It's so raw. No effects at all. This is how you handle a tech difficulties not by doing unnecessary movements and talking to the crowd. Professionalism.
Usually, the ear piece lets the singer hear themselves singing over all of the musical accompaniment. Being able to hear yourself makes it easier to maintain a clear tone and pitch. When a singer has to take out their ear piece, it's often due to technical problems. If this happens and the singer is still able to stay on pitch and sound good, then you know that they truly are a skilled performer.
The technical problem helped Celine to prove herself that she's very professional and amazing singer 😏😏 i love this performance, full of emotion and very natural
Just to add context to this performance and highlight Celine’s greatness: if you noticed, she removed her in ear monitor (most probably because it’s not working as she said “Still nothing” at 1:49). Hence, she’s not hearing her own voice and the piano clearly during the entire performance and has to rely more on muscle memory of her larynx and neck to sing the notes right.
Absolute proof that she is a pure professional... She recovered that situation tremendously. I love how she looks up to the heavens when she sings " ...but dear Lord she's dying... " Also, credits to Richard for the brilliant fade out and restart. Amazing
I was at the Oscars in '98, about 20 feet away from her when she sang My Heart Will Go On and I can attest to the fact that she is one of the most extraordinary voices ever.
Actually, thank god for the technical problems coz they made her performance more natural and emotional.That hit me right in the heart. Celine talented Dion!!
It's been almost 20 years.... You left way to soon daddy, still miss you everyday wishing you could have seen me grow up and graduate and get married and saw your grandson... But one day you will see us all.... I love you
Some songs she uses Autotrack sometimes just only if her voice is not feeling well. CELINE is always live no matter what and always gives the best she can give.
One of her most real performances, it may not have been vocally perfect but the emotion, like she had written this song, she has a way of taking songs not written for her or by her and making them even better ( words from My own father who isn’t even a fan of hers)
Not often enough to see pure, outstanding performances like this especially with such meaning and heart. And with music royalty, Richard Marx, Luther Vandross, and Celine Dion. This was such a natural version without all the technical hoopla.
Not a single day will go by that I wont carry u in my heart and soul!! If u only u knew how much your missed n needed, u never would have left😥Jesus needed u more and I will keep your spirit alive..Watch over us all who are missing u immensely!!! Every sunset I see, I will see ur face smiling ,waving to me, like I always remembered from u! With my broken heart, I will Love u enternally forever n wait for that sweet day too see your beautiful face!!
I never saw video of Luther after his stroke! This made me cry. As for Celine and Richard, this was a demonstration of how talented they are. After such huge technical problems at the beginning, they still gave a spine chilling performance. Amazing.
Anyone who knows about singing live would agree with me that what Celine did here was amazing! She sang completely "dry" and still sounded amazing. Notice how she took out the "plugs" from her ears. That means she couldn't hear hear herself because they allow her to hear what comes out of the speakers. No feedback. I have so much respect for her especially after watching this performance> awesome... I'm touched.
Luther Vandross.The King of R&B! this song speaks to me every time I hear it. I lost my Father when I was only 14, My Mom and Dad never Divorced, but they were separated. I knew that they still loved each other because of how they would look and act around each other. RIP Daddy to Luther Vandross THANKS for releasing this song.
Those technical errors at the start really highlighted that not only was Celine Dion not miming, but also what a consummate pro both her and Richard Marx are.
For those who have worked on live TV show this would have been a nightmare. You can hear the mic bumps in the intro, then all the rest of the tech talkback, mic crashes, feed back and this was the Grammys, a lesson to us all that even on the biggest music show of the year it can go wrong for this is live TV. Congratulations Celine for being so professional what a beautiful song. Recently with a cast of thousands at the Special Olympics Opening NBN3 and GEM Channel Australia we were blessed over the three hours with not one of the above. Thank you Lord.
Celine Dion is an inspiration to EVERYONE. Myself included. And this song really gets to me, I lost my father when I was ten, this song is so beautiful.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! 2014 this is my story... When I was younger I feel so tenable about myself with affection of my family. Maybe it’s because I was showered with such attention since I’m the youngest among the siblings. I really don’t mind when my friends and classmates at school asking me where my dad is. I just simply replied, “he’s in heaven, he died when I was a year and a half.” Persistently that’s always been my response. Oftentimes when I see their dads, I really don’t mind at all. I feel so fine with it, no anxieties nor jealousy that they have their dads with them. Who showed such love, care, affection and support. But lately things changed… I thought I was completely fine about it. I apprehended that there would always been a time that you’ll feel such desolation about yourself. A part of me that is missing, just like a puzzle. Questions hurling inside, “WHAT IF?”. Plenty of "What if's". How infuriating on my part that those questions will never be retorted nor I can’t find absolute answers about it. We can’t take back what is already gone. Right from there, you have no choice but to live with it. If daddy was alive surely it would change a thing… Or maybe I wouldn’t be a person that I am today. Maybe I was more mature, confident and secured about myself. There were periods that I wish he was with me. I just desired a father so badly! However it can never be altered. But that’s life. It’s a providence I opted to accept. I will never be complete however life doesn’t stop there. It basically goes on. I must say that you have no idea how blessed you are because your parents are with you. Learn to appreciate and value the significance of their existence. Since the sad reality about it is that we lack of indebtedness on the things they’ve thru. Let’s put in our hearts and soul that we can’t repay the sacrifices they’ve been done for us. When one of them is omitted, it is as if a half of your life is lost. May you have a meaningful Father’s Day!
Oh man I can't tell how much I love this song. Heard it countless of times on the radio in summer of 2003 and the person on the radio(sorry bad English) was always telling about Luther's critical situation and praying for him. I'm so sorry that he didn't get a chance to perform it live. One of those songs that gets all the range of motion going on inside me everytime I hear it. God bless the memory of Luther Vandross ❤❤❤
Celine doesn't need to lipsync, a true performer. This song reminds me of my father who sadly passed away 16 yrs ago, and fond memories of him dancing around the floor with my mum, my younger sister, and myself. xxx
Two years ago but I still miss him a lot. The pain does not go away but it does get a little easier as time passes. I love you Daddy ♥ Thank you Celine.
Firstly. Fire the technical crew. Secondly. True talent shines through. Beautiful song performed beautifully. I love love love love Luther's version but this is still a moment of magnificence. x
Aaron Abiodun me too. Jan 2014. It gets me every time in the song is I wish my mother could just be with my father one more time. 60 yrs and 6 yrs dating. Nothing's the same anymore.
I too just lost my Father, 4 months ago....my Mother cries for my Father everyday!!! How close to home this song has become. ..Thank you Celine for showing the World that we all suffer loss and pain. Luv, CharylLynn
This performance just shows the high quality performer she is ! Even with this problem at the beginning and without return, she does it beautifully... So emotional! She's simply the best....
When you’re a singer, you SING, period. As a die-hard Celine Dion fan, watching this live made me feel proud of the artist I support, because vocally, she has sooooo many amazing moments.
amazing!! true professional! I'd be so pisssed!! beautiful song, I know she'd want it to be perfectly sang, so it's moving to people in the audience. she still nailed it!
Goodonya Celine, - your voice and your ability to put heart into your songs reminds the world of the nicer parts of humans, when the passions of our loving emotions are shared ! Thankyou - I'm glad to share the same world with you. - Kevin, Gippsland Aust.
I remember ppl complaining that she added nothing to it, she sang without emotion, she this that. Here, I see her adding her own runs, she was overflowing with emotion . Some people are just narrow minded .
It won't ever heal, but you will learn a lot from your situation, be stronger, smarter, wiser and have more depth as a person! God bless and take care. Your dad will always love you. :) x
what i love about celine dion so much is that she doesnt do lip sing, she sings every words clearly, not only focusing on how high she can sing n starts screaming arround. she really feels every lyrics, never failed to move me
Hi All...Can anyone tell? Did they fire anyone of the technical crew?...This was truly a test of professionalism and Celine nailed it...Bravo Bravo...Well done Celine...
My Dad used to teach ballroom dance... he was tall, and combination of Elvis and John wayne, Fred Astair, and Perry Mason... I grew up dancing wiht him. He's been gone 3 years now, and I can finally listen to this song all the way thru. Thank you for the post. Its a beautiful version of a beautiful song. msvicki
i just lost my dead recently and the moment the song began can't help but to cry, never really had the chance to be with our father that long... miss him so much.. love you tatay..
It's been 14 yrs... since i lost my dad! It seem's like yesterday! I grieve everyday! It never get's easier and i happened to run across this...Tears r flowing..Celine is simply amazing!!
This song makes me cry because I never had a father like that. Lucky you who did. Feel blessed that you had a caring father and don't be too sad he left you.
I love this song too much, because of my love to my father... No matter what we've incounter in our life, stil he is the BEST for me... I love u so much tatay..
This song means to much for me. I lost my father nearly three years ago. Actually, in 3 days, its 3 years ago. I still can't believe i've lost him. He was the best dad ever. No one is perfect, he wasn't either, but he was the perfect father. I remember how he swang me around in the living room, or i was standing on his feet and we were dancing around. I've always been daddys girl, and i always will. I love you and i miss you, daddy.

In a room full of musicians, they all know how amazing that performance was.
exactly. Not able to hear yourself, you will only rely on your laryngeal muscle memory to get the notes right. WOW!
@@ivannano exactly if you notice Martina mcbride was wowing Celine cuz she still sang through technical problems
No echo no auto tune just her real voice...so beautiful... thats the talent
The technical problem helped Celine to prove herself that she's very professional and amazing singer 😏😏 i love this performance, full of emotion and very natural

I wish I had danced with my Father just once in my life. This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.. She's sings it beautifully...
I take this back, I did dance with my Father, "Once"...
I love this song a lot
Absolute proof that she is a pure professional... She recovered that situation tremendously.
I love how she looks up to the heavens when she sings " ...but dear Lord she's dying... "
Also, credits to Richard for the brilliant fade out and restart.
Amazing
I was at the Oscars in '98, about 20 feet away from her when she sang My Heart Will Go On and I can attest to the fact that she is one of the most extraordinary voices ever.
Céline sang this so beautifully.
Brian Hamilton I love her, best singer in my book...
Martina's reaction at the end says it all! And when Celine applied her signature run at the end, it's simply heaven.
Actually, thank god for the technical problems coz they made her performance more natural and emotional.That hit me right in the heart. Celine talented Dion!!
I love this song it best song it Joan
She is totally amazing ... whatever she sings!!!
It's been almost 20 years.... You left way to soon daddy, still miss you everyday wishing you could have seen me grow up and graduate and get married and saw your grandson... But one day you will see us all.... I love you

Eileen Rosado I am sorry for your loss, all I can tell you is that time does heal, always honor his memory and he will stay in your heart forever. 💚
Missy Clagg l
Missy Clagg take heart swrrry
Some people accuse Celine do lip sync cause by her perfection on stage...But we have seen and proof her beautiful 100% live stage performance.
Some songs she uses Autotrack sometimes just only if her voice is not feeling well. CELINE is always live no matter what and always gives the best she can give.
she's is absolute garbage !
Don't get jealous... all that hate will make you ugly.

Celine is such a professional one. I am so touched how she acts a professional one and how she sings the song. Her performance is very touching!

I have the same vocal range. would love for you to listen and comment below
This is a pro when things go wrong
Definitely, and very gracious too
For those who have worked on live TV show this would have been a nightmare. You can hear the mic bumps in the intro, then all the rest of the tech talkback, mic crashes, feed back and this was the Grammys, a lesson to us all that even on the biggest music show of the year it can go wrong for this is live TV. Congratulations Celine for being so professional what a beautiful song. Recently with a cast of thousands at the Special Olympics Opening NBN3 and GEM Channel Australia we were blessed over the three hours with not one of the above. Thank you Lord.

Simply amazing with all those technical issues and she still pulled of a heart touching performance she truly is a blessing to this world.
Perfect as always. Less the sound crew. She gives up and takes out the ear monitor. What a pro she is.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! 2014

I just lost my dad almost two days ago,I can't stop playing this song. I'm only 21, I still need him here.. :(
Oh man I can't tell how much I love this song. Heard it countless of times on the radio in summer of 2003 and the person on the radio(sorry bad English) was always telling about Luther's critical situation and praying for him. I'm so sorry that he didn't get a chance to perform it live.
One of those songs that gets all the range of motion going on inside me everytime I hear it.
God bless the memory of Luther Vandross ❤❤❤
I just pissed my pants! Luther at the end, so touching !!!!!!!! SHE SANG THAT SONG!
Celine doesn't need to lipsync, a true performer. This song reminds me of my father who sadly passed away 16 yrs ago, and fond memories of him dancing around the floor with my mum, my younger sister, and myself. xxx
Well done! Beautiful voice even after all else went wrong!
Two years ago but I still miss him a lot. The pain does not go away but it does get a little easier as time passes. I love you Daddy ♥

I remember ppl complaining that she added nothing to it, she sang without emotion, she this that. Here, I see her adding her own runs, she was overflowing with emotion . Some people are just narrow minded .
+Rosannasfriend People hate Celine for whatever reason. They always say she's emotionless because they can't find anything else to say.

Fathers are so important for the raising of a child. Believe me it isn't easy without them.
4:37 I love how they went to Martina McBride, who's been called "the Celine Dion of Country Music" time and time again. lol

This song means to much for me. I lost my father nearly three years ago. Actually, in 3 days, its 3 years ago. I still can't believe i've lost him. He was the best dad ever. No one is perfect, he wasn't either, but he was the perfect father. I remember how he swang me around in the living room, or i was standing on his feet and we were dancing around. I've always been daddys girl, and i always will. I love you and i miss you, daddy.
