 Very cool...but just misses the "ultimate" mark with a few omissions of awesome songs not found on this collection November 19, 2008

Celine Dion is a music artist that has had music that has been part of my life. May it be a song that would be a song dedicated at a certain time of my relationship or a friend's relationship to a song that just touched you (or annoyed you).
Celine Dion was like "Boyz II Men" in terms of songs that people listened to if they were in love or just broken up with someone. So, I'm sure there are a large number of people who will definitely have a strong sense of nostalgia when they here a lot of the songs featured on this album.
But when I first hear Celine Dion's voice (this was a time before was singing in English), I was in love with her voice and to see her grow in popularity in the 1990's and have hit after hit, I was definitely proud of her accomplishments.
So, here we are with a new compilation album featuring many of her hit songs throughout the years and for those who have not owned a Celine Dion album, then you can definitely have the majority of her hits through the album "My Love: Essential Collection" which features a total of 17 tracks and for those who do own a lot of her music, they can get the "My Love: Ultimate Essential Collection" which features unreleased songs.
From the classic hits such as "Where Does My Heart Beat Now", "Beauty and the Beast", "If You Ask Me To", "Because You Loved Me", "The Power of My Love", "My Heart Will Go On", "To Love You More" and many other countless hits. But also some surprises such as the live version of "Taking Chances" and "My Love" and many more other songs that were unreleased and not familiar with but I was a bit surprised that there were songs such as "misled" and "Nothing Broken But My Heart" but also my favorite songs "Colour of My Love" and "When I Fall In Love". So, for me... and that is for me, I can't call this an ultimate essential collection but it is a pretty cool compilation album nonetheless.
I will have to say that it's not exactly an "Ultimate Essential Collection" for me because there are two Celine Dion songs that are my favorites not featured on this album and that is "Colour of my Love" and the "Sleepless in Seattle" ballad "When I Fall in Love" featuring Celine and Clive Griffin. Without these two incredible songs included, it's hard to call this compilation an "Ultimate Essential Collection".
But perhaps that is me being a bit picky on the tracklist because there are a lot of awesome tracks on this compilation but missing a few that would be truly an ultimate essential collection of Celine Dion's hits.
But nevertheless, there are many songs that I are simply nostalgic. I'm probably one of the few who was not sicken by the overplaying of the "Titanic" ballad "Where My Heart Goes On".
Also, with a song "To Love You More" which opened me up to the music of Kryzler and Company and had me searching for the Japanese soundtrack of "Koibito yo" for the different versions of this cool song.
And who can not listen to "Because You Loved Me" and not think of that person you broke up with. There are just so many of those nostalgic songs from the past that I'm glad to see included on this compilation.
So, if you have not owned a Celine Dion album but are looking to have one to own, then definitely check out "My Love: Essential Collection" or "My Love: Ultimate Essential Collection".
 Awesome choice for those that just want greatest hits December 31, 2008

I own every Celine CD and I adore just about every song on them. There are wonderful songs that were never released as singles but I can play them over and over again because I have all the CDs. My Love- is a great way to own just about every single Celine has ever come out with, without needing to by all her other CDs. Just about every song on it is familiar and there are even a couple of pleasant surprises.
All the major songs are on here and some of her lesser ones (that I adore as well) like, 'I drove all night', 'My Love', River Deep, Mountain High, and The Prayer duet. Just all wonderful to listen to. The only tiny gripe I have is with the song, 'Love Can Move Mountains'. For some reason i detest that song, but she chooses to sing it at her concerts and to include it on here. I NEVER listen to that one. But really, that's about it. Every other song is so worth it and I'm glad she finally chose to come out with a true greatest hits CD.
Yes, there are a few songs I wish were on here, but you can't make everyone happy. But this comes pretty close!
Celine Dion, My KInd Of Artist April 15, 2009

I have loved her music for years. Having seen her live in concert, on dvd with her vegas show, and on cd, I have come to appreciate the talent, beauty, and grace that is Celine Dion. She comes from a large family, has a loving husband and son, and stays out of the tabloids. She's an artist I can respect, and whos songs I can fell the passion and enjoyment she puts into her work and gets out of it.
I admire her ability, and here on these two discs is compiled her entire English language history of her hit songs. Both discs have songs to enjoy, both new and old, including "River Deep, Mountain High", which I was fortunate enough to see live in Houston this past January.
As soon as I saw this collection, I knew I had to own it.
Cant stop listening ... January 2, 2009

In the last ten years I have heard many songs of Celine Dion in films, on soundtracks, my favorite radio station etc., yet I never came around to buy a CD from her.
I bought this double CD to listen to her best songs and I just cant stop listening to it. This is a double CD where you can enjoy EVERY single song thats on it !!
First is obviously her clear and beautiful voice, but its also that her (love) songs come across believable. It doesnt sound like somebody that is just reading the text. Its in how she pronounces the words that make it so enjoyable to listen to.
I can not rave enough for this CD.
It's an absolute terrific CD and highly recommended !!

An improvement over "All The Way", this collection of Celine's hits gets it right for the most part. There are of course, some notable exceptions ("Nothing Broken But My Heart" [A bigger hit than a lot of what's on this set!], "Misled", "If There Was Any Other Way" and most inexplicable of all, "When I Fall In Love." Really? Not essential enough for ya, Celine?) However, the inclusion of "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" is a big plus, as is "Tell Him", her duet with Barbra Streisand.
As for "rarities" we get "The Power Of The Dream" from the '96 Olympics, "You Make Me Feel (A Natural Woman)" from the international version of "Falling Into You" and the "Tapestry Revisited" album, as well as a song from one of her French language albums and two songs from tribute albums to Luther Vandross and Ennio Morricone. The two "new" songs consist of a live version of "My Love" from the Taking Chances album (which doesn't sound much different from the album version) and a forgettable song entitled "There Comes A Time).
So, in total, this is a good collection that could have been great, but until the next retrospective comes along, and you know it will, this will do just fine.
Note: "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" is NOT the single version, but the full seven-and-a-half minute album version. The studio version of "My Love" is included as a hidden track at the end of disc two.
