    Best album after FYI imo because i like almost every song in Courage and i can play the whole album without having the urge to skip. In this time 20 songs in one album are so many but somehow this album flows and time flies. Good job Celine.

    New beats, new styles, and new words of powerful inspirational lyrics. This is a truly a fresh start for a diva like Celine Dion. Definitely one of the best album of the 2019.

    One of her best work without no doubt. The emotions are there, each songs describes a story. Each song is very unique. I love this album so very much. I suggest this album to everyone. You'll not be disappointed! I don't understand the audacity of some of people who gives a 0 ????? This is disrespectful for the effort she put in it!

    Celine’s voice continues to show why she’s the best of the best. The album is a modern take on her normal genre, and proves she really can sing anything!

    "Courage" is an wonderful album where Céline expresses how she's feeling right now as a human being. Without any doubts this 20-track album represents Céline's most adventurous work and most eclectic song selection since her Album of The Year Grammy winner "Falling Into You". You may want to dance on "Flying On My Own", "Imperfections", "Nobody's Watching" or "Heart of Glass".

You may feel like singing along on "Lovers Never Die", "Lying Down", "The Chase", "Look At Us Now" or "The Hard Way". Or simply you need the warmth of Céline's magnificent voice on "Courage", "Say Yes", "For The Lover That I Lost", "Perfect Goodbye" or the surprising "Boundaries". No matter what your mmod of the day is when listening to this masterpiece, you will find what you're searching for and you will instantly need one more listen of this superb album. One of 2019's best albums that is definitely worth a Grammy nomination. Great job Céline and thank you!… Expand

    It had to grow on me a little at first, but it’s on repeat now. The most modern Celine has probably ever sounded on an English record!

    ''Courage'' Céline Dion's new album is a very strong album with wonderful lyrics and brings the identity of the Canadian singer, with the tracks Courage, Lying Down, Baby and Change My Mind.

    This is truly some of her best work in years. She is not afraid to be vulnerable while showcasing those powerful vocals of hers. I am satisfied. Job well done.

    Nesse álbum Céline Dion se mostra totalmente forte, descontraída, destemida e corajosa. Com muitas muito bem produzidas e letras tocantes. Não tem como não dar 10.

    Celine always be Celine in every album... She'll always be true about herself, her style and as she always says, she don't need to prove nothing to anyone... She sings and records music for passion, for love and that will never change. So, this album don't mark any change on her career, but at the same point, is a beautiful return of the Diva after troubled times. Beautiful pop, amazingCeline always be Celine in every album...

Beautiful pop, amazing EDM and a timeless voice à little bit rasppy, but always powerful and great and very very emotional.
    So, for me, this is a great pop-rock album for a woman that after 29 years of English career don't need to prove nothing to anyone, but still want to be important in music and in show-business... Go Girl!    … Expand

    Incredible. Céline is back and better than ever. Modern album with a feel that is familiar to her longtime fans. Absolutely worth a listen through - all the way to the end. It gets better and better.

    At 52 this woman shows how much emotion, skill, power and authenticity she can still bring to the table. Great album, fantastic and diverse vocals, thoughtful and thematic lyrics, and beautiful production.

    With unprecedented access and insight into Dion's world following such a life-changing few years, Courage is a triumph of spirit and resolve.

    In terms of both its length and themes, the 20-track Courage can feel exhausting, alternating between platitudes about grief and self-empowerment that, with only a few exceptions, make what should feel cathartic sound empty and even anonymous.

    A talented interpreter, Dion comes unstuck when she can’t overcome the source material.
