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.
Natural Woman
Céline Dion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I used to feel uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Oh it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
And I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Oh till your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful
Of what I'm livin' for
'Cause if I make you happy
I don't need to do more
'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman, oh
Oh baby what you've done to me
You make me feel so good inside
And I, I just want to be close to you
Because you make me feel so alive
Oh what you've done to me, oh baby
Close to you because you make me feel
So alive
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel
Like a natural woman
(You make me feel)
Oh baby what you do to me
Can make me feel so good inside
I just want to be, I just want to be
I love what you've done
(Natural woman) woman

Lookin' out on the morning rain
Reflecting on a gloomy situation
I used to feel uninspired
Having no motivation
And when I knew I had to face another day
Feeling burdened by the repetition of life
Oh it made me feel so tired
Exhausted mentally and emotionally
Before the day I met you
Before finding someone special
Life was so unkind
Life was cruel and harsh
But you're the key to my peace of mind
Finding inner peace and happiness through love
'Cause you make me feel
You have a positive influence on me
Like a natural woman
Empowered and confident in my femininity
When my soul was in the lost and found
Feeling lost and directionless in life
You came along to claim it
Finding purpose and direction through love
And I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Unable to identify personal issues
Oh till your kiss helped me name it
Receiving clarity and understanding through love
Now I'm no longer doubtful
Having confidence and clarity
Of what I'm livin' for
Aware of my purpose in life
'Cause if I make you happy
Finding fulfillment in making my partner happy
I don't need to do more
Nothing more is required for happiness
Oh baby what you've done to me
Expressing gratitude for a positive impact on life
You make me feel so good inside
Bringing happiness and contentment from within
And I, I just want to be close to you
Wanting to be close emotionally and physically
Because you make me feel so alive
Feeling invigorated and energized in love
Oh what you've done to me, oh baby
Repeating thanks for a positive influence
Close to you because you make me feel
Seeking closeness because of a positive impact
So alive
Feeling inspired and energized by love
You make me feel
Affirming a positive influence
Like a natural woman
Feeling empowered and confident in femininity
