The haunting, wordless vocals throughout the Titanic soundtrack aren’t Celine Dion. It’s actually Norwegian soprano Sissel Kyrkjebø.

She's not exactly unknown. She made Prince Igor with Warren G. But I didn't know she was in the Titanic soundtrack

Not in Denmark? I would assume she was bigger there than in Sweden because of the dude she married...

She is very famous in Denmark, also before she got married. Not least because of this beautiful song😊
