If You Think You Can, You Can! (Chinese: 地才) is a live video album by Taiwanese singer Jolin Tsai, released by EMI on June 8, 2007.[1] The album features selected live performances from her Dancing Forever World Tour held at the Taipei Arena from November 17 to 19, 2006, along with a tour documentary and four music videos.[2] The album sold over 120,000 copies in Taiwan and was the best-selling video album of 2007 on Five Music's annual sales chart.[3][4]

Background and release

On September 15, 2006, Tsai kicked off the second leg of her Dancing Forever World Tour at the Hong Kong Coliseum.[5] On May 14, 2007, EMI announced that the live video album of the tour would be available for pre-order starting May 25, with an official release date set for June 8.[6] On June 11, 2007, Tsai held a promotional event for the album at the Taipei Arena.[1]

Title

The album title was inspired by a review from the China Times following Tsai's concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum. The newspaper stated, "Jolin Tsai is a self-made talent, unlike geniuses such as Faye Wong or Jay Chou. Everything she has achieved has been earned step by step through hard work. Like many of us, she simply hopes that diligent effort will yield results. What sets her apart is that she works many times harder than the rest of us."[7] Tsai explained, "Some geniuses lose their brilliance midway due to pride and complacency, while self-made talents are willing to exhaust all their energy and work tirelessly to stand out and become legendary. It turns out that with perseverance, there is no difference between a genius and a self-made talent."[8]

Commercial performance

On June 13, 2007, EMI announced that the album had sold over 100,000 copies in Taiwan during its first week of release.[9] It topped the weekly sales charts for video albums on both G-Music and Five Music in Taiwan.[10][11] Furthermore, the album ranked second and first, respectively, on the 2007 annual video album sales charts of G-Music and Five Music.[12][4]
