Celine Dion - On Ne Change Pas on Quebec 400 Anniversary Show

[5a4jCqU2]

What she is saying that "America started here, on Quebec, 400 years ago (2008). This show will only happen once, but I want to remember it all my life. Tonight, I am with family, and I feel good about that." Céline, merci pour ta fierté d'être Québoise toute etant citoyenne du monde,

[ItsOnFranck]

@Globin ....totally agreed!!

[globin3]

something i don't get: canadian singers have a really thick accent when speaking french yet when they sing you can't hear it anymore. like seriously, it's weird.

[JeanLuc9635]

Chapeau pour l'orchestre...

[jennythediva09]

I know pretty much all of her french songs, yet the majority of the time, I have no idea what i'm saying! i really gotta learn French....

[villiet]

MAGNIFIQUE !

[yuzufable]

i love this song ...

[yuzufable]

écouter la voix d'une diva d'or au monde sur ce coup ....

Céline Dion fait vraie diva du monde ...

Je t'aime tellement beaucoup celine

[00FallingInBetween00]

I wonder what she's saying in the beginning.. Should start learning french :/

[houa69]

@00FallingInBetween00 She saids Que vous êtes beaux!Les Plaines, c'est vrai, c'est magique?J'suis tellement chanceuse d'être ici avec vous ce soir. Et spécialement de vous avoir dans ma vie.Je suis toujours très fière et heureuse quand je voyage, c'est sûr, quand on me parle d'ici, de chez moi, de Québec. Vous savez je dois vous dire, ce que la terre a d'immense et de géant c'est le coeur de ses peuplesn de ses gens.Laissez moi vous dire que ce soir votre coeur je l'entends battre très fort.

[Osayannx]

@houa69

In English: You are beautiful! The Plains.... it's true, it's magic. I am so very lucky to be here with you tonight. And especially, to have you in my life. I am always very proud and happy.... as I travel... it is certain when we speak, of my home, of Quebec. You know, I dare tell you that this land is immense and a giant. It's the heart of the people ...of its people. Let me tell you tonight that your hearts…. I hear it beating strongly.

Hope you don't mind my help.

[camillablimaa]

@Osayannx thank you. =DD

[Osayannx]

@camillablimaa: Your welcome, but I myself made a mistake. It should be just "heart" .......no "s" .

As she's speaking to the crowd on the Plains of Abraham in Quebec, she does mean "all

your hearts", but French does not translate easy.  :-)

[houa69]

@00FallingInBetween00 In english: That you are beautiful! Plains, it's true, it is magic? I am so fortunate to be here with you this evening. And specially to have you in my life. I am always very proud and happy when I travel, it is sure when we speak to me from here, from my home, of Quebec. You know I have to say to you, what the earth has of immense and of giant it is the heart of hers peoples her people. Let I say myself that this evening your heart I intend it to beat very hardly.

[00FallingInBetween00]

@houa69 Thank you :))

[cyncycy]

[mawuar]

was this concert free? i just can't believe how many people were there..!

[nightsaturn]

@mawuar yes it was, but there was some flaws in the ticket distribution, some that received them reselled them on ebay for like 500$, they had them free... kinda bullshit, but they did something to correct that...

[kelenor]

Sorry, but what year is this? All I know is that it happened pretty recently.

[LouiseQc555]

Translation(forgive me if it's not perfect, my first language is french).

"How beautiful you are!!!! The plains, it's true, it is magic! I am so lucky to be here with you tonight and specially to have you in my life!"

[LouiseQc555]

" I'm always very proud and happy when I travel of course, when one talks to me about here, of my home, of Quebec. You know I must say to you: What the earth has of immense and of giant is the heart of its peoples, of its people. And let me say to you that tonight, your heart, I hear it beat very loud. This is no surprise America saw the light of day here!! All began here, at the exact place we are, 400 years ago!"

[LouiseQc555]

"So tonight I want us to celebrates together, you and us, on the stage with all the artists that accepted the invitation to do a unique show. This show, we will do it just once, but me, I want to remember it all my life. ..because 400 years, that does not happen everyday. Tonight I am among family, at home! and let me add...I feel good!"

[101jep]

@LouiseQc555

thanks a lot, its a great help specially for those learning french like me

[foufou2222]

to sairamnagarajan:

-we never change

-we just wear costumes of others

-we never change

-a jacket hides only a small part of us

-we don't sleep deeply

-we just dream alittle and try to catch this dream

[freoltic]

je peux vous dire chers quebecois que céline vous aimes vraiment beaucoup, et plus que les français je pense, je suis un peu jaloux mais c'est normal. je suis français et en france on l'aime, on la considère un peu comme une française. vous avez bien de la chance. c'est la plus grande chanteuse de tous les temps

[sairamnagarajan]

Hey could someone please post the translation of what Celine is saying in the first few minutes? I realise it's not exactly the easiest task but I would be so grateful if someone could do it.. thanks!

[uareri27]

@sairamnagarajan well she's mainly saying she's happy to be in Quebec, her home. Hehe

Too lazy to translate everything.

[tymaxcool]

elle chante vraiment bien je ladore je suis ausii une quebecoise !!!

[BriDBXVI]

Quelle belle chanson! J'aime aussi la parole de Celine avant de chanter. C'est évident qu'elle adore son pays. Je suis un "French Canadian" de Nouvelle-Angleterre et j'attends avec impatience le jour quand je déménage à Montréal!

[UnFaiLLeD]

Bravo !!! Elle a conquis le monde. Et aura conquis le coeur des québécois pour toujours.

La plus grande femme de l'histoire de la chanson.

[Iannou35]

Yes french-canadian ( Quebec ) and France are different "Speaking" french.. the writing is pretty similar though.. almost the same.

[darcy141]

talk shit du debut de la chanson n'était pas nécéssaire

[quevi91]

j'adore celine dion, et quand elle parle français elle est si sympathique... j'aimerais parler comme elle.

J'AIME BEAUCOUP LE FRANÇAIS, c'est une langue précieuse. vous devez être orgueilleux de votre langue

[grece1000]

celine c plus qune icone je croie sincere tendre et douce et une voix extraordinaire c pour cela que lon laime

[salchat1]

c est une fille qui ne triche pas avec ses sentiments,et on aime ou pas son timbre de voix ,il reste que c est l une des plus grandes chanteuses de tous les temps

[lamike1982]

I have one question though.Does French have different dialects like English and Spanish.You know,we have American accent and English accent for English.People speak Spanish a little differently in Mexico than they do in Spain.

So I would like to know if the French-speaking people in Canada speak French differently from France.

[razzlerandy1984]

Most definately! The french most people typically learn in school is from France. Try going to Canada and hearing them speak, it's a little different! Not drastically so, but there are differences!

[MisterSaltarello]

Sure we have! Just in France we've got many different accents, and every French-speaking country has his own accents. Concerning Quebecois French, the French generally consider it to be ugly. It sounds "peasant" to their ears. Personally I do like it. I especially enjoy Quebecois expressions, which are very colourful and funny. The Quebecois also use some words we understand but we don't often use: for "a shoe", we say "chaussure", the Quebecois say "soulier", (it sounds oldfashioned to us).

[glopaddicted]

French canadian and French from France have different accent and different expressions but it's almost the same. And in France we have also different dialects and different accents (Parisians haven't the same accent than Southern French)

[lamike1982]

Oh,interesting.

So which dialect would be the most articulate?

[freoltic]

yes really different, like in france there are a north and south accent, south accent is really funny. but there are quebecois, belguim and swiss accent, it's very funny.

[lamike1982]

Cool.

So which accent/dialect would be considered the most articulate or accurate?Like English in England would be considered the most accurate.

[alexkotori]

well quebec french is closely derived classical french.. (there are many accents in quebec as well, people in quebec city speak a lot closer to what is spoken in france.. and the more south you go the more it sounds like a variation of acadian french) But we all learn the same french in schools. Someone from france/quebec could write a paragraph and you could not tell the difference. Its just the accents and expressions. Just learn international french.. Its what we all switch to when traveling!

[lamike1982]

Thanks for the advice!I've learned a lot.

Oh,and I also heard that French is a lot deeper than English (like poetry and literature-wise),is it true?

[greekboi79]

@lamike1982 i happen to be a french speaker as well as greek, and every language has its own nuances, but not one language is "deeper" than a next.

[lor3niux]

she dances incredibly bad

but god i love her.. shes such a cuttie

the world will be different without her.. she surely makes a difference ^^

[flashpenguin86]

Dance great or sing great but you can't do both. That is probably why you will never hear a Prima Ballerina break out into song. :)

[celinegodnessdion]

elle ma apprit l'anglais en un ete

et un peu d'espagnol aussi..

c'est vrai que quand on aime quelqu chose c'est plus facile d'apprendre des chose avec ......elle m'apprends beaucoup ....

Celine est incroyable (L)

[polojine]

Celine dion marque lhistoire...

les anglais haissent les francais mai grace a elle certain on voulu apprendre le francais

[fakefrenchboy]

C'est quoi ce "Les anglais haïssent les français"??? Tu racontes n'importe quoi... tu as demandé à tous les anglais? Tu ne m'as pas demandé à moi!

[shinyy911]

Je trouve que Celine Dion est une des filles les plus importantes de notres places, parce que c'est elle qui a en quelque sorte montrer au reste de la planete que meme si l'on vient d'une petite place on peut devenir un grande personne !! =)

[Eillecestmoi]

Ce que j'aime le plus de Céline, c'est qu'elle n'a jamais oublié d'où elle vient, Le québec. =D

[WildMrCoyote]

oui oui pour ca qu'elle reste en Floride

[Eillecestmoi]

Oh mon dieux! ...

TG. Je pense que ya juste toi qui pense comme ça, remarque que je ne connais pas vraiment Céline mais je suis vraiment fière qu'elle soit québécoise et qu'elle se soit rendu aussi loin, crisse de jaloux.

[Xeteks]

Bon anniversaire à cette belle nation du Québec :)

Quelle chanteuse..

Julien de Paris

[lisceline]

On vous aime pour toujours!

[Bluebeyond08]

I dont know French, but for me i can always listen to Celine singing in French its so captivating. Shes absolutely phenomenal, LOVE you always Celine

[westmath]

BONNE FETE QUÉBEC !!! ... VIve la Nation Québecoise . et ...vive la liberté...

[lorienelfmaiden]

J'ai oublié beaucoup de mon francais, mais je me souviens de toutes les chansons de Céline. Merci Celine!

[coolquebec]

Notre Céline nationale! Personne ne peut ignorer son talent, même ceux qui n'aiment pas son style musical.

Elle devrait refaire quelques chansons en français. À mon avis, ce sont les meilleures! :-)

[britewanshow]

comme jadore!!!!

[elrynx2]

Celine has become like a language. Her songs are universally known and must be engrained in the lexicon in Quebec?

[luigimanzanares]

even in the Philippines, people are learning French because of her.

[Celinefan4life05]

All over the U.S. too! even me!

[ascopes1]

Bravo Celine!

[ChristopherH93]

je ne suis pas francais donc mon francais n'est pas tres bon : S mais je pense que Celine Dion est un chanteuse fantastique!!

[Celinuskajestsuper]

elle est

[weisengelbaum]

je n'entends pas son français... mais elle a une merveilleuse voix

[Sylvie0688]

céline, t'es géniale!!!

[posey400]

Love this song!

[pablo12041991]

this lady was born to sing.. ;]

[coolquebec]

yeah, and she was born in Québec. ;-)

We can also be proud of that. We have a lot been considered as "hewers of wood and drawers of water" ("scieurs de bois et porteurs deau"), but I think that we now showed everybody who exactly we are :-)

[rararabibibi]

hahaha je suis specialement chanceuse de vous avoir dans ma vie haha noob

[tomasomoro]

ti amo...e che ci posso fare??!

[triniboymike]

LOVEEEEEEEEE u Celine

[lolipopcanada]

céline,toi qui fait une preuve de succès de notre peuple ''le Québec'',tu est une mère,épouse,et une artiste,formidable,change pas!!! ;)

[lenticule]

J'aime cette chanson!!!!!!!!vraiment belle

[melihjohn80]

I love you Celine...she is awesome...

[BluOceanBubblez]

Love this song sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooo much xx And Celine too

..lol..

[cleogirl87]

Elle semble épuisée, ce n'est pas étonnant elle a manqué un pas. Elle en avait une telle bonne grâce, qui se soucie. Sa voix est si belle nous finissions toujours l'entendre chanter. Il ne m'a pas tracassé le moins du monde.

[lapende16]

Céline, toi, tu es une très belle femme et une très géntile femme , mère et épouse. Tu aimes vraiment ton Québec sans doute!!!!!! Tous les vidèos où tu es là-bas. J'aime bien voir tes vidèos. Je te souhaite une très Bonne annèe. Mes sincères salutations!!!!! Ne change jamais, je t'adore Bcp. La bise!!! Martín, dès Argentine!!!!!!

[lilmizzcv]

french id so incredibly romantic. p.s, i didn't even notice that she forgot the lyrics.

[phillyprodigy09]

omg i agree and i dont understand any of it

[WladyGOT]

I dont understand!!!! her words!! but she explain so much fells!!! I LOVER THIS SONG

[narfee]

c'est ma préférée de Céline ! Aaaahhh !

[westforesty2k]

Instead of singing "en oubliant le froid" she sang by mistake "et se mocker de moi" the first time and had to repeat "et se mocker de moi" one more time! I love her but I can't believe she forgot the lyrics :(

[synestheticboi]

she always forgets the lyrics, that's whats so great, she's human!

[westforesty2k]

I'm a huge fan of hers (in fact going to see her next week in concert) but this is quite unexpected, she should not forget the lyrics!It's not about being human or making a one time mistake, It's a huge deal for a superb singer at this scale! Does Bon Jovi forget his lyrics on stage?Does George Michael forget his lyrics on stage? Does Garou forget?

[synestheticboi]

she actually did not forget the lyrics here.... it is actually "et se moquer de moi" in the last verse. but, many artits miss a word or phrase here and there, it's perfectly normal, have you ever had to memorise something or performed on stage? what you see as a perfect show is infact just the performer's expertise in sailing very smoothly through small errors.

[luigimanzanares]

"what you see as a perfect show is infact just the performer's expertise in sailing very smoothly through small errors. " - I liked that!

[Aneczka5]

Loooooove her

[godessceline]

I love her so much...there is no one like her and there never will be. I have goosebumps all over watching this. I love her so, so much. Céline...merci pour la joix, la tranquillité, et toutes les instants et secondes d'amour avec toi. Merci infiniment. Je t'aime.

[itsMaggieee]

i fell in love with this songgg!

french is so romatntic, i cant wait till i can speak fluently!!!!!!

[rogersbd89]

J'aime bien cette chanson..!!

[peticsek28]

That song is absolutely AWESOME, I love it, adore it and can't live without it.

[andrewd104]

I used to like it, then I became addicted to it... there is an emotion in it that I had not perceived b4. I think you understand.

[andrewd104]

Well I guess it nostalgia, and pride maybe. Of her roots... her "people". As in she may now live in a Jetplane, but she remembered it all @ that moment. It was perhaps the most "real" performance I have ever witnessed. Dude that night in Québec was "une merveille"

[triniboymike]

love u celine

[ladivamtl]

Celine a parler des peuples....

elle est chez elle au Quebec....et comme elle a dit" je suis chez nous...et je suis bien"

[overrrrr]

trop belle trop puissante c vraiment une deesse cette femme!!!
