Courage World Tour - EU shows CANCELED

[Alex_Incognito]

I did record the whole audio of the show. It didn't turn out too bad actually.

Also did a few videos of some of my favorite songs: TTWII, IYAMT, TLBSEPT, C, TP, LD

Nope, not one of those fans. She gave me enough with the show.

Just got back to my hotel. Review later. On such a high

 

Same here I don’t know how I will sleep tonight . Someone spilled water on my tour program ... had to buy a new one

[Danystar]

Does she still sing I drove all night before the intro?

Yes, the crows lit up and then intro started . It was amazing

[brisbaneboy]

 

 

I think shes on fire every single night LOL. When I attended the show in Cleveland I remember thinking myself crazy how much better live she is than any video bootleg or video portrays.

 

She has so much power in her voice still! Best shes sounded in years!

 

Watch youll actually enjoy Youre the voice even if you think beforehand that you wouldnt.... she made me eat my words on that one.

 

I agree on all this. Having seen the set list and bootlegs for her Aussie tour last year my excitement was slightly less (but still super happy to see her) but when you’re in there with the crowd energy and the depth of her voice... it was insanely amazing and emotional. Even songs she has done a billion times got such epic reactions. For someone with mostly ballads she has great stage presence!

I’ve heard “Lying Down” was pretty bad last night. Did she use falsetto on the D5 in the climax?

I thought it sounded great

[AdrienneM]

From what i could see on Instagram she did indeed sound great. However. i wonder when she will remember shes entirely forgot the sustained belt in TTWII

[Critiaslux]

 

 

Enjoy the show. Seeing the show live will actually make you enjoy the show even if you hate the “You’re The Voice” ( like I do) etc. lol

 

She always has that way of making us eat it all up!

 

Because she is not only A voice but as well A performer 🙂

I get to see her tomorrow in kc super happy

I was at the Cincinnati show last night. I kept my eyes off of the forum so that I could be surprised by the setlist and know the exact running order of it - even though I’d seen opening night in Quebec so I knew half the songs. I wondered if there were be any added songs from the new album but, since it hasn’t even been released yet, I knew that was a long shot. (I’ll be seeing her in NYC where I live and will be curious to see if they add another songs and some of the songs in the set list feel like place-fillers until the album is out.) My best friend lives in Cincinnati and she’s not a die hard fan. She enjoys Celine well enough but is definitely a casual fan (doesn’t own any of her CD’s as far as know - maybe All The Way)

 

IACBTMN - just as in Quebec, it’s a fantastic opener. The opening line as she comes out of the trapdoor gives me goosebumps. Just like with her 2017/2018 tour, Vegas since IS was added, and IDAN in the TCWT, Celine clearly likes to open with a song that she lips. I think she’s just as nervous as any other performer who goes out on stage and lipping the first number helps her get used to the crowd and the stage and have an opening number that slays. My casual fan friend said that’s her favorite song of hers and thought it was an awesome choice to start the concert - it made it a “big” opening.

 

TTWII/IA - I was surprised to have these two together just like the 2018 tour/Vegas but they work great together. They’re two of her well-known uptempo songs and the audience around were on their feet clapping and singing along. (I was fourth row on the floor - we all pretty much stood the entire show.)

 

IYAMT - My casual friend immediately exclaimed “Wow! That’s an oldie.” Love that Celine lowered the key so she could sing it live - it didn’t sound weird at all being lowered. It sounded like IYAMT and it was a fun throw back to my/our college years.

 

TPOL - Crowd favorite - everyone went bonkers. It’s in a good spot in the show

 

LCMM - this feels like a place holder to me. When the new album is out, I expect this song to be gone and be replaced with an uptempo from Courage. Especially since they kept it shortened. However, when I said as much to my causal friend on our way home, she said “Well, I’m certainly glad she did it tonight. That’s always been one of my favorite songs of hers. I would’ve missed it if it wasn’t there.”

 

BATB - a classic. She slays it. It’s heartwarming and brings us all back in time. The casual fan doesn’t enjoy it though and could’ve done without.

 

TP - same thing with The Prayer. Casual fan never really liked that song. It’s another one I see as a place holder until Courage is out and I expect it to be replaced with a new song.

 

YTV - it’s a great, fun, uptempo song. I’ll love it. I love the sing along portion with it. Celine clearly loves singing it. It’s a highlight of the show for me and I hope it sticks around for the entire tour. It’s also the closest Celine has gotten to singing any “political” song and I say bravo for her to singing a song about guns and gun violence in America at this time. I actually think that takes “courage.”

 

Courage - is amazing live. The causal fan with me thought it was a beautiful song and said she was absolutely floored by it. (She’s recently lost her father so I imagine it hit her hard in all the feels.) I love that song - it’s probably my favorite of the 4 tracks we have. It’s so personal for Celine and listening to it is just heart-breaking and incredibly moving.

 

TYLM - one of my most favorite Celine songs. Everyone around me was singing along to it. If I didn’t know she was lipping it, I would’ve never suspected it last night. It appeared to be totally live and she slays it. That being said, this is something else that I hope is a place holder and will be replaced with a new song from Courage.

 

ABM - It’s got to be in the set list. Everyone around me ate it up including my casual fan friend.

 

LD - I loved it. Casual fan said she had a difficult time understanding the lyrics. I agree - I had to look up the lyrics online to figure out what she was singing in the verses.

 

TLB - I can’t believe she had the courage to keep this as part of the English set list tour. It absolutely slays. People around me were really into it. My causal fan friend thought her vocals were insane and the entire band rocked during that number. Definitely a highlight for her.

 

BYLM - Right before this started, I had literally thought to myself “Jesus, what on Earth does she have left to sing at this point?” And that started and I went “Oh my God of course!” Casual fan friend loved it as it’s one of Celine’s biggest and well-known hits.

 

The Medley - sorry haters, but it works and it works WELL. Most of the audience as my age (47) older. So we’re all around Celine’s age and we all grew up with Let’s Dance, Another One Bites The Dust, Lady Marmelade, etc. Every one was dancing, singing along - it was totally like we were all at a party at that point. Casual friend said it just went prove to Celine can sing anything and mentioned how much she LOVES River Deep, Mountain High. She said “I mean, I love the song when Tina sings it but Celine just take it to a whole new level. It’s amazing. I could listen to her sing that all night.”

 

MHWGO - The drones truly are stunning. Casual fan friend is a techie in the theater world and she was blown away during the number constantly vocalizing “Oh wow” and “How freaking cool is that?”

 

Imagine - a perfect ending. Another bit of a political statement from Celine. Casual fan friend thought it was a perfect way to leave the night and thought Celine slayed the song - she became very emotional.

 

All in all, this is a fantastic tour. As others have said watching it on YouTube videos in no way lets you know what the show is like. Live - this tour is a killer and I predict she’s going to continue to get rave reviews across the country as it goes on.

 

See ya in February, Celine!

ow about giving us full titles not only initials of the songs?

That s the song she still struggles to sing. I mean it got better and she is still doing quite a good job but it s like somehow I feel a bit for her when watching/listening to her. On this specific POP songs I wish they would incorporate some vocal layers, some mixing so it could sound fuller as a pop song and she could rely on that a bit more for her vocals.

[CSCfan]

From the videos I saw, she was in a very good mood and her voice was really good! I kinda felt she was playing it safe a bit, but I really loved how she sang TTWII and IYAMT!

 

And something else happened...... until yesterday, she was using a Shure microphone, but yesterday she used a Sennheiser. Pretty odd to switch to a different brand during a tour (as it requires also to change gear and then there’s a thing called sponsoring)..

Yeah... no one thought it was

I think the following 3 realistic changes could turn the setlist from OK to GREAT (in my eyes):

 

- Open with FOMO (lipped but original key)

- End the show with "Courage"

- Replace the medley with this medley: "Love Can Move Mountains", "Misled", "Just a Little Bit of Love", "Make You Happy", "River Deep, Mountain High"

 

Of course, add more songs from the new album after it's released and make the necessary changes to the positions of the songs in order to accommodate these changes.

[isurrender]

It's funny the situation I'm in.

 

I'm caught between Kelly Clarkson who sings a new song ( even though it's a cover) almost every day on her show and I think it's kinda boring ( all those random covers just like she is a random karaoke singer... ) and Céline who doesn't sing anything new at all.

 

It's all or nothing. Weird 😄😄😄🤷

I noticed a woman specifically tasked to sign all the songs throughout the concert! That's amazing.

Are you new to the forum? We don’t take the time to type out song titles. We all know what BYLM, IACBTMN, TTWII, MHWGO, TP, etc. mean.

[CelineTheBest5]

Did she sing the reason?
