As a lifestyle expert with an affinity for music and a keen eye for storytelling, I find Shania Twain to be nothing short of awe-inspiring. Her journey from a small town in Canada to the top of the international pop scene is a testament to resilience, talent, and sheer determination. What sets her apart, however, is not just her music but also her life experiences that have shaped her into the woman she is today.
Known as one of the most celebrated singers of her era, Shania Twain left an indelible mark on music history in the 1990s by topping international pop charts and selling countless records worldwide. Rising to iconic status, she faced difficult, sorrowful, and heart-wrenching experiences throughout her life. It was recently announced that she will headline the Legends slot at Glastonbury Festival in 2024. As the Queen of Country Pop prepares to celebrate her 59th birthday, we revisit some of her most memorable songs.
1. No One Needs to Know
In collaboration with her spouse, Mutt Lange, Twain wrote the playful and tricky track “No One Needs To Know.” This tune served as the sixth single from her album titled “The Woman in Me.” Remarkably, it was her third consecutive number-one hit on country radio, making a total of four overall. Furthermore, this song was featured in the soundtrack for the 1996 disaster movie Twister.
2. Don’t Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)
The tune “Come On Over,” which was the second single from her album by the same name, was a collaboration between her and her spouse, Mutt Lange. This catchy blend of country and pop music became the seventh track released and enjoyed global top 10 chart success.
3. That Don’t Impress Me Much
In the late 1990s, Shania Twain became a globally recognized star thanks to her iconic pop song ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’, from her album Come On Over. This song was a subtle critique of three egotistical tutors whom she had dismissed. Interestingly, the mention of Brad Pitt in the lyrics stemmed from a well-known scandal involving his racy photo that leaked in Playgirl magazine. Shania wrote this track on Christmas Day and her choice of name for the song hinted at her indifference towards such celebrity dramas. However, during that time, it didn’t harm Pitt’s career trajectory negatively.
4. I’m Gonna Getcha Good!
Following the tremendous triumph of Come on Over, Shania encountered the difficulty of producing another hit. However, she managed to do so with ‘I’m Gonna Getcha Good!,’ serving as the lead single from her 2002 album Up! This song further cemented her status as a worldwide music legend and helped her secure a top-10 position globally, solidifying her standing.
5. You’ve Got a Way
From the immensely popular album “Come On Over,” the last song has become a favorite for weddings. In the 1999 film “Nothing Hall,” it was played during the end credits, featuring a slightly more pop-oriented remix compared to its original appearance on the album.
6. Any Man of Mine
1. For the very first time, Shania reached the number one spot on the country charts in America with this song and broke into the mainstream top 40 for the first time as well. The second single from “The Woman in Me” has been re-interpreted by numerous country musicians, including Lady A, during their tour in 2015.
7. Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?
This title is certainly reminiscent of a classic country song! It was her debut single from the 1995 album titled “The Woman I Am,” which she co-wrote with her partner at the time, Mutt Lange. It quickly became one of Shania’s most successful singles in the United States.
8. You’re Still the One
1. The hit tune catapulted Shania to fame, climbing country charts in America and resonating on radios globally. One of the standout tracks from Shania’s record-breaking Come On Over album was penned by Shania and her former partner Robert ‘Mutt’ Lange. Their romance blossomed during the mid-1990s, but their significant age gap drew criticism from some quarters. Lange is nearly two decades older than Shania. Despite the naysayers, Shania declared her confidence in the longevity of their relationship and expressed it through a song. Regrettably, they parted ways in 2010 after divorcing.
9. From This Moment On
At a soccer match in Italy, Shania Twain penned an exceptional country ballad titled ‘From This Moment On’ from her album Come On Over. In the beginning, she believed this song would be fitting for Celine Dion, but later decided it would work better as a duet. Originally, Elton John was chosen to collaborate on the track, but ultimately selected country artist Bryan White instead.
10. Man! I Feel Like a Woman
Shania Twain’s album Come On Over, which became a massive hit, drew inspiration from her personal experiences working at Deerhurst Resort in Ontario following the unfortunate deaths of her parents in a car crash. The music video for this album paid tribute to Robert Palmer’s ‘Addicted to Love’ and was influenced by the drag performers she encountered at the resort.
