V.A - Compilation Album: "TRIBUTE TO Celine Dion"
"TRIBUTE TO Celine Dion" is a Japan only tribute album for Canadian diva, Céline Dion. The compilation features a multitude of Japanese domestic artists (mostly from Sony) covering Dion songs. melody.'s rendition of That's the Way It Is was originally announced to appear on the album as track 10, but it was later removed for unknown reasons. The album also features a DVD with the music video for K featuring aki's version of To Love You More.
Interestingly, two of the songs covered on the album are not original Dion songs, but ones that she has covered. They are Jennifer Rush's The Power of Love and Pandora's Box's It's All Coming Back to Me Now.
The cover is an anime version of the cover of Dion's All the Way... A Decade of Song best album. All of the songs from this tribute album (except for The Prayer) appear on the Japanese edition of All the Way.

Old Review:
First of all, I happen to be a fan of Celine Dion. I don't care what anyone says, but she's undeniably one of the best female vocalists ever. Thus, I was super curious as to how this tribute album would sound. Thank goodness they chose artists that have decent english; some of them still have a slight accent, but it's withstand-able. Yuna Ito is an excellent choice to sing "My Heart Will Go On", so I'm satisfied with the result. SOULHEAD is a weird choice to sing "Beauty and The Beast", given that they're a hip-hop female duo, and the song is meant to be a male-female duet. Yet, somehow they managed to pull it off. The only song I have a problem with is "To Love You More". One, it's sung by a guy with plain vocals (and an accent...), and two, they turned it into a Jazz song. The original version is so emotional and powerful, and they dumbed it down so much. Otherwise, these are great renditions of the original versions, but Celine's version will of course, remain forever superior.
Personal Favorites: 1,3,4,5,8,9
