Songs for the show

June 23, 2011 at 07:03 AM

I agree, it would be nice to pull out a few recent songs as well as a few of the lesser-known, but still amazing songs from her 90s albums..

A few songs from each album that would sound really good w/ the orchestra IMO..

Unison:
If There Was Any Other Way
The Last To Know

Celine Dion:
Halfway to Heaven
Water From The Moon
If You Asked Me To

Colour of My Love:
*This album has some songs that seem to be made for the orchestra
Misled
Think Twice
Only One Road
Next Plane Out (Imagine the waterfall at the beginning with Celine standing at the top of her ramp, making her way down to the center of the waterfall for the chorus)
No Living Without Loving You
Colour of My Love

Falling Into You:
Falling Into You
Make You Happy
Seduces Me
Fly
Call The Man

Let's Talk About Love:
Immortality (maybe w/ hologram of Bee Gees)
Love Is On The Way
Tell Him
To Love You More
Let's Talk About Love (could replace At Seventeen as an acoustic song)

All The Way:
Then You Look At Me
That's The Way It Is
All The way (w/ hologram Frank Sinatra)

A New Day Has Come:
I'm Alive
Right In Front of You
Goodbye's The Saddest Word
A New Day Has Come (slow)
The Greatest Reward

One Heart:
I Drove All Night
Faith
In His Touch
Stand By Your Side

Taking Chances:
Taking Chances (Maybe a more orchestrated version)
Alone
Eyes On Me
My Love (Basically the first 4 on the album)
A World To Believe In

Others:
Power of The Dream
Dance With My Father
I Knew I Loved You

French Songs:
S'il Suffisait D'aimer
On Ne Change Pas
Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore (this I was surprise was not included in the show)
Destin

I agree so much, Fly would be amazing with the orchestra. But she might not be able to sing it and be able to get through it now a days. Let's Talk About Love is another fave that I would love, and A World To Believe In also that could replace Lullaby and she could still include the pics of R.C. and the twins. That's if it's still played during that song.

in Montreal at her farewell concert in 1999 I believe? she sang Live for the one I love, perfect for the orchestra! And I think the Stevie Wonder song has to go.. don't like it.. At Seventeen is not bad but only sad. With a orchestra like this you have to push everything out of it! River Deep has to take space for The Best or what about To Love u more in a complete full orchestral arrangement? for me the Bond medley is a good one and works very well with the orchestra. As for the French songs.. if she sings this song every evening again there is nothing special on it anymore. you cannot tell me she is gonna cry each time she sings it... Enough great French songs in your repertoire Celine! Bluess du Businessman, also sung at the Farewell Concert in duet.. that was amazing.. and with a orchestra accompanying it? enough choices to make! and although it is not my favorite, but at last could very well fit with it too..

replace Stevie with Elvis and do the Hologram Duet.. a definate showstopper!

Or ask Madonna for permission to sing You'll see.. imagine that with the orchestra...

June 23, 2011 at 04:25 PM

I know it's country, but when I hear this song, I think of how good it would sound with the orchestra and Celine's voices...

Is that really country?? :confused:

But yeah I love that song that too!! :yes:

I'd like to see some major setlist changes. This show already has me bored. Don't get me wrong, it was amazing to be there, and I'd go again, but it doesn't mean it can't be so much better.

Overjoyed - replace with Immortality or Tell Him (preferrably Immortality)

At Seventeen - I liked the idea of replacing this with Let's Talk About Love

Lullaby - replace with an uptempo (TC, ANDHC, or TTWII)

Sing DOL and use LCMM as the interlude.

Despite having my three setlist wishes answered (the dropping of TLYM/IDAN/IA)....I still feel like there is more work to be done in this show. I was not anticipating so many covers.

I have to say I do like a lot of the covers, but some of them just fall so flat.... I like Open Arms, I like Paganini, I like Goldfinger, I like the MJ medley.... I like Ne Me Quitte Pas...

But I'd still like to see her do 2 of her own French songs. I'd like her to sing 2-3 up-tempos. Most of all, I just want more of her own songs!!! To me it's an embarrassment that an artist of such stature and success has to resort to songs of another artists catalogue.... Don't get me wrong, 2 covers out of a set of 20 songs is not bad, but anymore is just pathetic.

When she does her next tour, I seriously hope she considers returning back to the same type of touring she did in the 90's....where she would sing 2 covers max.....and then sing her own songs.......she has an impressive catalogue of songs that have never been sung live, and songs that have not been performed in many years...

Agreed :clap:

Although I did like the Queen medley, no one gives Freddy recognition anymore. But IDAN is a favorite of mine I can't help it, I loved it and wish she would sing it. But take it out of the opening video, it makes no sense.

June 23, 2011 at 10:32 PM

I've been showing clips of the show to my friends (people who are not exactly huge Celine fans) and even they agree that she should be singing her own material.

I LOVE that Celine is singing songs that she's passionate about. But I there needs to be more focus on her own songs. It's really a shame how neglected her French albums have been.

Again I agree, I love her singing in French even though half the words I don't understand. (I am taking French for my foreign language next year :-D lol) But it's like Duex is her only album and it's not. The French T.C. shows didn't have any songs from D'eeles except Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là, I think Renee and her should start looking at a new team. Because she has enough songs to become hits they just aren't getting promoted in the correct way. If we do get a new English album this year I pray it get's the attention it deserves.

June 24, 2011 at 05:04 AM

My first show will be next year and I looked at the setlist and I was like "Where are her songs???" I want to see her perform her own songs live in person. I hope by then she will have changed some things. I want to see some of her hit songs as well as some that I like personally that were not singles.

I want to see:

It's All Coming Back to Me

Because You Loved me

All by myself

My Heart will go on

I'm Alive

I Drove all night

Pour que tu m'aimes encore

A new day has come

That's the way it is

I love you

To love you more

Rien n'est vraiment fini

My love

Shadow of love

Just to name a few :clap:

Well, to be fair (and if one were to get technical) the songs "It's All Coming Back To Me Now," "I Drove All Night," "All By Myself" and "Rien n'est vraiment fini" are all covers. :msn-wink:

June 26, 2011 at 11:33 PM

My biggest complain is her French song, why she has to cover in French in an English concert while she has so many of her own French songs

The other cover that I enjoy are Open Arms, Bond and Jackson medley

Songs that should be replaced: Overjoyed, At Seventeen, Lullaby, RDMH and Love Can Move Moutains

I’m glad they brought back Where does my heart beat now

June 27, 2011 at 02:12 AM

I would say get rid of Lullaby, Mr P?, At Seventeen and add ANDHC RR, TTWII, and IA

I could def do without "Overjoyed" and a different french song. Not sure which though. I didn't like "Lullaby" on Oprah, thought it was a little boring but I did enjoy it a lot at the show. The orchestra and the video bring the song to life.

June 27, 2011 at 04:21 PM

I agree about Lullaby not about the 2 other songs. I'm simply in love with Mr. Paganini and At Seventeen. Plus these songs fit Celine so well.

However Overjoyed and Ne Me Quitte Pas really need to be replaced.

Amen! I am fully with you! But I don't think they'll do any change, maybe only add 1/2 songs from new albums but nothing from the past!

Lullaby is boring and I don't like it but it COULD stay since it's a tribute to her family and sons and probably with the photos it's better

but Mr P, At Seventeen or Overjoyed are so unnecessary and so out of the blue.

Lately, I've been listening to ONCP and I think that CNQR would be amazing with orchestra if we are speaking about French choices :wub:

June 27, 2011 at 05:19 PM

I disagree completely with any complaints about 'Ne Me Quitte Pas' - it's an amazing performance. If anything should change in regards to a French song it would be to add one of her songs. There's nothing wrong with covers ... it's Vegas, not a tour promoting her album.

June 27, 2011 at 05:50 PM

I never liked the song "The Reason", actually... i mean, i REALLY hate that song... and i am not looking forward to hearing it in vegas at all. I would definitely remove "The Reason", "Mr. Paganini", "all by myself", and "Love can move mountains".

June 27, 2011 at 07:13 PM

I'd actually love to have more French songs in the show, I say keep Ne me quitte pas and add a few of her own French goodies! :wink:

June 28, 2011 at 12:02 AM

- Replace "Overjoyed" with the full version of "Beauty And The Beast" with Peabo Bryson as the hologram. (Barnev already has his solo routine.) If Peabo Bryson is not able to record a holographic version of himself for unknown reasons, then keep "Beauty And The Beast" as it's currently performed and replace "Overjoyed" with another duet in Céline's career ("I'm Your Angel," "Tell Him," "The Prayer," etc.).

- Remove "Nobody Does It Better" and have the Bond medley only include "Goldfinger" and "Live And Let Die."

- Replace "Lullaby" with "In Some Small Way," "Come To Me" or "Prayer" (from A New Day Has Come).

- Replace "At Seventeen" with either "Have You Ever Been In Love" or "The Last To Know."

- Replace "River Deep, Mountain High" with "Just A Little Bit Of Love" and swap the positioning of the song to come before "Love Can Move Mountains."

- Switch "Love Can Move Mountains" to the end of the show before the (fake) "surprise" encore.

June 28, 2011 at 04:08 AM

definitely agree that At Seventeen should be replaced with a Celine song.. "Have you ever been in love" or "my love" or "taking chance" would be nice to hear. I think the bond modley is good and should stay. Definitley dont like the Stevie Wonder Duet.. it's cool to see and all but they could do a hologram with someone else Celine has dueted with..

June 28, 2011 at 05:46 AM

I just had a thought for something that maybe could one day replace the virtual duet..

Could you imagine a virtual hologram of teenage Celine singing Ce N'etait Qu'un Reve and then normal Celine shows up? That would be pretty cool IMO..

June 28, 2011 at 05:53 AM

I would love for Celine to sing CNQR again. Like the Millennium concert. I'm not talking about the half-assed versions from the LTAL tour, or the Star Academy show....

I also don't feel Ne Me Quitte Pas should be removed. I agree that there needs to be another French song, but this needs to stay. Her first Vegas run had "If I Could" , the tour had "My Love"....and this is the equivalent of those. It's the part of the show where she slows down, and gets the most emotional.

Despite loving most of the covers, if I could remove every single one of them and get them replaced with her own songs, I would. I think some of them make the show extremely dull. At Seventeen is a great song, but it's a song that was only meant to be performed once. You know how some songs aren't meant to be performed at all (because it is boring or just can't come anywhere close to a studio version), well this is similiar. Like Smile/I Finally Found Someone/A Song For You, etc...it's a song that I enjoyed seeing live once, but anymore is unnecessary.

Just to name a few

So basically, you want the TCWT setlist back? :doh:

The only changes I'd make:

Lullaby - My Precious One :in_love:

Overjoyed - Yeah could be replaced by Tell Him, but Céline does love to sing Overjoyed! lol (NOT IYA or TP!! :nono: )

All By Myself - replace it by Alone or an other after 2001 song (The Greatest Reward, I Know What Love Is, A World To Believe In)

Add If You Asked Me To to the James Bond Medley (The part:

Somehow ever since I've been around you

Can't go back to being on my own

Can't help feeling darling since I've found you

That I've found my home

That I'm finally home

I said I'd never let nobody get too close to me darling

I said I needed, needed to be free

(But if you asked me to)

Asked me to, I will give my world to you baby

I need you now

Ask me to and I'll do anything for you baby, for you baby )

And yeah I agree with Tyler, it would be amazing if Céline sang the full version of CNQR!!! And with the orchestra, it would sound amazing! :in_love:

There may be more to it than making a song change, there's the orchestra to consider along with other technical things.

I like that idea of replacing "Lullaby" with "In Some Small Way" - I love that song!! It was great in AND.

I wouldn't take out "River Deep Mountain High", it's my fav and always gets a good reaction. It's high energy and Celine comes off looking very good from the performance.

I would prefer more of Celine's own songs as well but I think they're trying to appeal to a wider audience, not just fans of Celine. They need to fill 4400 seats every show.

June 28, 2011 at 07:19 PM

I definitely agree and would not miss At Seventeen if it was taken out. It's just not really doing anything with the show. There are plenty of other options there to fill time after the hologram pieces.

June 28, 2011 at 08:06 PM

RDMH was great in 2007. But now it's becoming more and more like LCMM. Each and every performance gets more and more sloppy. There is talking in it that doesn't need to be there. Notes are adlibbed, shortened, dodged...it's just not what it used to be. I can't stand how every time she says "if i lost you, would i cry" she said "cr-yeah" instead of "cryyyyyy" ....it drives me nuts. The only thing about this song that has improved over the 90's is the F5, and then the bands arrangement.

June 28, 2011 at 08:55 PM

I agree i think the whole closing of the show needs to be revamped.... like this..Interlude:LCMM, then she sing Decaration of Love, and then a full number of "A New Day Has Come (radio remix)", thankyou goodnight: ....MHWGO.... also i think they need to drop the damn lullaby and add maybe another french song l(a up-beat one)... get rid of stevies duet and add a virtue duet with MJ on "I just cant stop loving you" and replace "At Seveenteen" with Thats the way it is. Then bang you got a new show with more energy!

I agree, RDMH was at its best ever in 2006/2007 during AND. Although I understand why they kept this fun "Vegas showgirl" song for the TCWT, as it was such a highlight in Vegas, the performances just weren't as good. Nothing has improved in this new show in terms of the way Celine sings it, it's lost the magic it had in the AND DVD... :down:

June 28, 2011 at 09:00 PM

RDMH was great during the AND show because it was something fun and new they added! I really don't think it's necessary to keep the ending the same for three tours. :confused:

Edited June 28, 2011 at 09:01 PM by riobeard11

June 28, 2011 at 09:35 PM

For people curious of the change of RDMH, listen to this bootleg and compare to the tour and the new vegas show! Its 100% live in "A New Day" and tons better than what it was on tour and in this new show, which i don't understand her voice is in better shape now than most of the vegas show "AND" and tour?

i think Lullaby is a good fit for the show.. If anyone who is complaing has actually seen the show you'd agree. The family videos they show are great and really show the personal side of Celine with her family.
