"Loved Me Back To Life" album - Official Topic

[browseceline]

I agree about the booklet being kind of boring. I was really looking forward to that booklet. But the paper itself is thin and so is the booklet. And the design is poor, with a lot of text in a small font. Not much photos.

I was telling that to Alex last night, that I thought the paper was soo thin and bad quality. I wonder if the American versions have a better quality booklet.

now that you're on the bright side any favourites off the new album?

Right now I'm having a love affair with Somebody Loves Somebody and Breakaway. Give me a few days and I will have a full review by song and what I think of each. A lot of them need to grow on me, however for me that's usually a sign of an album I'm going to enjoy for a long.

Here's the vinyl info from Barnes& Noble:

Here's the rap version ft. Malcolm Kelly:

Thanks, but I already got it, but I haven't received the Vinyl of the album yet. And that comes with a CD too, so my question is. On the CD that comes with the Vinyl, is the Rap version included or not?

 

Grrrrr that really bothers me. Why is it so hard for them to post "Thanks to Chin, at CDF..."

 

Just as people here post, the Red Heads posted X or Y!

 

It's good you told them. Probably they won't care, but good! I will go and see your comment and agree or like it.

 

EDIT: I wrote this: This photo was taken by the fabulous Chin, a poster at the amazing Celine Dion Forum!!!!!! Isn't it great?????

 

Ok, can someone please tell me exactly what "The Red Heads" are? To me they seem like extremely selfish Celine fans. I've heard talk about them for a while now, but I know nothing about them. Can someone enlighten me?

to tell the truth, Breakaway was my first guess can't really blame you for that

First sign of promotion I have seen in Leeds, UK:

 

Another proof that she had a deal with Clear Channel.

Thank you, Timmy!

It does not. On the Barnes and Noble page you can see that the disc 1 (vinyl) it states 6. Save Your Soul-Malcolm Kelly. On Disc 2 (CD) it simply states 6. Save Your Soul

The CD that comes with the vinyl doesn't have the rap interlude on it, just the regular version. (Which seems a bit silly. That should've, at the very least, been a bonus on that particular CD). The Red Heads are a group of Celine fans that plan different events at concerts, etc. to show their support and love for Celine. You mainly see them in France since that's where they started and where most live. There's a lot of stuff they have planned for the concerts in Europe at the end of the month. I think they're even having this huge fan get-together/after-party one night too for anyone interested in going (just to give you an example). I think at some point they may plan something for Vegas but probably won't be for a while with all that's going on at the end of the month. LOL Their effort for Une Seule Fois......they handed out red balloons (like they did with their first concert in France....and hence their name) that the crowd waved around during PQTME. They've garnered a lot of members and attention over the last couple of years and I think some members may even be part of CDA or something because they seem to have a lot of pictures from vantage points at concerts that the average fan wouldn't have access too (IE backstage, etc). Given that, they have a lot of information and videos the rest of would never really have....and because of that they can come across as selfish, etc. Anyone can join but most of don't have the $$$ to go to a lot of events, especially those in Europe since we don't live there. I think they're cool in a way because we do get to see a lot of stuff we normally wouldn't get to see otherwise. Edit: although, I do agree if they take a picture from here for their site or facebook page they should credit where they got it.

Thank you so much for that detailed explanation, ehild.

 

Well, its dissapointing that the rap interlude isn't included on that CD that comes with the Vinyl. I agree, they should the very least have included it there.

 

Alright, now I understand a little bit more. I have seen people talk about the Red Heads, but again, I never really quite understood what they were. So thank you for telling me. I guess I won't see much them anyway since I'm not French. To be honest I thought the "Red Heads" were a bunch of really angry freakishly looking gingers.

omgggg hahahahhahahhahahahahahahahhahahaha i totally thought the same thing at first!! hahahahahahahahahahahah

[smash]

 

 

I pre-ordered on Sept. 3rd. My copy of SA didn't arrive by the release date either. It arrived several days later. Where one lives, in the United Sates, might determine when we receive the CD. I can only speculate about that since several US citizens, here on the forum, were lucky enough to have gotten their copy while several others haven't. Boo hoo! Not fair!! LOL

Now look where I am, way down in South Africa!! I wonder when I am going to get mine, even though it was shipped on the 1st November. Ah well, it will get here whenever. It's ok.

Haha, love it! I really thought to myself so many times... "Seriously, what is the deal with these gingers?" I just couldn't make sense of it. So then in my head they just became these angry freakishly looking gingers.

 

Oops.

[Peppercorn1991]

I think this is the UK tv advert for the album!

[Peppercorn1991]

I think the advert is great because it makes the viewer guess who it is ..... People will think who is it and be shocked by celine dion!

 

Great ad

How can it be the ad for the UK if it says "The sensational album by Céline Dion... out now"...

I agree with Kev, this is so for UK. I recognise the voice over too. Yes people will hear the music first, see the album cover slowly piece together then see the Céline Dion wording hit them between the eyes. Can't wait to see it on UK tv!!!!

But it's been only two days right? I don't get it..

[Wita19]

I almost died today while trying to get to the store to buy the CD.

 

They told me that they don't have the Deluxe Edition in the first store, however there are 13 CDs in another one (15 kilometers away)!

I was in hurry so I did not notice that I passed the pedestrian crossing on a red light!

I would have died in vain, cause the CDs have not yet been sent from the magazine.

 

I want my CD now! I hope I don't need to risk my life once again to get it!

I don't either....

It's a sales forecast estimated by consumer trends along the first day of release. It almost always reflects the final sales numbers for albums, with an error margin of 10-20K copies. Projections are recalculated later in the week, if something special drives consumers to buy more copies of the album (deep discounts, big TV appearances, etc.)

Chuiquitin you are so smart!

Thank you dear, but charts are just my passion and I like to read about those numbers and see what is hitting the top week after week.

I don't think this is a smart thing for the RH to write... Talking about a failure on day 1 is just going to give a bad image overall... Talk about fans!!!

I am both a ginger and a member of the Red Heads...but I am not French, but I do speak French.

Va te faire foutre, connard.

Absolutely what I thought and posted in the Sales thread. This is a low week but it's not the end. The album can rebound and many things could happen. If the future could be determined then ok, but it's not like she's selling 490 copies.
