"You And I" is the official Hillary Clinton campaign song!

[blue.grave]

Like I said before, I would do anything to get Bush out of office. If Hillary is the way Bush out then I am so there. And to add the song You and I is a good choice for her.

I've always believed that any publicity, good or bad, is good for an artist or someone in the public eye. It's usually better than no publicity. Although Celine really is at a point of being so successful that she truly does not need the publicity I still think that this recent event can only help her. Some artists are very vocal about their politics and are very public about it and we all know who some of them are. Others keep things a little more private, like Celine. Sometimes I get mad when I see some celebrities trying to force their ideals on everyone when a majority of them have no idea what they are talking about. Just because you are famous for fifteen minutes and can maybe act or sing or play some sport well doesn't all of the sudden make you an expert on world politics!

 

I think it's fun to see that Celine's song was chosen. Celine will be on tour in Europe most if not all of 2008 so she will not have to deal with the US press as much. I don't think she can vote in the US but I'm sure she will be getting a lot of questions about her song being chosen for this campaign. She can handle the press very well so it will be interesting to see her reactions during the next year.

So Celne being associated with Hillary is not a good thing for me.

 

 

So many people are so over reacting to this. Celine did not associate herself with Hillary. Hillary and her supporters could have picked any song as their campaign song. Just because Hillary will be using "You & I" doesn't mean that Celine supports Hillary...also it doesn't mean that she doesn't...it just doesn't really mean anything at all. So to say that Celine being associated with Hillary is not good for you, to me that is saying that you think Celine purposely associated herself with Hillary and she did not. So rather you like Hillary or not, they are just using a Celine song and that shouldn't change anything about how you feel about Celine!

[Love,]

I have been in love with this song from THE VERY BEGINNING.

I don't care if it's simple. I LOVE IT.

 

It's beautiful, powerful, direct, and motivational.

 

There is a soaring melody that simply uplifts you in an atmosphere of love and optimism.

 

We're human beings, and we're born to a blessing to each other, to work as a team together, for the sake of humanity.

Although it was a political song to begin with, because it was written as a promotional song for an airline company, I feel that there is DEFINITELY substance and meaning to the song, as it can relate to the human experience.

 

I am so happy this song could now be shared with many, many people.

 

WONDERFUL! :wub: :wub:

Yeah, I agree. Celine had nothing to do with this. The only "blame" might be with all of the Celine fans voting multiple times on the web site. I'm still not clear if the song actually won by the most votes or if Hillary just chose it herself?

I meant that the name CELINE DION is now associated to HILLARY CLINTON because of this contest. Read all the newspaper headlines and you'll see what I mean. I NEVER said that Celine purposely associated herself with Hillary. You misinterpreted what I said. And I'm NOT overreacting. I'm just stating my opinion. I thought that's what this place was for.

I agree with you. I love this song and I'm happy if the song gets more airplay now.

"destructo-beam vocals" lol. So true

[WendyB]

The publicity is working (at least in the UK). Sarah Kennedy (on BBC Radio 2) played "You and I" this morning. First time I've heard one of Céline's songs on the radio in a long time! Pity Sarah cut the song short

again , such a waste that celine doesnt have a record label

as much as i hate this song if they release this song right now to the radio stations and to legal downloads - it might be her biggest hit do date . it will be no 1 in the u.s thanks to the downloads - i'm certain about it...but they have to release it right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now now now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

can't she start her own label with all this money ? whor*** did, didn't she?

[Bullet]

I thought that song had already been released in the US last year... It was played in AC stations. Am I dreaming?

[Shaun]

I agree gogo. Although i'm not a huge fan of "You and I" either it's an UNBELIEVABLE chance for Sony to make some money and for Celine to rocket up the charts. Sony should send the song to all US radio stations now and make it available on Itunes and heck, even in stores. People are so interested in this song right now that it will sell everywhere.

[Teodora]

I thought that song had already been released in the US last year... It was played in AC stations. Am I dreaming?

Yes, it was released a couple of years ago. It can't be released again. Besides, I'd rather have another song be Celine's biggest hit Too bad she didn't launch her English album around this time, with all the publicity it would have done well...

Céline Dion, Jon Stewart et le «Canada français»

 

Le comédien Jon Stewart, animateur du Daily Show, un bulletin d’information satirique, a consacré hier soir son monologue d’ouverture à You and I, choisie par les Américains comme chanson officielle de la campagne présidentielle de Hillary Clinton. Voici comment Stewart a commencé son monologue : «La candidate démocrate en tête dans la course à la présidence a l’habitude d’appeler sa campagne ‘une conversation avec l’Amérique’.»

 

Après un retour sur le processus qui a mené à la sélection de la chanson de Céline Dion, Stewart a fini son monologue sur ces mots : «Hillary Clinton, pourquoi nous as-tu demandé de t’aider? Tu devrais peut-être commencer à appeler ta campagne ’une conversation avec le Canada français’.»

 

Source: Cyberpress.

 

I'm amazing he didn't make fun of Celine, that's a first for him, I think.... He just said that Hillary's campaign name is "a conversation with America" and that she should have asked for help and could have called her campaign "a conversation with French Canada".

Why do so many of you dislike Hillary so much? I`m just curious.

Sorry for going off topic a little but I was asked and I answer:

 

I'm not republican and I don't like Hillary. I'm democrat wholeheartedly and I can't stand the woman. She reacts on emotion and that's not good. When David Geffen decided to support Barrack Obama and not her she got all offended that he had trashed her and her husband and said Obama should give the money back because of what Geffen said. That's so stupid. And just after 9-11, there were reports that the terrorists crossed the Canadian border to enter the USA (which we know now is totally false). She went on to say that the Canadian government needed to tighten it's security and not let terrorists enter he USA. She talks without thinking or analysing a situation and that's not the kind of person who should run a country. If she wins the election, this will be another disaster. We had to endure 8 years with a drunken lunatic and now we'll have to endure at least 4 years of emotional crap. May God save us all.

 

So Celne being associated with Hillary is not a good thing for me. She's not the devil... she's just not qualified to be the President.

 

 

 

Regarding David Geffen, Geffen is playing politics supporting obama, pissed that Bill wouldn't pardon a native american activist he felt was falsely accused a murder. His hatred of hillary is directly related to this even though she had nothing to do with the dispute with Bill. Hollywood types including spielberg need to stay out of politics. They make the democratic party look nothing more like a home for the cultural elite.

 

number 2, as far as homeland security no candidate has a perfect record on this. Obama is even more liberal at points on the issue. however you are wrong when you say that the border to canada is safe. No border is safe. I suggest you watch Lou Dobbs for a week and you'll find this out.

 

Third, no other candidate has done more to protect the health of 9/11 workers than Hillary. It is her greatest achievement

 

Fourth, you can't say one minute that Hillary is too emotional and criticize her for being emotionally detached the next. Obama is perhaps the candidate driven most by emotion. Watch his '04 keynote speech. There is nothing wrong with being emotional. You make it sound like if she had extreme pms she would drop the bomb on china. Lets be serious.

That has NOTHING to do with what I said. I SAID that Hillary asked Obama to give back the money Geffen gave him for his campaign. Why would he do that? Because she's angry that Geffen is talk trashing her and her husband? Stupid request!

I NEVER said that the Canada/USA border was safe. Jesus read before replying. I said that the 9/11 terrorists didn't enter the USA through the Canadian border and yet, Hillary blamed Canada without knowing the facts.

 

Third, no other candidate has done more to protect the health of 9/11 workers than Hillary. It is her greatest achievement

She has done great things.

 

Fourth, you can't say one minute that Hillary is too emotional and criticize her for being emotionally detached the next. Obama is perhaps the candidate driven most by emotion. Watch his '04 keynote speech. There is nothing wrong with being emotional. You make it sound like if she had extreme pms she would drop the bomb on china. Lets be serious.

A speach is something prepared in advance where the content has been carefully tought of. The delivery of it may include emotions and that's fine by me. But tat's NOT what I'm talking about. Hillary REACTS based on her emotion. Everyone does. What bothers me is that she doesn't take time to analyze a situation before moving forward with her thoughts. That's not how a World Leader should react. They have to sit down with her team and think things through and see all angles of a situation. Hell she may decide to nuke David Geffen's house if we let her be in charge

 

I'd rather see Celine be the President and have her ask people to go buy kayaks in preparation for, God forbid, another devastating flood like Katrina.

[smw]

Let's not make this a BIG political discussion. This is in the Celine Discussion section, anyway.

[amelie]

Since me and billions of others are not gonna vote in those elections i don't consider the winner as "world leader"

Ok, I was just going to post my opinion and leave it at that, but since you were so rude I`ll say this and be done with it....it is difficult to take you seriously when you can not bring yourself to proof your spelling. It is also difficult to take your issues with Senator Clinton seriously when it is clear your anti-Hillary bias is blinding you to the facts of her voting and policy record.

[Macaronie]

I'm not sure about this... i think it's ridiculous lol

[Mozinha]

This is a Celine board, not a politics board. Why bother fight about it here?

 

And yay Celine the song is playing again!!!!

Oh! Now I see what you're really about. I'm sorry I wasted all my time trying to make a decent conversation with you and others. I now realised it was a waste of time. Comeinto the off topic section and discuss politics if you realy have something intelligent to say

 

This is my last post in this topic about politics. Sorry for going off topic.

 

And to keep this a little more on topic, do you think Celine will actually appear live to sing "You And I" during Hillary's campaign??

[kathyc25]

I apologize I went off topic as well, all I wanted to do was voice my opinion, I didn`t mean for it to turn into a big political debate.

[Celine=Love]

Although I don't agree with Hilary's politics, I can appreciate her choice in music for the campaign. Not only cause I'm such a fan of Celine's music, but that the song is inspirational, upbeat and conveys that positive movement that any politician would like to portray. I hope this will push the morons at Sony to re-release this song with much more airplay and give it the credit it deserves!

[ErwinG]

welll guess the Celine true fans voted for her song to be Clinton's campaign song EVEN if they support her or not

[Nmj]

You Know What we all have our own views on other topics thats what make AMerica so great it's free to feel this way.

 

After all this Argueing we all have at least 1 thing in common we Love the voice of a angel Celine Dion...

But speaking of this topic we Americans are just happy to hear Celines name on Tv shows such as the View. GAM, Regis and Kelly and Newspapers and ect... Very Exciting because she is getting a lo of advertisments becuase most end the topic by saying her final performance is the 15th of Dec...and adding her sellout run...

SO we all have one HUGE isssue we agree On That's CELINE
