Thank you again, Wayne, for these numbers! I truly appreciate the effort that goes into this! One quick note though, didn't Loved Me Back To Life also have 1 million streams per track? Unless Open Arms is included on one of the international editions, I can't see it from my US Spotify account though. Encore Un Soir is close too, since only Ma Force from the Deluxe Edition hasn't reached 1 million either.

Yep, I assign them to the relevant studio album (so if there's an international version, or an enhanced version such as an anniversary version, they are together).

If you remove the "bonus" or "special" tracks, the following studio albums are also at 1m+ apiece, D'eux does pretty well - with all tracks over 1m.

Oh okay, I figured as much. How many streams does Open Arms have? It doesn’t show up in the U.S. unfortunately.

Celine Dion - Spotify Stats (November)

The stats will be presented the same as last month, in that rather than presenting duplicated tracks both individually and combined, I will simply present them as one combined track (except remixes - they will continue to be presented separately). Similarly, in instances where there are duplicated tracks, assigned to multiple albums, I have instead opted to assign them to the relevant parent studio album (for e.g. the two versions of My Heart Will Go On are both counted towards Let's Talk About Love streams, the two versions of The Power of Love are assigned to The Colour of My Love).

Total Overall Streams: 1,278,625,859 (+3.3%)
Total Monthly Listeners: 8,254,237 (+19.5%)

* The November streams figure climbs to 41,643,843 - the largest monthly figure since we started tracking these numbers in May, largely driven by These Are Special Times and the approaching Christmas season!
* In all, 64 tracks are above the 100,000 streams mark - an increase of 14 on last month (and again, largely driven by These Are Special Times).
* In October, the These Are Special Times streams count stood at 1,709,189 - in November, that number climbed a whopping 255.4% (increasing by 4,366,251 streams) reaching 6,075,440 streams for the month. In all, the album has a total of 121,543,208 streams and it remains her third highest streamed album. Let's wait to see what we get from the album in December, I predict a monster month!

She is currently the 302sd most streamed artist on Spotify.

You can see her position on her Spotify page.

In other words, that's pretty bad. And as mentionned above, this is mostly driven  by TAST. She is usually closer to the 400th position.

Comparison should be made with other artists of her generation of course.

It's pretty much like saying Céline sold more tapes than Drake.

[wjd]

In any other month than November or December (for obvious reasons), she outstreams Mariah.

I think she's on par with Madonna and Whitney, and they're all significantly ahead of Janet.

Those are the women she should be compared to.

[Bruno Portugal]

Someone updated Celine's Wikepedia page. There's a "new" photo from 2000 and now it says that she have sold more than 200 million albums. WTF????
The last time I visited that same page the photo was from 2017 and it mentioned 250 million albums.

She has reached over 9.1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, which if I’m not mistaken, is the most she’s ever had? I’m hoping she’ll at least reach 10 million by the end of the month, maybe even 11 or 12 too!

I thought it interesting to do a comparison with These Are Special Times, December to date:

These Are Special Times

01. Happy Xmas (War Is Over) - 2,139,259
02. The Prayer - 411,543
03. O Holy Night - 265,230

14. Brahms' Lullaby (Christmas Version) - 52,345
15. These Are Special Times - 50,148
16. Les Cloches du Hameau - 33,569

TAST total (Dec so far): 3,974,577
Monthly Listeners: 9,678,586 (+1,424,349)

Happy Xmas (War Is Over) has clearly become her definitive Christmas song - its daily streams have now increased to over 400,000 (with yesterday at 401k) - might this song reach the 10 million mark by the end of December? If it only stays at 400,000 streams per day until Christmas Day, it will add a minimum of 6.4 million more to its December total.

How does all this streaming stuff work / factor into album sales for an artist?

I listen to my music on Amazon Prime & on YouTube. Do those streams count / factor in?

I feel old. 🤓

Very insightful and interesting.

Just wondering: are the views decreasing ?

Based on the above figures, the monthly views between 1/09/14 and 31/12/17 would be 160,75 millions whereas on the first 11 months of '18, the monthly views would be 91,81 millions. Odd, knowing that in 2018 Ashes video was released

Happy Xmas (War Is Over) has clearly become her definitive Christmas song - its daily streams have now increased to over 400,000 (with yesterday at 401k) - might this song reach the 10 million mark by the end of December? If it only stays at 400,000 streams per day until Christmas Day, it will add a minimum of 6.4 million more to its December total.

Its gonna hit 10m at the end of Dec

Thanks.

Very insightful and interesting.

Just wondering: are the views decreasing ?

Based on the above figures, the monthly views between 1/09/14 and 31/12/17 would be 160,75 millions whereas on the first 11 months of '18, the monthly views would be 91,81 millions. Odd, knowing that in 2018 Ashes video was released

It's because, this year, Youtube change the insight page. So, last month they start to get the views again, probably in a few months It will be correct again.

i have a question for you... When you download an album on Spotify, does it count in the numbers if you listen to that versus to online?
