"Céline Dion Chante Noël" has sold 25,000 copies in total. Tracks "Glory Alleluia", "Promenade en traîneau" and "Joyeux Noël" also appeared on Celine´s second Christmas album "Chants Et Contes De Noël". In 1993, Celine recorded an English version of "Joyeux Noël", called "The Christmas song", which appeared later on her 1998 album "These Are Special Times".
