Each person in the audience is crying for his own reasons. The pain of losing someone beloved is immense. The fact that though their pain, no one even sighed but suffered the tension of the lyrics, makes Celine a real human and a great artist. The seconds after the song's end are magical. Noone dares applause and ruin this painful silence. It's magical.
I remember the day she sang this on Oprah... March 12, 1997. I had literally just come home from the hospital were my love, best friend, and soul mate had died after a long battle with cancer, and turned the TV on in time to see this segment.
I saw it too. I'm from Montréal and we all know Céline since her beginning and we knew about her niece tragic story as well. Fly is a translation of Vole from her album (d'eux). As you know, it's almost impossible to translate exactly in another language a song. I saw her singing only once this song in french because it's in her language and it's more personal. D'eux is the best French selling album of all time (male or female) so she sang the song on concert but she was never been able to face the crowd at the end. At the end she says in French leave your skin of misery, go find the light. ruclips.net/video/iNb_zJs_274/видео.html
My son passed from this earth to Heaven on April 20,2007. On his 17th birthday . He was born with a congenital heart defect a heart so sick that surgery was not an option . He never spoke of pain or illness of any kind within his self . Never complained but I know he was in pain everyday he didnt have to say I knew it was devastating to watch my beautiful son fight for his life so hard for 17 years . To watch your child die and myself I administered CPR for more than 45 minutes I just dont understand why God did not give him my breath I begged God to give it to him I miss him so much I would give anything to touch my son again. . To this day in my heart beats the soul of my little boy . There is no greater pain in this life than to watch your child die and you cant do anything , nothing but go to the most gut wrenching pain you could ever imagine multiplied by millions every single day . It does not get any easier . God has my little boy and I still need him . This song is a beautiful tribute to all of our Angel's in Heaven. Till I see you again I'll miss you Daniel wait for me
My brother Daniel and my father Daniel senior left us suddenly and both flew to the other side 2 years ago. The pains is too much, too real, and watch my mom miss them everyday is almost unbearable...I'd hug you if I could cause I really understand you. Songs like this, so beautiful and touching, keep us in touch with their souls, praying one day we'll all be together again
I am so very sorry for your tragic loss!! Sometimes, it's so hard to understand why things happen that we can't understand. But, I can only imagine that our Lord saw your son's suffering and bravery, and then brought him home to Heaven, where he is brand new and happy and well forever and always!! Remember, someday you and your son will be together again, for ever, never to part again!!!! God bless you!!!!
+Amélie Castle La transposition en anglais est quand même bien. Un enfant est toujours un enfant dans toutes les langues du monde, et les larmes qui les pleurent aussi.
This is one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL songs I have ever heard. Both in English and in French, even though I do not speak French. I can not keep my eyes from leaking when I hear this song. I know that this song is for Karine but I dedicate it to all of my angels!
I only just discovered this song last week but i regret every day i went without it. This is the most beautiful song for a lost loved one. R.I.P Karine
still cant hear this song without crying my eyes out, so many mothers and fathers live with this pain.. my heart goes out to all of them.. thank you Celine for writing the most beautiful song in tribute to not only your niece, but to all Gods children who pass before their time.
This beautiful song has been composed and written by Jean-Jacques Goldman who signed for Celine her most beautiful songs in french, among the most beautiful french songs ...
I played this song at my moms funeral. Thank you so much for uploading this and thank you Celine for your sharing your beautiful voice with us. I have been following you for over 15 years. You are an Angel.
Fly, fly little wing Fly beyond imagining The softest cloud, the whitest dove Upon the wind of heaven's love Past the planets and the stars Leave this lonely world of ours Escape the sorrow and the pain And fly again Fly, fly precious one Your endless journey has begun Take your gentle happiness Far too beautiful for this Cross over to the other shore There is peace forevermore But hold this mem'ry bittersweet Until we meet Fly, fly do not fear Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear Your heart is pure, your soul is free Be on your way, don't wait for me Above the universe you'll climb On beyond the hands of time The moon will rise, the sun will set But I won't forget Fly, fly little wing Fly where only angels sing Fly away, the time is right Go now, find the light
I can see some comments below; I speak both English and French and I have to say, I don't find the French version any deeper or more emotional than the English one because the words are so resounding and terribly sad here too and it has got the same dose of poetry and pain and so we can really feel how devastated she and her sister's family was after the loss. I like both.
Thanks for saying that. I think lyrically, its the same in either language and its the melody and her singing that brings both versions home. I prefer the English because of the lyrics but the French version she's easily more emotive because its her language.
Nothing can touch the original version she recorded in French, the emotions she put in the French version brings me to tears every single time I listen to it…
I played this at my grandmas funeral, that same year my aunt died, now 20 years later my aunts daughter past away due to covid, we all grew up together, despite the age gap, I think I’m just expressing my feelings, but it’s so hard to lose someone you love
Theres something sad, sweet, bittersweet, hopeful, graceful and just all around emotional wrapped into this performance. She sang it with such emotive vocals, endearing lyrics and heartbreaking echos she hits in the end. A personal song I'm sure Celine takes to heart and how we all can relate to losing someone in life.
this song holds dear, although i didnt loose a child today, in which she was childlike my 96 year old grandma passed away a year ago. It took her 13 days to leave this lonely world of ours she said at times im not dying. Im not as sad now, because shes in heaven
I remember watching this with my mom, shortly after my aunt (whom was my 2nd mom) had passed away from Cancer. There wasn't a dry eye. One of the most beautiful songs and performance I've ever seen. Celine knows how to emote through song
Absolutely breaks my heart :( what a beautiful moving and deep song. Eyes are so teary now. Thoughts are with everyone whose lost someone truly special xxx
I saw this show and this song touched me so much, that years later I used it for my mother's memorial service (she was a tiny, little thing with such a love for life), and there wasn't a dry eye in the place. I also used her "Goodbye is the Saddest Word" which is another tear jerking, gorgeous song.
Lost my younger 18 year old brother 20 years ago this coming August (2022) to Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Have always loved this song. Seeing her singing it in dedication to and memory of her niece, who also suffered from C, just gave the song a whole extra layer of meaning.
For celin Dion and the family's your voice is so beautiful I know it's hard to lose someone's in your heart and your love always be there in their hearts
This song has touched me very deep since it first came out! It has such a beautiful and heartbreaking sense to it, and very calming! I've been a HUGE fan of Celines for a little over 30 years, and there'll never be anyone better!
ok…. gets me every time. Its unfortunate though that a lot of people won't have the chance to ear this song in french and understand it. The french language opens up the throat and the mouth differently so that the voice is much better. If you guys would like to ear it: vole vole ( vole means fly)…Im so happy its my maternal language and culture…its about soul and strength and depth.. Céline is representing that perfectly. Much love to all people writhing about a lost one here.. :)
Are you kidding me? Im from Belgium and i hate french! Its a horrible sounding language! All the songs in french sound so harsh and with forced vibrato and ZERO vocal pwoer, range or soul! French music has always been considered as country side music with small voices and a guitar and fast vibratos! I prefer this celine song in english!
@@leanture3685 I am so sorry that you feel that about the beautiful French language!! I am American and don't particularly care for some of the dialects of English here in the States, but I love the gorgeous French language, so poetic and musical!!!! I am studying French again, and I can't wait to be fluent!!!
I just lost my last uncle on my dad's side out of 6 children my aunt is the only one left. Now uncle Mike is with My Daddy and the rest of his brothers, Mother and Dad. I wish I could have seen him one more time. Anita S.
I cry every time I hear this song. It's beautiful but so bitter sweet. I can't imagine what it's like to lose a child or a niece or nephew but I am happy that Karine is getting her due honor.
You can tell she was so emotional. She held herself so well though. While this isn’t typically my kind of music, I love this song and I love Celine Dion. My youngest sister passed away two months ago; just a month shy of her 16th birthday. This song brings me comfort
You can tell Liette is a strong women. Here's her sister singing a heartbreaking song about her young daughter dying. Probably the most painful experience she's had in her life and she's trying her hardest to keep it together, stay poised, calm, and collected. I can't imagine the strength it requires to manage that. Céline was only 9 ish years old when Karine was born, and they spent a lot of their childhood growing up together and shared an unbelievable bond. I love my twin sister and niece more than anything in life, and I could never in a million years sing a devastatingly emotional song on live television. The song is beautiful and even more so in French. Partir c'est mourir un peu-mais mourir, c'est partir beaucoup.
My great-grandmother outlived two of her four children, one of whom was my maternal grandfather, she said “the *worst* thing in the world is outliving your children.”
This song and Candle in the wind are two of the most beautiful tribute songs ever written. It must've been heartbreaking when Karine died in Celine's arms. I hope one day that they will find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis, so that no one else will suffer. Karine looked so beautiful and wonderful RIP.
It is undeniable that the french version is a million times more beautiful but this particular segment is just... there are no words! I am like and idiot crying my eyes out 😭 celine... never have we had a singer like this before or since...
Julie Martin yeah I think the French version sounds way better, the musical notes were written with the French words first so it sounds better. I never cried until I saw this performance though.. it's the whole setting with the family.. very intimate & emotional. She's such a good person and it's obviously due to having a wonderful family of good people. God blessed them so well with Celine. Blessed the world with Celine actually. She truly singing there like an angel.

Im so sorry. I cannot imagine your pain and suffering. I hope you find some peace and happiness again. I am sure your son would wish the same.
My brother Daniel and my father Daniel senior left us suddenly and both flew to the other side 2 years ago.

“Be on your way, don’t wait for me”
God, that line destroys me every time.
Me, too.....
The french version is, i think, even more beautiful
+Amélie Castle La transposition en anglais est quand même bien.
Un enfant est toujours un enfant dans toutes les langues du monde, et les larmes qui les pleurent aussi.
Yes because the song was first written in French. The musicality of the lyrics change when translated.
No
@@Jongen. Sorry, but fluent in both languages .... I agree!
yes except the lyrics are different
when she hits those Woooosss tears everytime.
They start for me at “be on your way, don’t wait for me.” Then the woooh’s just make it 10 times worse.
She has the voice of an angle, makes me cry.
Touched by an Angle ;-)
When I saw her in concert, I was crying half of the time and so was the lady on my left.
one of the most emotional presentations I've ever seen in all of my life!!!!
Jenny Champagne: Perfect!!!
I know, right??
;P
For Mom pass on two years now miss her so much.
Thiago Moretim I agree.
This is one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL songs I have ever heard. Both in English and in French, even though I do not speak French. I can not keep my eyes from leaking when I hear this song. I know that this song is for Karine but I dedicate it to all of my angels!
It's such a heavy song song in English.... But in french, it's really a Heartbreaking song.... It holds so so Much feeling....
Those precious seconds just after she stops singing, before the applause starts, are so beautiful. I love this song and the story it has.
I only just discovered this song last week but i regret every day i went without it. This is the most beautiful song for a lost loved one. R.I.P Karine
The French version vile is just as moving.
This is the song we had at my sons funeral who was stillborn, this will forever and always be Ethan’s song 💚
Oh dear, I am so very sorry.....
I'm in bits, I knew it was about her niece but seeing her sister too, tearjerking!! :-(
still cant hear this song without crying my eyes out, so many mothers and fathers live with this pain.. my heart goes out to all of them.. thank you Celine for writing the most beautiful song in tribute to not only your niece, but to all Gods children who pass before their time.
I'm crying like a baby
This beautiful song has been composed and written by Jean-Jacques Goldman who signed for Celine her most beautiful songs in french, among the most beautiful french songs ...
i remember i watched this episode of Oprah i cried my eyes out
I remember this on Orpah sobbing but thanking God my own Nieces were healthy; Celine you've ben through so much! I love her!
This song is for my daughter Jessica. Fly my angel.
Sonia i am so sorry😭😭
My condolences to you 😢
My condolences my friend just lost her first child at 8 months to Leukemia. I’m just so heartbroken and I sent this song to her
Sorry for your loss... but one day, she'll be there when it'll be your time to go find the Light ...
Everytine I look at this I cry like a baby wow.
2019 it's still timeless 🌹
i don't even know how she sings this without crying
Kaz moonbeam I think she did cry towards the end
Composure is key
Same 😭
The original french version she sang a few yrs prior to this, is wayyy more emotional
@@MrsDeCastilloTube l agree...
Incredibly and extremely emotional fly, fly my little bird, fly where the angels sing. Hallelujah!
I played this song at my moms funeral. Thank you so much for uploading this and thank you Celine for your sharing your beautiful voice with us. I have been following you for over 15 years. You are an Angel.
Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forevermore
But hold this mem'ry bittersweet
Until we meet
Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forget
Fly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light
In 25 years, I have never been able to listen to this without crying.
For my beautiful Sage.. Mommy misses you!
as i watch this clip. my tears wont stop. RIP rene. im always with u #CelineDion.
One of the most powerfully spiritual voice EVER!!!!
Nobody can touch the voice of Celine she is the best of all time ❤
OMG love love love this wonderful voice
Played at my aunties funeral. It now how's such a significant place in my heart
I remember this! I watched it with my mom. I've never forgotten it. 😥

This song makes me cry and reminds me of my cousin that was so joyful she died when she was two it still hurts me until this day 😫😖😥RIP Yajaria Mendez
tears tears tears ... so much emotion in Celine Dion Voice .
I played this song every day for weeks after I lost my father back in -97. Helped me alot. Thank you Celine!

me too! It must've been so heartbreaking for Celine when Karine died in her arms. I could never imagine what that must feel like. So sad..
The French version just flows better because it was first written in French. The musicality of the lyrics change when translated

Que la chanson soit en anglais ou en français, l'émotion est la même... Bravo 😢👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
Nothing can touch the original version she recorded in French, the emotions she put in the French version brings me to tears every single time I listen to it…
This isn't my favorite song of all time, but it is definitely one of the most powerful. This song must play at my funeral when I die.
Played this for my grandfather's funeral 7 September 1997 💗🇦🇺💗 & listen to it every year x
ainda não consigo ouvir essa música se chorar... Saudades, pai e mãe, nunca os esquecerei
Almost ten years since u left me the tears I have cried but I find peace in knowing u are in hands of the Creator 🕊️♥️🕊️
Crying like a baby, Celine. My funeral song.xxxxxxxx.
I played this song at the funeral of my mom, who chose to leave this world. Listening to this song breaks my heart all over again.
What kind of scale it's that of singing 3:00 through 3:15 wow that was heavenly beautiful.😱🤯🥰
Yes sounds like heaven
I played this at my grandmas funeral, that same year my aunt died, now 20 years later my aunts daughter past away due to covid, we all grew up together, despite the age gap, I think I’m just expressing my feelings, but it’s so hard to lose someone you love
How the hell do you not cry when watching this!? RIP to all those little ones lost, the pain must be unbearable :(
Theres something sad, sweet, bittersweet, hopeful, graceful and just all around emotional wrapped into this performance. She sang it with such emotive vocals, endearing lyrics and heartbreaking echos she hits in the end. A personal song I'm sure Celine takes to heart and how we all can relate to losing someone in life.
Je suis français je connaissais pas la versions a anglaise elle est magnifique merci celine dion je pleure

Her sister, just like Celine- has got so kind and angelic face.
I remember watching this with my mom, shortly after my aunt (whom was my 2nd mom) had passed away from Cancer. There wasn't a dry eye. One of the most beautiful songs and performance I've ever seen. Celine knows how to emote through song
My God. Unbelievable..... her voice is simply ethereal.
Absolutely breaks my heart :( what a beautiful moving and deep song. Eyes are so teary now. Thoughts are with everyone whose lost someone truly special xxx
This song takes me above the clouds with my little ones...powerful stuff
When she sings “Fly fly do not fear” I cry my eyes out
This beautiful song brings memories of my precious daughter every time I listen to it. I know you're flying with angels somewhere Lorna.
I saw this show and this song touched me so much, that years later I used it for my mother's memorial service (she was a tiny, little thing with such a love for life), and there wasn't a dry eye in the place. I also used her "Goodbye is the Saddest Word" which is another tear jerking, gorgeous song.
I’m not one for crying but this song ALWAYS moves me. It’s so Beautiful! Especially the vocalised part, (head voice melody part without vocals).
This is to my furbaby angel. She saved me when i thought noone could.
The same with my Dearest Dear, Molly, a beautiful little Cockapoo who was with me through my Dad's death, and so many more good and bad memories!!
Can't stop my tears even if i listen this 100 times
i can‘t stop crying. this was absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. So much talent, so much emotion wow
This goes out to my beautiful sister who last away Monday to kidney an heart failure..I didn't know she was that sick ..fly high sweet girl
My condolences man. Hope you’re hanging there well my friend.
So sorry for your lost....
Lost my younger 18 year old brother 20 years ago this coming August (2022) to Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Have always loved this song. Seeing her singing it in dedication to and memory of her niece, who also suffered from C, just gave the song a whole extra layer of meaning.

My little crossed the rainbow bridge last Wednesday at the age of 14. This has always been a beautiful song for us.
For me, this is the most heartbreaking and emotion song I've ever heard.....
So emotional and I can't help myself but cry😭😭😭
In each and every song i be emotional xxx I love Celion Dion xx
Beautiful song was played at my twin baby grand daughters funeral 💔 😢 😔 breaks my heart xx
For celin Dion and the family's your voice is so beautiful I know it's hard to lose someone's in your heart and your love always be there in their hearts
Always loved this beautiful song!! So emotional and nice❤️😊
This song has touched me very deep since it first came out! It has such a beautiful and heartbreaking sense to it, and very calming! I've been a HUGE fan of Celines for a little over 30 years, and there'll never be anyone better!

I cry every time I hear this song. It's beautiful but so bitter sweet. I can't imagine what it's like to lose a child or a niece or nephew but I am happy that Karine is getting her due honor.
RIP to my cousin who died when I was 6. She dies of cancer. And RIP to my grandma who died in a house fire in 2011😢😥
Grace taylor im sorry...
I'm soo sorry....... 😭 here's a little kiss
😘😘
Grace Taylor my heart goes out to you. I'm sorry for your loss.

Avery hard song to sing in all aspects but my gosh A Queen. A True Gem❤
You can tell she was so emotional. She held herself so well though. While this isn’t typically my kind of music, I love this song and I love Celine Dion. My youngest sister passed away two months ago; just a month shy of her 16th birthday. This song brings me comfort
In 2012 I lost my little nephew, he was 2 years and 4 months. I played this song for him to say goodbye. Every time I hear this song, I cry 😭😭😭
My condolences to your family

I also number among those songs Elton John's Father and Son. It's about a father and his son who is in the hospital dying from AIDS.
No body can hurt you my dearest brothers any more! And I hope we will meet in heaven when it’s time❤️😔😔
Beautiful beautiful just love ❤️ omg I’m so sorry

Magnifique chanson mais tellement triste , Karine est au ciel et je lui souhaite une belle éternité
Amazing
I always say that celine really deserve her title as the power queen of ballad.
