Nmj Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:48 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:48 AM (edited) I was very happy with the amazing Beethoven intro in Vegas... which finally showed some creativity with a cover!Let's hope she sings the Vegas version on Sunday. But imagine if you are not a big fan and hear it on the Billboard Awards and decide to buy it online. And then you hear this uninspired and distorted version, you'd never download another Céline song again!!! This is not a good career move! Celine is one a very few artists in the world period that can sing her songs better LIVE than the studio versions. So I don't think people will be that pissed off.

Ororo Munroe Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:49 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:49 AM I also have another theory. Since they cannot bring the whole orchestra to the BBMA, they probably arranged this new version with the violing and a small band. While doing so, they probably recorded it and someone came to the idea of "mixing" it with Céline's actual vocals from the show and that's how this strange version came to life.Then someone decided to release it. I'm positive this will be the version we'll be hearing on sunday. I hope you are wrong 1 Quote

Xpresso Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:54 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:54 AM They NEED to bring the whole orchestra for the ICON!If Céline wants to surprise people, she has to do the Vegas version on Sunday otherwise it's same old, same old.Perfect way to take the attention away from her new French single. They could have waited a week after the Billboard Awards to release the French single... 3 Quote
scielle Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:56 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 12:56 AM Well, if there's anything Aldo has proved in the last little while is he enjoys the element of surprise! But in this case, seems like an epic fail. We've got to Tweet, Tweet, Tweet Sony so they can stop this before it spreads! Oy. 6 Quote

LukeD Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:06 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:06 AM (edited) In my opinion, this is the worst case of lack of artistic ambition: To have live vocals heavily edited and pass them as a studio recording. This action alone (no matter the intention) does no justice to the original, nor to the status of Celine. The cringeworthy result just makes things worse. Because if the result was any good, then I would probably excuse the laziness. Never been more disappointed as a fan. Good night, people! Edited May 20, 2016 at 01:10 AM by LukeD 6 Quote
Xpresso Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:09 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:09 AM (edited) I can't buy this song! I listened to it once and I can't do it again... It's a shame really. When you think people could have "rediscovered" Céline with a cool cover... The Show Must Go On...but The Single Must Not. Edited May 20, 2016 at 01:12 AM by Xpresso 5 Quote

artistman2007 Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:22 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:22 AM (edited) I'm telling u if celine is wiling to sing that version live during bbmas then she better perform naked ,i mean im serious ,or topless thats the least she can do for us,thats the only way to get the audience attention so that they dont listen to that burbing fenomena , just saying ofcourse its up to her and her lovely team 🤑🤗 Edited May 20, 2016 at 01:30 AM by artistman2007 2 Quote
Kristinaz Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:24 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:24 AM This reminds me of my reaction with the studio version of OA. I couldn't believe how much they had changed that one too in comparison to the Vegas version ......bah now I want a live cd of the show. Studio versions IMO never fully capture the magic of the live show 3 Quote
Nmj Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:24 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:24 AM I remember I was disappointed with OPEN ARMS studio version but it now sounds like a wonderful production next to this! The production of the whole LMBTL album wasn't a great thin if you ask me. I just hope they start making the production great again. Lately the production has a very rushed and cheap feel to it. Please we need David Foster and Humberto Gatica back. No more granny bedroom voice while we're at it. And start mixing her voice again to sound like the flawless vocalist that she is. 1 Quote
pat200 Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:27 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:27 AM i am beyond disappointed. shocked actually. vocals are very weak, nasal, she screeched on a few high notes. this is not a recording dignified of the greatest singer, this sounds like an amateur recording she took in her shower after a night's concert performance and they just added the poor production behind it. i was expecting something epic but got this. at least fix it and polish it better! even mariah who can't sing her songs live sounds so good on record, that is the least expected...so worried about her BBMA performance...when will we get a great performance already this year? 2 Quote
mike_z Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:30 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:30 AM Actually with time there are less and less places in her voice that don't sound strained, nasal, or raspy. But it's called aging.The magic of the studio work is that she can actually build a recording around those places where she sounds crystal clear. An example of this is the placement the uses for "Over the rainbow". flawless. I think she's in some place where she needs to evolve to her "new self". Maybe sh'ell need to adapt her repertoire. She won't be able to belt forever. I don't know how Shirley Bassey does it but I don't think Céline will hold much longer. She still has a beautiful head voice and mid belts. She could sing a more Barbra Streisand-related repertoire and let go of those power ballads. 4 Quote

DionFanAlways Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:37 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:37 AM (edited) The world will go on spinning and I will keep on admiring and following this woman. (but I just don't get why they would be happy with "the screech" in the middle, I can't stop listening to it and asking why? ) Edited May 20, 2016 at 01:38 AM by DionFanAlways 3 Quote I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.

ehild Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:40 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:40 AM I feel like the screech in the middle is auto-tune applied to a belt that didn't need it. Aside from that I actually really like it. It's a cover so I didn't expect much. But it definitely has a Lindsey Sterling touch and I love that! 3 Quote ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life.

chy2j Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:41 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:41 AM May someone please share with me what is Aldo tweet username?Element of surprise :clap: Recording quality :doh: I agree with majority of you guys here that the note at 2.43 is unacceptable for CELINE standard.

Nmj Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:42 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:42 AM Barbra could still belt with the best of them into her 50s. I think Celine will be able to belt as long as she desires to take care of her voice. Will it sound like 1997 Celine belting, no. But it will still be way above average for anyone let alone at the age she will be. Quote

The screech is a weird touch, but other then that I think it's good. It's different, that's kinda why I like it. she gave it her own touch! 2 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!

Chin Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:52 AM Posted May 20, 2016 at 01:52 AM (edited) Just release the live version instead. Leave this version as a b side and call it a remix version or whatever. Very disappointed with this version! Edited May 20, 2016 at 01:53 AM by Chin Quote
