A minor hit, the song would attract a good deal of attention in 1990, when three female singers each covered the song and placed it on their respective albums of that year.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Laura Branigan recorded the song for her sixth, self-titled album. Expatriate American singer Lory Bianco recorded the song for her album Lonely Is the Night. The song’s greatest success, however, would come when it was chosen to be the title track of Celine Dion’s English debut album.Table of ContentsCeline Dion version[edit]Background and release[edit]Critical reception[edit]Commercial performance[edit]Music video[edit]Live performances[edit]Awards and accolades[edit]Track listings and formats[edit]Charts[edit]Weekly charts[edit]Year-end charts[edit]Credits and personnel[edit]Release history[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Celine Dion version[edit]Canadian singer Celine Dion covered “Unison” for her first English-language album of the same name (1990). The song was released by Columbia Records as the album’s second single in Canada on 9 July 1990. The next year, it was issued as the fourth single in Japan. Dion’s version was produced by Goldmark.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4After its release, “Unison” received positive reviews from music critics. It was nominated for the Juno Award for Dance Recording of the Year. The song peaked at number 38 in Canada and became a success on the Canadian Dance Chart topping it for seven weeks. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Robin Miller.Background and release[edit]In 1989, Dion recorded “Can’t Live with You, Can’t Live Without You,” a duet with Billy Newton-Davis included on his album, Spellbound. The track was produced by Andy Goldmark. At the same time, Dion was recording her first English-language album, Unison. Goldmark produced the title track, which was released as the second single in Canada on 9 July 1990. It was also issued as the fourth single in Japan on 4 November 1991. In the rest of the world, “Unison” was used as B-side to “The Last to Know” single.[1]For the single release, “Unison” was remixed by Kevin Unger. He created four remixes: Single Mix with Rap, Single Mix without Rap, Mainstream\/Extended Mix and Club Mix. Three of them feature rap by Frankie Fudge. Ruth Pointer can be heard on the background vocals. The remixes took weeks of pre-production with the ultimate goal of making the original album version into a dance pop track for both contemporary radios and club dance floors. The new versions took three days to mix at Toronto’s famed Metal Works Studios.Critical reception[edit]Chicago Tribune‘s Jan De Knock wrote: “Dion’s big voice invites comparisons to the power-pop stylings of Taylor Dayne and Laura Branigan (coincidentally, the disco-flavored title track “Unison” also appears on Branigan’s latest LP.)”[2]Commercial performance[edit]In Canada, “Unison” debuted on the charts in July 1990 and peaked at number 38 on The Record‘s Retail Singles Chart on 17 September 1990. It also peaked at number seven on the RPM Adult Contemporary Chart.Music video[edit]The music video for “Unison” was made for the Single Mix with rap by Frankie Fudge and released in July 1990. It was directed by Robin Miller. The person who appears in the video rapping, is not Fudge. The music video was later included on the Unison VHS.Live performances[edit]Dion performed “Unison” on a few Canadian television shows in 1990. She also sang it during her Unison Tour, Celine Dion in Concert, The Colour of My Love Tour, and also in the closing concert dubbed “Millenium Concert” of her Let’s Talk About Love World Tour. It was also performed as part of a medley with contestants of Star Acad\u00e9mie in 2009.  It was also a part of a medley in her 2018 tour and the final year of her Las Vegas residency show, Celine.Awards and accolades[edit]At the Juno Awards of 1991, “Unison” (Mainstream\/Extended Mix) was nominated for the Juno Award for Dance Recording of the Year but lost to “Don’t Wanna Fall in Love” (Knife Feel Good Mix) by Jane Child.[3] It was also voted the song of 1990 in Quebec (ahead of Madonna’s “Vogue”) on the NRJ radio network’s Le choix du Qu\u00e9bec. Arguably, the success of the remix was the springboard Sony Music Canada needed to garner the attention of its US parent company, leading to Dion’s release in the US market.Track listings and formats[edit]“Unison” (Single Mix) \u2013 4:03“Unison” (Single Mix without Rap) \u2013 4:03“Unison” (Single Mix) \u2013 4:03“Unison” (Single Mix without Rap) \u2013 4:03“Unison” (Mainstream \/ Extended Mix) \u2013 7:15“Unison” (Mainstream \/ Extended Mix) \u2013 7:15“Unison” (Club Mix) \u2013 7:26“Unison” (Single Mix) \u2013 4:03“D\u00e9livre-moi” \u2013 3:52“Can’t Live with You, Can’t Live Without You” \u2013 4:16“Unison” (Album Version) \u2013 4:12Charts[edit]Weekly charts[edit]Year-end charts[edit]Credits and personnel[edit]RecordingPersonnelCeline Dion\u00a0\u2013 lead vocalsAndy Goldmark\u00a0\u2013 songwriter, producer, arranger, drum programming, bass synth, keyboardsBruce Roberts\u00a0\u2013 songwriterPaul Pesco\u00a0\u2013 guitarsCharles Fearing\u00a0\u2013 guitarsJohn Barnes\u00a0\u2013 keyboards“Ready” Freddy Washington\u00a0\u2013 electric bassFonzi Thornton\u00a0\u2013 background vocalsBiti “Beat Box” Strauchn\u00a0\u2013 mouth percussionFran Manzella\u00a0\u2013 additional programmingDave Dachinger\u00a0\u2013 additional programming, engineerMike Brooks\u00a0\u2013 engineerJack Rouben\u00a0\u2013 engineerBob Rosa\u00a0\u2013 mixNorene Rill\u00a0\u2013 production coordinationKevin Unger\u00a0\u2013 additional producer (Remix only)Frankie Fudge\u00a0\u2013 rap (Remix only)Ruth Pointer\u00a0\u2013 background vocals (Remix only)Release history[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki\/unison-song-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Unison (song) – Wikipedia"}}]}]
