And please don't compare "Blackout" to "Taking Chances." That is trash (Britney) versus talent and class (Celine).simple... i adore britney spears. celine is my life, that's it. any problem with that? I also like Britney Spears. She really dances well. My ybro (younger brother) likes her very much. Quote

cannonball Posted January 16, 2008 at 05:01 PM Posted January 16, 2008 at 05:01 PM A good album? ''Blackout'' sold so far 1.4M worldwide while ''Taking Chances'' sold 2.3M Right, because the only measure of whether an album is good or not is how many copies it sells....cant believe im reading this. I TOTALLY DISAGREE... there are so many great albums that didnt sell well. britney's album is not doing quite well because of her personal life. but blackout is a solid album. im done. Maybe you didn't catch it, but my post was sarcasm, so really you're not disagreeing with me at all Quote http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/venusunfolding/100_3663.jpg3/14/07 - The Celine concert that almost was

Shaun Posted January 16, 2008 at 11:24 PM Posted January 16, 2008 at 11:24 PM Is anyone at Sony paying attention to any of this? After 3 months the album is nowhere in any charts across the world, with the possible exception of Canada! It is dropping everywhere and fast. What are they doing about it?

stillwater Posted January 17, 2008 at 02:27 AM Posted January 17, 2008 at 02:27 AM I give up on Sony!!! Maybe it's high time for Celine to weigh her options...and switch labels! Not meaning to compare Celine with any one, but hers and Alicia Keys' album came out the same exact day in November. Look where Alicia's record is..regaining the no. 1 slot in the Billboards charts. And where's Celine's?? Really quite disgusted the way Sony is treating her!!! Is anyone at Sony paying attention to any of this? After 3 months the album is nowhere in any charts across the world, with the possible exception of Canada! It is dropping everywhere and fast. What are they doing about it? Quote

And where's Celine's?? Really quite disgusted the way Sony is treating her!!!That's what I'm trying to say for a long time. Sony doesn't give a s*** for Celine anymore. People can still say that it's Celine/Rene fault's too, but she tried to make a good promotion. And Sony? Pffff... Here in Brazil de music video was NEVER given to the TV channels. That's ridiculous.

stillwater Posted January 17, 2008 at 02:59 AM Posted January 17, 2008 at 02:59 AM Like, we're talking 3 consecutive albums with so-so sales here!! Wouldn't that be enough reasons for Celine to start thinking things over and entertain record offers somewhere??? That's what I'm trying to say for a long time.

Kyle_Jared Posted January 17, 2008 at 03:11 AM Posted January 17, 2008 at 03:11 AM And when in the hell are they gonna make another video to promote the album...*supposedly* alone is the new single in Europe now for weeks.......yet no video or no real promo for it......and the album is sinking......technically with a new single an album rises! The tour will NOT generate that much in sales increases......tours don't anymore. You need hit singles. WITH HEAVY Promo-related videos. The rolling stones tour every year, their new albums dont sell.......Madonna's last 'confessions' album didnt generate any real hit singles in the US, but she toured very heavily in America. Quote

isurrender Posted January 17, 2008 at 09:21 AM Posted January 17, 2008 at 09:21 AM Well, according to me, everybody is guilty: Sony, of course : they have stopped promotion ...not even after 2 months! I still can see tv ads for albums released a year ago here! that's a shame. Moreover, they don't think to release a second track while the album is dropping everywhere. René: he doesn't do anything to change things with Sony Radio : without their support, we can"t have a hit and as they don't want to play Céline , it will be very hard! Heren, that's not sony's fault. Quote

TAKING CHANCES SOLD MORE THAN 2M COPIES IN 2 MONTHS WITHOUT A SINGLE HIT. NOW TELL US, WAS THAT YOU CONSIDER A FLOP??? Exactly what I think. I also think that the album will sell more with the tour. gving it a try, I would say that the album will reach over 6 million copies wordwide. And that's a good number. For those who think Celine will ever sell over 15 million again, just one thing: That's an illusion. It's damn seldom to see an artist sell over that number nowadays. Market has changed a lot and I guess most of you have realized that... For sure I want Celine selling as more she can and being #1 in every single chart, but it's not possible to be ALWAYS at #1 and sell over 300k each week. Quote AMO CÉLINE CADA VEZ MAIS!!!

NOW TELL US, WAS THAT YOU CONSIDER A FLOP??? yes..... but they can't squeeze 2 million albums out of Celine every time she releases something without doing anything. these two million albums are Fans work. Do u think any of my friends would know of TCH if I were not a fan? nope! I'm sure she would do better with another label!. For SONY she's doing fine.... maybe she would do INCREDIBLY with Warner etc. Quote https://soundcloud.com/finnremixes
