[LukeD]

The redheads on fb are saying that winning song (I can't actually remember the title lol) will be on the new album too.

Do you even remember the melody? BOREFEST!

Lol no I don't! 😂😂😂😂

[LukeD]

Lol no I don't!

Me neither. It will be a brand new experience to listen to the recording. I do remember it being boring though!..

It didn't have the special ingredient of celines voice though Luke it will make all the difference ..

It's the worst decision ever promotion/marketing-speaking.

 

Let's put aside the private side of it for a moment.

Firstly, I don't see why she can't release this cd just before the tour, let's say June 18th, there shouldn't be any problem here. Then, she would properly promote it and it would be great. The album will have to be finished before the tour either way because she wouldn't have time for recording or doing anything since she is having so many concerts on various continents, she has to rehearse and she has to rest in between too. It would be just postproduction taking place then.

Secondly, if they release it after, we all know the rest of the story. It will be released in October/November, will sell well (but not great), Christmas songs will start to be played, Christmas will pass, they release a second "flop" single and they will abandon the album as they will be preparing the English album and we will be again in a phase of waiting/postponing the English album.

Also, if this happens, the concert will only include one or two songs (3 at the most, but I doubt it) from the new album which will be forgotten till November. Moreover, the concert will have the same old setlist because they will not let her sing Cherche encore etc. I'm even afraid now that it might be like it was with Taking Chances Tour when we had ONLY ESNRQ from the new album and then only French oldies AND a half of setlist of English oldies.

True, concerts don't sell albums but there is not a better moment to release the album but right before/during the tour. I don't know if you are so naive or something but she WON'T come again to Europe to promote in autumn. There is no doubt about that. She will have Vegas then plus a second voyage to Europe in one year? not realistic to me.

 

Unless she performs just about 3 songs from this new album. 1 could be the single released before the tour and maybe another 2 songs for further promotion?

 

It would definitely be more songs if the album was released during Spring, I agree on that.

 

The sad thing is that even if she performs as many as three new songs, the rest of the album will be neglected (as always) cause there won't be another series of concerts for this particular album.

 

I believe she will be in a much better state by then. To leave her kids behind and go to France in order to promote the album would be very difficult for her now.

 

She may be in a better state but she won't have time for a second trip to France. And, I'm not saying that she should release it tomorrow but release in June and have some interviews, live performances out in the media and promotion done (after all they were supposed to broadcast the whole concert, right? I can't think of a better way to promote a new album)

 

If this news is true, maybe they will give us more rare songs from the past in the tour. It would be the perfect opportunity to do so if they're not intending to include 6 new songs.

 

Really? I don't think so. As I stated earlier they might go with a scheme to present both French and English material and that would even diminishes the chances of having such songs as Des mots qui sonnent or Immensite. They really did a very good job in 2013 but I doubt they will include any other song than those that were sung then. Maybe only some from the 80s (like THV) but nothing than that.

 

I'm SO glad I didn't purchase tickets to a show in Montreal now. With no new album to promote, I have zero interest in attending. If it's just going to be the same show and set list as the past, I'll just rewatch a DVD.

 

I agree with you up to the point. It's always great to attend her concert, you always have a good time but I'm also disappointed. I actually have tickets for Paris and will surely attend those dates but I have also a ticket for Montreal but now I think I will not go. This tour was meant to be a "new album tour" and I didn't lose my interest but it is much lower now.

[mirage]

They could release it in May/June?

 

I dont see celine coming back to Paris in fall.

It would be so much easier if they released it with her tour, she is out there, do a few interviews, maybe a special...

 

And to be honest I am afraid her concert will be the same same like the last french one.

Or they will suprise us and perform more old never live before songs

They could broadcast one of her Paris concerts live and include mainly new Songs from the New Album. Thats a better promo than any special with all the other random singers.

[ryba]

No point to do any concerts with no (or just one) new Songs. Release the New Album AS she is on Tour and include mainly New Songs! Dont Make it boring please! time to take right decisions

Yes you are right ... but we could be happy she didn´t cancel concerts ... and concerts were not promoting like tour for new album

[anewdayhascome]

Actually I wouldn't mind her postponing the tour. Not even for the album's sake but for her. It's MUCH easier to go the studio, record and give us the album rather than going to another continent to sing live a completely new show each night. This is stressful and demands energy. So then I would understand that she wouldn't have strength for that. But not releasing an album which was supposed to be out I don't understand.

Postponing the tour is something diffrent than postponing album ... too much people too much money ... as she didn ´t postpone Vegas shows there is no reason to do that with those 22 concerts. It´s more than 4 month before concerts starts, but yes you are right I also don ´t understand why album will be out in fall. only reason is summer is bad season for releasing new album and in spring she is not yet ready for promoting it.

[infiniti]

Next is postponing the tour perhaps? Was not the tour supposed to be part of a new album? What is the point of a mini tour in French without a new album? One of the song writers said the album is almost done, now postponing? Why not release it in May. Can someone translate what exactly Aldo said? Agreeing with other members that it just could be because she does not want to promote so soon and all previous album plans are being changed...but why returning to the studio now?

My hope is they realize that with this tour, the people who bought Celine tickets bought them just to see her, not because she's popular on the radio at the moment. No, she had nothing to promote when they announced her mini-tour. The tour came out of no where and peope still went wild to get tickets.

 

This means (hoping i'm right) that the majority of people who bought tickets (including me yayy) are big if not huge fans of her. And these kind of fans, at this point of her career, don't want to listen to the same old greatest hits that they heard way too many times.

 

The set list should be:

30% new songs from her upcoming album.

35% rare/forgotten songs

20% never performed old songs

15% greatest hits

 

That to me, is THE concert. lol

 

[CelineDionForeverNY]

Ideally, the only big hits I want to hear at a French concert would be PQTME, SSDA, LAAE, ONCP, and JSP. I hope that they remove the overly used DUAM, JOTI, and Destin. Those three up-tempo songs could easily be replaced with full versions of Regarde-moi, TLDH, JDDMT, DMQS, and Incognito or other songs from 1F4T or SA.

[LukeD]

After seeing tonight the emotional wreck that Celine can be while performing I feel certain that postponing the album release/promotion was their best move. She should take her time.

[Moleque20]

I really hope she re-includes 'Vole' for this tour.

[duri]

If this site is reliable than it´s a chance that first single will be out in april. And Aldo hopes english album will be out in october or november 2017.

[manu23]

I don't think this mini tour will be cancelled because the album has been postponed, is not like they announced it as a promotion of the new album, probably only fans knew a French album was rumored for Spring. Celine is one of those few artist that can have a tour without having an new album out and still sell out every date.

[anewdayhascome]

yes she can do concerts without an album but it's a missed opportunity.

[Remon]

It is a missed opportunity indeed but, regarding all that's happened and her finding a new balance in her working and personal life, not an improvident decision. I'd still be happy to pay loads of money to support her and hear her sing on this side of the ocean. If it's with 3, 5 or no new songs at all. Edited February 24, 2016 at 02:59 PM by Remon

[celine4evauk]

So she's back sept 20th through to mid October. Then there all Nov. Wonder what they've got planned then. Maybe an Aug release just as the tour ends?? 😕

[drove all night]

It's hard for me reading here comments of some "so called fans". And I don't get it. How can someone call him-/herself fan while @ the same time putting pressure on her regarding new songs/recordings/album. Since she's 12 years old she nearly permanently gave her last blooddrop for her fans. At the price of her personal life. Because of the public they kept the love affair secret for years. Torturning her soul. Because of the public and the stress of touring she couldn't get pregnant for years. Suffering as that dearest of wish didn't happen naturally. Because of the public pressure she was forced to change her haircolor back to brown.

Just a few exeamples.

And now she lost the love of her life. After seeing him getting sicker and sicker - and still perform.

 

Please let this woman mourn and do her steps back in her time.

 

I don't care when new songs will be published. She gave me SO MUCH, so so much throughout her whole carreer. Others would maybe take a long hiatus to mourn in peace. She came back only few weeks after the saddest and most energytaking days of her life.

 

SHE NEEDS now her loyal fans who don't put pressure on her regarding the new album or critize.

 

I really don't care about a new album. I simply hope she doesn't collapse! No human being has endless strength. Please. Send her a sign that she may be also weak and no one of us will abandom her because of that. At least THE REAL FANS!

 

 

[actofcontrition]

I'm so afraid now after reading aldo says (about the summer tour) : people wants to hear the hits

 

 

OMG its gonna be the same setlist again and again !!!!!!!

[ryba]

Yes, thats depressing... They just dont get it

[celine4evauk]

Still a rumour saying a single could be out in April though ☺

[LukeD]

And Aldo hopes english album will be out in october or november 2017.

Shocker.

[LukeD]

To have 2 singles released before the album (According to Aldo one in April, the second during summer) will be an interesting move. I doubt it'll happen though.

 

That said, Celine has no shows from March 12th till May 17th, meaning there is more than 2 months to shoot a music video. Seems convinient to release the single in April.

and 2 months to finish the album. If they want to release a single in April, they are really able to release the album in June, come on. What's the point of releasing a single in April and the album in October/November? It's a very looong break and I also doubt they will release 2 singles BEFORE the album. Don't see it coming
