## Early French recordings and the first English albums

Dion recorded in French before entering the Anglophone market. [René Angélil](https://www.edgepedia.org/rene-angelil), her manager, mortgaged his house at one point to finance her first album.<sup>[9](https://www.encyclopedia.com/people/literature-and-arts/music-popular-and-jazz-biographies/celine-dion)</sup> Her early catalog includes the Christmas release *Chants et contes de Noël*, whose song "Un enfant" appeared on the Editions Claude Pascal label.<sup>[1](https://celine.fandom.com/wiki/Discography)</sup>

**Unison (1990).** *Unison* is Dion's first album recorded in English and the first produced in collaboration with the Quebec, Canadian, and American divisions of CBS, which assembled a team of producers, writers, and composers for the project.<sup>[3](https://www.celinedion.com/discography/unison-video/)</sup> It laid the foundation for her rise to international stardom.<sup>[10](https://www.celinedion.com/news/celine-dion-celebrates-35th-anniversary-of-debut-english-album-unison/)</sup> The single "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" from the album charted in the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom in late 1990 and early 1991.<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup>

In the autumn of 1991 she released *Dion chante Plamondon*, an album of songs by the Quebec lyricist Luc Plamondon that was certified gold on its day of release.<sup>[12](https://www.celinedion.com/fr/a-propos/biographie/)</sup>

## The 1990s English breakthrough

**Celine Dion (1992).** Her second English-language album, simply titled *Celine Dion*, drew songs from notable songwriters including [Diane Warren](https://www.edgepedia.org/diane-warren) and Prince, who wrote the ballad "With This Tear" especially for her.<sup>[13](https://www.celinedion.com/discography/celine-dion/)</sup> It became her first gold record in the United States and sold more than 12 million copies internationally.<sup>[6](https://www.biography.com/musicians/celine-dion)</sup> The album's singles included "Beauty and the Beast," a duet with [Peabo Bryson](https://www.edgepedia.org/peabo-bryson) that reached the top 10 in both Germany and the United Kingdom.<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup>

*The Colour of My Love* (1993) was another major breakthrough, and Dion publicly declared her feelings for her manager in the album's dedication, calling him "the color of her love."<sup>[14](https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED439031.pdf)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[15](https://etheses.iainponorogo.ac.id/952/1/Abstrak%2C%20BAB%20I-V.pdf)</sup> Its single "The Power of Love" reached number 1 in the United States in late 1993, and "Think Twice" topped the United Kingdom chart for seven weeks in late 1994 and early 1995.<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup>

**Falling into You and Let's Talk About Love.** *Falling into You* (1996) produced "Because You Loved Me," a number 1 single in the United States for six weeks, and "It's All Coming Back to Me Now."<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup> *Let's Talk About Love* (1997) carried "My Heart Will Go On," the theme from [James Cameron](https://www.edgepedia.org/james-cameron)'s film *Titanic*, which Dion also recorded for the film's soundtrack. The *Titanic* soundtrack became the best-selling soundtrack in history at 30 million copies, a figure equaled by *Let's Talk About Love* itself.<sup>[5](https://www.celinedion.com/about/biography/)</sup> Her rendition of "My Heart Will Go On" won the [Academy Award for Best Original Song](https://www.edgepedia.org/academy-award-for-best-original-song).<sup>[4](https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2026/08/29/how-celine-dion-became-the-queen-of-vegas-and-is-about-to-set-paris-alight_6756961_117.html)</sup> By the start of the 2000s she had sold more than 100 million albums and audiences had made her the best-selling recording artist in the world.<sup>[4](https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2026/08/29/how-celine-dion-became-the-queen-of-vegas-and-is-about-to-set-paris-alight_6756961_117.html)</sup>

## The French-language catalog and the Goldman partnership

Dion's French recordings run parallel to her English career, and the songwriter Jean-Jacques Goldman shaped much of it. In 1995 the two created *D'eux*, described on her official biography as one of the great masterpieces of francophone music; the album was titled *The French Album* in some territories, and it remains the best-selling French-language album of all time with more than 10 million copies sold.<sup>[5](https://www.celinedion.com/about/biography/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[16](https://worldradiohistory.com/UK/Music-and-Media/90s/1996/MM-1996-03-16a.pdf)</sup> The album's lead single "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" reached number 7 in the United Kingdom in 1995.<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup>

The Goldman collaboration continued across three further albums: *S'il suffisait d'aimer* (1998), *1 fille et 4 types* (2003), and *Encore un soir* (2016).<sup>[17](https://www.celineparis2027.com/en/articles/album-deux-goldman-celine-dion/)</sup> *Encore un soir*, released by [Sony Music](https://www.edgepedia.org/sony-music) in August 2016, was her first French album in four years.<sup>[12](https://www.celinedion.com/fr/a-propos/biographie/)</sup> Other French albums in the catalog include *Sans attendre* (2012), created with francophone artists including Jacques Veneruso, Luc Plamondon, Maxime Le Forestier, and Stanislas.<sup>[18](https://ukboutique.celinedion.com/products/sans-attendre-pearly-white-vinyl-2lp)</sup>

## Holiday, live, and compilation releases

The catalog extends well beyond studio albums. Holiday albums include *The Christmas Album* (1993) and *These Are Special Times* (1998).<sup>[9](https://www.encyclopedia.com/people/literature-and-arts/music-popular-and-jazz-biographies/celine-dion)</sup> Her live albums on major streaming catalogs include *Live à Paris* (1996), recorded at the Zénith in October 1995 before more than 6,000 spectators at the peak of *D'eux* success; *Au cœur du stade* (1999); *A New Day... Live in Las Vegas* (2004); *Taking Chances World Tour – The Concert (Live in Boston)* (2010); and *Céline... une seule fois (Live 2013)* (2014).<sup>[19](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/c%C3%A9line-dion/63729)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.sonymusic.fr/news/vivez-lautomne-avec-celine-dion/)</sup> Her video releases include the DVD *Celine Dion Live in Las Vegas*, the only music DVD certified triple platinum in Canada.<sup>[12](https://www.celinedion.com/fr/a-propos/biographie/)</sup> Compilation and greatest-hits sets include *[All the Way... A Decade of Song](https://www.edgepedia.org/all-the-way-a-decade-of-song)*, *My Love: Essential Collection* (2008), *On ne change pas* (2005), and *The Best of Celine Dion* (2014).<sup>[19](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/c%C3%A9line-dion/63729)</sup>

## Later studio albums

The 2000s and 2010s studio output includes *[A New Day Has Come](https://www.edgepedia.org/a-new-day-has-come)* (2002), whose singles "A New Day Has Come" and "I'm Alive" charted in Germany and the United Kingdom; *One Heart* (2003); *Taking Chances* (2007), whose title track reached the top 40 in Germany and the United Kingdom; *Sans attendre* (2012); and *Loved Me Back to Life* (2013).<sup>[11](https://chart-history.net/cc/cc-celine-dion.pdf)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[19](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/c%C3%A9line-dion/63729)</sup> *[Courage](https://www.edgepedia.org/courage-celine-dion-album)* (2019), her chart-topping English album, appeared in a deluxe edition and was followed by the soundtrack album *Love Again* (2023) and *I Am: Celine Dion (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)* (2024).<sup>[19](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/c%C3%A9line-dion/63729)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[7](https://www.sonymusic.ca/press_release/celine-dion-illumine-paris-celine-dion-lights-up-paris)</sup>

## Recent releases and reissue campaign

In April 2026 Dion released "[Dansons](https://www.edgepedia.org/dansons)," her first original song in several years, written by Jean-Jacques Goldman and reuniting the two a decade after *Encore un soir*; she had received the song in 2020 but could only record it in 2025.<sup>[20](https://www.celinedion.com/news/celine-dion-releases-new-song-dansons/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[21](https://www.sonymusic.fr/news/dansons-le-nouveau-single-de-celine-dion/)</sup> A second new French single, "Bonjour, Pardon, Merci," followed in July 2026, and both songs appear on her current discography page alongside the live single "Hymne à l'amour (Live aux Jeux Olympiques de Paris 2024)," recorded at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics.<sup>[22](https://www.celinedion.com/discography/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://apnews.com/article/97b3dae2af6c591f7201d952e2d73d4a)</sup> A forthcoming French-language album, recorded in Las Vegas, is part of the run-up to her 16-show residency at the Plenitude Arena in Paris.<sup>[4](https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2026/08/29/how-celine-dion-became-the-queen-of-vegas-and-is-about-to-set-paris-alight_6756961_117.html)</sup>
