Ronny83 Posted March 15, 2005 at 11:13 PM Posted March 15, 2005 at 11:13 PM I hope it will be released on Céline's next album. It would be great to give fans the possibility of writing songs for her. Quote The Celine Dion Italian fanbase - CelineDionItalia.com

Bellamy Posted March 16, 2005 at 01:46 AM Posted March 16, 2005 at 01:46 AM NORM: Billboard fuels calls but none from Dion John Henderson has a song in his heart and a novel approach to grab Celine Dion's attention. The 53-year-old chemical engineer forked over $1,000 to run the following message on a billboard and bus stop bench: "Celine Dion, I've written a song for you, please call for words and music. John Henderson 858-2145." "You've got to take chances; if you don't you'll always regret it," said Henderson, who had the signs put up Nov. 2 in Henderson, not far from Dion's Lake Las Vegas home. So far, said Henderson, he's heard from radio stations in Ireland, England and California, ABC-TV's "Good Morning America," two hoaxster deejays with French accents and KVVU-TV, Channel 5. "And I got a call at 2 a.m. from a guy who said he was Steve Wynn," Henderson said. But no call has come from the superstar resident headliner at Caesars Palace. Henderson said he has the signs put up on Lake Mead Drive near Warms Springs Road because he's heard Dion shops near there, and "I figure if she takes a limo to Wal-Mart, she would see it." Word has it, he said, Dion has been looking for a song to sing to her husband, Rene Angelil. "She could take this song and soar with it," said Henderson, who estimates he has written 200 to 300 songs, but hasn't sold any as yet. Here's a sampling: "Will you love me when I am old and will you warm when I am cold. Beyond the stars, beyond the sky, I know our love will never die."Source: http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/200...s/22578898.html2003-12-24 - Wireless Flash Weird NewsCeline Dion Billboard Makes Nevada Man's Dreams Come True HENDERSON, Nev. (Wireless Flash) -- A 53-year-old Nevada man has had his songwriting dreams come true after renting a billboard on a dusty stretch of road outside of Las Vegas in hopes Celine Dion would see it and contact him. Water treatment chemical salesman John Henderson spent $1000 to post a sign on the road to Dion's Vegas-area home which reads "Celine Dion: I've written a song for you. Please call me for words and music." The gimmick seemed like a shot in the dark, but it has paid off for Henderson. He recently got a call from Dion's husband saying she'd seen the sign and wanted to invite him to her show. After the performance, Henderson was invited backstage, where he played his ballad, "Love Song," for the singer. He says Dion sang along with the song and agreed to consider recording it for her next album. In Henderson's words, "That's good enough for me."Source: http://www.ncbuy.com/news/2003-12-24/1008553.html I don't remember where I heard about ad on radio. but he did met Celine and Rene later. and this happened in 2003. he made the billboard in November, 2003. got responce in December.

Koolan Posted March 16, 2005 at 01:58 AM Posted March 16, 2005 at 01:58 AM Wow, this would open up many possibilites if Celine decides to use fan-written songs. I'm sure thare are quite a few songwriters on this forum. John, if you're lurking around..please come out of hiding and present yourself.

whosarahre Posted March 16, 2005 at 04:04 AM Posted March 16, 2005 at 04:04 AM first i want to say we are all a bunch of silly gooses! but i do hope its true. as celine would say "what a thrill!"

MontYeo Posted March 16, 2005 at 04:30 AM Posted March 16, 2005 at 04:30 AM I'd say that many of those who write songs for Celine are already her fans, eg. "A New Day Has Come" songwriter. As for more "ordinary" fans, anyone has a chance, as long as the song is good. Celine has thousands of songs to choose from each year, and as she only puts out about 1 English and 1 French album a year, has to narrow that down to about 40 songs (English and French). Difficult task, but in the end, it's great for us who love her music and her singing. Whatever song, she will bring it to the next level and give it a life it would otherwise not have. It'd be a treat if John's song is truly good and if it really gets on her next album. Quote
canadianpower Posted March 16, 2005 at 11:15 AM Posted March 16, 2005 at 11:15 AM Koolan, you were telling what I was thinking. Why not recording a whole album of fan-written songs? There a so many talented people around us. I would design the cover for the CD. Ok, I'm dreaming.
