Amazing. Not only is Celine Dion pissed that Dampnut and J. Divans are misusing her music, she’s baffled by them misusing that particular song. And, really, she’s not wrong, it’s a thoroughly wrong song for any political campaign, it’s a big romantic number about an old person looking back at a long-ago love; it’s not something you can really make a political message out of… I mean, “Don’t Stop” by Fleetwood Mac is a song about Christine McVie moving on from John McVie (who, hilariously, didn’t realise until years later the song was about him), but Bill Clinton’s campaign back in ’92 correctly recognised it had potential for messaging, which, frankly, “My Heart Will Go On” doesn’t. Oh Trump, you’re surrounded by idiots… but you don’t deserve any better.
