"Nothing Broken but My Heart" is a song by Canadian singer Celine Dion, recorded for her second English-language album, Celine Dion (1992). It was released as the third single in Canada, United States and Japan in August 1992, and fourth in Australia in January 1993.[1][2] "Nothing Broken but My Heart" was written by Diane Warren and produced by Walter Afanasieff. It topped the adult contemporary charts in the United States and Canada. The song was the second Dion's single which reached number-one position on the US Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart. It peaked at number three in Canada and number 29 in the United States. In 1994, "Nothing Broken but My Heart" won an ASCAP Pop Award for most performed song in the United States.[3]
Critical reception[]
Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as a "melodramatic power ballad", noting that its "booming production values and a tearful vocal will push all the right buttons".[4] Randy Clark from Cashbox said it is "full of Celine's brilliant power, and sounds like it might be another AC success."[5] Diane Rufer and Ron Fell from the Gavin Report commented, "A Diane Warren song sung by Ms. Dion's velvet hammer voice. An unbeatable combination does it again".[6] Christopher Smith from TalkAboutPopMusic stated that it "throws everything possible in, some electric guitars, Celine’s soaring vocals and a beautiful, long fade out".[7]
Music video[]
The accompanying music video for "Nothing Broken but My Heart" was made for the edited version, because the original track lasts almost six minutes. It was released in August 1992 and features actors practicing the Romeo and Juliet play. It was directed by Lyne Charlebois and filmed in Montreal.
