Advantages: lovely ballads

Disadvantages: not the most photogenic lady

One of my favourite female solo artists, Celine has gone from strength to strength and her voice is unique, determined and at times mesmerising. This is one of her finest albums and here is what to expect on it:

Who is she:

A French-Canadian singer born in 1968, she has shifted over 155 million albums to date.

On this album:

It starts with a belter, 'It's All Coming Back To Me Now' is epic in every sense of the word, coming in at over five minutes in length, it is the kind of track that would suit Meatloaf. (He did actually cover it). It starts slowly before building to a stunning crescendo with drum crashes, soaring vocals and slamming doors. You almost expect mirrors to shatter, that kind of thing! On a lighter note, 'Because You Loved Me' is a tender and warming ballad which shows Celine's soft vocals commanding the emotion. 'Falling Into You' might be the title of the album but it is not the strongest song. It is a drippy ballad which fails to stir much emotion and the melody is not that memorable.
'All By Myself' is a cover, allows Celine to reach scary new heights as she reaches for those high notes. It is a song to play when you have been jilted and are feeling all lost and empty. I also rate 'Call The Man' which is a cry for, well a man surprisingly enough.

Weak songs:

Towards the end of the album Celine seems to be relying on weaker material. I was not fussed by 'I Don't Know' and 'Fly' and they never seemed to register with me

Thoughts:

It is a perfect album for romantic evenings in or an album to play while trying to seduce a lady by the fireside. Celine's voice is beautiful and at times heartwrenching. Lovely!

Summary: super
