Is it time for Céline to pay tribute to the queen?

[Céline's Blues]

Recently I've been listening to Merilyn's "One Silver Dollar" pretty often and at once thought that it would be THE perfect song for Céline and would be THE perfect song to put on her new CD to end the Vegas stint. It would summarize quite nicely what it's all about and of course it would pay tribute to THE icon of modern times.

 

One silver dollar

Bright silver dollar

Changing hands

Changing hands

 

Endlessly rollin'

Wasted and stolen

Changing hands

Changing hands

 

Spent for a beer he's drinkin'

Won by a gamblers lust

Pierced by an outlaw's bullet

And lost in the blood red dust

 

One silver dollar

Worn silver dollar

Changing hands

Changing hands

 

Love is a shining dollar

Bright as a church bell's chime

Gambled and spent and wasted

And lost in a dawn of time

 

Ooh-ooh..., Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh..., Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

 

One silver dollar

Worn silver dollar

Changing hearts

Changing lives

Changing hands

 

THE perfect Vegas song plus an amazing intrumentalization. In Vaya Con Dios' version (rather grand in comparison with Marylin's) you hear acoustic guitar at the beginning and grand drums at the end. It has a truly powerful effect on the listener. Céline's voice would soar on the "oooo ooohhh oooohh's".
