CELINE DION - COURAGE

 

COURAGE

I would be lying if I said I'm fine

I think of you at least 100 times

Cause in the echo of my voice I hear your words

Just like you’re there

I still come home from a long day

So much to talk about so much to say

I love to think that we're still making plans

In conversations that'll never end

In conversations that'll never end

Courage

Don't you dare fail me now

I need you to keep away the doubts

I'm staring in the face of something new

You’re all I got to hold on to

So courage

Don't you dare fail me now

I’m not one to hide from the truth I know

It’s out of my hands but I won't let you go

There’s no replacing the way you touched me

I still feel the rush

Sometimes it drowns me until I can’t breath

Thinking it’s only in our memories

But then I talk to you like I did then

In conversations that will never end

Courage

Don't you dare fail me now

I need you to keep away the doubts

I'm staring in the face of something new

You’re all I got to hold on to

So courage

Don't you dare fail me now

Cause it’s not easy

When you’re not with me

This world of madness

Goes faster now

And it's a train wreck

But I won’t crash yet

Long as your echo

Never fades out

Courage don't you dare fail me now

Cause it’s not easy

When you’re not with me

This world of madness

Goes faster now

And it's a train wreck

But I won’t crash yet

Long as your echo

Never fades out

Courage don't you dare fail me now

CELINE DION DEFINITIVE FEATURE DOCUMENTARY FROM DIRECTOR IRENE TAYLOR IN PRODUCTION SEPTEMBER 2021

 Film to Chronicle the Life and Career of Vocal Powerhouse from Oscar®-Nominated Filmmaker

Sony Music Entertainment’s (SME) Premium Content Division, in partnership with SME Canada and Vermilion Films, today announced start of production for an untitled feature-length documentary about Celine Dion. From Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Irene Taylor, the documentary will serve as the definitive feature for one of the most immediately recognized, widely respected and successful performers in pop music history. Made with Dion’s full participation and support, the film will commemorate the Canadian songstress’ incredible life story and career accomplishments including iconic album releases, award accolades, world tours and Las Vegas residencies.

Imagined through the lens of acclaimed American filmmaker Irene Taylor, the documentary will delve deep into Dion’s singular life experience. Most recently, Taylor directed the Emmy®-nominated documentary Moonlight Sonata: Deafness in Three Movements. Her debut feature film, Hear and Now, won a Peabody Award and the Sundance Film Festival Audience Award. Additional accolades include a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children’s Program for her short film, One Last Hug, as well as an Academy Award® nomination for The Final Inch, which also garnered multiple Emmy nominations and the International Documentary Association’s Pare Lorentz Award.

“I’ve always been an open book with my fans, and with her sensitivity and thoughtful creativity I think that Irene will be able to show everyone a part of me that they haven’t seen before… I know she’ll tell my story in the most honest and heartfelt way,” said Celine Dion. 

“Going on this journey with a legendary artist such as Celine Dion is an extraordinary opportunity for me as a filmmaker. Having access to examine her life and inimitable career, will allow me to create a multifaceted portrait of an iconic, global superstar, which I look forward to sharing with the world,” said Irene Taylor.

Since bursting onto the global music scene at the age of 14, Dion has sold over 250 million albums during her 40-year career. Having earned five Grammy Awards, two Academy Awards®, the 2016 Billboard Music Award lifetime achievement Icon Award, and recognition from the 2004 World Music Awards as the best-selling female artist of all time, Dion continues to break records. With chart-topping hits featured in blockbuster films including “Ashes” (Deadpool 2), “My Heart Will Go On” (Titanic), and “Beauty and the Beast” (Beauty and the Beast), she remains a force in the industry and sets new standards of excellence. Later this year, Dion will return to Las Vegas with a brand-new show at Resorts World Las Vegas, kicking-off her new residency with 10 performances in November 2021.  Her Courage World Tour, which was cut short in 2020 due to COVID, will resume across North America and Europe in spring and summer of 2022. (COURAGE WORLD TOUR EUROPE IS  NOW  RESCHEDULED TO 2023)

‘BEHIND CELINE DION’S COURAGE’ SHORT AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON APPLE MUSIC 2020

 

‘Behind Celine Dion’s Courage,’ an original short reflecting on the making of the international superstar’s latest album, comes exclusively to Apple Music today. In the film, the multi-platinum, Grammy-winning Canadian pop powerhouse provides fans with an intimate look at her first English-language album after the death of her husband and longtime manager René Angélil. Dion reflects on her life coming off the end of the sixteen-year Las Vegas residency she conceived together with Angélil and speaks to how she was forced to rediscover herself as a mother and artist through the making of Courage, telling Apple Music: “I decided to rebuild my second half. It made me realize that it’s time to try things. It’s time to take risks. Because when you’re in a studio, it’s the perfect time to dream out loud. This is a place for you to explore, and to grow.”

CELINE DION RESCHEDULES 2022 EUROPEAN TOUR DATES TO 2023

 

European “Courage World Tour” dates May 25 through September 24, 2022, Now Rescheduled to February 24 through October 4, 2023

As Celine Dion continues to recover from a recent health issue, the singer has announced she will be postponing her 2022 European “Courage World Tour” dates and rescheduling the shows to 2023. Celine had completed the first 52 shows on the tour before the pandemic emerged in March 2020, but recently has been treated for severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing, and her recovery is taking longer than she hoped.  Her medical team continues to evaluate and treat the condition.

“I’m so sorry we have to change our tour plans for Europe one more time; first we had to move the shows because of the pandemic, now it’s my health issues causing us to postpone the shows,” Celine said.  “I am doing a little bit better…but I’m still experiencing some spasms.  I need to be in top shape when I’m on stage.  I honestly can’t wait, but I’m just not there yet… I’m doing my very best to get back to the level that I need to be so that I can give 100% at my shows because that’s what you deserve.”

Tickets purchased for the affected tour dates will be honored for the new rescheduled 2023 dates. For further ticket inquiries or options, ticketholders should reach out to their original point of purchase.

The rescheduled 2023 tour dates in Europe are as follows:

CELINE DION DELAYS OPENING OF NEW LAS VEGAS SHOW AT THE RESORTS WORLD THEATRE DUE TO MEDICAL REASONS

 

As Celine Dion has been preparing for the November 5 opening of her brand-new show in the beautiful, new Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, unforeseen medical symptoms have forced the singer to delay the opening and cancel the performances scheduled from November 5 to 20, 2021 and January 19 to February 5, 2022.

Celine has been experiencing severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing. Her medical team continues to evaluate and treat her. However, the symptoms she is experiencing are prohibiting her from participating in the ongoing rehearsals for the new show

“I’m heartbroken by this,” said Celine. “My team and I have been working on our new show for the past eight months, and to not be able to open this November saddens me beyond words. My partners at Resorts World Las Vegas and AEG have been working around the clock to get this brand-new state-of-the-art theatre ready, and it’s absolutely beautiful. I feel so bad that I’m letting them down, and I’m especially sorry for disappointing all the fans who’ve been making their plans to come to Las Vegas. Now, I have to focus on getting better… I want to get through this as soon as I can.”

“Celine is family to us, and the most important thing now is for her to focus on feeling better,“ said John Meglen, President and Co-CEO of Concerts West/AEG Presents. “In our two-decade long relationship with Celine, we’ve certainly learned how dedicated and resilient she is, and that she is most happy when she’s on stage doing what she loves most, performing for her fans. We’re ready to announce new Las Vegas show dates whenever Celine is ready.”

“If there’s anything these trying times have taught us, it’s that nothing is more important than your wellbeing,” said Scott Sibella, President of Resorts World Las Vegas. “While we are eager to debut the theatre, we support Celine in what we know was an incredibly difficult decision to delay her shows. On behalf of the entire Resorts World Las Vegas family, we wish her a speedy recovery and look forward to welcoming her to her new home when she feels ready and able to perform again.”

Ticket holders of the canceled Las Vegas performances should be aware of the following:

CELINE DION 

SUPERWOMAN

Are you expecting some kind of perfect perfection?

Can you accept anything less?

Now you think that I can't move mountains with my hands

'Cause all I can do is do my best

I'm only human

Made out of flesh and blood

I bruise, I bleed

I'm not a superwoman

Can't be your superwoman

I'm strong, I'm weak

I'm not a superwoman

Can't be your superwoman

I'm just me

Just me

I'm just me

Just me

I run hot, I run cold

I'm ugly, I'm beautiful

Now put me on a pedestal

I'm only gonna fall off, ooh

'Cause I'm only human (I'm only human)

Made out of flesh and blood

I'm only human

I'm only human

I bruise, I bleed

I'm not a superwoman

Can't be your superwoman

I'm strong, I'm weak

I'm not a superwoman

Can't be your superwman

I'm just me

I can fly across the sky

Carry the weight of your expectations

Be the hero of your life

I'm just one woman

I fight my own demons

I bruise, I bleed

I'm not a superwoman

Can't be your superwoman

I bruise, I bleed

I'm not a superwoman (superwoman)

Can't be your superwoman (superwoman)

I'm strong, I'm weak

Can't be your superwoman (superwoman)

Can't be your superwoman (superwoman)

I'm just me (can't be superwoman, baby)

I'm just me (can't be superwoman, yeah)

I'm not your superwoman (can't be superwoman, baby)

I'm not your superwoman (can't be superwoman, baby)

I'm just me, yea-ee-yeah

I'm just me (just me)

I'm not your superwoman (just me)

I'm just me
