Songs for the show

[CelineLover4Life]

Titanic all the way!!!!!!

 

I couldn't agree more!!!!!!

[smw]

Since the overall theme of the show is Hollywood movies, I believe the intro should have that theme flowing through it.

 

 

1. The ORCHESTRA tunes their instruments and the lights rise. INTRO video beings (A highly stylized short film that shows clips from the films that she will sing songs from - interspersed with some footage of Celine --- all underscored by THE ORCHESTRA)

2. INTRO song: A piece begun by the orchestra, building with intensity, leading to the INTRO OF CELINE. It needs to be one of those iconic movie songs.

3. SPEECH. Celine greets the audience and talks to them about the concept of the show - how it's about hollywood films. "And I'd like to perform a few of my very favorites for you tonight."

4. Movie Song: Surprise Selection

5. Movie Song: I Will Always Love You

6. Movie Song: Summertime

7. CHANGE OF COSTUME/Orchestra Piece of Music with a Video Montage. Celine re-enters and gives a speech on her incredible career.

8. Where Does My Heart Beat Now

9. The Power of Love

10. It's All Coming Back To Me Now

11. I Drove All Night

12. CHANGE OF COSTUME/Orchestra Piece of Music with a Video Montage. Celine re-enters and gives a SPEECH on how she's been involved with some incredible songs for some incredible films. (All with the orchestra and video montages)

13. Because You Loved Me

14. I'm Alive (This is where I'd love to put Then You Look At Me - but this is a more realistic option)

15. SPEECH to introduce Barnev.

16. Beauty and The Beast/The Prayer (Both with Barnev or The Prayer could be via satellite with Andrea)

17. CHANGE OF COSTUME/Orchestra Piece of Music with a Video Montage. Celine re-enters and talks about her French career and her recent Taking Chances world tour.

18. Pour que tu m'aimes encore

19. Dans Un Autre Monde (short version)

20. S'il Suffisait D'aimer (with stunning visuals)

21. CHANGE OF COSTUME/Orchestra Piece of Music with a Video Montage. Celine re-enters and talks about her love of Vegas then she performs a Vegas tribute to Frank Sinatra.

22. All The Way (Celine solo version)

23. I Can't Help Falling In Love With You

24. FAKE GOODBYE. Lights go out as there is a Change of Costume. The Orchestra EXITS. Then the lights come back and THE STAGE CHANGES - as it does in the Cirque show Mystere. And Celine re-enters with no orchestra.

25. Proud Mary

26. River Deep, Mountain High

27. CHANGE OF COSTUME/The Orchestra re-enters and begins the music to My Heart Will Go On.

28. My Heart Will Go On (with stunning visuals)

29. Somewhere Over the Rainbow (Highlighting Hollywood's iconic films - ending with Celine in a spotlight as though it were implying that she is an icon)

30. GOODNIGHT!

Oh I'll be THRILLED if she sings "Then you look at me"! I loooove that song, and the movie

 

And I'd love her to sing "Moon River" from "Breakfast at Tiffany's"...

I completely second that. I would love to see her sing "Then You Look At Me" :wub: :wub:

 

 

I third TYLAM and also IWYTNM :wub:

There were songs and "interludes" that were rehearsed all the way up to Opening Night. Two songs include "A New Day Has Come (Radio Remix)" and "Love Is All We Need." I'm not sure why "Love Is All We Need" got axed, but from what I remember hearing "A New Day Has Come (Radio Remix)" got the axe because Franco felt the dancing, to put it nicely, didn't work.

 

There was also the "interlude" that included Céline interacting with a group of giraffes on the huge LED screen. The giraffes would kiss the screen, make heart shapes with their necks, and pop up from "underneath". Here is a photo of them:

As for her new show coming up next year, I remember reading somewhere on this message board that the songs "If You Asked Me To," "The Power Of Love," "Beauty And The Beast," and "That's The Way It Is" were being rehearsed. Keep in mind that was just a rumor so who knows if it's actually true.

[mirage]

If you asked me to

lol those giraffes, i remember them seeing on Oprah!! I think they had a lot of other 'plans' with AND first, if you look in the first showbook, the costumes, the backdrops etc!

 

LIAWN wonder how that would sound live, musically i think its a weird song. But at least its something new from her ;-)

[LcMason]

Hmmmm- I know I'd like-

 

 

Then You Look At Me

Somewhere (West Side Story)

[Davey84]

with album full of songs like Faith, In His Touch, Revealed and Naked, Céline chooses "Love Is All We Need"

 

I really would have heard a live version though!!

why on earth would she rehearse "The Power Of Love," :P

 

 

I think BATB was only rumoured cos she said it was still one of her fav songs... it was also rumoured for the TCWT! Unison was also rumoured, but that turned out to be only the rap part for during LCMM...

[Lawna]

Personally...I think this would be a great opportunity to reclaim her song "Dreams to Dream" She recorded it, but we never got to hear it because Mr. Spielberg decided to go back to the original singer.

 

So I would love to hear:

 

Dreams to Dream

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing

Beauty & the Beast

[Saheel Shah]

These are some songs that Celine has recorded that have been used in movies/stage productions. Perhaps not necessarily Hollywood movies, though:

• 
  
• "When I Fall In Love"
  
• "Because You Loved Me"
  
• "My Heart Will Go On"
  
• "Then You Look At Me"
  
• "The Prayer"
  
• "Ma Nouvelle" (sp?)
  
• "Bewitched, Bothered, And Bewildered"
  
• "Beauty And The Beast"
  
• "I Knew I Loved You"
  
• "I'm Alive"
  
• "Live (For The One I Love)"
  
• "Ziggy"
  
• "Tonight We Dance! (Extravagance!)"
  
• "To Love You More" (technically a Japanese soap opera theme - I think)
  

Those are the only ones I can think of.

 

Of course then there are the songs that were meant to be hers, but were passed to other artists:

• 
  
• "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"
  
• "There You'll Be"
  

And then there are the countless other Hollywood songs that she could do covers of. "Calling You" being one of them ("Baghdad Café").

 

- SL4C -

rumour has it celine was supposed to record there you'll be but turned it down

i guess cause it was during her hiatus

[Davey84]

no it was released before her hiatus, but I don't think she wanted to do ANOTHER movie song, after BYLM and MHWGO... I don't blame her! LOL

[mirage]

yeah!!! Dream to dream :wub:

[Guest Reuben]

Why not a Bollywood inspired medley? She is working with A R Rahman (Slumdog millionaire soundtrack) on her upcoming English album...hint hint. Or perhaps songs from musical films like Moulin Rouge, Dreamgirls, Chicago, Evita. I always thought a stage version of Moulin Rouge (either in Las Vegas, London, or New York) wouldve been a good idea

[SuperLove4Celine]

Okay, so I noticed on Twitter that the site, CelineDion.nl, is requesting fans to submit their top five Celine originals and top five film songs (non-Celine original) so they can submit the lists to Celine's team. Here is the link to their request: http://www.celinedion.nl/celine/index.php/...-jouw-songkeuze

 

Here is the list I submitted to them:

 

Céline Originals

1. “Then You Look At Me (Theme From ‘Bicentennial Man’)”

2. “Where Does My Heart Beat Now”

3. “That’s The Way It Is”

4. «Regarde-moi»

5. “Fade Away”

 

Film Songs

1. Gene Wilder: “Pure Imagination (From ‘Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory’)” (

)

2. Faith Hill: “There You’ll Be (Theme From ‘Pearl Harbor’)” (

)

3. Irene Cara: “Flashdance…What A Feeling (Theme From ‘Flashdance’)” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wgt2QB-1UQ)

4. Céline Dion (not originally her): “Calling You (From ‘Baghdad Café’)” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lVdDOiHiBo)

5. Helen Reddy: “Candle On The Water (Theme From Disney’s ‘Pete’s Dragon’)” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBZ2mV1GwuQ)

[DesertSkye]

I think having an orchestra is a brilliant idea. Something i've wanted for ages - and hopefully a show that will focus more on Celine's voice. Just cos she'll have an orchestra doesn't mean they'll be playing all instruments on all songs. Some songs (i would think) will be mainly Celine's band and perhaps adding a section or 2 of the orchestra. So some songs that wouldn't work with a full orchestra, can still work. Depends on which songs they choose. And i also hope they update MHWGO - bring the beauty of the song, film, and voice back again, and show people why that song was so successful.

 

Debbie,

 

Are you going to try to make it to Vegas?? I'm going to the premiere and probably again in June with my friends from Stockton-on-Tees.... Not sure who I'm taking to premiere tho but it is a year away so who knows..

[Leanne]

If Celine would do IF WE HOLD ON TOGETHER...... dream dream dream :D :o :wub:

Nice list!! Yes send your wishlists ;-)

I would love to hear Regarde-Moi live, but i'm afraid we only get 1 french songs, wich I think is stupid! I understand they cant put 5 whole french songs into the show, but PQTME full version, and a medley of some of her greatest french songs 3/4 songs would be sooo cool

 

And MHWGO oscar/world childrens day version orchestra, and a stunning celine

[maceta_biloxi]

I like the idea of Flashdance and Calling You!!!!

I had other songs picked originally for the "Celine Originals" section, but at the last moment I changed a few of my choices. Some of my runner-up choices that I considered were:

 

 

• 
  
• "Ain't Gonna Look The Other Way"
  
• "Refuse To Dance"
  
• "Miles To Go (Before I Sleep)"
  
• "Prayer" (A New Day Has Come song, not the Andrea Bocelli duet)
  
• «Je ne vous oublie pas»
  
• "If We Could Start Over"
  
• "Unison"
  
• "I Love You"
  
• «Contre nature»
  

 

As for the film songs, I had considered "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing (Theme From 'Armageddon')," but opted to skip it simply because I'm finding myself becoming tired of hearing that song.

 

[mirage]

Prayer

Contre Nature live... if only!! I think it's stupid that even the french singles were ignored on her TC tour, so i dont think they would use them in a Vegas show

[Timster]

Prayer

I'd love to hear Prayer live! It sounds amazing in a slightly lower key (which is what they'd probably do if she did sing it live)

[ferjaacu]

lol. I would love to hear her singing Then You Look At Me live !! It's one of my favourites of all times. Then, a small list of the songs that I think she could sing and that I want her to sing:

 

Then You Look At Me.

I Will Always Love You.

Run To You.

It Must Have Been Love.

Don't Want To Miss A Thing.

Over The Raimbow.

Woman In Love.

Hes Eyes Is On The Sparrow.

I Believe I Can Fly.

I Believe In You And Me.

Arms Of An Angel.

I Have Nothing.

Love Is On The Way.

 

This are just some of the movie's songs that I'd love her to do her own versions of. Also, I wanna hear a live version of Us. I just love that song. But, anyway, I'd love whatever thing she do.

[davidjag79]

I want Celine to preform:

 

The Reason

Just Walk Away

Calling You

I Got The Music In Me

The Show Must Go On

I Can't Help Falling In Love With You

It's A Man's World

Then You Look At Me

I Knew I Loved You

Think Twice

All By Myself

Eyes On Me

Your Song

That's The Way It Is

Skies Of LA

Alone

On Ne Change Pas with orchestra...

When I Need You

[mirage]

Nature Boy "Orchestra Version" who knows, maybe she will sing it that way this time
