That Celine feeling

[Zora]

Saw the Mighty One for the first time last month, and OH MY GOD! I spent nearly the whole 90 mins just trying to persuade myself that she was in fact right there just a few metres in front of me, I kept thinking I was still just watching her on TV! I didn't know whether to look at her or the dancers or the floating things high above or listen to her voice, I couldn't process it all!

 

The best bit is when she comes on in the black and red outfit with her hair in a ponytail, she just looked like a complete goddess, so powerful and strong and yet there's this weird sense of vulnerability, especially when she's alone onstage. You suddenly realise she's a real person, it's so strange, I just sat there gobsmacked! I'll never forget this experience!

 

Did any of you guys feel like this? Share you experiences!

I saw her in November for the very first time too. I just couldn't take my eyes off her. I saw the show three times....I don't really know what's going on with the rest of it, except for Celine It was really hard for me to look at something else beside her. I stayed in the fourth and second row, orch 4, and she was so so so close... I could hear the heels on the stage when she was walking, I could hear the sound of her hand when she was slapping on her leg... She's so mesmerizing, she's got such a powerful presence, she's soooo beautiful and soooo delicate, yet strong, like you said. I still can't believe I saw her for real... GOD, I MISS HER!

I know exactly what you mean, Zora. The first time I saw Celine, I couldn't even breathe when she first came out singing AND! But she was so far away, it seemed, even though I was in the 4th row. Then she kept getting closer and closer, then I felt like I could reach out and touch her! My whole insides were shaking! It was so intense! I know she is only another person, just like anyone else. But I just love her soooo much, and waited to see for so long, I couldn't believe she was right there in front of me! I'm going back for the taping. It will be my 3rd time seeing the show, but 1st time since the new changes. I CAN'T WAIT!!!

I felt the same way my first time seeing her, back in 2004. I made myself so nervous that my stomach was in knots! When I sat down in 6th row, and Celine came out....omg, i couldn't believe that I was in the same room with her, breathing the same air. I felt the way you all felt. It was such a beautiful experience!

It's so strange and lovely that we all have the same feelings, I felt like my stomach was in knots too, think I was shaking a bit aswell! I had to keep taking my glasses on and off coz I felt like when I had them on I was seeing her on TV again, but then when she went further away I couldn't see properly That along with my mouth hanging open, I must have looked like such an #ss!

When the usher says 'you can't leave while Celine is singing' I just thought, oh my f***ing god CELINE DION? I'm actually here!' like I'd only just realised.

I was so surprised how intimate the Colisseum is, so much smaller than it seems on the screen, and that just adds to the intensity of it all, makes you feel so close to her though I think you feel that in the biggest of stadiums, such is her magic. I wish I'd gone more than once now

The disconcerting thing was that at the end everyone just left, I wanted to sit there for hours in shock, you just kinda think 'do you people not realise what you've just experienced?!' I think we should have all gone together, at least we'd understand eachother!
