"Courage" album - Official Topic


Recommended Posts

Posted
These may be old recorded songs she did already. For we already know Sia wrote her three songs, and I assume she'll use them. (Like we know she used 3/4 Zaho songs on EUS!) and then there's the Linda Perry and Eg White songs... so I really can't see many jazz songs on this album. I love her doing jazz... but it wouldn't flow well out of the electro sounding Sia anthems.

Exactly those are registered songs, for all we know it could be for a Dion/Dylan tribute album with more artists doing other songs and some other projects

I prefer keeping it French ;)

The only translated song I like is Vole/Fly, beautiful

Matthew Charles - "Fix You" - Live at The Stonewall Inn

Stonewall Sensation - Season 15

Maybe if she had been more involved with her music...

 

It was completely ironic what she said.

SA cover was chosen by her and she insisted to get the drawing instead of her picture even if she was told not to.

 

To date, that's the most ballsy and artistic cover we have had.

Don't get me wrong : I love 95% of her covers for various reasons but objectively there's no experiment/ research or something.

 

SA cover is a caricature of herself and sums up what she cares of in life and that's exactly the subjects of the songs in the album.

 

You may like it or not, but the whole thing is a theme (font, pink colour) that was declined even on the single covers.

Well apparently Sam Smith is duetting on his new album with ....... Adele Damn it!

Apparently I've missed a lot. Is this album ever coming out? LOL

 

I would still adore a jazz themed album....even if it covers of her fave jazz songs. It'd be hard to have a completely original one this day and age. She could do something similar to Gaga and Tony Bennett maybe?? Or even just a tribute to her fave artists would be cool.

I want a new pop album that becomes a surprise smash hit in the wake of her critical reappraisal, which Sony then follows up with a jazz standards album. Then Celine sweeps the Grammys :giggle:

 

I remember a few years ago she recorded something with renowned jazz bassist Christian Mcbride. He sang her praises! I'm dying to hear what they worked on.

"Well, here I am with Celine. The entire session was videotaped by Sony Records. I hope you enjoy it when it's released (don't know the release date yet). Tell you what, Celine Dion is one amazingly talented and fearless lady. She's got an amazing voice and artistically, she jumped right in there with Herbie, Terri Lyne and myself. In fact, one of the songs we did was a free improvised piece. (Yes, believe it.) We had a lot of fun."

 

"Hmmmmmm.....interesting. I just got a call to record with Celine Dion this week in Las Vegas. Should be interesting. Me, Herbie Hancock and Terri Lyne Carrington are in the rhythm section. I'll keep you posted. DIdn't realize Celine was THAT hip. :-) "

Interesting. I wonder if her songs from Sia are pop anthems then? Whatever the case I'm ready for it!

She is very attentive to the competition and his next album in English will be more commercial, with sounds very current. Very different therefore of its French disk, where she wanted more in the emotion", indicates Humberto Gatica, currently in the studio with the artist

 

Sounds good to me!!!

Thought "she's not in competition with anyone by herself" :wtf: So much for that.

This sounds awfully like an album made by committee, with too many cooks in the kitchen desperately trying to ride the wave of every current fads and with no cohesive artistic vision. This kind of thing usually flops and sounds dated within a year. Hope that doesn't end up being the case!

What's wrong with trying another tactic... recent albums (English) have tried to be more current but are a few years too late.... i think she wants this album to be very current!

 

I'm excited!

Oh by all means! Try something new, take risks. All for it. Absolutely.

But do it because you believe in it, because you're creatively inspired. Not because a bunch of Sony execs and marketing peeps, etc tell you that's what the kids want to hear, and forcibly try to compete with whoever they're playing on the radio these days. It'll only come off forced and desperate. It'll never ring true.

Some may have said that about her current looks.... on the whole it been positive....I think she did an amazing job on EUS..... I have faith in her and Humberto...

 

Remember Humberto didn't touch LMBTL..... and you could really tell!

It's a bit out of kilt with reality - mainly the album sales - and also some context needed...

 

As of January 2007, she had confirmed UK album sales of 8.997 million. Since then, we've had...

 

2007 - Taking Chances - 380,000

2008 - My Love - 1,000,000

2013 - Loved Me Back To Life - 350,000

Other + catalogue - 200,000

 

That's around 2 million more at retail which takes her to approx. 11 million.

 

And I highly doubt record club sales are included in the figures from Sony - which will probably be upwards of 500,000 for her 90s albums.
