Concert Review: Celine Dion Conquers Manila in Two Sold Out Shows
It used to be that we had to go abroad just to watch our favorite performers but times are a-changing as many top acts now see Manila as a viable stop during their concert tours.
Ten years ago, during her Taking Chances tour, Celine did a show at the Venetian Macau and it was the first time we saw her live - and although the largely Chinese audience was very polite and not very outwardly demonstrative - Celine gave a show-stopping performance.
It was also surreal watching the mainland Chinese audience dressed to the nines, with women wearing mink fur coats and top to bottom branded clothes, kulang na lang pati panty nakalagay Gucci.
Oh well, it was also a well-heeled crowd last night, the second of her two shows here in Manila. You never get tired of watching Celine because she's such a seasoned performer, she knows how to talk to the audience and segue into songs with such ease.
And there's her voice! While many of her contemporaries have let go - and did not really take care of their gift - Celine has certainly taken care of hers!
Even in her less famous songs like 'Falling Into You' and 'ThinkTwice' the way she sang it is like you're in her own recording studio and not in a huge concert arena!
Some new singers now I can barely hear them from the din of their bands, but with Celine, no problem!
There were so many highlights from last night's show. She even danced a bit to 'Falling Into You'. I'm sure Laura liked 'Beauty and the Beast' and her version is far more superior to the one Ariana did, live or otherwise.
She did all her big hits - "It's All Coming Back to Me', 'To Love You More', 'Because You Loved Me', but there are still many other good songs of hers which I hope she would do during her Las Vegas residency because her discography is so deep.
Songs like 'Water from the Moon', 'Where Does My Heart Beat Now'. 'Nothing's Broken But My Heart', 'The Last to Know', her duet with Barbra Streisand, 'Only One Road', 'If You Asked Me To', she can do another show with an entirely different setlist! But that's for the future and maybe a few tweets to her would make her consider performing those songs.
