Get your Blu-ray player warmed up, get your 5.1 speakers lined up, clear out the neighbours, wind up the volume & enjoy! This is music at it's best & the real reason you spent so much on your Blu-ray player!

The worst DVD ever - By: Tricia, 19 Jul 2008
This DVD is just so bad.

Whatever you do, don't buy this.

If you're willing to spend some hard earned cash on a product worthwhile, then purchase Dennis Wilson's 'Pacific Ocean Blue'.

Biography
Celine Dion startedin a rural French Canadian hometown called Charlemagnein the province of Quebec. She is the youngest of 14 childrenin a highly musical family. The family owned a small local club, & on weekends, all the family entertained the local population. Celine was only five years old when she started performingin front of an audience. By the age of twelve, the bright young talent composed a French song with her brother & mother, which forever changed the course of her life.

That's when Rene Angelil (her current Husband) & respected talent agent, heard the song & saw a bright future for the young singer. In January of 1981, Rene was really taken by Celine's voice & decided to mortgage his house to finance her debut album.

The steak of recognition startedin 1982 when she won the Gold Medal at the Yamaha World Song Festivalin Tokyo as well as the coveted Musician's Award for Top Performer. In 1983, Celine became the first Canadian to receive a Gold Recordin France.

Celine was hitting it bigin her native province of Quebec, where she received numerous Felix Awards & racking up many platinum albums. During the year of 1988, she also won the prestigious Eurovision Song Contestin Dublin Ireland, where she performed livein front of a 600 million television audience throughout Europe.

Celine was known everywhere throughout the world & when she recorded the title track for the soundtrack to the animated Disney hit movie Beauty & the Beast, she had reached the huge American market. The song quickly climbed up the charts to number one & garnered both an Academy Award & a Grammy Award. Her second English language album, called Celine Dion produced four more hit singles & the album went six times platinumin Canada, which set the way for an incredible streak of Juno Awards- the Canadian equivalent of the Grammy Awards.

In the mean time Celine became extremely popularin the UK with the song Think Twice, which remained number one on the charts of the British charts for five consecutive weeks. This was a great achievement as The Beatles had set the benchmarkin 1965. Celine became the fourth female artist ever to sell a million singlesin the UK. She even introduced French music to the upper British charts, the song D'eux caught the world by storm & allowed the world to find out about her.

With one of music's greatest voices, Celine has crossed practically every barrier & has conquered the world with a series of electrifying international hits. She dedicated all her time & efforts touring, appearing on TV shows, receiving awards & attending special events. However, Celine still has time to support the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundationin memorial of her niece, Karine, who was passed away from the disease.

The success story doesn't stop here. In 1996, Falling Into You became the best selling album of the year, it topped the chartsin 11 countries & was voted Album of the Year & Best Pop Albumin the 39th annual Grammy Awards. As of today, the album recorded sales of more than 25 million copies worldwide. Her follow-up album was Let's Talk About Love, it featured popular music from other great vocalists, songwriters, & producers. It was also released on the soundtrack of the motion picture Titanic, which was an unprecedented success. The most popular song was My Hearth Will Go On, written by James Horner & produced by James Warner & Walter Afanasieff. The Titanic soundtrack sold over 27 million copies worldwide & became the best-selling orchestral soundtrackin recording history. The song also pocketed an Oscar for Best Original Song; the second Oscar for a song performed by Celine.

Celine recorded many albums ranging from These Are Special Times featuring sixteen holiday songs, to a greatest hit album including her chart-topping hit single The Power of Love, & a collection of seven new songs. These songs struck gold once again & Celine has been called the premier contemporary pop vocalist of the nineties & earned her the status of international superstar. She recently re-married her longtime agentin a fancy Las Vegas Hotel & decided to take a year off to spend some time with Rene & start a family.

All Music DVDs should be this good - By: P. Burton, 15 May 2008
I saw this concert, or at least an edited version, on TV recently & decided to purchase the DVD. I was not disappointed. The main show is spectacular & the extra features equally entertaining. Celine Dion comes across as a genuinely nice person, not at all "diva", despite her supreme talent.The only minor niggle is that the sound level is lower than on most DVDs which might be a problem on portable players/PCs. Highly recommended
