* Céline kept the audience waiting until 21h45 when she ascended from a rising black box upon the centrally placed stage (revealing the shape of a heart which functioned as a reminder to "Le Coeur De La Mer" from Titanic) wearing a white angel-like robe with a lot of glitter. The press says there were about 55 000 people present at this concert which lasted until approximately 23h30. Her second outfit was a silver suit very much like the golden one she was wearing during her former concert here.
* Here’s the ordered list of the songs she performed:
-
Let’s Talk About Love
- Dans Un Autre Monde - Je Sais Pas - The Reason - Tell Him - Je Crois Toi - To Love You More (with Taro Hakase) - Treat Her Like A Lady - Terre - J’Irais Où Tu Iras - S’Il Suffisait D’Aimer - On Ne Change Pas - I’m Your Angel - The Power of Love - Ce N’Etait Qu’Un Rêve - D’Amour Ou D’Amitié - Mon Ami M’A Quittée - L’Amour Existe Encore - Ziggy - Love Can Move Mountains - Stayin’ Alive - You Should Be Dancing (danced by Céline) - Twist And Shout - Pour Que Tu M’Aimes Encore - My Heart Will Go On |

* Looking at the above list you’ll certainly have noticed that Céline chose to sing many songs in French, which is of course explained by the fact that Belgium is a bilingual country (well, actually, trilingual to be exact). "French", Céline claimed "is the most beautiful language one can use when it comes down to love songs." It’s also obvious that she opted to do quite a few somewhat calmer songs. Although Céline couldn’t hide her features of sorrow and concern for her husband René from the true fan, she proved herself to be a very plucky woman with an entourage once again emphasizing the ‘genuineness’ of her image.
