Jessyka Posted June 27, 2014 at 12:50 PM Posted June 27, 2014 at 12:50 PM I'm at work (don't tell my boss I'm posting here...) and I can access you tube, but there's a performance of To Love You More with Taro in Vegas that I think it's just amazing. 1 Quote http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff5/backup674/Banners/Image1.jpg

chocolatechip15 Posted June 28, 2014 at 01:42 AM Posted June 28, 2014 at 01:42 AM There are so many great live performances that it's hard to choose -- and I agree with so many already posted -- In Some Small Way on Jay Leno; TCOML with David Foster; God Bless America in New York right after 9/11 . . . but here are some other amazing ones: Fly on Oprah . . the emotion here was so heartfelt . . so heartbreaking but so beautiful: Because You Loved Me on David Foster and friends. . love how she basically sang it to him -- looking at him especially when singing about him believing in her, seeing the best in her, and making dreams come true. . you could feel the genuine mutual respect and affection there. And she sounded great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6hycTI-WyQ You've Got a Friend on Diva's Live -- love the chemistry and harmonies among the women: I also really love Celine singing Une Chance Qu'on S'a with JP Ferland at the '98 Junos, but I haven't been able to find that for quite some time. . . 4 Quote

woodstock Posted July 2, 2014 at 02:10 PM Posted July 2, 2014 at 02:10 PM Sorry to say that again, but this topic is about live performances, not lipped songs in TV shows or concerts nor studio recordings. Quote

I do hope that one day, she'll perform the latter live. 1 Quote http://i.imgur.com/dQ1vYVz.jpgMais qui peut dire, qu’il peut vivre sans amour, qui?
woodstock Posted July 2, 2014 at 03:08 PM Posted July 2, 2014 at 03:08 PM Here are some of my very favorite live performances : All by Myself - Taratata, 1996 This TV show took place a few days after the very first time I saw Celine in concert. How crazy I was watching this ! What a memory ! --- Do you hear what I hear - These are the Special Times TV Special, 1998 I love both the song and the duet ! http://youtu.be/pHdpqqOaAwU --- Je Crois Toi - Live 2013 My one and only very favorite ever...This unexpected performance is so smooth, so subtle and so right. Love the instrumental part most of all, too ! --- Les Derniers seront les Premiers - Falling Into You World Tour, 1996 I've always loved this song, wish she would sing it again, it sounds really cool on stage ! --- Je t'aime Encore - A New Day... Live in Las Vegas, 2003 I love this song and this live performance is perfect. The silence at the very end is very emotional. http://youtu.be/ckBpJsHQI-I --- I Surrender - A New Day... Live in Las Vegas, 2007 Just because well...this is the Celine that we all love, isn't it ?! --- Seduces Me - Rosie O'donnell Show, 1997 Once again, I simply love the song and this performance shows how good is Celine as a vocalist and how good she expresses feelings with her interpretation. --- Quand on n'a que l'Amour - St Justine Hospital Charity gala, 2007 I had never been fond of the original song but the way Celine sings it always moves me and I love the fact that she keeps on singing it from time to time throughout the years. That particular performance with the choir is very powerful. 3 Quote
Tyler1991 Posted July 3, 2014 at 06:06 AM Posted July 3, 2014 at 06:06 AM I feel like I'm going to devestated a lot of people here.... But a solid 60% of I Surrender is lipsynced. She sings the first verse live, then playback starts with the chorus and continues until the next to last portion. She sings live at the end beginning with "right here, right now..." 1 Quote

smw Posted July 3, 2014 at 03:01 PM Author Posted July 3, 2014 at 03:01 PM So many wonderful performances that I haven't seen in a while! I'm curious -- for those of you posting lipped performances -- do you care that she lipped them? As far as I Surrender is concerned -- my favorite part of that Vegas performance is when she starts singing with "Right Here, Right Now". SO GOOD! I wish for the DVD taping, she sang the entire thing live. I also wonder if it's as blatantly obvious to some fans when she's lipping and when she's not. I guess it depends on how obsessed you are! 1 Quote
Jessyka Posted July 3, 2014 at 03:53 PM Posted July 3, 2014 at 03:53 PM I guess the general public doesn't care (or even know) when she's lipping. 1 Quote http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff5/backup674/Banners/Image1.jpg
CelineDionFreak Posted July 3, 2014 at 04:00 PM Posted July 3, 2014 at 04:00 PM I guess the general public doesn't care (or even know) when she's lipping. The way I look at this is that she had to sing it live to get that track. If she had to lip it, maybe there's some underlying reason we don't know about. 1 Quote I didn't know love until they loved me back to life because somebody loves somebody!Le temps qui compte pour Celine est maintenant!

I guess it depends on how obsessed you are! I don't consider myself as obsessed with that, but well when it comes to songs she has been lipping for more than 15 years now or songs that she does on stage but that have never been live, it's pretty obvious and hard not to consider it.

DionFanAlways Posted July 3, 2014 at 09:56 PM Posted July 3, 2014 at 09:56 PM I honestly don't care one bit, even when I pay to see her! Now, when she does it bad then it's painful to see! (Some of the shows she was on for promo.....) 1 Quote I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.
Jessyka Posted July 3, 2014 at 11:29 PM Posted July 3, 2014 at 11:29 PM I usually am so excited just to be near her that I don't care either if she's lipping or not. 3 Quote http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff5/backup674/Banners/Image1.jpg
sfbaysinger Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:11 PM Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:11 PM As a blind person, who by the way is very obsessed and proud of it though I HATE THAT WORD!!!!!! I DON'T CARE!!!!!! To be honest, I wish it never ever ever ever had to be discussed ever again but I know that's not realistic. But seriously, I wish people would quit ruining it for those of us who don't care. I agree with what was said earlier, just to be near her. She means her songs and that is obvious, even to the dumb blind lady here! 1 Quote L'immensite de mon amour pour Celine! L'amour existe encore pour elle!
sfbaysinger Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:14 PM Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:14 PM And also, I wish she would have recorded a full verion of the French version of You and I. Now, with that, can we get back on topic?!!!! Quote L'immensite de mon amour pour Celine! L'amour existe encore pour elle!
