{|James Horner|}'s score for {|James Cameron|}'s epic romance {|Titanic|} is much like the film itself -- against all expectations, it delivers exactly what it promises. His score is grand, without falling into typical melodrama, and delicately romantic, without being sickly sentimental; it offers genuine emotion and excitement, with the haunting vocals of Norwegian singer {|Sissel|} providing a nice counterpoint to {|Horner|}'s blend of strings, vocals, orchestras, and synthesizers. {|Celine Dion|}'s {|My Heart Will Go On|} may feel a little like an afterthought, especially after experiencing {|Horner|}'s wrenching, affecting score, but its heart is in the right place. Nevertheless, it is {|Horner|}'s instrumental work and its whirlwind of emotions that makes the score of {|Titanic|} a voyage worth repeating. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Less
