[edit] Album information

The album was recorded at the Place des Arts in Montreal, on May 31, 1985. Dion performed 36 concerts in Quebec cities during her C'est pour toi tournée. She sang also three English songs: Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes' "Up Where We Belong," Judy Garland's "Over the Rainbow" and Irene Cara's "What a Feeling."[1]

The Canadian 1985 TV special included several different songs than were on the album, such as "Avec toi," "Amoureuse," "C'est pour toi," and "Mamy Blue."

There were no singles issued to promote this album, which also included "Carmen "L'amour est enfant de bohême"" and hommages to Félix Leclerc and Michel Legrand.

During her Falling into You Tour in 1996-1997, Dion recalls how she used to sing "What a Feeling" when she was a little girl. She didn't know English that well at the moment and had to learn some of the lyrics phonetically. We can find that speech on her Live in Memphis home video.

In 2003, Dion recorded "Quand on s'aime" as a duet with René Simard, which appeared on his album Hier...encore.
