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". Director

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 as she felt she was pushing her luck by singing another film theme song after " Beauty and the Beast" and " Because You Loved Me". 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.


Recording

James Cameron felt obligated to include a theme song to promote the film.

also stated that the soundtrack album was supposed to be "No song, no Céline". 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. 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".

The song is written in the key of

s. The song features both acoustic and electronic instrumentation. Dion's vocal performance is described as "emotional" and "demanding" by Pandora Radio.


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. 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''. 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 and the Let's Talk About Love booklet.


Sissel Kyrkjebø recording

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. In a December 2014 interview, Horner quotes: "When I had completed the ''Titanic'' ilm I had to decide for Celine Dion or Sissel s ocals Sissel I am very close, while Celine I had known since she was 18, and I had already written three film songs for er But that was before Celine was known and filmmakers and marketing people had not done what they should have done for Celine and ersongs. So I felt I owed her a ''Titanic'' chance, but I could tillhave used Sissel there". Instead, Kyrkjebø completed much of the

for the soundtrack album, ''Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture''. Dion accepted to sing a demo for the film, despite initially hesitant to record as she had already done three film songs earlier. Years later, Horner chose Kyrkjebø to perform "My Heart Will Go On" on both world premieres of ''Titanic 3D'' (2012) and ''Titanic Live'' (2015).

wrote that the song "shines the most brilliantly" and marked it as a standout track from the ''Let's Talk About Love'' album. 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".

'' 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." '' 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." Yahoo.com described it as an "emotional power ballad that perfectly captured 'Titanic''sromantic yearning". '' 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 "

". '' 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. 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

probably just makes you cringe". '' 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". ''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". '' Maxim'' deemed it "the second most tragic event ever to result from that fabled ocean liner".

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. '' USA Today'' agreed that the song will be forever tied to ''Titanic''. '' 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. Los Angeles Times stated that: “''My Heart Will Go On'' helped make 1998 an amazing year for big pop Ballads. ''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. 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."

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. 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.
