Céline on Billboard Music Awards - May 21st, 2017

[flutefreak]

I hope we get a new pic of Cher and Celine together!!

[stevo]

Big late 90s revival

[incognito]

 

 

I...was there!

 

And I still hate you.

[celinesounds]

I hope she goes for head voice in the introduction or end of the song. Anything close to the intro of this performance can make BMA history!

definitely that is the best live version ever of MHWGO

[SuperLove4Celine]

 

It's true though... I love Cher too. Got all her albums. Even I Paralyse on vinyl cos it isn't released on CD. she has sooooo many amazing songs yet her setlist is about 70% the same as the Believe tour.

 

I don't know when the music / concert industry changed to make singers sing the same songs over and over again instead of new music... but it sucks

I would LOVE a live version of "Sirens" or "Still."

I hope we get a double whammy and Céline presents Cher with her Icon Award- from one to the other! ⭐️

[jpatdeleon09]

If she'll sing My Heart Will Go On.. She will wear a gown, right?

 

Another moment to wait!

Oh yeah! I'd say, without a doubt, that it will be epic.

You know she's singing MHWGO, right?

(i.e. the antithesis of "something special" as they say in the promo!)

You are the beacon of positivity!

Oh come on. We all know it does nothing to dispel the general public belief that she's done nothing of worth since!

Wasted opportunity to showcase something different / new.

But I'm guessing they're only doing a Titanic tribute in the first place because the show is in Vegas and they know they can get Celine.

The public are quite happy with what she does/has done and am pretty sure it'll get huge praise. I just hope she nails it.

So... they more or less invited her by commitment, right?

 

I think her present moment (and Encore un soir Era) is so underrated, anyway...

Believe and MHWGO were the two biggest songs in 1997 (I think)...

Viewers will think they are airing an old BBA show and change channels!!

Believe was 1999

Was it? I thought one year Believe had surpassed MHWGO in sales in the last few weeks before the cut-off period...

But I do have a bad memory... as I have a lot more "content" to remember than most of the "kids" here!

Cher wanted to record an album like LTAL with songs like MHWGO because it was massive and she loves celine. Can't remember if it was her record company or what but she was given Believe and told she should do an album like that - she did. And it was definitely the right choice for Cher!

"Believe" came out In October of 1998, and didn't even enter the top 40 until January 1999, hitting number 1 in March.

[Xpresso]

I Believe you are correct.

[isurrender]

It can be smth special if it's another version...but I doubt it.

 

Céline is the only one that I know with a 20 year old hit sounding the same as when it was out.

 

The highest disappointment would be a remix of Believe live by Cher and an old lipping MHWGO version by Céline.

 

Oh well...

[stevo]

Cher will likely mime Believe, as she usually does Edited May 7, 2017 at 08:51 PM by stevo

That medley was so great and different,and i like that my heart will go on was part of it and not the final,they even added some new instruments to it ,they could change the boring acoustic version in vegas with that one Edited May 7, 2017 at 09:21 PM by artistman2007

Did The Bodyguard get a similar recognition? Its impact on Billboard chart was stronger: IWALY topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 14 weeks (MHWGO only 2), The Bodyguard OST spent 20 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200 while Titanic OST "only" 16. Of course, MHWGO and Titanic are the force behind some 75 million records sold worldwide (30 million for both LTAL and the OST, plus 15 million of the single).

 

The only reason why Celine should be there is Billboard recognizing her residency as the most successful ever according to their boxscore chart.

The Bodyguard probably didn't get the recognition because Whitney Houston was well.. not doing so well in her private life. I don't think she could ever have sung that song live like she did in 1992.

 

And she passed away exactly 20 years after The Bodyguard was released.

Like Celine sang MHWGO live so many times since 2003

Oh that's very cool! I didn't know that!

 

Believe and MHWGO were the two biggest songs in 1997 (I think)...

 

MHWGO wasn't a hit until 98... My Heart Will Go On" was released in Australia and Germany on December 8, 1997, and in the rest of the world in January and February 1998.

The reason (ha!) MHWGO didn't chart longer at number one, is because Sony was more interested in selling LTAL and/or the Titanic soundtrack. They only produced a small amount of singles of MHWGO for the USA market. Once they were gone, people were "forced" to buy the album instead.
