Let's talk about your private Celine library


Recommended Posts

Posted

So among the Celine items you've collected thus far, which one is your favourite? What about the most dated? Which item do you consider the rarest? The most expensive? The most disliked? What was your most unforgettable Celine experience? When did you start funding your Celine library? Could it be a source of recurring deficits? :P

 

I started collecting her stuff about a year ago. The first album I bought was "The Colour Of My Love". There were only three songs in that album that I liked - The Power of Love, When I Fall In Love, and the title track. The dance numbers gave me headaches! So basically I skipped all the remaining tracks. It remains my least reviewed Celine album to this day. After getting a bad first impression of "The Colour of My Love", I started exploring her French repertoire, paying special attention to her early singles. That was when I became hooked! I truly admired the simplicity of the melodies and was deeply moved by Eddy Marnay's poetic lyrics.

 

My favourite Celine's English album is "Let's Talk About Love", although I can't stand "Tell Him" - loathe it with a passion.

 

Talking about the rarest... Well I'm not that much of a Celine collector, so I don't think I've got anything special.

 

My most unforgettable Celine experience? Again, nothing special :down:

 

Apparently I haven't got an interesting story to tell. That's why I'm looking forward to hearing yours! :clap:

My dearest love

who existed in a dream

Till this evening when

a wave came and swept me out to sea

None of the loves

that you have known

Could prepare you

for the love raging

everywhere in me

 

For all the arms that have covered you

the hands that have touched you

and the lips you have lingered on before

Added together would be less than an olive

In the banquet of love I have in store

 

Love season to entice

Love with all the trimmings filled with spice

Love flavored to your whim

Served piping hot with all the trimmings...

 

For I'll decode every breath and every sigh,

till your every lover's wish

is fulfilled before it's made

Toss in some jealousy and doubt,

should it be required

Not to rest till there's nothing more desired

 

Thus loving as I do

Never, never will you ever be untrue

Having love with all the trimmings

Waiting home for you...

I never thought I would become a huge Celine fan, I bought "Falling Into You" because of "It's All Coming Back To Me Now"...then a few months later after I saw "The Colour of My Love" on Disney... and I slowly went looking for all the CDs that had the songs she sang on there... you can imagine how crazy I went when looking for "Can't Help Falling In Love" :lol: I started reading more about her and I begged my mom to buy me "Dion Chante Plamondon" and "The French Album" the same day.. haha and the rest is history!! :w00t: I collect mostly magazines & articles with Celine in them... I'm a big penny pincher so I don't have many singles. :blushing: I'm so mad I forgot to bid on a "Chante Noel" vynil last month, it was only $30 and sealed! :angry2:

 

Which one is your favourite? The "Let's Talk About Love" Tour Book

What about the most dated? Other than magazines I don't think I have anything dated.

Which item do you consider the rarest? I don't think I have anything rare

The most expensive? Probably the 1st "A New Day" program :shy:

What was your most unforgettable Celine experience? Soon... :msn-wink:

First of all, it would take me an eternity to name all of the Céline items I have... so I'll just answer your questions!

 

So among the Celine items you've collected thus far, which one is your favourite?

My personalized autograph!!! Definatley my most prized possession! :wub:

 

What about the most dated?

Umm... not sure. To be honest, I haven't started on that collection yet until I have a place to put more stuff, LOL!

 

Which item do you consider the rarest?

My A New Day... opening night package. :thumbsup:

 

The most expensive?

I spend so much money on everything Céline, it's hard to say. Probably the "Miracle" book, the sweater I had to have in Vegas, all the perfume, and other shirts and souvenirs in Vegas. The most money I've spent on Céline would be the tickets to her show, which I spend every last dime on without hesitation!

 

The most disliked?

Ha, that's funny! I love everything!!! :clap:

 

What was your most unforgettable Celine experience?

Seeing her in Las Vegas... she talked to my best friend and I in the audience on more than one occasion... so amazing!! :in_love:

 

When did you start funding your Celine library?

The first CD I owned was "Falling into You"... but then I went back a got the three previous English albums and realized I knew songs on those albums too from the radio. From then on I was hooked... I have all of her French albums by now too. :D

My favorite: Falling Into You CD

Most dated: don't remember

Rarest: nothing really, I'm not much of a collector

Most expensive: Concert tickets for the One Nite with Lite Concert last month

Most Disliked: Unison CD, I haven't heard the whole CD from start to finish yet :innocent: some songs I have not listened to.

Most Unforgettable Celine experience: when I saw her on September 3rd 1998 during her Let's Talk About Love tour and most recently the One Nite with Lite Concert here in New York.

I started funding it in early 1998 when I got the Falling Into You album, soon, started to buy the rest of the English, and eventually moved on to her French albums :msn-wink: :w00twave:
