"Pour que tu m'aimes encore" (meaning "so that you'll love me again") is a song by Canadian singer Celine Dion, from her thirteenth studio album, D'eux (1995). It was written by Jean-Jacques Goldman, and produced by Goldman and Erick Benzi. "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" was released as the album's lead single on 13 March 1995. It received positive reviews from music critics and won the awards for Song of the Year at the Victoires de la Musique and Most Popular Song of the Year at the Félix Awards. "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" became Dion's biggest French-language hit and her signature song. It topped the charts in France, Belgium Wallonia and Quebec, and became her first and, to date, only French-language song to chart in the United Kingdom, where it entered the top 10. According to the Guinness World Records, "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" has sold 2.1 million copies in France and another 2.1 million units in Canada.

Background and release

Dion recorded D'eux in November and December 1994 in the Méga Studio in Paris, France.[1] Most songs were written by Jean-Jacques Goldman, while the production was handled by Goldman and Erick Benzi.[2] "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" was chosen as the first single and commercially released on 13 March 1995 in France, and two weeks later in Belgium.[3] On 28 August 1995, it was released in the United Kingdom,[4] Ireland, Switzerland and the Netherlands, in November 1995 in Sweden and in October 1996 in Japan.[5] The English-language version, "If That's What it Takes" was included on Falling into You in 1996. Dion often performed "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" during her concerts. It was also included on her greatest hits albums, On ne change pas in 2005 and My Love: Ultimate Essential Collection in 2008.

Critical reception and accolades

Writing for Dotmusic, James Masterton viewed the song as a "gorgeous ballad".[6] Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote, "It would be indecent to refuse this Jean-Jaques Goldman-written romantic ballad with a solid beat just because it's in French. Whatever the language, Dion always lets her heart speak".[7] A reviewer from Music Week rated the song three out of five, adding, "You need the words for this slushy stuff so Dion's return to her native tongue will temper the chances of this song in the UK, beautifully sung though it is".[8]

In France, the song received the Victoire de la Musique for Song of the Year[9] and won the Radio France Internationale Award for Francophone Council Song.[10] In Quebec, it received the Félix Award for Most Popular Song of the Year.[11] The music video was also nominated for Video of the Year at the Victoires de la Musique[9] and the Félix Awards.[11] In May 2017, the Guinness World Records awarded "Pour que tu m'aimes encore" as Best-selling Single in Canada with 2.1 million units[12] and Best-selling Single in France with another 2.1 million copies sold.[13]
