"Courage" (song) - Official Topic


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't know if I mentioned when we first got the three new songs, but Courage was my favorite. Beautiful, love the lyrics, emotional. Great song. Although I loved Imperfections & it was 2nd best at the time to me, I did think it was the best single option. And I think it would've done better if she promoted it and sang it on live shows (still might but looks like it is more likely going to be courage since she released the video around the same time as her TV appearances - makes sense.) Imperfections did roughly a million views in the first 2 days. it started off much better - even if it died recently. Unless courage, the live performances and such, end up helping. I'm not sure it will do much, honestly for this song.

 

I think Courage may have a longer run in the long term. It's a new classic, a song people will use when going through difficult times. I really hope we get a good HQ love version

I would love that. I do think it's the best of the three and one of the best on the album in general. I hope you're right!

Oh guys I just realized...

Céline & René's love story

 

80s: D'Amour ou d'Amitié

90s: The Colour of My Love

00s: A New Day Has Come

10s: Encore un Soir

20s: Courage

It's because Imperfections was all over the media with the "Céline with no makeup" tagline. This video made no such impact.

 

I think it helped being the first video in a loooong time.

 

Selena Gomez latest video is in B&W and only her close up.

 

Also "FILMED on iPhone 11" lol~

It's now 690K on YouTube :)

 

 

That's great! It means the second day got as many views as the first one (which didn't happen with Imperfections). Showing some stability!

Courage kinda just dropped randomly I think and Courage is also being helped by all the media coverage of the actual album release.

Yeah I mean people search for the album and they end up listening to the title song. Tonight's performance could do wonders for the song in the US

Guys I just realized there's an audio glitch on the video ...

 

On the very last chorus, when she belts "long as your eeeeeecho"...

 

People are saying her voice cracks on the chorus.

 

I hope they can fix the audio without re-uploading the video. How can they make such mistakes?

322k views and the first day is almost over.

 

Imperfections got about 650k views in one day.

Of course it's got fewer views. It's a listen-to-alone-at-night kind of song, not a have-it-on-replay-on-your-morning-subway-ride kind of song. Obviously it's going to get fewer spins just by virtue of the nature of the material. It still is the most striking, and, in my opinion, best song on the album. But of course my play counts on it are going to be a fraction of others - I'm not exactly commuting or cleaning the house or working out to it. It's heavy. It's not background music; you have to emotionally commit when it's on. There's a time and place for it.

That doesn't make it a lesser song. Quite the opposite.

View counts aren't the sole measure of quality or artistic significance.

I think having listened to this album I sure have my favorites -

 

The hard way - holy m... Wow this is goooooood.. Wow so good - potential megahit!

perfect goodbye - awsome song, get shivers all over, this is stunning. The melody is enchanting

change my mind - great powerballad that should be released as a single

Nobody's watching - catchy madonnalike - don't tell me - vibes

The chase - nice song that needs a proper videoclip that I can already see unfolding in my mind

Heart of glass - wow glad I bought the deluxe album. Great powerballad

For the lover that I lost - very nice song for Rene

How did you get here - Amy winehouse vibes, catchy Christmas feeling. and she plays a lot with her voice

Look at us now - again a great song! Want to hear this one live too!

Lying down - old school celine powerballad - love it!

Imperfections - very 2019 meets Justin bieber - great song..

Courage - lovely ballad classic Celine

 

 

So now we have this mainly vegas setlist: gone with the random covers and please Celine add the hard way, heart of glass, look at uw now and perfect Goodbye! And a choir for the hard way! This song in particular will be a guaranteed audience favorite. No need to do river deep again, get rid of it please, or make the list of new songs longer because these new songs are so so good. i cannot wait to hear them live!!!!!
