               TRIBUTE TO CELINE DION


     I'm Portuguese and a fan of the Beatles, Sting, U2, Michael Bublé, Alicia Keys, Andrea Bocelli, Diana Krall, Skunk Anansie, Queen, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Frank Sinatra... but none of these artists touch me as deeply as Celine Dion.

    Celine has something special. When I listen to her, I hear not only a good song, but also a great voice that share her feelings.

    Everything sounds incredible in Celine's voice.

    This is the reason why I dedicated this site to my favourite female voice.

    Here you can find the essential about Celine Dion, and especially her best photos and many curiosities.

    We can either love her, or hate her, but something is undeniable - her VOICE.

Songs like "Power of love", "Pour que tu m'aimes encore", "Because you loved me", "All by my self", "It's all coming back to me now", "My heart will go on", "I'm your angel"... became real worldwide hits, turning this women one of the best artists in History.

"I don't want a hit, I want a career. I want to sing all my life". (Celine Dion, 1989)

 


What they say about her:

 

"It's no lie that I always describe Celine as the greatest voice I know, and yes she is still my favourite female singer. (...) Apart from being an exceptional singer she is also a fantastic person".

"Listening to her sing in person is pretty much a religious experience."

David Foster (Music producer)

 

 

"I think Celine Dion is an international treasure, and I have to say one of the most genuine people I've ever met."

Oprah Winfrey 

 

 

“Celine has such a beautiful, mesmerizing voice. She is so talented, I would love to work with her. I think we could create something that is a classic like she already is.”

Timbaland

 

 

“I am an absolute, wouldn’t be embarrassed, chase-down-the-bus fan. Her voice is, like, not human. She’s so unique, you know her voice from a million miles away – from the first second you hear it. I think a gift from God like that is the coolest thing in the world.”

R. Kelly

 

 

"I appreciated Celine from the moment she walked in. Here's this huge persona, and she comes in like she was a secretary, an everyday normal, humble person, She introduces herself with no ego. I loved that. She's a wonderful woman. I admire and respect her!"

Linda Perry

 

 

"I first met Celine Dion at the premiere of Sleepless in Seattle. We were at a fancy Hollywood ballroom, with tables full of famous folk and expensive champagne. She introduced herself, this young beautiful woman, with a nod and a smile. She spoke very little English, and my French is...well...isn't. Then she sang, and I was blown away. I have heard her sing live many times since then. Each time she amazes. It is her heart, however, that is truly her greatest gift. More pure than her pitch, more tender than her tone. She is one of a kind."

Rosie O'Donnell

 

 

"Celine is the best singer in the world. Nobody can out-sing her. She was on Divas once with Aretha Franklin and a whole bunch of other girls. She blew them all away. I was amazed. One time we were both at NBC and she did “Believe” for me. She did all the electronic effects with her voice! I would never sing on the same stage with her at the same time! The other girls have got great style, but as far as pipes go…"

Cher

 

 

"Nowadays, Celine Dion is the biggest singer in the world. She became a superstar. When D'eux was released, I helped her to be known in France. Now I don't have nothing more to do".

Jean Jacques Goldman, Celine's French producer. 

 

 

"Celine is not only a world class artist and one of the best singers of all time... she is also one of the greatest people I know."

Thomas Mottola, Chairman of Sony Music

 

 

"A voice that without the least effort goes from deep whispers to very high notes, a sweet siren which combines strength and grace with skill."

Time Magazine - July 3, 1994

 


"Is Alfred Brendel a pianist? Well, yes but he's much, much more than a pianist. He's a poet. He's a writer. He's a philosopher. Was Yehudi Menuhin a violinist? Yes, but he was much, much more than that - a humanitarian, a cultural ambassador. Celine Dion is at that highest quality level where to call her a singer is not enough. She is just simply an artist."

Kent Nagano, Music director of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra

 

 

"Remember the name because you will never forget the voice!"

René Angelil
