A Celine Dion song is getting a huge bump on streaming services for a very macabre reason. “My Heart Will Go On,” theme from the movie “Titanic,” has racked up over half a million Spotify streams since the news of the OceanGate submersible made headlines after its implosion. Dion’s hit from the 1997 Oscar-winning movie, had been played on the music streamer 522,864 as of Thursday, with the weekend bringing in even more streams. As we previously reported, the sub known as The Titan was last seen June 18th before losing communication with its partner above water. Those who died in the implosion include the CEO of the company, Stockton Rush, British explorer Hamish Harding, diver Paul-Henry Nargeolet, and Pakistani father and son businessman Shahzada and Suleman Dawood.
