HEARTFELT TRIBUTE: Céline Dion has joined artists worldwide in honoring the first anniversary of the passing of British poet and songwriter Pete Sinfield, who died at age 80. Revered as the co-founder and visionary lyricist of King Crimson, Sinfield’s influence reached far beyond the world of progressive rock. His gift for storytelling shaped songs for some of the greatest voices in music, including Céline Dion, Cher, Cliff Richard, Leo Sayer, Five Star, and Bucks Fizz — each touched by his unmistakable poetic brilliance.
In a gentle, emotional remembrance, Céline reflected on the depth of his artistry, sharing: “Pete’s words carried beauty, truth, and emotion — he made every song a story, every lyric a heartbeat.” She expressed profound gratitude for the timeless beauty he brought into her own work, calling him “a poet who turned emotion into melody.”
As fans and fellow artists look back on Sinfield’s extraordinary legacy, Céline’s tribute serves as a tender reminder that although great writers may leave this world, their words continue to echo — shaping hearts, inspiring voices, and singing on through the generations.
