"Courage" album - Official Topic

I like Celine’s attitude in that interview, but I hope it won’t take too much time for her to finish the album, sometimes taking a lot of time doesn’t mean the final result will be better

I just hope that she already received really good songs that she can turn into gold with her interpretation, and they will become a great way to start this new album era

My Heart will Go On sold WAY over 2 Million copies in the USA. It was her biggest hit. Everyone knows that. Im Your Angel is RIAA certified as having 2 Million copies sold in the USA. It hit number one for 6 weeks I believe. It nearly won a grammy something BYLM did not.

She's often said that some songs just don't translate well to the (big) stage.
A lot of the songs she professes to love, may fall in that category. Doesn't mean she doesn't genuinely love them.

The only song I have ever heard her say didn't transition well to the "big stage" was "Falling Into You." However, Celine is now in a nice, moderately-sized theater in Las Vegas. The Colosseum is far more intimate than a 10,000+ seat arena. These "intimate songs," if this term applies to more than just "Falling Into You," could have easily worked during the run of "A New Day...," and most certainly now with the orchestra theme. For example:

"Falling Into You": Beautiful aerielists falling from cloth, ribbons, etc. from the ceiling. This would have been during "A New Day..."

"Miles To Go (Before I Sleep)": Could easily work as an acoustic song during the acoustic medley. A moment during "Celine" which could easily showcase some of her lesser-known songs, not a spot where three of her well-known songs are to be butchered to death.

"Us": A massive orchestral moment during "Celine." I have faith Scott could create an amazing arrangement for this song for the Vegas stage.

"A Song For You": Could have easily worked in the spot where "Recovering" is positioned before that song was presented to Celine by P!nk.

"Right Next To The Right On": Same as "Miles To Go (Before I Sleep)." A perfect contender for the acoustic medley in "Celine." Also, could have worked well after "Eyes On Me" during the "Taking Chances World Tour." It could have been a "cool down" moment from the dancing. It would have been a beautiful moment. At the very least, the instrumentation could have been worked into a cool interlude.

The "D'elles" album: So many possibilities with practically, if not indeed, every single song on this album. Instead, only two songs have been showcased on a consistent basis with "Immensite" only being the last few years.

That's my two cents.

Argue with TOTAL SALES, BYLM is her 2nd best selling single, 2nd most streamed

January 29, 2018 at 09:36 PM

Sony relesed a limited number of singles for MHWGO because they wanted to sell both albums instead, LTAL and Titanic OST. At that time sales weighted more than airplay, if they had put more singles in the stores MHWGO would have probably broken all records in the Hot 100.

This list is also in no particular order. If it was arguing these songs overall success, they would have listed them in that order. They would group the #1s together and then the the #2s and so on. This is a mixed bag just telling us what her hits were.

Maybe she likes them so much that she doesn't want to sing them on an industrial basis in order not to wear them out?

Some songs you quoted I adore them but I don't listen to them very often.I don't know why...maybe that's the same for her.

On top of that, she already brought back some rare songs during her last 2 tours. Let's see what the future holds. It's a good way for her to sing them some time without getting tired of them.

She also stated that she wanted to do some shows with unknown songs... like she said SOME.Not night after night...

I know that she could sing them in Vegas and change setlist every run, at least 1 song. But for some reasons, she doesn't. I think that's a mix of laziness, organization ( musicians have to learn the song too, they have to rehearse it, etc...all this for 10 nights for a audience that doesn't give a d*** about it)....

Vegas is not the right place to do it IMO

Plus, she might like them , listen to them and sing them at home. Who knows? Stating she likes those songs ant not singing them on stage isn't contradictory. She can sing them whenever she wants to :-)

"Celine Dion's Biggest Billboard Hot 100 hits chart is based on actual performance on the weekly Billboard Hot 100, through the April 8, 2017, ranking. Songs are ranked based on an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at No. 100 earning the least. Due to changes in chart methodology over the years, eras are weighted to account for different chart turnover rates over various periods."

After the peak debate.......

January 30, 2018 at 04:57 PM

Give the singles a rest will you? :-D

January 30, 2018 at 05:07 PM

she has no singles since 2003 , Sony doesn't care, nor Celine. :giggle:

But when you read the list in the order it's written, it contradicts what you just copied here.

January 30, 2018 at 05:37 PM

no rush, the album will be ready when she feels that, i couldn't agree more about her attitude

we are talking about an album, not a cake :-D

a song takes long time to produce :innocent:

January 30, 2018 at 05:48 PM

It takes time to get the cherry on the album (or cake whatever)... :-D

January 30, 2018 at 05:58 PM

I agree that the album should be given the time it deserves BUT it'd be amazing if she could block out a couple weeks and just go into the studio all day, every day and encompass herself in it all. I feel like that'll get her more in the zone, too.

You can only do that if you are satisfied with the songs sent...

And what would happen if on those couple of weeks her voice was ok, not great but just ok?

January 30, 2018 at 06:46 PM

Right -- it would take a lot of prep work. Have everything ready and then just hunker down and record. As long as her voice is in top shape.

ohhhhh

January 30, 2018 at 06:57 PM

And this would also be possible if she wrote her own songs.

Do writers reach out to Celine, or does Celine ask specific writers?!

I think it's both... it seems they reach out more to French writers (JJ, Veneruso etc) but I think with English they more go for songs they receive.

Tho being selected can lead to more songs too (always be your girl/ thankful)

I'm curious who reached out to Stephan Moccio,or the other way around

She's looking for the button on her sleeve... or... no...ermmm... nah, not more of that thank you :giggle:

January 30, 2018 at 10:20 PM

We all feel that Celine want to release a special album and that needs time. But in the meantime she could release a single with a music video to start promoting it.

I think we all desperate for something new.

January 31, 2018 at 08:09 PM

I hope Celine can record across a lengthy period of time and it works. Encore un Soir is such a lovely album, and I hope for the same for her new English record.

I can’t help but think about the spotty recording process for LMBTL. Recorded across a long period of time. That recording process left us with a spotty album. So I hope this new album will be more cohesive with a through-line / theme / beautiful vocals / gorgeous classic Celine arrangements and songs Celine is proud of and relates to.

How long did it take her to record Encore un Soir? I know Rene was passing when she started that album which, of course, delayed the process. But I’m sure his passing also ultimately gifted the album with so much heart and honesty.
