...I didn't even know Carole had anything to do with 'Natural Woman', I'd always associated it with Aretha but Carole is one of the song's writers. #TodayILearned

I'm almost willing to put money on me being the first to lose my #1 (hopefully not in the bottom 10 at least).

Imma take a break now.
Next song is a question mark of a first single. Not that it really mattered but if it happened today, Pulse would probably stick its head in a paper bag and take really deep breaths.

They're not my favorites by her, but "My Love" and "DYGEL" are lower than I expected.
I'm not crazy about "Natural Woman" anyway, and her version isn't the one I would refer to.

Oh, man! None of my bottom 5s are out well, at least I haven't lost a top 25 yet 50. God Bless America (35): The vocals are just TOO GOOD to have ranked this one too low. 49. When I Fall In Love (28): When I started working on this RD, I had this as a bottom 10 candidate based on my recollection of it. However, when I listened to it again, I really enjoyed her more subdued, tender, smooth vocals... especially after hearing some of her borderline shouty vocals in other songs. I didn't care much for this song back in the day, though, so I can understand the bottom 2 placement 48. My Love (29): This one I don't get, though, lol. This had solid, emotional vocals and much better melody than several earlier singles. It actually reminded me of classic 1970s rock ballads. Should've been much higher!! 47. Natural Woman (43): I remember hearing this in Casey's Countdown (it did reach the top 20 there, and silly me thought it was an official top 20 AC song...) but I didn't care much for this version. Celine used this slightly nasal, whiny tone, and I felt it was more shouty than it should. (I instead charted Rod Stewart's cover of So Far Away and Amy Grant's cover of It's Too Late ) 46. Did You Give Enough Love (39): It was interesting to discover this sexy side of Celine!! It was a bit hard to rank this one as it sounded pretty good but un-Celiney lol. I guess Ifelt it needed a bit more oomph in the last minute or so to elevate the song...

"When I Fall In Love" (duet with Clive Griffin)The intended duet partner for Celine was Stevie Wonder but Celine preferred Warren Wiebe. It won a Grammy (for David Foster) in 1994. [/span][/div][/quote] She was to duet with Wiebe again? How did Griffin get involved?

Teaming him with Celine was Foster's way of giving Griffin's international career a jump start, but people who wanted this song either got the single, or Celine's album instead.

I never got into that or Unison much at all, and it shows in my rankings. That's a shame. Unison and Celine Dion are full of filler, but The Colour of My Love is her first English-language masterpiece that's cohesive from start to finish. Give a listen to "Refuse To Dance"

TCOML is weaker than the self-titled in every way, but her main albums from '87 until the flimsy OH are all good if you don't count the dull new tracks on ATW.

TCOML is my favourite Celine album all the way through. LTAL is also a favourite except, despite its highs, it also has lows too, whereas Colour is consistent pretty much all the way through.

Celine invented clubs with Unison's "I Feel Too Much" so let this be the last time we tarnish that album pls

#45"Tell Him" (duet with Barbra Streisand) Let's Talk About Love (1997)Points: 393 Standard Deviation: 13.7 Median: 38 Average: 33.9 Range: 40 ChartsCanada: #12 | Hot 100: N/C | CHR/Pop: N/C When Celine followed up her biggest album to date, Falling Into You, the first single wasn't a made-for-radio smash that instantly shot to the top of the charts. It was a duet with traditional pop diva Barbra Streisand that radio didn't touch. In fact, outside of AC, where this went Top 5, radio rejected the single and the label pulled it. A similar move today might have different results. (Actually, I suspect a similar move today would have pushed Tell Him to the Top 10 for a week on the Hot 100 and quickly to the Top 15 of pop radio before plummeting, but I digress). Luckily for Celine, the next single from the album was also the theme from what would become the biggest movie of all time. But more on that later.

Well, judging by the outrage, I am just going to assume that "Taking Chances" will have more than 2 top 10s

Except for the 3 people losing a Top 10... you can sit if you like.
