I shall review this. Schwede 66 18:26, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is an interesting article that is well written. New in mainspace. Plenty long enough and suitably referenced. Neutral. Earwig is happy. The hook is interesting and sourced. The image is a square crop of the one used in the article and that meets criteria. It's an interesting image that is suitable for the lead hook. The only thing that surprised me when reading the article and hook is that the singer's name does not redirect to Céline Dion but that's not an issue for this nomination. Nominator has four credits so this is their last nomination where no QPQ is needed. It's all good to go; no tweaks needed (it's been a long time since I've had a clean first round review – well done!). Schwede 66 18:49, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
