  • it's song for all dadies of the world

  • Ela não é a cara do Michael Shumacker?

  • I love Celine!!!! this is one of my favorite songs!!!!

  • i love her voice at the end, it's filled with so much emotion, and i can see that celine is thinking about her child in this song!

  • Remember, without John Lennon this wouldn't of happened. He was the song-writer that created this song, and through him and Sean Lennon, this song and it's legacy lives on.

  • 2:27-2:29 that was amazing, how the hell did she do that?Celine can make her voice sound like anything she wants.

  • love this song i play it for my baby boy alot he smiles everytime he hears it jordon is a beautiful boy he dont know how lucky he is to be here after being 5 weeks preemie and everything else he has been through

  • @lrh0201 I hope you play him Johns song and not this one.

  • love this song i play it for my baby boy alot

  • love this song i play it for my baby boy alot

  • My sister bought me this cd, along w/ a blue CD player right after I had my Aidan - such happy memories - all the nurses loved hearing it over and over : )

  • TAKE A KAYAK!!!!

  • y aqui la gran version del clasico del Double Fantasy Ea Ea..

  • she cocked the words up the ugly Canadian bitch

  • I LOVE This. I love the john lennon one too. but as a mummy, I love the "mummy" version better ;)

  • FUCK OFF SEA LION............HOW DARE YOU RUIN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL TUNE

  • @DangerouBeanz SHUT UP! SHE CAN SING WHATEVER SHE WANTS!!

  • @DangerouBeanz hahaha SEA LION!! You said it!

  • i put my son to sleep with this song every night!

  • My sister got me this CD and a great player when my Aidan was born in 11/04 - I played it incessantly and the nurses on the floor all loved it too - sooo beautiful. She is amazing - haters are jealous of her perfect voice in my humble opinion.

  • I wish she just left this song alone... John is five trillion times better at this song

  • As if she has destroyed this song in such a terrible way

  • I can hardly to see you come of age 

  • John did it better. 

  • 38 people don't haven't a beautiful boy...

  • I bet she reworked this song for her three boys. It's not as good as the original though. John put a lot more feeling into this song.

  • I love it! I love heeeer! Celine's amazing

  • she is beautiful

  • I think her remake is fantastic.

  • beautiful!!!

  • This is beautiful, she sings it with so much heart i love it so much. I dont know how someone can not like it, they just must be jeolous.(:

  • what is wrong with these ppl? yall need to get the hell over john dying... she sounds reallly good and ye john's was "better" but yall need to get over it ....Damn yall so stupid!

  • Céline did a good job singing this John Lennon song. It was in the movie "Mr. Holland's Opus" with Richard Dreyfuss as the music teacher and has a deaf son who he sang this to.

  • I know that this is one of Paul McCartneys favorit songs from John lennon..

  • BEAUTIFUL SONG

  • celine dion is fantastic this is fantastic some people just piss me off with comments like them grrrr

  • good cover of John Lennon's wonderful song.

  • Beautitful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful voice!!!!!! I LOVE CELINE DION!!! She is the best!

  • @xxxCELINEDIONFANxxx I do Love her, and her voice too, but she's not better than John Lennon and The Beatles ! ♥

  • @JohnPaulRingoGeorges

    I like John Lennon and the Beatles but I don't think their voices are better than Celine's. They are good but I think their voices are all equally good. But I do agree that John Lennon and The Beatles are very talented. I just don't think it is right to compare singers/bands. Especially comparing female vocalists and Male vocalists. I think it is a waste of time to compare them because they are all good or else they wouldn't have made it into the music indrustry. <3:)

  • @xxxCELINEDIONFANxxx  i know right she is the best!!!

  • I am a artist so I know critics. Their parasites. None of them have their own work. Their life is trash and sadness. If I had a favorate I would like someone to say, "I like that" so I could watch it. When art is analyzed to a large extent it's ruined. Lot of Art is really words. One artist left a canvas blank and that was his art. I took lessons from some guy(and his wife) I thought was a pig. Daddy left huge donation and he is now the head of the department! Youtube changes this sometimes.

  • Loving this version of this song! her cd is AWESOME!

  • life is what happens to you ,while your busy making other plans... great cover celine, rip john

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah just like I suppose Janis Joplin ruined Bobby McGee because it was 'supposed' to be sung by a man?!?!

  • Fantastico!

  • this is okay. John is still the best. Congrats to her for not spoiling such a great song from john unlike what most other artists would do.

  • i agree but i would rather for fathers to sing this. cuz face it women write their kids songs all the time and this is the one song we can dedicate to our sons when we have kids and when we pass our sons can sons can say my dad said this song was meant for me. you know

  • try "put it there" by paul mccartney

  • this song makes me cry

  • she is just awesome...

    i wish she sings such lovely and beautifull songs all her life..

    may Jesus bless you celine

  • she made it sound like a real lullaby - such an angelic voice!!!

  • this is a great rendition!!!!!! respect it as another version. cmon so many other songs are sung from different singers. so whats wrong with this one??

  • She made it sounds georgeous, graceful and so relaxing. This woman can sing anything.

  • being "the best selling female artist", or whatever -doesn't give her the right to fuck up classics like this! RIP John Lennon

  • well done celine u have single handedely fucked up a classic john lennon song

    Peace John Lennon RIP

  • @foovana2802 Did she change it? No. Did she mess up the words? No. She just sang it, ok? You're the one that's "fucked" by watching it.

  • If you don't like it DONT WATCH IT, it's that simple.

  • this is wrong and sacreligious!!!!! it has to be some kinda law to stop people like Celine Dion record and release songs like this. R.I.P. John.

  • @giabeatlemaniac "Sacreligious"??? Obviously not a Celine Dion fan. Many people have remade songs of celebrities/singers that have passed on in honour of them and/or the meaning behind the song. I think Celine does a great job... She (obviously) was thinking of Rene-Charles at that point. Good job Celine, I love you (a Canadian fan). Je t'aime Celine!

  • she is a very good singer, but John's version soundsway better, i think mainly cause it camefrom his heart when he sang it. thats just me if you don't agree thats ok..

  • he wrote it for his beautiful boy. :)

  • I have to correct myself everything I said below this posting is exactly the way I want it 2 b. Except this is John Lennon's song not Jeff Buckley covering a Leonard Cohen song. Aside from that she still sucks really bad, but a really nice version of this song is sung by Ben Harper.

  • She's a legend. She's the best selling female artist ever. So what you said obviously isn't true. I love her so much!

  • who dah fuck is j.Buckley n u r a medicore it sound good not as good as john Lennon but she is like a good singer

  • thats what she's good at

  • Beautiful vocals notwithstanding, I prefer Lennon's version.

    Also, this is lipsync - you can tell from the doubletrack during chorus.

  • there's nothing this woman won't desecrate. HAVING SAID THAT....I used to love her LOL

  • Its ludicrous to compare the two.

    This is a really good performance by Celine. Certainly one of my favourite's from Miracle! :)

  • Still doesn't beat John Lennon. John Lennon > Celine Dion.

  • omg i luv the end!!! lennon is still the best at this song though...but she still does a really nice job

  • Lennon version es unique it can even make you cry, celine version is just another song

  • true. she sux

  • Why are people arguing over who sings it best? Lennon would've wanted his song to go on after his death. He would've loved other artists sharing it.

  • Celine is the best ..

  • shes cool except when she sings this song ......Lennon's version is much better.

  • Dear You Tubers

    Nobody's Perfect you know! If it's Celine or John's version is better? remember NOBODY'S PERFECT! :0 :) :D

    BeatlesRockumentary Peace & LOVE !!!!!!!!!

  • she has a good voice but no one can beat john lennon

  • @iloveshittyassholes i am a huge beatles fan, i love so many songs of theirs. but celine knocked this one out of the park. this is one of the rare times that a remake beats the original. 

  • @sobeautiful24f Yeah, so?

  • @iloveshittyassholes

    Really ? Listen to " Her " version of Imagine ! Now THAT'S a STUNNING re-make, i think...

  • ooooooooh, what's the matter boys,

    Celine takes this song to a new level and as usual her version is BETTER, WAY BETTER... just face it CELINE ROCKS, her talent is without limit - but don't worry, she is honoring him by singing this so lay off - - CELINE IS #1

  • Dude really. I like this version but she doesn't top the original version by John Lennon.

  • holy shit.......

  • john is 1000000000000 time better !

  • fuck you!

  • JOHN IS BETTER!

  • crap song

  • i don't like this

  • Why can't artists stick 2 there songs and stop making amazing songs crap

  • stupid bitch, who does she think she is singing a lennon song, the guys a legend shes nothing to him, she shouldnt be allowed to sing his song, she ruins it

  • no way!

    lennon fever!

    XD

    xx

  • Obclem, your a skank shut the fuck up!! Stop tying to be hard and shocking. Your a sado that needs to get a life, how immature i feel sorry for you!

  • oh how you reflect  lennon's philosophy. how beautiful, just a beautiful boy you are.

  • its not "your mommy's here" ? john lennon !!!!!!

  • why ruin such a good song?

  • Agreed. What garbage.

  • oh please, would you cry about any other cover or just when you lennon feelings are hurt?

  • Yeah, if it was covered as horribly as this one.

  • Crap, You lennon supporters are as pitifully naive as was John himself

  • how is that naive? its true

  • Just read all the comments by the lennon fans, you'll see a consistent refusal to be tolerant and accepting. Most of the comments are HOSTILE and try to DENIGRATE the other artists. How UNLIKE lennon's own life philosophy.

    Naive = YES

  • i dont think anyone is trying to denigrate anyone as you think...i admit there are artists who cover his songs fabulously but there are others like this one who butcher it.. so there its naive its true...naive is not seeing truth

  • oh, and that would be YOUR truth. Now I understand what all of you are talking about.

  • I don't know about that. I HATE this version. This is supposed to be a lullaby, and she's belting it out like it's some sort of a rock song.

  • john forever into our hearts

  • its realy Live cause there is much deferent between thios version and the studio one

  • Is there anything on which this woman won't inflict her mediocre talents?

  • Wow...she just pretty much shat all over this great Lennon song!

  • Fucking awful!

  • i love john version obviously

    but cmon give her a thumbs up

    she's a fan!!!!

    cmon ppl she loves john!

    i LIKE celine but who cares?!?!?

  • ok i have never liked celine dion. i hate this cover. ppl shouldnt cover songs like this. she should stop covering his songs. the beatles were the greatest band that was ever formed. obama is the shit. john and george should still be alive. johns version is better. that bastard shouldnt have stabbed george. mark chapman can go fuck a goat. peace would be a nice thing to have in this world. war sucks. i still hate this cover and her.

    those are a few of my opinions that i thought should be shared

  • You want peace and yet you say

    "that bastard shouldnt have stabbed george. mark chapman can go fuck a goat"

    That's counter productive lol

  • Beautiful,beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, job Celine.

  • I liked it... Celine just express her admiration for John...

  • I love John's version it's more emotional and meaningful.

    I never been a fan of Celine Dion, and therefore don't like this at all.

  • THANK YOU! haha finally some1 sees what im saying...even though this comment wasnt directed to mine

  • très bonne chanson bon cover par Céline good job

  • Stop Posting stupid comments and respect Johnnys Talent,like Celine has,

    Thank You "patty7beth"

  • I love John's version, but it's almost painful to hear it because it's so heartbreaking that "the monster" wasn't gone and took John away from his little boy.

    Celine sings this very beautifully, and it's a love song to her only son as well, so I don't think she deserves to be called a "B" or told to "burn in hell" for covering it.

    A lot of parents felt this song spoke to them.

    No need to trash her for feeling the same.

    Great songs speak to people's hearts.

  • every cover, doesn't matter who sing it would hear bad, because nobody will ever be like john lennon, maybe exept his sons...

  • lol not trying to be mean but has anyone noticed that when normal everyday ppl cover songs it sounds way better than celebrity covers? or is it just me?

  • i have

  • awesome its not just me

  • a bad cover version!

  • Celine stayed true to John's version (it ain't hip hopped) and is truly lovely. I used to play this for my son and it means a lot to me. My 'beautiful boy' is now 26 and getting married. I couldn't use the John version for my mother of the groom song, so this is perfect. Thank you.

  • c'mon guyz, be an open minded, this just proves the celine is also a big fan of john like us.

  • ure a knob

    its a sign of respect for John that she covered one of his most beautiful songs

    Twat!

  • I don't mind that she sings it...she sounds good...however the poster needs to acknowledge Lennon as the writer in the info section

  • I love John, but I have to agree with whoever said that John didn't see his son grow up. At least this woman means what he sings! I'm a single mom, and my salute goes to Celine for giving me a song to sing to my sons, whom I AM seeing and helping them grow.

  • this isnt her fucking song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that bitch took johns song! it would be 1 thing if it was like she loves you or something but this was about HIS son not her. BITCH! I HATE HER NOW!!!!

  • HELLLLLL NO!!!!!!!!!! dumb ass u dont know shit about music

  • her version is better than john lennon's????? are you completely devoid of feeling? good god

  • Dumbass, don't pretend you know anything more about music than we do. We all have different opinions. She was showing her respect for John by covering this song. NO ONE can "take" his music.

  • cant stand this woman,so now shes stealing john lennons music, she sounds like shit, she doesnt sing it with compassion like Mr. Lennon.

  • This is such a love filled song, and you can tell that John would do anything for Sean, its a shame he couldn't really see him grow.

    We love you John. RIP

  • FUCK YOU BITCH...Leave John Lennon alone...Your voice is horrible...fuck...

  • Georgi, darling....

  • lmao what would you know about being a true artist gabeeota

  • i really don't like celine dion's cover

  • fuck Celine dion!!!

    Fuck Will young and "his" fuckin version of Light my fire by Jim morrison.

    FUCK COVERS!!!!!

    Celine Dion sing like a Barbie orgasm...

  • oh come on... is about parental love...

    whatever

    theres no genres...

    it is strange how you dare to judge the intentions of lennon when you all know he was an open minded man.

    he made it personal he is a man singing it so his son...but theres no limits to it...did he ever say there was? i dont think so,

    TRUE ARTISTS DONT THINK THAT WAY.

    you can sing this to a friend...to your brother..to your lover...you take out it "daddy" and the "Sean" which are the things that make it personal to lennon

  • true but it is one of the few songs about a father and son relationship and the relationship a son has with their father is different then the one they have with their mothers

  • I play this song sometimes for my 2 yr old son and I. The original song that is. I just feel that John intended this as a Father and Son song. I'm sure she's awesome and all (don't listen to her tunes) but turning it into a mother and son song...well, it's not too difficult to find different reasons to not like this.

  • Hm, well I am sorry that you begrudge 50% of all parents the ability to sing this song from a mother's perspective. Does Celine Dion's singing have some strange long distance effect on your relationship with your son? If not, then please, don't randomly criticize our artists.

  • i agree with misaac. this song is about a father's love for his son. celine tried, but it just doesn't have the same emotion, she kills it.

  • beautiful song...

    loveyou john

  • This is a discrace

  • agreed

  • This song has so much meaning for me. I have a 4 year old godson called Billy-Ray and this is the song i dedicated to him on his chrisening.

  • shut up bitch how dare you insult john lennon.

  • joe99f1: f.u

  • i hate those poppy drums...

  • nice to hear in form of mother singing it but something missing i feel!i have to say john version has more emotions and more heartfelt much better all round rellay !

  • ruined a Beautiful song...

  • AND she ruined the ending!

    Don't sing the song if you're going to change the "Darling sean.." at the end. That's the best part!

  • John's classic song to Sean..

    ruined. :/

    Thanks for ruining my favorite song, Celine. Only one person should ever sing these words, and that is John Lennon.

  • John sang it so much better and when he sang it it came from his heart .

    I hate how she ruined the ending

    this song was a special written for sean and i hate when people taking because it was his song

  • Uhmm it was john lennon who performed it not the beatles and he wrote it for his son Sean, celine dion just sings it she doesnt but heart in it

  • I'm not a Celine fan,and "Beautiful Boy" is one of Lennon's greatest works, but I see her putting every ounce of true emotion she's got into this; a wonderful tribute. I for one think it would've rocked John's sox off! He would love that people were moved enough to want to sing this special song themselves, in sympathy with him,showing love for their own "Beautiful Boys/Girls", because John was not a selfish or hateful man; he wanted more gentleness and caring from all of us, towards all of us!

  • The Beatles and Celine both kicked ass on this song. I really love this song, She makes it even more "Beautiful" haha.

  • She has a son... what is your problem, she is a singer, she likes other singers and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.... she has nothing to prove, if anyone is to sing a song- would you not have the best do it vs. some idiot-- CELINE IS THE BEST -PROVEN FACT -she's got the numbers man!

  • this is hollow

  • i guess shes ok, and no offense she stole that from John Lennon, and i think it would be his wish to have the song just between him and sean...
