The audience witnessed the triumph of the love of over death by Dion as she imbued the songs she sung with a new meaning. She also showed courage when she tackled new material close to the situation she is dealing with right now.

Celine Dion moved forward and sang “With One More Look at You/Watch Closely Now” as the curtains parted. It was the same song Barbra Streisand sang on “A Star Is Born.” A standing ovation and cheers met this tearful and emotional performance of Dion before she started a series of songs dealing with lost love. The songs included “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now?,” “Where Does My Heart Beat Now” and “Because You Loved Me.”
After this sequence of emotionally-charged songs, the singer sang a number of upbeat songs demonstrating her magnificent voice and apparent cheerful spirit.
The show soon become emotional as the singer sang “All by Myself.” At one point of the performance after she sang “Don’t want to be by myself anymore,” Dion covered her face with her hands before she continued to sing.
When she continued, she sang “The Show Must Go On” of Queen and a sweet version of “My Heart Will Go On,” showing the triumph of love over death. The combination of the two songs was not a coincidence since Celine Dion revealed that the show and her heart must go on.
