Before 1988, Celine Dion was an unknown French speaking Canadian with big dreams of boasting her immense vocal abilities, a singing voice that many today would regard as one of the best on earth.
What many people often forget is that the singer, who used to be without a word of English, was launched to international stardom from the RDS in Dublin.
In 1988, a 20 year old Canadian singer took to the stage in Dublin to represent Switzerland in the Eurovision Song Contest. The starlet showed off her unique and powerful vocal ability with Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi (Don't Leave Without Me), turning that year's competition into one of the most tense in the show's history with Celine beating out UK favourite Scott Fitzgerald, who many assumed would walk away with first place.
