Nmj Posted April 26, 2021 at 02:11 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 02:11 PM Frankly no one goes to her shows to hear her backup singers. And she does have some of the best in the industry. But I certainly don't care to hear solos from any one of them. They're there to back her up and they do a good job at taht. I've never understood the fan adoration for them. We've learned that none of her band members are indispensable. Well, except Pepe. . I agree, PLUS they get a pretty much enough time to shine, every time she sings LCMM. I mean look what she finally did, of course another performance of Andrea Via screen to sing “The Prayer” with her again is so emotionless, he’s great and of course he can’t be touring with her to sing it live each and every night with her so she decided to sing the song “solo” and it was one a few highlights of the show for me, along with “Thats The away It Is”, “If you asked me to” and “Tous les blues sont écrits pour toi”. Please give BATB a rest, and no Barnev solos during interludes, they should be creative with something else when Celine is offstage. Quote

I want to see the full version of this show. It was on YouTube before and it was by parts but not full Edited April 26, 2021 at 02:30 PM by jpatdeleon09 Quote
Alex_Incognito Posted April 26, 2021 at 02:46 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 02:46 PM Her doing "The Prayer" solo is one of, if not, the best thing about the Courage tour. She is so amazing during it. 7 Quote "People pay 20-25 dollars to see you."- Céline Dion, 1990

We've learned that none of her band members are indispensable. Well, except Pepe. . I was talking about duets with her female back up. Maybe alternate the Barnev duet with a female duet. Barnev during the first part of the tour then maybe Elise in the next. Just one duet, that's not asking too much. I don't think that will hurt. I mean, let's say I can't stand elise's singing. I'd still rather endure her singing just as long as we get to hear Celine sing, maybe, Tell Him... Than not hear Tell Him at all. Now, the back up as solos, that's a totally different story.

stevo Posted April 26, 2021 at 05:25 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 05:25 PM (edited) And I’m gonna start the age old argument- absolutely no covers. They’re just unnecessary. She has so many of her own songs. Why why why why must she do covers? People pay $500 to see a CELINE DION show to hear CELINE DION songs. I’m so terrified they’ll shoe-horn the Courage medley in in this new show. Just because that’s what they do. Like with Hyde Park BST- we knew it would be the Vegas show. For a one off special event, they couldn’t come in and present a new set list. No wonder she’s bored I’m a dejected fan and I want her to surprise me Edited April 26, 2021 at 05:26 PM by stevo 6 Quote
Nmj Posted April 26, 2021 at 05:26 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 05:26 PM (edited) Here’s my artistic yet “realistic” setlist for the new Vegas show ( que all the setlist haters) 1.Long intro leading into.... The Reason2. The Power Of Love3. I Drove All Night4. Imperfections Wardrobe change/ Interlude5. FULL version of...It’s All Coming Back To Me Now6. Ashes7. If You Asked Me To8. Where Does My Heart Beat Now9. Falling In Love AgainWardrobe change/ interlude 10. Long intro into.... I Surrender*** Speech about a medley of songs that she chose because she feels they never got their moment to shine or a speech about the songs which aren’t always what they call “hits”, but means something to her since she “chose them”11. Medley of.... Stand By Your Side, The Greatest Reward, If We Could Start Over Again, Thank You. Courage.12. Nothings Broken But My Heart13. Think Twice14. All By MyselfWardrobe Change/ Interlude15. How Did You Get Here16. That’s The Way It Is17. A New Day Has Come (Radio Remix)Wardrobe Change/ Interlude18. Long intro into... Halfway To Heaven19. Because You Loved Me20. My Heart Will Go On21. Final Encore——— Perfect Goodbye. I think this a great/ and doable example of a GREAT setlist(in my opinion lol) and it was done without LCMM, RDMH, BATB, And any pointless cover songs) Edited April 26, 2021 at 05:31 PM by Nmj 1 Quote
SuperLove4Celine Posted April 26, 2021 at 06:59 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 06:59 PM So, an idea came to me this morning while thinking of this new, upcoming residency. We have all bemoaned the fact Celine's uptempo numbers tend to lack "oomph" when it comes time for them to be performed live onstage. Well, how about this...Commission the new residency DJ's, Zedd & Tiesto, to create remixes for some of her mid to uptempo singles. These new arrangements would be created to compliment the live band onstage. A few examples with remix titles that came to me are the following: - That's The Way It Is (Zedd's "Want It The Most" Remix)- I'm Alive (Tiesto's "Call On Me" Mix)- Unison (Tiesto's "Come Alive" Remix)- Misled (Zedd's "9 to 5" Mix) [would require Celine to sing this song in full]- I Drove All Night (Zedd's "Dying To Get To You" Remix)- Eyes On Me (Tiesto's "Devil Inside" Mix)- Loved Me Back To Life (Zedd's "Catatonia" Remix)- Imperfections (Tiesto's "Love Myself" Mix) By utilizing Zedd and Tiesto, it would help create even more synergy with the headliners at Resorts World. If they wanted, they could even incorporate Katy, Carrie and Luke into the show somehow, all while incorporating Celine into their shows, too. 5 Quote

Even if it's only really a few songs, it would still add to the show. Assuming they're comfortable doing so, I also wouldn't mind a duet with Elise or Dawn. It'd be great to integrate them more into show and be something different they haven't done. Quote ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life.

Kyle_Jared Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:10 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:10 PM (edited) I'm so afraid they're going to rehash everything they've already done. She has so many songs that have not been sung in years or ever but get some pretty good streams which show they are fan favourites on albums. You KNOW she is going to do the hits, I'd say pick your big five -six hits in states, ones casual fans will want to hear: I'd do these six. 1. Power of Love2. It's All Coming Back to me Now.3. Because you loved me.4. All By Myself.5. I Drove All Night.6. My Heart will go on. THEN I'd add these through the show and in-between the above Only One RoadMisledNothing Broken But my HeartIf There Was (any other way)A New Day Has Come (Radio Remix)When I need youTell him (virtual duet with Barbra Streisand)Somebody Loves SomebodyWater and a FlameCall the ManImperfectionsNew song Edited April 26, 2021 at 10:12 PM by Kyle_Jared 2 Quote
Nmj Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:23 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:23 PM I wish they’d add a choir for a few numbers.... like “Call The Man”, “Thankful”, “Prayer”, etc.... I'd even stomach LCMM again, if she sang it properly without all the adlibs and bring in a choir like she did in South Africa for the TCWT. Honestly I’m just hoping the two main things1. She keeps the covers/tributes VERY limited (1-2 songs max) preferably 0 lol.2. She ends that stale ending of LCMM/RDMH....”thank you, goodnight” onto MHWGO 2 Quote
guigafs15 Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:59 PM Posted April 26, 2021 at 10:59 PM I must be the only fan who really loves LCMM. It never gets old for me, she always sings live and has the most fun with it. I even love the fact the she sings differently each time and just have fun with her voice. I really wouldn't mind for LCMM to be in every tour setlist. It doesn't need to be at the end as always, but just be there somewhere. 4 Quote

It doesn't need to be at the end as always, but just be there somewhere. I also love LCMM! The Celine Dion album was THE album of my youth... so it holds a special place for me. Celine clearly adores the song / the message of the song. I love how much she loves it. But I do wish she'd sing it closer to the album version again... like she did on The Voice in 2013. That was such a treat. 1 Quote
jpatdeleon09 Posted April 27, 2021 at 06:35 AM Posted April 27, 2021 at 06:35 AM (edited) You know why most of the peeps here doesn't want LCMM anymore. It's because of the live arrangements. It's getting boring. They need to make it more upbeat. Maybe they can do it like close to the studio version. Even the River Deep, Mountain High.. The A New Day and TCWT were better than the new one. Before, the arrangements were more energetic and more loud compared to the new one which is an orchestral version + lower key makes it sounded more boring. upbeats should not be played with orchestra + lower key = boring, the singer will sound boring too because of the lower key Edited April 27, 2021 at 06:38 AM by jpatdeleon09 1 Quote

Cuchi Posted April 27, 2021 at 08:24 AM Posted April 27, 2021 at 08:24 AM Hoping the residency starts in November this year and fills the 'gap' between the end of the tour in Sep (most likely she will take Oct off) and the new leg in March 2022. Wondering when we will hear about her dates at RW. 1 Quote

Same for Ashes and flying on my own Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met TapatalkI'd love to have LMBTL as part of the set list. I know they have to do all the major 90's hits cuz it's technically a US based show; I've accepted that it is what it is at this point. Especially for such a big show where the main goal is not only to attract us die hards: it also has to appeal to mass-audiences and pull in the general public. That said: it'd be great if they at least include one song from the past few albums that she released: LMBTL, TC, etc. We know AND or IDAN will most likely make an appearance to account for that era but I so wish they'd do something for those 2 albums as well. And of course a song or 2 from Courage since it's the latest release. If they at least did that, I don't care what other medley's are there lol. And being a US based show, most audiences now don't know a ton about her French stuff...would love a song from D'elles or EUS as the French song for this show. 4 Quote ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life.

Shamrock_1982 Posted April 27, 2021 at 01:18 PM Posted April 27, 2021 at 01:18 PM I love LMBTL and she killed it on the Xfactor but yeah with the band/orchestra arrangement on the mini tour in London it sounded rubbish and she just also looked awkward performing maybe due to the arrangement. Quote
sarit_celine Posted April 27, 2021 at 01:25 PM Posted April 27, 2021 at 01:25 PM To hear some rare songs will be amazing, only one or two no one askes for too much.But I came to make peace with the fact that she want to sing the songs she trully enjoy to sing live, and theseare the songs by her idols. 1 Quote "Needed in the chaos and confusion, from the plains to City HallNeeded where the proud who walk the wire are set to fall"
Alex_Incognito Posted April 27, 2021 at 02:20 PM Posted April 27, 2021 at 02:20 PM Sadly some songs just don't translate well to the stage. Especially when the arrangements are nothing to write home about. I can't say that Scott has wowed me at all. The last time I was wowed with her arrangements was in 2011 ---especially adding the orchestra. But now they don't know how to use the orchestra to enhance it."Imperfections" live was just painful. It turned into the time to go get popcorn or have a little chat with your neighbor. Honestly it would be better with a pre-recorded track. 2 Quote "People pay 20-25 dollars to see you."- Céline Dion, 1990

mirage Posted April 27, 2021 at 06:48 PM Posted April 27, 2021 at 06:48 PM He does a great job with the classic songs. But when they performing recent songs with more of an upbeat sound the music gets lost. They need to use the studio backing track for those. Sadly some songs just don't translate well to the stage.
