The song was inspired by criticism of Twain’s relationship with her then-husband and producer Robert John “Mutt” Lange and depicts her celebrating their marriage despite the difficulties and differences between the two. Written by Twain and Lange, it is a piano-driven country pop ballad incorporating guitar, organ, and mandolin. Mercury Records released “You’re Still the One” to U.S. contemporary hit radio stations on January 13, 1998, as the album’s first pop radio single. The song was later serviced to U.S. country radio stations as the third single from Come On Over on February 13, 1998.
Though Twain and Lange divorced after 17 years of marriage because of an affair between Lange and her best friend, the Canadian star still thinks of this ode to a long-lasting union as one of her favorite songs she has written. Twain stated in her memoir that she continues to cherish the song in memory of her mother and stepfather, who shared a very true love. It remains a staple of her setlists.
