Lindah1984 Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:06 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:06 AM I enjoyed it very much!! Questions: Who is behind the drums? Who's playing the bass guitar? I actually liked the hair questions, clears the air. Now I am gonna wait 36 years to watch here on TV. It sounds always better on TV. Quote
CelinesDIVO5 Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:15 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:15 AM *like* Also, sorry to go off topic I just listened to your demo and I loved it. You sound great. I remember hearing your singing clips back in the day (2002-2003) and you always used to sing in a constant falsetto, and I'll be honest, I didn't like it at all. But you've grown so much. You've got a lovely tone and expressive voice. Beautiful song too Thank you so much!!

donpi86 Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:21 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 07:21 AM I watched this live at 4pm and I wasn't at home so I was unable to post and now there are just too many pages for me to read *everything*. So, I apologize if what I'm saying has been said. My take on the performance (and Kimmel, and the song in general) is this: She needs to start lip-synching liiiii-iiiii-iiiiife. No human being can re-create that sound. There are other singers here on the board - what do you think of this? (that super sexy guy who sang it with the guitar didn't put it in a key that was similar to her top register). When Celine recorded the song, the producers used auto-tune on that note. That is the current pop sound today. All of these non-singers (singing songs written by Sia) can't actually sing and so they've been auto-tuned. Auto-tune has become the sound that is popular today. Celine was clearly auto-tuned on the track. And that's because holding those notes which go down with absolutely no vibrato is IMPOSSIBLE!!! Celine shouldn't even try. I know that she's been sick but that's not the reason. It simply can't be done. Even that Quebec performance got auto-tuned in post-production. It's just like Cher with Believe. Whenever she sang that in concert and it got to the auto-tuned part, she lip-synched it so that it sounded like it did on the radio. When the auto-tune was over, she went back to singing live. Watch Divas Live from 2002 and you'll see what I mean. I thought she sounded great today - other than when she cracked which was because of her illness. But the liiiiii-iiii-iiiife part has NEVER sounded good and never will. Auto-tune it!!!!! Seriously????... I prefer thousand of bad performances Live than one lip-synch performance. I don't give a s*** if she sings bad the liiiiii-iiii-iiiife part bad, she sings it as she feels it in that moment or as she can do it, but she sings TRUE. What I don't understand is why she always get stuck and obsessed to follow the studio version note by not even if she can't because she is sick... They should prepare different arrangements adapted to the status of her voice when they now they have a LIVE performances... She is a master in voice technic so she should start to control more the LIVE performaces.. I have put so many times the same example here and I don't want to be repetitive but look as an example Florence Walsh from Florence + The Machine. She almost always sings live with a powerful voice and she is always trying new versions of the same single and playing with her voice because she knows how to control it....I don't care if Celine sometimes sings bad Live, because she sounds true to me. All we know she have a strong and powerful voice. some performances are not going to change 30 years of career.... And if she is starting to loose her high notes, because she is getting weak or old.... what's the matter??? start to make low songs like Sans Attendre... not full of high notes ballads.... but please.. always true... not lip-synched performances or auto-tuned live performances... If ypu want to hear the perfect studio version, go and listen your mp3 or CD.... 2 Quote

superstar85ca Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:13 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:13 AM (edited) People, I can't believe how harsh everyone has been today. This performance was rather good considering that she is (mentioned a million times) sick right now. Which means she was sick at Jimmy K as well. So much pessimism on this forum it's becoming unhealthy. You should check yourselves and work on making the glass half full. I agree, I just wish she had mentioned that she was under the weather at some point either on or before the Jimmy Kimmel show so it would make more sense for her not to be on her A game Edited September 12, 2013 at 08:13 AM by superstar85ca 1 Quote
Federica G. Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:23 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:23 AM I think that Celine wasn't at her 100% during her performance at the Ellen show yesterday, in fact she mentioned she went to the doctor cause she had a sore throat and wanted to make sure that everything was all right.Her voice in this period is under a lot of pressure and overused so as she's a human being she can't sound perfect...She has to rest for a while and then go back on the road again! Can't wait for he 30th November Paris concert!!! _Love you Celine<3<3<3 Quote
superstar85ca Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:34 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 08:34 AM Again with the long hair Ellen?! I knew she was gonna mention that again! Why didn't she show a nice updated photo of RC with his cute haircut?? Quote

marc-02 Posted September 12, 2013 at 09:32 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 09:32 AM Ive been thinking about this for the longest time... Whoever is in charge of the lights whenever celine sings performs LMBTL live... i was hoping he or she could put a little dramatic effect at the start of the song... I imagine right after the "ah ah aiis" just after the music sort of "breaks down" and suddenly stops, all the lights would die.. and as the beat drops to "i was walking dead".. a single spotlight hits celine from the top and its just dark everywhere else.... then the lights would all just explode during the chorus... That way the performance would have more drama and character on TV.... 2 Quote
celine angelil Posted September 12, 2013 at 09:33 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 09:33 AM great performance and funny interview love the titanic part. Maybe kate is gonna buy the house and look for the neckless 2 Quote

jackwilson Posted September 12, 2013 at 10:43 AM Posted September 12, 2013 at 10:43 AM I liked the whole thing. I think she gave a really lovely interview, she came across as being very funny and approachable! The performance not perfect but still amazing. She has great chemistry with Ellen. The warming up part was great! It's just a pity that she's not feeling a100%. I hope the LA docs sorted her out? 1 Quote

Wita19 Posted September 12, 2013 at 02:41 PM Posted September 12, 2013 at 02:41 PM She said it! No more Titanic song (I love how she calls it) and BYLM. Ok, maybe from time to time... LMBTL era started! "Let's move on!" BTW I hope they'll sell this house before the next interviews...

I think I would seriously turn this into a profitable business if I could afford to buy it! Private water park for the rich. Hahaha.

I'm pretty sure Ramona has moved to Vegas to go every night to the show...I was wondering! LOL Glad it was a kid but I wouldn't be surprised if she did do something like that. And yes, I'm sure she's probably moved to Vegas by now. She goes enough that I'm sure between air-fare, hotels, etc. it's more cost effective to do that. Or maybe she has a time share condo or something? 1 Quote ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life. Let it be your passion, let it bring you pleasure, but don't let it become your identity.

mike_z Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:31 PM Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:31 PM I'm so glad she wants to "move on". Just imagine her like Barbra Streisand singing Because You Loved Me and MHWGO in lower keys for the next 30 years in small and ultra expensive venues. 2 Quote

She says that but still is singing them live not the other songs. She will never truly move on . 1 Quote
zuv Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:40 PM Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:40 PM Fans here are funny. I think they are so used of Celine lip synching and complaining about it, that when she decides to sing live, they complain cause its not perfect like the studio version. DUH!! 3 Quote
Chin Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:40 PM Posted September 12, 2013 at 03:40 PM I remembered Love Is All We Need was originally include in A New Day... I always think that if this song was sung in the show and was released as a single, it would have make Celine's career something different (instead of releasing another ballad like HYEBIL) 1 Quote
