Sorry, again I put my quote in the quote I wanted to reply to. Crazy that I sometimes do that.

Ok, thanks. I'm a bit out of it as far as doing that is concerned. Will try and find out how to do it.

Music video news??

[Magicalmark2013]

where the hell is this video it was shot ages ago!!! LOL

[CelineDionFreak]

The only logical reason I could see the music video not being here yet so Celine and/or NeYo shooting more stuff somewhere. Otherwise, I'm as baffled as we all are.

[DionFanAlways]

...... Wel it could be because there's blizzards in the east as to why there is no video releasesd.... Yep that's it!

you're right about that. All the snow and storms have prevented them from delivering the files to me and I haven't been able to get the work done. I do apologies. hahaha

"Whole world is watching us n...wait, no they aren't! There's no music video! Why did I bother shooting that darn thing when I could have been picking my own tomaters?! Rene! Put those playing cards down and take care of this...NOW!"

or is the Olympics or NBC making the decison to play it?

[mike_z]

This is ridiculous! I tried BUYING "Open Arms", first from iTunes Argentina, no sign of it.

Then I tried amazon Italy, everything was right until I got to the payment part. It read "You are not allowed to buy this track due to territorial restrictions" or sth like that!

 

:wtf: :wtf:

[rodrigo]

In Brazil is not available too.

:wtf: :wtf:

Stupid restrictions if you ask me...

And they complain music sales are in decline.....

 

celinedion.com:

Due to the freezing weather there is only slow-motion version of the newest music video for Celine's latest hit single featuring Ne-Yo available at the moment.

The normal version will be available as soon as it gets warmer. According to weather forecast sometime in late March early April.

Meanwhile......

The album, the single, the video...dead... after so many years of waiting...

 

Well, "burying" old divas seems to be fashionable ... the same happened to Cher (whose album was time times better than Celine's new album)

[smash]

If they don't play it, then it should be played for us fans, who have been waiting forever for some kind of video of anything.

The single was just released and the video is not even out yet.

[Frozen_Phoenix]

Wait and see, the video should have been ready by the time they were performing together. Today you need to use the buzz when the buzz is created and not two months later. Edited February 15, 2014 at 04:09 PM by Frozen_Phoenix

Urg no! Cher's album was a huge dissapointment IMO. For me, Celine's album is a trillion times better. Not to forget that Celine's new album sold 1.4 million copies worldwide whereras Cher's new album only sold 400,000 copies worldwide (that's what I call a massive FLOP).

[Frozen_Phoenix]

Sorry, for me sales figures don't mirror quality...

 

Cher's album is very versatile, half of Celine's album is boring like hell. To me this whole era is a huge disappointment and I would have never thought it would come to that after listening to this wonderful first single for the first time during that performance in Quebec. Cher's first single Woman's World was far worse than Loved Me Back To Life.

However, the album is a complete different story. Celine's management (or whoever) managed to destroy everything that could have turned this album or this era into a success. They are continuing to do so with the second single. It's just horrible that so many here continue to see Celine through pink glasses...

 

Nowaday's Celine is limited to Vegas and that is more obvious than ever before since this album.

[LukeD]

IMO when they decide to release a single they should release and promote it properly (Live performances, Music video, I tunes banner). That said, I can't blame her team for not going for such a carefully-executed release given the fact radios will not support the song. Airplay will eventually determine its fate. This is not the case with her album sales, hence she promoted the album more than any release since ANDHC, a fact that seems to be forgotten by the majority of active members here who act as if Celine herself or her team didn't care about its commercial reception. Anyway, I think we should treat this single and its accompanying music video as a souvenir from this era and not as a chance for the album to rise up the charts again. I am also pretty certain that the best option for Celine is to move to her next English studio album as soon as possible. That way she will please fans who keep complaining about the so-called '6 years gap' and she will also show everyone that she cares about her career, that she is still active. It will also give people the impression that she's satisfied with her albums' sales, hence she goes for further releases. To me, the LMBTL era gave everything it had to offer. Well, except for a mini tour in Europe...! Edited February 15, 2014 at 07:21 PM by LukeD

For me Cher's album is cheap, predictable, uninspiring and dated as hell. This album is a carbon copy of a mash-up of Believe and Living Proof. No wonder this era turned into a massive disaster for Cher. Probably this wouldn't have happened if she would have stuck to the idea of releasing a promising hardcore dance album like she was claiming so in 2012 :

I agree that sales figures don't mirror quality. There are endlessly talented artists out there releasing music who none of us will never hear of -- because they just don't have a platform to be heard.

 

But that's where I stop agreeing what you've said....

 

Celine Dion's new album is not "boring like hell". I suppose it's just taste. Nothing against Cher, I think she's great. But her music is certainly not my taste. I'm curious to know if you like Celine's album ONE HEART? If so, then we just have very different taste.

 

Celine's new album showcases to me that her vocal power is stronger than ever. And what an amazing thing that is. If this era has done nothing else -- it showcases to us, both through live performance and recorded songs, that her voice is in top shape these days. How is that even possible after so many years of live performances? It's astonishing to me. Look to her peers -- Whitney, Mariah -- and compare. Celine has respected her gift and has taken all of the necessary steps to maintain her talent.

 

This era has also shown us that Celine still finds joy in all of this. Her performances -- when she was feeling confident vocally -- had the sort of vitality and infectiousness that her 90s performances so often had. I am so thrilled to have seen that again!!!

 

I'm not a big fan of blanket statements like "Celine is limited to Vegas and that is more obvious than ever before since this album." Where is the foundation for this argument? I understand we are ALL frustrated that Celine does not want the success as much as we want it for her. And her team absolutely does not approach promotion in the ways we would. But, between SA and LMBTL, Celine has had all kinds of impressive, untouchable success.

 

So... How is her career limited to just Vegas? Has she truly not had any success outside of Las Vegas, Nevada? Has LMBTL not sold outside of Vegas? Was SA not her most successful French album in years? I'm just curious to know more of what you're trying to say/prove?

 

Lastly, and this is to all of us:

 

What is the point of harping on negativity? I'm all for constructive and honest conversations about her career. But, at the end of the day, Celine is such a stunning, stunning, stunning talent. How glorious it is that she's had the success she's had in her life. But if every other person on this planet stops buying her records and stops going to her concerts -- I know that I will still be there. And my guess is a lot of you guys will be too. Because it's not about the success of a record anymore. It's about Celine.

 

When Rene is gone, Celine will retreat totally into her personal life and fade away. I feel it in my bones. So I treasure any music she releases. Any glimpse into her personal life she gives us with interviews. Any concert she offers.

 

Can we just take a breath and be appreciative of Celine's talent? That's not looking at Celine through "pink glasses". Celine's voice is why I am a fan. Her grounded persona is what keeps us all committed. And the fact that this poor girl from Quebec has the most spectacular voice I've ever heard in my life is why I will always remain committed.

 

We get lost in the haze of frustration with promotional stuff and the jealousy of other artists and the comparison to other artists, etc. and we forget why we're fans in the first place. I feel good being a Celine Dion fan. She is classy and intelligent (more than we even know) and she has grown to be more in control of her life as the years pass by. Which is why right now she's at home rolling around on the floor with her kids, having a blast. And we're worrying about her career's future! She spent her entire life chasing her dream. And, now, she's reevaluated and changed her priorities. And that' fine.

 

So let's just take a step back and appreciate the talent and the woman. And anything else from here on out is just icing.

 

If you need a help gaining perspective, watch this tribute from 2008:
