This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. The Bee Gees, Luciano Pavarotti, Carole King and Barbra Streisand all in the same place. Is it the inauguration of a new branch of Planet Hollywood? Naw, it's just an album by a little Canadian gal named Celine Dion. True to form, on LET'S TALK ABOUT LOVE the key word is big. Songs, arrangements, production, performance, it's all in Cinemascope and Technicolor with Surround Sound to boot. The grand musical gesture is what Celine Dion has founded her career on, and in that regard she certainly doesn't disappoint on this collection of seamless, radio-friendly pop. Her voice is a miraculous instrument and she exploits its range and tone to their fullest on such tunes as "Immortality" (written by and performed with the aforementioned Brothers Gibb) and "The Reason" (with Carole King).
Celine Dion's ascent from stardom in her native Canada to the upper echelons of international pop divadom is one of the 1990s major success stories. Blessed with a formidable set of pipes and a preference for heart-in-the-throat ballads, the precociously talented Dion initially won over American listeners in 1991, 10 years after her French-language debut, with the title track from Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. From then on, Dion became a music-biz phenomenon, with platinum record sales, sold-out concerts, and across-the-board appeal rivaling her idol, Barbra Streisand.
