Shania Twain says there is one song she couldn’t sing after divorce

Shania Twain is beloved by country music and pop fans across the globe, and she has an impressive catalog of songs that she can go to during her shows.

But one of the most beloved across both groups is, “You’re Still the One.”

The 60-year-old singer dropped the song in the late 1990s and it became a major hit. But she wrote that for her husband at the time, music producer Robert “Mutt” Lange. So, naturally, when they split up, she admitted in a recent interview that she fell out of love with her hit for quite some time.

“Well, I’m not just saying this because it seems obvious, but ‘You’re Still the One’ really is one of my favorites to do live,” she said in an interview with ETalk.

“I’ve gone through quite a few stages with that song of, not really even wanting to sing it live for a while, just thinking, ‘Well, okay, I’m divorced now, does it really mean what it used to mean when I wrote it?’”

Twain said that she was able to gain “newfound appreciation” for the song though when she viewed it from her fans’ perspective.

“It’s mostly fans, fans love it, they want to hear it,” she said. “It means so much to them in so many ways. They’re either getting married to it, or have been married to it, or had an anniversary, or a friendship, or whatever it is.

“It’s more the meaning that it is, or that it represents, to everybody else that makes it so meaningful to me again.”

Alos, she shared good news for her fans, announcing that she is in the process of making a seventh album that is “going to be different than maybe what anyone is expecting.”

People Magazine reported that “You’re Still the One” was nominated for four Grammy Awards in 1999 and took home two, winning for Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance.

The outlet said the song spent 42 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, taking the top spot on May 2, 1998, and hanging there for two weeks.

Twain and Lange were married in 1993 and divorced in 2008.
