I have a quote for you I read recently. “ The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.” I enjoy your channel, and admire your honesty.
@@tashablue That is why someone like Caesar uses the truth but blows it out of proportion. He is seen as respectful even to "Historian revisionists" and stereotypical edge lords like you. Truth hurts and isn't so popular, especially to the audience like you, doesn't it?
What I never got about that fable was why people listened to the kid. If only wise people could see the clothes, of course some random kid wouldn't see them. So when the little boy called it out, everyone who was already pretending to see the clothes would just call the kid a fool. The king's actions don't make any sense at all either. For one, he should have worn some undergarments, and two, he should have expected that at least some of the peasants wouldn't see the clothes, especially when he couldn't see them himself. Either way, you're right about this.
It's refreshing to see someone trying so hard NOT to insult or demean someone. You made your case as respectfully as it could be made. We all know Celine Dion is a legend. This doesn't change a thing in that regard. It is, what it is. No harm, no foul. Good work, Fil. Ignore the accusations, especially when you've gone above and beyond to show the truth.
already the video he shared is a rehearsal and not the evening of the ceremony... and the media confirmed that it was live at the ceremony at his request! He's a conspiracy theorist who doesn't tell the truth! sorry, he wants views and likes to get money on TH-cam, he made two videos like this for the conspiracy theorists! soon the media will destroy it like a hoax!
I just watched your video of Celine singing “All By Myself” and you gave her so much incredible praise and recognition for her live vocals. People need to realise you’re not attacking Celine, you’re just correcting an untrue statement
Fil, I’m a vocal coach with over 20 years of experience. You are correct - dead on the money. I see the negativity as a result of our society over subscribing to talk shows, podcasts, & reality tv where the listeners’ opinion matters over the opinion of experts in their field. They “pick” the winner! Objectivity & musical expertise is out the window - anyone who “believes” what they are saying mistakes their opinion for fact. The casual listener eating dinner while watching the show somehow thinks they are experts. So does grandma. You know where I’m going here…. I could talk all day about enthusiastic families firing me and/or belittling me after I’ve told them the student’s talent is lacking at that point in time. I Did exactly what I was hired to do. So do you! “Special ears” are a rare talent, even within the music world. It’s a similar argument about vocal health & whether to push an ailing performer to sing or allow them some assistance. To not have a backing track for Celine would be the cruelest & most unprofessional approach taken. Don’t let the rude comments bother you. It’s a level of expertise most will never understand, as I will never understand astro physics 😂Thank you for sharing your extensive talent and keep it up!!!!
Yeah, go watch the doc on her illness, she had to have done it the way they did. Especially for this particular performance. She still ended up being the only decent thing about that whole horrendous show.
I saw her in Vegas a few years back and was disappointed as I was convinced that she was lypsyncing, only to discover after the fact, that she was ill already at that time. Folks are being ridiculous thinking that she can sing with her condition. The organisers would never have risked her failing.
Its so symbolic of the whole Olympics. Fakery at a world class level. Medical teams vs medical teams; men pretending to be women, falsification of tests..........
@@saraselena9298 it's not about art per se, it's about honesty. Some people defending autotune or pitch correction say the final product sounds much better and beautiful. So to them it may be art. Others like natural vocals. But it's the ubiquity resulting from industry coercion, a tyranny of artificiality, and subsequent missrepresentation of the product that is the problem.
@@pit2ryan3… the integrity lies in not implying (or outright stating) that you’re doing sonething else. Kraftwerk weren’t claiming their vocoder work was anything other than what it was.
"Everyone's complicit in not saying what happened." Yeah. There's a lot of that going around these days. You've earned our trust, Fil. Thanks for all you do.
As i was watching live i didnt think for a second this woman was singing live. I was baffled seeing everyone praise her live singing after. Thank you for this analysis! Dont fret about those who disagree. People will never see what they dont want to see.
Does it make me a wicked or hateful person to admit that I noticed something was off when I first heard her I’m not trying to be hateful or anything like that. I can’t stress out enough, but the fact that people are praising her when it was not at all, somebody is lying here and it’s not this guy. It is not this guy.
The problem with society is no one can mind their own business! It’s the way of the world. Many are in tear-down mode and I pray they never ever have to suffer the way Celine has suffered even though they are ignorant, self-centered, and evil. Karma is such a BITE so I hope they don’t have children or grandchildren that could possibly end up in the cross-hairs of their bad energy.
Denial and displacement are defence mechanisms against painful feelings and emotions emerging from a sense of betrayal and loss. Facing the facts and truth permits the grieving process to commence.
I'm not religious but I know that we're living in the days of the fight between good & evil & the idolisation of celebs inc musos is modern day deity worship. Most A-listers literally sold their soul & are satanists. Like Beyonce for example, people literally worship her, therefore they're worshipping a demon
Isn’t it obvious? That a performance on live television, in front of one billion people, the climax of the biggest event France has ever hosted, in a storm, three hundred feet up the Eiffel Tower, next to a dripping wet piano, in the middle of a downpour so bad they actually cancelled the fireworks, with a singer that’s been ill, how on earth could it have been anything other than miming? It’s just so obvious to me.
Celine is probably one of the best singers of all time and this was a perfect performance, but I totally agree that this was not completely live. She was probably singing, but what she was singing was not what we were hearing live. I'm sure if we were standing right next to her up on the Eiffel Tower, it would have been wonderful. But from afar, The accoustics from the orchestra, piano and voice...perfection... but obviously not live or realistic in an open air venu that high up and with that much open space between the singer and crowds below. We all know that, but we still appreciate Celine and her talent.
@@pdsrunner This comment. utterly oblivious, gets 10 upvotes in 2 hours. I guess Fil's efforts pay off and you are all so invested in believing nothing is real anymore that you actually think that made sense. This person seems to think such performances are filmed and audiotaped from among the audience🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm not sure anyone is questioning the integrity here but the fact that in this instance any effort upon her part is appreciated. I'm not sure she will be able to perform for much longer anyway. I've seen what she goes through when she's hit with one of these attacks, anyone whose interested Celine has been good enough to share, and I tell you it leaves you with an appreciation for your own life.
This is just mean spirited!! Celine is singing the song. She looks like she is feeling a bit better and I am sure it was an effort for her to perform. Maybe you are not lying but i think you need to check your moral compass.
😂 he is not a scientist but a little musician in a garage for plotters! go see the live, listen carefully to the breathing in the microphone and at the end look at the chest swelling, there it is live! this guy shows nothing credible and not a reliable analysis! he has no diolom in science, he's a conspiracy theorist who wants likes and to be seen for money on youtube.
@@MossyMozart I am French! the media confirm and the organizers clearly said that she had sung live, at her request and that Lady Gaga and Aya had sung in playback, Celine also had her pre-recording and the same evening she did it at her request live ! we can very clearly hear the breathing in the microphone that he cut off, we see the chorus cut very clearly which proves that it's live! everyone lies except the conspirators or this guy? take care of yourself
@@pascalpetit403yeah, the French media does not lie. Every other media source does but being french makes them incapable of lying🙄🤣 Also, you dont have to be a scientist to understand and use the technology he is using to show that it was pitch corrected. If you dont believe him go find some software and run it on the track yourself. You will see that Fil isnt making things up or lying.
Just cant belive there are so many people thinking she was singing live. After watching 1st 10 sec. and observing it carefuly you can confirm the fact, she was definitelly not. Great analysis, thank you for that.
Although I don't condone it, it is understandable why accompanists and producers would follow the artist's lead in not disclosing the truth. Being known as someone who "outs" the talent is not conducive to a healthy career in the music industry moving forward.
Thanks for this other video... I don't understand why truth it's so difficult to digest. I saw your previous video and it's absolutely clear. Plus, it's a rule of Olympic games events since many years to pre record their songs and perform on lipsync for precautional reasons in case of last minute technical issues or weather conditions. Even in 1996 she was on lipsync and it was fine. Lady Gaga hates lipsync and always wants to sing live for her fans, but she was on lipsync. Rules are rules. I'm a big fan of Lara Fabián, and she was singing at the opening of Asian Games in 2011 and she was on lipsync . And I know and it was fine, I do understand rules and I wasn't so indigned and start attacking who says the truth. But it looks like all CD fan became suddenly expert... Without knowing a thing about music and voice recording. When i first watch the video, as a musician it came to me suddenly that it was on lipsync. The sound too perfect, no frecuency difference when she moves her mic, rain, no monitor,. No sound check before.. Everything sounded too perfect.. I did post my comment telling that, and I have been immediately attacked from bunch of people telling me I'm a liar, I'm spreading fake news and that I don't understand a thing about music. Then more people came out , like this TH-camr telling the truth , mostly of CD fans disappeared and some still keep telling this is a lie... I don't understand why it's so difficult to digest.. And I would suggest to many people here.. Instead of immediately attacking people, think twice. Nobody is mocking CD, nobody is denigrating her... I guess if they did the same when she was on lipsync in 1996. I will share this video on my channel and hope to get comments from people that has been attacking me.
Thank you once again Fil for yet another insightful video of Céline’s ‘Performance’ at the Paris Olympics … Although I was completely devastated to learn that this was not a ‘Live Vocal’ on the actual night itself. Having just watched the the documentary only a few days before of ‘I Am Céline Dion’ and thought that This appearance was extremely ambitious feat now understanding what SPS is and the effect it has on Céline’s vocal ability ~ I almost held my breath throughout this entire performance and praying nothing Would go wrong. In hindsight of course you were totally spot on as always. As you correctly pointed out electricity and water do not make the best bed fellows! So, it’s more than obvious This had to be done regardless to a prerecorded vocal. I’m still annoyed however about the fact that someone in Their wisdom thought it would be a good idea to use Pitch Correction Software on her fabulous voice which was The crime that was committed for this ‘Performance’ I do not believe that she needed it in my opinion. Thank you once again Fil for everything you do I WILL NOT be Unsubscribing any time soon! ♥️🇬🇧🏴
I am tone deaf. Totally tone deaf, like asked to leave elementary school band. I am able to hear her real voice and the prerecorded. Good job on you for exposing this.
The titles and thumbnails are the problem. And as much as you can say "watch the whole thing before commenting," the title and thumbnail are your first impression. Why leave people with a bad impression and then have to spend twenty minutes undoing it?
I thought so, too. He doesn't criticize Celine for not being live. He made it clear it would have been stupid and irresponsible to do it live, because of the importance of the performance and the risks of doing it live.
@@ruthlafler5622 He did. He also said it would have been nice to hear her real vocals if possible, as people would have understood with the battles she’s had with her health. Again, people only seem to get the hump when it’s an artist they like. He’s done many before her and he’ll do many afterwards. If a performance of that magnitude is being touted to us as live, then they should also be prepared for it to be analysed and not just taken as it’s fact. If she did do it live and it wasn’t the best, in years to come the original would have been taken down and blocked anyway, and we’ll just get a pitch corrected version anyway, as that’s what they seem to be doing with everything else. I’ve watched the whole of both and I won’t be losing sleep over them. They entertained me for forty five minutes, give or take and have no effect on my life at all. If it was an artist I liked, I wouldn’t give a crap either, I’d find it just as entertaining, then I’d get on with whatever else I was doing with my day.
@@jamesarthurkimbell what are you talking about? The thumbnail says "Fake... or not?" and the title says "was Celine Dion singing live? Let's check it out". Can you point me to what is disrespectful in those? I can't find it.
@@pepe_sasia Tabloid presentation of "EXPOSING the TRUTH" feels like it's promising the thrill of seeing celebs without their makeup, rather than a genuine bit of science and technique
I agree, had Celine taken it down a few steps and done the best she could, people would understand. However, the amount of ego involved in an event like this goes way beyond Celine herself. I think that even if Celine was still in good health, they wouldn’t have wanted her to sing 100% live due to the technical risks alone.
The best excuse I've heard is that they do it as a "safety net." There are so many things that can go wrong, and no doubt the pressure was _very_ high on this performance.
Celine’s “comeback” through this performance is a powerfully moving story. The fact she was pre-recorded and pitch-corrected doesn’t change that for me. Her singing at all, standing and performing at all, after all she’s been through, I salute her. She’s still a resilient human; she doesn’t have to be a Marvel superhero to have our admiration and respect. I believe this man.
Thank you for taking the time to prove what millions suspected from the start. There is a BOMBSHELL awakening coming for all regarding many top artists, yet many will never accept the truth, even when it’s in their face. God bless you❤
This is 100%. As someone in the production world who, also, does some audio production, I watched that and immediately thought there's no way this was live. You just confirmed this for me with this waveform analysis. Thank you!
You were clear that she's got a beautiful voice, were respectful of her health challenges and simply shared the info. I love Celine, too, but we're not in a cult!
I thought your first video was done very kindly. I'm sorry so many people have been giving you a tough time. The rest of us appreciate and respect you and your work very much.
Well thank you. As a medical person (45 yrs) and a singer. I really found it strange that she could be so perfect with her severe disease and muscle wasted body. Don’t forget the vocal cords use muscles as well
Oh, I had no idea Celine is hanging health problems. Seems like her big fans would understand her situation and support her anyway. I'm glad the Olympic committee decided to still offer her the gig in her condition. She's still an admirable and talented artist. Age doesn't change that in my personal opinion.
As a disabled person, I'd prefer that she showed the struggles of singing and and how technology helped her to maybe singing for the last time, than faking a miracle!
Wow, you seem more than ready for the Deep fake technology and holograms! Guess they are going to ask her to perfom in the next olympics ritual as well! She'll wear a Black lether gymnasian outfit and together with Cher perhaps, you'll see one hell of a trapetsy show? Madonna is more than willing to join too! 😂😂😂
After watching the documentary that she did about her illness, you would realize that there is no way that she was singing live. She sang it, but I believe what you are saying, it was a pre recorded voice track.
Thank you for telling the truth! I also wonder how she could be there at all? According to many YT videos she is very ill, but suddenly she's there singing perfectly and looking perfect. It doesn' t add up.
I understand some peoples need to defend Celine Dion against anything negative because she has had some terrible tragedies in life, including a really awful neurological condition. But, with all that said, the facts are what they are. This is not a hit piece, this is a presentation of the facts.
Her really awful neurological condition appeared shortly after the safe, & effective jab, one of which the adverse effects is what she got. Prior to this she encouraged many to get this jab, so while it's sad, it does appear to be earned universal cause and effect.
It’s NOT even about Celine. It’s a gigantic show in front of billions of spectators. The production time probably cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a minute. The schedule is so ridiculously tight and complex, the logistics are insane, the last thing they want is to deal with technical issues, or a “human” issue. With a prerecording less is up to chance, and every second is accounted for ahead of time.
@@G-ra-ha-mthats not even true. She said in her documentary that she was experiencing symptoms as early as 2008 and they got worse after 2016. You don't like the COVID vaccine, fine, but stop lying.
@@ThemFuzzyMonsters Yes, a 'human' issue in the olympics - what a shocking thought LOL. The whole concept of having non athletes in the opening ritual is just another layer of fail..
@@ThemFuzzyMonsters and some of us remember singers like Liza or Linda Ronstadt or Karen Carpenter singing into the modern equivalent of a home karaoke system and sounding beyond perfect
Wow. We all know Celine is a truly spectacular vocalist. SHE.CAN.SING. Period. She did not sing live that evening. She performed. I don’t care that she did BUT I do care if her team and sycophants LIE about it.
The first thing that I wondered when I saw her singing, ¿ how on earth is she singing live if only some days before she said she couldnt sing ? THANK YOU FOR TELLING THE TRUTH. Nowadays people who dare to tell the truth ARE TRUE DIAMONDS !
Celine never said a few days before that she could not sing. I don't know where you're getting that fact from? If you are referring to the sit-down interviews where she said she could not sing as in her documentary that was filmed like two and a half years ago.
@@dariadaltonThey probably just saw it a few days ago, as for me, I just saw it for the first time 3 weeks ago. So whether it was years, last week or yesterday she still said she could no longer sing and now she suddenly can? 🤔
@@SouthernBelle67 it wasn't suddenly. If you don't follow the progression of the news then you're out of touch with your comments. She appeared on the Grammys this past March and she sang backstage and she sounded like her old self. Then when she was interviewed by Vogue magazine she did a video and she sang a little bit on the video again sounding exactly like she was back. You can't take what was said two and a half years ago that she had lost her voice when she's been working with a doctor to manage her stiff person's syndrome and working vocally with a coach for over 2 years now. So this is not all of a sudden and she did an interview on prime time saying oh yes I will sing again that's for sure.
@@dariadalton That’s wonderful for her!👏I hope she continues to improve. Far as suddenly, I was referring to the other commenters point of view how it may have seemed from just seeing the interview video a few days ago to her status as of now.
@SouthernBelle67 a chance at the Olympics, that's how she can somehow sing again. People get divisive for this fame; pretending they can do stuff, like breakdance.
As a 4 year fan of Wings of Pegasus Channels- and long time musician -Phil you're credibility is beyond reproach. Thank you for exposing entertainment fraud running rampant and maybe saving people hundreds of dollars per ticket seeing this fraudulent stuff live.❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Have you heard Fil's live vocals without reverb and protools? Worse than your neighbour's tween screeching in the garage. Painfully bad. Dude can't sing at all. Watch America's Got Talent when he walks shirtless through the audience making a fool of himself. The Honest Vocalist posted and analyzed this same phone rehearsal audio/video of Celine TWO days ago. It's not some secret info that was sent to PHIL. She shows the complete video and Celine is obviously using the backing track as something to match her singing too. She doesn't hit all the notes, but she certainly gets better as the rehearsal progresses and she sings more full out. So PHIL shows you only two seconds of it for what reason? Back to the algorithm L I N E S. Dude is such a yawn. He knows exactly what he's doing catering to OLD followers by confirming to them that music was better back in their days. He peddles nostalgia. His is one of the more boring reaction channels. One trick only. Lots of 45 year old white dudes have a lot of guitars in their basement. PHIL makes his living off his TH-cam videos.

Seems like everyone today thinks lying is acceptable. What a shameful society we live in where honesty is no longer valued by many. Appreciate your honest review. There’s no disputing what you have shown. ❤️🙏
Just keep it up Fil. Some people have a tough time with science. Some people will never understand that the human voice will never duplicate itself. Every time you sing a song, no matter how good you are, they will never be the same regardless of how it sounds to the human ear.
Thank you Fil. This is a wonderful analysis video. Your integrity is why your channel is steadily expanding. Keep it up. I'm glad I'm here for the ride.
Thanks, Fil. Chin up. You're doing a wonderful service with facts, data, and honesty. The truth is sometimes difficult, but I'm grateful you have such an extensive history so these kerfuffles are landing with you being the truth-teller. Keep up the good work.
With her condition it's impossible to know when, if or ever she can sing. Going stiff hits out of the clear blue! I'm FINE with Fil's analysis AND I'm fine with her using a very sensible safety net! Her fans are thrilled to see her, no matter what. A true global treasure. I'm glad she had the opportunity to be back on stage!! ❤
@@loriholloway5866 I would appreciate her voice even if it wasn’t as good as it used to be. I despise the shams people use today. For what reason would they have to use the word “live”. If live meant the singer is alive and singing to you right now, that’s fine. To imply her voice hasn’t been enhanced is a total lie.
If Celine didn’t sing it live then we understand there is a very good reason. It was great to see her and if it helped with her mental health to be up on stage while she is trying to get herself well again then so be it.
I think it's shameful that you would have to make another video just to prove your honesty because of these die-hard Celine Dion fans who refuse to believe that she can do no wrong. Right or wrong, she lip-synced, and you did well in proving that to all of us. You owe nobody any explanations. Well done!
Even as a “die-hard” Celine fan, I noticed the wavering vocals and now, courtesy of Fil, I learn that even those feeble vocals were enhanced. I’m a singer and I've noticed, with age two things: I can't always hit the note and I can't hear the note. My hearing is not what it used to be. I was tested at University of Michigan and declared to have perfect pitch...then. I no longer enjoy perfect-pitch. I watch Fil’s videos and learn that seemingly perfect vocals are enhanced. As a singer this is a slap in the face.
Ann Wilson has aged with dignity. She has moments of sheer brilliance but also segments of the reality of a brilliant artist who is 76. I saw her a few months ago from 5 feet directly in front of her and was able to chat between songs. She was just as magical and the legit spots where needed she rose to the occasion and she backed off elsewhere to save up for those chosen spots. Celine could have backed it down to a couple moments she could have similarly reached and it would have been 100 times more meaningful. Now, she is a sad thing, a liar of convenience who has insulted every fan who cares about how great she once was. Even with severe limitations, a scaled down but REAL version would have moved her fans way more than this mechanical monstrosity which is the last live image I will ever have of her. Sad.
@@JustPlainFolks Not so much a slap to the fans, more like it is hard to watch someone so beloved like her is in such an agony condition and position now, I do not blame her for pre-recording and enhancement technology, she is not the only one who did it that night, and it is a norm in showbiz, as outdoor performances rely heavily on the weather conditions, like the American President Inauguration performances were all pre-recorded, as the event is written in the law to be held in winter.
@JustPlainFolks I have a tremendous amount of respect for Ann for reasons that you have mentioned, and have always been a big fan of hers. Although I have not necessarily been a big fan of Celine, I certainly acknowledge what a great vocalist she was. There's a difference between lip-syncing on old television shows that either didn't have the space, or were not equipped for someone's soundboard and musical equipment and someone performing live in front of a massive crowd. Either way, lip syncing is a lie, but in this case, when fans were eagerly awaiting to see how this legend would perform, it seems like an even bigger lie. I would have much rather have seen her perform it live, flaws and all, even if her vocals had to be toned down to what they were capable of reproducing. I would have respected that greatly!
If they are using a backing track at rehearsals which contains the lead vocal, it strongly suggests that the "live" performance will be mimed. You are 100% correct in your analysis and I agree with absolutely everything you said on this subject. Thank you for speaking (and revealing) the truth.
Hey Fil, I was a musician and I have a music related channel. I love what you do. Anyone who says anything negative about you or your videos knows nothing about the industry. Just keep making Wings of Pegasus videos for people who enjoy Wings of Pegasus videos.

Thankfully a few people I respect like my music, but I'm sure these people below haven't even been to my website to see what people have said. But it's not my problem thankfully!
@wingsofpegasus Yeah, the people who take the time to unlike a video or make negative comments usually have no knowledge about what they're commenting about so it just seems like a waste of time to even acknowledge them. Keep doing your great videos Fil.
I subscribed to replace one person who left. I appreciate your honesty and courage. You don't have an ax to grind, i.e., no reason to trash Celine. You mean no disrespect. You have pulled back the curtain on show business and shown what sometimes has to be done so the "show can go on". In the process, we heard a version that she could perform perfectly live in the past and, God willing, can do again. Her reputation is not tarnished because she is not a phoney. It took courage for her to be there in the venue and weather. She encouraged us with her presence and performance. The official comments about this seem to be semantical sleight of hand. I think you point this out well. Truth matters. Objective truth.
So a person of integrity and honesty with nothing to gain has to justify himself for fulfilling a request. Tty looking deeper into his work, never has there been anything malicious. Get a grip people.
We've watched you enough to trust you and know that you would never lie to us. You always look for the best in the music and musicians. Rock on, Fil!! ❤😊

But, it's not casting any aspersions on her as a person or singer. When it's an event where most performances were pitch corrected it's not a case of pointing any fingers at Celine and calling her a fraud at all. But, several people have said it today and Wednesday. This isn't a live concert. It's a "show" For a major world event with the entire world watching. Producers have their reputation and even the city's reputation to consider. I hope Fil analyzes another performance because the Producers wanted a good show and no excuses. Prerecordings were the best way to go. With most or not all the performances, I'm quite sure.
I could never doubt you Fil as I have watched many of your vids over many years and you have been consistent with sharing your analysis supported by detailed proof to back up all facts that you present. Thank you for your forensic work and musical expertise. Brilliant!!
Here is how to spell his name 😊: Fairness Integrity Love Yes, love. Fil really cares about saving music in this time of deceptive practices. Every artist and every fan should deeply appreciate him. Beautiful work, Fil, as always!❤
People hate to know the truth about their entertainment gods and goddesses because it challenges their idol worship and lack of real substance in their lives. Imagine what will happen in a real power down situation without their tv, smartphone, internet lifelines telling what to think and feel.
I saw some pedantic, scornful, coments before, but you're definitely gold medalist... you don't have to try so hard to show how contemptuous you are. I bet you don't have tv, smartphone, internet, nor people you admire. Yeah, obviously you don't have internet. And no, I'm not Céline Dion fan, i just can't stand people who genuinely think and believe they are better and above the "masses" and have to show it very very very hard.
Damn you took that personally didn't you? It's a fair enough statement to make, it's obviously very true for many people and Dude wasn't acting like it made him better than anyone else. You assume that and simply chose to be offended by it. I have no idea why but have a good day
I agreed with you ! For many hear the true is painful in special with this entertainment cult worldwide , the big distraction for ours real purpose in this human experience ! Excellent comment ! Thank you 👏👍
You are a man of integrity. The detractors don't have half your talent or even 1/3 of your technical abilities period. To heck with them all. I hope any controversy just brings you more views. Please keep up the great work!
You're always so kind and easy going, clearly saying the artist is a great singer, or whatever circumstances could have led to the ''correction'' being done..
Thanks for your transparent analysis. I enjoy your honesty and clarity. Most people have apparently no idea how this industry works, and apparently many don't even want to know. There are so many Milli Vanillis out there.
I love Celine Dion very much, but I also would understand that she did not sang life while being ill!!!! But people need to be honest about such things!! And people that tell the truth should be respected, never attacked! So, respect to you!!! Warm greetings from an old rebel-Pinkie
I think performing live, through her disability, would have been incredibly inspiring. I've seen some performances where the singer was clearly struggling and it was moving.
Too many people choose to live in a world of delusion, and don't want their bubbles burst. Keep doing what you're doing - speaking the truth. Thank you.
You are the only one who is honest...I hope that you do not have any difficulties, because you found out all these incorrect things !! Many greets from Germany near Cologne 🥰!!
Fil, you're the best brother, and thank you for pointing all these things out. The truth hurts and most people would rather live in a world of deception than face the truth head on no matter where the outcome may lead. I enjoy, admire and appreciate your honesty brother! Keep 'em coming & Keep on Rockin' bro! 👍✌️🤘
Thank you for your clear logical explanation. I appreciate your hard work.👏👏🙏🏻 I’ve learned so much from you about recording music that I never understood before.
I 100% believed what you said without even hearing the two tracks. I think that it’s enough that Celine even appeared at the Olympics. If anyone has seen her documentary video, you’ll know that she suffers so much with her disease. The fact that she hit a good patch and was able to pull herself together enough to go on stage is truly amazing and that should be enough for us to see her again. I don’t have a problem with her lip syncing to her own previously recorded track. I’ve heard her sing in her documentary and her voice is so different now she could never do that song on stage live and sound like that. Celine has such a tremendous ego, and I’m pretty sure that’s what drove her to this performance and the deception surrounding it. Thanks for the video!😊💛
It's not her ego. It's that singing is her complete identity. She declined dramatically after husband died because he was the other half of her identity from childhood basically.
Yeah exactly with her condition it even makes sense to use a pre-recorded track for her performance. If she were able to sing for real then the disease wouldn't be an issue anymore but it still is so it's not like she got cured for the Olympics.
It absolutely is about ego. “Identity” as a superstar is 100% about ego. I got the impression after watching the documentary and also years of her in interviews, she is always performing and gets so much fuel from performing, the adoration of fans and most importantly, being the main focus. She’s spent her entire life being adored, admired and being propped up at the most talented person in the room…. even the world. To suddenly take all that adoration and goddess-like persona away, so abruptly, will of course throw a narcissist into shock and mourning. I do feel sympathy for her pain and suffering, but I think it’s also acceptable to say she is not handling the “world moving on without her”.
The fact her film is called "I AM: Celine Dion " says a lot about the ego. Who else calls Himself "I am" (God)? She had a beautiful voice, but sadly, it's gone. She shouldn't be participating in this facade!!
I watched her live on the night and was really impressed, always loved Edit Piaf singing this French classic. So i was taken for a bit of a fool. I remember thinking wow what a performance!
@@martinmcdonald4207 But she DID sing it, and pretty obviously recently!! And if they would've just picked certain notes to correct probably would've sounded even better with some "imperfections" / inflections!! So don't be too hard on yourself!!! It was amazing no matter when it was done!
It seems that whoever speaks the truth quietly is yelled at the loudest by the masses who insist on believing what they want to believe. Thank you for telling us the truth Phil, many of us see the facts for what they are. FACTS are final.
I think Celine's biggest struggle, is coming to terms with her disability. In her movie, she stated many times that her desperation for a come back, is not for herself, but for her fans. I do not believe this is true. You can tell that she is desperate, and that was heartbreaking to watch. Her stating that she "just couldn't lie to her fans anymore" when she struggled on stage in Las Vegas, was not true either if your video is correct, which I do believe. As I watched a video of her performance in France, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that her song had been prerecorded. All things concidered, I'm sure many would understand, but, like you, don't lie to me. My disappointment wasn't the recording; it was the lie. Your video was well done!
Uh, maybe you should focus on the lies of the UK parliament? Also, if you want to bring back the old vocal music, why don't you bring it back yourself?
I have SPS. I used to be a vocalist. I was shocked when Celine Dion was performing at the opening ceremonies. That she was standing there, moving, was unbelievable. I know first hand what this horrible disease does to the body. I wondered what the heck she was “juiced up” with to even be there, and figured she wouldn’t be moving for a week…..the spasms would be bad after that. This makes so much more sense. Thank you for shedding light on the situation. I hope she had a blast. I’ll be really surprised if she could ever perform live again.
She might have hit the treatment jackpot after several years of testing different options with the best experts in the world, but that doesn't mean she can sing like she did before. Very moving to see her even being out and about.
Agreed entirely. I think she chose to do whatever it took to be there and do that performance. I’m sure she had a lot of drugs in her system simply to be able to move like that. Given what we all saw in her recent documentary, there is simply no way she would be able to sing with that perfection under ANY circumstances, let alone under THOSE circumstances: in the rain, at night, in the open, under all that pressure. It was already enough of a miracle that she was THERE and MOVING. This was important for HER. She NEEDED to do that performance, and she needed it to be amazing. And it was. What is happening to her is a tragedy. I hope this moment is one that gives her joy, not pain, when she reflects on in it later in her life. She deserves joy.
That’s the thing… I’m getting the best treatment for SPS. Over $500k a year, every year worth of treatments. The only thing that might be better is a stem cell transplant-which you can’t get in the USA. And I’ve known people who died from complications of that. I’ve had SPS for 19 years. It’s a spectrum disease, and I’m on the less severe end of the spectrum. From what I ‘ve heard of the severity of her disease, I cannot imagine hoe Celine STOOD for that long. Maybe she was propped up.
Have you heard Fil's live vocals without reverb and protools? Worse than your neighbour's tween screeching in the garage. Painfully bad. Dude can't sing at all. Watch America's Got Talent when he walks shirtless through the audience making a fool of himself. The Honest Vocalist posted and analyzed this same phone rehearsal audio/video of Celine TWO days ago. It's not some secret info that was sent to PHIL. She shows the complete video and Celine is obviously using the backing track as something to match her singing too. She doesn't hit all the notes, but she certainly gets better as the rehearsal progresses and she sings more full out. So PHIL shows you only two seconds of it for what reason? Back to the algorithm L I N E S. Dude is such a yawn. He knows exactly what he's doing catering to OLD followers by confirming to them that music was better back in their days. He peddles nostalgia. His is one of the more boring reaction channels. One trick only. Lots of 45 year old white dudes have a lot of guitars in their basement. PHIL makes his living off his TH-cam videos. Not as a musician. He has an unusual attachment to his basement and computer program. He has no understanding of vocal production or singing technique. He can't even read music.
I don’t know why he feels like he has to explain the same thing again, like with the Eagle lip syncing. I’ve been subscribed for over 6 years. Fil’s just too nice to have to be under attack for telling people (who asked!) what’s going on with “live” performances.
Im no music expert. But from all videos ive been watching over rhe last week or so. Of you just showing the data. Even makes sense to my ignorant knowledge. Why anyone would call ypu a lair is laughable. I like a few of the artist you have done ypur analysis on. And showed the factual data. But i cant get butt hurt. When your analysis showes they lip sink. It is what it is. Your just doing your job. And i have enjoyed watching your break downs. Honest and informative to me. Keep up the hard and good work. People getting upset makes no sense either. Facts dont care about feelings. They are just facts and truth. Man i feel for milli vanilli now days..You have a new sub here. :)

I have a quote for you I read recently. “ The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.” I enjoy your channel, and admire your honesty.
I love that quote.
Was it Mr. Thomas Sowell? Mr Larry Elder?
I would love to talk to them
"Truth doesn't make you popular" I always remember this when I enlighten people.
The truth, by its very nature, will divide.
Yes, the truth will come to a lie, and a lie will come to a truth. Just like it happened with covid.
@@tashablue That is why someone like Caesar uses the truth but blows it out of proportion. He is seen as respectful even to "Historian revisionists" and stereotypical edge lords like you. Truth hurts and isn't so popular, especially to the audience like you, doesn't it?
The emperor had no clothes and the little boy was the only one telling the truth. Keep telling the truth! ❤
Unfortunately, unlike the story, the Emperor doubles down and tells more lies.
Until people get tired and do not " pay attention " to him at all.🤣🤣🤣
What I never got about that fable was why people listened to the kid. If only wise people could see the clothes, of course some random kid wouldn't see them. So when the little boy called it out, everyone who was already pretending to see the clothes would just call the kid a fool. The king's actions don't make any sense at all either. For one, he should have worn some undergarments, and two, he should have expected that at least some of the peasants wouldn't see the clothes, especially when he couldn't see them himself. Either way, you're right about this.
Haha……love the analogy; spot on. People don’t want the “truth” unless it’s their truth.
@@bradystjohn3536 The fable illustrates how political corruption works
It's refreshing to see someone trying so hard NOT to insult or demean someone. You made your case as respectfully as it could be made. We all know Celine Dion is a legend. This doesn't change a thing in that regard. It is, what it is. No harm, no foul. Good work, Fil. Ignore the accusations, especially when you've gone above and beyond to show the truth.
Great comment!
already the video he shared is a rehearsal and not the evening of the ceremony... and the media confirmed that it was live at the ceremony at his request! He's a conspiracy theorist who doesn't tell the truth! sorry, he wants views and likes to get money on TH-cam, he made two videos like this for the conspiracy theorists! soon the media will destroy it like a hoax!
Why should the case be made? What is the added value?

It’s about time we are told the truth rather than being constantly deceived. Thank you.
Yet look at your pic religion other lies
I just watched your video of Celine singing “All By Myself” and you gave her so much incredible praise and recognition for her live vocals. People need to realise you’re not attacking Celine, you’re just correcting an untrue statement
Fil, I’m a vocal coach with over 20 years of experience. You are correct - dead on the money. I see the negativity as a result of our society over subscribing to talk shows, podcasts, & reality tv where the listeners’ opinion matters over the opinion of experts in their field. They “pick” the winner! Objectivity & musical expertise is out the window - anyone who “believes” what they are saying mistakes their opinion for fact. The casual listener eating dinner while watching the show somehow thinks they are experts. So does grandma. You know where I’m going here…. I could talk all day about enthusiastic families firing me and/or belittling me after I’ve told them the student’s talent is lacking at that point in time. I Did exactly what I was hired to do. So do you! “Special ears” are a rare talent, even within the music world. It’s a similar argument about vocal health & whether to push an ailing performer to sing or allow them some assistance. To not have a backing track for Celine would be the cruelest & most unprofessional approach taken. Don’t let the rude comments bother you. It’s a level of expertise most will never understand, as I will never understand astro physics 😂Thank you for sharing your extensive talent and keep it up!!!!
Thanks for the kind words!
I always ask my employees ,what do you think and what you know know ,now tell me which one is which
Yeah, go watch the doc on her illness, she had to have done it the way they did.
Especially for this particular performance.

@@Bellywash With a 2 millions euro , that she had received
Amen!
It's too bad that some of Celine's fans are closed-minded. Your video is no insult to anyone.
I saw her in Vegas a few years back and was disappointed as I was convinced that she was lypsyncing, only to discover after the fact, that she was ill already at that time. Folks are being ridiculous thinking that she can sing with her condition. The organisers would never have risked her failing.

As i was watching live i didnt think for a second this woman was singing live. I was baffled seeing everyone praise her live singing after. Thank you for this analysis! Dont fret about those who disagree. People will never see what they dont want to see.
Does it make me a wicked or hateful person to admit that I noticed something was off when I first heard her I’m not trying to be hateful or anything like that. I can’t stress out enough, but the fact that people are praising her when it was not at all, somebody is lying here and it’s not this guy. It is not this guy.
I made the exact same assumption during the telecast.
They have to guarantee the performance for huge events. They are ALL pre-recorded, same happens w/ the SuperBowl performances, etc.
@@mmanda515 Of course
The problem with society now is that emotions take precedence over facts & truth. Thankyou for saying it like it is.
Thank you*, two words. Thankyou isn't a word.
Society has always been like that
The problem with society is no one can mind their own business! It’s the way of the world. Many are in tear-down mode and I pray they never ever have to suffer the way Celine has suffered even though they are ignorant, self-centered, and evil. Karma is such a BITE so I hope they don’t have children or grandchildren that could possibly end up in the cross-hairs of their bad energy.
People today are not at all comfortable with being told that they have been brainwashed into being emotional judgers.
Denial and displacement are defence mechanisms against painful feelings and emotions emerging from a sense of betrayal and loss. Facing the facts and truth permits the grieving process to commence.
Sadly, people idolize singers, musicians, actors, athletes and don’t want the truth.
They can’t handle the truth 😏
@mtjensen5 - That has nothing to do with " the truth"... Don't you like to dream? Maybe not, but you do it anyway...
I'm not religious but I know that we're living in the days of the fight between good & evil & the idolisation of celebs inc musos is modern day deity worship. Most A-listers literally sold their soul & are satanists. Like Beyonce for example, people literally worship her, therefore they're worshipping a demon
"Let us have our fun" is a slippery slope
I am a super fan of Celine and from the first moment I knew that it was not a live voice, I know his voice. Anyone who does not accept it is not a fan
Isn’t it obvious? That a performance on live television, in front of one billion people, the climax of the biggest event France has ever hosted, in a storm, three hundred feet up the Eiffel Tower, next to a dripping wet piano, in the middle of a downpour so bad they actually cancelled the fireworks, with a singer that’s been ill, how on earth could it have been anything other than miming? It’s just so obvious to me.
👍I know. It's crazy.
It's obvious, to anyone, if you're willing to trust your OWN mind, ears and eyes. Not so apparent, to those who choose to remain blind.
Celine is probably one of the best singers of all time and this was a perfect performance, but I totally agree that this was not completely live. She was probably singing, but what she was singing was not what we were hearing live. I'm sure if we were standing right next to her up on the Eiffel Tower, it would have been wonderful. But from afar, The accoustics from the orchestra, piano and voice...perfection... but obviously not live or realistic in an open air venu that high up and with that much open space between the singer and crowds below. We all know that, but we still appreciate Celine and her talent.
Why was she so important yet they went ahead with their Drag Supper? Screw France.

Well done for standing up for the truth. It's not easy on social media x
I have watched this guy often, he's always professional, honest, and kind. Why people are bashing him idk.
I'm not sure anyone is questioning the integrity here but the fact that in this instance any effort upon her part is appreciated. I'm not sure she will be able to perform for much longer anyway. I've seen what she goes through when she's hit with one of these attacks, anyone whose interested Celine has been good enough to share, and I tell you it leaves you with an appreciation for your own life.

Although I don't condone it, it is understandable why accompanists and producers would follow the artist's lead in not disclosing the truth. Being known as someone who "outs" the talent is not conducive to a healthy career in the music industry moving forward.

@@michaelwills1926 Say it ain't so!
Thanks for this other video... I don't understand why truth it's so difficult to digest. I saw your previous video and it's absolutely clear. Plus, it's a rule of Olympic games events since many years to pre record their songs and perform on lipsync for precautional reasons in case of last minute technical issues or weather conditions. Even in 1996 she was on lipsync and it was fine. Lady Gaga hates lipsync and always wants to sing live for her fans, but she was on lipsync. Rules are rules. I'm a big fan of Lara Fabián, and she was singing at the opening of Asian Games in 2011 and she was on lipsync . And I know and it was fine, I do understand rules and I wasn't so indigned and start attacking who says the truth. But it looks like all CD fan became suddenly expert... Without knowing a thing about music and voice recording. When i first watch the video, as a musician it came to me suddenly that it was on lipsync. The sound too perfect, no frecuency difference when she moves her mic, rain, no monitor,. No sound check before.. Everything sounded too perfect.. I did post my comment telling that, and I have been immediately attacked from bunch of people telling me I'm a liar, I'm spreading fake news and that I don't understand a thing about music. Then more people came out , like this TH-camr telling the truth , mostly of CD fans disappeared and some still keep telling this is a lie... I don't understand why it's so difficult to digest.. And I would suggest to many people here.. Instead of immediately attacking people, think twice.
Nobody is mocking CD, nobody is denigrating her... I guess if they did the same when she was on lipsync in 1996. I will share this video on my channel and hope to get comments from people that has been attacking me.

Thank you once again Fil for yet another insightful video of Céline’s ‘Performance’ at the Paris Olympics …
Although I was completely devastated to learn that this was not a ‘Live Vocal’ on the actual night itself.
Having just watched the the documentary only a few days before of ‘I Am Céline Dion’ and thought that
This appearance was extremely ambitious feat now understanding what SPS is and the effect it has on
Céline’s vocal ability ~ I almost held my breath throughout this entire performance and praying nothing
Would go wrong. In hindsight of course you were totally spot on as always.
As you correctly pointed out electricity and water do not make the best bed fellows! So, it’s more than obvious
This had to be done regardless to a prerecorded vocal. I’m still annoyed however about the fact that someone in
Their wisdom thought it would be a good idea to use Pitch Correction Software on her fabulous voice which was
The crime that was committed for this ‘Performance’ I do not believe that she needed it in my opinion.
Thank you once again Fil for everything you do I WILL NOT be Unsubscribing any time soon! ♥️🇬🇧🏴
Anybody can do the same analysis for themselves.
I am tone deaf. Totally tone deaf, like asked to leave elementary school band. I am able to hear her real voice and the prerecorded. Good job on you for exposing this.
Don’t apologize! The people you are trying to reach will not hear you, and those that are listening already are with you!
I watched the first video. I thought it was done in a respectful manner.
The titles and thumbnails are the problem. And as much as you can say "watch the whole thing before commenting," the title and thumbnail are your first impression. Why leave people with a bad impression and then have to spend twenty minutes undoing it?
I thought so, too. He doesn't criticize Celine for not being live. He made it clear it would have been stupid and irresponsible to do it live, because of the importance of the performance and the risks of doing it live.
@@ruthlafler5622
He did. He also said it would have been nice to hear her real vocals if possible, as people would have understood with the battles she’s had with her health.
Again, people only seem to get the hump when it’s an artist they like. He’s done many before her and he’ll do many afterwards.
If a performance of that magnitude is being touted to us as live, then they should also be prepared for it to be analysed and not just taken as it’s fact.
If she did do it live and it wasn’t the best, in years to come the original would have been taken down and blocked anyway, and we’ll just get a pitch corrected version anyway, as that’s what they seem to be doing with everything else.
I’ve watched the whole of both and I won’t be losing sleep over them. They entertained me for forty five minutes, give or take and have no effect on my life at all.
If it was an artist I liked, I wouldn’t give a crap either, I’d find it just as entertaining, then I’d get on with whatever else I was doing with my day.

I agree, had Celine taken it down a few steps and done the best she could, people would understand. However, the amount of ego involved in an event like this goes way beyond Celine herself. I think that even if Celine was still in good health, they wouldn’t have wanted her to sing 100% live due to the technical risks alone.
Bravo!
The truth can also be ugly.
The best excuse I've heard is that they do it as a "safety net." There are so many things that can go wrong, and no doubt the pressure was _very_ high on this performance.
Celine’s “comeback” through this performance is a powerfully moving story. The fact she was pre-recorded and pitch-corrected doesn’t change that for me. Her singing at all, standing and performing at all, after all she’s been through, I salute her. She’s still a resilient human; she doesn’t have to be a Marvel superhero to have our admiration and respect. I believe this man.
Thank you for taking the time to prove what millions suspected from the start. There is a BOMBSHELL awakening coming for all regarding many top artists, yet many will never accept the truth, even when it’s in their face. God bless you❤
This is 100%. As someone in the production world who, also, does some audio production, I watched that and immediately thought there's no way this was live. You just confirmed this for me with this waveform analysis. Thank you!
You were clear that she's got a beautiful voice, were respectful of her health challenges and simply shared the info. I love Celine, too, but we're not in a cult!
Do you love her Satanic toddlers clothing line? It's...real charming🤯
You're supposed to pretend that young people use tech to make themselves sound better but older people never would, it' just boomers being nostalgic
Her voice is failing as she is getting old. To present her as perfect is a natural desire from musical directors at these Olympics.
@boopster4033 - Yeah. "Cult" was about right 😏
@@boopster4033 😂 Keep going sheep it’s very entartaining
I thought your first video was done very kindly. I'm sorry so many people have been giving you a tough time. The rest of us appreciate and respect you and your work very much.
Glad to see you cited in the Daily Mail, WoP! You are most certainly NOT a liar and I am so sad that there are those who call you such.
You are an honest professional. Try not to let the falseness of others get you down. ❤
Well thank you. As a medical person (45 yrs) and a singer. I really found it strange that she could be so perfect with her severe disease and muscle wasted body. Don’t forget the vocal cords use muscles as well
Perhaps was a clone or hologram

Oh, I had no idea Celine is hanging health problems. Seems like her big fans would understand her situation and support her anyway. I'm glad the Olympic committee decided to still offer her the gig in her condition. She's still an admirable and talented artist. Age doesn't change that in my personal opinion.
@@g.strobl4458 what's a tonge
As a disabled person, I'd prefer that she showed the struggles of singing and and how technology helped her to maybe singing for the last time, than faking a miracle!
That was not a fake singing, you can sing better when you have a long time vocal relaxation
Voila. Well said. I also think this is her last peformance. Unfortunatly.
Wow, you seem more than ready for the Deep fake technology and holograms!
Guess they are going to
ask her to perfom in the next olympics ritual as well! She'll wear a Black lether gymnasian outfit and together with Cher perhaps, you'll see one hell of a trapetsy show? Madonna is more than willing to join too! 😂😂😂
I can assure you no one's vocal is ever live. The risk is too great. For eons it's always been sold as live. Live is Freddy Mercury at Live Aid. 100%
After watching the documentary that she did about her illness, you would realize that there is no way that she was singing live. She sang it, but I believe what you are saying, it was a pre recorded voice track.
Thank you for telling the truth! I also wonder how she could be there at all? According to many YT videos she is very ill, but suddenly she's there singing perfectly and looking perfect. It doesn' t add up.
I understand some peoples need to defend Celine Dion against anything negative because she has had some terrible tragedies in life, including a really awful neurological condition. But, with all that said, the facts are what they are. This is not a hit piece, this is a presentation of the facts.
Her really awful neurological condition appeared shortly after the safe, & effective jab, one of which the adverse effects is what she got.
Prior to this she encouraged many to get this jab, so while it's sad, it does appear to be earned universal cause and effect.
It’s NOT even about Celine. It’s a gigantic show in front of billions of spectators. The production time probably cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a minute. The schedule is so ridiculously tight and complex, the logistics are insane, the last thing they want is to deal with technical issues, or a “human” issue.
With a prerecording less is up to chance, and every second is accounted for ahead of time.
@@G-ra-ha-mthats not even true. She said in her documentary that she was experiencing symptoms as early as 2008 and they got worse after 2016. You don't like the COVID vaccine, fine, but stop lying.
@@ThemFuzzyMonsters Yes, a 'human' issue in the olympics - what a shocking thought LOL.

Wow. We all know Celine is a truly spectacular vocalist. SHE.CAN.SING. Period. She did not sing live that evening. She performed. I don’t care that she did BUT I do care if her team and sycophants LIE about it.

Another telltale sign is the way the camera cut away from Celine’s ‘live singing’ so often.
The first thing that I wondered when I saw her singing, ¿ how on earth is she singing live if only some days before she said she couldnt sing ? THANK YOU FOR TELLING THE TRUTH. Nowadays people who dare to tell the truth ARE TRUE DIAMONDS !
Celine never said a few days before that she could not sing. I don't know where you're getting that fact from? If you are referring to the sit-down interviews where she said she could not sing as in her documentary that was filmed like two and a half years ago.
@@dariadaltonThey probably just saw it a few days ago, as for me, I just saw it for the first time 3 weeks ago. So whether it was years, last week or yesterday she still said she could no longer sing and now she suddenly can? 🤔
@@SouthernBelle67 it wasn't suddenly. If you don't follow the progression of the news then you're out of touch with your comments. She appeared on the Grammys this past March and she sang backstage and she sounded like her old self. Then when she was interviewed by Vogue magazine she did a video and she sang a little bit on the video again sounding exactly like she was back. You can't take what was said two and a half years ago that she had lost her voice when she's been working with a doctor to manage her stiff person's syndrome and working vocally with a coach for over 2 years now. So this is not all of a sudden and she did an interview on prime time saying oh yes I will sing again that's for sure.
@@dariadalton That’s wonderful for her!👏I hope she continues to improve. Far as suddenly, I was referring to the other commenters point of view how it may have seemed from just seeing the interview video a few days ago to her status as of now.
@SouthernBelle67 a chance at the Olympics, that's how she can somehow sing again. People get divisive for this fame; pretending they can do stuff, like breakdance.
As a 4 year fan of Wings of Pegasus Channels- and long time musician -Phil you're credibility is beyond reproach.

The Honest Vocalist posted and analyzed this same phone rehearsal audio/video of Celine TWO days ago. It's not some secret info that was sent to PHIL. She shows the complete video and Celine is obviously using the backing track as something to match her singing too. She doesn't hit all the notes, but she certainly gets better as the rehearsal progresses and she sings more full out. So PHIL shows you only two seconds of it for what reason? Back to the algorithm L I N E S. Dude is such a yawn. He knows exactly what he's doing catering to OLD followers by confirming to them that music was better back in their days. He peddles nostalgia. His is one of the more boring reaction channels. One trick only. Lots of 45 year old white dudes have a lot of guitars in their basement.

I am in 100% agreement with you Fil, and I hear the exasperation and frustration in your voice.

Seems like everyone today thinks lying is acceptable. What a shameful society we live in where honesty is no longer valued by many. Appreciate your honest review. There’s no disputing what you have shown. ❤️🙏
I agree with you 100%❤
She sang so perfectly. I thought how did she do that? She just miraculously was cured of her condition for her performance.
I wondered too
Yes I wondered exactly the same.
Exactly she could hardly talk a few months ago
If she had that miracle, we will surely see her performing again! There's only one, "little" problem, she won't!
The reason for that is very clear!
I don't understand why anyone would put her through that
Just keep it up Fil. Some people have a tough time with science. Some people will never understand that the human voice will never duplicate itself. Every time you sing a song, no matter how good you are, they will never be the same regardless of how it sounds to the human ear.
Thank you Fil. This is a wonderful analysis video. Your integrity is why your channel is steadily expanding. Keep it up. I'm glad I'm here for the ride.
Thanks, Fil. Chin up. You're doing a wonderful service with facts, data, and honesty. The truth is sometimes difficult, but I'm grateful you have such an extensive history so these kerfuffles are landing with you being the truth-teller. Keep up the good work.
Watertight, objective and rock solid arguments, Fil. I think those calling you a liar are not listening to what you are saying.
Yeah, it's hard to argue with people who aren't seeking the truth in the first place.
With her condition it's impossible to know when, if or ever she can sing. Going stiff hits out of the clear blue! I'm FINE with Fil's analysis AND I'm fine with her using a very sensible safety net! Her fans are thrilled to see her, no matter what. A true global treasure. I'm glad she had the opportunity to be back on stage!! ❤
@@loriholloway5866 I would appreciate her voice even if it wasn’t as good as it used to be. I despise the shams people use today. For what reason would they have to use the word “live”. If live meant the singer is alive and singing to you right now, that’s fine. To imply her voice hasn’t been enhanced is a total lie.
If Celine didn’t sing it live then we understand there is a very good reason. It was great to see her and if it helped with her mental health to be up on stage while she is trying to get herself well again then so be it.
Well said
Same team!
100% agree and it’s probably very healing for her to perform again. Her disease probably dictates that she have a backup in case her voice goes out
I think it's shameful that you would have to make another video just to prove your honesty because of these die-hard Celine Dion fans who refuse to believe that she can do no wrong. Right or wrong, she lip-synced, and you did well in proving that to all of us. You owe nobody any explanations. Well done!
Even as a “die-hard” Celine fan, I noticed the wavering vocals and now, courtesy of Fil, I learn that even those feeble vocals were enhanced. I’m a singer and I've noticed, with age two things: I can't always hit the note and I can't hear the note. My hearing is not what it used to be. I was tested at University of Michigan and declared to have perfect pitch...then. I no longer enjoy perfect-pitch. I watch Fil’s videos and learn that seemingly perfect vocals are enhanced. As a singer this is a slap in the face.
Ann Wilson has aged with dignity. She has moments of sheer brilliance but also segments of the reality of a brilliant artist who is 76. I saw her a few months ago from 5 feet directly in front of her and was able to chat between songs. She was just as magical and the legit spots where needed she rose to the occasion and she backed off elsewhere to save up for those chosen spots. Celine could have backed it down to a couple moments she could have similarly reached and it would have been 100 times more meaningful. Now, she is a sad thing, a liar of convenience who has insulted every fan who cares about how great she once was. Even with severe limitations, a scaled down but REAL version would have moved her fans way more than this mechanical monstrosity which is the last live image I will ever have of her. Sad.
@@JustPlainFolks
Not so much a slap to the fans, more like it is hard to watch someone so beloved like her is in such an agony condition and position now, I do not blame her for pre-recording and enhancement technology, she is not the only one who did it that night, and it is a norm in showbiz, as outdoor performances rely heavily on the weather conditions, like the American President Inauguration performances were all pre-recorded, as the event is written in the law to be held in winter.
@@JustPlainFolks wrong, real fans like me don’t care that this wasn’t live, we still love her
@JustPlainFolks I have a tremendous amount of respect for Ann for reasons that you have mentioned, and have always been a big fan of hers. Although I have not necessarily been a big fan of Celine, I certainly acknowledge what a great vocalist she was. There's a difference between lip-syncing on old television shows that either didn't have the space, or were not equipped for someone's soundboard and musical equipment and someone performing live in front of a massive crowd. Either way, lip syncing is a lie, but in this case, when fans were eagerly awaiting to see how this legend would perform, it seems like an even bigger lie. I would have much rather have seen her perform it live, flaws and all, even if her vocals had to be toned down to what they were capable of reproducing. I would have respected that greatly!
We know the truth! Thank you for shining the light❤
I admire your integrity. Sleep well at night knowing you are an outstanding person not just in music, but in all of humanity. Truth!
If they are using a backing track at rehearsals which contains the lead vocal, it strongly suggests that the "live" performance will be mimed. You are 100% correct in your analysis and I agree with absolutely everything you said on this subject. Thank you for speaking (and revealing) the truth.
Hey Fil, I was a musician and I have a music related channel. I love what you do. Anyone who says anything negative about you or your videos knows nothing about the industry. Just keep making Wings of Pegasus videos for people who enjoy Wings of Pegasus videos.

Thankfully a few people I respect like my music, but I'm sure these people below haven't even been to my website to see what people have said. But it's not my problem thankfully!
@wingsofpegasus Yeah, the people who take the time to unlike a video or make negative comments usually have no knowledge about what they're commenting about so it just seems like a waste of time to even acknowledge them. Keep doing your great videos Fil.
I subscribed to replace one person who left. I appreciate your honesty and courage. You don't have an ax to grind, i.e., no reason to trash Celine. You mean no disrespect. You have pulled back the curtain on show business and shown what sometimes has to be done so the "show can go on". In the process, we heard a version that she could perform perfectly live in the past and, God willing, can do again. Her reputation is not tarnished because she is not a phoney. It took courage for her to be there in the venue and weather. She encouraged us with her presence and performance. The official comments about this seem to be semantical sleight of hand. I think you point this out well. Truth matters. Objective truth.
So a person of integrity and honesty with nothing to gain has to justify himself for fulfilling a request. Tty looking deeper into his work, never has there been anything malicious. Get a grip people.

But, it's not casting any aspersions on her as a person or singer. When it's an event where most performances were pitch corrected it's not a case of pointing any fingers at Celine and calling her a fraud at all. But, several people have said it today and Wednesday. This isn't a live concert. It's a "show" For a major world event with the entire world watching. Producers have their reputation and even the city's reputation to consider. I hope Fil analyzes another performance because the Producers wanted a good show and no excuses. Prerecordings were the best way to go. With most or not all the performances, I'm quite sure.

Thank you for your clear logical explanation.
I appreciate your hard work.👏👏🙏🏻
I’ve learned so much from you about recording music that I never understood before.
I 100% believed what you said without even hearing the two tracks. I think that it’s enough that Celine even appeared at the Olympics. If anyone has seen her documentary video, you’ll know that she suffers so much with her disease. The fact that she hit a good patch and was able to pull herself together enough to go on stage is truly amazing and that should be enough for us to see her again. I don’t have a problem with her lip syncing to her own previously recorded track. I’ve heard her sing in her documentary and her voice is so different now she could never do that song on stage live and sound like that. Celine has such a tremendous ego, and I’m pretty sure that’s what drove her to this performance and the deception surrounding it. Thanks for the video!😊💛
It's not her ego. It's that singing is her complete identity. She declined dramatically after husband died because he was the other half of her identity from childhood basically.
Yeah exactly with her condition it even makes sense to use a pre-recorded track for her performance. If she were able to sing for real then the disease wouldn't be an issue anymore but it still is so it's not like she got cured for the Olympics.
It absolutely is about ego. “Identity” as a superstar is 100% about ego. I got the impression after watching the documentary and also years of her in interviews, she is always performing and gets so much fuel from performing, the adoration of fans and most importantly, being the main focus. She’s spent her entire life being adored, admired and being propped up at the most talented person in the room…. even the world.
To suddenly take all that adoration and goddess-like persona away, so abruptly, will of course throw a narcissist into shock and mourning. I do feel sympathy for her pain and suffering, but I think it’s also acceptable to say she is not handling the “world moving on without her”.
Celine is fantastic, just her presence was enough.
The fact her film is called "I AM: Celine Dion " says a lot about the ego. Who else calls Himself "I am" (God)? She had a beautiful voice, but sadly, it's gone. She shouldn't be participating in this facade!!
I 100% bet, that Fil wishes it wasn't corrected and was 100% live..
I watched her live on the night and was really impressed, always loved Edit Piaf singing this French classic. So i was taken for a bit of a fool. I remember thinking wow what a performance!
@@martinmcdonald4207 But she DID sing it, and pretty obviously recently!! And if they would've just picked certain notes to correct probably would've sounded even better with some "imperfections" / inflections!! So don't be too hard on yourself!!! It was amazing no matter when it was done!
They should of told the truth. It wouldn't of made a difference but probably would of loved her more for her Valiant efforts.
@@sherylcorbello2102. Of = have

In her movie, she stated many times that her desperation for a come back, is not for herself, but for her fans. I do not believe this is true. You can tell that she is desperate, and that was heartbreaking to watch.
Her stating that she "just couldn't lie to her fans anymore" when she struggled on stage in Las Vegas, was not true either if your video is correct, which I do believe. As I watched a video of her performance in France, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that her song had been prerecorded. All things concidered, I'm sure many would understand, but, like you, don't lie to me. My disappointment wasn't the recording; it was the lie.
Your video was well done!
Uh, maybe you should focus on the lies of the UK parliament? Also, if you want to bring back the old vocal music, why don't you bring it back yourself?
Well everyone lip synced at the Olympics, I don’t think the artists get a choice to be fair
I have SPS. I used to be a vocalist. I was shocked when Celine Dion was performing at the opening ceremonies. That she was standing there, moving, was unbelievable. I know first hand what this horrible disease does to the body. I wondered what the heck she was “juiced up” with to even be there, and figured she wouldn’t be moving for a week…..the spasms would be bad after that. This makes so much more sense. Thank you for shedding light on the situation. I hope she had a blast. I’ll be really surprised if she could ever perform live again.
Adrenochrome comes to mind...
She might have hit the treatment jackpot after several years of testing different options with the best experts in the world, but that doesn't mean she can sing like she did before. Very moving to see her even being out and about.
Perhaps she was just a clone or a holographic insertion
Agreed entirely. I think she chose to do whatever it took to be there and do that performance. I’m sure she had a lot of drugs in her system simply to be able to move like that. Given what we all saw in her recent documentary, there is simply no way she would be able to sing with that perfection under ANY circumstances, let alone under THOSE circumstances: in the rain, at night, in the open, under all that pressure.
It was already enough of a miracle that she was THERE and MOVING. This was important for HER. She NEEDED to do that performance, and she needed it to be amazing. And it was.
What is happening to her is a tragedy. I hope this moment is one that gives her joy, not pain, when she reflects on in it later in her life. She deserves joy.
That’s the thing… I’m getting the best treatment for SPS. Over $500k a year, every year worth of treatments. The only thing that might be better is a stem cell transplant-which you can’t get in the USA. And I’ve known people who died from complications of that. I’ve had SPS for 19 years. It’s a spectrum disease, and I’m on the less severe end of the spectrum. From what I ‘ve heard of the severity of her disease, I cannot imagine hoe Celine STOOD for that long. Maybe she was propped up.
I thoroughly enjoy your videos and I respect your honest and truthful commentary. Please keep doing what you do so very well!
I must say your analysis was very, very respectful. And I have no doubt you have your facts straight.
People wake up, Fil knows what he's talking about. I appreciate your honesty Fil, and your appreciation of music and singers from all decades.
You need no defense, my friend- you can be counted on for objectivity and class!
👍💖
Have you heard Fil's live vocals without reverb and protools? Worse than your neighbour's tween screeching in the garage. Painfully bad. Dude can't sing at all. Watch America's Got Talent when he walks shirtless through the audience making a fool of himself.
The Honest Vocalist posted and analyzed this same phone rehearsal audio/video of Celine TWO days ago. It's not some secret info that was sent to PHIL. She shows the complete video and Celine is obviously using the backing track as something to match her singing too. She doesn't hit all the notes, but she certainly gets better as the rehearsal progresses and she sings more full out. So PHIL shows you only two seconds of it for what reason? Back to the algorithm L I N E S. Dude is such a yawn. He knows exactly what he's doing catering to OLD followers by confirming to them that music was better back in their days. He peddles nostalgia. His is one of the more boring reaction channels. One trick only. Lots of 45 year old white dudes have a lot of guitars in their basement.
PHIL makes his living off his TH-cam videos. Not as a musician. He has an unusual attachment to his basement and computer program. He has no understanding of vocal production or singing technique. He can't even read music.
I don’t know why he feels like he has to explain the same thing again, like with the Eagle lip syncing. I’ve been subscribed for over 6 years. Fil’s just too nice to have to be under attack for telling people (who asked!) what’s going on with “live” performances.
@@SuziQ. Yes, Fil is honest- even if it's not what people WANT to hear. That's integrity!
@@SuziQ. Why did they ask? So people can make fun of her?
Im no music expert. But from all videos ive been watching over rhe last week or so. Of you just showing the data. Even makes sense to my ignorant knowledge. Why anyone would call ypu a lair is laughable. I like a few of the artist you have done ypur analysis on. And showed the factual data. But i cant get butt hurt. When your analysis showes they lip sink. It is what it is. Your just doing your job. And i have enjoyed watching your break downs. Honest and informative to me. Keep up the hard and good work. People getting upset makes no sense either. Facts dont care about feelings. They are just facts and truth. Man i feel for milli vanilli now days..You have a new sub here. :)
