TELL HIM ~ BY BARBRA STREISAND AND CELINE DION

"Tell Him" is a duet between Barbra Streisand and Céline Dion. It was released on November 3, 1997 as the first single from Dion's Let's Talk About Love and Streisand's Higher Ground albums. On March 24, 1997 Céline Dion became the first artist ever to perform twice on the same Academy Awards night. In addition to singing "Because You Loved Me," she also sang "I Finally Found Someone" from the movie The Mirror Has Two Faces, recorded by Barbra Streisand and Bryan Adams. Streisand preferred not to perform that night and Natalie Cole had been scheduled to sing her song instead. But Cole pulled out and two days before the Oscar night, Céline Dion was asked if she could do it. Although nervous, she accepted and managed to perform on the night.

A few days later, Streisand sent Dion flowers and a note: "I watched the tape afterwards, you sang my song beautifully and I regret I wasn't in the room to hear you, next time let's make one together. I really wish your song would have won, you are a wonderful singer." That note wasn't left without an answer and René Angélil called up David Foster to write a song for them, and the result was "Tell Him."On October 7, 1997 "Tell Him" had its first runs on the United States radio waves. This duet was rejected however by non-adult contemporary radio stations. Even if the song was a large adult contemporary hit, Sony Music Entertainment cancelled the U.S. single release, because it didn't have a broad enough support to put the song on top of the charts. However, "Tell Him" was a huge hit outside the U.S.

"Tell Him" peaked at number 2 in the Netherlands and Ireland, number 3 in Belgium, Europe, France and the United Kingdom, number 4 in Italy and Switzerland, and was a top 10 hit in many other countries. The single has sold very well around the world, receiving platinum awards in the Netherlands (75,000), Belgium (50,000), and gold in the United Kingdom (400,000), France (400,000), Australia (35,000), Switzerland (25,000) and Norway (10,000). "Tell Him" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals in 1998.

"Tell Him" was later included on both artists' compilations: Dion's The Collector's Series, Volume One and Streisand's The Essential Barbra Streisand. In 2008, it became also a part of Dion's greatest hits My Love: Essential Collection.

Fixing Garage Doors

Fixing garage doors could probably one of the most stressing and demanding jobs to do. Well, first, we all know how heavy the garage doors are and they're kinda hard if you fix it alone.
Also, the spare parts of garage doors, unlike what typical doors have, are quite hard to find as well. There are also equipments made specifically for Garage doors.
Well, for me, instead of exerting all your efforts looking for those "hard to find" spares and spending your savings to those expensive equipments and tools, much better if you just hire an expert technician and let him do the rest of the job.
This will not just save your time but also save your money as well. And if you were lucky, you can find or hire someone from a reputable company like the "All About Doors and Tigard Door Co., a well known company who provides high quality Garage doors Portland Services in Oregon. You're very lucky indeed because most likely, you will end up saving big bucks knowing that they can give your garage door a long lasting durability which means it will took years before it needs a next replacement.
But of course, if you really know how to fix the door yourself, then much better right? If you don't then I strongly advice to hire a technician instead of taking the risk.
Have a great day guys and Happy Monday to everyone.

Forms of Advertising

There are so many forms of advertising and all of them are indeed effective in their own special way. Television advertisements are probably the most common and the most effective one. First of all, it gives viewers a chance to view the product. Sellers has a chance to illustrate their products visually, making it easy for their customers to understand what their products really are. Radio Advertisements, on the other hands is not as effective as the Tv commercials but can still attract potential buyers especially those active and avid radio listeners.
Giant billboards are so helpful too since they make the products more visible. Posters and flyers is probably the cheapest form though it needs manual labors to distribute and to post their ads effectively.
Of course, there's nothing can be cheaper than free services right? Well, that's what free classified ads do. Online advertising has different and very interesting approach. Online classifieds offer free services allowing sellers to post an ad with no charge or hidden fees involved. It covers those online businesses too. It helps them to attract customers over the Internet. It is indeed the easiest, the cheapest and the most convenient form of advertising. But of course, you have to keep your product in high standards. Make it more unique that would outsell other items online. It's a matter of strategizing your business too.

IT'S ALL COMING BACK TO ME NOW ~ CELINE DION

The song was the first on Dion's album Falling into You. Steinman produced the track, with Steven Rinkoff and Roy Bittan as co-producers. Bat out of Hell and Meat Loaf collaborators Todd Rundgren, Eric Troyer, Rory Dodd, Glen Burtnick and Kasim Sulton provided backing vocals. The song attracted generally positive reviews. The Calgary Sun stated: "[The song] is undoubtedly the highlight of her English-language recording career. Dion's over-the-top vocals soar and swoop around Steinman's epic, ostentatious arrangement. Not surprisingly, everything else that follows... pales in comparison." Toronto's Eye Weekly said Steinman's "fatal absence from the last Meat Loaf record is finally justified here", and The Miami Herald said "Dion knocks a couple out of the ballpark... [the song] features seven minutes of Wagnerian bombast, thunderclap piano chords and emoting that would wither an opera diva. Sure, it's over-the-top but it's passionate and musical." Some other reviews were less enthusiastic. After labelling Dion "a Madonna-meets-Meat Loaf vocal freak", The Vancouver Sun called the song "intensely self-indulgent, pompously self-important and mediocre beyond belief, the song just never ends." The Ottawa Sun called it 'turgid', while The Toronto Sun, coincidentally, said that it "sounds like a Meat Loaf reject."

On October 15, 2010, David Foster, one of the song composers, included it officially in the repertoire of "The Hitman Returns: The Magic of David Foster and Friends Live" concert series. The updated live version, performed by Filipina singer Charice throughout the tour, goes uptempo on the last refrain. "The Hitman Returns: Magic of David Foster and Friends Live" debuted in Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada, and toured in Asia. The concert will be released as an audio and video compilation on 2011.


Repair or Replace

If you been using your glass window for a very long time, then chances are, the glass will become brittle which breaks easily whenever a strong force is being applied. There are tendency for the window sills to get rot easily too because of too much exposure to water and heat from the sun. Well, you actually have two options for this, it's either you repair it or you replace the windows completely.
If you chose to repair it then make sure that you hire someone who can do the job well. The lifespan of the windows depends on their workmanship so you better choose tor hire the right one. Never dare to repair it all by yourself especially if you do not have enough knowledge about it because you might end up ruining your window which will cost you a lot.
Same thing goes with the replacement. Although you can do it yourself, it is still much better to ask someone who can install it properly. Improper installation will just make the condition worst. It paves way to possible water leakage too which is another big problem if ever.
So to avoid getting in to those worst scenarios, you better hire an expert to do the job properly. Aside from replacing, they can also trace related issues in which they can repair in no time too.
If you're in Oregon and looking for a good Windows Portland replacement service, then Four Seasons is the right company for you. You can check them at their official web page at http://www.fourseasonscontracting.net.
So what do you think is the best and more practical option? Will you Repair it or Replace it?

Changing Your Daily Routine

Having a regular routine or doing the same things everyday must be very boring right? I know the fact that there are things that we cannot really change but at least we can do something to keep ourselves from getting bored. Why not get into sports? It's fun and at the same time it is a perfect energizer. Getting into sports is somehow advisable if you want a healthy and active lifestyle.
Much better if you try something different too. Basketball and badminton are quite common here in our country so they are not that challenging and exciting at all. Same thing goes with the soccer of football.
Why not Golf? That would be fun to try something uncommon here in our country. We have some golf course here in our country but unfortunately, not everyone is paying attention to this very entertaining sports.
Just imagine dealing with those very challenging golf courses. Some of them might deal with obstacles like water hazard and sand bunkers. But of course, it all depends on your location. Lucky you if you are in Oregon because you can visit the well known Lake Oswego. The place is popular for their amazing Golf Courses Portland in Oregon. No wonder why Golf lovers keep on coming back to this place.
