Disco de Céline Dion: “Colour of My Love Live Concert Video”

I just watched this video and rewound it so I can go back and watch it again right after I write this review.

Okay, so I'm a Céline fan. A big one. Not just the ordinary Céline fan- but the one that has loved Céline's music all my life, one that has every English CD ever made of Céline's plus all of her French CDs plus some more, the one that has seen hundreds of and has a large collection of "simply 'Céline' stuff." So trust me on this review, okay?

Let me get a few things straight. Many people have said that Céline lip-synchs on this video. Okay, she did. But only on two of the songs as far as I can see, and for sure not all of them! And, she practically had to lip synch because of the complicated dances she did along with the song. Her dance moves and great stage presence make up for the synching. As for the rest, Céline put her heart and soul into singing these songs; she always has and always will. This concert was recorded at a time where Céline's talent was fresh to everyone and her dream of international stardom was just becoming reality. When she sings, she enjoys herself. It's easy to tell. Her eyes light up and she puts every ounce of her body and soul into each note. Her love for music, sweet personality and passion for performance makes this concert all the better. It's incredible. You'll want to watch it over and over again. This one can't be missed. But don't take my word for it... see for yourself.

If you are a fan of Celine Dion, you will easily realize most songs she sang here are exactly the same as original CD version. Disappointedly, that means they were lipsynced or dubbed. Moreover, this shows some edited scenes regardless of music. So seeing this video like a can is not very exiting. And I don't like the third-rate dancers.

My dad and I have many concert DVD's. This one is alright. The concert is obviously all on a track (except for one song.) I didnt like the way that most of the songs faded rather than ended like a REAL concert should have. Unless you'd like to see Celine live and not hear her live this DVD isn't for you..

Yes, I'm a fan! So I find it hard to see short-comings in anything she does. However, the video is not the best quality...but it IS Celine! And she sounds great as always! This was my first DVD purchase and I was NOT disappointed! If you like Celine, you WILL like this DVD!

This "Concert" was MEANT TO BE a low-budget lip-synching videolized images of Celine Dion aimed at the English-speaking North American market in order to introduce this new personality to the public in moving images. It was filmed very early in the 90's, during the time when she began to put out a lot of English language songs, composed specifically to be launched as hits. She was not a mega-star at the time, hence the amateurish production value. When you buy something like this, you just have to be sophisticated enough to realize that this is not a real concert, and just enjoy it for what it is. Yes, the title is a little misleading (ALL advertisements are truth-bending in some way, period!), but it did not say "LIVE concert"...For all we care, it was probably "taped before a live audience." Three-stars for low production value, otherwise, Celine is great as she was.
