Celine should have sung BYLM and TTWII. Her voice is in great shape. Love her

Sorry but RDMH is terrible .

I did like the vocals for RDMH. She sang the song mostly free of the Ad libs thankfully, and the end note was perfect!

2:25 just WOW!!!!

[CSCfan]

While the performance itself was a bit lifeless (coz of her back of course), IMO this was one of the best RDMH performances vocally in a while now. Mainly coz she sticked to the original lines, but also coz she only had to concentrate on her vocals and not her movement and it shows in the song.

Wish I could say the contrary, but I'm afraid Céline's standards on her shows have also been lowered in the last years, and for many reasons which I won't repeat here now and not today. We all know those reasons, and I'm not talking about how good/regular she still belts her songs (which is arguable too).

 

I don't post often eventhough I'm on this thread a lot. I usually agree with Javito BUT I'm sorry, Mariah's performance was sub-par at best, cold or no cold. She clearly cannot hit any of her old notes, let alone sing in her old register. Sorry for the bitchy comment, but she's such a Diva I can't stand her anymore. "They said there would be hot tea???" If she could still sing, I'd forgive her more but her voice is OVAH!

 

My take on last night is that Celine was promoting her Las Vegas gig, nothing more, nothing less. We all wish Celine would do more in terms of promotion but she ain't gonna change. She's a 50 year old (has-been) artist riding the wave as much as possible. I know that's hard to accept but for those who were there from the beginning, her time has passed.

 

And even in her prime, Celine never fully took charge of her image or her artistry like some of her contemporaries. She ain't about to change now.

 

Enjoy what you get from Celine on the American side and keep hoping for amazing material on the French side 😀

 

Happy New Year!

'Has been'. Wow, never heard Celine described as that before and the shows I attended over the summer would certainly contradict that theory. She's a mature artist who is still performing at her best at the age of nearly 50 and is still phenomenally popular.

Wow. You “don’t post often,” but you decided to come out of the woodwork to disparage both Mariah and Céline?

[celinesounds]

I think Mariah did a great job, she was amazing, she was sober

 

besides it was live

"Has been"???? 'what is going on here lol

 

There has been some harsh comments and criticism of Celine through the years, but I must say this one takes the cake!

 

What "has been" do you know that can can STILL sellout massive crowds around the world, or even nightly sell out her own 4200 seat room that was built for her 15 years ago?

 

A HASBEEN is somebody who the public could careless about, Celine is far from that she's actually the opposite she's still at age 50 a force in the business that she's in and is without a doubt one a very few LIVING LEGENDS!

 

Therefore, a legend will never be irrelevant or a "has been".

Her performance of RDMH on December 30th was absolutely amazing. Her big note (The F5) was absolutely amazing. Even better than the November performance. I think that it was because she was resting

[Shamrock_1982]

These NYE appearances are always boring and so bloody cheesy... for who she is now a days ( in the last year ) and the evolution in other areas of her life it just tacky/dated when done in this way... give it a miss next year C unless it’s something amazing or simply different.

 

Nothing but love, but simply my feedback

And this is why I don't post often. I should have known that I would have gotten massacred on this forum.

 

First and foremost, Celine has been my idol before most of you were born. There's no denying that she is a legend and can sing circles around Mariah and others. And for those who take offense to my Mariah comment, you are on the wrong forum. Just google her today and see how much the internet is making fun of her "diva" status.

 

I used the word has been not in a criticial way but as a fact of an older artist whose best days are behind her, like Madonna, Barbara and others. Everyone artist's career peaks.

 

Thank God she still puts out some great French music even if some of the best singles are not released by her record company.

Maybe "has been" was just the wrong term. Because a has been is someone who had a peak, but then went down a wrong path career-wise, causing their public to abandon their fandom.

Of course, her peak is over nobody is saying otherwise. She's the legend that she is today because of 90s where her peak was. If you would have explained that way nobody would have disagreed. To use the word "has-been" tho is where you went wrong. Even Mariah who can't sit next to Celine in 2018 isn't a has-been. In order to achieve "has-been" status she would have no longer be able to have any buzz around her, she would have to no longer fill and sell out shows, she would no longer have stories or magazine articles written about her, because people would simply no longer care about her, and people do. Radios may no longer care, but in general Celine is still very much in demand.

[Javito]

And back with the peak discussion LOL

 

So today here's the discussion whether she is an "is" or a "has been", and some openly accepting that her best days are over. Well now I go back to my point and ask: if she wasn't still at her peak in 2002 BEFORE entering Vegas (the start of her "has been" era), then what was she living in her career still in year 2002 compared to nowadays? Big lol

Is Celine a "has-been" Javito? If her Vegas show has done anything at all it has proved just how much in "demand" she is. I know you hate her show in Vegas but for goodness sake at least admit what she has done there and continues to do there is INCREDIBLE!

We really hope so, with the next new album. That is going to be her acid test in the music industry. Let's hope she doesn't put them to test with her "I don't have nothing to prove anymore" mantra, because she does. An artist always does, especially if you take 5 years to release and album. At least pretend this time you DO care about it when going to TV and on tour

No I didn't say that! My reply wasn't addressed to you btw, or anyone in particular. I was just shocked that term "has been" was brought up today . I'd never say Celine is a "has-been" singer. But I was tying together this with the ongoing discussion the other day, some saying her peak time in 2002 had already passed. Well it's only TODAY we can clearly and certainly say she's no longuer at her peak, but 2002, or 2003 years??? Compared to the point of her career in which she's today, 2002/2003 were two of a whirlwind years, I say more, they were pivotal and defining years in her career, being her name everywhere -and more importantly, for her music (not thanks to Fashion weeks in Paris or Vogue like in 2017), and also because of the new step in her career she was about to start in Vegas, which I admit, it was heavily anticipated and promoted too everywhere in each and every interview she did in 2002.

 

There's a turning point in her career before and after 2003, there's no question about that. But from 1998 to 2002, her fame and popularity remained intact all the time, despite taking a break! That time in her career was really incredible.

 

If she wasn't at her peak in 2001, that even while on break the US TV industry called her to participate on the 11-S telethons and sing live, being a canadian and not an American singer, knowing she was on a break and retired!! If that doesn't happen to someone at the peak of her career, I don't know what the concept of a peak is anymore lol.

Celine's vocals on RDMH were amazing i quite enjoyed that!

 

Mariah's performance was good for her standards.

 

The wvoice was mesmering, and the editing of the video was really Okay, musicians standing up, smiling as well as her chorus and Band, lightings... It was a nice performance knowing that she was suffering as hell...Wonder woman is still on...

I can agree with you on that. 2002-2003 were pivotal years in her career.

[isurrender]

Her voice was really in a good shape! So good to have a good performance of it without being edited. 😀

Well, I think Céline's motivation for extensive promotion is very limited. She always emphasizes that she wants to be the best mom possible. And for my turn she doesn't have to promote extensively. She reached every goal, a singer can reach. She's got nothing to prove anymore. I'm her fan since 1988. And at that time she had already a long career running. Most of her life was dictated by the showbusiness ... now should be more time for her to live outside the spotlight and raise her beloved children.

I thought the performance from Celine sucked. It was what I expected....no surprise there. I love her as a person and as an artist. I just wish she would do something even a tiny bit different. Ugh! Maybe this summer she will spice things up again.

[Xpresso]

I think Céline's life is now very well balanced and that's how she wants it.

There might be some promo when she releases her album but obviously not the way she did in her early years or when she was at her peak (and I don't care what year that was exactly )

Same here.

[manu23]

If the top grossing female act of the year would come here and read the “has been” comment she would laugh her #ss off

[Xpresso]

She would probably say "Where's my hot tea!!??"

[browseceline]

Sorry but that was not amazing. Cold or not cold..she cannot deliver those notes anymore and she is probably used to delivering her songs lipped but since she painfully failed last year she had to do it right this time. I think from what i heard Celine still has it and Mariah lost most of her vocal talent. Plus Celine is humble and kind. Mariah is a cold diva imo.

I for one have to say that I admire Celine very much. I admire her above all as a role model . She is now at a point in her life where her career is no longer her top priority. She has said many times that her kids are her main focus.( especially now that she is a single parent). In the past the only life that she knew was her professional life. Everything was done to and for her career. She didnt speak, she didnt go out, she toured like crazy, in fact she had no personal life.( My god she stopped her honeymoon to go do promo) Yes it paid off, but now its obvious that she is at a different place in her life. Vegas is not only her house, but it is her home. She can raise her 3 boys with as much normality as possible.(RC moved to Vegas when he was a baby. The twins are growing up in Vegas) She still enjoys performing and showbusiness, but now its totally different.She will continue to tour, to record and to promote her albums, to do her shows, but now she will do it when and how she wants to.As long as it doesnt interfere with her personal life, because now she has one. A performer with her track record, who has given and achieved so much , totally deserves it. I totally support her and whatever she gives us is more than fine with me!
