"Let's Talk About Love" album - Official Topic

[jpatdeleon09]

The Japanese version of ''Be The Man'' is outstanding - better than the English IMO. It feels like the song was originally supposed to be sung this way. Really, really beautiful.

 

True!

I really like the demo version better... she's singing more softly and fluid...

Demo version is the other english version right? I agree! I find the one in the album is a bit aggressive and loud like you can almost see it over the red line (way above it will sound distorted)

is the translation similar lyrically? In the Japanese version toward the end of the course, it almost sounds like she’s singing the word heartbeat, but I’m sure I’m probably just miss hearing something as it doesn’t make sense for a random English word to be sung there.

Yes! It says Heartbeat in Japanese version

noticed that Apple Music has a Dolby Atmos track of "To Love You More" and heard more pronounced instrumentation that I haven't noticed before. When she sings the second verse, you can hear the boom of tympani drums which was always there but now has more "punch". And throughout the track, the synth parts are highlighted even more than before. What's cool too is you definitely can hear the guitar glissando during that 2-beat pause before the last chorus. Always loved TYLM, love it even more now!

Love this song! The album version is my favorite version. Always hated how much of the instrumentals/outro was cut out by the radio edit!

[woodstock]

It's the same mix as the one that had been made available years ago on the SACD version of "All the Way...A decade of songs". I like this version so much better, too !

yes, you're right... and the SACD has even more bass and lows emphasis... I can her a lot more instruments there also... the Dolby Atmos is great, but sometimes I found them to be a bit muffled and not that fuller of a sound

So, I've been Celine starved and have been seeking out rare Celine stuff on ebay to buy. I decided to pick up the radio promo of Tell Him.

 

I remember waaaay back before Let's Talk About Love came out, there was a mockup of the album cover and it actually titled the album "The Reason." I have been trying to find evidence of this for the longest time and have come up with nothing. I started thinking I was crazy and I just remembered wrong. Well, I saw this on the back of the "Tell Him" promo single: "Taken from the forth coming album: Celine Dion: The Reason"

Yep, the album was originally announced as The Reason (a much more interesting, enigmatic, better title, I think), but then that quietly went away after Carole King refused to give up the requested portion of her publishing for the "privilege" of being on the album. Given his status at the time, I wouldn't have thought Bryan Adams would give up any of his publishing either, but he got the album title...

 

I should point out that I don't believe it's ever been confirmed that publishing rights issues were the reason for the name change, but that was always my sense of how things went based on timing.

interesting title change. Never heard that before. Only other similar instance was with the Loved Me Back to Life album when it was going to be called Water And a Flame.

Imagine what it could have been if they had a official one out since day 1.

Still hoping for BATB and BYLM to get uploaded. Even if they’re re-edited versions without film clips.

[ryba]

Well, the title LTAL reflects the idea that all the songs on the album are talking about love and that it’s a love album. The reason IMO was initially supposed to reflect the reason why Celine was so immensely successful with the reason being her new album with all those awesome songs. But that would be quite arrogant, and as we know Celine never wants to be pretentious

I’d love to see that mockup one day. Did it feature the same cover photo that they ended up releasing?

 

Talking about this, I have an official TeamCeline letter from 1997 in which they announce Celine’s upcoming English album “The Reason”.

Yeah. I remember it being the same exact album cover except it had "The Reason" as the title. I think it MIGHT have been on her official site but I don't remember.

Back in the days, I remember too hearing from the album as "The reason" weeks before it was out.

When I bought it on the day of its release, it was even mentioned as "The reason" on the receipt : it seems that the change hadn't been made by the supplier or the record company !

[Taking Chances]

interesting title change. Never heard that before. Only other similar instance was with the Loved Me Back to Life album when it was going to be called Water And a Flame.

 

I don't think I knew that Let's Talk About Love was originally gonna be named The Reason. Interesting!

 

I've always wondered why her french albums are not always named after a song from the album, but her English albums always are. (D'eux, 1 fille & 4 types, D'elles, Sans attendre) I love album titles that isn't named after a song from the album. The closest thing we have for her English albums are These Are Special Times instead of These Are THE Special Times, The Collector's Series Volume One and the Celine Dion album.

 

And speaking of Loved Me Back To Life, Water And A Flame is much better title for the album I think. I wish they kept the original title for the album.

Yeah I was gonna mention that one. Honestly, I prefer the original title and concept and wish they had stuck with that whatever it took. Also, wasn’t there talk of “Encore un soir” being titled “Ma faille” instead? Also a better name if you ask me.

[jmiracle]

Also, Taking Chances was supposed to be called The Woman In Me. They changed it after fans pointed that it was the name of Shania Twain’s iconic album

I remember this, but was that an official title before it was changed? I can't remember where that title came from anymore.

 

I remember some fans said that Shania's album was called that, but Shania's album came out 12 years before Taking Chances, so surly Celine's team would be aware of that. The album could have been called "That's Just The Woman In Me". Either way, I never understood what the issue would be calling it Woman In Me. It's a pretty common title for various celebrity projects.

I remember a cover was posted on the official Instagram with that title, but removed like 2 minutes later.

I remember this. It would’ve bugged me if the album shared a title with Shania’s massive album.
