Amazon.com essential recording
Canadian thrush Celine Dion is primarily a singles artist, which is a good thing, because the soaring, epic style she brings to nearly all of her material is thrilling in four-minute bursts, but nearly overwhelming at album length. Falling into You is Dion's finest attempt to temper that approach--mixing low-key love songs and dance pop between showstoppers such as "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" and the Up Close and Personal movie theme, "Because You Loved Me." Dion's take on Tina Turner's Phil Spector experiment "River Deep, Mountain High" is game, but there's little doubt which singer hails from the Great White North and which one is from Nutbush, Tennessee. --Daniel Durchholz

Maybe Celine's best. February 3, 2003
15 out of 15 found this review helpful

This album is from 1996, before the strong hit of "My heart will go on", maybe we can say that Titanic's song it's Celine's best (me personally I don't think so, the song is good but it was ALL day long in the radio stations) well as I was saying, this album has also big hits as the Top 10 "It's all coming back to me now" an INCREDIBLE song or "because you loved me" which won a Grammy award. Another great song is "You make me feel like a natural woman" I think that I don't need to say that this is a cover from A.Frankling. "Call the man" was a hit in 1997, the impact of the album was incredible, it won Grammy awards, sold nearly 20 million copies, topped The Hot 200 and charted for 150 weeks.
My personal favorite songs from this album are: "It's all coming back to me now", "I love you", "Because you loved me", "If that's what it takes" and "Falling into you".
Celine Dion is a great singer, maybe the world's best, but as a person who has her whole English discography, I think that "Falling into you" and "A new day has come" are her best albums.

The Album That Made Celine Dion An International Superstar! July 3, 2003
14 out of 15 found this review helpful

In 1993, Celine Dion hit the big time with her album The Colour Of My Love. The album featured the massive breakthrough No.1 hit The Power Of Love, and the huge UK No.1 single Think Twice, which sold more than 1 million copies and spent a staggering 31 weeks on the chart. Expectations were high for Celine's follow-up album. Released in the spring of 1996, Falling Into You did not disappoint. The album has sold near to 30 million copies worldwide, and features some of the biggest songs of that particular decade. Celine Dion was now an international superstar, whose incredible vocal talents stunned the world. In comparison to her previous album, Falling Into You is somewhat more uptempo and joyous. The songs have more of a melody, and this works well for Celine.

Falling Into You opens with the fabulous hit single, "It's All Coming Back To Me Now.". The song peaked at No.3 in the UK in October 1996, and is one of Celine's most memorable compositions. The song runs for almost eight minutes, but it doesn't seem that long because once this powerful ballad gets going, you just fall back and enjoy every moment of it. "Because You Loved Me" was another big US No.1 for Celine in June 1996, while it peaked at No.5 in the UK. The song is the theme from the film Up Close And Personal, and it is literally perfect. The lyrical arrangements are beautifully crafted, and Celine's vocals are gorgeous - truly the voice of an angel. "Falling Into You," the album's title track, is another superb song. This mid-tempo classic has a soft touch to it, and a feeling of ambiguity and mysticism as it opens with African drums. The song simply sways with simplicity, and Celine's vocals are awesome once more. The song rises and falls in the middle when Celine sings, "Catch me, don't let me drop. Love me, don't ever stop." We are then treated to a sensual saxophone which really spices things up. Excellent. "Make You Happy" is perhaps the best up-tempo song on the album. Celine sings about making her lover happy in this happy pop number. All these silly pop bands that crave attention in today's music terms should take a listen to this - it's truly pop perfection.

"Seduces Me" is a staggering love ballad. Celine performs this classy song to her optimum best with vocal supremacy when she sings, "And if I should die tomorrow, I'd go down with a smile on my face." Great lyrics, even if she doesn't write them herself. "All By Myself" is...well, wow. This cover-version really does need no introduction. Celine sings for three minutes in a rather subdued tone about how she hates being all alone. Then the song rises, and Celine belts the song out from the bottom of her heart, practically smashing your CD speakers. Her voice is absolutely amazing, and I don't think I've ever heard anything so god-damn wonderful before in my life! Classic ballad. "Declaration Of Love" is another great pop song. This has a sort of old pop sound to it. It sounds very vintage with its (rather) corny vocal arrangements, but this is Celine Dion we're talking about and she can pull anything off. Celine's cover of "(You Make Me Feel Like A) Natural Woman" is not quite as good as the original, but her vocals rival even those of Aretha, not quite pulling it off, but very close. "Dreamin' Of You" is definitely an album highlight. This is pure pop personified, but Celine does it so well. The music is so relaxing and chilled out, and the backing singers highlight this. The verses are co-ordinated well, and Celine's vocals are rather average. This isn't a bad thing, however, as this is the kind of song that one desires to relax to - not to be distracted by epic vocals.

"I Love You" is a great mid-tempo song. The song is more of a ballad, but it contains so many different musical styles that it makes it hard to decipher. Whatever it is, you're sure to love this wonderful love song. "If That's What It Takes" is not a very good song. This is basically a filler, but Celine's vocals save it from being terrible. "I Don't Know" is a spine-tingling chiller of a rock ballad. Celine's vocals echo, and you get the impression that she's singing it as she stands on the top of a mountain with the world at her feet. A saxophone and an electric guitar enhance the epic feel of this song. Definite highlight. "River Deep, Mountain High" is a good cover-version of Tina Turner's classic. This version is not as good, and Celine seems to try desperately to beat Tina in the vocal stakes. Besides this, the song has a modern feel to it, which is rather interesting. "Your Light" is a great pop song. This song is sung in a sort of country style, in which Celine's vocals seem forced to sounds traditionally American. Not bad, but not an album highlight. This album closes with "Call The Man" and "Fly." The former was the fifth and final single to released from the album in the UK, and it's not really one of my favourites. A bit too slow and moody. The latter is a short and sweet diamond in which Celine's vocals stay low and in a whispering tone. The song is about Celine's close relative, Karine, who died of Cystic Fibrosis.

OVERALL GRADE: 9/10

Falling Into You is a definite highlight album of the 1990's, and one of the biggest selling! There are only a few female albums of the 1990's that top Falling Into You in terms of sales, and these are Alanis Morissette's "Jagged Little Pill," Whitney Houston's "The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack," Celine's own "Let's Talk About Love" and Shania Twain's mammoth "Come On Over." It's quite an achievement when thinking of what Celine Dion has achieved in the past decade. She is a 150-million-selling, Grammy-award winning international superstar, with the talent, the family, the wealth and the looks to add to this. She is truly one in a million, and Falling Into You is essential for all fans of ballads, and even just for those who are interested in very good music.

The Best from Celine June 17, 2000
10 out of 10 found this review helpful

I bought this CD after hearing"Because you loved me,"by Diane Warren.A wonderfull song from the movie,"Up Close and Personal." (If you ever look at the Billboard charts,just check out how many songs are written by Diane,what a talent) When I First played the CD,and "Its all coming back to be now," came on, I was hooked.What a fantastic song by Meat Loafs producer Jim Steinman.I just hate to hear this song on the radio,they cut it terrible.(In my mind,I think this would have been a great opening number for Barbra Streisand to sing when she made her concert comeback in the early 90's.About leaving her fans,but returning where she left off,and its all coming back to her now.) If anyone thinks Celine can just sing Ballads,wait untill you hear "River Deep,Mountain High." This was Tina Turner's big hit,but Celine brings down the house with her version,and mentions Tina in the song. When you get to the last song, and "Fly" comes on, you will have tears in your eyes.My Mom died shortly before this record came out,and I think about her going to The Light. I have four Celine Dion records,but this one's the best.

Celine Dion ROX April 30, 2001
8 out of 8 found this review helpful

Being a huge Celine Dion fan, I have all of her CDs and FIY is one of my top three faves. Here's a rundown of the songs:

1. It's All Coming Back to me Now - This song is loud, but it's really good. Celine sings it with a powerful voice and this song prooves what a strong voice she has.

2. Because You Loved Me - the love theme to Up Close and Personal. It was overplayed on the radio when the movie came out, but it's still a great song.

3. Falling Into You - has a great beat, awesome song.

4. Make You Happy - Very catchy, you'll be singing along to it in no time.

5. Seduces Me - a very sexy song, great vocals.

6. All By Myself - Personally I think Celine does a better job than Eric Carmen or whoever it was that sung this song before her.

7. Declaration of Love - kind of reminds me of a poppish country song. Very cute and fun.

8. Dreaming of You - I luv this song even though it may sound too bubble gummish.

9. I Love You - reminds me of a 50s song, but very awesome.

10. If That's What It Takes - this is the English version of "Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore" (I like the French version better)

11. I Don't Know - Awesome song! Another one that showcases her strong vocal skills.

12. River Deep, Mountain High - Okay, I'm going to get shredded for this, but I like her version better than Tina Turner's.

13. Call the Man - I didn't like this song at first, but it grew on me.

14. Fly - very sweet spiritual song dedicated to her niece who died.

5 out of 5 stars Positively Celine's Best CD to date May 27, 2000
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I purchased this CD in 1996 when Celine's popularity was slowly rising. Despite the fact that over four years have elapsed, it still happens to be one of my most frequently listened-to CDs.

'Falling Into You' happens to be my all-time favorite song. This is largely attributed to its enchanting rythm and sweet, if somewhat sad, melody.

While the entire CD is very enjoyable, certain tracks are exceptionally good. They are:

1)It's all coming back to me now-This rather long song (over 7 mins long!) is an extremely powerful song which is truly emotion-packed.

2)Because you loved me-The OST of 'Up, Close and Personal' is different from most songs in the sense that it both the chorus and verses are of roughly the same tune. The repetition, suprisingly, effectively enhances this song.

4)Make You Happy-A cheerful and song which shows that Celine's voice is not limited to love ballads.

11)If That's What It Takes-Even though the original french version (Pour Que Tu Maimes Encore) is slightly better, Celine injects just as emotion in this song.

14)Fly-Strangely enough, this version is more, if not, as passionate, than the one found in Deux (Vole).

All in all, I strongly feel this CD outdoes all her others, the phenomenally-successful 'Let's Talk About Love' included.
