Celine Dion singing All By Myself while being sick (Phoenix Dec.6, 2008)

[biancadotlovemeryl]

I'm a big big big fan of Celine dion.

But you can hear at 1:12 , 2 voices from celine, because that part is lipped! It is true?!

But we can understand it. She's sick here..?

but i love her !

[kylejnicholson]

the DRAMA!

[zedfuentes]

yeah people are just jealous, they cant accept that celine dion was an icon, you can hear her breathing at 1:05 a prove that she is singing it live, and at 1:10-1:11 you can hear her voice struggling to hit the note because she's sick. we cant blame the people who are making bad things about celine, maybe they are uneducated person who grew up in a environment of being jealous and not having any attention and respect that celine is having now because of her great work and marvelous voice.

[mannycampas]

shes so humble and doesnt like all the attention the crowd gave her haha thats a TRUE artist!

[lereclusebrun]

LIPPED !

[elyrat]

She is so professional, though she is sick but still she manage to do the show...and perform even at a great risk...

[jarredondo12]

Whoever thinks this is playback is really dumb. She is the greatest even when sick. Most of you who think you know something about music give me a break you can sing if you have a sore throat, bronchitis, etc. Please, leave Celine is the greatest! Love you Celine!

[stardusth2o]

Why would people say this was playback? So she just records herself in the studio to make herself sound bad? Also if it was lipped, she wouldn't have been crying after the show thinking she totally screwed up. Just face it, she's better than you haters.

[packerette14]

it's not playback, it's sure..listen her voice, it's not great, she's ill and we can hear that ^^ Celine's THE greatest singer of all time, she doesn t need playback, and Z3R0FIR3 right, she was shocked, she cry after the show, she's disappointed...She's a true singer

[NickyVassi]

In the high note, they use half playback.

[EthMan09]

@NickyVassi yeah, you can hear a lapse in her voice as the playback comes on

[NickyVassi]

@EthMan09 I love Celine!!! But this is lip synch in the high note. (may be recorded on the same day), sorry!

[hilaryduffe03]

She obviously lip synch the high note, just listen carefully.

and take a look at this song from different concert... ALL THE SAME.

she's a great performer, but she sometimes use lip synch .

[EidahageFeroe]

For those of you who thinks she is lip-syncing, you can hear very slight 'cracky' sounds as she sings. It was real, she is just too damned good!

[LiquidGold93]

I love Celine and she's the greatest singer in th world.

But this was lip singing!

Proof: youtube.com/watch?v=_eymmDf6TZ­c&feature=related

That's a little burn to yah all!

You can hear it over and over again.. it's the same! But still amazing..

[olemra17]

@cabaretcorrupt Cause is not another voice is just a backing track to help Celine cause she was sick is not lipssynced is just an old recording like a chorus to help her and everyone use it.. LO=ove you Celine!

[Sing4Paula]

She did great!

[Gudulpif]

@cabaretcorrupt I only hear one :S

[tbhall12]

People beleive she lip syncs because her voice is so unbelievabily good! No other artist can sing like she does!

[vanouche23]

Impressionnant....woawe! J'ai des frissons chaque fois que je la vois chanter cette note =P

[Jeffieboi]

So see...Whitney can't use the excuse "oh I was sick so that's why I sounded like shit." Cuz Celine was sick and look how amazing the high notes were. 2010 Whitney's high notes aren't even high. Men can sing them in chest voice.

[SuperBullet]

If you think Celine lipsynchs, you should worry about all other singers out there who dance while singing!! THEY DON'T SING LIVE! But Celine can belt any of her songs live at any time. And there is probably less than 10% of singers nowadays who can actually claim to be able to do so. Have you ever hear some of Celine's recording session? Now that's the main proof right there. Most artists are "studio artists" who need the help of technology, but not this woman!! Celine is a true talent!

[hbtg01]

I aaagreee 100! thanks a lot for pointing these facts out.

[tigreeuh]

Now F*UCK that peoples say she mades playback ..

[PsuedoSenator]

Hmmm...who knew that Muhammad Ali was a Celine Dion fan? LOL..the world gets smaller and smaller everyday.

[flamingbartman]

this is proof that she sings live,

[mbsbrfalw15]

Im really pleased this video is on here i really think it shows people who constantly argue that shes lip syncing that they are wrong, you can clearly here problems in her voice and the difference in note length etc, i think its fantastic that she went on!

[tigronok58]

This is fucking live, I mean listen to this one then to another one and you can really hear her voice is sick that night. But I am sure that all those people talking about a fake note are opera singers or sound checkers.....

[serenedijon]

she's just too good; and then she pays the price..."a fake","a lip syncher",a fraud....you name it she's been called it;and for what?...for just being so damn good....the soundchecks give the lie to all those jerks who call her fake...how the hell she can belt out those power ballads from that waif like body is beyond me..... a few feet away from me at the Paris soundcheck she sang with no backing whatsoever.......jawdropping; I do not think she knows just how good she is.....

[BritneyHeart12]

a true artist

[charlesffff]

is it live?

[hapigal101]

charlesffff:

Duh it's live. u can obviously hear the cracks and strains in her voice while she was singing that high note.

[godessceline]

twenty-seven years in the business and she still takes it so hard when her voice doesn't want top cooperate...that's the sign of a true artist. My God, I love her. <3 I love the look on ehr face when she hits that note, like she's surprised by it...and the "come on!!" she mouths at the end..amazing. A true trouper indeed.

[free2bfierce]

PURE artistry

[MonsieurDarkBlood]

lipsych would have been usefull for this time...

[124bjw]

This lip-synching issue is getting so oooollllddd. Can't people just appreciate how the incredible miles she has put on those stratavarias vocal chords or illness or whatever can take its toll on her voice. If it's dubbed it has to be dubbed with her own voice since no one and I mean no one can sound like her...Thank you God for the one and only CELINE!

[BritneyHeart12]

she's a godess

[olemra17]

It's obviously that is Live

But WHO CARE'S IF IT'S LIVE OR NOT HELLO IS CELINE

[rosales1984]

One can perfectly notice when the high note starts that there is a backing track going in, right before "...anymoooooore." I went to see Celine to two concerts (Taking Chances Tour) and I am pretty sure I Drove All Night, It's All Coming Back to Me Now and the high notes of The Power of Love were not live.

[mirko301]

OMG...finally someone smart!!!!!! all her concerts Taking Chances Tour,all songs are not live...good for you!!

[CClealuidnetete]

Stop posting idiotic comments on every Celine video. You are talking bullshit and you know it!

[scotsmak]

@rosales1984 One can perfectly notice you do not have a true trained ear lol

[MusicalWizard77]

That was live, i noted that in the way her voice sounded,

[zivzivify]

WOW! YOU GO GIRL!!!!

[Z3R0FiR3]

Celine is awesome! I don't believe she lip synced that. C'mon, by her expression she was shocked she would even hit that note with her voice half gone.

[insideurheaven]

her dad must have been looking out for her!! LOVE CELINE!!!

[SmileyFan29]

To those people who pulls celine down.. Look, if majority believes that she was only lipping most of the time, then why all of her concerts were SOLD OUT? come to think of it, maybe other people agreed with you but they still chose and want to see Celine in person because they like Celine..and they love celine no matter what..

[ngb00]

This is obviously LIVE. I listened to many other ABMs from the TC Tour, this DOES SOUND different and abit constrained, which was due to her illness

[labidia]

love this vid but the woman talking in the backround was sooooooo anoying lol

celine dion rocks!!!!!

[joshkent350]

i know celine sings live but just to make sure i bought a software to test if she is lipping or not and i got more impressed she sings LIVE!!! OMG! She is extraordinary! After singing in vegas for 5 consecutive years and went on your this tour and she has still the most amazing voice ive heard. Hope she bears a daughter who will inherit her voice. Love Celine's entire wolrd tour.

[petergriffin9901]

my guess that was said at 1:26-1:38

celine-pheeew,i think i fooled them

lady-the lipped part was very obvious

celine-shit,how could i screw up,fuck,fuck,fuck,fuck!!

[brandiecher909]

well peter you can try to accuse her and make up lies to bring her down because she is the BEST of all time and she has remained her vocal power unlike your idol! LOL. Millions of people know she sings LIVE. Way to go Celine

[ch3v4li3r]

Learn french. that is far far away of what she actually said.

[petergriffin9901]

the only bad part is she always lipps it,not just this time

[brandiecher909]

Well, it is you robbery82 who need to do your research about her. It is sooo flattering on her part that some detractors like you think she is lipping. just shows how extraordinary she is. Way to go Celine. We love you!

[mcjl232]

she still rocked that show!!

[ClayToris008]

in this video it is clearly live. great singers even if they have throat problems/infections can still sing though not as great as if they are well. it is because they are singing from their diaphragm. which is a great thing

[ClayToris008]

I used to believe Celine lips because her singing live is perfectly brilliant! But when my cousin brought me to see her perform live just like 10 meters away my GOd i was blown away! There were like 10 of us VERY lucky who has seen her do rehearsals and GOD she easily hits her notes. on her rehearsals she sang like 13 songs because she took a break and we can truly tell it is live because she giggles at times in the middle of the songs or talks but her voice is just like in the album. goosebumps

[realitysucks2009]

robbery82 is my idol!!! and he sucks cocks! he loves to get fucked in the ass. I am a TRUE CERTIFIED FAN of robbery82

[brandiecher909]

roberry82 you are funny! hahaha stop pretending to be her fan! LOL Just because she is extraordinary and your idol whoever she is cant do what Celine can it doesnt mean it is impossible. That makes Celine even more impressive. She has got a very powerful voice and she sings LIVE in her concerts even in her Vegas shows. She would lose her credibility not only to her fans but to her staff is she lips. Singers would lip in tv guestings because pay is small. But in concerts, vegas shows, it's LIVE

[feveroo7]

OH GOD I MA TIRED OF THIS FAKE STUPID PESSIMIST FANS...GET THE F O H....ISN'T IT livE...STUPID...WHO IS DOING LIVE BETTER WHEN HE/SHE IS NOT SICK....TELL ME...???HA???? who...SHE WAS SICK BUT STILL GREAT PERFORMANCE, WHAT IF SHE WASN'T SICK...OH GOD.!!!

THIS ""fANS""" JUST PISS ME OFF,,,GET THE FOH

[rick197]

arrete de brailler ton anymore is lipser

stop crying you big note is lipsinking

bonne actrice

good actress

[luigimanzanares]

How dare you say she lipsynch all her shows? You are a fake fan, It's just like saying "Im really a big fan of roberry82 but he really sucks"

It's nothing personal but I can't see a better way of putting it.

[roberry82]

no, it's not being a fake fan, it's being a real person, just like she is, flaws and all. she's been lipping during all her concerts since the mid-nineties. sure, I wish it were all live, but it's not gonna happen. we all deal with it, talk about it, comment on it and move on.

[luigimanzanares]

Those cracks in her voice are unique to this performance!!! Listen to 1:12 (shaky), 1:16 (crack) 1:35 (shaky, 1:47 (strained), 1:52 (crack), 1:54 (high note ending. If you can prove that it's lipped, I'll jump of a building. Weird face huh? You don't how to sing, changing your face changes the way you sound. Got it? She's a pop singer who has taken cared and trained her voice well like an opera singer.

[ClayToris008]

Try watching Celine's concert tour 2008-2009 in other locations where she was not sick and you will all be AMAZED! She has got this very high and powerful voice. multitalented woman1 her world tour is a big success! OMG i am so proud of her. brilliant!

[brandiecher909]

roberry82 you are funny. millions of people know she sings live in concerts. she would lose her credibility if she lips in concerts. and everyone in her staff and along with millions or even billions of her fans know that and adore her. you can try to say anything you want. you are whining because your idol cant do what celine can. LOL i wonder why she still listens to celine hahaha got nothing else to do because your idol is history? ahaha

[roberry82]

If you'd done a little homework, you'd have noticed Celine IS my favorite. But she's no idol; she's a human and does in fact lip sync at all her shows. Deal with it.

[ClayToris008]

STILL the BEST singer of all time! She has been doing ToNS of live concerts and she mastered her skills in singing and dancing gracefully at the same time in Vegas. Talked to some critics and people with her and they attested she sings live in her concerts. To sing even if you are sick or having throat problems, is VERY brave and remarkable. She can always do it though. Very witty, sincere, great sense of humor and on HUMILITY. more power Celine!

[rick197]

moi aussi ca me generait surtout quand la note est lipped mais cest quand meme la meilleure

[nataliechiara8602]

i dont think its lipped. she cracked the big note!

[celinedion57155]

I totally agree with you! I'm glad to see that we ear the same thing!!

[Aneczka5]

I don't care what happened there just know she can do it

and she doesn't have to prove anything to me

Love her so much

[48412J]

her voice cracks at the beggining and also in the end again ! so it is live

[CelineDionVideo]

I didn't say that the whole song was lipped! Just the big note "anymore" that's it, the rest is live!

[CelineDionVideo]

The high note "anymore" is not live, I'm a 100% sure of that. It's ALWAYS the same during each concert, I totally agree with you celineliver112, and in plus, she makes a weird face when she does that note that doesn't look natural to me. Watch early versions of All By Myself, when it was completely live, the high note is NEVER the same and her face is not like the one she does now.

[ch3v4li3r]

Come on ! You can HEAR her voice broking during the note ! ( At least you could hear it when it was live at Star Académie in Quebec)

[luigimanzanares]

Those cracks in her voice are unique to this performance!!! Listen to 1:12 (shaky), 1:16 (crack) 1:35 (shaky, 1:47 (strained), 1:52 (crack), 1:54 (high note ending. If you can prove that it's lipped, I'll jump of a building. Weird face huh? You don't how to sing, changing your face changes the way you sound. Got it? She's a pop singer who has taken cared and trained her voice like an opera singer.

[CelineDionVideo]

Wouah, don't take it so bad... it's not that big a deal! But here is my answer: I just said that the big "anymore" was not live,not the rest of the song. The rest of the song is completely live, that's why you can hear the "cracks" and everything that you wrote. I know Celine since she's a kid, since her first record in France, believe me I know all of her faces and moves!And I love her!I do'nt care if she does some of her songs lipped,

[roberry82]

I agree. The "ANYMORE" is for sure from a vocal track. you can hear her voice and the vocal track start [crank up the sound and you can hear "anymore" start twice], then the vocal track takes over. The rest of the performance was live, but not even Celine would risk people being disappointed in this song for messing up on the big note that everyone is waiting for. She's not dumb. She knows the rest of the song could be crap, but that one single word makes the entire performance.

[CelineDionVideo]

It's a shame but I don't care because I know what she is capable of and what the amazing things she can do with her voice. I found one example of All by Myself with the "anymore" live during the Taking chances Tour, i'm gonna try to send it so you can see the difference in her voice but also in her face. It was during her 1st concert in South Africa,14 feb 2008, try to find it if I can't send it. and watch early representations of "All by myself", you will see by yourself!

[CelineDionVideo]

I can't send it but look in my "Favoris" on my site, you will see it. Title: All By Myself - ONLY LIVE TAKING CHANCES TOUR PERFORMANCE

Tell me what you think, please!

[roberry82]

The crack in 1:16 is also in other performance where she used the vocal track. All the other cracks/strains are from her singing live with her sore throat. As for her facial expressions, well, she's using the same expressions she's been using during the lipped part of TPOL. She even started messin with her earpieces during some recent TPOL performances. LMAO. Mess all you want with it. We still know it's lipped. Same here. Make goofball "omg, can i make the note?!" faces?! Funny stuff.

[luigimanzanares]

It's not the same. Have your ears checked!

[roberry82]

Why do I need to have my ears checked? I'm the one who can hear it! LOL. Get yours checked and come back and listen. Then you can join the crowd of fans in the know. LOL. j/k

[luigimanzanares]

haha, i just cleaned mine, You're funny

[luigimanzanares]

have your brain checked then! youre the only one saying its the same

[frndlykiddo]

I hear it, too! Just be open to the idea of it, then you'll hear a much richer sound during the first part of the big "anymore". It kinda starts twice... she's for sure using a backing vocal on the big note. She's not dumb and doesn't want to disappoint people with the "big note" being too sour. No worries... she's smart like that. The entire song would suck if that one note was bad... no wonder she uses backing vocals. Can you blame her?!

[luigimanzanares]

Im not contesting about the backing vocals. I can hear the backing vocals loud and clear, what I can't accept is the claim that she lipsynchs to this. Lipsynch is when no sound is produced and you just synch your lip movements with the song. You could clearly hear her voice, though she used a pre-recorded track this is not lipsynch. And using backing vocals is not new, it's just like putting more echo or thru backup singers. My point is THIS IS NOT LIPSYNCH!!! :-)

[roberry82]

No, others hear it too. Maybe the computer you're using is crap, but I can hear it through my speakers clear as day. LOL. So can others.

[celinelover112]

In addition, every time she has sang this song live, when she hits the high note, she leans back... and sorry if I make mistakes, but my nature language is Spanish, lol

[luigimanzanares]

You could hear her voice break at 1:16. Singers are trained to sing through a colds or sore throat. For me, as far as this song is concerned, no doubt this is live. She has mastered this song, having sang this many many times, it's just natural that some parts would appear like you've heard it before or that it is pre-recorded.

[sukaitvar]

Yeah, unfortunately now only the "anymore" part, but all the other demanding songs on tour inc. the power of love, my heart will go on, it's all coming back to me now, I drove all night etc. with very subtle live parts where she starts the song. but that's showbusiness, don't think those people are troppers or anything, anybody can do it with this amount of pressure and dough. she's just a well-produced star, nothing more. it's all about money.

[anniinaao]

voi luoja! my love :) <3

[Raezuvlite]

wow! This wasn't too long before I got to see her in concert. Poor baby!

[jejdaiveta]

She's very strong woman!♥

xxx

[celinelover112]

Even though I am a big fan of Celine Dion, it's obvious that the 'anymoooooooore' part is lipped.. I've follow the videos from her tour since it has started.. and it is the same every time. I feel a bit disappointed

[celinedionlover4life]

the anymore part and the rest is definitely not lipped cause at 1:16 you can here a little crack in her voice and she doesnt crack in any other of the videos

[celinelover112]

I'm sorry to tell you, but the little crack you're talking about is the same every time she sings this song. So, I recomend you to watch her performance of this song in south africa on 14th of february.. that was the only totally live performance; the rest is live until the high note, and after it

[luigimanzanares]

Really? I've seen a lot, it's not the same. Did you see the effort she puts in? The last part was different, kinda flat and she added a high note. How would you explain the anymore part is lipped and the others are not?? She's very trained, she can sound the same everytime.

[celinelover112]

well it's difficult assume isn't it? lol. For me it was live too! But after watching several times every performance through the tour (I was an adiction lol). Now, talking about this performance, it's true that she makes en incredible effort to sing, but notice than it's so difficult for her to sing the 'all by myyyyyyseeelf', and then she hit the note soooo well. And the little crack is not always easy to hear because of the people shouting..

[kidared]

ohh yeah, she is a tooper!!!

[Keri2019]

Ohhh She is a trooper!!! You can see it in her face in the beginning that she is uncomfortable. Many times I have sung with no voice, its pretty painful.

[CelineFascinated]

i love her:*******************

[roroweb]

elle kan meme asssuré!!! en tous cas le montage des ingenieurs du son est vraiment bon sur ce titre. on entend pas le moment ou le playy back part lors du fameux anymore.

[CClealuidnetete]

Get your hearing tested! That is not play back!

Celine is a trooper!!!

[dieuxazrael]

Sans dessin, on voit que tu connais au show bizz ! On voit très bien que c'est live !

[TEREFUNKENMX]

OH MY GOD!...poor dear!...

and...after PHOENIX CONCERT...I have the privilege to see her in MEXICO...she do it great!...even when she stiil sick...

Ireally hope that she has not to do this kind of things...she could hurt her vocal chords permanently! its better that she cancel the shows...even when this were sad for the fans.... it will be on CELINE´S BEHALF....and health...dont you think?

[pumaloverkekevin]

wow!
