Eyes on Me (Celine Dion song)
"Eyes on Me" is a song recorded by Canadian recording artist Celine Dion, taken from her ninth English studio album Taking Chances (2007). It was released as the second single in the United Kingdom on January 7, 2008. While "Alone" was released as the second single in the rest of Europe and North America instead.
The Middle Eastern-flavored song was written by Kristian Lundin, Savan Kotecha and Australian singer Delta Goodrem. Goodrem also provides backing vocals on the track, while production was handled by Lundin. The latter worked with Dion in the past on "That's the Way It Is" and "I'm Alive" among others. The critics heavily compared the track to Shakira songs.
Dion performed the song during An Audience with Celine Dion, which aired in the UK on ITV on December 22, 2007. She also performed a remix version featuring will.i.am from The Black Eyed Peas during her CBS special, That's Just the Woman in Me, which aired in the US on February 15, 2008.
"Eyes on Me" was released in the UK with virtually no promotion surrounding it in the media, leading to its peak position at number 113 on the UK Singles Chart. The music video for "Eyes on Me" was released on May 5, 2008, containing footages from the Taking Chances World Tour in Africa and Asia.

Single
The song was released as a CD single in Japan on February 24, 1999. It was the first song in video game history to win an award at the 14th Annual Japan Gold Disc Awards, where it won "Song of the Year (Western Music)" in 2000.
It sold over 500,000 copies, placing it as the best-selling video game music disc ever released in Japan until the release of "Hikari" by Utada Hikaru for Kingdom Hearts.
The B-side was a ballad, "Red Beans" (simplified Chinese: 红豆; traditional Chinese: 紅豆; pinyin: hóng dòu), composed by Jim Lau with Mandarin lyrics by Lin Xi. The Japanese title for it was "Akashia no Mi" (アカシアの実, "Acacia Seeds"). It had been included in Faye Wong's 1998 album Chang You, along with a Cantonese version "Repayment" (simplified Chinese: 偿还; traditional Chinese: 償還; Jyutping: seung4 waan4), and was popular in its own right.
