nystrele Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:36 PM Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:36 PM (edited) Greetings Celine cats-I hope I'm not breaking the rules by posting a side topic on the ALONE post, but thought I'd share a jpeg of the promo single issued by Sony. Enjoy.Cheers-=Chuck= P.S. The date March 12 printed on the back label is when the disc was pressed--it has nothing to do with the radio add date. That I haven't been told yet. In a previous post, there was discussion about the Billboard review that I will write for this single. It is now written. It ain't real pretty. In no way do I diss Celine's performance, but I do seriously question Sony's motivation. I need to hold it until they announce the release date to radio, but I will post it here once it's published. So sorry, I didn't mean to post it three times -- I don't know what I'm doing here! Edited April 3, 2008 at 11:28 PM by Koolan fixed attachment Quote
nystrele Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:51 PM Author Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:51 PM AND here's another little tidbit for you. When I wrote the article about "A New Day Has Come," they sent me a sampler of tracks... notice that "Coulda Woulda Shoulda" was originally slated for the disc! I had a wonderfully rare track... that is, until they repurposed it for "One Heart." Still, fun to see the gears of the Sony machine at work, huh? Quote
OnlyCeline Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:57 PM Posted April 3, 2008 at 10:57 PM Thanx Chuck! But "Alone" as a single is a BIG JOKE! Quote http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/9860/ggxz9.jpg
MrTim212 Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:02 PM Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:02 PM Thanks for the scan, Chuck. It's also interesting that they list "Sorry For Love" with (Dance Version) as a subtitle...... I guess the original version is the "2003 Version" that later appeared on "One Heart." Always cool to see rare stuff like this. And hopefully Sony listens to your critique. Yes, I think we all question their motivation on releasing this single...... Quote je me changerai en or pour que tu m'aimes encore
Giancarlo_vadala Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:06 PM Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:06 PM Hi Chuck, thanks for these pictures! By "Surrender" they meant "I surrender", uh? Quote Merci Monsieur Angélil pour tout ce que vous avez fait, pour l'avoir aimée jusqu'au bout. Aujourd'hui on sait que Céline n'est pas vraiment Céline sans vous.
nystrele Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:07 PM Author Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:07 PM Hi Mr. Tim -- Actually, when I had the great pleasure (OK, the greatest day of my life) and went to Celine and Rene's home in Montreal, Rene played both versions of "Sorry for Love" for me. They had not yet decided which to use for the album. I told him that "Sorry for Love" could be Celine's own "Believe" (Cher)... the decision was made that day to go with the dance version, which, I am determined to believe was all my doing! :bananadance: :bananadance: All the same, once again, it goes to show that "One Heart," as much as I love, was a "little" album comprising a lot of leftovers. Hugs,=Chuck= Quote
Koolan Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:33 PM Posted April 3, 2008 at 11:33 PM Thanks Chuck for the rare scans! Hopefully, Sony will take a hint for their next single release.

karatedude317 Posted April 4, 2008 at 12:16 AM Posted April 4, 2008 at 12:16 AM (edited) Chuck, how's your article coming along for Alone? Would you be able to post it for us so we can tell you what we think? Nevermind just saw your post. lol. I like that you said it ain't pretty, but I hope you were referring to the choice to make alone a single not being pretty, rather than the song itself, and hopefully there are other songs they could consider.

And the ANDHC version is the remix??!! So great that you were privileged to go to Célines house!! OH MY GAWD! I want that as much as Davey wants the Alone promo.

sayyed Posted April 4, 2008 at 11:25 AM Posted April 4, 2008 at 11:25 AM finally a confirmation for the SFL story.... You can read in the OH booklet that this song is originally slated to be on ANDHC. In ANDHC booklet it reads Peer Astrom has remixed the track. Also SFL was supposed to be the first single off ANDHC but due to Celine ther title track was chosen. ... good choice IMO but SFL should have been a single right after IA in September 02. then they could have followed in December with HYEBIL.

maceta_biloxi Posted April 4, 2008 at 02:36 PM Posted April 4, 2008 at 02:36 PM I don't think Alone as a single or promo was a very wise decision. Is a nice recording and Celine's voice is great but i don't know how well it'll go as a promo to be played on the radio... I rather listen to Shadow Of Love or Surprise Surprise.....
