Must Have Albums

[Davey84]

I thought this would be a great way to get to know your music taste beside Céline, and get to know other great music!

 

Here how it works: post the album cover, the tracklist, why you love it so much, and if possible some youtube links!

I was in Madrid with school, and there was a FNAC, they had this cd for sale and I listened to it. I fell in love with this album the first time I heard it! I didn't knew Isabelle Boulay that well back then. The songs on this album stand like a house! My favs are Autre Vie (great repeating music and refrain), Aimons-Nous, Chanteur Sans Mélodie (my heartacke love song), Tout Un Jour, Je Sais Ton Nom and Je Voudrais (the lyrics are so haunting, I cry sometimes when I hear it!

 

the first single: C'est Quoi , C'est L'Habitude

One of my fave songs Autre Vie

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIMK4quk62o

 

And maybe the best known song of the album: the duet with Johnny Holliday Tout au Bout de Nos Peines

[Alice]

Je voudrais is one of the most beautiful songs in the world

[Céline's Blues]

I second that Isabelle Boulay's album, Dejvej! Her live CD "au moment d'etre a vous" is also breathtaking.

 

Here my takes:

 

http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/1954/sine8bu.jpg

 

RoBERT - Sine

 

It's dark music for those who enjoy those typical charms of cold Europop coupled with amazing lyrics in French. Atmospheric music, mysterious rhythms and a fragile almost breaking voice of Robert makes this album one of best CDs ever recorded.

 

Here, the hit single from 1993, "Elle se promene":

 

http://youtube.com/watch?v=kFaKCx0062U

 

http://www.dance-lyrics.com/ama/fumbling_towards_ecstasy_b000002vn7.jpg

 

Sarah McLachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy

 

Before she went quite bland on her last two CDs, she was and surely still is somewhere within herself a truly unique artist who captures the sweetest emotions we are going through life and love, a true love Céline likes to sing about. It's S'il Suffisait D'aimer in English, a masterpiece of lyrical deliverly, vocals and emotional approach.

 

Videoclip to "Possesion": http://youtube.com/watch?v=B6s5jquF_0Y

 

Just beautiful.

 

http://recordinspector.soundmarketplace.com/images/shop/product/AB580.jpg

 

Another truly magical voice that coes from within a truly wise soul. Such albums happen only once in an artistic life span of a singer. Strangely every time sade releases an album it's a winner, a classic vintage sounding winner of smooth RNB, sophisti-pop and again dark rhythms which sound so good if listened with the person you love!

 

Never As Good As The First Time, videoclip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=NCihQPnma64

[Alice]

ok, here are mine, but it's by no means a complete list

Mylene Farmer: Innamoramento. Mylene's my favorite dark witch. And look at this cover!

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00000IPAR.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

 

Jan A. P. Kaczmarek: Finding Neverland OST. Now, people. IT'S A MUST!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pure magic I adore soundtracs in general, but this one is a real masterpiece.

http://www.merlin.com.pl/images_product/12/9863757.jpg

 

 

Josh Groban: Closer. Of course everone knows this album of my future husband

http://panther1.last.fm/coverart/300x300/2027553.jpg

[AllCeline]

If I ever got stuck on an island and was only permitted a limited amound of music, it'd be "A New Day Has Come," by Celine and the following.

 

http://img451.imageshack.us/img451/5717/mmsmallyq7.jpg

 

"Wild Hope" By Mandy Moore

Due to her previous mediocre work, I can't say that I was highly anticipating this album release from Mandy at all. However, time does play its part in all of us and Mandy was no exception. In "Wild Hope," Mandy Moore has reinvented herself; she's performed the transition from a characterless, bubble-gum teenage diva, into a sophisticated young woman who has realized that life is so much more than just candy and crushes. This, being Mandy's first album in which she's co-written in its entirety, is more than an exceptional album. The juxtaposition of pure, meaningful, and original lyrics with a soft but irresistible folk sound makes this album one in a million; by the end of track 12, all I could do is wish for more. The album displays Mandy's new discovery of the world beyond make-up and fame. It's impossible for one not to fall in love with. Mandy's been quoted saying that this is her last attempt at music but I see this as a brand new era for a newly matured artist. Goodbye bubble-gum pop, hello Mandy Moore!

 

YouTube:

- "All Good Things"

- "Extraordinary" (Music Video)

- "Looking Forward to Looking Back"

- "Gardenia"

 

* Also making the cut is "Harmonium" by Vanessa Carlton.

 

You just can't go without getting a copy of these two records.

[shakiria]

titanic soundtrack especially my heart will go on

 

james blunt album

 

and defentky snow patrol and a relaxing one like enya

[etjetaimeencore]

I agree with you for James Blunt!!

 

For me...all the albums of Il Divo!!!! and especially "Siempre" the 3rd one

[sayyed]

Annie Lennox: BARE

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000089RVU.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

 

The most perfect album I ever heard, there's not one track I skip. The Highlights are:

Wonderful, The saddest song I've got, Twisted , Erased, Pavement cracks, Hurting time

 

 

Sarah Brightman: HAREM

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008W2QZ.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

 

a very special album with a lot of highlights in it, it doesn't sound so arabic as the title suggests but there are true masterpieces included:

 

Arabian nights, a Beautiful Day, What you're never know, Free, Beautiful

 

Free MV

What you never know MV

 

Sarah McLachlan: AFTERGLOW

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000C6E4D.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

 

though many think it's one of her worst albums, I think its a diamond! It's almost perfect with just a few exeptions. The songs fit very well together and I loooove the lyrics.

 

Highlights:

Train Wreck, Perfect girl, Dirty little secret, Stupid, World on fire

 

 

Faith Hill: CRY

http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/41P5H6Q50RL._AA240_.jpg

A very good and diverse Pop-Rock album with true masterpieses on it. Faith uses her powervoice and flows with the songs... My favourite album from her.

 

Highlights:

Cry, Free, When the lights go down, This is me, Beautiful, I think I will, You're still here

 

Cry MV

 

Kate Bush: AERIAL

http://www.uergsel.de/uploads/KateBush-Aerial500.jpg

 

I'm not a great fan of Kate, mostly because of her voice, but this album is great. You need a few listens to get into the 2CD-album but then you'll be even more amazed.

 

Highlights:

 

Nocturn!!!!, How to be invisible, King of the mountain, Coral room, Somewhere in between, Joanni, Aerial

 

King of the mountain MV

 

the list isn't complete...

The album that relaxes me the most (other than Celine's) is Kenny G's Greatest Hits.

 

Fav. tracks include "How Could An Angel Break My Heart", "Songbird", "Havana"

 

 

And of course, The Essential Kenny G. Its even got a cover of "My Heart Will Go On". The smooth-sax is just what melts me away

[Mrs.Goldman]

Madonna - Ray of light

 

http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B000002NJS.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

 

This is my favorite album of all time. I think every song in it is absolutely perfect and I can't even choose a song that I hate more or less because everything is great on this album, starting with superb electronic production by Williamn Orbit and also the lyrics which are amazing. and Madonna, who isn't the best singer in the world, fits so well with every song that I absolutely adore it.

 

Alanis Morissette - Supposed Former Infatuation Junkey

 

http://www.hasharat.co.il/images/albumThumb_2857_122.jpg

 

Most people call her first album a masterpiece but I peresonally found her second album much more appealling and it talk to me alot more as well. It talks much more about social matters and also about sympathy and kindness and not just plain anger like in the first album.

 

Favorite songs:

 

Baba, Can't not, One, Your Congratulations

 

 

Jean Jacques Goldman - En Passent

 

http://www.gutsofdarkness.com/tft/_images/pochettes/3_3.jpg

Kate Bush: AERIAL

http://www.uergsel.de/uploads/KateBush-Aerial500.jpg

 

I'm not a great fan of Kate, mostly because of her voice, but this album is great. You need a few listens to get into the 2CD-album but then you'll be even more amazed.

 

Highlights:

Nocturn!!!!, How to be invisible, King of the mountain, Coral room, Somewhere in between, Joanni, Aerial

Sayyed, great to see you like this Kate Bush album. I love it too. Nocturn is breathtaking. The second disc A Sky Of Honey is amazing.

 

--------------

 

Igor Strawinsky - Le Sacre Du Printemps. The greatest ballet ever written, and my favorite classical piece. There is a great recording of this by the Berlin Philharmonics with Karajan and another one by the the Cleveland Orchestra with Boulez

 

Keith Jarrett - Facing You. Amazing album for those who love the piano. It's basically haunting piano improvisations put into songs

 

Tori Amos - Boys For Pele. Beautiful album, especially recommended after a break up. Tori wrote this when she broke up with somebody. She's equally talented on the piano as on the harpsichord. Great proove that a harpsichord isn't just there to play some sleep inducing Bach concertos

 

Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run. Just let's say it's his best album. It combines everything. Great piano lines, rocking guitar riffs - and the amazing epic moment of Jungleland. Typical Springsteen sound from the early years.

[Nmj]

Everyone I know that arent even Celine fans have her CD " All The Way" and I know this is suposed to be no celine but that is the most must have album ever

 

I Mean: The Power of Love, Because You Loved Me, My Heart Will Go On

3 of Celines HUGE HITs 3 of those songs along are worth it to but that CD

-Nmj

[Jvix]

Two Horizons - Moya Brennan

10 Sailing Away

12 Is It Now

13 Mothers Of The Desert

14 Harpsong

15 Two Horizons

16 Bonus Track: Show Me (Jakatta Mix)

 

A very special album, one of my favourites. A mix of Celtic (Irish) and Electronic music. A masterpiece

 

She's Enya's sister and the lead singer of Clannad
