A New Day Has Come is an album by Canadian singer Céline Dion, which marked her return after two-year hiatus to have a child. It was released on March 22, 2002. A New Day Has Come is Dion’s 9th English album and 28th in total. The limited edition, containing bonus DVD with two audio and two video tracks, was released in November 2002. Six years later, in early 2008 the album was re-released as a collector’s edition, including the original CD and a bonus DVD with all videos and making of the album. At the same time A New Day Has Come was released in a new package as Let’s Talk About Love / Falling into You / A New Day Has Come 3CD set.

The album includes many highlights, like Dion’s renditions of Etta James classic, “At Last” and Nat King Cole’s “Nature Boy.”
Few French accents can be found here too, as Dion recorded “The Greatest Reward,” an adaptation of “L’envie d’aimer” from the French musical The Ten Commandments, performed originally by Daniel Lévi. The song was co-written by Pascal Obispo, a popular French singer and composer. Another track called “Ten Days” is an adaptation of a French hit song, “Tomber” by Gérald De Palmas. Dion recorded also Spanish version of “L’amour existe encore” from her 1991 Dion chante Plamondon album, called “Aún Existe Amor.”
The album included two successful singles: the title track and “I’m Alive,” featured also in the Stuart Little 2 movie. On “Goodbye’s (The Saddest Word),” released as last commercial single, Shania Twain did the background vocals. “At Last” was released as a radio single in the United States only.
“Super Love” was available as European/Australian/Asian bonus track only.

On April 7, 2002, CBS aired one-hour TV special dedicated to A New Day Has Come. Beside songs from the album, Dion performed two duets: “Emotion/When the Wrong One Loves You Right” with Destiny’s Child and “Beauty and the Beast” with Brian McKnight.
A New Day Has Come was very successful, debuting at number 1 in over twenty countries and selling 10 million copies. The IFPI announced that it was the fifth best selling album worldwide in 2002.

In the United States, A New Day Has Come debuted at number 1, selling 558,000 copies in its first week; it was Dion’s first number 1 debut, and her fourth number 1 overall. In the following week, A New Day Has Come sold 263,000 copies and slipped to number 2. To date, the album has sold 3.3 million copies in the United States and is certified 3x platinum. In Canada, it sold 152,000 copies in the first week and stayed at number 1 for seven consecutive weeks. It has been certified 6x platinum for 600,000 copies sold.
