Watch the original video of Céline Dion performance here: t.ly/TgZ4C ❤ Do you want a video where I explain all the references during the opening ceremony? 😉
The musical introduction with the choir and instruments before celine began singing was so, so good. A true celebration of edith’s original song. I think celine did it justice!
Maxe you are beautiful, Celine is beautiful, Paris is beautiful.....best city on earth. The heavens cried and Celine was pure perfection. A moment for the ages!!!!
This was such a gift to me. I was born in Paris and moved to the US when I was young. My beautiful French mother, sang this to me as a child. She trained with the Paris Opera when she was young....This is the first time I have heard this song in years.. There are not words to contain my joy!
@@itsmaxevision I have been watching it every day...I think I may need to stop for just one day as I can't stop crying...I may live in the USA, but my heart, spirit and emotions are definitely French I thank you with all my heart for responding and understanding....Merci!
The best reaction to her song was a scene in a Paris cafe there people with tears in their eyes singing along, others locked arm in arm swaying to the music and a couple were dancing all enjoying the song in their own way.
As an american, so many of us have loved this song for a long long time. Thanks for showing us all how this song is so identified with french culture. ❤
J’aime bien te voir, un français, et ta réaction a notre déesse la Céline. Moi, j’suis américain d’origine méxicaine. Mais, j’adore la culture, sûrtout. La nusique française. Bravo, pour toujours!!
Beautiful reaction, and thank you for giving us the french perspective in english. As a long time Celine fan I've always wanted to go to France to her concerts, they always have this special kind of vibe and love for her.
Moi je suis Française et j'étais en larmes...Merci Céline pour cette magnifique soirée..Chanter Edith Piaf c pas évident mais pour Céline c'était vraiment du vécu cette chanson est pour elle...
I agree that she nailed that song. As with others, I am moved, every time I hear it performed. It’s even more special knowing what she has been through & the emotions in her face were priceless. Thanks for sharing with us & a BIG thanks to Celine for the best performance of her life.
On est tellement fier de notre Céline ici. Imagine, j'ai 56 ans comme Céline et j'habite à 3 km ou Céline a vu le jour à Charlemagne, Québec Céline n'est pas une diva ou une reine ici elle est simplement une partie de notre identité de qui nous sommes comme francophone nord américain.
Bien dit. Je suis d’accord. Nous sommes fiers d’elle et ses réalisations, surtout maintenant avec ce qu’elle a surmonté. *J’habite à Cornwall, ON., pas très loin de Charlemagne, à environ une heure et demie.
Loved the breakdown and explanation! I saw it live from my seat across the Seine (and could see her slightly through my binoculars) and didn’t fully appreciate the moment until this explanation!
Français, vous avez une culture magnifique et grandiose. Soyez-en fier et cessez de chercher votre identité au quatres vents. Assumez votre histoire et comprenez que la passion et la musicalité de la langue française est unique et un joyaux qui vous appartient. Ne la laissez jamais s'effacer dans le temps.
Lovely reaction. I didn't know the song. Didn't know she was going to perform. I was a blubbering mess when I watched and every time after, for the beauty of the song and the strength of Celine. Now all I'd want is to learn to sing it myself without breaking into tears again. :)
Cuándo la juventud de hoy sepa lo que es El Arte real 🎶la disciplina 🙏y música de verdad 😉🎶🎶entenderán esto 👏👏🎶🎶🎶😍💜‼️ je t’aime. Céline merci beaucoup Madame de la musique💜👏👏👏
I am Canadian and love Celine Dion. I only watched the opening ceremony to see her. Unfortunately had to wait until the end. I wish I had known I could have skipped the 3 and a half hours of boredom before.
It was a stunning performance, incredibly moving. It would be interesting to hear your reaction to Slimane and Lara Fabian's performance. of Je suis malade at the pre-Olympic performance. ruclips.net/video/wW5wC_WLFbg/видео.html
It’s nice that as a French person you hold such pride for Celine, but you seem to purposefully not mention that she is from Montréal, from Quebec, from Canada, ( the second largest French-speaking city in the world after Paris btw) nor the health challenges she has been battling on her own, just as Québec has stood its own ground as a distinct French-speaking society over the last 250 years under Anglophone dominance, no thanks to France. Celine’s blockbuster contribution to Francophonie is not a product of France; it’s a global phenomenon. This was a moment not just for France, but for all French-speaking people, in fact for anyone who has fought back from adversity, or ever has been or dreams of being in love. Your Olympic organizers certainly understood this when choosing her to perform. I hope you now do too.
Of course she is the Canadian québécoise queen 👑🇨🇦 this reaction is only from my French perspective, as I never travelled or experienced Canada and le Québec at the moment. And it’s even more related to Edith Piaf song for me that’s why this reaction is more into my French view over the performance. But I understand your comment don’t worry I will mention more her Quebec origins next time! 😁🫶🏻
Happy for all Les Francais. I wish I could say that we in the US could have a moment like this that could actually unite us, but I'm not holding my breath.
I hope it could happen for you in 2028! I think all the French in majority weren’t expecting something that could be successful and which unite us… but we were surprise in a good way! 😉
Je me demandais comment les françaises penseraient d'une grande finale avec Céline Dion à l'ouverture des jeux olympiques à Paris parce qu'elle n'est pas française. Pensez-vous que les françaises étaient contents ? J'étais fier d'elle.
TOUT LE MONDE EST FIER en France 🇫🇷 ❤️ je n’ai pas vu une seule personne se plaindre de sa performance ou de sa présence. Elle a toujours été respecté et adoré du public français. 😉
@@itsmaxevision Elle est Québécoise de cœur et Canadienne de passeport. Bon sang que les français ont de la difficulté avec ça. Le français est méprisé et se meurt dans le reste du Canada, c'est triste que ceci échappe à nos cousins.
@@roccococolombo2044 oulaaaa désolé si je vous offense mais je suis pas au courant de tous les problèmes linguistiques et géopolitiques dans le monde… on en a déjà bien assez chez nous 🙃 Donc évidemment qu’elle est québécoise mais aussi de nationalité Canadienne. Tous comme je peux fièrement être Breton et français à la fois. ✌🏻
Oh thank you! Well I’m not from Paris and I don’t think they have a strong accent. However when Céline sings I don’t recognise any accents it’s quite natural ! 😉
Hey Maxe, Here's the Swiss guy who has admired your dedication to Loreen, Nemo, and Eurovision over the years. Could you please explain to people worldwide that France and Europe are about artists like Brigitte Fontaine and Serge Gainsbourg-cultivated individuals who are knowledgeable about history, antiquity, and prehistory-not this reactionary mob that populates social networks? By the way the reaction was 🔥🔥🔥
First of all thanks for your support with Eurovision reactions ❤️🫶🏻 And I agree with you and I will speak for France more, we always have this kind of intellectual, more philosophical artist-singer with a lot of knowledges which takes more attention to the lyrics of their song; a bit snob or too Parisian sometimes in our music industry. They aren't the most popular today, but we always celebrate some of them! 😉
Anyone see Christine and the Queens rant online about how he’s “the best French musician” and is now leaving France because he thinks they should have chosen him and not Celine? 🤣🤣
Mon amis l'eurovision en Amérique absolument personne ne connait ce concours seulement au Québec ont connais justement à cause de Céline parce que encore aujourd'hui en Amérique du Nord personnes connais ce concours et ce n'est même pas télévisé en plus ici en Amérique
At the time in 1988, the rules of the Eurovision Song Contest stipulated that 2 elements on 3 of the song should be from the country. The songwriter and the composer were from Switzerland, and the singer Céline was able to represent them! 😉
Still in many cases nowadays the singer is not necessarily from the country they represent. In the same year, Lara Fabian, belgium singer, represented Luxembourg.
Thanks but it’s a reaction that’s how I’m doing it as I said in the video, check link of the original performance in the description to listen only Céline ❤
As an American, it was not helpful for me for you to talk through Celine’s performance. Much prefer you go back after a performance and explain whatever you were trying to explain.
She is and has always been on another level. Queen❤. Can I give you a tips?:) maybe not constantly talking while we want to listen and feel something . Hugs from Sweden 🌹🙌🏻
Thanks for your return I appreciate 😊 but it’s a reaction video as I explained in the beginning of the video, check my description to watch the original video to fully listen Céline Dion ❤

Completely she did justice to Edith Piaf, and the musical transition from the Olympic flame to her on the beautiful Eiffel Tower was fantastic ❤️
This was one of the best Olympic moments ever and one of the best music moments of all time. Iconic. The whole world crying at the same time.

Celine Dion may have sung "live" for the olympics, but that "live" performance was then recorded and then pitch corrected for the public.
