My Heart Will Go On

"My Heart Will Go On" is a song recorded by the Canadian singer Celine Dion as the theme for the 1997 film Titanic. Composed by James Horner with lyrics by Will Jennings, it was issued internationally as a single by Columbia Records and Epic Records on November 24, 1997, and appeared on Dion's album Let's Talk About Love (1997) and the Titanic soundtrack.

Horner developed the melody as an instrumental motif for Titanic before proposing a vocal version. The Titanic director, James Cameron, initially opposed the inclusion of a pop ballad, but approved it after hearing Horner's demo. Horner and Simon Franglen produced the film version, while Walter Afanasieff produced the recording for Let's Talk About Love and the commercial single. The music video was directed by Bille Woodruff.

"My Heart Will Go On" topped charts in more than 25 countries and became the best-selling single of 1998. With estimated global sales exceeding 18 million copies, it is the second best-selling single by a woman and one of the best-selling singles of all time. It has earned gold or higher certifications in 18 countries, including diamond in France.
