Celine Dion Fade Away Exclusive Music Video

Dion's music has been influenced by genres ranging from rock and R&B to gospel and classical. While her releases have often received mixed critical reception, she is renowned for her technically skilled and powerful vocals. Dion is the best selling Canadian artist of all time; and her album, D'eux is the best selling French-language album of all time. In 2004, after surpassing 175 million in album sales worldwide, she was presented with the Chopard Diamond Award at the World Music Awards for becoming the best selling female artist of all time. In April 2007 Sony BMG announced that Celine Dion had sold over 200 million albums worldwide.
The youngest of fourteen children born to Adhémar Dion and Thérèse Tanguay, both of French Canadian descent, Céline Dion was raised a Roman Catholic in a poverty-stricken, but, by her own account, happy home in Charlemagne, Quebec, Canada. Music had always been a part of the family (Dion was named after the song "Céline", recorded by French singer Hugues Aufray two years before her birth), as she grew up singing with her siblings in her parents' small piano bar called 'Le Vieux Baril.' From an early age Dion had dreamed of being a performer. In a 1994 interview with People magazine, she recalled, "I missed my family and my home, but I don't regret having lost my adolescence. I had one dream: I wanted to be a singer."

At age twelve, Dion collaborated with her mother and her brother Jacques to compose her first song, "Ce n'était qu'un rêve" ("It Was Only a Dream"). Her brother Michel Dondalinger Dion sent the recording to music manager René Angélil, whose name he discovered on the back of a Ginette Reno album. Angélil was moved to tears by Dion's voice, and decided to make her a star. He mortgaged his home to fund her first record, La voix du bon Dieu (a play on words "The Voice of God/The Way of God", 1981), which became a local number-one record and made Dion an instant star in Quebec. Her popularity spread to other parts of the world when she competed in the 1982 Yamaha World Popular Song Festival in Tokyo, Japan, and won the musician's award for "Top Performer" as well as the gold medal for "Best Song" with "Tellement j'ai d'amour pour toi" ("I Have So Much Love for You").

Fade Away Lyrics - Celine Dion

i learned from the past
not everything lasts
i understand that now
everything changed
when you walked away
but i'll survive somehow
though i have regrets
i'll learn to forget
and just keep moving on
cause when love is gone
you have to be strong
once touched by pain
you're not the same
but time can heal
your heart again
so let the clouds
that bring you down
just fade away
away

so i try to smile
but after a while
the memories come back
but i won't give in
cause i know that then
my heart will fade to black

and this time i learned
that love can burn
there's no right or wrong
i've got to be strong

once touched by pain
you're not the same
but time can heal
your heart again
so let the clouds
that bring you down
just fade away
away

i know that one day i'll find that feeling again
but until i do i'll do fine by myself

once touched by pain
you're not the same
but time can heal
your heart again
so let the clouds
that bring you down
you know that

once touched by pain
you're not the same
but time can heal
your heart again
so let the clouds
that bring you down
so let the clouds
that bring you down
just fade away
away
