I wasn’t much of a fan of Celine’s until I accompanied a friend to one of her concerts about 20 years ago. It was absolutely mind blowing how great of an artist and performer she is. If you ever get a chance to see her in concert, go!

I was obsessed with this song and video back in 96. Definitely one her best.

Jim Steinmann, was the genius behind the magic..Meatloaf,Celine,Bonnie Tyler,Air Supply and even Barry Manilow had hits with his compositions...RIP JIM...LEGEND 👍👍👍

Celine was wonderful, but Jim Steinman the writer made this song magical.

I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) and It's All Coming Back to Me Now were both written by Jim Steinman and are without question musical moments in history! 💯

celine dion & bee gees - immortality ...... spooky and beautiful

Celine can do no wrong! She has so many gems 💎 Flying on my own, Fade away, Water from the moon, One heart and my fave written by Sia and backing vocals by Sia called Lying down 👌👌👌 chilling!!!!

This song is one of my all time favorites, and it was actually originally written for Meatloaf by the same person who wrote the other song you just reacted to the other day, so you’re not imagining things hearing the similarities. He didn’t record his version until after this became a hit for Celine though.

Steinman & Meatloaf argued over this song. Meat said it was written for him & intended for Bat II. Steinman said it wasn't written for Meat & he'd always intended it for a woman (& IF I recall correctly, Steinman took legal steps to stop Meat from recording it). Steinman then put a group together (Pandora's Box), just for 1 album, & released the original in 1989. The group included Steinman, Ellen Foley, Elaine Caswell, Todd Rundgren, Rory Dodd & others. I'm assuming, after 2 "female versions", Steinman finally relented, since Meat recorded it in 2006 (I favor his duet version).

@@wnsafford1854 yes that’s what I heard as well. Personally I don’t like Meat Loaf’s version as I don’t think it works as a duet and I just don’t get the same emotion as I do from Celine. That’s my personal opinion and I’m not saying that you are wrong just don’t think his version is as good. But yeah that’s the story behind the song and I’m so glad you told it so well!

I came here for the Celine Dion. I stayed as soon as I saw Sandman on the shelf.

Your love of Céline is amazing. You'd love "The Power of Love," "My Heart Will Go On," "To Love Me More" and "River Deep Mountain High" live from "A New Day" in Vegas.

Céline is THE Queen of Power Ballads. Her magnum opus!

All By Myself Live from Boston will blow you away. Celine is the REAL deal. Greatest living vocal artist. She's just as good live as recorded. I heard her raw vocals live at David Foster's house (her producer) and she is as good sitting in a room with you as the record. Icon. Legend.

Jim Steinman is the composer of many incredible songs, including some of Bonnie Tyler, Meatloaf and that from Celine Dion.

The Power of Love by Celine Dion...it will blow your mind

This song sung by Celine is my all-time favorite, it peaked at #2 on billboard Oct 26, 1996… 5 weeks at # 2

I miss the good ol days, not just this song or the music but everything...

Your Celine Dion reactions are my absolute favorite, please do more!

The best Céline Dion song for me. This made me a fan of hers back in 1997.

🤘💙🤘 Love her voice. My favorite song from her is, That's The Way It Is.

celine is amazing , check out more of her

Haaaa, I knew you'd love it! You're welcome 🤣🤣🤣 This song is such a classic, it's like a whole movie

Celine cut her feet while filming this video, because of the glass etc on the ground. She never said anything to anyone. She still carried on over several days filming this. Celine is the best version of a DIVA!! Jim Steinman was a genius. His videos were mini movies. His power ballads were massive! Meatloaf was not happy Celine getting this song! You're right, Celine is theatrical. She's a performer in the true sense. There are a lot of amazing singers out there who can belt and hit the notes Celine can hit. But it doesn't always feel the same way. There's no humour, or drama, or emotion. That's why she is one of the best selling singers in history. That's why people still listen to her, and go to her concerts.

lol you fuckin queen'd out at 5:57 HAHA. it was awesome :D good video Anton!

This was a massive massive hit. And from then forward......non stop. And man she is a powerhouse. I cannot find anything she has done that is not beyond amazing.

Yayyyy a new celine dion reaction please do power of love, to love you more, all by myself

I just stumbled across your channel and I have not been disappointed. I have just soent the last hour watching your videos and I absolutely love your enthusiasm for Celine Dion. I have been in LOVE with Celine for 30 years. I have one of her french albums and I don't even speak french 😅❤ She is an absolute legend

Meat Loaf had wanted to record the song for years, but Jim Steinman saw it as a "woman's song". Steinman won a court movement preventing Meat Loaf from recording it. Girl group 'Pandora's Box' went on to record it 7 years before this version by Celine.

My favorite Celine Dion song is "Because You Loved Me' written by the great Diane Warren!!

Been lucky to see her a few times every time she comes to the UK. My favourite was her lets talk about love tour at the old Wembley stadium I believe around 60k people attended that night. Also every time you do a celine song brings me alot of joy

Wonderful song!Celine is an incredible artist ,who can belt out the ballads and give you the chills.You`re right ,when you find music that moves you ,it`s very special.Music conveys so many emotions ,and when the singers are as good as Adele and Celine ,they`re on another level.One of her first singles "Think Twice" is definitely worth a listen..equally as good.

i request you to react to this legendary songs by the iconic Céline Dion : * Because You Loved Me * Think Twice * the power of love * I Want You To Need Me * Water from the Moon * Goodbye's (The Saddest Word) * Immortality * Have You Ever Been In Love I love your reaction to my queen...waiting for more Celine

I love your Celine reactions! I would like to add that some of her best music is her French discography. I don’t even speak French and I’m in love with her French music. If I were to recommend a song to wet your appetite to her french music I would recommend Blues du businessman live in Paris 1995. Read the lyrics in English first to understand the song. Then watch the video. I would LOVE to see your reaction. Her performance there is very powerful. Thank you for your reaction videos! :)

There’s elements of both Meatloaf’s I’d Do Anything For Love and Bonnie Tyler’s Total Eclipse Of The Heart (when she’s running through the hallways, with the wind), which funnily enough Jim Steinman both wrote. Jim Steinman had a talent for writing incredible and dynamic songs from the 80’s and 90’s. RIP Jim Steinman and Meatloaf.

So glad that you are reacting to the longer version of this song..

The song structure (pacing), arrangement, and lyrics are what stand out in this song. Jim Steinman was a genius at taking you on an emotional ride. Celine was an excellent muse for this song (her best). While the video may remind you of other videos produced for Meatloaf and Bonnie Tyler, Simon Archer (cinematographer) and Jaromir Svarc (art director) really did an outstanding job melding the music and video into one. Your body language @9:51 said it all (rollercoaster ride of emotions as the ride slowly comes to an end - endorphin rush via video). Celine Dionne and Sarah Brightman are very good at taking a song and embracing it emotionally with artistic restraint. Jim Steinman (writer) was a master at tempo changes (stepping down for effect) and very elaborate bridges (Read Em and Weep) that smoothly bring you to a glide to eventually a solid coda. What you are reacting to is a writer with formal music training and experience leveraging standard song structure at an advanced level. Most power ballads are written by artists with a sound music background / training.

R.i.P. Jim Steinman. Thank you for the wonderful music you created.

Celine has an extraordinary range and can perform pretty much any genre. She's truly an amazing performer and is just as good if not better in live performances. Everyone I know who doesn't care for her music and has seen her live shows are sold on her.

I love Celine!

Hehe this song was originally recorded by Pandora's Box. You could check out something more recent from her like Courage or Imperfections. Or if you would like to go back even further back in time you can check out "if you asked me to" or even her first english single " where does my heart beat now". Talking about Meat Loaf, Céline also recorded another ML song named "it's nothing sacred"

Celine Queen ... ❤️

I would recommend next from celine dion "the power of love, because you loved me, and to love you more.

I remember when she first release this video back 1996-97 , that was a moment i fall in love with her until now. Such a nostalgic song

You just have to say WOW. ...

You're awesome thanks !

Music videos in the 1990s were amazing. Madonna “ take a bow” Sinead OConnor “ nothing compares to you”. Guns N Roses “November Rain” Madonna “Vogue” Nirnana “ Smells like teen spirit” Van Halen “right now” Eminem “ my name is” Janet Jackson “ again” All incredible music videos

Funny story … Jim Steinmen was brought in to produce Def Leppard’s album Hysteria…..it did not go well lol. He was replaced by Mutt Lange (ex husband of Shania Twain)

Next please react to Celine Dion - I Surrender (Live in Las Vegas 2007),

It's awesome that you say that so fast about it reminding you of Meatloaf because the guy who wrote this (Jim Steinman) also wrote Meatloafs songs! In fact Meatloaf has a version of this song that he did as well but of course Celine kills it! It's amazing!

The best female vocalist of all time, idc what anyone says, ive seen her live in Vegas...as good as studio. She's actually unbelievable

Great reaction!🙂

David Foster produced it. He does most of Celine’s work and Barbara’s. He’s in the video for Tell Him & it shows the collaboration.

Her "BABY! BABY! BABY!" is nothing short of iconic.

Yes!!! My favorite of her sings just so grand and ethereally romantic

Thanks for sharing so honestly with us Anton.

You should try reacting to her masterpiece “My Heart Will Go On” live from Boston 🙏

I don't know why you would think that people would be mad at you for that opinion of Celine or of this song, because most people have that opinion long before you. You are late to the party as far as feeling that Celine Dion is a legend. I don't think anyone could disagree that she is truly incredible even if they don't necessarily love this kind of music. Seriously, I don't think you are going to find a song of hers that doesn't impress you.

I alway cry when I listen to this song. It is so emotional and powerful.

If you haven't covered "calling you" from her concert live in Paris 1995, you really are missing out. It's incredible. It's just not human and you are guaranteed goosebumps.

Es maravillosa , what a beautiful artist !!!!!!!!

This song was originally recorded in 1989 by Elaine Caswell for the Pandora's Box collective, consisting of songwriter Jim Steinman and a few female session singers.

Both I would do anything for love and this are written by Jim steinman . Good spot!. And great song(s)

The best celine you should foe is All by myself live in Boston its a solutes brilliant t

Jim Steinman is the writer to both this and most of Meat Loafs songs. It is the yo yo effect of writing. Pull you in, push you away type thing. Jim died not too long ago. He was also the piano player on most of Meats songs and this one too. He also wrote for Air Supply!!

You are so fucking handsome!!! That smile is so beautiful. Ugh ADORE Celine too. Idol

You know that this song is trending on Tik_Tok

Meatloaf did do this song with a woman called Marion Ravn. It’s awesome!

Jim Steinmsn wrote this and Meat Loafs songs as well as "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler, "Making Love Out of Nothing st All" by Air Supply, and "Read 'Em and Weep" by Barry Manilow"

I love Celine Dion but I love you voice Art Vision Reaction!

His reaction.... A TRUE FAN❤

It is impossible to love everything. I myself would not be able to do reactions because 90% of all songs i dont even like. And to sit and listen to a song you dont really like destroys alot. Great reactions Anton! Music is for everyone, just the songs that is not for everyone.

Interesting that you mentioned it reminded you of Meatloaf. I looked up the song last night and the writer, Jim Steinman, repeatedly turned Meatloaf down when he requested to record it saying it was meant to be sung by a woman. The song was inspired by "Wuthering Heights". Also, if you're interested, meatloaf did eventually do a version of this song in 2006

So good to see younger people reacting to (and enjoying) songs I grew up listening to. (Oh, I loved when you searched for the credits of this song and found the "Falling Into You" album. I used to have this CD, but my dad damaged it.) In 1999 Celine Dion released her compilation "All The Way... A Decade of Song (and Video)" and this video had both versions included on the DVD - which is gold. It is funny when I remember this TV special (back in the 90s) where Celine said "It's All Coming Back To Me" had been the biggest song she had ever recorded and some time later she recorded the main song from Titanic. I don't know whether you have reacted to any of her live performances or not, but be sure to react to "The Power of Love (Live in Memphis, 1997)". The whole concert is awesome by the way. Thanks for sharing your videos here.

Hi Anton. I LOVE your reactions! Since You’ve loved all the Celine Dion songs you´ve reacted to, I thought you would truly love this walk through her career: All By Myself (live at the Grammies) > I Drove All Night > The Prayer (with Andrea Bocelli) > Because You Loved Me > Taking Chances > The Power Of Love > Seduces Me > Then You Look At Me (ultimate fan favorite) > That´s Just The Woman In Me (Celine in Janis Joplin mode) > Immortality (with the Bee Gees) > I Surrender > River Deep Mountain High (live versión, Tina Turner cover) > To Love You More > Falling Into You > Beauty And The Beast > Surprise Surprise > The Reason (with Carole King) > Call The Man (live)> Think Twice (greatest hit in the UK) > Courage > Loved Me Back To Life (written by Sia) > The Hard Way > The Colour Of My Love (her wedding song) > Lying Down (Sia and David Guetta) > My Love (live) > Imperfections > Breakaway. Believe me, you would reeeeally enjoy it! Keep rocking!

It's actually a song written by him actually. That's why it has the same vibes with I'd Do Anything For Love

Celine song and video came first it was her first big hit the songwriter thought a woman's voice would go best with the song but meatloaf wanted the song but the songwriter chose Celine Dion and sometime after Celine video and song dropped meatloaf did his version of the song

The original was in 1989, by Pandora's Box (with female lead vocals). Jim Steinman (the writer) put the group together, which included Steinman, Elaine Caswell, Ellen Foley, Todd Rundgren & others. Celine's cover was 1996 & Meatloaf's cover (a duet with Marion Raven) was 2006.

"To Love You More" is BEAUTIFULLY written and performed!

She also did a song that Meat Loaf did, you should check them both out - I Drove all Night! (Celine video) & (Meat Loaf video)

This song and video has always been great. It makes me cry. She lost him

Try Célines version of I can't help falling in love '93, only one road live from tonight show '94, and calling you live in Paris '95...her diversity is incredible...power, emotion, she has it all. And for upbeat...I'm alive from david letterman...all are live, which is even more incredible

If you haven’t reacted to The Power of Love or Think Twice by Celine Dion, then treat yourself and do it ^_^

This reminds you of Meatloaf because it was originally written for him by the late musical genius Jim Steinman - the same guy who wrote "Anything For Love" and a host of other fantastic Meatloaf tracks - not to mention "Total Eclipse of the Heart" for Bonnie Tyler and many others.

Since you've liked Meat Loaf in your past reactions, you really ought to check out his version of this song (done as a duet), from the album "Bat Out of Hell III." Jim Steinman, who wrote most of Meat Loaf's songs, wrote this one as well -- originally intending for it to be sung by Meat Loaf on the followup album to the original "Bat Out of Hell." However, Meat Loaf and Steinman had a falling out for a few years, and Meat Loaf never recorded the song until many years later (2006). In the meantime, Steinman gave the song to Celine, who obviously did a wonderful job. But do yourself a favor and also check out Meat Loaf's version.
