Shania Twain released ‘Poor Me’ today, a brand new track from her highly anticipated upcoming album, ‘NOW’.
Shania recently released the full deluxe track listing for the upcoming Sep. 29 release to eager fans. ‘Poor Me’ is another glimpse into ‘NOW’ which was solely written by and co-produced by Shania. Also, released today is the brand new lyric video for ‘Poor Me’.
Offered as both a 16-track deluxe and a 12-track standard album, both versions of ‘NOW’ will feature Shania’s debut single, ‘Life’s About To Get Good’ and ‘Poor Me’. Shania co-produced her upcoming record with four producers across the 16 tracks including Matthew Koma, Ron Aniello (Bruce Springsteen, Gavin DeGraw), Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, Shawn Mendes) and Jacquire King (Kings of Leon, Norah Jones).
Shania discusses being the sole songwriter of her new music,
“I’m a songwriter first. That absolutely drives everything. It was a big step toward independence. I pushed myself, knowing it was going to scare me and knowing that I, alone, was responsible for however it turned out. I love collaborating, but I didn’t want any emotional, psychological, or musical influence. The minute you invite somebody into that space, you’re influenced. And then it wouldn’t be me. It wouldn’t be pure. This may be the purest work I ever do.”
Shania is a five-time GRAMMY Award-winner and the reigning Queen of Country Pop. With more than 90 million albums sold worldwide and U.S. sales topping 34.5 million, Shania remains the top-selling female country artist of all time. Shania’s albums include her Platinum-selling 1993 debut, ‘SHANIA TWAIN’; the GRAMMY Award-winning, Double Diamond-selling 1995 release, ‘THE WOMAN IN ME’; ‘COME ON OVER’, the best-selling studio album in Soundscan history by a female artist in any genre and the best-selling country album of all time with over 40 million units sold worldwide; and ‘UP!’, Shania’s third consecutive Diamond-selling album release.
Recognizing her indelible impact and achievements in music, Shania is the first and only female artist to receive CMT’s Artist of a Lifetime Award and the Country Music Hall of Fame recently opened the Shania Twain: Rock This Country exhibit.

I Feel Like A Woman!’.
