Well yeah, he's right....Greatest Hits albums are usually targeted for non-fans, the 'general audience'.... most of the times they're released in the X-mas period (if the artist has no new album out). And usually they sell quite well..... look at ATW now, it's even selling better than TC in some countries!

Well, I know I would kill for a quind of album just like Sarah McLachlan's. A compilation of rarities, B-sides, remixes, live performances and hits.So, having this coincept in mind, my selection would be:

1- My love (live)
2- Eyes on me (feat.Will.I.Am)
3- If I can dream (duet with Elvis Presley)
4- I'm alive (remix)
5-I drove all night
6-Let me be your soldier
7-Sabes como es el amor (for Latin America - Spain)
7-L'amour existe encore  - English version - (for Europe and the US
8-The prayer (live duet with Josh Groban)
9-Here, there & everywhere
10-Have you ever been in love
11-A new day has come
12-Taking chances (remix)
13-Alone (live)
14-I knew I loved you
15-Emotions/When the wrong one loves you right (duet with Destiny's child)
16-New song

That would be worth buying for me

Wow, you kinda just read my mind. In fact, I was daydreaming about an album like that for a while, some sort of a "Celine Revisited" album, or something
I'm not sure if I agree 100% with your tracklisting (I'll post my own later) but the idea is extremely appealing.

Very nice Sayeed. Not sure I agree with your tracklist but your artwork is stunning. Good job.

[grobandion]

So, I vote for a kind of album just like celineargento said, a B-sides, rarities, remixes, live versions hits and more

OK, here's my tracklisting for that kind of album (not in any particular order):

1.Have you ever been in love
2.I drove all night
3.A new day has come
4.I'm alive
5.Taking chances (some good remix)
6.Sabes como es el amor (I just pray for that song to be released)
7.The prayer (Celine and Josh Groban)
8.If I can dream (duet with Elvis Presley)
9.I surrender
10.My love (live version from this world tour)
11.Eyes on me (feat. Will.I.Am)
12.Think twice (live)
13.Show must go on (live version or new studio version)
14.Where does my heart beat now
15.Something (live from the TJTWIM CBS special)
16.New track

If she could re-record her "old" tracks, with different arrangements, that'll be awesome. Maybe she could have special guests on them too

saludos

Yea just look at Cher and Whitney Houston... Best Ofs and Greatest Hits every other year... Great to see Céline is getting in line with has beens who desperatly tries to remain in the spot light by milking their old hits rather than reventing themselves.  

No one is with me on having the wonderful I've Got The Music In Me on this best of?! She made it superbly on tour, too bad it said adios, there are lots of other songs I'd like to see excluded before this one...

Just wondering what good is this survey, if Sony has ceased "promoting" Celine as a precious artist. We can not probably bring back the good old days of Falling Into You or Let's Talk About Love, but at the rate things are going, Sony is not even showing any signs of renewed faith or interest to promote Celine the way she deserves to be marketed.  In short, people at Sony do what they want anyways so 'makes me really think why we even bother. Just an opinion...

I have finally thought through what I want the album to be like for it to be interesting enough for me to buy, yet essential for those who want a greatest hits + reasonable.

The concept: As a follow up to her latest GH All The Way... A Decade of Song, complementing the tracks which were missed on it (ignoring TCS vol 1) plus adding hits from 2002 to date. The album should be seen as a "all the way the sequal" plus songs that didn't make it on there plus great tracks since. Plus wrapping it all in Céline style with a "personal touch" presenting the album as a compilation of what Celine Dion stands for (therefor the need of a tracklist with a wide perspective, one song from Miracle needed coz of that - I choose MPO simply coz that's the highest quality track of the album a masterpiece, could be exchanged for In Some Small Way). Title: I've Got The Music In Me - Two Decades of Song. This making the way for "special" boxes also featuring ATW.

Because of the concept explained above, I wont include tracks such as MHWGO,BYLM,IACBTMN and TTWII, since they already are on ATW.

The 16 track limit has forced me to exlude these dear tracks: Eyes On Me, Calling You (live), Next Plane Out, Reveal, Call The Man, The Reason, If I Can Dream, Seduces Me, Us, Sorry For Love (02 version), Just Walk Away, Everybody's Talking My Baby Down, Only One Road

My idea is to release it as two different versions (as with ATW) and this to contemplate the tracks being on one version of ATW and missed on the other. (I and TT missed on US version, LCMM and IYAMT missed on European version).

Here it goes:

I’ve Got The Music In Me - Two Decades of Song - US version

1. All By Myself

2. Immortality

3. I’m Alive (Taking Chances Tour remix)

4. A New Day Has Come (radio remix)

5. Think Twice

6. I Surrender

7. I’ve Got The Music In Me (studio track)

8. Unison (single remix)

9. Ain’t Gonna Look The Other Way

10. I Drove All Night

11. Taking Chances

12. That’s Just The Woman In Me

13. Refuse To Dance

14. My Precious One

15. Have You Ever Been In Love

16. The Prayer (duet with Andrea Bocelli)  



I’ve Got The Music In Me - Two Decades of Song - EU version

1. All By Myself

2. Love Can Move Mountains

3. I’m Alive (Taking Chances Tour remix)

4. A New Day Has Come (radio remix)

5. If You Asked Me To

6. I Surrender

7. I’ve Got The Music In Me (studio track)

8. Unison (single remix)

9. Ain’t Gonna Look The Other Way

10. I Drove All Night

11. Taking Chances

12. That’s Just The Woman In Me

13. Refuse To Dance

14. My Precious One

15. Have You Ever Been In Love

16. The Prayer (duet with Andrea Bocelli)


I decided it being nessesary to include tracks like Ain't Gonna Look The Other Way and The Prayer in order to "reclaim" these as Céline hits. Other artists have covered these tracks after Céline recorded them and therefor making Céline's versions fall into oblivion. Just Walk Away should had been on there for that reason too but I didn't find space for it.

I really like this Idea.... I would relplace RTD though somehow.

ATW was a combination of her hits with the new songs she recorded. at least with that we got new material. GH's????????? what's that?????   ????????? i'm sure a lot of people have the albums, if they liked a particular song at the time of the album release, i'm sure they would have bought it. i don't think there is need to target "non-fans". if they haven't bought any of the other albums they sure as hell ain't going to be buying GH's. the record companies really must be getting desperate to think that they can put out a GH's of an artist. i might as well put all my albums in the player and hit auto replay. that's how exciting this project is.

[emi&celine]

Anyway, no TPOL, BYLM, IACBTMN, MHWGO, TT, WDMHBN or ABM anymore. It would be bad for Celine if her 90's hits were on this greatest hits albums. People would keep thinking Céline is a 90's singer and nothing else. This Greatest Hits albums need tracks from the years 2001/2002 to 2008/2009 to prove Céline is still recording new songs.

Coz its a mistake to release now a GH if its only going to include all the same tracks as All The Way Its just stupid, because people already can buy All The Way to listen those songs, and wont stand another Céline album that shows once again the same songs.

That's why I would say that a TCSV.2 is the best option

[amelie]

  it can have  5 tracks that are already on All the way like BYLM, MHWGO, IACBTM, TPOL, TTWII, other old hits that are not on ATW, new hits ANDHC, IA, IDAN, TC and 2-3 new songs that weren't released as singles or rare tracks and a nice new track maybe. AND not everyone on this planet has ATW, that was 9 years ago. there must be ppl out there who can discover Celine through this compilation. Only fans would buy TCSV.2 and the 1st one was quite embarrising having 3 rare tracks or so

Maybe Céline could have had more success these past 8 years if she had given the chance to other songs in her career that have never been sung, instead of singing the same collection of hits everywhere Who knows?

I mean she needs to renew herself! I don't think she could survive much more if she keeps singing TPOL, IACBTMN and BYLM everywhere (that isn't "taking chances")

Ummm... Okay, I know that, most likely, none of these track listings you guys are offering, will make it as the final thing on a new Celine Dion compilation, but what I've noticed is that you're all asking for the same songs, as in the same with each other, but also the same songs that were included on All The Way... in 1999 and The Collector's Series Volume One in 2000. I'm familiar with the fact that "The Power of Love", "Think Twice", "Because You Loved Me" and "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" as well as "My Heart Will Go On" are Celine's signature songs. But still, shouldn't we be asking for songs that have not been released on a previous compilation? And another little note, I've noticed that some people are actually adding songs on their lists that haven't even been released as any form of single (physical, radio, or digital); I'd understand if these songs were rare or unreleased, but they're not. They're just random songs.

I'm sorry if I come off as snobbish or rude, I would like to clarify that that is not my purpose. This message is not meant as a lecture or a complaint, but for of a general and personal notice.

[CSCfan]

Well if you noticed....Sony asked for her greatest HITS.. And the songs you just mentioned are her [greatest] hits, hence why they've been posted. Believe me, if it's the fan's choice, none of those songs would be on it, but it isn't and it isn't a 'fan album'..
