The first single from Celine's upcoming album of the same name is out September 3rd.

Just days away! I bet it'll be her best (english) song in over a decade!

I heard the preview. It's sounds like it will be absolutely amazing. It's classic Celine, but also has a modern flare.

For those who haven't heard it, she graces your ears with a little bit of heaven.

Haven't heard it, but I'm stoked. I'm a sucker for a good Celine track.

I love the demo, I love the live version, and I know I'm going to love the recorded version.

This is sooo good!!! This song has all those trademark Sia aspects which I love. Even though it's Celine singing, there are subtle nuances that let you know Sia had a part in the composition and the demo.
This was so worth the wait!

Love it. I do think the preview will hurt the song - the 30 sec of the ah, ah, ay, should be trimmed for preview. Once you hear the song, wow, but I wonder how many people will get turned off by that long intro. Just saying. It's OK in the whole context of the song.

Not bad. Her best bet for decent play is AC, but I don't know if this can repeat past glories (even though she is one of the top 20 acts at AC radio since the 60s).

No. 119 on iTunes.
Is the label even going to bother promoting it to top 40 radio?

They really should. There's enough buzz to warrant at least something.

Love this. It's her most current sounding single in a long time.

Top 40 is tricky, though- aside from the fact that she's in her 40s, she also hasn't had a top 20 hit there since 2000 (nor a top 40 entry since 2003). So, the format and its audience probably isn't clamoring for new Celine.
It is too bad that, no matter how fitting or decent a track may be, those pesky other factors do come into play.

After listening to this on repeat all morning, I don't like it as much as I'd hoped I would. It's repetitive and as good as she sounds on it, she could've done more with it vocally. I hope she gets some attention for it, though.

She hasn't released a good lead single since "A New Day Has Come" in my opinion. This doesn't change anything for me.

Jury out on LMBTL - the intro is still bugging me. Skip it every time. Nice to see it up to 58 on iTunes. Doesn't even have a banner. |

Didn't Prince's single have a slightly stronger first day, with the airplay promo?
Did Paul McCartney's new single also have an airplay promo? His track's at No. 25 on AC.
