Shania Twain's success is legendary selling millions of albums and concert tickets, but the road wasn't easy or immediate. The few singles she had, and the album before this had virtually no traction. The first song from her second album The Woman In Me - Who's Bed Have Your Boots Been Under - had decent success, going top 15. But this catchy song, new sound, and super slick video got her noticed in a way none of us could have imagined at the time. What gives this song significance as to being important is this - this gave us Shania Twain and the rest is history. You would be hard pressed to find anyone anywhere who doesn't know every word to this song and is willing to sing it loudly whenever it comes on. This is simply a gigantic hit, her first #1 that led to a string of #1's that catapulted her to heights never heard of. This also personifies that distinct "Shania Sound." That sound they found that made it crystal clear beyond any measure who was on the radio for those 4 minutes. Most artists have a big break song, that's just the nature of our biz. But this took a new artist with very little success and sent her into an orbit to become the record setting star that dominated the country charts and sales for years. Then eventually becoming a pop star, and a pop culture phenomenon. How can you measure the importance of a song? When it's 30 years later and it's played on stations all over the country, and still sounds like it fits in. She was ahead of the game.
