Shania Twain Releases New Single, “Giddy Up!”

The pop-country icon’s latest single continues preparation for forthcoming album, tour

Three months since releasing “Waking Up Dreaming” — her first new single in five years and her first with new label partner Republic Nashville — Shania Twain has followed up with “Giddy Up,” the second track from “Queen of Me,” her sixth studio album, due for release on Feb. 3.

A video aids the funky, pop-ready country number (and “Queen of Me “‘s first track) highlighting blue-collar workers (a grocery stocking clerk, mechanic and waitress) enjoying some 90s-style country line dancing while picking up the energy with some “up in their giddy up.”

Kickstarting the record, “Giddy Up!” rides out of the gate with a fiery, flirty, and fun chorus tailor made for singing and dancing along. As always, it showcases her show-stopping range and undeniable charisma.

Shania says, the saying “Let’s Go Girls!” is such a wonderfully uplifting sentiment now, but it’s just something I said during the recording in the studio and I guess that’s the same for Giddy Up! These lines come to me when I’m thinking about how to put a little “pep in my step”. I want people to feel good when they hear the new album. I want to set a celebratory tone and “Giddy up!” Is a way to call to the audience and say “let’s get ready for some fun!”

Via a press release, Twain noted the similarity in spirit between saying “Let’s Go Girls” to kick off her quarter-century-old hit “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” and the hook of “Giddy Up.”

“These lines come to me when I’m thinking about how to put a little ‘pep in my step.’ I want to set a celebratory tone and ‘giddy up’ is a way to call to the audience and say, ‘let’s get ready for some fun!'”

Queen of Me consists of 12 new tracks. From the energetic opener “Giddy Up!” through the empowered title track “Queen of Me” and passionate finale “The Hardest Stone,” produced by and featuring Tyler Joseph/Twenty One Pilots, the LP represents a deep and dynamic creative statement from this iconic voice. She set the stage for everything with the single “Waking Up Dreaming” which Rolling Stone called “a shot of caffeinated bliss” and The Today Show called “an absolute bop.”
