Céline Dion recently unveiled her latest single “Bonjour, Pardon, Merci,” following the release of her first song in three years, “Dansons,” in April. The new track, penned by French Lebanese singer-songwriter Ycare, delivers a message of universal human experience through its poignant lyrics. Inspired by the Hawaiian prayer Ho’oponopono, Ycare composed lyrics that reflect resilience and gratitude in the face of life’s challenges.
Recorded in Las Vegas, “Bonjour, Pardon, Merci” features Céline Dion’s powerful and refined vocals, which left a lasting impact on Ycare and his team during production. The song’s lyric video, created by the talented Chinese Canadian motion artist Yoho Yue, adds a visual dimension to the heartfelt message.
Fans can anticipate a 12-inch vinyl EP containing both “Dansons” and “Bonjour, Pardon, Merci” set for release on September 4, available for pre-order now. In addition to her upcoming residency at La Défense Arena in Paris, Dion is scheduled to perform ten more shows in May 2027, marking her highly anticipated return to the stage after a hiatus due to stiff-person syndrome diagnosed in 2022. Apart from a surprise appearance at the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony, Dion has not performed live since March 2020.
