Mélanie is the sixth studio album by Canadian singer Celine Dion. Released in Quebec on 22 August 1984 through TBS and distributed by Trans‑Canada Disques, the album brought together an accomplished team of producers, including René Angélil, Eddy Marnay, Rudi Pascal, Paul Baillargeon and Marcel Lefebvre. The title track was dedicated to Dion's niece Karine, who died from cystic fibrosis, giving the album a deeply personal resonance. Mélanie topped the Quebec albums chart and was certified gold in Canada. At the 1985 Félix Awards, it earned Album of the Year and Best Selling Album of the Year, while its lead single, "Une colombe", became one of Dion's most celebrated early successes, reaching number two in Quebec, achieving gold certification, and winning Song of the Year and Best Selling Single of the Year.
