Neddo Posted November 22, 2013 at 07:22 AM Posted November 22, 2013 at 07:22 AM Open Arms is a modern power ballad now. Very Celinish yet a sincere tribute to Journey and much better than Mariah's panned version. They should have put this not Overjoyed because OJ haves a Japanese feel to it while open Arms is more western 5 Quote http://imageshack.us/a/img138/7804/5tq2.png

PuraVida Posted November 22, 2013 at 08:36 AM Posted November 22, 2013 at 08:36 AM ...a couple semitones higher please Celine! As for the speed of the song, I can scarcely imagine her singing it that quickly in a live performance. Quote

Narada Posted November 22, 2013 at 11:02 AM Posted November 22, 2013 at 11:02 AM Anyone one from the UK received the vinyl + cd from my play direct/store yet? Got a notification email 1st November to say it had been despatched :-( Quote
amelie Posted November 22, 2013 at 11:04 AM Posted November 22, 2013 at 11:04 AM at last a good cover but it doesn't fit the album at all, they did well to put in the japanese edition but they should have put it in the i-tunes version too Quote

marc-02 Posted November 22, 2013 at 01:09 PM Posted November 22, 2013 at 01:09 PM (edited) Open arms full studio version When she sings "come" during the second chorus.. "So now I COOOME to you..".. im not kidding, i literally saw angels fly! Haha... she makes that part her own, because she changed how it was sung, compared to MC amd journey's versions!

As for the speed of the song, I can scarcely imagine her singing it that quickly in a live performance. I agree... the song is too plain.. she doesn't even enter the 5th octave... highest note is a B4.... for a powerful ballad that's like.... lazy.. loved the arrangements but they could have done a lot more with it. missed opportunity Quote

rhapsodion Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:05 PM Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:05 PM (edited) I sent in an email couple weeks ago to the music store, asking for a new replacement of my vinyl +cd version, as the jacket of the LP was torn. Haven't heard back from them since then, and just now i received an email from the music store saying they have shipped another new vinyl to me. I Really appreciate that!!

smash Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:08 PM Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:08 PM totally epic and better than overjoy and seventeen........what a waste the rest of the world not able to enjoy this song......Oh wow!! That is now such a beautiful song, they are playing the music a bit different, it is sooo nice the way it is now, and the way Celine sings it. It really is a pity we dont have this version on the album. For me, its much nicer than before. Maybe they can put it as a bonus track or whatever on the DVD we're supposed to be getting after Christmas, can something like that be done? Sorry i'm sounding stupid now, but i'm not very clued up on that kind of stuff. Lets hope we can maybe get the song that way. Sharon 1 Quote

Exactly, it's precisely in these moments when Celine makes these covers her OWN! Something she didn't achieve (imho) with At Seventeen, Overjoyed, How Do You Keep The Snooze Audience Awake or Lullabye! And what do you say of these faster arrangements? It's so much better than in Vegas!

Javito Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:17 PM Posted November 22, 2013 at 04:17 PM It's not her bit hit. Not her biggest hit but Open Arms is still a very well known song by Mariah in Europe. Very few know here that it's not an original song of her (but of Journey) and hence they identify Mariah with it. Quote "Hush, now... I see a light in the sky"

But you can't compare it in terms of it's popularity with "The Power Of Love"..it just makes no sense. 3 Quote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL54qnRGM2gMatthew Charles - "Fix You" - Live at The Stonewall InnStonewall Sensation - Season 15Originally written and performed by Coldplay
