Say Yes Celine: Fan campaign for an unreleased show!

[Bruno Portugal]

After watching the videos created by the Say Yes Celine movement, I have to congratulate the organizers of the initiative because they make me want even more to have these releases. I especially like the fact that they are using some of Celine's most beautiful songs, which are not the ones we are always hearing at her concerts.

Thanks!

[Derek F.]

I know fans want different show's to be released, based on preference, and many fans, including me, would LOVE to have Celine's Las Vegas show from 2011-2014, maybe even a DVD of songs and shows from the Celine Las Vegas show, from 2011-2019.

 

This would be a great time to release that this year, because next month is the milestone 10th anniversary since the premiere of that show in March of 2011! And, since the first DVD release of Celine's first Las Vegas show was such a big hit and has fantastic sales, I'm sure the release of Celine's second record-breaking show would achieve major success as well with sales and on the charts, and would be treasured by Celine's fans!

And after all these years I would still pay any money to watch this 2003 A New Day show DVD (if anyone of you happen to have a recording contact me).

Here's some constructive idea for you guys:

 

Janet Jackson's fans got her album "Control" on the top of iTunes, taking advantage for the whole Justin-Britney-Janet thing. It's not a big deal top the iTunes this days (and is easy to do also), but it became news everywhere. And usually the news try to reach the artist to comment on it.

 

That's a great way to get Celine's team attention, maybe even Celine herself. Just make sure they know why Celine is topping the chart and they will carry the information to her.

 

BTW, it works better if it is with an old album or old song. I don't think Courage would generate that much news as it is too recent.

Some artists fans are better than others at uniting and working together to do things like this.

 

Unfortunately Celine fans have too many divides/groups which is sad but we will give this our best go

I think the difference is you need a very united Instagram/Twitter presence. Having an artist that is very active on those platforms also encourages it. I know we don't have the 2nd, but maybe we have the 1st. It's a start anyway!

 

I also think Celine's team is friendly and would listen. The goal is usually to get a hashtag trending by setting a specific day to flood social media. I've seen much smaller artists than Celine resond to these hashtags---which didn't even necessarily go trending.

If this winds up happening, my recommendation is “Tous les blues...” or “Le vol d’un ange” to represent her French material, and “Refuse To Dance” or “Love Is All We Need” for English.

And I would add that if you use footage of "Love Is All We Need", please don't use the footage where Celine is grabbing her girls parts and starts dancing. That was a moment of the tour. Glad she revived the song and she sounded great in the song, but not the performance.

Celine talking about the TTEOTW DVD...

How I miss that time. She looked so empowered and happy.

Agreed. Talk about a total disconnect with the song. However, promoting it would help show an interest in some of the lesser-known numbers. I had contemplated recommending "The Colour Of My Love," too, but since that song has a very special meaning between she and Rene, I felt it would come across as tacky and insensitive to use it as a tool in this endeavor.

When did she do that?!

 

I like Declaration of Love, Misled, Treat Her Like A Lady for possible chart revivals. Or we could make IACBTMN finally get the #1 it deserved.

 

 

But I would LOVE if we could get one of her upbeat tracks from Unison trending.

[Chantemoi]

We had planned a "streaming event" from the very start, but with only 600 combined followers on our social accounts, it would have been a disaster to even pretend we could pull off a bump in the charts. It's been said, and I will repeat it: the Céline fandom is so diverse and uncoordinated, that it's incredibly challenging to get them on board before we can even approach Feeling & Sony. In fact, it might be the greater challenge of the two. Fans are spread throughout the world, and creating a multilingual marketing plan is just not that easy with such a small team.

 

Anyway, this week we are announcing our (multi-lingual) game plan and releasing some really great videos that have the chance to go viral in the ******.com, so stay tuned to our Instagram/Facebook/Twitter, cross your fingers and let's hope for the best!

[Chantemoi]

Good morning! Here's a breathtaking new trailer made by Manolo! youtu.be/20yIH6_m4qc

Get ready folks! If you use social media, PLEASE WE NEED YOUR HELP!

 

We've got to spread the word! Drop links to our petition and to our new video in the comments section of any trending post or news article! chng.it/yn7gzcMkTC

 

And obviously we want to tag @celinedion @sony and our lovely hashtag #SayYesCeline

 

 

And please check back on this thread later! I'm waiting to hear if Manu has put the final touches on our Official Campaign Video Message. If so, we will swap the video URL and have fans share that one - it will blow you away!

I'm not saying no one use "Love Is All You Need" at all. I am sure there were at least one or two nights it didn't look like out there. Then use the good nights instead. And I agree with promoting the lesser songs as well as the monster hits. I was completely surprised she did "Refuse to Dance", "Misled", and THLAL....like OMG!! And we got none of that in the USA...that is what makes Vegas so hard. But atlas, that is another conversation. Anyways, use those lesser songs I just mentioned as well in the campaign. But that 1-3 nights she was off, she was OFF when it comes to LIAYN. It was one of the videos I saw in 2017 that I remember so well cause I was shocked. It was so mixed messaging it was bad. TCOML and IYA may not be good songs to use due to their different meanings to Celine, but you have LMBTL and TC that were semi-surprising to see in the set list even if it was for a brief time.

Sometime in 2017. I can try to find the video some time later today, however I would not be surprised if someone has that video bookmarked and shares it before I do.

[Chantemoi]

Okay, so I took the Redheads news leak a little to literal.

[Chantemoi]

THIS IS NOT A DRILL!

 

Share this video EVERYWHERE!!

 

[Chantemoi]

Copy and share!!

 

#SayYesCeline Please release older concert footage during the pandemic. An entire decade of your career sits in a vault, while fans are eager to relive these memories!!!

I am sharing the video, even on Celines official accounts I think it’s also time to send letters to Celines official officies, what do you think?

[PuraVida]

Nice vocal remix! Is that official or did a fan do it?

[Ororo Munroe]

You should try to contact The red heads team which is in position to contact the Feeling productions and to promote your work, maybe Julie Snyder too or Patrick Angelil.

[nuts2you]

I will share it with some of her band mates

It’s from the most amazing DJ!! I’ve followed them on YouTube for the past year. So incredible. If you watch the video again (and comment on it ;-) too) you’ll see their name at the start of the video. It’s on the boombox.

Not just yet... we still want more signatures on the petition, and plus I think the fanbase needs to be louder on social media if they’re going to take us seriously.

 

We’re at 700 signatures on the petition as of tonight, which is basically the sum of our following across all social media platforms. I want to see us around 1,000-2,000 before we reach out to Feeling & Sony... Our original timeline we discussed for the campaign (at least the first go at it) was until Céline’s birthday, when we had discussed a streaming event. Obviously if we have a better opportunity sooner than that, or if they reach out to US first, we would totally be thrilled.

We would love to... eventually! Before we get there, we want to have our final campaign video ready to present to Feeling & Sony. Even if we contacted the right person(s) and told them what we’re after, they might not be open to the idea, or if they are they might not be willing to convey the message to Céline: “Hey, your fans want something.” The message wouldn’t come through, or if it did there’s no way it would be detailed enough.

 

A strong video argument is vital to us making our message heard because so few people have time to sit down and read a 10 page letter. A well-done video can convey lots of information in less than 5 minutes — but it’s also a massive undertaking, and it’s proven to be too much for one person. So piece by piece we are putting it together. In another 3-4 weeks, we should be finished. *fingers crossed*

Nice work!

I went ahead and signed the petition, after all. Plus, I'm initially donating $3.00 to the Change.org campaign. If I can see more movement regarding this endeavor, I'll consider chipping in more. Anyway, good luck with it.

[I Drove All Night!]

Wow those videos are incredible!!! Great job everyone involved in the creation!

I don't give up , every day I share it to a new place , either in french or english , just chiped a 5$ and still waiting for the red head to answer me on facebook , it would make a big difference if they could share it on their fb for the +60000 followers but unfortunately they only answered me once in my life lol when I shared with them a fashion music video I made for Celine but they told me they wouldn't share it because they want to be the source (exclusive) but they were more loose on twitter .
