Essential Albums
- When Shania Twain released her third album Come On Over in 1997, the Canadian singer-songwriter’s star was already swiftly on the rise. The Woman in Me, which came out two years prior, produced the breakthrough hits “Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?” and “Any Man of Mine,” smashing sales records and setting the stage for Twain to be one of the genre’s next great superstars. Come On Over did exactly that, establishing Twain not just as one of country’s biggest acts but as one of its greatest crossover successes, too. Introduced by lead single “Love Gets Me Every Time,” Come On Over produced an unheard-of 12 singles over the course of its promotion, three of which hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart. It’s certified 2x Diamond in the United States and has sold millions of copies worldwide, making Come On Over, according to Guinness World Records, the world’s highest-selling album by a female solo artist. Those stats are impressive, to be sure—and there are plenty more where those came from—but it’s the groundbreaking fusion of country and pop that made the album an instant smash, one that continues to have a lasting impact 25 years later. Opening track “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” has transcended mere single status to a globally beloved anthem, embraced by anyone looking to tap into some feisty feminine energy. Two-time Grammy-winning “You’re Still the One” is a modern romantic standard, even if its subject, album producer and Twain’s ex-husband Mutt Lange, is no longer in the picture and no longer still the one. “That Don’t Impress Me Much” is all sass and swagger, with a still-iconic call-out to Brad Pitt (sorry, Brad). Yet those tracks merely scratch the surface of what makes Come On Over a classic. Twain’s voice was at its finest, with the dynamic sequencing offering her ample opportunity to show off the subtleties of her range, whether it’s an empowering belt or a vulnerable quaver. Lange’s production drew fearlessly from pop, rock, and even dance music, keeping country as a through line but one loose enough to make space for Twain’s kaleidoscopic sonic vision. While Come On Over is one landmark album within a legendary career, the album and Twain herself are widely cited as an influence by artists of all stripes, including Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Brittney Spencer, Maren Morris, and Caitlin Rose. That legacy is celebrated with three tracks exclusive to Apple Music, on which Elton John and Chris Martin each join Twain on separate, live versions of “You’re Still the One” while Nick Jonas duets on “Party for Two.”
- Shania Twain wasn’t the first pop-savvy country superstar to embody feisty female self-determination. But her second album, 1995’s The Woman in Me, was a revelation and, for Nashville, something of a revolution, too. Despite still being fairly new to the industry, the Canadian-born artist exercised independence from a system that relied on the songwriting material, studio direction, and cautious marketing strategies of Music Row pros. She cowrote and recorded the entire album with her then-husband, producer Mutt Lange, who’d specialized in thundering backbeats and arena-rock licks in his work with AC/DC and Def Leppard. The dozen tracks were stocked with taut, galvanizing hooks and an attitude that was down-to-earth, but sparkled with modern irreverence, forwardness, and youthful kick. The project proved to be a broadly appealing blockbuster, spinning off a string of chart-toppers, including the frisky, fiddle-accented shuffle “Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?,” the honky-tonk stomp “Any Man of Mine,” and the roadhouse rocker "(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!"

About Shania Twain
Before Shania Twain’s rise in the mid-’90s, no other singer had combined two roles that, at the time, seemed entirely disparate: rootin’, tootin’ country star and glamorous pop diva. That she made it look so easy is a testament to the tenacity long shown by the performer who was born in 1965 and raised in the Canadian small town of Timmins, Ontario. After not gaining much headway during her early stint as a rock performer under her original name of Eilleen Twain, or in her first years after becoming Shania and signing to Mercury Nashville, she made a fortuitous alliance with Robert John “Mutt” Lange. On Twain’s albums The Woman In Me (1995) and Come On Over (1997), her producer (and future husband) applied the skills he learned making albums with AC/DC and Def Leppard to ensure that Twain’s shiny country-pop confections had just as much impact as any arena-ready rocker. While the likes of “You’re Still the One” and “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” dominated dance floors and jukeboxes, “Forever and for Always” and other ballads showcased her warm contralto voice and became indispensable on wedding playlists. By the time she released her fourth album, Up!, in 2002, Twain was one of country music’s biggest-selling artists. Overcoming personal hardships like the end of her marriage to Lange and voice and health problems that nearly silenced her, she again displayed her strength, as well as a new sense of vulnerability, on 2017’s Now, her first studio album in 15 years and her second to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Her collaboration with masked alt-country maverick Orville Peck on her 2020 single “Legends Never Die” was another thrilling sign of Shania’s eagerness to reinvent herself. Since 2020, she's also been the host of Home Now Radio on Apple Music Hits.
