Faith Hill "There You'll Be"

Celine Dion reportedly didn't want to be known as the woman who sang all the tearjerker ballads in movies. She passed on the ballad "There You'll Be", a song destined for the Pearl Harbor Soundtrack. Along came Faith Hill who happily took the song and turned it into a #1 hit on the Adult Contemporary Chart in 2001.

Eric Carmen - "All By Myself"

Eric Carmen took the haunting tear-jerker "All By Myself" all the way to #6 on the Adult Contemporary Chart in 1976, but it was Celine Dion who buoyed the song to the #1 spot during the winter of 1997.  After the loss of her husband Rene Angelil in 2016, Celine returned to the stage in Las Vegas and performed "All By Myself".  There wasn't a dry eye in the house.
