Luki Dion Posted May 9, 2018 at 06:08 AM Posted May 9, 2018 at 06:08 AM Guys, this is me cover Ashes through Smule.... it is also a hard song to sing... excuse my pronunciation. https://www.smule.com/p/810163557_2205496805 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote I LOVE TO SING...BUT I LOVE TO TALK TOO....!!
Tyler1991 Posted May 10, 2018 at 08:31 AM Posted May 10, 2018 at 08:31 AM 1992 has the most stand out performances. It is probably a vocal peak in my opinion. I would have to say that while 1997-1999 may have been more of a peak in regards with sales/touring/popularity, the vocals were not as consistent. Just take a look at these performances, and please I would love thoughts and for some to provide a few in different eras that are on par? Sure, there are some!! But in 1992 alone there were SO MANY! Just a few of my favorites I've enjoyed tonight! The Christmas Song - first time she had sung this, even before the red dress performance with David Foster. I love the crystal clarity, you can hear that last belt ring.... love it! L'amour Existe Encore - from a technical standpoint, thisperformance reigns superb over all others! If You Asked Me To - this is the same performance Patti Labelle had watched from home and given her praise of Celine; I particularly loved the ending, the adlibs to end the song. Would have loved the second verse. Every last word was on point. So many belts in such fast transition. This is one of her best vocals no doubt ever!! Love Can Move Mountains - from the same show; back when this song was a power ballad with many high notes. 3:18 YES, 4:11 YESS, 4:18, the whole ending. I was missing the ONE adlib "we GOOOT to believe in each other" she's only done three times (once was in 1992, once in 1993, and once in 2003) Le Blues Du Businessman - maybe not as good as Live a Paris or even Olympia...but certainly not bad at all. This same show is the LCMM one with the last adlib nailed....also sang Nothing Broken and BATB. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItTmoSnJqdg Nothing Broken But My Heart @ Tonight show - beautiful. I only wish she had ended with the full slow ending. Je danse dans ma tete - wow, she has the amount of fun she does singing LCMM but manages to sing every adlib correctly nailing it, sounding so flawless! She also nailed Water from the moon same night....can't find it anymore! Imagine - everyone knows this performance is a classic. Pretty sure it's 1992 even though title says 1993. My Way - one of her best covers 4 Quote

jpatdeleon09 Posted May 11, 2018 at 04:36 PM Posted May 11, 2018 at 04:36 PM (edited) d'Elles special was all playback. I think you were talking about the 1st TV Special that was done back in May 2007. There are 2 D'elles TV Special. May and June 2007. June 2007 was mostly live.. with guests like Maurane, Johnny, Amel, etc. "For the release of her new French-language album, Dion taped a two-hour television special about D'elles which was broadcast on 21 May 2007 on TVA in Canada. It was hosted by Quebec television icon Julie Snyder and featured Dion and the female authors who wrote the song lyrics for the album.[26] Dion performed: "Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)", "Immensité", "Je cherche l'ombre", "Berceuse", "La diva", "Le temps qui compte" and "On s'est aimé à cause". The recording sessions for "Femme comme chacune", "Lettre de George Sand à Alfred de Musset" and "Si J'étais quelqu'un" were also shown. The television special was watched by 1,614,000 viewers and became the number-one-rated show for the week of 21 to 27 May with 82% share of the audience.[27][28]On 9 June 2007, another television special was broadcast, this time in France on TF1. Dion was interviewed and performed three songs from D'elles ("Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)", "A cause" and "Immensité") and also many duets: "Stayin' Alive" with Vitaa, Shy'm and Amel Bent, "Hymne à l'amour" with Maurane and Johnny Hallyday, "Blueberry Hill" with Johnny Hallyday, "The Show Must Go On" with Christophe Maé and David Hallyday, "My Heart Will Go On" with Lââm and Amel Bent, "Caroline" with MC Solaarand Nolwenn Leroy, "Être à la hauteur" with Merwan Rim and Christophe Maé, and "Caruso" with Florent Pagny.[29] This television special was watched by 4,987,440 viewers."

Remember the Sainte Justine Private Benefit Show? The A New Day show? Yeah i was talking about Sainte Justine, only Si Deu Existe and Sous Le Vent were good not much else was anything but normal and Si Deu Existe was good because of the extra belt, as for Quand on na Qu lamour which was sub par imo. The delles special her belts were shaking especially during TSMGO, add to that her seemingly weakend mixed voice. Her best 2007 vocal moment was Oprah with that amazing request segment. In 2007 she also did an AMAZING rendition of TC on the today show, better than 90% of the others. Vocally she was best in 1992,1994,1995,1996,2002,2011 and 2012. Like her performance of Lamour Existe Encore in 2011 was better than the whole TC tours efforts Quote

Tyler1991 Posted May 13, 2018 at 12:00 AM Posted May 13, 2018 at 12:00 AM (edited) I think 2007 was not impressive but 2008 at the beginning of the tour was great. The very first performance of fade away she nailed all the high belts at the end. It was the only time she really went for every belt in this song and they sounded great. https://youtu.be/m-mTLjZjAnA The rehearsal of thats just the woman in me where she sang it way better than the tour playback. The earlier shows she sang the bridge note in alone more chesty as an f5 or f#5 and it was amazing. Way better than when she mixed it heavily and went higher. Also in this video the final playback failed. Exact same thoughts on the "everything they can" belt in its a mans world. Earlier shows it was an f5 or f#5, slightly sustained. Interestingly she ditched that way even before europe but for one of the 4 dvd tapings she reverted back, obviously they didnt use it..2:29https://youtu.be/PtM46kbYkPc Then we have the opening show where she sang the high note in abm for the last time and the only time since millennium. That note, pity the crap video and sound quality, but it was perfect. Less strain than in the 90s. One of her best ever attempts. I got the music in me....wasnt that a fun number to open with for awhile? Most of the 2008 shows she sang show must go on. This was when the ending c#5 was always live. I know many didnt particularly care for tcwt performance of think twice but personally the e5 sustained baby belt was definitely easier to hit then than it is now (though she still does a solid job hitting it, you can tell it was so easy then).https://youtu.be/FoylkSy5ntg Edited May 13, 2018 at 12:09 AM by Tyler1991 4 Quote
LeChauffeur100 Posted May 13, 2018 at 01:40 AM Posted May 13, 2018 at 01:40 AM I have to say that I adore how her hair looked at the start of the TC Tour, I think it's the best it's ever looked like. Also I wish we had a full professional recording of I've Got The Music In Me, it sounded really great in her voice and worked well as a opening number. 2 Quote EVERYONE AFRAID TO BE FORGOTTEN - album & film by ionnalee; out NOW at ionnalee.comhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF-8uJUpL5A

Anyway i agree with almost all of this but OMG I HAD NEVER HEARD THAT REHERSAL OF TJTWIM. I slightly disagree that the playback failed in that alone clip, its highly possible she just wanted to try it out and see how it went Regarding TT. In 2008 you can tell she was actually lightly mixing the note to make it easier as in my opinion whilst her higher belts were great, her mid belts in this era were lacking. Her 2016 and 2017 mid belts were far better than TC era. The E5 she does now sounds far stronger and the c#5 sounds far more powerful and resonant than it did there, it sounded kind of muffled Edited May 13, 2018 at 10:44 AM by Dion2000 Quote
Luki Dion Posted May 13, 2018 at 03:40 PM Posted May 13, 2018 at 03:40 PM For Alone that you said it was playback failed. For me, if it meant to be playback, Celine wouldn’t have to belt her voice to the mic but just maybe falsetto or whisper. But she nailed it from the beginning of the famous playback part “how do i get you alone......” means it is meant to be sung live.

Ad libbing or karate kicking it. It almost appears as this show celine pauses touches her monitor to get message she has to sing live maybe? Idk. Personally it didnt look planned but just my opinion. It also was a little flat i think? If she dropped the playback to slay it she would have been more on point. Quote
