* HarsherInHindsight: Many of her sadder songs have become this given that her husband has died.
** "My Heart Will Go On", performed as an encore on her 2019-20 ''Courage'' world tour, doubled as a tribute to Rene, with Céline blowing a kiss skyward after finishing the song.
** "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" is about a woman being haunted by the death of the man she loved. Listening to it now, it seems uncomfortably like a GriefSong about Rene's death.
** There's even one time when she sang ''All By Myself'' and nearly broke down in tears and almost couldn't finish the song.
** A similar case happened with her French song ''Et Je T'aime Encore'' ("And I still love you"), which contains lyrics such as ''Mais ou es-tu? Si loin sans même une adresse'' (But where are you? So far away without even an address).
** "Immortality" is now more heartbreaking, with her husband, her brother Daniel, and two-thirds of Music/TheBeeGees (who wrote the song and also sung the backing vocals) no longer with us.

* HilariousInHindsight: One year before Céline gave birth to her first son, a magazine published an erroneous story that said she was pregnant with twins, which displeased her enough to launch a lawsuit. Then she eventually had her first son, ultimately debunking the false story. Fast forward a decade, she ended up with twin sons for real.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: "(If There Was) Any Other Way," a ''Unison'' single, bears more than a passing resemblance to "Don't Rush Me" by Music/TaylorDayne as well as "Cruising for Bruising" by Polish vocalist Basia (which was on the Canadian charts at the same time as "Any Other Way"). Add to that the fact that Dion sounded a lot like Ms. Dayne vocally on her early English albums (in fact, she and Dayne both released versions of the song "Send Me a Lover" as singles).

** And she's done some killer dance tunes, even on her English albums which tend to be more adult contemporary-oriented than her French albums. Some examples: "Unison", "Love Can Move Mountains", "Misled", her cover of "I Drove All Night".



** Jennifer Rush co-wrote and originally performed "The Power of Love" almost a decade before Dion covered it.

** Jennifer Rush co-wrote and originally performed "The Power of Love" almost a decade before Dion covered it. It charted for other artists before Dion (including another big-voiced brunette, Laura Branigan), but hers was far and away the most successful in North America.


Added DiffLines:

** "If You Asked Me To" was first a minor hit in 1989 for Music/PattiLabelle.
** Dion's cover of Music/RoyOrbison's "I Drove All Night" is arguably better known than that by Music/CyndiLauper, although Lauper's version was a much bigger chart hit.

Added DiffLines:

** Given Music/RKelly's legal troubles over the past few years, Céline's duet with him, "I'm Your Angel," comes across as somewhat creepy now. Understandably, she's since removed it from sale on [=iTunes=].

Another minor edit.


** English: ''Besides'' "[[Film/Titanic1997 My Heart Will Go On]]"? Good choices would be "Where Does My Heart Beat Now", "Because You Loved Me", "It's All Coming Back to Now", "That's the Way It Is", or even "A New Day Has Come" (hey, the first three words of this song's title was the name of her Caesars Palace residency).
