"My Heart Will Go On" is a song performed by the Canadian singer Celine Dion, used as the theme for the 1997 film Titanic. It was composed by James Horner, with lyrics by Will Jennings, and produced by Horner, Walter Afanasieff and Simon Franglen.[1][2] It was released as a single internationally by Columbia and Epic on November 24, 1997, and included on Dion's album Let's Talk About Love (1997) and the Titanic soundtrack.
Horner composed the basis of "My Heart Will Go On" as a motif for Titanic soundtrack, and suggested developing it into a song. The director, James Cameron, felt a pop song would be inappropriate for the film, but agreed after hearing the demo. The final version was arranged by Afanasieff. The music video was directed by Bille Woodruff.
"My Heart Will Go On" is considered Dion's signature song.[3] It topped the charts in more than 25 countries and was the best-selling single of 1998.[4] With worldwide sales estimated at more than 18 million, it is the second-best-selling single by a woman in music history and one of the best-selling singles of all time.[5][6] It was included in the list of Songs of the Century by the Recording Industry Association of America and the National Endowment for the Arts.
