@ForeverComplaining 90% of the Vegas show is live. I know the lipped songs, and the live ones sounded 100% better than the lipped ones! She has gotten better over the years
You know, I think she sounds great but I think she sounds great singing anything. The song kind of bores me though. She could sing happy birthday and make it sound amazing though.
Just listened to both versions and Celine version is way better than meatloaf"s..its has more vocal power, great runs and the emotions just came right through the song..she totally owne it ..
meatloaf's fans can't accept the fact that celine sang "is nothing sacred anymore" "and it's all coming back to me now" before meatloaf. celine's was a demo for Let's Talk About Love 1998, meatloaf released this song at 1999 so she recorded it first, stop trolling around and get your facts straight, it's jim steinman choice afterall
Celine could still totally sing this in 2011....but Mariah and Whitney's voices are far too destroyed or strained....or simply aged too quickly naturally to sing this now.
Good, bad, personal taste, who's version is better..... no of that matters. She's amazing and has an incredible voice. There are few singers that can do what she does. That in and of itself is enough. I'd like to hear "you" sing it better.
Just listened to Meatloaf & Patty Russo's duet of this song but my vote goes to Ms. Celine. The duet sounds good but I didn't like the end part when Meatloaf was singing with the choir...his voice just blended in with the choir you couldn't hear him at all & he sounded like he had a hard time reaching the note. However, this version is so much POWERFUL & how Celine controls the notes is pretty mind-blowing!!!
I don't understand why people always compare artists. Of course, Celine's version will have a different sound coz her voice is different & her style of singing is different. So all these comparing is just RIDICULOUS!!! Just be glad that we are privileged to listen to an AMAZING voice like Celine's. If they all sound the same, it would be pretty boring, wouldn't it?
@btdtlol7 I agree, Celine is a great singer and powerful singer. I do think meatloaf is better in this particular song. They are both great singers, no need to compare them.
@classact591 - It sounds like you're only contradicting yourself. You say no need for comparison but then you'd say that Meatloaf is better....but hey it's cool! They're both amazing artists...with different styles but both very talented!
she is AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL AS ALWAYS .....THIS SONG IS GREAT!!!! SHE UNDERSTANDS LOVE UPS AND DOWNS THATS WHY HER FAN ADORE AND RELATE TO HER MUSIC LOVE HER!!!!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is nice enough, but it doesn't have the raw power of Meat Loaf and Patti Russo's version. In this one Dion sounds like she keeps trying to rock out, but neither her voice nor the music are suited to it. Personal taste, I guess.
She lacks the raw power? Did you even play the entire song? The second half of the song blows everyone away. Celine is a Rock icon esp in the French world .
This song is only a demo and not a proper commercial recording.
@TheCelineDionChannel I heard the whole song. As I stated, it's not bad; and it may have blown you away, but not me. And it means absolutely nothing to me that she is an icon. I know how famous she is. Lady Gaga is famous, too, but I still think she's a freak. Not that Dion is, but my point is that someone's fame is never in itself a reason to like them. Finally, you and I must differ in our definitions of "rock" music.
@doctor Im just confused after reading your comment..I still dont get how meatloafs version came across as more powerful but to each his own i guess.. Before headbangers came out spitting blood and sticking out their tongue with raging electric guitars ...rock icons were pretty simple people. If Roxette ,Joan Jett even Heart could be considered Rockers ...Why not Celine? They all sang ballads .
@doctorx777 you dont know nothing if you think she is less than the best female singer in the world, she only comes after whitney houston... and maybe in this song she didnt show her best... that doesnt matter... just see all other videos on you tube, her voice is unmatchable... if she is an icon, its because of her talaent... she is nothing like lady gaga... are you crazy to even compare that to her?
I have listened to both versions. I say both are different and I enjoyed listening to both versions. I must state that I disagree with your comment that "In this one Dion sounds like she keeps trying to rock out, but neither her voice nor the music are suited to it". Celine Dion approaches this song differently from Meatloaf. She is an artist and this is her interpretation of the song. It has nothing got to do with being "suited".
Meat Loaf voice is of a lower register than Celine's. His voice is also less powerful. But overall, his version has seemingly more impact as it is a full released version while this is only a demo. So with the impactful orchestra music in his version, of course his is better. But if you were to focus just on the singing voice, I think Celine is a much better singer.
@doctorx777 I agree! She sings the hell out of it, but something just doesn't sit right. Passion just doesn't come across. I prefer Karine Hannah to this version.
Celine Dion record this as demo in 1998, but she had some kind of a thing about wanting the writers to pay a fee to have her sing their songs, which was chickenshit of her, if you ask me. Jim Steinman didn't want to pay, so he turn-around and produced the song for Meat Loaf's Very Best Of.
J Steinman gave up the rights to other songs sung by Celine to avoid collecting additional royalties should the album over sell expectations. MJ and Elvis does the same , They all buy the rights to their songs. SONYbmg, didnt think the song was suitable for the LTAL album and it was cut from the final take.
@MrDamian12345 - I don't think that has anything to do with Celine being a "chickenshit." It's showbusiness!!! Every artists has done it to make money! Heck if I got a voice like Celine I would definitely do the same. Actors aren't no different. E.g.: if a designer wants a certain celebrity to wear or use their product then they gotta pay them first. There's really nothing wrong with it! It's part of showbiz!
The music from this version has been recycled from the unreleased Karine Hannah version...or vice versa, whatever. Regardless, Karine's version just got owned. I'm going to go rip the audio of f of this now and put it on my iPod =D
@hornylike124 Well...the pic is where she was performing in SO YOU THINK CAN DANCE SHOW, in 2007 and the song was TAKING CHANCES...yes i remember this perfomance =)

@TheBreebles Good point, sorry for sounding too critical as a Celine fan I don't mean to be, but all her pre-recording does annoy me.
However I'm sure she did sing some parts of her vegas shows live, so perhaps she still has something?

Actually Celine recorded it first as a demo but she decided not to use it on her album. And the song was left out in the final cut.
Then meatloaf took the song and added his voice to it.
So technically Celine did it first.
