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.

During the francophone concerts in the Let's Talk About Love World Tour, Dion performed six songs from S'il suffisait d'aimer.

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.
