PuraVida Posted August 8, 2021 at 01:07 PM Posted August 8, 2021 at 01:07 PM That's speculation. She could have covered the songs for a number of reasons. She clearly likes it, but she has stated many times in the past that she acts out the characters in her songs. If you look at the lyrics, it's very clearly "outsiders think I'm happy, but I'm miserable. My fans focus on me like I'm God when the world is full of problems." which points to much more endearing and altruistic motives. Even if she was being more autobiographical....why should anyone not be allowed to sing about that regardless of their notoriety or wealth? Le Blues Du Businessman is essentially the same song. My Love has similar themes as well. The insinuation that Celine is self-agrandizing is laughable to anyone that has studied her and an insult in my opinion. It also implies that famous people can't have problems or shouldn't communicate their problems, when fame actually can be very alienating. Many celebrities are out-of-touch and narcissistic, Celine is not one of them. And the point about Joni is that she is also one of the least self-aggrandizing people, completely not a "woe is me" person, and very much about social causes in her music. And she is a songwriter who wrote these types of songs for others and other characters. Which goes to show too how it doesn't have to be autobiographical. 3 Quote
Dancing_Queen Posted August 8, 2021 at 01:40 PM Posted August 8, 2021 at 01:40 PM Around 2016, Céline would often say 'we are ordinary people living extraordinary lives'. Which is exactly the message of the song. A message that must've resonated with her more than ever at a time when she was losing her husband to cancer. She was singing in Vegas every night (with fans screaming her name, treating her like a superhuman) and then came home to the very harsh 'human' reality of her husband lying in his sickbed. I obviously can't relate, but I can empathize. I don't really see what's so self-aggrandizing or 'woe is me' about it to be honest. The fact that I won't go through it doesn't mean it's not a valid struggle. Or are celebrities not allowed to sing about their specific struggles because they are rich and 'others have it worse'? 2 Quote
québecflower Posted August 8, 2021 at 02:33 PM Posted August 8, 2021 at 02:33 PM I find any artist singing a song about how they're a "misunderstood star" to be in poor taste. So what if Joni Mitchell did it, too? It's tacky for her to do it as well. And it's disingenuous to suggest Céline's playing a character in the song is a form of remove; the entire reason for her choice to cover that song is for the parallel resonance to her career and situation. Like I said, I assumed many would not be on the same page…that is not what the song is telling... it says that the public sees her like a big star , but the reality is not that, she is judt someone who likes to sing, that sometimes she is tired od her career demands. 5 Quote Plus qu'ailleurs , but now Si c'était à refaire , i still love tant de temps....

Now “I got the music in me”, was one of very few covers that I loved, petty it was short lived…. I thought it was a great opener! I kind hope if she has to sing a cover, that it makes it’s way into the new Vegas show! 3 Quote

marc-02 Posted August 10, 2021 at 02:33 PM Posted August 10, 2021 at 02:33 PM (edited) Apparently, Celine was the inspiration behind this song and music video. They wanted to do a parody of Deadpool and Ashes (big ballad in a superhero movie with epic cheesy music video) Here's the interview with the composer: “I got this script in my inbox and Erik [Kripke, the showrunner] said, ‘You’re gonna wanna look at this one because I need you to out-Celine Dion Celine Dion,'” Lennertz recalls. “I remember reading the script and being like, ‘Oh, my God, this is gonna be so much fun.’ I tend to love really over-the-top straight parody, especially in music. I got to do it in ‘Sausage Party’ and working with Alan Menken on ‘Galavant.’ … The straighter you play it, the funnier it is, and as soon as I read it, I was like, ‘Oh, my God, this is a perfect setup.'” Saltzman had already written some lyrics, so Lennertz built on those and composed the music, including a massive drum section during the bridge. He also looked to some pop divas for inspiration. “I went through all of my favorites — Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Adele, Bonnie Tyler from the 80s. There are so many great power ballads and I sort of like got them all in my head for a couple days and sat down. Erik and I talked about it, and he said, ‘It’s gotta have the contemporary production of an Adele, but it should be sufficiently cheesy,’ like ‘Titanic’ or something like that. That’s where it all came from,” he explains. “There was no light touch for this. This was swing for the fence and as over the top as we can make it. It would be funnier if we were really over the top.” Edited August 10, 2021 at 02:34 PM by marc-02 Quote
