My faith in Celine Dion was dying. Undeniably, her voice was and is remarkable, but some of her songs of late had frankly been worrying. Though 'A New Day has Come' may have been embraced by relieved Celine fans, it was no masterpiece. From her signature power ballads to dance to dodgy R&B, Celine's blitz on countless styles of music was confusing. Many of the tracks seemed over produced and /or badly mixed (what on earth went wrong with 'I'm Alive'?'). Thankfully, it seems that 'One Heart' is a strong, focused offering with straightforward contemporary pop as its mainstay. It's very much a 2003 version of 'Falling Into You.'
'One Heart' starts with Celine's funky version of Roy Orbison's 'I Drove all Night.' People say it lacks soul, but this version is worked around groovy dance rhythms, so it's not exactly going to be a 'My heart Will Go On', is it? Take it for what it is, and that's a really energetic opening to the album (and first single). Max Martin provides some breezy tracks like 'Faith' and the impressive 'In his Touch'. The middle tracks are broadly upbeat, easy going, feel-good kind of stuff. Celine's vocals sore in 'I Know What Love is', and the closing track 'Je t'aime Encore', with a great acoustic accompaniment. Mostly strong songs then, except for the reworked 'Sorry for Love' which limps along dangerously with kind of calypso undertones - dire. And what about 'Have You Ever Been in Love?' Haven't we already heard that?!
I am honest when I say that I recommend this album. It's fresh and more simple than former disks. Although I'm a fan of Celine Dion, I'm not blind to the fact that Sony has been churning out some pap lately knowing full well that Dion's megawatt sales tally would keep growing. Celine isn't resting on her laurels here though - 'One Heart' delivers, and really does deserve the five stars. Superb voice, great songs. Nice photos too - What a hat! Thanks Celine!

Well no one ever admits to buying one of her albums but selling over 150 million albums worldwide and shes been knocking around for over 20 years would you believe , from her humble beginnings in quebec (canada) and france to hugh hits such as My heart will go on which scored her the biggest single of 1998 an oscar and a couple of Grammy's which she added to her cabinet of awards .On each release she amazes me each time with her beautiful voice and such great material this album is brought her slap bang up to date with modern pop songs but still with the love ballad theme which she is so famous for. From the title track 'One Heart' which is a lively upbeat song to I drove all night her first release from the album along with 'Naked' and " Reveal' which are strong and funky showing the best of her voice and proves she can really sing modern upbeat songs as well as ' Sorry for love' and 'In his touch' the ballards on this album, Throughout this album the songs show all her styles of singing. Some of the songs on this album she will be performing at her new three year concert 'A New Day' in vegas which also gives a feel of her more modern approach to songs and by releasing this album I think Sony are hopping to catch a broader fan base as well as pleasing her current fans across the world. In my own view celine is the best female artist of our time. And if she can continue to move with the times she will be around for a hopefully another 20 years.

The album is brilliant and totally deserves five stars, but not only is the album very short (14 songs lasting just under an hour) two of them were on her last album which I already have. Seems the album was put together in a rush and they didn't have enough songs so two from the last album were put on to make up the time.
