My Heart Will Go On and Titanic are both more Iconic than Shallow and ASIB.

Just Speaking of songs, Shallow is still very recent. We don't know how well remembered and beloved the song will be in 10 years. Even at this point, it doesn't even come close to MHWGO.

MHWGO is 1000% more iconic...the Shallow we got was very very stripped back and even had people yelling in the background just...no

If it was the polished trailer version we heard perhaps...

Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

This isn't really fair to Gaga. Most of Celene Dion's fame is only due to that one song. Even my dog and babies love it. lol

The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

Celine 100%. 

Too early to tell with Shallow. 

Lemme go stream My Heart Will Go On and have a panic attack thinking I'm drowning.

MHWGO is one of those lightning in a bottle songs. I'm not sure it can get more iconic than that.

Strung out for another taste

I really don’t understand why especially Shallow and ARUTW had the screaming left in them. I guess it was for effect but it’s really disorienting. Great songs tho!

ot: MHWGO but shallow is pretty iconic too.

It’s too early for Shallow, not a fair comparison!

It’s funny coz at the time everyone in my grade at school was cringing at MHWGO. Nobody wanted to admit they liked it. Unbreak My Heart by Toni Braxton was the bigger ballad in ‘98 in the sense that all the cool kids weren’t afraid to publicly listen to it, and it felt like it we chose to hear it instead of it being shoved down our throats.

So, I chose Shallow. I know it’s too soon, but it just feels more authentic than MHWGO. The fact that it’s a duet, and was the first big male-female duet since the damn 80s (since 1987’s I’ve Had The Time of My Life from the film Dirty Dancing) makes it really special. It truly caught the whole world off guard. Nobody expected Gaga to be such a good actress, nobody expected Bradley Cooper to be such a good singer, and everyone that DIDN’T pay attention to Joanne didn’t expect a song like that from Gaga. In fact, many couldn’t even believe that it was her singing.

In years to come Shallow will become a gold standard ballad for generations to come. Maybe even like The Eagle’s Hotel California. It’s got that same classic country rock feel. MHWGO is writtenvery predictably and sounds like it was made for a movie.
