Céline Dion followed successful Falling into You with Let's Talk About Love, which she publicized as its sequel. The recording process took place in London, New York, and Los Angeles, and featured a host of special guests: Barbra Streisand on "Tell Him", the Bee Gees on "Immortality", and world-renowned tenor Luciano Pavarotti on "I Hate You Then I Love You". Other musicians included Carole King and Sir George Martin - the famous The Beatles producer on "The Reason", Bryan Adams on "Let's Talk About Love", and Jamaican singer Diana King, who added a reggae tinge to "Treat Her Like a Lady".[7]
The most successful single from the album became the classically influenced ballad "My Heart Will Go On", which was composed by James Horner, and produced by Horner and Walter Afanasieff. Serving as the love theme for the 1997 blockbuster film Titanic, the song topped the charts in most countries across the world, and has become Dion's signature song. It won an Academy Award for Best Original Song, four Grammy Awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Song Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media, and many other awards around the world. Let's Talk About Love was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album and "Tell Him" for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals.
Let's Talk About Love includes the following covers: "Treat Her Like a Lady" by Diana King, "Love Is on the Way" by Billy Porter, "When I Need You" by Leo Sayer, "Let's Talk About Love", which is an English-language version of the French-language song "Puisque Tu Pars" by Jean-Jacques Goldman, and "Amar Haciendo el Amor", a Spanish version of the song "You Only Love Once" by Billy Mann. "I Hate You Then I Love You" is an English adaptation of "Grande grande grande," recorded by Italian singer, Mina; the English cover was previously recorded by other artists, including Shirley Bassey and Julio Iglesias, both of whose versions were under the title "Never, never, never," and neither of which were duets.
After the success of Let's Talk About Love, Dion embarked on the 1998-99 Let's Talk About Love Tour.
