Céline Dion Live 2017 (tour) - Official Topic

[Xpresso]

Funny how after tweeting some anger about a setlist, a "fan" comes up with the typical "we don't need to agree with everything she does" answer. Of course not, and I get that. But not agreeing with a change in setlist doesn't mean it's ok to get nasty against the singer on Twitter. Just because the cuckoo President of the United States lashes out on Twitter on a regular basis doesn't mean it's fine.

He's no role model in my opinion (and not just on social media... but that's a different story)!

So before hurting the singer you love (or not) on social media, Think Twice Before You Tweet.

How about tweeting about the positive parts of the show?

I have to say, her performances of The Colour of My Love the last couple nights have blown me away. I absolutely adore the tone of her voice at the moment singing this song. I've always thought that her voice was a little too throaty on the CD version, still beautiful, but her tone is warmer now and those belts are absolutely powerful and open, and sound incredible. And that dress!! Holy crap I could never have imagined she'd wear something like that! It's incredible, I love that she is trying new things. She's a different singer/performer outside of Vegas, I don't think there's any disputing that at this point.

poor president , he is the scapegoat of everything..

[celinesounds]

Maybe next concert we will get new songs, who knows

 

not bad she sang twice Love is all we need and refuse to dance, we thought it was impossible, she did it

 

maybe those songs are not sung in the right place, why not next to a better know song

 

refuse to dance next to IACBTMN

 

and love is all we need before i drove all night

 

i love Treat her like a lady is kind of reggae sound, maybe and acoustic version would works better

 

and why not turn Misled in a Rock song?

 

do you think Madonna ever gives up of new/recycling stuff?

It was a song that told BOTH sides of her professional relationship with Rene, mixing with their personal.

 

I've never thought My Love was about Rene - it always surprises me when fans call it a song about Rene. Neither she nor Linda Perry ever mention Rene, at all, in the making of video. To me, it's clear that My Love is about the ambivalence she feels about her public persona and fame, and having such a successful, demanding career. It's about her relationship with the public and her career, not with Rene. (obviously, Rene is a big part of her career, so it's not inextricable,but the song doesn't seem to really be about him).

 

Celine herself said in the video that the downsides of her career are the results of the choices SHE made herself. At 4:20 of the video: "Even though I'm the one who wanted it -- I wanted that life." And 4:45 "I think I was meant to do what I'm doing, but the worst problem for me is who I am, in a way."

 

And Linda says at 5:47: "It's you who made it clear that I would do all this. I would be this person to everybody." And at 8:20: "That's what the song is about. Accepting the choice that you've made." The song is about Celine's own choices, not her relationship with Rene.

 

Just my take, anyway.

I'm trying to think about people who don't really follow Céline that much but do like her enough to go see her show.

Probably people around her age who like some of her big songs but don't know the more obscure ones. They pay big money for good seats and then see Céline coming out with short pants and long white sporty socks. Shock!! They had never seen her that way!!!

 

And then she starts to rap on THLAL. Shock 2! For us, it's great and we want more, but these casual "fans" are so stunned they don't really know how to react. That could explain some of the cooler audience during the first show. But we fans can't even imagine people not enjoying this "new" Céline. But I have news for you... some people don't get out of their confort zone that easily. That could also be PART of the reason a setlist gets adjusted. Who knows. But I'm sure her team got some feedback and reacted to it...

Let's see what happens in London but keep cool, alright?

Well, I've been compared to President Trump. That's a new one. Any validity those had who compared me to him is now out the window.

 

First of all, I highly doubt Celine would be shattered and hurt if she saw my one tweet with the hashtag "#Fail." If she were to be, she is far more hypersensitive than I thought.

 

Second of all, if you take the time to look at my tweets, you'll see plenty of praise for Celine, including about this tour.

 

And third, like it or not, part of social media is supposed to be a medium to connect with people. "Social" is part of the term, after all. If Celine (or more likely her team) can't handle the good AND the bad on there, they should just close her Twitter page.

I couldn`t agree more. I am in love with her performance of this song. She does sound incredible! I also observe that for her it must be quite difficult to sing this song, due to the fact that she came out about her relationship with Rene with this song, it was also played at her wedding. For her it must be quite touching!

[chocolatechip15]

Also, can we all be civil to each other? There's always going to be discussion and disagreement on a forum, but some of these posts lately seem to be turning somewhat personal.

 

If a particular person's posts drive you crazy, I think there's an Ignore button somewhere so you won't see them. But please don't be mean. Celine wouldn't want it!

My two cents about the show:

 

Of course the show will include some songs from Vegas... it's about her hits. People wants to hear the songs they know from her, not a boring ballad from 1994 that no one other than really hardcore fans know. We still have 11 songs that are not performed in VEGAS, or at least, not in their current version: Taking Chances, Loved Me Back to Life, That's The Way It Is, I'm Alive, Think Twice, The Colour Of My Love, Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore, I Drove All Night, The Reason, Refuse To Dance, Love Is All We Need.

 

She is still singing all of her show live, other than a few exceptions. Songs such as I Drove All Night, The Reason or My Heart Will Go On are performed 100% live.

 

She is finally doing half of the show with uptempo numbers!!

 

And she decides the setlist. She'll sing LCMM until she dies, no matter if you like it or not.

 

Don't forget something: her French shows are much better

 

Personally, I would add Immortality, A New Day Has Come (in the place of Taking Chances) and I Surrender. Even if the last one is playback, it is f****** epic and the audience goes crazy for this one.

 

So folks, relax, have a beer, and listen to some Celine videos

[mirage]

True,most of them only have FIY in their collection and only know the ballads

I think that on first show Celine was very happy, energetic and smiles to many times but on the secend show was more serious and concentrate don't have to much funn like on the first night, she seems to be little sad, maybe don't feel good or maye the public was no interact with her. I'm so happy if I'm wrong. It's only my observation from many video on you tube.

[Naiomi zhannah]

Some of these die hard fans(Facebook) need to chill or relax bashing Celine is not going to help anyway. Saying this tour sucks and etc.. And some of these people haven't even gone to the concert yet.

[brandon_vincent]

Same old story- bye bye anticipation and excited forum and welcome moaning and bitching forum

 

And yes everyone to their own opinion etc, but I've just read 3 pages of well...

My only thought was "here we go again "

 

Right!! People are getting rude and I appreciate those of us who are classy on this forum!! Why would someone put a #celinefails??

It's about her relationship with the public and her career, not with Rene. (obviously, Rene is a big part of her career, so it's not inextricable,but the song doesn't seem to really be about him).

 

 

Also, Linda Perry herself said: "'My Love' is about her relationships with fans, herself, her record label, and how she will do anything it takes to win you over: If I give you everything, will you do the same for me? It sounds like a love song but it's really not." http://www.celinedionforum.com/topic/41959-linda-perry-unpublished-quotes-about-my-love/

 

Linda didn't intend for it to be Rene, and I don't think Celine does, either.

Come on guys.... more humor, less quarreling

 

I am so happy about Love of my life......it´s a wonderful, beautiful song...by Freddie and now by Céline...I was not expecting that!!

 

I love his version with Brian May, 1981, Rock at Montreal

Yes, Céline IS hypersensitive so don't be mean to Céline or you'll hear from me!

Discontent can be expressed but in a nice way. Bitching on social media about being pissed is not very nice, hypersensitive or not.

It's almost like bullying in my opinion. Anyway, let's enjoy some Céline peace until the next show at least...

I know! I am blown away that she chose to include it. I haven't thought of that song in forever, much less listened to it. Beautiful, touching lyrics. I can't stop repeating it.

The hurry back, hurry back lyric line..... :cry: :wub:

[homerton]

Had an email form Viagogo regarding Manchester. They say no refund as tickets will be valid for Leeds. What is going on? I am fuming with Celine's Management. £360 seems to matter little to her team!

[ivo]

The cutting of songs was totally expected for me, the show the first night was amazing, but I think it was a little too long for Celine. The setlist we had the second concert of the tour is still amazing. I think we could not wish for more for this tour. I know some casual fans that are goinig to the show and they want to hear the songs they know. This setlist is very good. Off course the die hard fans want to hear rarities, but it would be totally dumb if Celine would replace hits with rarities that no one know.

 

I am going to enjoy this setlist tot the maximum next friday!

I know! The lyrics are so beautiful ! Curious though, to find out how this came about. I mean we all know that she is a Freddy and Queen fan, but why did she decide to sing it? And she does it with feeling, very emotional. I am just glad she did it! The whole song just gets to me!

[Javito]

Talking about disappointment... You really want some drama? I mean real DRAMA??! Check out this video, and the comments below. I'm having a ball reading them :mdr:

 

THIS VIDEO :in_love:

Needless to say I ADORE it. The whole thing of it. I could play this segment on a loop 24 hours But I can't believe the prudish out there who get scandalised about Celine imitating MJ. What's sad is that they seem to forget/ignore that Celine already imitated Michael in 1987 an she already took her hand down there back then! And the world kept revolving since then! )

viagogo said no refunds as it was rescheduled, so have we lost our money?

[CelineDionFreak]

The opening is Bach. Amazing piece!

Okay how did I not know this! I've played Bach symphonic pieces multiple times in my life. I feel like I should've known this
