I'm pretty sure it must have been a contractual obligation. More successful songwriters (or producers, etc.) can mandate that they'll only allow an artist to record their song if it's guaranteed to be a single (or they can get even more specific and mandate it's the album launch single, or the title track, etc.). When team Céline decided to move on to One Heart so soon, they may still have "owed" the HYEBIL songwriters its release as a single, and rather than delay the release of OH, they made the questionable decision to repeat the track on a consecutive album and use it to promote OH instead of ANDHC.

 

Of course, they should never have agreed to make such an incredibly generic, boring song a single in the first place... :D Reveal or Naked would have been sooooo much better!

 

And note that I don't have any inside information that the above is what happened in this case so don't take it as confirmed; it just wouldn't surprise me.

 

HYEBIL was included on OH and released as a single because they were using it as part of the Chrysler campaign that Celine was participating in.

I’m always intrigued by this recording. Celine wasn’t in top shape vocally during this session - but she gives it absolutely everything she has and - as a result - it’s such a beautiful, touching, from her soul delivery.

 

It’s definitely a standout in her English recordings. I’m sure she would have preferred to be in better vocal shape, but you can tell it meant a lot to her to give it her all.

to this day I still can’t understand how they had real contemporary gem songs like Reveal, but they opted to let her sing and promote HYEBIL, a mediocre ballad that already appeared on ANDHC a year before. What on earth were they thinking? She could still kick #ss with her modern 2003 songs, even after IDAN. So much unused potential!

 

I absolutely love Reveal, but I don’t think it would have been a successful single.

 

I actually think releasing Have You Ever Been In Love was a good move. I think it’s a very strong power ballad, and it was a successful single. Celine’s lower register sounds really nice, and it’s exactly the kind of song the public craved from Celine Dion at the time.

 

Sometimes I forget how well that song performed... and I think she should bring it back into her shows.

 

From Wikipedia:

 

"Have You Ever Been in Love" was released on 14 April 2003, as One Heart's second (promotional only) single in the United States and Canada, while on 3 November 2003, it was released as the third commercial single in selected European countries.[1] The song spent fourteen weeks at number 2 on the US Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, setting a record for most weeks at the second position.”

 

I do wish she had her IDAN music video hair in the HYEBIY music video.

What makes you think she wasn't in top shape?

Btw, that recording session of I Knew I Loved You was recorded in 2005. Then, after 2 years, she sang it Live on Oscars 2007

Yes. 2005 was a weird year vocally for her. If she recorded it in 2007 it would have sounded even better. I think her Oscars' performance is very good, but she did mess up a word. She sang 'seep" instead of sleep lol.

 

And yes, someone took down the recording from Youtube. It was part of Quincy Jones' video blog, it was the first episode in his internet series. Maybe someone will find it elsewhere.

I really don't like most of the live performances of PQTME. The Jay Leno version is probably the only exception....but nothing matches the studio version. The record version has the lightness in all the right parts....it seems that exact lightness in her voice was hard to capture later on.

And after that came the butchered new version that sounds nothing like it anymore... I hope she stops singing it like that. It is a fan favorite, don’t mess with it Celine. Neither are we waiting for a jazz version of my heart will go on;)

Which butchered version did you talk about? And what are you calling jazz version?

 

But yes, I can basically only listen to the studio version of PQTME....it really is unparalleled anyway.

The one she sang in England . And about the jazz version - I just wanted to say my heart will go on is fine as it is now, we are not waiting for a jazz version, nor for this improvised new version of my pqtme, the way she sings it lately.

Obsessed. I spammed the #SayYes campaign on Youtube, let's hope the comments don't get taken down.

 

The videos remind me of hologram/holographic performances. Or like Virtual Reality or Augmented Reality.....could you imagine if that's how Celine started her new Vegas show, without that Refuse to Dance production value!

Then don’t spam it so it will not be taken down. Problem solved lol Edited by jpatdeleon09
