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.
I like brunettes and I like blond girls I like the smoke of dirty night clubs I like the sweet thigs that are free and the others you must pay for
now every night that I feel lonely I pick up my phone and call some girl and if there is no one to please me I take my car and get another
I like to enjoy the sweet things of life and when I feel lonely and sad and blue I just know what I gotta do 'cause I got money, pretty girls and I look good
but there is no thing I can't get I just can't get happiness I've know a lot of pretty girls but none of them is in my home alright
now every night that I feel lonely I pick up my phone and call some girl and if there is no one to please me I take my car and get another
now every night that I feel lonely I pick up my phone and call some girl and if there is no one to please me I take my car and get another alright
but there is no thing I can't get I just can't get happiness I've know a lot of pretty girls but none of them is in my home alright
