See this content in the original post

Since the 1990s, Canadian chanteuse Celine Dion has proven again and again that she is one of the most amazing singers in the world. She's topped the charts in multiple decades, becoming one of THE best-selling recording artists AND touring performers in the world, winning a slew of international awards, and contributing songs that will go on – and on – in the cultural conversation. A series of tragic circumstances have impacted Celine's continued ability to perform, but after her triumphant return at the Paris Olympics, Celine seems poised for a comeback. Now the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to show its support to her incredible artistry by naming the Best Celine Dion Song ever. Songs discussed: “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now,” “If You Asked Me To,” “A New Day Has Come,” “The Prayer,” “All By Myself,” “I’m Alive,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Because You Loved Me,” “My Heart Will Go On,” “O Holy Night,” “Where Does My Heart Beat Now,” “I Drove All Night,” “The Power of Love,” “To Love You More,” “Tell Him,” “That’s The Way It Is.”

Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Curtis Creekmore, Derek Mekita, and Jake Lewis as they discuss 16 of Celine Dion’s best tracks.
