In 1997, Shania Twain hooked up with producer Robert "Mutt" Lange in more ways than one--the two eventually were married! Come On Over is the highest-selling country album by RIAA (20 times Platinum), which mistakenly counts a double album as two albums sold. When you realize that 10 million people actually bought the album, it in fact ranks third among country albums for the number of people that have purchased the album. Wikipedia makes the same mistake, saying that it is the top-selling album from a female artist, when in fact more copies were sold by another album in the Top 100 Albums of All-Time in the Rock Era*.
Nevertheless, Come On Over was a monster album. It reached #2 for two weeks, spent 26 weeks in the Top 10 and 151 on the album chart. It has a good but not excellent Track Rating* of 8.44. The album did not reach #1 in the United States (from which this list if built on) but it did reach #1 in Argentina, Belgium Canada, Denmark, Holland, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway and the U.K. The album did, however, set a record for the most weeks inside the Top 20 in the United States with 112.
The album was released in three different versions and if you are considering it, you need to be aware of the differences. The original country version was released in 1997, a "pop" version was released in 1998 and an international version was released in 1999. The biggest difference that fans will notice is that the version of "From This Moment On" that they are familiar with is on the Popular release of Come On Over. Two of the Top Songs of the Rock Era* are featured on the album--"You're Still the One" and "From This Moment On"; again, the version without Bryan White is the popular version. "Man! I Feel Like a Woman" and "That Don't Impress Me Much" were other hits from the album while "You've Got a Way", "Whatever You Do! Don't!" , "Love Gets Me Every Time", "When" and "Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)" are tracks that also rate high.
