Presumably there were several Dion albums before she 'condescended' to
enter the world of the Anglophone. I recall when she was a French-only
artist that she had already reached immense popularity in Quebec, but
in an interview said that she would have nothing to do with the
English speaking music industry. Rumour has it (doesn't it always)
that she only grudgingly acquiesed and accepted a Juno award when she
won.
Then again, I've never been a fan of her music, so I could be totally
wrong. Any info from a more informed (and interested) Canadian listener?
Cheers,
Ross.
