Released as a single internationally on November 24, 1997 from Dion's fifth English-language studio album, Let's Talk About Love (1997), as well as the film's soundtrack, the power ballad became a global hit, topping the charts in over twenty-five countries, including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

"My Heart Will Go On" is considered to be Dion's signature song.[3] With worldwide sales estimated at over 18 million copies, it is the second best-selling physical single by a woman in music history, and one of the best-selling physical singles of all time.[4][5] It was also the world's best selling single of 1998.[6] It was also included in the list of Songs of the Century by the Recording Industry Association of America and the National Endowment for the Arts. The music video was directed by Bille Woodruff and released at the end of 1997. Dion performed the song to honour the 20th anniversary of the film at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards on May 21, 2017.[7]


Recording origins


James Horner had originally composed the music for the song as an instrumental motif which he used in several scenes during Titanic. He then wanted to prepare a full vocal version of it, to use during the film's end credits. Lyricist Will Jennings was hired, who wrote the lyrics "from the point of view of a person of a great age looking back so many years".[8] Director James Cameron did not want such a song, but Will Jennings went ahead anyway and wrote the lyrics. When Dion originally heard the song, she did not want to record it[9] as she felt she was pushing her luck by singing another film theme song after "Beauty and the Beast" and "Because You Loved Me".[8] Horner showed the piano sketch to Simon Franglen, who was working with him on electronic textures and synthesizers for the film score. Franglen had worked with Dion for several years on many of her major hits to date.[10]


Recording


James Cameron felt obligated to include a theme song to promote the film. Glen Brunman also stated that the soundtrack album was supposed to be "No song, no Céline".[11]

Dion's manager and husband René Angélil convinced her to sing on this demo version, which she had not done for many years. Tommy Mottola claimed that Dion recorded the song in one take, and that demo is what was released in the film. However, she re-recorded the song for her album release after the film's release and its tremendous success. It was an edited version with few note changes at the end of the song.[11] Horner waited until Cameron was in an appropriate mood before presenting him with the song. After playing it several times, Cameron declared his approval, even though he worried that he might be criticized for "going commercial at the end of the movie". Cameron also wanted to appease anxious studio executives and "saw that a hit song from his movie could only be a positive factor in guaranteeing its completion".[12]


Composition


The song is written in the key of E major. The verses follow the chord progression of E–Bsus4–Aadd9–E–B. The chorus has the chord progression of C♯m–B–A–B. The song modulates to A-flat major.[13] It contains heavy emphasis on the instrumental arranging. Usage of Tin Whistle is prominent, backed by melodic use of strings and rhythm guitars. The song features both acoustic and electronic instrumentation. Dion's vocal performance is described as "emotional" and "demanding" by Pandora Radio.[14]


Versions


The original Horner/Franglen produced "demo" version of the ballad runs a little over five minutes and has an extended ending with longer, segmented vocalizations by Dion. Franglen mixed the final film and soundtrack version, expanding on the demo and adding orchestra to the final chorus. It is this version which appears on the Titanic soundtrack album and is also played over the ending credits of the film.[15]

When the single was to be released to radio, it was produced further by Walter Afanasieff who added string and electric guitar, as well as rearranged portions of the song. This version, which runs a little over four and a half minutes, appears on both the 4-track maxi single and Dion's album Let's Talk About Love.[16] At the height of the song's popularity, some radio stations in the US and the UK played an edited version of the song, that had dramatic moments of dialogue from the Jack and Rose lead characters in the film inserted in between Dion's vocal lines.

The lyrics contain an extra line "There is some love that will not go away" between the third chorus and the final verse on the official Celine Dion website[17] and the Let's Talk About Love booklet.

Norwegian singer Sissel Kyrkjebø was scheduled to record the song for the film in 1997, but Dion's vocals were preferred due to Horner's decision to support Dion's career.[18][19][20][21] In a December 2014 interview, Horner quotes: "When I had completed the Titanic [film], I had to decide for Celine Dion or Sissel['s] [vocals]. Sissel I am very close, while Celine I had known since she was 18, and I had already written three film songs for [her]. But that was before Celine was known and filmmakers and marketing people had not done what they should have done for Celine and [her] songs. So I felt I owed her a Titanic chance, but I could [still] have used Sissel there".[22] Instead, Kyrkjebø completed much of the score for the soundtrack album, Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture.[18] Dion accepted to sing a demo for the film, despite initially hesitant to record as she had already done three film songs earlier.[23][24] Years later, Horner chose Kyrkjebø to perform "My Heart Will Go On" on both world premieres of Titanic 3D (2012) and Titanic Live (2015).[19]


Critical reception


AllMusic senior editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that the song "shines the most brilliantly" and marked it as a standout track from the Let's Talk About Love album.[25] Another AllMusic reviewer, single editor Heather Phares, who rated the single 4 out of 5 stars, wrote, "Indeed, her performances of it on VH1 Divas, the 1998 Academy Awards (wearing the film's 'Heart of the Ocean' pendant, no less), and on her 1997 album Let's Talk About Love have cemented 'My Heart Will Go On' as the quintessence of Dion's sweeping, romantic style".[26] Larry Flick from Billboard called it a "stately ballad", noting that the song "woos with romantic lyrics and a melancholy melody that is fleshed out with a weeping flute solo." He added, "There's no denying that Dion can hit notes that shatter glass—and she does so here—but it's a pleasure to hear her build slowly and remind listeners of her ability to pack volumes of emotion in a whisper. A fine single that will add a much-needed touch of class to every station it graces."[27] People Magazine stated that "the dramatics are fitting when she sings "My Heart Will Go On" as a survivor mourning the lover she lost when the big ship went down."[28] Yahoo.com described it as an "emotional power ballad that perfectly captured [Titanic's] romantic yearning".[8] Vulture said that it is a powerful song and has "one of the most glorious key changes in recorded music history", and that "its legacy is eclipsed only by" Whitney Houston's "admittedly far superior" song "I Will Always Love You".[29] Washington Post appreciated how the song was not just tagged on the end of the three-hour film, but has a lyrical motif that was already placed throughout the key moments of the film's love story in order to create a musical narrative.[30]

The song has also received criticism. In 2011, Rolling Stone readers ranked it the seventh worst song of the 1990s, with the magazine writing, "Celine Dion's song and the movie have aged very poorly...Now [the song] probably just makes you cringe".[31] The Atlantic attributed the song's decline in popularity to its overexposure and added that over the years there have been many jokes that parody the song's lyrics by claiming "My Heart Will Go On" goes "on and on and on".[32] Vulture reasoned that it has become fashionable to dislike the song because it "encapsulates most everything that once-enthusiastic moviegoers now dislike about Titanic: It's outdated, cheesy, and overly dramatic".[29] Maxim deemed it "the second most tragic event ever to result from that fabled ocean liner".[32]


Accolades


"My Heart Will Go On" has accumulated multiple awards from prestigious award giving bodies across the world. It won the 1998 Academy Award for Best Original Song.[33] It dominated the 1999 Grammy Awards, winning Record of the Year — marking the first time to be won by a Canadian — Song of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or Television.[34] The song also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song in 1998.[35]

The song won a Japanese Gold Disc Award, for Song of the Year,[44] as well as a Billboard Music Award for Soundtrack Single of the Year.[36][45] Moreover, it also won at MTV Asia Awards for International Song of the Year in 1999.[46]

It has been named one of the Songs of the Century.[47] It is one of the best-selling singles ever in the United Kingdom,[48] the second single released by Dion to sell over a million copies there. This made Dion one of only two female artists to date to have released two million-selling singles in Britain.[49] In December 2007, the song was placed on number 21 on VH1's "100 Greatest Songs of the 90's".[50] In April 2010, the UK radio station Magic 105.4 voted the single the "top movie song of all time" after listeners's votes.[51] It was ranked at number 14 on AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs, celebrating the 100 greatest songs in American film history.[52]


Cultural impact


The song became "imprinted on the movie's legacy", and every listen prompts a reminder of the blockbuster and the hype surrounding it.[32] USA Today agreed that the song will be forever tied to Titanic.[53] The Washington Post says it is the marriage of music and image that make both the song and film greater than the sum of their parts.[30]

Los Angeles Times stated that: “My Heart Will Go On helped make 1998 an amazing year for big pop Ballads.[54] The Atlantic stated that its popularity did not stem from being played at events such as high school proms, weddings, and funerals, but by being indelibly placed into pop culture through numerous plays on the radio station, speakers, and passing cars.[32] Anne T. Donahue from TrackRecord called it "The Greatest Movie Ballad Of All Time" stating: "It changed the game for movie ballads altogether, and the impact was felt immediately."[55] MTV listed 'My Heart Will Go On' as the sixth biggest song of the 90s.[56]

The song, along with Dion's rendition of "The Power of Love", are used by members of siren kings, the New Zealand Polynesian youth subculture who stage modified vehicle public address system loudspeaker competitions. The song is a staple of the competitions, due to the purity and clarity of Dion's voice suiting the audio range for public address systems.[57][58]

In the late 2010s, a pop culture trend emerged on platforms such as YouTube in which the song's iconic key change would be edited in as the soundtrack to a dramatic moment from a sporting match, such as a match winning shot.[59][60] During the pandemic, Barcelona Pianist Performed 'My Heart Will Go On' for His Quarantined Neighbors.[61] In early 2021, DJ at Trump's Washington rally played "My Heart Will Go On" to the crowd.[62]

The film Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar (2021) featured a remix of the song.[63] Bruno Mars opened his first show since early 2020 at MGM, in continuation of his Las Vegas residency and did a rendition of the song.[64] Ariana Grande sang the song with James Corden on a segment at The Late Late Show with James Corden.[65]


Music video


The video was directed by Bille Woodruff and shows Dion singing at the bow of the ship while scenes from the film are inter-cut in between.[66] It was filmed in front of a green screen in Los Angeles. Titanic computer artists filled in the background. On set, Celine provided one special effect, it required her to sing a high speed version of the signature song.[67] In January 2018 the director's cut of the music video appeared on YouTube.[68] It contains unseen footage of Celine including her walking to the bow and a segment which puts her right into the movie.[69]


Live performances


"My Heart Will Go On" was performed by Dion in concert during her Let's Talk About Love World Tour (1998–1999), her Las Vegas residency show A New Day... (2003–2007), her Taking Chances World Tour (2008–2009) and her second Las Vegas residency show Celine (2011–2019). It was also performed during her show "Une seule fois" at Sur les plaines d'Abraham in Quebec City July 27, 2013, during her Tournée Européenne 2013, her Summer Tour 2016, Live 2017 and Live 2018 tours and most recently her Courage World Tour. Dion also performed the song during her BST Hyde Park concert in London on July 5, 2019.

Acclaims

MTV called Dion's performance at the 70th Academy Award 'true perfection', adding: "she sounds flawless as she effortlessly belts out the Best Original Song-winner".[6]


Commercial performance


"My Heart Will Go On" is one of the biggest radio hits and best-selling singles in history, having sold more than 18 million copies worldwide.[70] It was also the worlds' best selling single of 1998 worldwide.[71]

United States

In the United States, the song was given a limited number of copies – 658,000. Regardless, it debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, with sales of 360,000 copies,[72] where it stayed for two weeks. In addition, the song spent ten weeks at number-one on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay, and was number one for two weeks on the Hot 100 Singles Sales. As a testament to the popularity of the song on the radio, the song broke the record for the then-largest radio audience ever, garnering 117 million listeners in February 1998.[73] The single was eventually certified gold in the United States.[74] Billboard reported that the digital copy of the single has sold 1,133,000 units since being available bringing total sales to 1,791,000 copies sold in the US.[75] In 2011 alone, Dion has sold 956,000 digital tracks in the US, with My Heart Will Go On being her biggest digital tracks (163,000 downloads).[76] In an article published by Billboard in November 2019, "My Heart Will Go On" has 588.2 million on-demand streams in the US, making it her most streamed song in the country.[77]

In addition "My Heart Will Go On" reached number one in several other US charts, including, Billboard's Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks,[72] Top 40 Mainstream,[72] Hot Latin Pop Airplay, and Hot Latin Tracks. For the latter, the single became the first English-language song to top the Hot Latin Tracks chart,[72] to which Dion was given a Billboard Latin Music Award for that achievement.

United Kingdom

In the United Kingdom, the song debuted at number one with first week sales of 234,000 copies.[78] As of February 2022, the song has already sold in excess of 2,100,000 units,[79] becoming Dion's second million-selling single in Britain, following "Think Twice" in 1995, and Britain's second-best-selling single of 1998, behind Cher's "Believe".[80] This made her the first solo female artist to have multiple million-selling singles in Britain.[81]

Rest of the world

In Germany, "My Heart Will Go On" was certified 4× platinum for selling over two million copies,[82] and was ranked as one of the most popular singles ever released there.[83] It sold over 1.2 million copies in France, being certified Diamond.

The remixed edition released in June 1998 sold 111,920 copies and was certified Gold for 100,000 copies sold, because maxi-singles are treated as an album.

Internationally, the song was phenomenally successful, spending many weeks at the top position in various countries, including 17 weeks on the Eurochart Hot 100 Singles, 15 weeks in Switzerland, 13 weeks in France and Germany, 11 weeks in the Netherlands and Sweden, 10 weeks in Wallonia, Denmark, Italy, and Norway, seven weeks in Flanders, six weeks in Ireland and Canada, four weeks in Australia and Austria, two weeks in Spain and the United Kingdom, and one week in Finland.
