Born on August 28, 1965 in Canada, Eilleen Regina Twain always loved music. By the age of 10, she started writing her owns songs. Her mother Sharon, although with little income, always encouraged her daughter to go to music lessons, performances and gigs. By the young age of 18, Eilleen set out to make a career of her music. Although she found a few gigs here and there, she had to work side jobs to make ends meet. At one point, Twain found herself working in a McDonalds.
Unfortunately, her mom and adoptive died in a car crash and she was left to fend for herself and three younger siblings. She eventually landed a job in a Las Vegas-style show in Ontario. During her time at the show, she continued to write her own songs. One of her demos made its way down to Nashville and Polygram Records offered a record deal.
With a new record label came a makeover. Although her name was Eilleen Twain, she wanted to remember her adoptive father and keep as part of her stage name. She then became Shania Twain. Shania means "I'm on my way" in Ojibwe, which was the Canadian tribe of her adoptive father. So began her drive with Polygram Records to make it big. Although she had to sing and perform sings written for her at that time, she caught the eye of Robert John Lange, the producer for groups like ACDC, the Cars and Def Leppard.
With Lange, she helped co-write 10 out of the 12 songs on her next album. In 1995, Shania released "The Woman In Me" and reached number one on country charts with one of the singles, "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under." "Any Man of Mine" peaked at number one in both country charts and Top 40 pop hits. Following that year, Shania received four Grammy nominations and won Best Country Album. In 1997, "Come On Over" released as a co-production with Lange and she again reached success. Popular and iconic songs like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "That Don't Impress Me Much" infused country and pop on the album and soared to the top of the charts.
