RLAAMJR. Posted January 11, 2008 at 10:35 AM Posted January 11, 2008 at 10:35 AM I have heard Celine state that she is not worried about the success of this album. That she is in it now more than ever, just to have fun. I think it is HILARIOUS that people think she would even care. Yeah, like every Thursday Celine and Rene Charles sit down at the computer to see the latest chart updates, and cries when her album has dropped a few spots like some of you do. Maybe if this was her first album she would pay a little bit more attention to that, but since Taking Chances is like her 455th album and she has sold over 700 million albums more than most artists I am sure she could give two rats if it sells or it doesn't. She could be dropped and loose her music career and you wouldn't see her complaining. Why? Because her music isn't her number one priority anymore. The sooner some people realize that the better. Also it is so hilarious that almost every comment is filled with negativity. This album is doing horrible, she could do so much better, this is not the comeback I wanted! Cry me a river people! This album actually isn't doing that bad, not to mention it has no pop hit. I will show you bad, look at Rihanna's album sales if you want to complain which total around 953,000 copies sold. I love Rihanna but Celine has almost been able to sell what she has without 3 huge multi-format hits. Get it in perspective people. This isn't 1999. Record sales are at an all time low, and Celine is holding up better than mosts artists are. We should be thankful Taking Chances isn't already off of the Billboard 200. i completely agree with what ur saying..some of the negative and ignorant things ppl say tick me off. Celine didn't need to make a new english album ,she already is one of the most successful singers in the world. She couldve just stopped after Vegas and done nothing. Shes set for life with everything she needs. She did this to have fun, and spend time traveling around the world with her family. Celine herself said that she doesnt need to prove herself to the world anymore. Shes done with that she wants to have fun. She loves what shes doing and no ones stopping her. She mainly did this for her fans, its not like she needs more money or success! Come on ppl, appreciate what Celine did! Taking Chances is a great album! "You Go Girl"!! i love u Celine and always will! <333 I don't want Celine to stop because I want her to become the best-selling female artist of all time. Syhe deserves to get that title especially that she has the most beautiful voice in the universe. Quote

Shamrock_1982 Posted January 11, 2008 at 05:28 PM Posted January 11, 2008 at 05:28 PM I hate to say it but sony seem more focused/interested in the album than they do on the singles, and the current and previous single is proof of that!! Quote

Shaun Posted January 11, 2008 at 09:16 PM Posted January 11, 2008 at 09:16 PM Suggests 3rd single will be with us in the UK around March then, although to be quite honest I'd be quite happy if they didn't bother if it's going to be a similar farce to "Eyes On Me."

Boy Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:19 PM Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:19 PM I really don't get why people MADLY CLAIM "Taking Chances" is a flop. What's sof lop about that? She has sold over 2 million copies of the album worldwide, no big hits came out recently, but she still has this numbers which are pretty NOT flop like... That's my point Quote Love comes to those who believe it...
ashie Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:21 PM Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:21 PM At least in my part of the world the album is holding up very well. By the end of the month its projected to have sold 150 000 copies in total (making it triple platinum). In February with the tour i'm guessing it will sell another 100 000 copies out here Quote
tal-sh2 Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:59 PM Posted January 12, 2008 at 01:59 PM WOW, I didn't knew that they're so much people love Celine in South Africa.That's great!

TAKING CHANCES sold more than 2M in just 2 months of its release without the benefit of a H U G E single. people are buying her album because the album belongs to a H U G E name CELINE DION. and 2M is a flop? in just 2 months? without a hit? to all those who claims the album is a flop, GET A LIFE!!! and what is a big success? SEAN KINGSTON (sold below 400,000) with the #1 single BEAUTIFUL GIRLS? JORDIN SPARKS with a huge single TATTOO? c'mon!!! Quote
