Return album from the Canadian superstar after her 2000-01 hiatus. Debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 with the highest opening of her career (558,000 copies). Lead single reached number 22 on the Hot 100 and an incredible 21 weeks at number 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
Second single "I'm Alive" did not reach the Hot 100 but it was a hit all over Europe, reaching the Top 10 in several countries.
Third single was not as successful, but it managed a Top 40 placing on the UK charts. It's the ballad "Goodbye's (The Saddest Word)".
Other key album tracks: the refreshing "Right In Front Of You", the soaring "I Surrender" and "When The Wrong One Loves You Right," which she sang with Destiny's Child on her CBS special:
Plus, the album included "Have You Ever Been In Love", which was included in her 2003 album "One Heart", was released as a single, and spent an astonishing 14 weeks at number 2 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

I used to have this CD - but I only remember ever listening to the title track, which I still enjoy to this day (both versions, but the radio edit is my favorite). I need to give the album another listen, I think.

A solid Céline album, though One Heart is my favorite post-hiatus album.
"Sorry For Love," "I Surrender," and her cover of "Nature Boy" are classic gems though! Sometimes I make a playlist taking the best of this album onto the end of One Heart and press shuffle.

Love this album. Goodbye's also briefly made the AC chart, as did the final single "At Last" reaching #15.
At Last for me is the weakest song on the album (as I personally just don't care for that song, regardless of who sings it) but the rest of the album is stellar. "I Surrender" is one of my all-time favorite Celine songs.

"Faith" and "Right In Front Of You" sound so great together. If only they had been singles...

This was easily my least favorite album by her at that point, but I like it more than anything that came after it. There are a handful of great songs, and "Have You Ever Been In Love" is one of my favorites by her.
