Let's Talk About Love was conceived as an international collaboration, featuring Barbra Streisand on "Tell Him," the Bee Gees, Carole King, and Sir George Martin as producer on two tracks, among others. Its commercial performance was driven entirely by "My Heart Will Go On," recorded as the theme for the film Titanic. The single reached #1 on the Hot 100, became one of the best-selling singles of all time, and won four Grammy Awards at the 41st Grammy Awards in 1999: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and Best Song Written for Visual Media. The album sold over 31 million copies worldwide and was certified 11× Platinum in the US.
Let's Talk About Love is the fifth English-language studio album by Celine Dion, released in November 1997 on Epic Records and produced by David Foster, Ric Wake, Bryan Adams, Jim Steinman, and Corey Rooney. The album was released at the peak of Dion's commercial power, featuring 'My Heart Will Go On,' written by James Horner and Will Jennings for the film Titanic, which became one of the best-selling singles in history. The song's four-octave emotional sweep and its connection to the blockbuster film made it an instant cultural phenomenon, topping charts in dozens of countries simultaneously. The album itself sold over thirty-one million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. Let's Talk About Love is the definitive document of Celine Dion's commercial dominance in the late 1990s.
