Let me be your soldier
I'll stand up for you
When your world comes crashing down
I'll be the one to hold you
Let me be your soldier
I'll fight the fight for you
When you're up against the wall
I will pull you through

There comes a time
In everybody's life
When alone is not enough
To make things right
There comes a time
When we need to ask for help
When you're lost and just not strong enough
To make it through the night
When your love is on the frontline...

Let me be your soldier
I'll take the pain for you
When no one else is on your side
I'll defend you
Let me be your soldier
I'll carry the cross for you
When you're down and on your knees
I'll protect you

There comes a time
In everybody's life
When alone is not enough
To make things right
There comes a time
When we need to ask for help
When we're lost and just not strong enough
To make it through the night
When your love is on the frontline...
Let me be your soldier

There comes a time
In everybody's life
When alone is not enough
To make things right
There comes a time
When we need to ask for help
When we're lost and just not strong enough
To make it through the night
When your love is on the frontline
When your love is on the frontline
When your love is on the frontline...

Let me be your soldier, I'll die for you....

The Turin 2006 Olympic opening ceremonies had opera superstar Luciano Pavarotti.

Vancouver 2010 has Céline Dion.

Turin had a tire-squealing Ferrari.
Celine Dion will perform at the opening ceremonies for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver-Whistler.

Vancouver has Jet Skis.

But according to producer David Atkins, the 2010 opening ceremonies at B.C. Place Stadium aren't about competing with previous Olympic extravaganzas.

"We can meet all that stuff easily," said Atkins, executive producer of 2010's opening and closing ceremonies. "I think here we've got Céline Dion, and you've got those Jet Skis and Ski-Doos and stuff. From our point of view, it's to make [the opening ceremony] as reflective of Vancouver, B.C. and Canada as it can be."

Atkins and 2010 staff are conducting a series of brainstorming weekends with more than 100 of Canada's top arts and culture movers and shakers to determine the message Canada wants to convey to the world.

"We're dealing with global themes, messages and symbols," said Atkins, who also produced the opening and closing ceremonies for the Sydney 2000 Summer Games.

Starting this weekend, there will be three workshops held "under strict confidentiality to encourage open, unencumbered discussion and a free exchange of ideas," he said.

Atkins said the much-maligned ice-fishing segment of Vancouver's handover ceremony in Turin doesn't put any pressure on organizers to do better in 2010.

Premier Gordon Campbell later lashed the Turin closing ceremony display by saying, "I thought there were lots of stereotypes that are not what the new Canada is."

According to Atkins, contracts to present the Olympic closing ceremony previews are a "poisoned shell."

"It's an unusual circumstance where a handover ceremony is resoundingly welcomed by the host city presenting it," he said.

Atkins said the same thing happened to Sydney organizers after the handover ceremony at the closing ceremonies of the Atlanta 1996 Olympics.

Australian media became obsessed by the use of "kids dressed as kangaroos on bikes. That was asked in every media interview for the next four years," he said.

Celine Dion Sensational...Live Life Center Stage

"Sensational reflects a woman in charge of her destiny. I want to provide inspiration for women everywhere to live their dreams and strive to achieve their greatest potential."
- Celine Dion

Coty Beauty Inc. announces the launch of Celine Dion SENSATIONAL, a new fragrance sensation premiering worldwide in Spring 2008.

"As one of the industry's very first celebrity endorsed fragrances, Celine Dion has played a major role in establishing the now popular celebrity segment of the fragrance industry" stated by Bernd Beetz, CEO Coty, Inc.

The launch of Sensational coincides with the start of a new phase of the megastar's career, a World Tour starting in February 2008, which will take her to five continents and deliver 160 performances.

"Sensational brings a totally new attitude to Dion's fragrance portfolio, which has generated over $500MM in global retail sales since its creation in 2002. It is the ultimate expression of inspiration, strength and confidence embodied in one of the world's most captivating song artists," stated Steve Mormoris, Senior Vice President Global Marketing.

With Sensational, Celine encourages women to follow her example, exuding luminosity, confidence and strength in their work and personal lives. Just as she fills the stage with her power and magnetism, she provides the same inspiration for women to live their lives center stage.

The fragrance is a modern, luminous floral created by Maurice Roucel of Symrise.
Sensational opens with sparkling icy pear notes married with luscious plum and crisp, juicy apple. These tantalizing fruity notes magically enliven the senses as they evolve into a dynamic medley of vibrant florals: brilliant mimosa introduces the floral heart and intermingles with intoxicating jasmine, luminous freesia and orris. A drydown of rich amber and warm musk creates a captivating balance inspired by the essence of the confident, sophisticated woman.

The packaging mimics the silver and white rays of spotlights criss crossing the stage, announcing the arrival of something powerful, someone of great magnitude.

A dynamic, faceted oval bottle radiates light, evoking elegance and sophistication.
The bottle is washed in a pale rose blush, the color of the fragrance itself, with a transparent cap set on a band of silver.

The bold and vibrant print ad shot by Alexi Lubomirski features a supremely confident Celine in the foreground commanding the stage at the start of her performance. She is luminous, dressed in a dazzling, one of a kind creation by Emanuel Ungaro.
