Celine to pay tribute to Whitney Houston (via video)

First of all, thank you Vic for uploading this in the multimedia section! :clap: Second, I also had a Celine-looks-like-a-mermaid moment. :lol: But she looked great.

 

As for the performance, I loved her short acapella of ''Saving All My Love For You'' I was kind of wishing she finished that song instead of singing ''Greatest Love of All''. I'm making it my new ringtone. :in_love:

I really enjoyed the show. Celine was great and her accapella intro of SAMLFY was great, I think that song is very personal to Celine. I think GLOA was a good song choice and it was so nice to read the nice things the Whitney fans said about Celine. I loved Cece Winans & Yolanda Adams singing "Count On Me". Whitney and Cece did such a great live performance of that song on the Grammys.

 

Thanks Vic for uploading the video & audio - YAY!!!!!

 

PS - still getting used to the "new" look of the Forum - good job!

I kinda want her to put a studio version of "The Greatest Love Of All" on Water and A Flame. Don't stone me! I know people don't want covers! I don't really either, but that song is one of the greatest songs of all time IMO, and the greatest voice of all time doing a genuine studio version....is a paradise. If not.....at least a sell alone single on itunes.

 

Even though people say this song is lipped (and I literally care 0%)....it was still more of a "live lipped recording" in the sense that if this indeed was a recording....it was still made to sound live. A STUDIO studio recording of this song would be a dream come true.

I cannot even believe how BEAUTIFUL she looks.

I was watching this video and my dad (who is NOT a fan) walked by my computer, stopped and said "WHO IS THAT?" I was like "Celine Dion", he goes "No way is that her, that woman is gorgeous!" He could not believe it! He was like "Wow age is doing something very impressive to her, shes totally sexy" :)

I'd much rather see a cover of GLOA on the album than any of the awkward Vegas covers....

Although still a cover I couldn't agree with you more!

Let me tell you that it's one of the reasons I liked this performance. I mean, being her fan for soooo many years, I always love when she surprises me in tones, keys...

 

And fair enough! :) It's good that everyone can find something they like in this performance. I think that I started to be a fan the year who were born though! :)

I like surprises too, especially when she sings other people's songs but I prefer her 'real' tone, higher pitch, softness, power and clarity. Being older plays a role of course but I think her voice is still amazing, especially with the recent live performances in Quebec. But I'm not sure why she's accentuating certain words like a forced american accent. It just sounds unatural and unusual to me. Still I love the performance and the acapella intro and have listened to it quite a few times already!! Can't wait for more live surprises!!!

Sorry but I don't agree with including a studio version of "The Greatest Love of All" on a future album. We do not need every single song Celine ever performs on TV to be included on an album. This takes away the one off special nature of these performances. It should be left as a one off live tribute, the way it was intended to be.

Well you know that At Seventeen was also supposed to be a one off... :giggle:

Exactly my point but let's not turn this into a "why is half the Vegas show included on the next studio album" topic. :thumbsup2:

Well of COURSE we don't need every song she's sung live to have a studio version. I'm just referring to THIS specific song. It's always been a song I've loved a lot ever since I heard it back in like....maybe 1990. I have a select few songs that I REALLY want to hear Celine record....and this happens to be one of them. In the future, if there's a covers album ever....I would LURVE to have this be one of the songs.

Yes, it is available on Amazon.com with today as its release date. :xmas:

So far it's available only for Region 1, I wonder if they will also make it available in the rest of the world. I browsed other international sellers and eBay, and it's not there.

We can also buy the DVD on Whitney's official website, I wonder if they'll send one region or another depending of the country selected...

I really don't know. Maybe you can contact them and ask, if you are interested. Or, if you have a multizone DVD player, then you should have no problem. :xmas:
