Tom_London_Fan Posted May 22, 2019 at 04:47 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 04:47 PM Shamrock_1982 I think Vegas is a great holiday destination, with the great added bonus of Celine and there’s plenty more to do here besides her. I would have gone to the last show if there were any decent tickets under $1000 but there wasn’t...so I’m enjoying my nostalgic farewell to Celine in Vegas this week instead 🙂 4 Quote

Chantemoi Posted May 22, 2019 at 05:24 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 05:24 PM Here’s is “Can’t Help Falling in Love” from last night, May 21. I remarked to my friend that her vocals were “hot and scorched,” and Céline noticeably skirted around some of her high runs on this song as well as many others. 1 Quote
AdrienneM Posted May 22, 2019 at 05:31 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 05:31 PM Shes not been hitting the high runs in Months. I dont blame her, theyre hard. Especially in such arid conditions when shes already trying to preserve her voice Quote

ivo Posted May 22, 2019 at 07:17 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 07:17 PM I know we had a discussion about the way she sings PQTME and I thought it was a little harsh but....... I have to say I was a little disappointed in it last night. (Don’t stone me) it’s like she’s thinking, ‘oh it’s Vegas I’m just going to get through it.’ Any way it’s how I felt about it. Lol I was singing it and she was pausing and doing unnecessary runs and I’m like damn I’m off rhythm .... I don’t like this version of PQTME at all, I hope she will sing the normal version again. This change is not better in my opinion. 1 Quote Amsterdam 18-06-1997 - Amsterdam 14-06-1999 - London 10-07-1999 - Antwerpen 14-05-2008 - Antwerpen 21-11-2013 - Las Vegas 10-10-2015 - Paris 09-07-2016 - Arnhem 23-06-2017 - 🇫🇷 Paris 9-10-2026 🇫🇷
AdrienneM Posted May 22, 2019 at 07:58 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 07:58 PM I know people complain about the gold suit alot, but the pink and turquoise dress is just so much worse for me. Its ugly, has no shape, does her body no favours and just isnt flattering. I preffered the mirror type dress with the bird shoes or even the Knights sweater... 2 Quote

AdrienneM Posted May 22, 2019 at 08:12 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 08:12 PM The wardrobe from the first years of the show was the best. Simply perfect! I like a combo of the 2011 and 2015 shows. I like the opening and white ABM dress’ from 2011 and I like the black dress and Silver dress from 2015, along with the 2017 opening dress... loved it in January/Feb 2017 when she had the long, sleek hair that was to the side Quote

And this has been happening for months now, since it's everywhere! 😂Pretty amazing that such a simple kids song actually made it onto the Billboard Top 40 - and I mean the main chart!

Even Line Renaud did!There's already a Celine Dion Boulevard in Charlemagne. I expect Vegas will soon follow. 8 Quote

Tom_London_Fan Posted May 22, 2019 at 11:21 PM Posted May 22, 2019 at 11:21 PM One thing is for sure, they must have virtually sold out (or close to) these last remaining shows. All the adverts, banners and billboards have pretty much gone. I’m so used to seeing her face everywhere in Vegas, starting at the airport when you arrive. I suppose there’s no need now...but just something I noticed. 2 Quote

Haven't been in a while though.. when's a good time to interrupt? Would be SO funny!!!!! There are quite a few opportunities because she herself talks SO much. Honestly though you just have to feel it out...the audience can be loud and wild some nights and other nights pretty quiet. It would be hilarious when she's introducing You're The Voice and starts talking about a song she has always loved and she doesn't know why it's taken it so long for her to perform it and you scream out BABY SHARK! :sofunny: Quote
LVCeline Posted May 23, 2019 at 12:17 AM Posted May 23, 2019 at 12:17 AM I do not enjoy many of her runs in Can't Help Falling in Love With You. They sound strange, like they don't match the melody. I do like that she's not pushing the very last notes beyond what she can do. It could sound nice if she dropped those weird runs. She does sound good though for the majority of the song. Also, PQTME was fantastic on her last tour, she did some changes that were awesome, so it's fine if she wants to change it up a bit, but the changes she has made recently are just not good. She's grabbing her dress and flinging it like she's a matador and speak singing certain parts, shortening phrases, it's just not pleasant to my ears (and several others apparently). Looking forward to Vegas ending, this last leg has such a strange setlist. I can't fathom her keeping You're the Voice, it's just such an odd choice of song for Vegas. Still looking forward to being at her last two shows though, just because I have criticism doesn't mean I don't love her! 4 Quote
Ajax Posted May 23, 2019 at 12:37 AM Posted May 23, 2019 at 12:37 AM Well listening to the beginning of TPOL her voice is so tired. Just before the playback begins her belt cracks. She cannot sustain her mid notes. Can I say that ? Well I guess she is : rehearsing for the tour, just finishing some more studio recording, doing some videos for the future promo... and Vegas is already behind her. Just hope at one point she will have some time to rest/train her instrument before the real storm. 1 Quote

Some nights I feel like she reacts to quite a few things that are shout out. Other times, she'll ignore every single one. lol Just depends on her mood and the crowd that night.
