maceta_biloxi Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:07 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:07 PM I hope she sings more than one song. I watched the one with Mariah Carey and also the one that Faith Hill and they sang more than one song, including Xmas songs. 1 Quote Do What You Want But Harm No One http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs939.snc4/73202_10150111343007542_831827541_7586213_4279368_n.jpg...Looking Alike!?
stone Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:13 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:13 PM The Faith Hill one was amazing! She did about 4 or 5 songs if I remembered correctly. But unfortunately the audience of this type of show is already in Celine's bracket. 1 Quote

Your_Su_Phu Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:20 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:20 PM (edited) The Faith Hill one was amazing! She did about 4 or 5 songs if I remembered correctly. But unfortunately the audience of this type of show is already in Celine's bracket. ...That's exactly who we need right now. She did Kimmel and Fallon, both of whom have much younger audiences, and look what it resulted in charts wise. Don't get me wrong, I have seen a notable amount of new fans based on LMBTL (the single) alone, but if she needs to reach anyone right now it's her oldy moldy core. Too bad it's not her own special, but it's better than nothing. Does this pretty much cancel out the possibility of a CBS special dedicated solely to the album?

Xpresso Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:53 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 06:53 PM It's basically her own special with a spin on adoption. This should bring more viewers! 4 Quote
superstar85ca Posted November 15, 2013 at 07:30 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 07:30 PM Personally I am super happy about this, however this is just another excuse for haters to post comments in the articles "why did she do IVF and not adopt kids herself? blah blah blah. People are so critical of her, drives me nuts 2 Quote
Celine Fan 77 Posted November 15, 2013 at 08:19 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 08:19 PM I she does Christmas songs, I hope it will be someone that she hasn't peformed before...

Angel2006 Posted November 15, 2013 at 08:46 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 08:46 PM Maybe this means that Celine is finally considering adoption. I know she still would like to have more kids and Rene said there is less then 1 percent chance of her becoming pregnant now, so maybe this is a sign that Celine is thinking of adoption. 2 Quote

Angel2006 Posted November 15, 2013 at 09:26 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 09:26 PM Is this a live show? I know it broadcasts on Dec 18th, but does anyone know when Celine is taping the show? Quote
peanut91 Posted November 15, 2013 at 09:39 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 09:39 PM incredible will be great! as well as the song thankful? i really love thankful and i think its also a perfect chance to sing this song@ Quote

THANKFUL would be perfect!! I hope there's a choir in the special -- so she can sing a Christmas song (maybe one she's never performed before!), INCREDIBLE, and THANKFUL!!! If she performs any of her hits -- I hope it's a quick, nice, medley. And then go right into a new song! I hope she performs DON'T SAVE IT ALL FOR CHRISTMAS DAY. And prefaces the performances with "I wrote this song back in 1998 for my Christmas album, TAST." She can plug both albums at once! This really is a great platform for Celine. She's playing to the perfect crowd. This will remind a lot of people why they love her. Edited November 15, 2013 at 10:27 PM by smw 5 Quote

Stuart2007 Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:48 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:48 PM Here I am getting all nostalgic about the first cbs special 15 years ago and then a new one gets announced. This sounds great the cbs specials never dissapoint. What a good week this has been, good uk promo for the album and now good promo for the US, which is exactly what is needed right now. 3 Quote
LuisMa Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:50 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:50 PM Yes, more promo for the US makes me excited. I feel the same excitement as when she hosted the Junos in 93! 3 Quote
Loup_garou Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:57 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 10:57 PM It would be amazing if she performed "Incredible," "I"m your Angel," both with Ne-yo and "I met an angel (On christmas day)" and "Christmas Eve"!!! Quote
LukeD Posted November 15, 2013 at 11:00 PM Posted November 15, 2013 at 11:00 PM (edited) 'Ιncredible' and 'Thankful' are a must for this Tv Special. I can also see her performing 'Always be your girl' or 'Lullaby (Goodnight, my angel)'. Edited November 15, 2013 at 11:01 PM by LukeD 3 Quote
zuv Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:19 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:19 AM She should also promote TAST with DSIAFCD I love that song so much, lyrically and musically! And Celine wrote it :-) Also agree with Incredible and Thankful! The choir would be amazing and could also serve for Oh Come all ye Faithful 1 Quote
LuisMa Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:22 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:22 AM She should also promote TAST with DSIAFCDThat sounds like a medical prescription. Take TAST with a dose of DSIAFCD. Yes, that would be good. And O, Christmas Tree. I'd die to listen to the complete Celine version of that one. 2 Quote
Xpresso Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:23 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:23 AM This is great news but I find Dec. 18 a bit late in the game, don't you think? For sure, it's better than nothing... The late Xmas shoppers will know what to buy as a last minute gift... Quote
Xpresso Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:27 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:27 AM If she sings a song from TAST, I wish it would be Another Year Has Gone By... with Bryan Adams. Perfect for a Dec. 18 TV show. 2 Quote
LukeD Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:45 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 12:45 AM This is great news but I find Dec. 18 a bit late in the game, don't you think? For sure, it's better than nothing... The late Xmas shoppers will know what to buy as a last minute gift... After the TV Special, there is a whole week until Christmas. Shoppers will have a good 6 days to bring the album... back to life! 2 Quote

Celine said on the last interview that Rene was old to be a dad now and that it would be selfish of them to consider having another child. Too bad, I wanted a petite Celine! But if Celine thinks Rene is old, that goes for IVF as well as for adoption! 2 Quote

Too bad, I wanted a petite Celine! But if Celine thinks Rene is old, that goes for IVF as well as for adoption! That was one of many things she said in that interview that were different than anything she'd said before. Odd, because in so many other interviews she'd said the age didn't matter, that he'd given them so much already that it was a part of them, that she would represent him as Mom and Dad . .I remember them asking how she felt when Rene was sick in '99, before she had any children, and they froze his sperm -- they asked her if she would have wanted a baby if Rene had died. And she said she would have wanted it more than ever, because the baby would have been part of Rene. It also seems silly that she didn't acknowledge, in that last interview, that she's 45 and it would be practically impossible for her to get pregnant at this point - especially since she's acknowledged that in other interviews. There were so many odd things in that interview that it makes me wonder about it, especially because it was translated from english or french --> german, and then back from german --> english. I wonder how well the interviewer spoke english when translating the interview into german. Edited November 16, 2013 at 01:15 AM by chocolatechip15 3 Quote

chocolatechip15 Posted November 16, 2013 at 01:18 AM Posted November 16, 2013 at 01:18 AM sometimes, if you follow closely, it does not make sense at all Yes! And I edited my post to say that I think part of the issue is that Celine must have answered the questions in English or French, which was translated to German, and then translated back to English for us. I wonder if the German interviewer didn't speak English/French too well, and just kind of guessed at some of Celine's answers. . . . 2 Quote
