The Power of Love
Say what you want about Celine Dion, she's got a thrilling voice on that (pre-Titanic) track. However, originally written and performed by Jennifer Rush in the mid 80s, I still go with that one. A classic track which went to No. 1 in both versions: Jennifer Rush hit the No. 1 in Europe, while Celine Dion went to No. 1 in the states.

Comments about The Power of Love:
It is a shame that Celine road the wave of blantant theft to stardom with the "cover" of this song which rightfully belonged to Jennifer. There was little that was originally re-done with it with exception to guitar accompanyment and percussion. Otherwise the Jennifer Rush version is always stands out in my mind. She should have made it with this song, not Celine.

I remember this song as a kid, Jennifer sang this with real feeling that showed when she sang this live, Celine's version doesn't really match, its a good cover but lacks the same depth of feeling.

Jennifer Rush for sure, she has an exceptional sound quality in her voice, although the arrangement is somewhat different in the Spanish version, to me it sounds terrific as well.
The song still rocks after all those years.

No question I am not a professional singer though I have an opinion as everyone has. I hands down prefere the passionate arrangement that Jennifer Rush has produced in contrast to the cuter Celine Dion version. I am always touched by the way Jennifer Rush's version is sung and Celine Dion's version had never done that.

Celine Dions magnificant and powerful voice blows Jennifer away, no contest!

I just don't see the talent or vocal technique in Rush's voice. Could anybody show me, please? Céline's interpretation is astonishingly complex and mindblowing. She absolutely improved the original.

The Power of Love, by Jennifer Rush, is one of the greatest love songs ever. The voice of Jennifer Rush combined with the Music and words made this song absolutely unforgettable.

I listened to both of them, and i prefer Jennifer Rush. Why? Because she sounds much more expressive, and her voice is better: clearer, sharper, stronger. Much much better than Celine Dion, who always sounds rusty and old fashioned. Booring!

One of the best songs ever written IMHO
