V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. The artist identifies this as a newly recorded 1999 single on the otherwise retrospective All the Way collection. The anthology year is not assigned to its older hits.

The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.

Celine Dion - All the Way original new-recording scope
The artist dates the collection to 1999 and explicitly distinguishes previously released hits from seven newly recorded songs. That's the Way It Is is the new first single; the compilation date is not assigned to its older repertoire.

My Love - explicitly named Celine single editions
The Sony anthology explicitly names It's All Coming Back to Me Now Radio Edit 1, The Power of Love Radio Edit, All by Myself Radio Edit and A New Day Has Come Radio Remix. It is used for edition labels and corroborating same-year preceding single fields, not as the originals' release year. Its inherited 1993 To Love You More field and uncertain Think Twice Live field are explicitly excluded.
