I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, she needs to hire the Titanique social media manager, because they’re doing far better PR for her than Team Celine ever has. Like this one, from earlier today - https://www.instagra...jUzeXJ4dHVkY3Jv

Some of the facts are a little exaggerated here though lol

I am feeling such embarrassment for TeamCeline posting that the celebrations of TCOML end with the video of 'Only One Road' in HD!   

They are so out of touch with reality - HD videos on her VEVO account should have been a given upon release! To celebrate the album we should receive actual bonuses!

I completely agree… It’s such a shame what they’re doing. Even the celebration of #FallingIntoYou25 was better than this. As pointed before, remixes for “Misled”, video footage from the recording sessions (they were filmed), footage from the Montreal concert 1994…

Not uploading the various remixes of "Misled" to her YouTube channel during the anniversary was absolutely dumb.

True there is so much already physically released stuff they could upload on the different platforms that could generate some more streams 🫥

I don’t understand the problems here. 🤔 Isn’t it already copyrighted proofed? There would still be contractual stuff to be done with the remixers from that time?

It may not have generated billions of streams but at least it would have interested some fans. 🙋🏻‍♂️

Indeed! They do a good job keeping things fresh and interesting, with some humour, which fits the Céline brand 🙂

Not quite yet but very close!

“The Colour of My Love” hit number 1 on the album charts on 22nd January 1995 whilst “Think Twice” hit number 1 on the singles chart on 29th January 1995.

The rest, as they say, is history.

Man...in my head I picture a gorgeous box set using the teal-color that was used for the logo and such amazing footage of this era.
Why is there no effort when it comes to Céline's impeccable legacy?

A clip of the recording session for “Misled” is shown during the TCOML special from Metropolis. Do you guys think that the entire session was filmed?

I can’t even begin to imagine how many things they have filmed and recorded just to keep them for themselves…

I've lost track, but I recall seeing short clips of recording sessions from multiple albums across numerous TV specials here and there. I'd bet for D'eux and TCOML especially they have a ton of stuff we haven't seen.

And if her team doesn't, sometimes film crews for channels were present. That was the case for Unison too.

Fact about the title track, David Foster wrote the song for her wife of the time Linda Thompson (the ex of Elvis Presley) and he wanted to keop it for him only originally. Everybody wanted this song when David listen the songs to Barbra Strainsand or others peoples, but he never wanted to give this song for others peoples. But when Celine hear the first time the song in 1992, he said to David: ''This was my story with Rene and i wanted to recording this song and dedicated this song to him''. Because of that reason, he accept to give the song for her and this was the song she declare publicly her love with René.

Something I never understood is that the official sheet music of the song says that it's taken from a musical called "Scream".
Does anyone know something about this ?

[PuraVida]

I forget where I read this, maybe on the forum: someone remarked how the track "Misled" is unique on this album in that it's an anti-love song. Unlike the other tracks (and unlike most of Celine's career discography) it's not a song that paints a romantic vision of love, of positive yearning, of a love story working out.

Instead, it's independent Celine who's onto the next one

And then immediately after, begging someone to think twice 😂

It was probably as simple as the song was presented to her and they liked it so they put it on the album because they needed some more up-tempo songs

Why doesn't Sony UK celebrate Celine's success with TCOML/TT? I don't get it.
Fingers crossed for a proper D'eux celebration this year. Come on Sony France!

Thank you for this article link! I knew the story, but never heard Warren’s take on it. He did have a lovely voice, and his rendition is beautiful.

''Refuse To Dance'' is another anti-love song.

OMG I completely forgot that was him on that song!!!!

[Abodi2002]

Speaking of Refuse To Dance, what is Celine singing in the first 3 seconds of the song? Is it even words at all? Found a new appreciation for that song since I've been listening to a lot of the 2017 tour in recent days.

The song starts with an ad lib, like 'Oooooh, heeeeyeaaah", a violin solo, then the first chorus goes:

Got your invitation to the dance
"Wear your party dress"
Maybe I was just an innocent
But I confess
I never even knew the song
The orchestra was playing

So yeah, there are no words sung at the start of the song.

It was really cool that she sang this song again in 2017 Bringing this song, TCOML and Misled (unfortunately only 1 night), makes me think Céline listened to this album again after René passed...
