Meanwhile, the coverage across the media — from every side and in every format — has been overwhelmingly glowing. What is happening in terms of media coverage is genuinely historic. Many of them do acknowledge that her voice has been diminished, but they do so with nuance and tremendous respect.

I’m still not sold on her voice being diminished.. diminished by what terms? 
 

Is her voice diminished compared to 1997 and 2007, yeah. Is it diminished compared to 2018-2020. I don’t think so.

Haters gonna hate; whatever they say, Celine will remain one of the best singers in history, and tbh they know nothing abt Celine and simply comparing her current voice with her 90s peak is unfair in any regard. We the fans will know Celine has actually "improved" compared to that in CWT, especially her articulation; the way she does "love" in BYLM is MUCH better and less nasal, and you can hear her projection, mainly in the lower register which she has no issue with, is much more relaxed than before. Those who didn't follow Celine all the way and simply pop up from nowhere to criticise are just being nonsensical... Yes, she has an issue with her most signature belt range D5-F5 due to SPS and unfortunately that's sth uncontrollable, and who's more frustrated and devastated by it? Is Celine, not us or those prats who show zero empathy and kindness. Can you imagine how hard it is for her to accept it and dare to stand out and to show the world? She's doing it for us😭

Probably the only man, other than her kids, Céline has spent the most time with. Lots of hard work training the body

Que ela perdeu a voz e deveria ter se aposentado... Vi isso em alguns fóruns de fãs e comentários no Instagram. É muito difícil ver comentários assim. Não é como se as pessoas não soubessem que ela sofre de Síndrome da Pessoa Sistêmica (SPS). É simplesmente preconceito por idade.

Pois aqui no Brasil são somente reações extremamente positivas, amamos a Celine, e todos estão super orgulhosos da forma como ela voltou. Muitos críticos e professores de canto fazendo resenhas e enaltecendo a força da natureza que ela é.

Celine's team is negotiating with Evenko for possible concerts in Quebec. I wouldn't be surprised if they thought the bootleg videos would negatively affect ticket sales for future concerts because of the quality of her voice. Personally, I think she sounded fine, even better than on the A New Day Live in Las Vegas 2004 CD and the Taking Chances Tour DVD but I've heard many people say that her voice has deteriorated too much. There were also many comments about lip-syncing, which probably bothered her team. Just my two cents.

If that's the case,her team needs to be more aggressive.If they think fancams don't do her voice justice, then upload some well recorded songs on YouTube when her voice becomes stronger in the upcoming shows,show the world the voice is still there.

I’ll be in row 66 and worried being 5” I won’t see much at all 🤣 how close are we talking? 

Not as far as you might think. Keep in mind the venue is huge!

To me, it’s obvious. I can hear the work she’s done on her tone and pronunciation. And yes, in a way, that sometimes makes her voice sound more beautiful. I also find her technique impressive. You can really tell how much work she has put into it.

Unfortunately, you can also hear that she is being held back, that she no longer has the same abilities or control. There is very little power, vibrato or projection left. Her chest voice is weak. During the Courage era, she was still capable of flashes of brilliance in all of those areas.

Last Saturday, I didn’t hear a single truly powerful, rich, soaring and projected vocal moment.

We’ll see how things evolve once the show has had time to settle in and once the emotions are a little more under control.

They're not going to the effort of removing bootlegs because of a few negative Karen’s leaving comments, this was to be expected. Critics reviews have all been glowing and these would hold much more weight, Celine really has nothing to prove anymore, people want to see her purely because she’s Celine Dion and she’s now a symbol of resilience. 

it’s much more likely they’ve been removed due to automatic copyright systems on YouTube and if there’s to be an official release of the show Sony will want to protect it’s commercial assets and not have too many HD bootlegs online stopping people from purchasing the release.

Well there better be a official release because right now it ruins the experience that she's back quite a bit if there's nothing to watch

I’ve translated Céline’s speeches into English and uploaded audio from the full show here. Enjoy everyone! Big thanks to Elise for recording and providing the audio track! Unfortunately I don’t have time to add time stamps right now.

 

 

Could you upload it somewhere else, please? Just like the other videos, yours was removed too 😣😤

Guys, I had a wonderful evening last night. I was sitting near the Seine at 23.56 and started the album version of ANDHC and right on time when the the climax approached, the Eiffel Tower went glowing. When it ended, I started Dansons and it ended perfectly when the flickering stopped. I felt so lucky at that moment after attending the concert, think about the memories, our queen and celebrated life. It was a moment meant to be. 
 

Just wanted to share. It was perfect and magical at the same time. And yes, I cried (again 😂). 

What a great journey it has been ❤️

Good F UCKING Mornin’ ☀️ 

Hope they will keep it up the next months. Or maybe this will be it 😝

If she smart she will do like Adele, each show different outfits. That way they can keep posting pictures. Otherwise it will become boring very quickly.

Many of these best-of-compilation Instagram accounts (like best of the 90s or greatest live performances ever etc) also share a lot of older Céline Dion clips. Everyone seems to be riding on the hype. It’s lovely to see! (But also a bit sad to realise how social media and algorithms work.)

Wishful thinking if a new song will be released this Friday ??! or the least by end of the October leg (but too tight for promotion since all Xmas songs will crawl out)

Almost certain to me that new french album will be out in March, just in time to promote prior to second leg and adjusted setlist.

It is a bit unusual to have a residency that is broken up or paused for over 8 months. I wonder that the May concerts will be a complete design and layout. I mean all the designers will fight for different outfit that Celine can wear for exposure

Celine Dion is Back: 25 songs, 30.000 spectators and a voice that lasted.

This is a wonderful review from Greek magazine LIFO. I do not have the time to translate the whole thing but it is worth using 'Google Translate' - a really fascinating read.

Is Celine still at the hotel and are there people about? Arrived this morning and was wondering if anybody has seen her come and go ?

I just left after 6 hours of waiting from being unbearably cold and hungry 😅 So for my sake I’m hoping she didn’t come out just as I’m settling down to some (terrible) hot food

[homerton]

I agree. The press have been positive. All over the uk. Everyone is talking about it. The biggest comeback ever!! 
 

at work out new motto is. If Celine Dion can sing again… we can do anything. 
 

next to what would dolly do ?

I saw a rumor that the outfits would changed… Adele did it every weekend. So hopefully Céline will do new outfits every week at least. Change it up after every three performances for the week with a new lineup each Wednesday. We shall see, typically Céline doesn’t make many changes.

[Abodi2002]

If someone can upload to google drive with a smaller file I would appreciate that. For now, here is a live stream of Saturdays concert. I doubt it will be up for long.

I noticed the link didn't seem to appear.

When she sang The Chase, I grabbed my phone like a mf because I knew it'd probably be the first and last time she'd ever sing it live 😂 I only got the entire thing because she messed up the beginning at first. 

I tried uploading it as 'unlisted' so you can't find it through the search engine, let's hope that helps:

 

[Nmj]

I never saw this!
