Do You Think That When We Get to Heaven We’ll Sing Like Celine Dion?
This was the topic of conversation last night between my sister-in-law and I, in the -2 degree night air, exiting the concert. Seriously, her voice was perfection. Her performance was spectacular.
So before you start thinking, how does a mom to quadruplets afford pricey concert tickets, let me explain that they were FREE tickets given by our neighbor (talk about good neighbors), which were FREE to him, that he couldn’t use. It gets better. After wedging our way through the crowded security, we made it to the ticket scanning line, and our tickets wouldn’t scan. We swam against stream to get to the box office to figure out the problem. Turns out that due to Celine’s massive stage and lighting set up, our seats had become obstructed, and thus we were reassigned seats from nose bleed rafters to "Club Level". Niiiiiice!!!
I didn’t take many pictures, because I didn’t want to miss anything. This her 2nd encore singing "My Heart Will Go On".
I did feel a bit "middle-aged" among the crowd, and I did spot a lady taking a pick comb to her 80’s perm, but nevertheless, it was spectacular. Regardless of your music taste, if you get an opportunity to see her live, you will not be disappointed in her absolute pure talent and the first class show.
Must admit to gettin’ a little misty during this song…
Don’t worry this isn’t turning into some sort of Fanilowish blog. I’ll be back with the boys tomorrow. Until then, FESS UP! What’s YOUR favorite Celine song that you like to belt out to with the vacuum cleaner? =)
I’m glad you got an opportunity to get out of the house and hear Celine! I’ll be looking forward to seeing the boys tomorrow though! 🙂 Are they getting exciting about Christmas?
Girls Night Out – always a good time! Glad that you had fun.

“All By Myself”
I’ve mastered it. 🙂
Because you loved me!
Ohh I love It’s All Coming Back to Me!!
I saw that she was coming to town yesterday and I felt like I totally missed the band wagon. Bummer!
But lucky for you that you got tickets!!
ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL BYYYYYYYYY MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSEEEEEEELLLLLLFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
Complete with air drums, a la Bridget Jones. 🙂
Glad you got to see her! We saw the show in Vegas, and it was great.
Merry Christmas, friend!
Glad you had a night out with a your SIL. Maybe we will be so lucky to sound half as wonderful as Celine Dion when we enter the pearly gates. The pic you got was fabulous. Awesome shot! Hope you guys have a merry Christmas!

Wow! I will be going to see her in January! it’ll be my 2nd time to see her. I am such a HUGE fan. I have all her CDs!! I couldn’t pick one song that I belt out b/c I love to pretend like I can sing as good as she does with all her songs 🙂
I have never posted before but have been following your blog for months. My mom bought my sister and I tickets to see her Celine Dion in concert when she comes to San Antonio in January. I am super stoked!
My favorite songs to sing are “Secret” and “All By Myself”

We actually had a Celine Dion song for our first dance at our wedding. “These are the Special Times.” Its actually on her Christmas CD so I love pulling it out this time of year and hearing it – ESPECIALLY when its just moments of hubby and I – like last night, up late wrapping presents.
So glad you got to go to the concert – what a fantastic gift from your neighbor!
WOW! Good for you! I would love to see her in concert. And yes, her voice is absolutely amazing.
that sounds like a fabulous night! and you more than deserved it 🙂 Merry Christmas sweet friend – love ya!
jz
Oh my word, I could NEVER pick just one favorite!
Love. Her. Glad you got to enjoy that with your SIL! (No, I’m not jealous….)
“Where does my heart beat now?” My absolute favorite! I have always wanted to hear her in concert, but never have been able to. Merry Christmas!
Power of Love or Because You Loved Me
Merry Christmas!
Wow – what a lucky concert go-er you are with very nice neighbors. I got to see Celine last year at her Las Vegas show. She is an amazing PERFORMER! My fave of that show (or one of them) was I’m Alive.
Happy Holidays.

To Love You More!
I’m your lady
such a great song!
I’m so jealous I LOVE Celine! Congrats on the night out and a great one at that.
I don’t think I could pick just one song but now I’m in the mood to go get out my cd’s!
I hate you, then I love you, then I love you, then I hate you, then I love you MORE!:):):) Crazy song but I LOVE it!! She is one of my all time favorites..yes, I am a child of the 80’s!:) I also love the one she sings with the BeeGee’s!:)
“Because you loved me.”
Reminds me of my beloved daddy that I lost to cancer 2 yrs ago..
I love, I Drove All Night, since it is something to dance to. I saw her in Las Vegas, it was one of my favorite concerts.
Oh you HAVE to belt out the “baby, baby” part on “It’s All Coming Back to Me”! 🙂 It’s a rule.
