Celine Dion on The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards 2010

EARTH SONG 

What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things that you said
We were to gain?
What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things
That you said were yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth, these weeping shores?
Ah, ooh
Ah, ooh
What have we done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying earth, these weeping shores?
Ah, ooh
Ah, ooh
I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far
Ah, ooh
Ah, ooh
Ah, ooh
Ah, ooh
Hey, what about yesterday
(What about us)
What about the seas
(What about us)
The heavens are falling down
(What about us)
I can't even breathe
(What about us)
What about apathy
(What about us)
Burnt despite our pleas
(What about us)
What about the holy land
(What about it)
Torn apart by creed
(What about us)
Where did we go wrong
(ooo, ooo)
Someone tell me why
(What about us)
What about babies
(What about it)
What about the days
(What about us)
What about all their joy
Do we give a damn
/Michael Jackson/

Celine Dion said about Chinese Spring Festival Gala 2013

“It's a great honor to be invited to participate in the 2013 CCTV Spring Festival, and I'd like thank China Central Television for this great privilege, as well as Evergrande Music Co.ltd for supporting and assisting the process. During the many years that I've been performing in Las Vegas, I've become aware of the importance of the Spring Festival as we've welcomed so many wonderful Chinese fans to our shows. Now I'll have the chance to experience this magnificent event in person. It's been almost 5 years since I was last in China. I love the Chinese people and their culture and I'm looking forward to going back there, and celebrating the Chinese New Year with all of them!"”

Celine Dion - D'amour ou d'amitié 1983

In 1983, Celine made her very first television appearance in France. She sang her intense ballad "D'amour ou d'amitié" live on the popular variety show 'Champs Élysées' hosted by famous journalist and TV host Michel Drucker. This song is featured on her album ‘On ne change pas’.

D'amour ou d'amitié 

Il pense à moi je le vois je le sens je le sais
Et son sourire ne ment pas quand il vient me chercher
Il aime bien me parler des choses qu'il a vues
Du chemin qu'il a fait et de tous ses projets
Je crois pourtant qu'il est seul et qu'il voit d'autres filles
Je ne sais pas ce qu'elles veulent ni les phrases qu'il dit
Je ne sais pas où je suis quelque part dans sa vie
Si je compte aujourd'hui plus qu'une autre pour lui

Il est si près de moi pourtant je ne sais pas comment l'aimer
Lui seul peut décider qu'on se parle d'amour ou d'amitié
Moi je l'aime et je peux lui offrir ma vie
Même s'il ne veut pas de ma vie

Je rêve de ses bras oui mais je ne sais pas comment l'aimer
Il a l'air d'hésiter entre une histoire d'amour ou d'amitié
Et je suis comme une île en plein océan
On dirait que mon coeur est trop grand

Rien à lui dire il sait bien que j'ai tout à donner
Rien qu'à sourire à l'attendre à vouloir le gagner
Mais qu'elles sont tristes les nuits le temps me paraît long
Et je n'ai pas appris à me passer de lui

Il est si près de moi pourtant je ne sais pas comment l'aimer
Lui seul peut décider qu'on se parle d'amour ou d'amitié
Moi je l'aime et je peux lui offrir ma vie
Même s'il ne veut pas de ma vie

Je rêve de ses bras oui mais je ne sais pas comment l'aimer
Il a l'air d'hésiter entre une histoire d'amour ou d'amitié
Et je suis comme une île en plein océan
On dirait que mon coeur est trop grand

Celine Dion to Sing at Spring Festival Gala 9.2. 2013 !

China Central Television (CCTV) today confirmed the buzz in the entertainment industry that international pop diva Celine Dion will indeed perform a Chinese classic at its grand gala to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

The CCTV statement read that, "Celine Dion, one of the best selling female singers in the world, whose career has spanned from the 1990's up to now, will join CCTV's Spring Festival Gala."

The statement further added, "Besides singing her classic 'My Heart Will Go On' from the blockbuster movie 'Titanic,' Celine Dion will also sing a duet-version of the traditional Chinese classic 'Jasmine Flower' with Chinese folk diva Song Zuying."

Celine Dion is just one of several foreign artists, and the first international megastar, to be invited onto the center stage of China's most important annual gala, which will be watched by about one billion Chinese people. Her performance may compensate the departure of China's most popular comedian Zhao Benshan and Hong Kong superstar Jacky Cheung.

Chinese pop acts Sun Nan, Yang Kun, Jane Zhang, S.H.E., Leehom Wang, Na Ying; folk singers Song Zuying, Tan Jin, Li Guyi and Chinese rocker Wang Feng; as well as pianist Li Yundi, and hugely popular comedian Guo Degang will also appear during the CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, which falls on Feb. 9 this year.

A few big international names will also appear at China's local TV networks' galas, such as the Backstreet Boys who will perform on China's Liaoning Province Television's Spring Festival Gala and "Gangnam Style" singer Psy, who is set for Shanghai's Dragon TV's Spring Festival Gala with Taiwanese supermodel Lin Chi-ling.

Celine Dion - Attendre (Sans attendre)

Attendre
Quelqu’un qui n’arrive pas
Attendre
Sans jamais perdre la foi
Pour prendre
La route qu’on a décidé
De prendre
Il nous faut du temps parfois
Malgré
Ce qui pourrait nous faire douter
On veut tous espérer

Attendre
Que quelqu’un vienne nous chercher
Attendre
Qu’on puisse enfin retrouver
Si tendre
Cet amour qu’il nous fallait
Attendre
Et le temps pour enfin se
Comprendre
C’est la vie qui saura nous
Apprendre
La vie a toujours raison d’attendre
D’attendre

Attendre
Un enfant qui te ressemble
Attendre
Les premiers sons de sa voix
Entendre
Les mots que j’ai tant rêvés
D’entendre
Les partager avec toi
Malgré
Tout ce qui pourrait nous blesser
On veut tous espérer

Attendre
Que quelqu’un vienne nous chercher
Attendre
Qu’on puisse enfin retrouver
Si tendre
Cet amour qu’il nous fallait
Attendre
Et le temps pour enfin se
Comprendre
C’est la vie qui saura nous
Apprendre
La vie a toujours raison d’attendre
Oui d’attendre

Attendre
Que toi tu viennes enfin me
Surprendre
Et de ta vie toute entière
Dépendre
Ne pas dire un mot et se comprendre
Moi j’ai passé ma vie à
T’attendre
Et tout ce temps que j’ai voulu
Prendre
C’est l’amour qu’il me faut te rendre
Sans attendre
Sans attendre

Sentir
Qu’il est maintenant l’heure de
Désobéir
Qu’il faut tout vivre avant de
Mourir
Et sans trembler, sans s’attendre
Au pire
Sans peur des coups, sans peur de
Souffrir
Nous construirons ensemble
L’avenir
Laisse-moi encore une fois
Te dire
De m’attendre

Oui attendre
Que toi tu viennes enfin me
Surprendre
Et de ta vie toute entière
Dépendre
Ne pas dire un mot et se comprendre
Moi j’ai passé ma vie à
T’attendre
Et tout ce temps que j’ai voulu
Prendre
C’est l’amour qu’il me faut te rendre
Sans attendre

(Elodie Hesme / David Gategno)

Celine Dion - The Reason (Show Celine Live in Las Vegas January 2013)

I figured it out
I was high and low and everything in between
I was wicked and wild, baby, you know what I mean
Till there was you, yeah, you
Something went wrong
I made a deal with the devil for an empty I.O.U.
Been to hell and back, but an angel was looking through
It was you, yeah, you
It's all because of you
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
In the middle of the night
I'm going down 'cause I adore you
I want to floor you
I'm giving it up
No more running around spinning my wheel
You came out of my dream and made it real
I know what I feel
It's you
It's all because of you
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
In the middle of the night
I'm going down 'cause I want you
I want to touch you
I want to floor you
You are the reason, baby

You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason

Celine Dion Said about The singer Barbra Streisand

'It's a shame for us that she's not always on the stage. Because she's amazing! I love her. I love to watch her movies. She moves me. I love her as a singer, as an actress. I've had the honour of her inviting my husband and me to dine with her at home. It's really a shame for us not to see her on stage more often'

Celine said about the singer Lady Gaga

'She is unique. She reminds me of Elton John, with the wild costumes.If all Elton John ever did was walk on stage in crazy costumes, hats and furs, no one would have cared. But because of his talent is bigger than life, it works. So that's why she reminds me of Elton John, because when she begins to sing, you see she's a real singer, with extraordinary talent and incredible vocal talent'

Celine said about the singer Madonna

'I know that her father is my number one fan. We met her at one of her shows. I'm a fan. When she came to Montreal, I was next to the stage. I think she's has an extraordinary career and again, I'm watching Lourdes grow up and she looks magnificent. I say: Well, it's still amazing to have a career like that. She's managed to do exactly what she wanted to do. She has charisma, and has nerve.You must be able to work and have discipline.You must be the right thing at the right time. And I think obviously, Madonna had everything she needed to succeed'

Celine Dion Raises $1 Million with Performance Benefitting Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is one step closer to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis thanks to a little help from some superstar friends. More than $1 million was raised in support of cystic fibrosis research efforts last night during a special performance "Adding Tomorrows with Celine Dion," a partnership with international music icon Celine Dion, Caesars Entertainment, AEG Live and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Held at Caesars Palace, the evening included a performance of Celine Dion's glamorous show by Grammy Awards producer Ken Ehrlich and featured a touching tribute to those with cystic fibrosis during her rendition of " Billy Joel's "Lullabye."

Funds from the benefit concert will support critical research for cystic fibrosis, a fatal genetic disease that causes debilitating lung infections and premature death. As the world's leading organization fighting cystic fibrosis, the CF Foundation funds more research than any other organization and is fueling tremendous advances toward a cure and improving the lives of those with the disease.
Celine lost her niece Karine to cystic fibrosis in 1993 and has been involved in the fight against this disease as the Celebrity Patron for Cystic Fibrosis Canada since 1982.

"The cystic fibrosis cause holds a very special place in my heart and I'm honored to have been able to team up with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, my partners at Caesars Entertainment and AEG Live to help raise funds and awareness for this worthy cause," said Celine. "We're making dramatic progress in treating this terrible disease, and I truly hope that one day soon, CF will stand for 'cure found.'"

Celine Dion & Henri Salvador " Tan de temps" (Sans attendre 2012)

Discover the beautiful song “Tant de temps”, a virtual duet with the late Henri Salvador from Celine’s new album ‘Sans attendre’. Celine was very touched when Catherine, Henri’s wife, let her know that it was Henri’s lifetime wish to sing with Celine and offered her one of his songs. Celine compares receiving this gift to a precious gem or rare pearl and happily recorded this track with Henri’s voice.

Tant de temps

Tant de temps
Au cadran de l’absence
Tant de temps
Déluge de silence
Tout à coup
La nuit tombe sur nous

Tant de temps
Comme une marée noire
Qui s’étend
Sur l’eau de ma mémoire
Sous la proue
D’un amour qui s’échoue

Oh ma vie,
Pourquoi suis-je tombé de haut
Sur le banc des gens normaux
Dans mes mains
Y’a plus rien
Que du pain pour les oiseaux

Tant de temps
À respirer tes lettres
Ces instants
Qui ne peuvent pas renaître
Dans nos yeux
Qui ne croient plus en nous deux

Tant de temps
Qui me ronge les ongles
Jusqu’au sang
À blanchir ton ombre
J’ai si peur
Des fantômes du bonheur

Toutes ces nuits
À survivre loin de toi
Dans le vide de tes bras
Accroché à l’amour
Sous l’avalanche des jours

Tant de temps
Au cadran de l’absence
Lancinant
Roulement de silence
Tout à coup
L’oubli tombe sur nous
L’oubli tombe sur nous

(Sylvain Lebel / Christian Loigerot)

Celine Dion - In Some Small Way (Live in Las Vegas 2005)

there's a tree
standing there
in such an ordinary way
but as I look around
everything keeps changing
there's a leaf
on that tree
and it floats into a stream
and like everything
it gets carried away
to the sea...
(chorus)
but if we give a little of our love away
maybe meet in the middle
every night and day
if we could hear just a whisper
of what the heart needs to say
it could sure make a difference
in some small...
in some small way
in your heart lies the key
that unlocks your destiny
look within and we'll find
everything we're longing for
(chorus)
oh...
may you cherish each moment you live
and know all the love that you give
will go on and on and on...
there's a sky vast and blue
and it lies deep inside of you
breathe it in
let it out
breathe it in again...
(chorus)

Celine, One of the Celebrities That Define Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Sun recently compiled a list of the top 25 celebrities that define the city of Las Vegas. Celine occupies the #4 position, behind Elvis. Celine’s love story with Las Vegas began in 2003 when she presented her fabulous first show “A New Day”.

Celine Pays Her Mother Tribute With “Celle qui m’a tout appris”

Celine’s new album ‘Sans attendre’ is a very personal album. With “Celle qui m’a tout appris”, which means “the one who has taught me everything”, Celine pays tribute to her mother Thérèse. Celine says this very touching song was a gift to her from songwriters Jacques Veneruso and Nina Bouraoui and it captures how she feels about her mother. Celine’s favourite part of the song is when she sings about how her mother is following her father’s footsteps and how Celine’s father paved the way for her mother. Celine thinks that’s a beautiful sentiment.

Celine Dion - Ne me quitte pas (Simplement pour un soir on France2 12.1.2013)

Celine sang a song from her new album in French "Sans attendre" 

"Ne me quitte pas" + short interview .
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
À savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
À coups de pourquoi
Le cœur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
Où il ne pleut pas
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'après ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumière
Je ferai un domaine
Où l'amour sera roi
Où l'amour sera loi
Où tu seras roi
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Je t'inventerai
Des mots insensés
Que tu comprendras
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-là
Qui ont vu deux fois
Leurs cœurs s'embraser
Je te raconterai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
On a vu souvent
Rejaillir le feu
D'un ancien volcan
Qu'on croyait trop vieux
Il est paraît-il
Des terres brulées
Donnant plus de blé
Qu'un meilleur avril
Et quand vient le soir
Pour qu'un ciel flamboie
Le rouge et le noir
Ne s'épousent-ils pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Je ne vais plus pleurer
Je ne vais plus parler
Je me cacherai là
À te regarder
Danser et sourire
Et à t'écouter
Chanter et puis rire
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre
L'ombre de ta main
L'ombre de ton chien
Mais

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas.

(Jacques Brel)
