Sans Attendre / Encore Un Soir

NE-24.08.18 : 115-116


Like I said before, I'm afraid the new 2CD-set will kill Encore Un Soir chartwise. Though sales could be combined as there will be copies sold of EUS

[nuts2you]

I sure wish that we had numbers for her French material that has sold here in the states, Don't they think that us fans from the states buy her French material , Or how does that factor in the sales ,

[max24]

So, the box set of Encore Un Soir / Sans Attendre did kill the Encore un soir album chart run.
The box set climbed to a new peak at #79 (up 37 positions!)
The Encore un soir album fell to #244 (down 64 positions).

Maybe yes...but it’s a good way to sell more copies of EUS and SA ;-) and apparently it’s working.

Indeed, too bad the chart run of EUS is deeping but 2 years after the releade of EUS in a way it is a good opportunity to make new customers discover Sans Attendre as well. Actually I was thinking to offer the box to friends who like the EUS song but did not know about SA album.

I don't see the point to choose chart runs over number of copies sold.

What a murderer is Sony! They are selling 2 albums instead of one now...
Eus wouldn't never have got back to #79 anyway. Not even mentioning SA.
This combo is selling more copies of EUS AND SA. What is wrong?
Isn't it more important than EUS staying a few more weeks in the chart?

I don´t understand the problem here too. With the combo more people discover Encore un Soir and Sans Attendre, so more people know about Céline´s two newest french albums, then without the combo...

[Xpresso]

Not a bad move in my opinion. More sales. More money. More fans.

No Celine content, but for all you chart watchers, here is an interesting 10-min radio piece by Silvio Pietroluongo, SVP of charts and data development for Billboard, talking about the evolution of the Billboard Hot 100 and how it's determined.

As streaming is now important, here are infos regarding Celine's YouTube channel / music videos, with my comments. What is your opinion?

I see a pattern that the music videos for her biggest hits from the films are not here.
Could she have no rights to upload them?
This includes Beauty and the Beast, Because You Loved Me and My Heart Will Go On.
What a waste of views and profits from it.
And the uploaded I'm Alive music video is the version without the scenes from the movie.
On the other hand, for example When I Fall In Love is uploaded.

Also, many music videos are blocked in various countries.
I think most videos are blocked in Germany, and that's really weird, but also Japan and others.
I have included this info below.
Funny is, for example, that Next Plane Out was released in Australia only and the video is blocked in... Australia, lol

I really don't understand about that blocking thing. And it's really weird they never upload MHWGO original MV. Non fans never care for live performances, they want original MV.

Crazy how her songs TTWII, IA, ANDHC have more than 100 million views, while her 'hits' the oldies are still under that.

[Moleque20]

I didn't know where to write this, so I post it here. If the new album of Johnny Hallyday 'Mon pays c'est l'amour' continues to sell like crazy in France (~1.000.000 copies+streams during the first 3 weeks) and if we assume that people like to buy CDs for Xmas, the album may dethrone D'eux in a few months and become the most successful album in France. At least I expect that the following weeks till Christmas, it will sell ~100K/week or even more! I heard this morning on the french radio something about 2.000.000 copies already sold/streamed/played.

Like I said before, the French adoration for Johnny Holiday is insane


Céline is lonely at the top:
1  1995  Celine Dion  D'eux  Diamond  4,235,000

Half a million more than  Michael Jackson's Thriller.

I don't think he will be able to outsell D'eux. The last time a new album entered the best selling list was Stromae withRacine Carrée in 2013 with 2,065,000 sales, and that's only good for place 16 even though he was HUGE at that time.

I think Francis Cabrel's Sarbacane will have to fear falling out of the list tho. That's at 1,980,000 sales.

Edited by Davey84, 13 November 2018 - 07:08 AM.

[scielle]

Yeah, I too saw some article that said this Johnny record might dethrone D'eux - but then it concluded that no, in fact there's far too go and unlikely.

On a somewhat related note - I believe Ginette Reno had the best selling album in Canada last week - not bad for a 72-year-old francophone!

And this is interesting, about Andrea Bocelli's latest - https://www.rollings...b-ezrin-750995/

[Moleque20]

Johnny is not Stromae. He is a LEGEND, he is dead (that means that his company may take a further advantage of it, to pursue more sales by releasing special editions with new songs or never-released editions of his classic songs) and as you said, the french are OBSESSED with him!

It is likely that the album sells a lot until Christmas, but I would not bet it success continues after Christmas.

Let's see how it goes end of January.
