Encore un soir (English: "one more night") is the twenty-sixth studio album and fifteenth French-language album by Canadian singer Celine Dion, released by Columbia Records on 26 August 2016. Encore un soir features songs produced by Jean-Jacques Goldman, Jacques Veneruso, Zaho, Silvio Lisbonne, Humberto Gatica and Scott Price. The first single from the album, also titled "Encore un soir", was released on 24 May 2016 and topped the charts in Francophone countries.

The album garnered positive reviews from music critics and became a commercial success. Encore un soir topped the charts in France, Canada, Belgium and Switzerland, and was certified diamond in France, two-times platinum in Canada and platinum in Belgium and Switzerland. It became the best-selling album of 2016 in Belgium, the second best-selling album of 2016 in France (best-selling album by a female artist), the seventh best-selling album of 2016 in Switzerland and the eighth best-selling album in Canada (the only Francophone album on the list). Encore un soir also became Dion's first French-language album to appear on the US Billboard charts. It has sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide.

Background

[edit]

In August 2015, Dion's manager, Aldo Giampaolo, announced that the singer will be releasing French and English language albums in 2016 and 2017, respectively. This French album will feature mainly new material, but will also contain a cover of Robert Charlebois', "Ordinaire", and a remastered version of "Trois heures vingt" which was originally released on the singer's 1984 studio album, Mélanie.[1] On 19 May 2016, celinedion.com began revealing excerpts of the lyrics of the lead single, "Encore un soir", written by Jean-Jacques Goldman.[2] The lead single was released on 24 May 2016. The cover art for the single was revealed on 17 May 2016, and is identical to the cover art for the album.[2]

During a series of interviews with various news outlets that took place on 12 May 2016 at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Dion announced that the upcoming French album would be released in August 2016.[3] On 1 July 2016, the track list for the album was released on various news websites, citing a standard edition with twelve tracks, and a deluxe version with fifteen.[1] On 9 November 2015, celinedion.com began a contest which allowed for fans to submit a track to be selected for Dion to record for this album. On 2 December 2015, after more than 1000 votes, Dion's website announced that the winner of the contest was Daniel Picard, and his track titled, "À la plus haute branche" will be included on the album.

Content

[edit]

Encore un soir was recorded between June 2015 and June 2016. In the middle of recording it, in January 2016, Dion's husband and manager, René Angélil died. The album was released over seven months later, in August 2016.[4][5] Dion and Angélil's vision of a new collaboration with legendary French artist Jean-Jacques Goldman came to fruition with "Encore un soir", marking a long-awaited reunion, after over twelve years.[4] Released as the lead single, the title track became a commercial and critical success. For the first time, the French artists Francis Cabrel and Serge Lama co-wrote a song for Dion ("Plus qu'ailleurs").[4] Jacques Veneruso, one of her most trusted collaborators in recent years, has written and composed a new song as well ("Si c'était à refaire").[4] Grand Corps Malade has once again, after Sans attendre, offered his poetry to this new album on "L'étoile" and "Les yeux au ciel".[4] Dion also worked with new writers and producers. One of them was Zaho and LNT Musik (Ludovic Carquet and Therry Marie-Louise) who wrote and produced "Ma faille", "Tu sauras" and "À vous" (on the Deluxe edition).[4] Other new partners include Florent Mothe and Mutine (Manon Romiti and Silvio Lisbonne) who wrote "L'étoile", "Les yeux au ciel" and "Le bonheur en face".[4]

Dion wanted to pay tribute to Quebec rich musical repertoire by reinterpreting the classic Robert Charlebois song "Ordinaire".[4] Marc Dupré also collaborated with Dion on this album on "Je nous veux" and "Toutes ces choses".[4] Daniel Picard saw his song "À la plus haute branche" chosen from over 4,000 submissions following a contest launched on Dion's website.[4] All these "Quebec" songs were produced by Humberto Gatica and Scott Price. Aside from "À vous", the Deluxe edition also includes "Ma force" written by Vianney and a remastered version of "Trois heures vingt", Dion's 1984 song.[4] "Trois heures vingt" was recorded for the Mélanie album.[6] It was featured on Encore un soir because Angélil was particularly fond of this song, which was played during his funeral service at exactly 3:20 pm, marking the commencement of the ceremony.[6] It was also the song which opened Dion's Summer Tour 2016.[6] Other songs from the album performed on this tour included "Encore un soir", "Ordinaire" and "À la plus haute branche" (in Canada).

Singles

[edit]

"Encore un soir" was released as a lead single from the album on 24 May 2016.

On 19 August 2016, the lyric video of this song was also released.[6][10] On 11 October 2016, "L'étoile" was announced as the second single in Canada.[11] In 2017, "L'étoile" was released as the third single in France and Belgium.[12][13] On 14 October 2016, "Si c'était à refaire" was sent to radio stations in France and Belgium as the second single there.[14] On 13 February 2017, "Je nous veux" was announced as the third single in Canada.[15] "Les yeux au ciel" was released as the fourth single in France on 14 April 2017 and Canada in June 2017.[16]
