Yeah same! Like, I feel like "The Titanic Song" is slightly more iconic for some reason.

 

[Baechu]

The fact that I thought what song My heart will go on was the moment I read it, I'd say I Will always love you

I believe it's because "The Titanic" as movie, had way more cultural impact than "The bodyguard". Not to discredit Whitney's acting but people barely remember the movie, or associate "I will always love you" with it. Even "I have nothing" was featured there but nobody recalls it was part of the soundtrack.

This is true! I completely forgot I Have Nothing was apart of the soundtrack too! Iconic soundtrack

The Titanic song, easily. It was like the first English song a lot of us ever heard.

I say this as someone who was actually around when Titanic was released
I can't overstate enough how massive it was lol. My parents took me with them to the movie theater for a Hollywood movie, no dubs, it was packed. 7 year old me remembers

And the song used to play on all the music channels.

Yeah my parents said the same thing. They said Celine Dion herself was way bigger than Whitney Houston ever was, when they were growing up.

Yeah it was probably different in North America but here people didn't really know Whitney all that much until later, but Celine Dion became a household name just for that one song lol. Most of us don't know any of her other songs though

It was basically Celine and then Britney and Backstreet in terms of which Western artists were most popular here. Other than MJ of course.

Ngl I'm really surprised by the results so far
I Will Always Love You is just that song. It's one of those songs that people sing just to prove they can, it's a meme, it's essentially synonymous with Whitney if not even bigger than she is
I've really never heard the Titanic song outside of Titanic

Wow two different worlds. Both songs were almost equally iconic here in Canada, with MHWGO just having a bit more edge. Well ig, at our age, it really depends who our parents listened to the most since these songs came out when we were way young.
