Celine performs at Barclaycard presents BST Hyde Park concerts 2019

[stevo]

I don’t know why but the thought of her and Babs duetting or performing this song doesn’t excite me at all. I know the song is one of her most important oldies but just doesn’t get my juices going. Nor does Barbrella

it does to me though it's over due for decades lol

but i would say the thought probably won't be as excited when you r there in person

i think probably due to the song maybe but we will see

i do hope there's surprise though big one!

 

but i can say on here that the orchestra will be there! talked to someone from the orchestra so yeah

[mirage]

I'm still hoping that one day I will attend a show with lots of crazy fans like us.

 

And that the first song we will hear is Then You Look At Me

Stage completely dark, the intro of TYLAM starts.

I think we all would go crazy

In regards to the whole will there/won’t there “Tell Him” discussion...I’m actually wondering whether or not Celine could sing it today. She lipped it back in the day during the LTAL tour so why do we think she could sing it live 20 years later? My only thought is that, if she were to appear at Bab’s concert, it would be the only song she’d have to sing that day rather than attempt it during a 2 to 2 1/2 hour show of her own.

 

I feel that for the LTAL tour it was more due to her huge schedule. I mean back then she was lipping stuff like DOL even in its lowered key and yet she attempted it in 2011 no problem

even treat her like a lady was also lipped, and in 2017 (+2012 jamaica with somehow live adlibs) it was fully live, misled too, lipped in the 90´s, live in 2017...

I think she could sing tell him, but maybe with a semitone or full tone lowered...,one has to think of Streisand´s age and vocal condition too. But I think it would be epic, even it would be lowered, just two legends nailing a legendary song

But I'm sure you'd be fine if Celine sings Tell Him with Maluma…

She could sing The Teletubbies theme tune with Maluma and it would be great

[celinefanonline]

btw now there's no more diamond circle left

[mirage]

2 months left!

[ordinary fan]

can´t wait, I´m excited, although I can´t be there unfortunately. It will be amazing

Does anyone who normally attends this festival know when we’re likely to have more support acts announced? Florence and the Machine have a bunch of other acts already and Celine and Babs only have 2.

[Dion2000]

I presume they only need 2. Their set ups may differ in that their acts may not begin to 4 or 5 PM rather than all day

But there are 3 different stages and all are supposed to have different acts throughout the day. Plus Celine said in that one interview (with the guy who made her bangers and mash) that she expected to have 4 of 5 opening acts.

On the official ticket page, it still says PLUS MORE TO BE ANNOUNCED... they gotta hurry though!

Well yes of course, but I remember reading that the priority gates for Celine didnt open until 2pm, later than most. So that would explain the lack of guests if each support set is 30 minutes and has like hour long breaks in between

Right?! Tick tock, tick tock, people!

I have the BST app which shows the lineup for last summer. Other artists didn’t begin until 2:30pm and they have 7-11 different acts across three stages so I’m expecting, with the main artist not going on until 8 or 8:30, that definitely leaves time for at least 3 support acts on the main stage, let alone the other two! I wonder if they’re having difficulty finding artists? Are they being super choosy about who to invite? There’s only 2 months left to go.

[CSCfan]

Could be anything really... they could still be sorting out stuff with someone big. Or they just have everything timed and waiting for certain moments.

In Dan Wootton's interview, Céline mentioned having "4 or 5 guests" (while looking to her team), so they'll probably announce at least 1 more guest soon..

[celinefanonline]

Can u imagine they got Mariah to open for Celine lol hahaha

Anyway it would be great & amazing if they can get Lara fabian, Delta Goodrem or some contemporary / crossover singers

Was Steps a big deal in the UK? I've never heard of them until Claire came up as an opener for Celine, but that's what the bulk of the above interview is about.

[Dancing_Queen]

Steps was pretty big in (western?) Europe for a year or two, then they disappeared.

The came out around the time when I really started getting into music ('97-'98). They had this Abba vibe going and I loved them. Can still name all the members (filed away in the 'useless music trivia from the late nineties cabinet' of my brain 😂).

 

'Last thing on my mind' was their biggest hit and is still played by radio stations on a near daily basis. Always thought Claire was the most talented singer from the group.

 

By the way, when I told my dad that Claire was doing BST, he completely shocked me by knowing her entire backstory and what she's been up to since Steps. So for a band that basically had 2 hits, they are pretty well-known. 😂

It was pretty big in south east asia for a short time, I use to like their songs. Edited May 10, 2019 at 06:49 AM by gafsa

So, I also had never heard of Steps. Or Claire. Because she’s opening for Celine, I bought her solo CD that was released a few months ago and I freakin’ love it. There’s not a song on the album that I don’t like - it’s very Colour of My Love/Falling Into You Celine era. Researching further, I saw that in her concerts she sings a couple of stripped down versions of Steps hits so I bought those as well.

 

I have now become OBSESSED with Steps. It’s super cheesy bubblegum pop like ABBA or Ace of Base. A genre of music that I call “I’m devastated but I’m DANCIN’!” I feel a little embarrassed about this - totally a guilty pleasure. But I mean, I have watched their reality TV show where the got band back together in 2012. I’ve watched concerts on YouTube. I have yet to buy their 2017 CD - am holding myself back and saving something for later.

 

They definitely had more than 2 hits (as someone else mentioned above) - they had a string of, I believe, 10 consecutive top 10 hits in the UK. Look them up on wikipedia. Sorry for the slightly off-topic. It *is* about the BST concert, just not Celine. I, for one, can’t wait to hear Claire sing stuff from her solo album and, if she in any way brings out Steps with her for a song or two, I’m afraid that I’m going to lose my s*** like I’m a teenager.
