Common,
Taking Chances album is out of the charts for the first time and nobody wants to talk about it

Well Max, I think we are already exhausted talking about "the album that everyone's been talking about"

[RLAAMJR.]

I am still interested talking about this album though.

I hope it'll continue to sell, though it sells very slow, very, very slow....


Where's the Live in las vegas DVD thread? I can't find it.

[max24]

Taking Chances did not re-enter the Billboard 200 this week. I still believe it can happen next week because Celine has 4 concerts in the current week and she will be on Oprah on Friday, singing Because you loved me in a duet. Fingers crossed.

If someone could post the charts next week, it would be great coz I'll be on vacations  

[boyblackuk]

I was in HMV today and seen that Madonnas album was available for £6, so I thought I would see what TC was, thinking it would be the same, I was shocked to find it was £16.....I was nearly sick. People just dont pay that for a Single Album anymore. Anyway, if they reduced the cost it may have got it back in the charts even at the high end

how can I buy Alone single?

I got my promo single on eBay, you can try and find another one there.

[anewdayhascome]

ok, i thought maybe they released normally finally:P

Celine Dion Taking Chances 3004000 3123280


3,000,000 is just not a success. But sound like a suscess for an album that doesn't really have a worldwide hit song. I do believe most people recognize the "Taking Chances" album by the song "Alone".

I think 3m is a success 'coz a few artists manage in selling more than 3m these days.

[anewdayhascome]

it's a huge success without good promotion! to be honest we had one single with one video... and that's it:(

With Alone?  Maybe in your country....  
And 3 M IS A SUCCESS nowadays! Check out the top selling albums and you'll see. Madonna and Mariah haven't even sold that many even with a hit song!!
Time to move forward to 2008 and realize what's happening in the music biz...

Alicia Keys and Leona Lewis did.

With how many hits, and how much promotion from the record company?

[RLAAMJR.]

Hmmm.... I think there was much promotion for the Taking Chances album.  There was Oprah show, advertisements, releasing the DVD, world tour concert, etc... It just didn't click. it''s not really because the promotion wasn't effective. I do believe that it has something to do with what single to release or perhaps the songs in Taking chances album are just not the type of songs most people would really be attracted to that they would buy the album. Or the music videos are not really that catchy.


I know the songs are good but are they great? hmmm... Are there really powerful songs in the album? All I know is that if there's gonna be at least one song that will really be a hit, I knwo Celine's album will sell more.


But the good thing somehow is that the album still managed to sell 3m despite of singles not really doing well on the charts. Thanks to the promotion. Without the world tour, I don't think TC album can reach 3million copies. maybe a little bit later.

BUt, it's not yet the end of counting the TC album sales.  

[Nmj]

I dissagree

come on! the album already sold 3M copies even before the tour starts.

[anewdayhascome]

Well there was a promotion at the beginning? but what after?
after TC nothing... Alone and Eyes one me were just songs played for a few times...
the promotion doesn't end before or after the launching the album it should be continued especially as the tour goes around the world

[rhaps]

i think, its also because TC Tour didn't contain much songs from the album itself..look, how many songs from TC are there on the setlist? i think her concert even contain more covers than her songs...hehehe PEACE!

[GoldenLeaf]

''These Are Special Times'' is back to the Top Holiday Albums at #30

http://www.billboard...a...=10/11/2008

[emi&celine]

Great news!
Still in the USA, All The Way jumps to #31 (+7) in the Catalog chart and the DVD stays at #8 in its 42nd week in total and 40th week inside the Top 10!

[Chula]

However, I don't think the TC album can be deemed 'flop' due to its 1m sales without much promotion.

[Myheartwillgoon-91]

I personally think 2008 is a success for Celine, ATW re-entered the charts all over the world, TATST started to re-enter to the charts. I'm happy for celine
