Born to a large impoverished family, Dion emerged as a teen star in the French-speaking world after her manager and future husband René Angélil mortgaged his home to finance her first record. In 1990, she released the anglophone album Unison, establishing herself as a viable pop artist in North America and other English-speaking areas of the world.
Dion had first gained international recognition in the 1980s by winning both the 1982 Yamaha World Popular Song Festival and the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest.Following a series of French albums in the early 1980s, she signed on to CBS Records Canada in 1986. During the 1990s, with the help of Angélil, she achieved worldwide fame after signing with Epic Records and releasing several English albums along with additional French albums, becoming one of the most successful artists in pop music history. However, in 1999 at the height of her success, Dion announced a temporary retirement from entertainment in order to start a family and spend time with her husband, who had been diagnosed with cancer.She returned to the top of pop music in 2002 and signed a three-year (later extended to almost five years) contract to perform nightly in a five-star theatrical show at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas.
After performing in 25 countries during the Taking Chances World Tour which ended in February 2009 (one year after it began) she took another 2 year hiatus, focusing on expanding her family. After 6 in-vitro tries she gave birth to twin boys Nelson and Eddy in October 2010. In the meantime she announced her return to Vegas, her new show simply named "Céline" premièred on March 15th 2011 to spectacular reviews by media and audience.
Dion's music has been influenced by genres ranging from rock and R&B to gospel and classical. While her releases have often received mixed critical reception, she is renowned for her technically skilled and powerful vocals. Dion is the best selling Canadian artist of all time; and her album D'eux is the best selling francophone album of all time. Dion is regarded as one of pop music's most influential voices. Linda Lister describes Dion as a reigning Queen of Pop for her influence over the record industry during the 1990s. On a cultural level, Dion is credited for introducing francophone music to many non-francophone countries around the globe. Dion is also credited for both revitalizing and revolutionizing the entertainment scene in Las Vegas with the gargantuan successes of her residencies there. She managed to re-popularize the Las Vegas "residency" as a desirable way for top artists to essentially tour in place, letting their fans come to them. Over the years, fellow established icons such as Britney Spears, Elton John, Bette Midler, Rod Stewart, Cher and Shania Twain followed suit.
Comment T'Aimer
Céline Dion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Le roman de la rose
Le goût et la couleur des choses
Je les connaît déjà
Ne me raconte pas
Roméo et Juliette
L'histoire de la Belle et la Bête
Dis-moi plutôt comment t'aimer
Ce qu'il faut faire pour te garder
J'entends ta voix parler de tout
Je n'entends pas parler de nous
Plus loin que trois mots à se dire
Plus fort qu'un moment de plaisir
Et plus longtemps qu'un seul été
Je veux savoir comment t'aimer
do sable entre les mains
Le froid d'un feu d'hier
Un peu de neige en fin d'hiver
Voilà ce que je tiens
Alors dis-moi comment t'aimer
Ce qu'il faut faire pour te garder
Larmes si je vivais sans toi
Rires le jour où je te vois
Plus loin que le dernier soleil
Plus fort encore que l'arc-en-ciel
Et plus longtemps qu'un seul été
Je veux savoir comment t'aimer
Je veux savoir comment t'aimer
Je veux savoir comment t'aimer
Comment t'aimer.
The lyrics to Celine Dion's song Comment T'Aimer express a desire for honesty and authenticity in a romantic relationship. The singer is tired of hearing cliched stories of love and instead wants to know how to love their partner in the most sincere and effective way possible. The singer acknowledges that they have experienced love and understand its many facets, but they still don't know how to properly love their partner. They plead for their partner to tell them what they need to do to keep their love strong, highlighting the importance of communication and openness in a relationship.
The lyrics also draw attention to the small things in life that hold true value and meaning, such as holding something precious (represented by "do sable entre les mains"), the coldness of a past fire, and the beauty of a late winter snowfall. These images symbolize the singer's desire to hold onto their love and create memories that will last beyond a single season.
Overall, the song captures the vulnerability and sincerity of someone seeking to understand and deepen their romantic connection. The lyrics are a call for truthfulness and openness in love, and a reminder to cherish the small moments and details that create a lasting bond.
