The History Behind Shania Twain’s Romantic Song “From This Moment On”
Shania Twain recently joined Andrea Bocelli in Tuscany to perform her iconic love song, “From This Moment On.”
Twain released “From This Moment On” in 1998 as the fourth single from her album Come On Over. She co-wrote the track with her then-husband, Robert John “Mutt” Lange.
Fans fell in love with the track, and it reached the #1 spot on the Hot Country Songs chart and peaked at #4 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100. It also reached #1 in Twain’s native Canada.
“From This Moment On” has since been certified Platinum by the RIAA.

The pair’s duet was backed by a full orchestra, adding further to their performance’s stunning quality.
Twain reflected on the performance in a post she shared on social media, writing:
“Thank you to [Andrea] for our beautiful onstage moment together, it was truly an honour to hear your exceptional voice singing a song I wrote originally to be performed with all that gravitas.”
