Celine Dion’s performance of her blockbuster hit, “My Heart Will Go On,” at the 1998 GRAMMYs was understated, orchestral and full of feeling.
In the late 1990s, arguably no song loomed larger in mainstream culture than Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On.”
A sweeping, heart-tugging power ballad about finding hope after tragedy, the song was written for and appeared on the soundtrack of the movie Titanic.
As such, it quickly became synonymous with James Cameron’s blockbuster film recounting of the maritime tragedy — and the love story that took place on the doomed passenger liner.
In this episode of GRAMMY Rewind, watch Dion take the GRAMMYs stage in 1998 to perform “My Heart Will Go On.” Despite the song being a worldwide mega-hit, Dion kept things relatively understated on the GRAMMYs stage.
