"You're Still the One" is a song recorded by Canadian singer Shania Twain. It was released as the third single from her third studio album Come On Over (1997). The song was written by Twain and Robert John "Mutt" Lange and produced by Lange. It was released in the US on January 27, 1998, and was Twain's first single to be released to pop radio.
"You're Still the One" peaked at number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks, becoming Twain's first top-ten hit in the US. Although it never topped the chart, the song is recognized as Twain's most successful crossover single and is one of her most successful singles at country radio. In Canada, the song peaked at number seven, and internationally, it reached number one in Australia for four weeks, number three in Ireland, and the top 10 in the Netherlands, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
"You're Still the One" was nominated for four Grammy Awards in 1999, winning two. It won Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance and lost Record of the Year and Song of the Year to fellow Canadian, Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On". It was ranked number 46 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '90s.
When Shania Twain and Robert John "Mutt" Lange became romantically involved in the mid 1990s, there was criticism of their relationship, namely claims that the age difference was extreme (he being 17 years older than her), and that Twain was solely using him to further her career. In essence, the critics did not expect their relationship to last. Twain disagreed with these criticisms and wanted to address them in public and this led to her writing "You're Still the One". In an interview with Top of the Pops in 1999, she mentioned that she and Lange never intended to write a song about themselves, but that they were simply influenced by the press criticism.
In her 2011 memoir From This Moment On, she described the process of writing the song: she and Lange each wrote separate ideas for songs for the album Come on Over and collated them together later. She stated that Lange singing the counter line as backing vocals in the song got her "feeling very excited" and led her to sing the chorus melody and both to come up with the title "You're Still the One". In this ode to the union between her and Lange, Twain expresses her happiness with their relationship, and satisfaction with proving the critics wrong.
Twain and Lange divorced twelve years later in 2010 after 17 years of marriage, due to an affair between Lange and her best friend. In her biography, Twain states that she continues to cherish the song in memory of her mother and of her stepfather. She believes that they were meant to be together and that, in spite of all the trials they have been through, her parents shared a very pure and true love.
The music video for "You're Still the One" was shot in Malibu and Los Angeles in blue-tinted monochrome and was directed by David Hogan. It was released on January 26, 1998, on CMT.
It depicts Twain on a beach at night and features model John Devoe, who later appeared in her video for "That Don't Impress Me Much". The video received heavy rotation, it was Twain's first video to be played on non-country-specific stations such as MTV, VH1, and MuchMusic. The video won awards at the Billboard Music Video Awards, VH1 Viewer's Choice Awards, and was nominated for an MTV Video Music Award. Two versions of the video were made, one with the 'Original Album Version', released to country channels, and the 'International Version' released to pop and international stations. The 'International Version' of the video is available on Twain's compilations Come On Over: Video Collection (1999) and The Platinum Collection (2001).
