when did they film 2 MV for one song? For what songs?

Where Does My Heart Best Now: 3 MV
Je Sais Pas: 2 MV
All by Myself: 2 MV
I Want You To Need Me: 2 MV

But there are more examples.

I didn't know IWYTNM had 2 music videos...

I'd like some music videos too...like we had during the "Sans attendre" era

Yes! And apperently she didn't sign the contract til last second. She should do it for free and be glad for the huge amount of promotion it brings... so ignorant.

Instead it's Madonna promoting on Eurovision... and getting paid 1.3 million to do just that!


Celine: Time to start negotiating for next year.

Måns Zelmerlöf, former Eurovision winner, will release TWO singles tomorrow. Céline watch and learn.

Plus he announced it during today's Eurovion semifinal so now most of his market in Europe knows.

And no it's not off topic. It's a comparison of a nice and smart move.

Releasing two singles in one day is not a smart move, it more or less negates the chance of either of the songs having big success as people will be listening to both rather than focusing in on one released song, lessening streams etc.

And even if one does chart, the other is probably guaranteed to be forgotten.

And id hardly call someones career that started years ago but had no impact until 3 years ago someone that a legend should take notes from

Can't say I agree.
Is it good exposure? Sure.
Is it a smart move for Celine? Not necessarily.

Eurovision is the ultimate extreme of pop music kitsch. It's widely perceived as tacky / hilariously over the top. Which is precisely the sort of criticism that's plagued Celine for much of her career.
If she's trying to distance herself from that perception and be taken as a serious artist, staying away form Eurovision is a wise thing..

And I get a sense she's been trying to do just that for a while now. Judging from what she's said in various interviews, I don't think she'd want to relive the experience. When it comes up, she begrudgingly acknowledges it was an important / useful step in her career, but then quickly veers away from the subject. She has said she didn't particularly like the song nor the experience of participating.

She has had 30+ years to come back. She hasn't. And I don't think it's by accident. She's Eurovision's biggest success story that gets trotted out every year. I'm certain they've asked many times. If she hasn't shown up, it's probably because she doesn't want to.

Maybe 2 singles at once wouldn't be smart chartwise but nice for the fans.

And I really hope Céline isn't such a music snob as you tend to suggest, scielle.

Any Other Way has 2 MVs. WDMHBN had also two: the pseudolive one with Celine on stage and the black-and-white one. Water from the moon had also 2, if I remember correctly. Think Twice has a second pseudoMV, shown in a TV show, but it is unofficial MV. Je sais pas has also two. The second one can be found in the ONCP DVD.

yeah, apparently sad but true. Instead of sharing Celines talent and songs with the world, they present her greatest hits from 30 years ago, even though they have new songs for 4 new albums... I really don’t know what to say. Hold her new material back as long as you can and release it last minute before Christmas you morons. That’s the way to do it.... (sarcasm)

Personally I don't care if Eurovision is kitch, tacky or whatever. It's just the biggest music platform to promote your new music all over Europe and Australia!! Why not take this opportunity to do one performance (ONE!!!) to get all that exposure everywhere - and get paid to do it!! Hello, Team Celine it's free promo!!

[DionFanAlways]

Sigh......

Same ole, same ole.  On ne change pas; they follow To the end ..... lol

Oh well,  at least I’ll know all the words when we see her on carpool....... #positivity!

Maybe next Friday bois, or the one after it or the 5th Friday of 2043. Someday we will get the single #positivity, #somuchpositivity, #morepositivitythan5secsago.

[CSCfan]

We'll probably get the new single after they're done uploading all those backcatalogue songs to her YT....

[donpi86]

Hope is the last thing to loose... hahahaha WHAT IF.....

There is no Vegas show on May 20th (Corden) so they present as a surprise a snipett of the new single and then it is released on may 21th and she sings it on the show that night... hahaha

keep on dreaming... keep on dreaming....

well, that would be a great treat and a surprise with a bang! But knowing them it will never happen. Her team is just a bunch of morons. Sorry, but it’s true

[stevo]

They aren’t morons. In an ideal word she’d do everything and please everyone. But she can’t. And neither can her team. They will always have been able to handle things differently, there will always be things they could have done in another way and maybe better. They have had missed opportunities/silly decisions but also there are things Céline doesn’t want to do.

November is the album’s probable release month...so is May realistically likely for a new single? They have surprised us lots in the past few years. Nothing is ever good enough and all of us can’t be satisfied because we’re all a bunch of obsessive weirdos. Just chill and enjoy what’s to come. Céline is doing good. She is reborn and ready for it.

Her team of morons made an awkward kid from the middle of nowhere one of the biggest and longest-lasting pop stars on the planet. One who is, arguably, more relevant and more beloved than ever.
A team of morons with decades of experience in the business, headed up by a woman who's been at it for 4 decades, and knows what she wants.

And what is it, pray tell, do you do? That makes you such an expert?

Possibly because the albums coming out in November and its only May... maybe, just maybe people dont release first singles when theyre still stuck in a residency 6 months before their album is released

Well.. lead single from Charlie Puth's "Voicenotes" album (May 2018) was released in April... 2017 😇😏
so, Celine could easily release the lead single 6 months before the album 😉
Or even better, she could release just a promotional single (as Mariah did with "GTFO" before "With You" (the actual lead single of her "Caution" album)) 😋

When you're Celine Dion, believe me, you can release anything anytime you want... 😎

Well put! May doesn’t seem likely for a new single. However...July...July is another story. BST is where I’m thinking she’ll unveil some new material - maybe the more uptempo stuff since its an outdoor concert? The single may still not be released for a while a la LMBTL.

Mariah released GTFO as a hype single with zero promo that went nowhere, and still, GTFO only came out 2 or 3 months before the album.
