I still want the English one first

[JasonFromTheMoon]

I think the English one would be the right first choice in terms of gaining actuality around the world, so even more people will want to go and see her in Vegas.

But French is French - always at her best, so I can't wait!

[Tyler1991]

Nobody really knows what the hell is going on with any albums. It sure is funny seeing people act like they know though.

[Javito]

Nobody knows what the hell Céline is doing with her career these days

[CSCfan]

Céline herself doesn't even know

[dj4celine]

Did she ever know?

[Davey84]

I know she has sold out shows performing for people who adore her...so she must be doing something right

[dj4celine]

Davey, she knows how to pick her tomatoes and make baguettes. The Vegas thing, leave that to Rene, hon

[Javito]

Yes, she can have all the applause you want in Vegas, and yes that's great. But a return without an album under her arm was a failure What about the rest of the world? It's like it only existed Vegas in their heads now.

 

And I'm not entering into the pregnancy thing and judging if she had time or not or if her voice was adequate or not. They could have released TCSV.2 or whatever past material that was unreleased... but they didn't-lazy!

 

It's not like in 2003 when they said "for those fans who can't make it to Las Vegas, they'll have something new too"

 

 

Viva Las Vegas!! $$$$$

 

L-a-z-i-n-e-s-s is all around, take good care of what you've found....

Of course they're going to act like they know! They're never going to let us see that they're lost and they don't know what they're doing. René did it a lot in the beginning with Céline so I don't see why he wouldn't be doing it now!

[JasonFromTheMoon]

They could have released TCSV.2

 

The reason they didn't do it, logically I suppose, is that her very last album was a compilation and it was a BIG compilation, it included half of her career, so to me it's normal not to release another Greatest Hits album, that would be way too much.

 

I only hope we'll have some new album soon, even with 8 songs in it, no matter what language, because I really miss her studio work.

[RLAAMJR.]

Celine fans should but 2 copies of each of her upcoming albums to double the sales.

Did they ever hear about releasing an EP disc?? They have multimple options instead of releasing nothing, but nothing is the easiest option now in their lifes

Here we go again, another wave of complaints runs through the forum

 

The best thing is that it runs according to the same old script, in this case:

 

Person A complains about the lack of a new album.

 

Person B complains about the lack of focus in Celine's current career.

 

And to top all of this, there is even a person C who doesn't feel too silly to claim that Celine never had a plan or knew what she was doing...

 

Now that we have finished this first phase of increasing levels of frustration, let's start the second phase, when we all share our little regrets about sings she hasn't sung, new styles she didn't try, interviews she didn't gave, days when her voice wasn't in top shape...

 

But then, there will be light at the end of the tunnel, when others start to stress that things aren't that bad - which will lead to the 1000th version of the old debate between those who think that pissing on everything Celine does is a sign of a critical spirit and those who think otherwise... until the calm comes back until the whole story begins again

 

If only some people weren't so over-dramatic, we could even have an interesting discussion, but based on this 'over the top attitude' of the so-called critics and their apparent incapacity to at least remotely engage with counter-arguments in a calm and rational discussion, I find it hard to motivate myself to make any specific comments.

You said exactly what I was thinking!

[ferjaacu]

Hey. I can't wait for the french album! Cause it's always the classic Celine when it's in french, no big experiments, no trying to do this or that because it's modern, no pressure, nothing and I love that! Best example for this is D'Elles/Taking Chances era. On D'Elles we got what we wanted and needed as Celine fans, while on TC, don't get me wrong I like that album, but there was a pressure about her BIG singing and that she can be Shakira, Alicia Keys and a rock singer if she wants. We all know she's better than anyone, she doesn't need to proof anything. For me she put much less of her and her emotions on that album (with the only exception of "A Song For You" and "My Love"). I hope the new album will be in the style of "S'il Suffisait d'aimer" and "1 fille & 4 Types".

I agree with you, but I don't know if it's about putting more or less emotions. I think it's about singing in other language than yours. You need to take care of pronunciation and stuff, and I think that's mostly the reason why she sounds different in french than in english or spanish. Of course, there's also something about singing in your language that you can't explain, like she said. It's in your blood !!

 

Yes, she can have all the applause you want in Vegas, and yes that's great. But a return without an album under her arm was a failure What about the rest of the world? It's like it only existed Vegas in their heads now.

Exactly. That's the same reason I was thinking about.

Javito, On what do you base your comments when saying "A return without an album under her arm was a failure?

And I don't understand why people make a big deal about the money they get for staying in Vegas. I mean, is like "OMG !! Singers make money for her work too!!" Please, let's stop talking about things we don't really know about, like personal decisions and stuff, and let her live like and where she wants.

Hahaha, you are soooooooo right !! And I know I'm a little dramatic myself. But it's just that I don't understand how people can talk (and feel so sure of what they're saying like to proclaim their thoughts to be the truth) about somebody elses decisions! I mean, are they in Celine's and Rene's heads?? Anyway, let's hope this phase ends soon.

 

Now, about the album (the French album) I would love if it's have a studio version of Quand on N'A Que l'Amour and Un Peu Plus Haut, Un Peu Plus Loin too.

[Javier_Natalio]

At the same time that most of us agree about the fact that it would have been nice to have an album by now, I have to say that I would not have appreciated another compilation, a.k.a. "money grab".

 

TCSV2 is present on many fans' minds only because the first one was called TCSV1, with the actual word "series" in it and the numer 1, thus giving the impresion of a (duh!) actual series. But do you really think Rene or Celine ever remember that album existed or that they might have created expectations on fans to get a CSV2? I highly doubt it. And even if they did release it, I wouldn't buy it, which brings me back to the very point of this post: No more compilations for me.

 

I for one will wait patiently for her next release, french or english, hoping the time we waited will translate into quality material and some of her best vocals ever.

Edited April 9, 2011 at 10:22 PM by Javier_Natalio

[RLAAMJR.]

If Celine willl release a greatest french hits compilation, it should have at least 4 new french songs to help it sell more.

 

Anyway, I believe the album D'elles was a nice album. But it lacks power.

 

I hope the power that we're looking for will be on her next album.

 

Looks like we will not see her upcoming french album on the first 6 months of the year.

I see your point Javier (tocayo! ), and you're right but TCSV.1 was not whatever kind of compilation. You have to remember that it included several songs only available in certain editions of her albums, and also a song which was never released (The Power of the Dream) but on a particular single (IACBTMN). So it wasn't another compilation like The Essential Collection was, it included some rare and hard to find songs for the casual fan

 

So if a second volume would have included 1 or 2 more songs of this kind (like Map To My Heart or The Reason I Go On, All Because of You) and maybe 1 of those unreleased ones we know (spanish HYEBIL, Love Still Exists etc), that would have been enough to buy I think

[cmcdaori]

I still want the English one first

 

I prefer French .

Nobody really knows what the hell is going on with any albums. It sure is funny seeing people act like they know though.

 

:laugh: Completely agreed.

Did she ever know?

Tocayo !

 

All of her songs, even the rare ones, we already have in our hard drives !! 2001 and 2011 are two very different points in history and now thanks to youtube, and of course this forum, we kinda know every song of hers there is to know. Now if we were talking about NEW-NEW-OLD-MATERIAL (did that even make sense? hahaha) like the never before heard songs you mentioned, then that would be something. Throw in the lost Phil Spector tracks and I'm SOLD !!!

Yes that's what I mean, apart from the rare but released songs spread in different editions, at least 1 unreleased track should be included to appeal both fans and casual public

[Tyler1991]

I will NEVER understand the whole deal over this stupid collectors series. Haven't we had enough re-releases of the same crap over and over? How about something new? SORRY, but I don't need The Power Of Love on 43 different discs, unless it is different, and unless it's a live version, I don't care.

 

The Collector's series is a wasted effort. We've had All The Way, My Love, etc....what would this accomplish? Get a bit more gambling money for Rene??

 

Seriously, let's move on to something new. Whether it's a jazz album, a Spanish album, a dance album, a French album, an English album, an album with ballads, or uptempos... I don't care. Just let it be new.

[Alex_Incognito]

It was designed to showcase material that wasn't widely released back in 2000----some of those songs many American fans were able to hear for the first time. Granted, the musical world' s a different place now and most songs released can be heard seconds after it's released no matter where it is on the planet. I think another Collectors Series could showcase some unreleased songs or songs that weren't released on CD.

Um, hardly.....out of 17 songs there were about 2 or 3 that fit that requirement.

 

Going by what you said, we should be extremely disappointed by the lack of true rarities like Run Like A River, Would I Know, and the Spector songs..... I'm quite sure songs like Seduces Me, With This Tear, and The Prayer are not only random non-hit album tracks, but featured on an album.

 

I can do without a Spanish version of a song that copied and pasted the climax from one language to the other. It's not even fully re-recorded. LOL
