which cover song of celine dion's do you dislike the most?

the choices are: jennifer rush's 'the power of love', eric carmen's 'all by myself', AC DC's 'you shook me all night long', cyndi lauper's 'i drove all night' and heart's 'alone'

I so much prefer Celine's version of POWER OF LOVE. To heck with Jennifer's version. ;)

AC/DC hands down the worst version.

"You Shook Me All Night Long"....what was she thinking? :rolleyes:

I can just imagine her next album...Celine Sings AC/DC :lol:

cyndi lauper's 'i drove all night' and heart's 'alone'

Both of these are covers, Roy Orbison originally recorded "I Drove All Night" and I-Ten did the original of "Alone."

Only one I've heard is "I Drove All Night", but I didn't like it. AC/DC??? :eek: I doubt I'd like "All By Myself" either.

I also hate Celine's cover of John Lennon's "Beautiful Boy". John's version is one of the most moving and passionate songs he ever wrote and she simply ruined it. :mad:

On the album she is going to cover "Highway to Hell", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)" and "Thunderstruck". On tour she is going to dress like Brian Johnson. :lol:

i loved heart's 'alone' so much that i loathed celine's rendition. she butchered that classic to death

oh ok. i already knew roy orbison sang 'i drove all night', but i never knew heart's version of 'alone' was a cover. i went on you tube and so far nobody has posted a video or recording of the original rendition by i-ten. celine should be barred from doing cover versions- period

Ok, I wasn't sure since you credited Cyndi Lauper with singing it.

Some of those covers I've never heard - but I'll vote for All By Myself. I just hate the song - including Eric Carmen's original!!

Why don't you like Eric version? That was a top song the year I was born. Okay, that's probably why you don't like it. :lol: ;)

Celine's cover of "Beautiful Boy" was an album track and was never released as a single. I've heard it only because my mom has the CD. I'm sure you've heard John's verson, and you'll probably agree that it is a great song from a father to his infant son. Celine's version sounds like she phoned it in.

i'm with you on this one. that song is so dreary and depressing. i prefer upbeat songs. i do like the odd power ballad, but with most of them i cannot stand listening to them

I don't think so. :lol:

:lol: well, i have- just so i can find out for myself how crappy celine's cover versions are in contrast to the original songs themselves. i also think that she is so overrated as a singer. i don't understand all the fuss surrounding her. but of course she is famous for that now infamous titantic anthem 'my heart will go on'. talk about wanting to stick my finger down my throat and gag
