I cried like a baby! i still do every time i hear her singing at the OG! I traveled to London (Earl's Court) and Paris (Bercy) to her shows back in the 90´s! SHE IS QUEEN! Greetings from Portugal 💙💙💙💙
I think everyone was reacting the way Hoda did. We couldn't believe it at first when the first notes came because until that moment, Celine was nowhere to be seen during the opening ceremony. But save the best for last and wow, did she impress and leave us speechless during her performance. Everyone was just rooting for her after all she has been through and we were just in awe of her resilience and her determination to sing once again! I keep getting teary eyed when I watch her performance! ❤❤❤
I have watched this so many times!!!!!! And I cry every time!!!!! Celine crushed it so beautifully!!!!! I am so happy for her and Love the Reactions to her😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜
What a grand and beautiful triumphant return to the stage!! 😭🥳🥳🥳 I agree that a part 2 would be fantastic!! I’ve watched the documentary at least 10 times. 🥰
The day after her performance I watched the documentary and I was so touched by her suffering but also I felt admiration for her honesty and her power. She was showing herself without make up and sharing her emotions and pain and I thought how brave of her to be so honest and open. How many stars would dare to do this. She is a wonderful person blessed with a strong will. She inspires me.
Same here celines music has helped me through my darkest times I just hear the beautiful pureness in her voice and it just makes me feel so much better. She is such an inspiration to me and so many other people 😊
She has such a fabulous voice and is such a wonderful person. It is so great to have her talents back and she is proof that if a person works hard enough they can accomplish and overcome what ever they want. God bless her and her loved ones.😊
Thank you so much! I just knew that there had to be a longer video of Hoda and Savannah's reactions to hearing Celine sing then just the few-seconds clip I've seen! I watched Hoda's interview with Celine, so I really wanted to see her reaction! Celine Dion is absolutely incredible.
you are dear! I LOVE your spirit! Beautiful talking over Celine so you can share your JOY of her triumphant return since you have to "talk over it" in order to share it! You are so FUN and sincere!! LOOOV your videos!!
What an emotional come back for our Queen Celine . She sang perfectly she is such an inspirational woman . After watching her documentary it was almost unbelievable. Watching that docu just shows what a strong willed woman she is .I cried with joy watching her OG performance. She is most definitely back . Good on you Celine , you refuse to be dictated to by such a horrible disease . Keep gojng you are beating this . Your willpower goes way beyond .❤
😂tears of happiness, joy, and love for the life God has given Cilene Dion to share with the world. She is s true Olympic Winner. I love you Celine ❤ Blessings to you and your Boys.
She was magnificent - what little I heard. I wish we could have just heard her sing it all the way through without the commentaries from everyone. I wanted to hear the song and just ENJOY IT. I tried to get it on youtube but all I heard was the many comments from way too many people who had to describe it all. No, we just want to hear Celine magnificent voice of an amazing song. . Period. Her voice -- not the fucking comments & description about her voice, her journey, her comeback..... just her singing. And it was MAGNIFIQUE.
I teared up the first time she sang this song on American Music Award when they paid tribute to the victims of terrorism. I cried again when she sang this again at the Olympics. Great singers have sung this song, including the original Edith Piaf but no one had tugged my heart more than Celine. Her interpretation is just heart warming. I wish her good health and speedy recovery.❤❤❤ I hope, after the Olympics, Celine will make a surprise visit to Hoda during their live broadcast and see her just make an ugly cry 😘😭🥰
Ohmigosh, yes! To see how Celine came back from where she was at the end of her documentary to this amazing performance, would just be SO SO inspiring!
I hope this live version gets released as a single and/or is allowed to be on an album. And I hope that this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship for Hoga and Celine. She said in the documentary that she doesn’t have many friends and that broke my heart for her. To grow up in a nuclear family of 14 and then not have many friends after your spouse dies just makes me ACHE for her. Although it must be hard to trust people when every move you make is news…

Yeah I would like to see that follow up documentary. I think it would be such a positive viewing showing us all how hard work and perseverance and ' balls' pays off 😅😅😅😂😂😂❤❤😊
I love her it scears to know she'd passed away why did they say she was dead already, and also had a funeral for her also, that it not nice, sorry to know we lost these singer's star's in there own rights, 2o24, girl are you still here with us? tell me that you're still here, god you Celine Dion.
It was on video the other day that Celine Dion had past away on the 25th of July . How sick for someone to say something like that's they shout be jailed that's horrible . Xxxx❤❤❤❤
I have been a huge fan of Celine Dion for as long as I remember. I can tell within a few seconds if she is singing live or not by just looking at her behavior. The Olympics performance was not live. It was lip synced. Not only that, my speculation is that it was recorded many years ago (not even recently). Go watch her performance at the American Music Awards 2015. The two performances are almost identical. Play them on top of each other and you will see what I mean. The one at the Olympics though seems to have been touched and dubbed (in this day and age with autotune, software, and AI what is left impossible?!). For instance, there were a few parts that were cracky and off but they are mostly fixed to perfection. I don't blame her for lip syncing in her conditions especially as she propably committed to this performance a few years ago and I certainly find her voice beautiful and touching (I cry every time I listen to it)!. But I do not get the media and fans' insist that she sang live.
I, too, would love to know how she pulled that off. It was the 1st ? I asked myself after I started breathing again when she finished. How in the bloody *^&^ did she pull that off? Then I thought: well, I think I do know (well, besides the OMG medical things she went through). I was once a 4 octave Mezzo Soprano. I taught choirs and music (K5) for @ 20 years. Then I was dx'd w Spasmodic Dysphonia (which ENTs later disagreed w). I had the exact same thing Celine did - that loss of power, raspy, breathy...but it was the breaks that drove me crazy. I would almost get there and *train wreck.* I couldn't fix the pitch. My range was destroyed. Later, ENTs told me it was that I was being too tight w my voice & it was bc of Acid Reflux damage. I chalked it up to teaching The dx doc's assistant (Dr. Stasney - if you know, you know) took me into a sound proof room & worked w me to move my lower range into my head voice...to shift my voice into my head voice always...to combat the loss asp\break etc That was 2015. All these years later, and oh how I cried w her when she was raging against the loss....begging her voice to work...the loss of not being able to do what she was born to do/to perform.... I have a suspicion that it was a multi front attack: 1) one hell of a team of docs\therapists and one woman with a will that should be carved into Greek Statues in the Parthenon 2) Curious @ injections but... 3) shifting her range and head voice....listen to the key it's in. She's maximizing her upper range...and letting the rasp fall where it can be maximized...on those lush, lower words and notes... The rasp...even the break... is emotional...and it fits the words...so who cares if it's not pure perfection. 4) Let her expand into head voice, maximize her obviously HELLA diaphragm from over the years BEHIND the frozen muscles....(heck my voice teacher put her hands on my ribs one day and pulled them out to expand my diaphragm....I kid you not...not saying she did buuuuuut....that woman was *determined* And....that's the result. I also think she had some medical assistance.... ALLL that said. I have really not been a fan of Celine. I was all mushy at the end of the ceremony when I heard one of the world's most recognizable voices. I hadn't even heard of the documentary But I *HEARD* her. And I knew, from the words, that she was singing to her husband, Rene'. It was the WORDS that moved me...and how she imparted her soul into them. And then, oh god I saw that documentary. I may not have been a fan before but lady: I respect the HELL out of you. And I hurt with you for all the odd reasons...I don't have a voice like hers...I mean, who does on this Earth? But I do know what if felt like that day when your voice is just not right, and how terrifyingly bad you want it back And it's gone. Oh, how I want to see the rest of that story. Good. God. Almighty Y'all What a woman.
The opening ceremony were some ugly parts but Celine Dion singing was the best very very best!!!! She was worth listening to!!! ❤ my heart goes to that wonderful woman!!!
Please! This woman Hoda reacts like that when she hears a weather report or reads a menu. She makes the same rubber-band faces no matter what she's hearing.
Paris 2024 did not respect Celine Dion (or any of us for that matter). To have this phenomenon of a voice sing in this monumental moment and have three people listening to her live is sooooo disrespectful! I dont know who decided that the Olympic ceremony should have no athletes or no spectators but it was so sad to watch
I cried like a baby! i still do every time i hear her singing at the OG! I traveled to London (Earl's Court) and Paris (Bercy) to her shows back in the 90´s! SHE IS QUEEN! Greetings from Portugal 💙💙💙💙
Me too just unbelievable beautiful
My peni also cry
... yip, goose bumps and happy tears for Celine Champion!!
Celine Dion DID win the Olympics, and hearts worldwide. Magnificent!
I think everyone was reacting the way Hoda did. We couldn't believe it at first when the first notes came because until that moment, Celine was nowhere to be seen during the opening ceremony. But save the best for last and wow, did she impress and leave us speechless during her performance. Everyone was just rooting for her after all she has been through and we were just in awe of her resilience and her determination to sing once again! I keep getting teary eyed when I watch her performance! ❤❤❤
She was, She is, she will be, Incomparable. She Is Unique. We love her with all our hearts, our Céline!
Incomparable doesn't explain Celine Dion voice
I have watched this so many times!!!!!! And I cry every time!!!!!
Celine crushed it so beautifully!!!!!
I am so happy for her and Love the Reactions to her😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜
I can’t even listen to the first few words without crying again. What an AUTHENTICALLY strong passionate person. Inspiring 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Here I am again with tears freely flowing!!! What a magnificent moment in time, long live the queen!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The performance made me cry. Hoda & Savannah's reaction made me cry. BRAVO CELINE!
What a grand and beautiful triumphant return to the stage!! 😭🥳🥳🥳 I agree that a part 2 would be fantastic!! I’ve watched the documentary at least 10 times. 🥰
I just love her so much. So many tears fell for Celine’s victory ❤
Every single time I hear it, I get goosebumps and tears roll down my face. Celine Dion became immortal that night!❤
The day after her performance I watched the documentary and I was so touched by her suffering but also I felt admiration for her honesty and her power.
She was showing herself without make up and sharing her emotions and pain and I thought how brave of her to be so honest and open.
How many stars would dare to do this.
She is a wonderful person blessed with a strong will.
She inspires me.
Same here celines music has helped me through my darkest times I just hear the beautiful pureness in her voice and it just makes me feel so much better. She is such an inspiration to me and so many other people 😊
Love seeing the reactions of people who were there, light on their faces, staring up at her. Most of us only experienced this on TV. Thank you.
Celine is unstoppable and she just proved it!
Amen I’m happy she’s back to god be the glory
She has such a fabulous voice and is such a wonderful person. It is so great to have her talents back and she is proof that if a person works hard enough they can accomplish and overcome what ever they want. God bless her and her loved ones.😊

That night the Seine flooded its banks with tears of emotion❤
"When i can't run i will walk if i can't walk i will crawl but i won't stop!" Liveing proof to never give up!

I hope, after the Olympics, Celine will make a surprise visit to Hoda during their live broadcast and see her just make an ugly cry 😘😭🥰
I cry every time I hear her it’s beautiful please God protect her always
A true Canadian 🇨🇦 Icon
Une icône québécoise avant tout. ;)
Ohmigosh, yes! To see how Celine came back from where she was at the end of her documentary to this amazing performance, would just be SO SO inspiring!
I love you my Idol Çeline Dion well comeback i love you so much 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍God Blessed you
I appreciate your videos! 🙂 It feels professional and sane.
Stunning performance
Love You Celine!!!!
WHAT A STRONG DETERMINED WOMAN, GOD BLESS HER
I hope this live version gets released as a single and/or is allowed to be on an album. And I hope that this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship for Hoga and Celine. She said in the documentary that she doesn’t have many friends and that broke my heart for her. To grow up in a nuclear family of 14 and then not have many friends after your spouse dies just makes me ACHE for her. Although it must be hard to trust people when every move you make is news…

Lo mismo aquí comenzó con 7000 hace dos meses, ahora puedo decir con valentía que he recibido más de 23,000.
Dios es genial☺️!!

Por favor 🙏, ¿cómo puedo comunicarme con esta Regina Maria Howard? Realmente he oído mucho sobre ella.
Yeah I would like to see that follow up documentary.
I think it would be such a positive viewing showing us all how hard work and perseverance and ' balls' pays off 😅😅😅😂😂😂❤❤😊
Bravo -- great job Graeme!!!
WOW the Queen is back 😂🎉❤
Celine could sing once a year on a stage I have no access to and I'd be here for it.
Oh I like this so much❤😊
A gold medal performance
Bravo bravo I missed you
I agree with you there should be a update documentary now but you don't want to take that away from Irene Taylor unless she does the next one
Celine's performance gave class to the closing ceremony, unlike the opening trashy disaster!
I love her it scears to know she'd passed away why did they say she was dead already, and also had a funeral for her also, that it not nice, sorry to know we lost these singer's star's in there own rights, 2o24, girl are you still here with us? tell me that you're still here, god you Celine Dion.
Magnificent!
She's like bird Phoenix!🧡
God bless you ,
It was on video the other day that Celine Dion had past away on the 25th of July . How sick for someone to say something like that's they shout be jailed that's horrible . Xxxx❤❤❤❤
Agree - especially for her kids who have to read all this BS
Don't believe everything you hear and see.
Your commentary is fantastic!! Copyright or no copyright. 🤣🤣

BRAVO Celine
Shame it just couldn’t be Dion’s voice and Hoda’s reactions and NONE OF THE AUDIO FROM GRAME ONeil.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You won this from start to finish you get there
It’s a big chance that she was there! Pur class, like the way everybody think about Paris!
Welcome back Celine
Agree!!! There should be a second part of I am Celine Dion… there’s lots of confused people that thinks she recovered in 2 months 🙄
Double thumb up to you Cilion Dion
♥️💗
She will be back better her performance at the Olympics proves it
Good idea about dic part 2! Great commentary, Graeme.
I, too, would love to know how she pulled that off. It was the 1st ? I asked myself after I started breathing again when she finished. How in the bloody *^&^ did she pull that off?

Oh, how I want to see the rest of that story.
Good. God. Almighty Y'all
What a woman.
Céline not Slin, for Gods sake!
Unbelieve!! WOW xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Why is this running so fast that you can’t even understand it
This guys show has snipples of Dion in it. Its all about camera on him🧐
Sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but she's lip-synching to a processed studio recording.
Love Celine Dion. Cannot stomach phoney Hoda Kotb.
The opening ceremony were some ugly parts but Celine Dion singing was the best very very best!!!! She was worth listening to!!! ❤ my heart goes to that wonderful woman!!!
Sorry but she was lip-synching😔
Our Songbird
Please! This woman Hoda reacts like that when she hears a weather report or reads a menu. She makes the same rubber-band faces no matter what she's hearing.
Paris 2024 did not respect Celine Dion (or any of us for that matter). To have this phenomenon of a voice sing in this monumental moment and have three people listening to her live is sooooo disrespectful! I dont know who decided that the Olympic ceremony should have no athletes or no spectators but it was so sad to watch
She could make you believe in God. Regal, class and smarts. much to love.
Wonderful to see her but she mimed!
I am not a fan of her ,but i cried like a Baby.
😁😄😃😀🇨🇦🇨🇦
Can you please stop interrupting the song, geeeeeeezzzzz
GREAT!, FANTASTIC! WONDERFUL! BUT was it live or lip sync'd?, hear an orchestra but never seen, only a piano player...
Celine did a good job.... But I think the current French Pop singer Zaz sounded more like Piaf
Taylor Swift....step aside girl....THIS IS LEGENDARY talent.
Me too
ONeil, take care of yourself!
I can not listen to Grame
