Have MJ, MC, MD, WH, BS, Beatles, Rolling Stones and other legends ever praised Celine in any way?

By ''BS'' I guess you mean Barbra Streisand? She praised Celine :

 

''You hear a lot of voices but I think yours is so special, you know, so beautiful, gorgeous instrument and with a great heart and sensitivity that it just makes me proud to sing with you.''

If you think that you would like to add something to my post, simply quote it and in the quote put red sentences.

"Celine Dion has been refered as Queen of Ballads, slow and power ballads, too. Her songs, together with Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey's, have shaped and reinvented adult contemporary genre, making it the most popular and succesful genre of 90's. 2000's and 2010's music is still being influenced by same artists. Celine has influenced many artists, even country and hip hop singers.

 

Dion has often received mixed reviews but she was always aplauded for her vocal capability. Many critics noted that her voice is capable of not only singing pop and ballads, she's also capable of singing rock, folk, dance and R&B genres great. Entertainment Weekly editor, in review for "One Heart" album, noted that when describing one song "Have You Ever Been in Love,'' the sense of gleeful release is particularly satisfying. (The track -- a sweeping, string-laden '70s-style ballad cowritten by Daryl Hall -- is a repeat from last year's ''A New Day Has Come.'') The song is the best example of the rock-solid foundation ''One Heart'' is built on: Dion's uncanny ability to infuse sincerity into aural Hallmark cards and sound like the only person on earth who believes in true love. And in our age of postmodern ironists, isn't it refreshing to encounter someone who so genuinely loves her job?" Celine has always been refered as the untouched singer which never in her 30 years long career never had scandals or feuds. David Foster, her long time collaborator, told that if you need advice on surviving showbiz, ask Celine. In 2013 she received Canadian honor award. (I need a source where critics, journalists and other artists which praises Celine as a singer, vocalist, performer, artist and personality). Celine herself stated many times that she is proud of the fact that she still haves her voice, but she doesn't care if she loses it because she can simply continue with normal life. She also told that music isn't her top priority anymore.

 

Dion has received a special award in 2008, because she introduced french music into the world. Once the award was announced, she was momentally applauded by the audience for six minutes. She's the only singer which received this kind of award in the history of music.

What is influence by Celine to music generally? We need web links urgently. Also her musical style section needs positivity, too. Some songs need reinvention

Same here. The text will be ready the following days. I think it will coincide with the single release!

[Neddo]

I'm thinking about that putting legacy section after the single release would be a good time

[GoldenLeaf]

Hmm... still nothing about the Legacy section and the single was released last week. Edited September 9, 2013 at 06:32 PM by GoldenLeaf

One quick note: Lara's album is Tout Les Femmes En Moi... not Carpe Diem

 

 

It's a nice read! And great a legacy section is finally there!

Faith Hill has praised Celine many, many times in the past. In the 90's, she did a cover of "I love you" during one of her tours. Faith started out as a purely country artist but increasingly crossed over more into the pop realm during her peak in the late 90's. She wasn't the only country artist to do this, but it's interesting that her vocal and musical stylings became more and more Celinish (more bombastic and pop, with more intricate production including a full orchestra) during the most successful point of her career (which happened around the time Celine had her first sabbatical). In fact, Faith's hit "There you'll be" from the movie Pearl Harbor was originally offered to Celine. I remember reading separate articles making the claim that record labels were trying to package both Lara Fabian and Faith Hill as replacements to fill the void Celine left during her sabbatical..I'd have to find them again since it's been years Edited September 9, 2013 at 08:55 PM by Your_Su_Phu

Amazing comeback song, just as good as ANDHC

[Your_Su_Phu]

Someone should do a grammar edit on that wiki page..

 

Has anyone mentioned Celine's influence (alongside Mariah and Whitney) when it comes to the huge explosion of TV talent competitions since the early 2000's (AI, X factor, The Voice and all of their international versions)? In every season of these shows, a few of the finalists list Celine as an influence.

One quote that notes that is from writer Carl Wilson (who wrote the infamous but acclaimed book "Let's talk about love: a journey to the end of taste" which uses Celine's music [and people's hatred of it] as a springboard into the discussion of taste). He says: "Her fame is also renewed regularly these days by American Idol, the largest mass musical phenomenon of the past decade, where Celine’s stood solidly in its pantheon of singers for young people to emulate."

Well, neither one of them made it after all. No one could replace Celine.

Ten years ago Celine received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

In this interview Anastacia says that Celine was her biggest musical influence :

Somebody should add Anastacia's name in Celine's legacy section on wikipedia :

[SuperLove4Celine]

I'm sure we can throw "Beauty And The Beast" in there somewhere, too.
