Dion
began to earn global renown, and with 1983's Les chemins de ma maison,
she became the first Canadian performer ever to score a gold record in
France. As the decade progressed, she became a phenomenon throughout
French-speaking Canada, scoring a series of platinum records; in 1987,
she signed with Sony Canada, making the leap to the label with the LP
Incognito, and a year later won the famed Eurovision Song Contest. Finally, in 1990, Dion issued Unison, her English-language debut (coming just a year after learning the language); the album produced a number of hits, among them "(If There Was) Any Other Way," "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" and "Have a Heart." However, her true commercial breakthrough was the title track to the 1991 Disney classic Beauty and the Beast, a duet with Peabo Bryson; the single topped the U.S. pop charts, and also scored an Academy Award. 1992's Celine Dion was a mammoth success, notching four major hits -- "Love Can Move Mountains," "If You Asked Me To," "Water From the Moon" and "Did You Give Enough Love." The follow-up, 1993's The Colour of My Love, was no less popular, launching smashes like "When I Fall In Love," "The Power of Love" and "Think Twice." In 1994, Dion issued a live album, A L'Olympia, and a year later returned to her French roots with D'eux; the legendary producer Phil Spector then agreed to come out of retirement to work with her, but he exited their sessions in anger over her perceived "commitment to mediocrity." Instead, Dion's next single, "Because You Loved Me" -- the theme to the 1996 film Up Close and Personal -- became her biggest hit yet, as well as the best-selling adult contemporary hit of all time; additionally, the accompanying album, Falling Into You, was another huge success. In 1997, she released Let's Talk About Love, and also scored big with "My Heart Will Go On," the love theme to the movie Titanic. Dion's fourth French language LP, S'il Suffisait d'aimer, followed a year later. ~ Jason Ankeny, All-Music Guide |
