The Early Singles is a French-language compilation album by Canadian singer Celine Dion, released in selected European countries in 2000. It includes 19 songs recorded between 1981 and 1988, among them tracks from Dion's debut album, "Ce n'était qu'un rêve" and "L'amour viendra". The compilation also contains the Eurovision-winning song "Ne partez pas sans moi" and its instrumental version.
The Early Singles includes all the singles and their B-sides released in France in the 1980s, except for "Incognito" and the 12-inch version of "Je ne veux pas". After numerous compilations of Dion's early French-language recordings, The Early Singles became the first to include "Ce n'était qu'un rêve", "L'amour viendra", and the instrumental version of "Ne partez pas sans moi". The album was later reissued as Les hits.
