Oct 23, 2017Celine Dion é uma das poucas cantoras que fico animado quando lançam um CD. Esse CD marcou o ano de 2007, com a super faixa tÃtulo e a turnê que se tornou uma das mais lucrativas de todos os tempos.

May 12, 2013It is a really good album. She tried to do something different, and that is what she did. The sound and lyrics are brilliant, the only problem is the too long length of the album. I think she could did a masterpiece without so many songs.
-
May 25, 2012This is a great album. Her voice in this album is really good. The tracks are good and I can really connect to it. I don't understand why some users gave it a 0 or 1. All I know is...this is a great one from Celine Dion.............

DavidM.Dec 19, 2007'This Time' is brilliant! Lots of other gens for those willing to give it a good listen.

IgorL.Dec 13, 2007I really don't get Celine Dion. in "taking chances" she doesn't create nothing and manages to deliver only one good single.

NickU.Dec 9, 2007Maybe if celine took some chances, she'd produce a decent record. not to mention: scariest. cover art. ever.

HaroldG.Dec 5, 2007This is an awful album.

JohnBNov 29, 2007I loved every one on this album. But then I enjoy all her music. Gald to have her back with such a bang.

VincentP.Nov 27, 2007Malignant & dogmatic ear-pain is the kindest description one should give of her singing.
-
-
JeffB.Nov 23, 2007Finally, she gave us a wonderful album.

MicheleNov 21, 2007Fantastic album. No other singer compares with Celine. And with her looks, I like to think of her as the new Cher.

TimS.Nov 20, 2007Solid Celine the way we love her. Even if she debuts at 2 or 3 on billboard behind keys, the album will outsell As I am in the long run, because that is just how celine dion has always worked. In the long run, she is the best singer of our times....

LouiseL.Nov 19, 2007Just love her new cd Taking chances! Can't wait to see Celine THE unique performer on stage with those new songs. Welcome back Celine!

JohnB.Nov 19, 2007One good song from Heart and the rest you can forget. What is Celine thinking? Some of it sounds like a Brittany Spears album. Awful songs, awful singing, unispired arrangements. A real step backwards. A few more albums like this, and I will be skipping her cd's. what a disappointment and what a sell out.

DanielW.Nov 17, 2007Wonderful! Glad to have Celine back!

SimonC.Nov 17, 2007It's a gr8 album from Celine. Her voice glides effortlessly from deep whispers to dead-on high notes, a sweet siren that combines force with grace.

-
BradP.Nov 17, 2007Whatever chances Celine took on this album, they don't compare to the risk I took in listening.

LindaG.Nov 16, 2007Love Celine. Am used to her power ballads but love the sound of most of the songs on this new CD. Her voice is a wonder

MickeyM.Nov 16, 2007and that's just from thinking about it.

-
StephenM.Nov 16, 2007I eagerly awaited this new album. The title track is a winner. The rest of the album, which is sags a little in the middle, is still solid Celine. The biggest chance she's taking with this album is that crazy hair she's sporting on the cover.

JohnSNov 15, 2007The album is fantastic. 16 tracks, and a lot of heart & soul & "talent" went into. Screw the critics-especially since she is an easy one for them to pick on. I've seen the ladt perform live on several occasions and she can "Really" sing her heart out! Great album and along time coming.

MikeTNov 15, 2007It's a good album. Celine's back with a new "update" sound and it's what she needed. I'm not sure of her new way of singing -- I think there's sometimes a lack of vocal "technique" if we compared with the way she sang in the past on "Falling Into You" album for example -- where it was perfect.

MartinD.Nov 15, 2007celine's best record !!!

Awards & Rankings
-
As far as standard Celine fare goes, in fact, Chances is likely her strongest non-French outing since 2002's "A New Day Has Come;" nobody unfolds a lyric with more care or nuance.
-
Packing an emotional wallop, Chances should quash critics who insist that Dion's voice is stainless steel.
-
The laborious 16-track record purportedly finds the queen of adult contemporary-turned-Vegas attraction taking chances by modernizing her treacly power ballad sound with lots of overdubbed guitars and of-the-moment collaborators.
