If you were Diane Warren,

[RRphantom]

If you were Diane Warren,a super songwriter,would you felt angry or depressed when Celine refused to record your songs or took away you songs from the songlist of the album ATW?

(I mean the songs "Would I Know,Run like a river" which were replaced by "then you look at me")

[Céline's Blues]

...I would hang myself on the nearest tree. Without hesitation.

Too bad you weren't Diane right?

[thevoice]

diane warren is an amazing song writer and i wish celine could work with her more...i know that something happened there between celine's team and diane or maybe even between celine and diane and apparently they r not talking to one another for years - too bad

[puffa]

Probably I'll get angry with me ... not with Céline, because she's the person who'll sing the song that I've wrote and she has to like it... otherwise, she'll not sing it.

 

but, I'll try again and again and again ... till Céline like one of my songs.

I think that's what Dianne did, and annoys Celine. She kept trying to convince Celine to like and sing her songs, even if she doens't like it at all.

[kathyc25]

I`d feel a little upset, but that`s the business...and I think I would get over it pretty quick...a lot of people are clamoring for Diane to write songs for them

[songbird]

Diane Warren is a brilliant songwriter and her songs suited Celine perfectly.

If I were Diane, I'd keep my best songs in the drawer for when Celine decides to work with me again. Believe me, in her early 50s Celine will return to Diane as she will to David Foster.

[Dansons]

I don't know clearly what happened between Celine and Diane.

but I am sure it's a big loss for Celine ,Diane,and the fans.

Hope we can listen to the songs cooperated by Celine and Diane again.

[alextrusca]

I adore the songs she wrote for Celine during the "Celine Dion" ~ "Falling Into You" period.Even "I Want You To Need Me" was a beautiful song.But "Would I Know" doesn't really showcase Celine's vocal abilities...And probably, she never chose to add the song fo the album.As for "Run Like A River", I saw a few months ago that it was planned to appear on the ANDHC album.But I don't know if it was a rumour or not.

She annoys Céline. Céline doesn't like to work with her. There was a song (I don't remember which song it was) written by Diane that René loved very much and made Céline listen to it until she fell in love with the song too and only latter told Céline who had written it.

We rarely hear Celine complaining about the people she works with. I guess Diane must be really annoying or Céline wouldn't let Georges Hebert Germain write about it on her 1997 bio.

 

Maybe Diane needs to improve her work ethic.

its buisness somewtimes and you can't take it personally. would i know and ru like a river just weren't what celine team was looking for at that time. it doesn't mean they aren't great songs

yeahh that's the story but i have to say it's a little strange cause dianne is not the producer or anything - she actually doesnt have to be in the studio working with celine , all she has to do is give her the song - david and humberto will do the rest .

uh .. I didn't know that. But, I'm sure I'll not do it... I said it without thinking.

 

I'll try to understand why Céline didn't like my lyrics. I think it's just the perfect way when something goes wrong... in all the issues of life!

uuuhh what a poor story ... I didn't know that. I don't know too much about Dianne.

 

But ... for what I understood, Dianne must really bored Céline... Because, I think, Céline isn't a person who keeps bad feelings about a person too much time. She's a person who love life and people too much to be really angry with someone.

 

 

 

It's okay for me ... Céline had a decision and we just have to respect it. She did waht she wanted to do!!!

[Yentl Anchel]

Well in fact I am happy Celine doest do much Dianne Warren songs anymore, i mean Celine gives unknown writers a change too and I lioke that, I also like the fact that Celine is diong more uptempo songs now a days and not those balads all the time. Not to say I hate the work of Diane not at all i like her songs and I listen to them on a regular base. But Céline should record an other Prince song or write her own stuff she is good in it I know she is.

[Leone]

But isn't it also a money issue.. When they discovered that Celine was milking in money to the writers/producers..

 

Celine's team wants to buy the rights of the material instead of paying a procentage of the sales..

So now they only accept unknown writers who sell them their songs, and want to get most of the money themselves..

[xo1hrt4celineox]

I had no idea about this between Celine and Dianne! When did this rift occur?? was there anything specific that sparked it or are we just guessing?

[Céline's Blues]

Céline won't work with Dianne anymore. That's for sure. I'd rather have her singing songs from Renato&Enzo Belucci.

How many songs she wrote for Celine after "All The Way"?

 

I think we have an answer to your question.

I hope that you meant... early 40s...

You know, if that information was given to the fans in her 1997 authorized biography, I wonder - why was "I Want You To Need Me" released? Do you think that maybe Celine and Diane were trying to mend their professional relationship?

Well, every time Celine sings BYLM during A New Day in Vegas, Diane makes more money. So I'm sure she doesn't have much against Celine, and I find it hard to believe that Celine has anything against her.

 

So regardless of what we think we know, we really don't know enough to assume anything.

 

Regardless, Diane was part of Celine's peak...and played a huge part in making Celine a household name. So I'll always be grateful for that. And I'm sure Celine will too.

I don't know anything about the relationship, but I do know that Diane supposedly writes songs 8 hours a day like a full time job.

Well, it's not that bad since if you divide up the hours and how much money she makes, she probably makes like $10,000 an hour! yeah.... that's a sad amount....

I believe she is very talented and seems to work to hard. I'm not denying that. Maybe she needs to improve her work ethic when it comes to working with other people. Group work is no joke. No matter how talented you are sometimes you just aren't good with dealing with people.

 

And answering about I want you to need me, we've all heard how professional Celine is. I guess she could take one annoying day with Diane for the sake of a beautiful song.

[Céline's Blues]

I think Céline really DISLIKED "I Want You To Need Me". I mean really. Now with the Dianne Warren connection her comments about this song make sense. Though she NEVER said she disliked it she said that it was very hard for her to sing it and the way she said it you knew she didn't enjoy it at all.

Sebmister, do you know where (media-wise) Celine said this comment about IWYTNM?

I would like a transcript

 

Because maybe, in terms of interpretation... maybe Celine meant that it was hard emotionally to sing it? I mean, it's a heart-breaking song!

Oy She dislikes I Want You To Need Me and later she writes in her booklet how much fun it was to record LIAWN?! Someone needs to slap her.
