Details: Amazon.ca Throughout her 25 year career, Celine Dion has always been filled with great pride and love regarding her French-Canadian heritage, yet in all her years of performing--since her debut as a songwriter at the age of 12--she has never put out an official French Greatest Hits disc in her first language... until now. The double-disc collection is filled with songs spanning her incredibly successful career; with liner notes (written solely in French) that talk about how Céline spent many years learning her craft respected from singer-songwriters who took a young singer under their wings, from Luc Plamondon to Jean-Jacques Goldman. Aside from the previously-released tracks, which include her bubbly hit "Je Danse Dans Ma Tête," the emotive "Ziggy," and the beautiful "Sous Le Vent," a duet with French sensation Garou there are three new tunes to entice fans . Only one is in English, the opera-meets- Titanic sounding "I Believe In You," a duet with a href="/en/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0009IW8B2">Il Divo; the remaining two are the understated "Je Ne Vous Oublie Pas" and "Tous Les Secrets," a song about unconditional love. The one element that is frustratingly absent is the lack of information about the individual tracks in the liner notes: nowhere is there a year of release for each of the 36 songs, nor a story about each song's history. That said, this disc will prove to be a definitive collection to her devoted French fans. Those who purchase the limited edition will find a DVD with exclusive images as well as a video for "Je Ne Vous Oublie Pas". --Denise Sheppard More from Celine Dion
