"The Colour Of My Love" album - Official Topic


Recommended Posts

Posted

The song was included in all versions of the album outside the United States, if I'm not wrong. Why? Probably the marketing team at Sony thought that it wouldn't really work on that market due to its sound and musical style.

 

The weird thing is it wasn't included on the original CD that I purchased in Ireland in 1993. I definitely didn't buy the CD as an import - it was a standard-priced CD, but it may have somehow been the US version (I remember the spine and disc face had proper art direction to match the album rather than the standard Sony spine/font and generic silver disc face that came with the later edition). Maybe they originally released the US import as the domestic release until they saw its great success and then they released a locally produced, actual domestic version. Unfortunately, I got rid of that original CD when I bought the version with Just Walk Away on it, so I can't solve that particular mystery, but the US version matches everything I remember.

Yes, you bought the US version.

The international/European version with Just Walk Away was released in 1994.

And it was covered by Josh Groban later

 

 

It was also covered by Tina Karol, a top-level Ukrainian singer. But I never liked her version.

This was your CD version (US version) in 1993 right?

You have the international version, we are talking about the US version without Just Walk Away.

Wishful thinking but I would like the release of Misled remixes on streaming platforms for the 30th anniversary of TCOML.

 

Mariah did it and Madonna has been doing it for months.

 

Can't believe asking for 1 for Céline seems to me like asking for the war to stop...

I'm setting the bar pretty low... and just hoping they'll at least post the album cover for The Colour of My Love on her social media channels. And do two additional posts about The Power of Love and Think Twice. They could really capitalize on the nostalgia that comes with Celine Dion and her music. She was one of THE major forces in music in the 90s and people should be reminded of that.

 

It would be amazing for them to release something rare on YouTube.

Yes! Just a little something like that would be huge for us big fans.

 

This album was the game-changer for Celine's career. Took her to the next level. It's a much bigger deal to celebrate an album like this than, say, Loved Me Back To Life.

In terms of how big the influence was on her career yes, when it comes how much I love the albums, lmbtl is above (no album will ever top it since it marks the beginning of myself becoming a fan ;))

That's great! I really enjoy LMBTL as an album too.

 

I was just thinking in terms of celebrating Celine's career... it's important for her team to highlight and celebrate her most iconic albums in a real way. By celebrating these huge-selling albums, it's more likely to capture the attention of Celine's casual fans... and they can reminisce and hopefully go stream the albums again.

for you guys

 

Thanks! This is probably what they'll post in celebration of TCOML. :giggle:

For me this is a huge album in so many ways not just catapulting her to another level career wise but also personally for her in being able to announce her love for Rene publicly. I do hope they do something for the anniversary.

Tomorrows the day... hoping and praying and wishing for a Dolby version. We know The Power of Love will probably be the version from the David Foster compilation CD. I dont think TCOML is eligible for 7x platinum but is TPOL eligible for 2x platinum?

Yes The Power Of Love is definitely eligible for a 2x Platinum certification. Its total units (physical copies + SPS units) stood at 2,689,000 last August. It's even approaching a 3x Platinum cert (next year).

I hope they will upload some "unreleased" content on audio streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer,...) : The live version of "Can't Help Falling In Love" from the 1993 special concert, the remixes of "Misled", the live version of "The Colour Of My Love" in Japan,...

Yes! Highlighting Can’t Help Falling In Love would be wonderful. It’s become such a well-known cover of hers — and it’d be great if they included it on future greatest hits too.

The albumcover is so gorgeous. A young and sexy Celine, plus the warm brown tone. Amazing,

It's really pretty. I love the version that they posted on Twitter a few years ago.
