<<Never before have two top artists created such a multimedia work to honour the unique and steadfast bond between mother and child. Vocalist Celine Dion and photographer Anne Geddes conceived Miracle as a way to express something deep within their own hearts, and now both the experience and the outcome will delight music and visual art fans throughout the world. Miracle features more than 100 stunning new Geddes images. Each frame reflects the beauty, grace, and magic of both the photographer and her subject. Babies enfolded in blooms, mothers embracing the life flowering within: Anne's artistic eye captures it all. The exquisite images are wedded with the lyrics to all-new songs by Dion, created and performed on the book-accompanying CD in Celine's unmistakable international superstar style. It's easy to hear how her clear and melodious voice has captivated millions throughout her career. A DVD rounds out this artistic package, exploring the genesis of the Miracle project and taking its audience behind the scenes to witness the making of this memorable production. Celine's title track music video highlights the DVD. As a complement to this many-faceted experience, Sony Music will release its stand-alone Dion CD concurrent with the book's debut. AMP is delighted to play a role in bringing this important collaboration to readers and listeners, providing a crossover experience rivalled by few others. Mothers, grown children, grandmothers, friends, and gift givers everywhere will want to join this celebration of wonder. >>

I have no idea what you mean. Are they steel instruments, or are you just being random again?

A combination of Celine, Geddes, and Alanis would DEFINITELY be hell on Earth.

Irony: for example, steel.

This stuff bugged me and then I had a kid and now I think they should fucking arrest that Geddes woman. It's just vile and probably illegal to do that to babies.
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Frank |

Anyone who asks a Taxi driver "what time they are on 'till" (I mean WHY are you going to hook up with them for a night of debauchery? have some imagination people, I had a great chat with a muslim taxi driver about current islamic perceptions in the media and the ways in which christianity intertwines with islamic faith in a way unknown to most christians and not once did I feel the need to ask him what time he's on 'till)
Anyone who buys "scrunchies" or "padded alice bands" and wears them without a trace of irony
Anyone who doesn't really know what irony is
Ant and Dec
Has anyone seen "Dead Ringers" I say we round up this troup of evil spawn and use the gieger instruments on them to try to figure out what they are really used for

Add to the list:
Anyone who wears band T-shirts of bands they didn't know existed before this whole crappy pop-punk shit.
I can't stand seeing little Britney Spears wanna-be's wearing Ramones T-shirts...It kills me.

Celine and Anne will combine into an unstoppable force! They'll go on a violent rampage, with the cheesy songs and the babies in stupid flower outfits! Even atomic bombs won't be able to take them down!

Lets roll!
We'll expand the list as we go along...as well as the van. We'll have several semis in the convoy before its all over.
Initial additions to "The List":
Individuals who purchase anything related to "WWE".
Individuals who possess anything related to "Orange County Choppers" .
Individuals who have Harley Davidson logos on any vehicle not manufactured by Harley Davidson .
Individuals that purchased anything produced by the musical groups "Creed", "Matchbox 20" or "Kid Rock".
Man, we're gonna need a big team.

Hey now, gyps - babies ain't so bad.
The whole Geddes thing however, thats bad...like, really really bad.
Combined with Canada's most embarrassing export though - its downright nightmarish.
Call me a fascist, but it makes me want to commit mass stupicide.
[knock on door]
"Yes?"
"Hello, did you purchase the Anne Geddes/Celine Dion project titled 'Miracle'?"
"Yes, yes I did and I love it."
"Great, could you come with me for a moment? We have some recording equipment out here in the van and would like to get your opinion on the work."

At work, one girl put on an Anne Geddes' babies screensaver. All girls in my office stood up from their chairs, went to her computer and began a neverending series of "Oooohhhhh"s. I felt like: "If I could find somewhere to puke on..."
