THE PURPOSE OF THIS SITE This website was created in 1999 by long time fan and Celine Dion collector John Manley
The purpose was to create a complete online catalogue of Celine's music releases.
As she has been recording since 1981, Celine has an enormous wealth of matrial behind her.
Because of this it can be very difficult to gain information on all of these releases.
This site helps to address those problems by offering the collector the detailed information they require,
whilst giving the general fan details like which album a track can be found on and lyrics to all her songs.

USING THE ALPHABETISED LISTS Articles of speech (A, An, The) are ignored, e.g.:
"The Colour Of My Love" is found under C, not T; & "A Natural Woman" is found under N, not A
This does not apply to French releases, e.g.:
"Un Enfant" is found under U, not E; & "La Religieuse" is found under L, not R.
Releases that are widely known by two or more titles are listed under each of these for ease of use, i.e.:
"Any Other Way", found under A, is also listed as "(If There Was) Any Other Way", found under I.
