New French single, "Encore Un Soir" - May 24th, 2016

Bahhhh I guess that makes sense. Just frustrating considering in the end it's all under the Sony umbrella... the money still ends up at Sony somewhere.

The money might still end up at Sony but you also have to remember that each division, Canada, USA, France, UK etc have their own budgets and run independent of each other, while coordinating and aligning certain things with each other. It's a complicated thing to understand big businesses with several divisions and how they work.

 

Such a deep song, delicate and exquisite. I won't know how to act should I ever get to hear it live.

Just bring a tissue. We all know you'll soon be surprising your husband with a trip to Montreal in August. Hahahahaha

Ok so it's not Celine asking for one more night but from Rene's perspective?
I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.

Most charts count sales from Friday to Friday (midnight), so she's behind in sales by 4 days. But I hope EUS can make up the lost time and debut high on the charts everywhere!

Cool! On CBC?

 

The Montreal Gazette has an article on Encore un soir:

If anyone has a Facebook account, post positive comments! Of course, the first post had to be a negative one. :rolleyes:

I understand how big businesses work, I'm a manager at a big business.... what I don't understand is copyright laws and how they apply to a multi-national company. Two different things ;) but thanks for the clarification :)

It's because the different divisions, while being under the Sony umbrella, all do run independently like Del said. Plus each country has it's own set of copyright laws, and some of those laws clash with those of other countries'.

I've listened to this song probably like 30 times today, and I am in love. I hear the meaning and the emotion she has each time I listen to it. I can hear her cry of the meaning... She really does a great job with this, and Humberto really made me voice shine. If all the album is this good, I think this may be one of my favorite French albums of hers. Can't wait for more💞💞

I didn't know love until they loved me back to life because somebody loves somebody!

It's nice to see her getting coverage in US media about Encore un soir, but it doesn't really help if people can't buy it. But at least they link to the official YouTube audio video.

#1 on Amazon.fr :)

 

I'm not sure how many people actually download music from Amazon.fr, but it's another #1. :) Could it debut at #1 in France?

 

The last song to debut at #1 was Toujours debout by Renaud in January, so it's possible!

Are you freaking kidding me?! Assuming that list is accurate, "Next Plane Out" is blocked in the country it was a single at?! Man, her team is incompetent.

Well, the ones that it says that are blocked in my Country.....don't work

and maybe this is why Germany has so many issues https://en.wikipedia...deos_in_Germany

 

by the way, this is the first time I see this, from the same page that we get the iTunes Charts, and maybe It's the same thing with each part of the licenses that permits Sony around the world to sell or not sell a particular track or video

I gave the song a couple listens and I really like it! It has a very D'elles vibe to it. Her vocals are very subtle in parts where we would have gotten big belts in the past, and I'm convinced that's a good thing. It's evolution, it's growth. It's sincere in the way that this is her today... Congrats my queen!!

The "larme de bonheur" (tear of joy) line especially gets me . . because Rene always cried tears of joy.

Hey guys, so this is my take on the translation.

 

This song is so wonderful.

I’ve put the translation, plus my take on the interpretation too. I’ve tried to keep the poetry in it, but it’s not easy. Don’t hesitate to give your take on it, just be nice!

 

Also, I totally agree that Celine is singing it from the perspective of the dying one (René's place), asking for more time on Earth.

 

 

 

Une photo, une date, c'est à n'y pas croire !

C'était pourtant hier, mentirait ma mémoire ?

Et ces visages d’enfants ? Et le mien dans ce miroir ?

 

A photograph, a date, I cannot believe it!

It was yesterday, wasn’t it? Would my mind be misleading me?

And these children’s faces? And mine in the mirror ?

 

Oh, c'est pas pour me plaindre,

Ça vous n'avez rien à craindre.

La vie m'a tellement gâtée ; j’ai plutôt du mal à l’éteindre.

Ô mon dieu j'ai eu ma part, et bien plus à tant d’égards.

 

Oh! This is not a complaint,

Do not worry!

Life has been so great to me; I am actually having a hard time closing it down.

Oh God, I have been blessed, and so much more in so many ways.

 

Mais quand on vit trop beau, trop fort,

On en oublie le temps qui passe,

Comme on perd un peu le Nord

Au milieu de trop vastes espaces.

 

But one who lives his life this wonderfully, this strongly,

Forgets that time passes by,

The way one loses his sense of direction

In the midst of fields too immense.

 

À peine le temps de s'y faire,

À peine on doit laisser la place.

Ô, si je pouvais…

 

So little time to get used to it,

And one has to step aside.

Oh if only I could…

 

Encore un soir, encore une heure

Encore une larme de bonheur

Une faveur ?

Comme une fleur,

Un souffle, une erreur

 

One more night, one more hour

One more tear of joy,

A favor?

Like a flower,

A gasp, a mistake

 

(Flower also means favor in French, so there’s the double entendre here

About the word ‘mistake’, I think that she/he wants the Gods to make a mistake and not take her/him. That’s the favor she’s asking.)

 

Un peu de nous

Un rien de tout

Pour tout se dire encore

Ou bien se taire en regards

 

A piece of us,

A piece of everything,

To tell each other it all,

Or just sit there, looking at each other.

 

(This last sentence is very poetic in French. I do not know how to say it otherwise :blush:).

 

Juste un report

A peine encore

Même s'il est tard

 

Just a delay,

A little longer,

Even if it is late.

 

J'ai jamais rien demandé

Ça c'est pas la mer à boire !

Allez ! Face à l'éternité,

Ça va même pas se voir

Ça restera entre nous...

Oh, juste un léger retard!

 

I’ve never asked for anything

This is not asking too much!

Come on! Compared to eternity,

It won’t show.

It will stay between us…

Oh, just a little delay!

 

(There is a change of tone here. It’s more talking, less literacy as if she’s getting impatient. I’ve tried to translate it this way)

 

 

I’m getting hungry lol. I’ll do the rest after dinner :-D

Thank you. Beautiful :wub:

Guys, the video on YouTube is starting to explode (by our/her standards at least) It's easily going to pass the show must go on by tomorrow I think. This makes me excited and shows how different she is perceived outside of the USA. Not everywhere, but many places anyway.

Here’s the end of my translation. I’ve put it all together.

(This last sentence is very poetic in French. I do not know how to say it otherwise :blush:)

(Un rien de tout literally means a little something/nothing of everything)

 

Juste un report,

A peine encore,

Même s'il est tard.

 

Just a delay,

Just a little one,

Even if it is late.

 

J'ai jamais rien demandé.

Ça c'est pas la mer à boire !

Allez ! Face à l'éternité,

Ça va même pas se voir.

Oh, juste un léger retard!

 

I’ve never asked for anything.

This is not asking too much!

Come on! Compared to eternity,

It won’t show.

This will remain between us…

Oh, just a slight delay!

 

Y'en a tant qui tuent le temps,

Tant et tant qui le perdent ou le passent,

Tant qui se mentent, inventant les rêves

en des instants de grâce.

 

There are so many people who kill time,

So many, so many who lose it or spend it,

So many who lie to themselves, making up dreams,

And regarding them as moments of grace

 

(There’s a lot of word play here)

(My thinking is that she’s saying that lots of people don’t know what to do with their time. Just give her more time to live, and she’ll use it wisely)

 

Moi, je donne ma place au paradis

Si l’on m’oublie sur Terre

Encore hier.

 

But I would trade my place in heaven

If I’m left behind on Earth

Yesterday.

 

(Don’t really know what to think about ‘Encore hier’. Does she want to back to yesterday?)

 

Encore un soir, encore une heure,

Encore une larme de bonheur

Une faveur ? Comme une fleur, un souffle, une erreur.

Un peu de nous, un rien de tout

Pour tout se dire encore ou bien se taire en regards.

Juste un report à peine encore.

Je sais, il est tard.

 

One more night, one more hour,

One more tear of joy,

A favor? Like a flower, a gasp, a mistake.

A piece of us, a little piece of everything,

To tell each other it all or just sit there, looking at each other.

Just a delay, just a little one.

I know! It's late.

 

C’est pas grand chose. Rien qu’une pause !

Que le temps, les horloges se reposent !

 

It’s not much. Just a small pause!

Let time, let the clocks have some rest!

 

Et caresser. Juste un baiser, un baiser.

Encore un soir, encore une heure.

Un peu de nous, un rien de tout.

Un soir.

 

And caress. Just a kiss, a kiss.

One more night, one more hour.

A piece of us, a little piece of everything,

One night.

 

 

Here you go! As I said, do not hesitate to correct/give your opinion for a better translation!

This is so beautiful. So emotional. Have tears in my eyes reading your translation. I keep thinking are these words as if Rene is singing them? It seems so. The show must go on is a powerballad. Great on itself but can't compare with this intimate confession. A jewel it is.
