lesfrancaise Posted February 24, 2008 at 09:50 AM Posted February 24, 2008 at 09:50 AM I just found out at this exact moment that her song UNISON is just her rendition of LAURA BRANIGAN'S song UNISON... Sorry if I'm not aware of this and if this is a repost please de;ete this thread. I saw it at VH1 site that Laura sang this song first then Celine Revived this song and made it as her title for her FIRST ENGLISH ALBUM.... link: http://www.vh1.com/artists/az/branigan_lau...750/lyric.jhtml Quote
lesfrancaise Posted February 24, 2008 at 10:10 AM Author Posted February 24, 2008 at 10:10 AM anyone who has a file of Laura's Version? Quote
Black Kitten Posted February 24, 2008 at 10:20 AM Posted February 24, 2008 at 10:20 AM Unison was first recorded by Junior in 1983. Laura covered this song before Celine did hers in 1990. So Celine is the second artist covered Unison. Quote
Der_Griffon Posted February 25, 2008 at 12:31 AM Posted February 25, 2008 at 12:31 AM That's bad! I love this song and now I feel kinda let down.

Lawna Posted February 25, 2008 at 02:18 AM Posted February 25, 2008 at 02:18 AM I didn't know this was a cover either...oh well As I was looking for information I found this...Awww...how sad... It was confirmed to OneStor earlier today from Joan Di Tursi Laura's previous manager that Laura had passed away in her sleep last night Thursday August 26th 2004 of a Brain aneurysm. http://www.laurabranigan.com/Lauras_Passing.htm Quote They go crazy for you because they know you're true. --Celine Dionhttp://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz226/Congenialdiva/myspacelink.jpgFollow Me on Twitter!Visit Me on Facebook!
grobandion Posted February 25, 2008 at 08:35 PM Posted February 25, 2008 at 08:35 PM Well, I didn't know UNISON was a cover. I don't like that song much, so I really don'r care about it.I knew laura died many years ago.Sad Quote
RojoLuvsCeline Posted February 25, 2008 at 08:38 PM Posted February 25, 2008 at 08:38 PM I prefer Celine's version. Quote http://azupload.com/displayImage.php/setid4626.png http://i27.tinypic.com/2dv7ss8.jpg

It was confirmed to OneStor earlier today from Joan Di Tursi Laura's previous manager that Laura had passed away in her sleep last night Thursday August 26th 2004 of a Brain aneurysm. http://www.laurabranigan.com/Lauras_Passing.htm I am a HUGE LB fan, she'll always have a special place in my heart. I've followed her career since 1982 and have met and seen her shows many many times. Celine is now #1 in my heart, but for me Celine had that kinda career I always wished LB had. Anyway, yeah they both released albums with the song Unison on it. Originally LBs album was to be titled Unison but that was changed - maybe because Celine had the same title? Who knows. LB was on Atlantic Records, who wasn't doing much for her - kinda like Sony now with Celine. Before LB passed away she recorded "Whatever It Takes" and in 1988 she recorded the song "Power Of Love" which got to #26 on the Hot 100. Laura's voice was VERY emotional, much more than Celine's but not as technically powerful as Celine's though. Early on in Celine's career she resembled LB a bit as well and LB loved Edith Piaf and also spoke French although she never recorded in French which I think was a mistake. Actually Laura's Official site is www.laurabraniganonline.com Quote ~J O E Y~

Well her first and second albums were titled Branigan and Branigan 2, so most of the fans thought it was odd that they called this one Laura Branigan. Both LBs and Celine's album with the song Unison on it were released in 1990. I think they should've called the album "Bad Attitude", that was the second song on the album and a real good one. Laura was managed by her husband at that time and even though he was a very nice man, he wasn't a good entertainment manager. So there were a lot of problems with her career because of that. She really needed someone like Rene, Celine is very lucky to have him because the combo of her talent and his skills has put her on top. Quote ~J O E Y~
CelineHayatiAna Posted March 1, 2008 at 02:09 AM Posted March 1, 2008 at 02:09 AM celine version is the best Quote
Celinenvegas Posted March 1, 2008 at 03:21 PM Posted March 1, 2008 at 03:21 PM celine version is the best Aww of course you're gonna say that, it's a Celine message board! Honestly, I prefer the production on Laura's better. I do love the Celine remix with the rap tho. Quote ~J O E Y~
