[Davey84]

not songs... THE TALKING!! and the little item céline did in Charlemagne!! that was so awesome! I don't understand why they cut that out! with Sony it's always about the 'voice', never about the 'emotion'

[SuperLove4Celine]

Done right...the D'eux 15th Anniversary release!

[celinesounds]

Done right...the D'eux 15th Anniversary release!

 

 

I have to say the best thing on this edition are the demos, the DVD sucks

 

Celine has the worst look ever on a DVD

 

 

I'd prefer a Special Edidion from UNISON and Celine Dion album with the clips and live performances

WRONG

 

1) The A new day...live cd. In that cd her voice is not good! She was singing there for 5 years. For sure there were better nights! We have by far better bootlegs (recorded by fans)

 

2) The My love album! BIG BIG BIG mistake! She had to promote ONLY the Taking Chances cd during the tour. To have better sales and not to promote a greatest hits album. She should release that album now that she is in break. I saw the sales and the charts, when she started the tour My love has every week better sales, but Taking chances was out of the charts! and remember the tour was TAKING CHANCES tour!

 

3) The Lyp singing thing! Everyone, fan or not, blame her about that. The power of love, To love you more, My heart will go on etc are ALWAYS the same the last years! So we will have 2 cds (A new day, Taking chances tour) and 2 dvd's (A new day, Taking chances tour) with the SAME versions. And in my opinion, ok lets accept the fact that they use prerecorded tracks, they use really BAD prerecorded tracks! Her voice could be better for sure

 

4) The voice shape and the sound of A new day dvd. I have never heard such bad sound on a dvd! I cant even hear the concert! They did her voice so flat, no connection with music, no live atmosphere, her voice is so "front" without good echos and OMG, ANYONE can understand the parts that they "fix" her voice! ANACCEPTABLE!!!! On the backstage videos during the concert her voice sounds better being natural. Her voice is not on good shape (or it sounds like that because of the sound as i said before) She was singing there for 5 years, i CAN'T accept that that was the best!

 

5) The big mistake of the A new day dvd: No many angles! I remember all the fans saying that to see the show you have to go more than onece. The first one to see and listen Celine, the second one to see the dancers and the effects and one more to see the whole show as combination. They HAVE to do a dvd with many angles (is that the right word?) I mean many scenes at the same time and the viwer to choose. i hope you got my thought!

 

6) They had to promote Eyes on me! They could do a shorter radio edit version and promote it! Im sure it could be a great hit!

 

RIGHT

 

I think you have mention all the right things and i agree with all! I could add just that:

 

1) i love that fact that she is still doing really artistic french albums

 

2) That she takes care of the voice

 

3) I liked the experiment in Taking chances (even if is not my favorite album)

 

4) She always keeps a good quality in everything! I mean her lyrics, the arrangement, the songs selection.

 

5) I love that fact that she choose songs in the album without thinking if they gonna be hits. In my opinion all those songs are the diamonds in every album

Okay, firstly I disagree with this. The ending note on TPOL is 10x better than that of the CD version. TLYM is also better then the studio. The ending oh's are JUST her, unlike the CD where it's a choir to. Not to mention the whatever it takes, we'll find a way note is ORGASMIC....where as on the CD it's just so plain.... MHWGO is better than any of the live performances (with the exception of ACDS DVD). Sorry, that includes WCD. At the very least it is better than all EXCEPT WCD and ACDS.... Of course there are dozens of other playback tracks I could talk about, but I don't have the time. So I'll leave this by saying that these re-recorded tracks are re-recorded for a reason. To sound live. They all do that by (in many cases) being less than the CD. Look at I Surrender for instance. Other than the first and last verse, it's lipped. For a live performance, it is AMAZING. But it's not live.... but it is very convincing.

 

Umm, what concerts have you watched? Try watching any rock concert, or for that matter, a Mariah concert - anything where the crowd is not dead and actually into the music and jumping up and down screaming. The sound on AND is alot better than the Mimi DVD, Queen DVD, Aerosmith DVD, and others I watch.

 

As for not many angles, I disagree again. The camera work is very good. Watch other concerts and you'll see the cameras shaking and switching angles rapidly to the point that you leave with a headache. Additionally, on all the lipped songs there are FEW close face shots. At the time of filming, half the concert was lipped.

I'm talking about Celine's DVD'S!!

 

And, ok, if you want to pay for, you are enjoing and you prefer prerecorded tracks, playbacks and always the same than lives...so, no comment!

[salsacolin]

For me

 

WRONG

Singles from ANDHC - I'm Alive was released way too late to take over and keep momentum from ANDHC. ANDHC didnt get the airplay on pop stations it needed. I would have also released it commercially to boost the hot 100. I'm alive should have followed shortly afterwards then followed by Sorry For Love and maybe finishing with The Greatest Reward.

 

One Heart - IDAN - terrible choice of single as it was largely ignored due to it being covered successfully before and the production for me was too poppy for celine. In many cases I think the OH album had some fabulous songs but songs like One Heart while an ok f album track is not something worthy of the greatest singer in the world. One heart was also dated before its time. If the album had not been put together in a rush for Chrysler and a couple of stellar tracks with a brand new Celine Dion (non cover) lead single to start off Vegas - it would have been almost as big as ANDHC.

 

Taking Chances. This is Celine Dion. 200million selling female vocalist and she gets one music video. Come On. Again poor singles promotion. Alone should have been out quicker. This Time, Suprise Surprise, IGNL would all have eclipsed the Eyes On Me which really doesnt gain ground on the radio and the production sounds cheap its not like Shakira at all. If Shakira had produced it...maybe.

 

Live shows - poor for the French fans Je Ne Vous Oublie pas, TLDH, Sous Le Vent were number 1 hits how can number ones be left off any set list. Sous Le vent with Garou on screen rather than The Prayer. A Cause...etc the tour on France should have been more about D'elles than old stuff everyone has heard millions of times.

 

Oh and the lipping - fine no problems with it as its always been there. However on the night the DVD is filmed why cant it all be done live. Its only 1 show for heavens sake and she did it in Quebec 400. The fact that the opening track is lipped it atrocious.

 

Last but not least - don't be afraid of releasing ballads. There is absolutely no reason why Celine Dion should not have another amazing ballad. There have been loads of ballads topping the chart since Celine stopped releasing them to try and be more "current" The public would LOVE to see Celine back doing what she is best at. She has already proved she can sing anything but she should start thinking about wowing people with her voice again. Eyes on me just doesn't.

 

The X Factor / Miley Cyrus song The Climb for example - Celine would make that a worldwide hit in a week.

 

RIGHT

 

Most of the choices made up to and including the first single off ANDHC.

 

The Touring after Vegas - very unexpected and really raised her profile considerably. This will hopefully raise expectations and buzz around any new album released next year as she is still current and remembered for more than just MHWGO.

 

Vegas - worked so well gave her the balance she needed in life and a major attraction for people to go an see and with it being for so long allowed anyone to save up and go. And even at $80 the cheapest seats still were closer than most of seats in any arena.

 

The quality and direction (also variation) of the French albums.

 

Miracle - while not overly popular was actually very successful and vocally stunning. This is an example of something in English that had clear direction.

 

Interviews on POP radio in the US during TC promotion - she should do this more often and do some acoustic itunes sets, radio 1 live lounge etc (Imagine Celine singing a beautiful acoustic rendition of Coldplays Viva la Vida or Green Day Boulevard of Broken Dreams)

[Claudette]

One Heart - IDAN - terrible choice of single as it was largely ignored due to it being covered successfully before and the production for me was too poppy for celine. In many cases I think the OH album had some fabulous songs but songs like One Heart while an ok f album track is not something worthy of the greatest singer in the world. One heart was also dated before its time. If the album had not been put together in a rush for Chrysler and a couple of stellar tracks with a brand new Celine Dion (non cover) lead single to start off Vegas - it would have been almost as big as ANDHC.

 

''I Drove All Night'' is one of Celine's most popular songs in SA for some reason. We actually have this countdown of the top 100 party tunes from the last decade on one of our radio stations and ''I Drove All Night'' is on the list. Will have to wait till the 31st to see what position it lands at though. I think people love that song just because her vocals are pretty awesome, not because of the ''song''...

 

Live shows - poor for the French fans Je Ne Vous Oublie pas, TLDH, Sous Le Vent were number 1 hits how can number ones be left off any set list. Sous Le vent with Garou on screen rather than The Prayer. A Cause...etc the tour on France should have been more about D'elles than old stuff everyone has heard millions of times.

Agree with you there.

I also don't mind the lipping. I mean it is understandable, she can't sing 23-25 songs live every night. But there are some lipped songs that should always be 100% live, like ''My Heart Will Go On''. I mean it is her frigging signature song. Totally unacceptable and it annoys the crap out of me. I also agree that for the DVD everything should be live.

 

Last but not least - don't be afraid of releasing ballads. There is absolutely no reason why Celine Dion should not have another amazing ballad. There have been loads of ballads topping the chart since Celine stopped releasing them to try and be more "current" The public would LOVE to see Celine back doing what she is best at. She has already proved she can sing anything but she should start thinking about wowing people with her voice again. Eyes on me just doesn't.

 

I really hope that she does include some amazing ballads on her next album. That is what people want to hear from Celine (although some people don't agree).

 

Interviews on POP radio in the US during TC promotion - she should do this more often and do some acoustic itunes sets, radio 1 live lounge etc (Imagine Celine singing a beautiful acoustic rendition of Coldplays Viva la Vida or Green Day Boulevard of Broken Dreams)

 

I've been dreaming about Celine doing something acoustic since forever... It would be so amazing!!!

TC chances was done wrong with the single selections i believe it could have BEEN HUGE

[Shaun]

Miracle - while not overly popular was actually very successful and vocally stunning. This is an example of something in English that had clear direction.

 

I completely disagree to be honest. I think "Miracle" is one of Celine's poorest albums vocally. Her voice sounds strained and nasal throughout and it also sounds like she's struggling for breath at times also. Her pronunciation isn't at it's best on this album either.

 

Not trying to be overly harsh, it's just what I hear when I listen to "Miracle."

 

However, I do agree that as a concept album it was refreshing to see Celine choose a theme and apply it to the whole album.

Well she sounded a lot better on Miracle than on A New Day Live in Las Vegas. They should have cancelled that CD along with the blonde DVD!

I am surprised. I have to say I hear nasal on Taking Chances, One Heart ANDLILV and even on D'elles more than Miracle.

 

I dont listen to Miracle often but I had it on the other day and I think vocally its awesome but nowhere near TAST.
