I missed the first 10 minutes or so but taped the rest. I set the new VCR
on its madien voyage as an unattended recorder and I did something wrong.
Anyway, I'm also hoping someone caught the whole thing 'cause I missed
Springsteen. The heros' stories kept me on the edge of tears the whole
night and therefore, the music had a direct line.
My notes say this about Celine Dion:
[1h 42 a pitch perfect "God Bless America" by Celine Dion. It started out
quietly and, as we all expect from Celine, it built in tension and fullness
as the choir joined in. Then it was time for Celine to open up and give it
everything, as she surely can, like Babs used to...... The band fell silent
and she finished quietly like a mother brushing her sick child's hair 'good
night' before she silently leaves her charge to sleep's refreshing grace.]
Understatement from Celine Dion?! What can it mean? :) Has she been lurking
and paying attention to her critics? Maybe there's hope for our world yet!
