I am a big Celine Dion fan. My mom likes to say that when I was six years old, I would belt out the Power of Love because my uncle repeatedly played that song. When I was in Grade 7, Celine released Falling Into You. I managed to get my hands on the cassette in Grade 8, and it was played until the tape could no longer be winded in. While my 13-year-old self may not have fully grasped the lyrics of It’s All Coming Back to Me Now, the narrative woven through the song resonated deeply with my inherent love for melodrama. In my view, it’s one of the best songs of our time, and to (reportedly) quote Andrew Lloyd Webber, it is “the greatest love song ever written.”
