Album Information
Céline Dion was surrounded with three writers-composers and an artistic director who have made their mark on the French music scene. The voice of all these artists – Jacques Veneruso, Erick Benzi, Gildas Arzel and Jean-Jacques Goldman – accompanies Dion's performance throughout the entire album, produced by Benzi and guided by Goldman.
The album features three covers: "Tu nages" – originally by Anggun (2000), "Retiens-moi" – by Nanette Workman (1996), and "Rien n'est vraiment fini" – by Leyla Doriane (2000).
1 fille & 4 types was released in three different formats – regular CD and two limited editions: CD with 50-page collector's book, and CD with " Making of "Tout l'or des hommes" video DVD. The last two were released in France only.
On October 1, 2003 Céline Dion taped the 1 fille & 4 types television special at the Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, where she performed her show A New Day..., to promote the album.
After three single releases from that album: "Tout l'or des hommes," "Et je t'aime encore," and "Contre nature," there was a fourth one issued in France and Belgium – "Je lui dirai." However, it was promoting also Dion's next album Miracle, as it was included there as a bonus track.
"Et je t'aime encore" is a French version of "Je t'aime encore" included on Dion's previous English album One Heart. A live version of this song became a part of A New Day... Live in Las Vegas CD, as Céline Dion performed it between November 2003 and November 2004 during her show A New Day....
All singles from 1 fille & 4 types were featured later on Dion's 2005 French greatest hits compilation On ne change pas.
The making of 1 fille & 4 types album and "Contre nature" music video, as well as all music videos from this album were included on the On ne change pas DVD.

Famous quotes containing the words album and/or information:
“What a long strange trip it’s been.”
—Robert Hunter, U.S. rock lyricist. “Truckin’,” on the Grateful Dead album American Beauty (1971)
“Many more children observe attitudes, values and ways different from or in conflict with those of their families, social networks, and institutions. Yet today’s young people are no more mature or capable of handling the increased conflicting and often stimulating information they receive than were young people of the past, who received the information and had more adult control of and advice about the information they did receive.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
