S'il suffisait d'aimer (retitled "S'il suffisait d'aimer (If Only Love Could Be Enough)" for the US release) is the sixteenth studio album by Canadian singer Celine Dion, and her eleventh French-language studio album. It was released by Columbia Records on 7 September 1998. The album was mainly written and produced by French singer-songwriter, Jean-Jacques Goldman. It garnered favorable reviews from music critics and became the second best-selling French-language album of all time, after Dion's own "D'eux" (1995). It includes three hit singles: "Zora sourit", "S'il suffisait d'aimer" and "On ne change  pas". "S'il suffisait d'aimer" won the Juno Award for Best Selling Francophone Album of the Year. Content and promotion. The project reunited Dion and Jean-Jacques Goldman, who last worked together on the very successful album "D'eux". In their first collaboration Goldman wrote songs for Dion, this time he wrote more in his own style, while letting Dion sing her own unique way, like she has been singing a long time ago. Most of the arrangements on that album are simple to let her voice dominate the songs. During the francophone concerts in the Let's Talk About Love World  Tour, Dion performed six songs from "S'il suffisait d'aimer". The concerts in Paris were recorded and released as "Au cœur du stade" in 1999. It was promoted by the video of Dion performing "Dans un autre monde". In addition, video from behind the scenes of the recording session of "S'il suffisait d'aimer" was included as a bonus on the "Au cœur du stade" DVD. Some tracks from "S'il suffisait d'aimer" were featured on Dion's 2005 greatest hits album "On ne change pas". Critical reception. AllMusic said that "fans will be pleased to hear Dion's return, in a sense , to her roots, especially since the album is about as consistent as any of her albums, both English and French".
