Celine Dion "I'm Alive" (A New Day Has Come 2002)

"I'm Alive" is a song recorded by Canadian recording artist Celine Dion for her sixth English-language album "A New Day Has Come" (2002) . It was released as the album's second single on August 12, 2002 and was also featured in the film Stuart Little 2. The song was written and produced by Kristian Lundin and Andreas Carlsson, who already worked with Celine Dion 

in 1999 on "That's the Way It Is". 

"I'm Alive" is an uplifting midtempo song, where Celine declares she is alive, fulfilled as a mother, and "in love". The music video was directed by Dave Meyers between May 24–25, 2002 and premiered in June 2002. There were two versions made: with or without the Stuart Little 2 movie scenes. "I'm Alive" became a worldwide hit, hitting top 10 in many countries. It was certified platinum in Belgium (50,000) and gold in France (250,000).

"I couldn't wait to go back into the recording studio. And, I loved the songs that people wrote for me on this album. Those songs became even closer to me because, the fact that I took two years off, they wrote songs for me that were even closer to my emotions. I had things to talk about. I had things to sing about. It was a fun adventure, no pressure, relaxed, smooth, powerful but controlled. I really had a wonderful time. And to see my friends again, it was great."- Celine Dion commented .

"I'm Alive" was released as the album's second single on August 12, 2002. For radio release, the song was slightly re-worked by Humberto Gatica. Epic Records moved forward with the "Humberto Gatica" version as the main version. His version was released on the Stuart Little 2 soundtrack as well as promotional and commercial CD singles.

I'm Alive

When you call on me 

When I hear you 

Breathe 

I get wings to fly 

I feel that I'm alive 

When you look at me 

I can touch the sky 

I know that I'm alive 

When you bless 

The day 

I just drift away 

All my worries die 

I'm glad that I'm 

Alive 

You've set my heart 

On fire 

Filled me with love 

Made me a woman on 

Clouds above 

I couldn't get 

Much higher 

My spirit takes flight 

'Cause I am alive 

When you call on me 

When I hear you 

Breathe 

I get wings to fly 

I feel that I'm alive 

When you reach 

For me 

Raising spirits high 

God knows that 

That I'll be the one 

Standing by 

Through good and 

Through 

Trying times 

And it's only begun 

I can't wait for the 

Rest of my life 

When you call on me 

When you reach 

For me 

I get wings to fly 

I feel that 

When you bless 

The day 

I just drift away 

All my worries die 

I know that I'm alive 

I get 

Wings to fly 

God knows that I'm 

Alive
