What song became more well-known because it was featured in a film rather than when it was initially released?

One song that gained significant recognition due to its inclusion in a movie is “My Heart Will Go On” by Celine Dion. While the song was initially released as part of Dion’s album “Let’s Talk About Love” in 1997, it became globally famous after being featured as the love theme for the blockbuster film “Titanic,” which was released the same year. The film’s massive success and emotional storytelling amplified the song’s impact, making it synonymous with the movie’s tragic romance between the main characters, Jack and Rose. “My Heart Will Go On” went on to win numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Original Song and the Grammy Award for Record of the Year, primarily because of its association with “Titanic.” This demonstrates how a song’s association with a successful film can propel it to greater heights of fame, sometimes overshadowing its original release.
