HAPPY BIRTHDAY Céline Dion
Celine Dion is a highly influential Canadian singer who is known for her powerful and emotive vocals. Referred to as the “Queen of Power Ballads”, she gained international fame (in 1990) with her breakthrough album, “Unison”. However, it was her 1991 performance of the theme song for “Beauty and the Beast” that propelled her to global stardom.
Some of her other hit songs include “Because You Loved Me”, “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now”, “The Power of Love”, and today’s song choice. Throughout her career, she has won numerous Juno awards, and a total of 6 Grammys.
