Eilleen "Shania" Twain (/aɪˈliːn/eye-LEEN,/ʃənaɪə/; born Eilleen Regina Edwards;
August 28, 1965) is a Canadian singer and songwriter. She has sold over 100 million
records, making her the best-selling female artist in country music history and
among the best-selling
music artists of all time. Her success garnered her
several honorific titles including the "Queen
of Country Pop". While Billboard named her as the leader of the '90s country-pop crossover stars.
Raised in Timmins,
Ontario, Twain
pursued singing and songwriting from a young age before signing with Mercury
Nashville Records in the early 1990s. Her self-titled
debut studio album was a commercial failure
upon release in 1993. After collaborating with producer and later husband Robert John
"Mutt" Lange, Twain rose to fame with her
second studio album, The Woman in
Me (1995), which brought her widespread
success. It sold over 20 million copies worldwide, spawned eight singles,
including "Any Man of Mine" and
earned her a Grammy Award. Her
third studio album, Come On Over (1997),
became the best-selling
studio album by a female act in any genre and the
best-selling country album of all time, selling over 40 million copies
worldwide. Come On Over produced twelve singles, including "You're Still
the One", "From This Moment On",
"That Don't
Impress Me Much" and "Man! I Feel Like a
Woman!" and earned Twain four Grammy Awards. Her
fourth studio album, Up! (2002), spawned
eight singles, including "I'm Gonna
Getcha Good!", "Ka-Ching!"
and "Forever and
for Always", selling over 20 million
copies worldwide, also being certified Diamond in the United States.
In 2004, after releasing her Greatest Hits album, which produced three new singles including "Party for Two",
Twain entered a hiatus, revealing years later that diagnoses with Lyme disease and dysphonia led to a
severely weakened singing voice. She chronicled her vocal rehabilitation on the
OWN miniseries Why Not? with
Shania Twain, released her first single in
seven years in 2012, "Today Is Your Day",
and published an autobiography, From This Moment On. Twain returned to
performing the following year with an exclusive concert residency at The Colosseum
at Caesars Palace, Shania: Still
the One, which ran until 2014. In 2015, she launched
the North American Rock This
Country Tour, which was billed as her
farewell tour. Twain released her first studio album in 15 years in 2017, Now,
and embarked on the Now Tour in 2018. In 2019, she started her second Las Vegas residency, Let's Go! at the Zappos Theater.
Twain has received five Grammy Awards, a World Music Award, 27 BMI Songwriter Awards, stars on Canada's Walk
of Fame and the Hollywood
Walk of Fame, and an induction into the Canadian
Music Hall of Fame. According to the RIAA she is the only
female artist in history to have three (consecutive) albums certified Diamond by the RIAA and is the sixth best-selling female artist in the United States. Altogether, Twain is ranked as the 10th
best-selling artist of the Nielsen SoundScan era. Billboard listed Twain as the 13th Greatest Music Video Female Solo Artist of
all time (42nd overall).
"When You Kiss Me" is a song
recorded by Canadian singer Shania Twain.
It was the seventh single overall released from her fourth studio álbum Up! (2002). The
song was written by Twain and her then-husband Robert John
"Mutt" Lange. Despite Twain admitting on
several occasions that "When You Kiss Me" is her favorite ballad
off Up!, it was excluded from her 2004 Greatest Hits album. Twain
also performed the song on the Up! Tour.
The song found mild success in Europe and
Australia, and it was the only non-single from the album to chart on the Billboard
Country Chart in the United States.
Although, the music video was
later released to CMT in that country. In the British Isles,
"When You Kiss Me" was released as a double A-side with "Up!",
but was overpowered by the latter single. The DVD release of the song marked
Shania's first and only DVD single. The song was also released as the last
single to Canadian country radio.
This could be it, I
think I'm in love
It's love this time
It just seems to fit, I think I'm in love
This love is mine
I can see you with me
when I'm older
All my lonely nights are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my
shoulders (the world just goes away)
Chorus:
Oh, when you kiss me
I know you miss me –
and when you're with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me that you
adore me - oh, when you kiss me
Oh, yeah
You are the one, I
think I'm in love
Life has begun
I can see the two of
us together
I know I'm gonna be with you forever
Love couldn't be any better
Repeat Chorus
Instrumental Solo
I can see you with me
when I'm older
All my lonely nights are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my
shoulders (the world just goes away)
Repeat Chorus
And when you kiss me
I know you miss me
Oh, the world just goes away
When you kiss me.
