Loved Me Back to Life is the eleventh English-language studio album by Canadian singer Celine Dion, released by Sony Music Entertainment on 1 November 2013. It was preceded by the lead single and title track, "Loved Me Back to Life," which was released on 3 September 2013. Loved Me Back to Life is Dion's first English-language studio album since Taking Chances (2007). It was produced by Emanuel Kiriakou, Babyface, Tricky Stewart, Aaron Pearce, Kuk Harrell, Eg White, Play Production, Ne-Yo and Walter Afanasieff among others. The album includes two duets: "Incredible" with Ne-Yo and "Overjoyed" with Stevie Wonder. Loved Me Back to Life garnered mostly positive reviews from music critics and has sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide.[1]

Background

In June 2012, Dion's official website announced that during April and May, the singer began recording songs for her next English and French albums which were to be released in the fall of 2012.[2] The English album was to feature studio versions of previously unreleased songs from Dion's Las Vegas show, Celine, as well as several brand new tracks.[2] In August 2012, celinedion.com confirmed that a cover of Journey's "Open Arms," which opens Dion's Las Vegas show, will be included on the upcoming English-language album.[3] In September 2012, it was also revealed that "Ne me quitte pas" will appear on the English album.[4] Eventually, "Ne me quitte pas" was released on the deluxe edition of Sans attendre and "Open Arms" was included on the Japanese edition of the English album only.[5] Le Journal de Montréal stated that the English album will also contain some songs written by Eg White, who worked with Adele on 19 and 21, some tracks produced by Babyface and a duet with Stevie Wonder on "Overjoyed" which Dion performs during her Las Vegas show.[6] In March 2013, Ne-Yo confirmed information which first appeared on Dion's official website in September 2012, that both singers recorded a duet.[7][8] Ne-Yo said that it was a challenge and it made him question his vocal ability.[8] The duo first worked together on 2007's Taking Chances, with Ne-Yo co-writing and co-producing "I Got Nothin' Left."[8] Another new track written by Diane Warren, "Unfinished Songs" was included in the British-German film Song for Marion.[9][10] However, when the soundtrack for the movie was released in February 2013, it did not feature Dion's song which was saved for her upcoming album.[11] The recording session for "Unfinished Songs" was posted on Dion's website in July 2013.[12]

On 14 September 2012, celinedion.com announced that Dion's new English album titled Water and a Flame will be released in November 2012.[10] However, on 26 September 2012, Sony Music Entertainment decided to postpone the release date of the new English-language album to 2013.[13] In March 2013, René Angélil explained that they decided to delay the release date because the concept of the album has changed.[14] Instead of only half of the disc with original songs, they decided that the majority of the album should be original songs.[14] Angélil stated that initially, the album was supposed to have six covers and six original songs.[15] After further discussion, they decided to put two covers from Dion's Las Vegas show: "At Seventeen" and "Overjoyed."[15] The behind-the-scenes look at Dion recording "At Seventeen," with Babyface producing it, was posted on her website in April 2013.[16] "Overjoyed," with new arrangement by Stevie Wonder, was co-produced by Tricky Stewart.[15] In April 2013, celinedion.com presented a behind-the-scenes look at Dion and producer Eg White recording the song "Water and a Flame."[17] The rest of the album was to contain original songs, including two co-written by Audra Mae, the great-great-niece of Judy Garland.[15] The album was scheduled for release in October 2013.[14] In July 2013, it was announced that it will be titled Loved Me Back to Life.[18] Dion performed the title song live for the very first time during Céline... une seule fois concert in Quebec City on 27 July 2013 and two days later her website announced that the album will be released in November 2013.[19]

Content

On 29 August 2013, Billboard exclusively announced that the new album, Loved Me Back to Life will be issued in North America on 5 November 2013 and that the lead single, "Loved Me Back to Life" will be released on 3 September 2013.[20] Billboard wrote that the album will be Dion's "edgiest record to date -- just not in the ways you might think."[20] For example, "Water and a Flame," originally recorded by Daniel Merriweather and Adele, finds Dion utilizing the lower, grainier register of her voice.[20] Even more unexpected is the lead single, "Loved Me Back to Life," the album's title track penned by Sia Furler and produced by Sham and Motesart.[20] Sung in a minor key, the song is "a different kind of power ballad for Dion, backed by a chorus that features a beat drop that could almost be described as dubstep."[20] The new album also features a pair of tracks written by Ne-Yo, including the duet "Incredible," which sounds "so massive the Olympic Committee should start bookmarking it for the 2014 Winter Games."[20] There's also collaborations with Babyface, Tricky Stewart, and Swedish trio Play Production, the latter of whom produced the beat-driven "Somebody Loves Somebody," penned by Audra Mae (who also wrote songs for Avicii's album True).[20] Loved Me Back to Life also features two covers from Dion's Las Vegas show Celine — Janis Ian's "At Seventeen," and a "reverent" take on "Overjoyed," which doubles as a duet with Stevie Wonder himself.[20] However, the deluxe edition includes two more songs which Dion performs in Las Vegas, "How Do You Keep the Music Playing?" and "Lullaby (Goodnight, My Angel)," plus four collector postcards.[21] Loved Me Back to Life also features "Unfinished Songs" written by Diane Warren for the British-German film Song for Marion.[22] The album was also released on a vinyl LP and includes "Save Your Soul" with rap interlude by Malcolm David Kelley from MKTO.[23] This two disc 180 gram vinyl includes an eight-page booklet featuring exclusive photos and imagery, and also a CD of the full album.[24] "Open Arms," which is included on the Japanese edition only, was produced by Fraser T Smith, who also co-wrote and produced "Set Fire to the Rain" by Adele.[25] The album also contains "Breakaway" written by Audra Mae, Johan Fransson, Tim Larsson, and Tobias Lundgre, and previously recorded by German singer Ivy Quainoo for her 2012 album Ivy.[26] On 29 October 2013, Billboard published another article stating that "Always Be Your Girl" was the first original song found for the album.[27] It was written by Dana Parish and Andrew Hollander after watching Dion's 2011 documentary, 3 Boys and a New Show on OWN.[27] Dion claims to hold a special connection to the song as she thinks of her sons when she hears the lyrics.[27]

On 28 October 2013, she performed "Somebody Loves Somebody" and "Water and a Flame" on The Today Show and "Loved Me Back to Life" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.[54][55] She performed "Loved Me Back to Life" on The View on 30 October 2013.[56] Additionally, Dion gave an intimate club performance at the Edison Ballroom in New York City on 29 October 2013 which was broadcast on 1 November 2013 on QVC.[57] She performed her old hits and few new songs, including "Loved Me Back to Life," "Water and a Flame" and "At Seventeen," and the concert received great reviews.[58] On 6 November 2013, Dion performed "Somebody Loves Somebody" on The Dr. Oz Show.[59] In Canada, she sang "Loved Me Back to Life" and "Incredible" with Ne-Yo on Le Banquier on 3 November 2013.[60]

Loved Me Back to Life garnered positive reviews from music critics. According to the music review aggregator Metacritic, it has received a score of 65/100, indicating generally favorable reviews.[76] AllMusic gave the album three and a half (out of five) stars, and called it "a record that flirts with new ideas but never hooks up. Yet, that flirtation counts for something: it means the album is livelier, less self-conscious, less beholden to the expected, and quick-footed enough to not seem mired in show biz glitz." The review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that "there's nothing here that screams big hit –- but it's something better: the work of a diva who is comfortable in her own skin."[77] In a positive review, The New York Times critic Jon Caramanica first noted Dion's usual musical inclinations towards melodrama and bombast, noting that "She is the iceberg, destroying all Titanics." However, he then commended Dion's attempt to evolve, commenting "that she'd bother to innovate at all on the strong Loved Me Back to Life, her first English-language album in six years, is worthy in and of itself. Compared with her usual motor-powered balladry, this album is positively peppy. You can just register the faint outline of contemporary R&B and even hip-hop, thanks to a pair of productions by Tricky Stewart. On the vinyl version of the track "Save Your Soul," there's a rap interlude by Malcolm David Kelley, late of Lost and now of the pop-hip-hop duo MKTO. There's also an implicit embrace of current dance-pop on the title track, which was written in part by Sia, the Australian singer and songwriter whose "Titanium" (made with the producer David Guetta) was one of last year's most vocally ambitious dance-diva hits." Caramanica also complimented Dion's improved delivery: "On this album she's singing with more rhythm, if not more clarity, than usual."[81] Unusually favorable review came from Rolling Stone (by editor Dave Dimartino from Yahoo! Music): "new Celine album is a damned fine, polished thing, exactly what you'd want to release when you're renowned as the highest-grossing touring artist in the world from 2000 to 2010, and a solid listen through and through!."[90]

Elysa Gardner of USA Today gave the album three out of four stars, acknowledging Dion's use of "softer, grittier vocals and more nuanced drama than previous power ballads." Gardner also noted: "A subtler, more subdued Celine Dion may be interesting in theory, but bright shades still suit this diva best."[82] The Oakland Press critic Gary Graff awarded the album three out of four stars, stating that the disc "finds Dion creatively frisky and exploring new sonic environments for the muscular voice that helped sink the Titanic, at least on film — with help from producers such as Hasham Hussain, Emanuel Kiriakou and the Swedish team Play Production. The more contemporary approach is evident from the get-go on the Sia Fuller co-written title track, with its stuttering vocal hook and dubstep-style beats, which wouldn't sound out of place on, say, a Rihanna album." Graff concluded: "It's not a wholesale reinvention, but Loved Me Back to Life will make fans look at Dion a little differently, and might even bring some new folks in from the sidelines."[84]

Slant Magazine gave Loved Me Back to Life a more mixed review. Despite allowing the overall album a seemingly positive score of three out of five, critic Eric Henderson found the shift to more contemporary material unconvincing, noting that "If Chaka Khan was every woman, Dion is and ever shall be every awkward soccer mom. Only now, she's taken her CD-R of Celtic pop tunes out of the SUV stereo and is bumping a mix of midtempo neo-power ballads from the likes of Kesha and Katy Perry instead. Typical of mothers struggling to fit in with the next generation, the chief intention of Loved Me Back to Life is to pass for contemporary." On a positive note, Henderson opined that the album works when Dion sticks to her established signature style: "Dion's cover of Janis Ian's rueful "At Seventeen" comes off less like a lament for childhood dreams that didn't come to pass and more like a lilting word of advice from someone old enough to know better, which is precisely the zone where the album excels: when Dion drops the act and embraces her manic, Hallmark card-brandishing guru of schmaltz."[79] Steve Morse of The Boston Globe dismissed the album as "littered with syrupy, easy-listening, trite-lyric ballads that undersell her talent." Similar to Slant Magazine critic Eric Henderson's review, Morse maintained that Dion is at her best when she reverts to her old formula, stating: "She experiments at times with a more gravelly voice, suggesting a bid for more street appeal, but the overall effect is stiff and mechanical, minus the warmth for which she is known."[80] RenownedForSound.com praised the album, giving the collection a four star review saying "It goes to show that Celine Dion has released something delightful for old and new fans, with a mixture of songs that have both a Pop/RnB focus as well as encompassing her adult contemporary-pop roots."[91]

Awards

Thanks to Loved Me Back to Life, Dion was nominated for four Juno Awards of 2014: Artist of the Year, Fan Choice Award, Album of the Year and Adult Contemporary Album of the Year.[128] Dion was also nominated for six 2014 World Music Awards, including World's Best Female Artist, World's Best Album (Loved Me Back to Life) and World's Best Song ("Incredible").[129] She was nominated for two more Félix Awards in 2014 as well: Anglophone Album of the Year (Loved Me Back to Life) and Artist of the Year Achieving the Most Success Outside Quebec, but lost to Arcade Fire in both categories.[130][131]

Controversy

Loved Me Back to Life was originally to be titled Water and a Flame, named after another track on the album, "Water and a Flame", written by Australian singer-songwriter Daniel Merriweather along with British musician Eg White, and first performed by Merriweather and Adele. In an April 2013 interview on The Katie Couric Show to promote the album, Dion played a recording of her cover of "Water and a Flame." Right before hearing the song, Katie Couric asked Dion and her husband/manager, René Angélil, in reference to the then title of the album: "where did 'Water and a Flame' come from?" Angélil responded, "It's, you know, the opposites.", and Dion replied, "It's the name of the song."[132] Musician Samantha Ronson, who is a friend of Merriweather's, wrote a blog post that included the video of the interview and the text "Dear Celine Dion, when you cover someone else's song- you might want to give them credit."[133] In June 2013, Merriweather linked to Ronson's post from his Facebook page and harshly criticized Dion, writing, "This song has every ounce of my heartache and pain in it and she pretends as if she wrote it herself."[134] Two days later, Dion's management responded on her website, saying that, while Dion often does not mention the writers of her songs, "she has been very vocal about the fact that she does not write her own songs," that she did not intend any harm by the omission, and that all of the writers and producers were always credited on the liner notes.[135] On 25 July 2013, her website confirmed that the album was re-titled to Loved Me Back to Life.[18]
