
Thank you
Thank you
With everything I am

Thank you :)

It's like an English version of her song Pour Vous from 'C'est Pour Toi', the message is basically the same. She could sing Pour Vous in francophone countries and Thank You in other countries as a dedication to her fans on a possible future world tour.

My second favourite on the album (breakaway is my top). But this song is so beautiful i don't understand why a lot of people are passing over this one, her voice sounds so intimate and emotional on this one it gets me every time.

Ok at first I didn't like the song I thought it was a filler song but guess what last night and this morning I had the chorus stuck in my head and I didn't listen to it...so it isn't my favorite but it is growing on my (along with ABYG).

I really like this song too, although I didn't at first and thought it was a bit of a filler mediocre song. But as a few of you have said the line 'lay me down to never wake' is really pungent and powerful. :)

This one has been one my favorites since the first time I heard it for all the reasons already mentioned, beautiful and moving lyrics, plus Celine's voice is just so heartfelt and emotional. No big notes, just pure emotion. So sweet. :wub:

Love the idea that it's a modern version of Because You Loved Me.

I also had an idea that this song is kind of a modern version of BYLM :)  I think 'Thank You' is one of the best songs not just on the album but one of the best songs she has recorded in 32 years actually :) And I know tastes differ but still I just CAN'T BELIEVE some fans consider this as a filler or something. To be honest I think the only filler on the album is 'Overjoyed'. It's OK, it's not bad at all, and it's kinda iconic to record a duet with Stevie Wonder but still i don't fancy that. I'd better fill the album with 'Mr. Paganini' instead of 'Overjoyed' actually :)

Have to agree, only skip one song on this album and its "overjoyed" it just doesn't do it for me. Would definitely prefer Mr Pagannini!
Her voice sounds incredible with the riffs she does.

I utterly adore this.

Céline Dion, music's greatest ever singer, the biggest-selling Canadian artist of all-time and most successful female live act ever - what's not to love?
