Hi,.. Life has been really busy recently but great. Jules is amazing – every day something new and he's already playing the piano! I had my birthday too, so that's another year on the clock, but actually feeling younger with being a dad! It's tiring sometimes, but you get so much out of it..... I've been doing quite a lot of press and media activities since the release of the album. It's all going well and I'm reasonably happy with the sales and downloads in Canada so far. It's ticking along nicely. We should have some news very shortly about other releases in Europe, so keep an eye here and on JV-World.com too..... Everyone wants to know what news there is about NASCAR too of course. As you might expect there's nothing official to say yet, but we're getting there! Otherwise everything looks good for Peugeot and the Le Mans 24. Testing has been great. The car just took first and third in the first LMS race so we're going to be competitive I think..... More soon.....Jacques .... ............ .. ..Vaguement - Jacques Villeneuve...... .. .. .. .. ......Add to My Profile.. | .. More Videos.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. ..It’s all about the music - JV to release ‘Private Paradise’ 19 Feb.... Jacques Villeneuve is delighted to announce that his debut album, ‘Private Paradise’ will be released on 19 February 2007 in Montreal. The acoustic-rock offering, the first single of which was released in Canada to coincide with the Montreal Grand Prix last year, features 13 tracks - nine in English and four in French. Six of the tracks are penned by Jacques himself, six by friends and the album also features one cover. .... ”The album came from loving music to start with and you can’t get into music or making an album if you don’t love music. I bought a guitar in ‘96 when I started racing in Formula One, and started writing some songs. Finally last year I decided to rent a studio and to record them properly and professionally to see how the y would sound and then of course the goal was to release it. The only way you can do something properly and get the right people involved is if it is ultimately going to be released.”.... Jacques sings lead vocals throughout the album, and there are special appearances by his sisters Melanie and Jessica, as well as Canadian singers Ely and Amélie Veille. Jacques is currently working on the distribution avenues for the album, details of which will be available at the launch, however it will be available internationally. .... Jacques goes on to say: “I am stupidly passionate about music, it has become a bit of drug. I buy tons of CD’s - and some of them are not that good, I spend days listening to each and every one of them, putting notes on every song to know which songs are good and which songs are bad so that when you do your little MP3 collection you know which songs to put on and so on. It makes my wife crazy, but you know it’s cheaper than buying watches or stuff like that! It’s not a passing interest, you either love music or you don’t, and if you do then it remains.”.... ”My career has been racing and I don’t plan on music being a career, so the plan is to keep it as a professional hobby! If I can reimburse my investment into recording the album then that would be good enough. Of course, the more sales, the happier I will be. The more you put your soul, time and effort into a project, the more you want it to be kind of successful.”.... ..À propos de musique – l’album de JV, « Private Paradise », sera dans les bacs le 19 février.... Jacques Villeneuve se réjouit d’annoncer le lancement de son premier album, « Private Paradise », le 19 février 2007 à Montréal. Ce disque rock acoustique, dont le premier extrait est sorti l’année dernière au Canada à l’occasion du Grand Prix de Montréal, comporte 13 titres – neuf en anglais et quatre en français. L’album présente six titres écrits par Jacques lui-même, six autres titres écrits par des amis, ainsi qu’une reprise. .... ”Et bien, de l’amour de la musique pour commencer et l’on ne peut se lancer dans la musique ou faire un album sans aimer la musique. J’ai acheté une guitare en 1996 lorsque j’ai commencé de courir en Formule Un, et j’ai commencé à écrire quelques chansons. J’ai finalement décidé l’an dernier de louer un studio et d’enregistrer ces chansons dans les règles de l’art, et de manière professionnelle – j’avais envie de voir comment cela sonnerait ; bien sur, l’objectif a ensuite été de les produire. Savoir que l’album sera produit en fin de compte est la seule manière de bien faire les choses et d’impliquer les personnes compétentes.” .... Jacques interprète toutes les chansons de l’album avec la participation exceptionnelle de ses soeurs Mélanie et Jessica, ainsi que des chanteurs canadiens Ely et Amélie Veille. Jacques s’occupe actuellement de la distribution de l’album ; la sortie sera internationale, et nous en connaîtrons les détails le jour du lancement. .... ”Je suis simplement passionné de musique, c’est devenu un peu comme une drogue. J’achète des tonnes de CD – certains d’entre eux ne sont d’ailleurs pas très bons, et je passe des journées à les écouter tous ; j’attribue des notes à chaque chanson pour savoir quelles sont les bonnes et les mauvaises ; ainsi, je sais d’emblée quelles chansons je dois ajouter à ma petite collection de MP3, et ainsi de suite. Cela rend mon épouse folle, mais vous savez que cela est plus économique que d’acheter des montres ou autres produits du même type ! Ce n’est pas une envie passagère, on aime la musique ou pas ; mais si l’on aime la musique, on ne peut s’en défaire.”.... ”J’ai fait carrière dans la course automobile, et je n’envisage pas la musique comme une carrière. Si je peux rembourser ce que j’ai investi dans l’enregistrement de l’album alors ce sera bien suffisant. Il est évident que plus il y aura de ventes, plus je serai heureux. Plus on investit son âme, son temps et ses efforts dans un projet, plus on espère que ce soit une réussite.”.... .. ..Hi everyone: just to remind you that the limited edition run of my single is exclusively available now at Newtown in Montreal. I'm sorry for those of you who can't make it down or live far away. ..Remember, you can click here to download it from iTunes... ....Thanks for all your positive messages and good luck gestures. Really appreciate it... Jacques. .. .. ..Formula 1 driver Jacques Villeneuve to launch debut single in Canada..... .... ..BMW F1 driver, Jacques Villeneuve is delighted to announce that he has released the debut track from his new album following the Canadian Grand Prix week....... The single, a French-Canadian song, .."Accepterais-tu?".., is Jacques' first offering from a tasty acoustic-rock album...There is a very limited edition run of 5000 copies available for purchase at Jacques' own restaurant, Newtown, in Montreal...However, to ensure that people can listen to the song, Jacques has set up this special page accessible through www.myspace.com/jvofficial. ..The song is available on ..iTunes.. globally. ..
