SURVIVOR: Céline Dion


Recommended Posts

Posted

Haha, I didn't even know that IACBTMN was one of Luis' favorites!

 

But IACBTMN . now that is complete perfection. Utter, over-the-top melodrama that is supposed to be over-the-top melodramatic, and so it works perfectly! And Celine makes it infused with such passion and emotion -- and with a voice that is absolute crystal-clear beauty . . .not to mention the most amazing viedo in that castle, with that dress . . . I adore every single second of the 7-plus minutes, from that first dramatic chord to the last whispered "and if we . . . " and every "baby, baby" in between.

 

Ditto!

These are two of her best songs, which would normally make this a difficult decision for me. However, one of these songs is not only my favorite Celine song, but my favorite song of all time. It's actually the song that introduced me to her. Now I have almost 40 of her albums. With that said, I vote to save It's All Coming Back To Me Now.

(it's a great song, but it's sad that it had to be a cover the winner of the contest and not only original songs :down:)

I want to save 'Call The Man'. It's a more authentic interpretation and I find the lyrics to be more poetic and introspective. Also, the music is more soulful, less bombastic. Edited by LukeD

If it's sad, then support the original song.:P They were neck by neck last week..! I also like IACBTMN, by the way, it is such an epic recording!

I agree with Jav...

But apart from PQTME this was the song that made me a fan. It let me notice her voice, the power, that epic long song made me crave for more!! And IMO this cover is a zillion times inferiour to the Original...

Oh man......this is tough. :( I love both songs so much. Call the Man is original and I love the beat, etc. It's such a beautiful song and, as someone mentioned earlier, not quite so bombastic. She does display some power in her voice as well.

 

However, IACBTMN, even in the shorter version she performs is so much more Celine for some reason. This song, even if it's a cover, just has so much power to it and is pretty iconic. Even people who aren't huge fans know this song and relate to this song. It's one of the few song's (outside of MHWGO) that so many people associate her with. (This is not why I'm voting for it, though) She sings it with such passion, both on the album version and live. It's one of the few she always seem to really just infuse herself into. I love the back and forth power to soft to power melo-drama of the song, even if the album version is 7 minutes. I love the breathy ending...."and if we....." It really just speaks to the power of human emotions and relationships and she translates with her voice quite beautifully.

 

So....my vote is to save It's All Coming Back to Me Now! :)

I am going to miss this game when it's all said and done. I think I may be having survivor with-drawls already. :unsure: Maybe there's another version we can play with songs from LMBTL. Or perhaps which piece of real-estate is most Celine.....apparently there's quite a list to choose from there. :giggle: Or we could make it fashion related and vote for our fave Celine outfit of all time. There's tons of material there! B) (literally and figuratively....haha)

Yes, it's been a nice game. Thank you Carlitos for your dedication. Even though I wasn't that active when the game started and I started playing it at later stages, I loved it. And lots of my favorites were eliminated a few weeks back, but I didn't even think of quitting the game. It's all about the fun, and two great songs remained. May the best one or the best for the most of us win! :)

I vote to save "It's all coming back to me now". I love call the man too, but cannot understand how it got voted to be one of the top 2 songs of celine. And I have read on this thread that IACBTMN is not an original song. I know it was covered by Meat Loaf, but who recorded it originally?

I vote for Call The Man

 

I never thought I would vote for that song in the final round. Don't get me wrong, I love it but it's surprising... because it's not my favorite song either. ;)

Posted

It's All Coming Back to Me Now!! For all the reasons I said yesterday!

 

So interesting that the 2 finalists are two Jim Steinman productions, when he's done so few songs with Celine.

 

I, too, have loved this game - thanks so much to Carlitos for putting this together and counting all the votes each week! But I hope the game isn't over! Are we going to do the Sony French songs as well? We had only done the pre-Sony ones previously.

And the two finalists are from the same album too. I guess that makes FIY the fan favorite.

This has to be the hardest choice!

IACBTMN was the first Celine song that really got me, it still moves me so much whenever I listen to it. It is huge, Celine herself has said that she's never recorded a bigger song. It wasn't initially meant for her but it's still so Celine!

On the other hand, 'Call The Man', another great favourite of mine... For me, it has always been the 'different' Celine ballad, I guess it has something to do with the lyrics. I've always felt something very special about it, some slightly slower and 'darker' mood (I don't actually know how to describe it), it's not that bombastic but it is just so beautiful!

So... I know I have to choose only 1 song to save and it is...IACBTMN (although, to be honest, I'm doing it with kind of mixed feelings...).

Now I've voted, I'm looking forward to stage 3 of this game.
