Before Celine Dion hit it big with My Heart Will Go On (Theme from Titanic) she had a huge hit with Think Twice. Ironically, the song, while not a major hit in the States, is her second biggest selling hit in the UK.
Think Twice established Celine as a major star in the UK. Despite having minor hits like Beauty & The Beast, The Power Of Love and If You Asked Me To, up till then Celine was best known as the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 1988 representing Switzerland with the song Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi ("Don't Leave Without Me").
The eagerly anticipated follow-up to Think Twice was the low-key but equally brilliant Only One Road taken off the album The Colour Of My Love. Again, the song was not a huge hit in the States, only reaching No. 93 in the Billboard Hot 100. In the UK, it fared much better, peaking at No. 8 although methinks it should have charted higher.
The song is one of my favourites. Celine's vocals rings clearly throughout the song and quivers with emotion. The arrangement, though much simpler than its predecessor, is amazing in its simplicity and the melody ... j'adore.
