Celine Dion has embarked on her Courage World Tour.
Courage is the title of her new album, and if you can’t make it to one of her concerts to preview it, she’s made it possible for you to listen to some of the tracks for free on YouTube.
According to Rolling Stone, Dion has unveiled three new songs: ‘Courage’, ‘Lying Down’ and ‘Imperfections’.
The full album will be released on November 15 via Sony Music Entertainment Canada/Columbia.
Let’s listen:
‘Courage’:
Written by Stephan Moccio, Erik Alcock and Liz Rodrigues, the anthemic “Courage” is about getting yourself back together after a heartbreaking loss. The singer lets her sadness loose: “Courage don’t you fail me now/ I need you to keep away the doubts/ I’m staring in the face of something new/ You’re all I’ve got to hold on to.”
‘Imperfections’:
Written by Ari Leff, Michael Pollack, Nicholas Perloff-Giles and DallasK (who also produced the song), emotional track “Imperfections” discusses self-criticism as Dion sings, “I got my own imperfections/ I got my own set of scars to hide / I got my own imperfections/ I can’t hold your heart when I’m fixing mine.”
‘Lying Down’:
Meanwhile, the David Guetta, Giorgio Tuinfort and Sia-penned “Lying Down” addresses distancing oneself from toxic relationships. The heart-felt ballad, backed by piano and strings, sees Dion crooning about getting back on your feet after a negative relationship. “You can’t take this from me,” she howls. “Can’t you see I won’t take this lying down?”
These follow on from ‘Flying On My Own’, which she revealed on the last night of her 16-year Las Vegas residency in June.
I’ll leave you with that performance:
