Céline Marie Claudette Dion, CC OQ, (French pronunciation: [selin djɔ̃] ( listen); born March 30, 1968), is a Canadian singer. Born to a large family from Charlemagne, Quebec, Dion emerged as a teen star in the French-speaking world after her manager and future husband René Angélil mortgaged his home to finance her first record. In 1990, she released the English-language album Unison, establishing herself as a viable pop artist in North America and other English-speaking areas of the world.
Dion had first gained international recognition in the 1980s by winning both the 1982 Yamaha World Popular Song Festival and the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest. Following a series of French albums in the early 1980s, she signed on to CBS Records Canada in 1986. During the 1990s, with the help of Angélil, she achieved worldwide fame after signing with Epic Records and releasing several English albums along with additional French albums, becoming one of the most successful artists in pop music history. However, in 1999 at the height of her success, Dion announced a hiatus from entertainment in order to start a family and spend time with her husband, who had been diagnosed with cancer. She returned to the top of pop music in 2002 and signed a three-year (later extended to almost five years) contract to perform nightly in a five-star theatrical show at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Paradise, Nevada.

Turn on your t.v. now my son
in north hollywood I see the guns are blazing
well you can't believe it
but you'd best believe it boy
this is your u.s.a. today
turn up the radio now my son
a car got jacked in compton, news at 11
just another day in the modern world
but I still love this land, o.k.?
well you can't believe it
but you'd best believe it boy
this is your u.s.a. today
take a look and you might see too much reality
you'll cut your mind along the way
on the pieces of a broken of a broken world today
see the pretty news announcer, son?
she looks so good with stories of decay and destruction
smiling like it was all a video game
and every anchor looks the same
well you can't believe it
but you'd best believe it
this is your u.s.a. today
look too hard then you will see too much reality
you'll cut your mind along the way
on the pieces of a broken world today
see the wars so far from here
brought into my room so crystal clear
words and images like these have got me on my knees
turn up your t.v. now my son
cause there's nowhere left to hide, nowhere left to run
well you can't believe it
but you'd best believe it
I heard you've been wondering
How I'm getting along
I guess you think I can't make it with you gone
But I don't want you to worry
Don't you lose any sleep
But a man called long-distance this morning
Said they're thinking about putting me
On the cover of the USA Today
The story of heart-breaking pain
Picture of the loneliest man they claim in the USA Today
I don't sleep in the nighttime
Darkness reminds me of you
I lost eight pounds since last Tuesday
But I could stand to lose a few
I don't believe I'm too bad
People say I look fine
The man from the paper seems happy
Says I'm bigger than the latest crime
On the cover of the USA Today
The story of heart-breaking pain
Picture of the loneliest man they claim in the USA Today
So if you're concerned in trouble
Then you're hurting me
Don't you work out this little thing called losing you
Has made a big man out of me
I'm on the cover of the USA Today
The story of heart-breaking pain
