One of Celine Dion's classic hits is making rounds on social media and it amassed over half a million streams on Spotify amid the recent issue regarding the missing submersible that traveled to the bottom of the ocean to see the Titanic face-to-face.

According to a news outlet, the famous song "My Heart Will Go On," originally released in 1997," has been getting a lot of stream counts after the underwater tragedy.

It was reported that there have been 500,000 streams since the incident and it is expected to go higher in the following days.

The classic song became a favorite amongst fans whether they are a supporter of the French-Canadian superstar or not as it was the official soundtrack of James Cameron's 1997 movie "Titanic" which stars Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio, and many more.

Titanic Submersible Tragedy

The voyage to see the ruins of the Titanic made headlines over the past few days as the submersible named "The Titan sub" by OceanGate Expeditions lost contact from the people above.

According to New York Post, the sub, which had five crew members inside, went missing on Sunday, June 18, after it failed to return to its mothership in the surface.

Search and rescue operations were deployed near the area where the sub was last located, but on Thursday, the Coast Guard made an announcement, saying the people inside the vessel are believed to be dead due to a "catastrophic implotion." (via Yahoo! News)

James Cameron, the famed director who claimed to be a part of the small submersible community and had seen the actual Titanic ruins for over 33 times, said he knew the sub had imploded the following day after being announced that it was missing.

Celine Dion Updates

The recent news comes a few weeks after Celine Dion canceled the remainder of her scheduled tour date due to the health woe that she had been facing for months.

Taking to her official Instagram account, the singer shared an official statement, confirming that the series of shows would no longer push through because touring could be hard for her. (via CBS News)

"Even though it breaks my heart, it's best that we cancel everything now until I'm really ready to be back on stage again. I want you all to know, I'm not giving up," she added.
