- Written by Robert John "Mutt" Lange
and Shania Twain
- As performed by Shania Twain
(born Eilleen
Regina Edwards on 8/28/65 in Windsor Ontario Canada) and Bryan White
- Her parents divorced when she was only
two, and when her mother remarried her stepfather (Jerry Twain) adopted
her and gave her his name
- Her stepfather and mother were killed in an
automobile accident in 1987, and Eilleen took over as the head of the
household, performing at a local resort hotel to earn a living
- She caught the attention of record company executives
and changed her name to Shania, drawing on her stepfather's Ojibwa
heritage. The name means "On my way"
- From This Moment On climbed to #6 on the Billboard
Country Singles chart in 1998
- Ironically, it was partly due to the incredible
success of her song "You're Still The One", perched at the top of the
country chart, that prevented From This Moment On from climbing any
higher
- The song also reached # 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, the 5th of seven songs to crack the Top
40
- On the Adult Contemporary chart the
song soared to #1 despite the strong pressure from You're Still The One
- It was the fourth song to be released as a single
from the 1997 blockbuster album "Come On Over", which has been certified
as 20x Platinum, (any more they'll have to be talking Plutonium or some
other equally rare metal)
- The album remains the biggest selling album by a
female of all time, and the largest selling country album of all time
- Ironically, the album never hit the top of the
Billboard albums chart, reaching #2 in 1999
- In total no less than 12 songs of the 16 on the album
were released as singles
- The song is incredibly popular as a
first dance song at weddings

Song Lyrics - From This Moment On
From this moment, life has begun
From this moment, you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong, from this moment on
From this moment, I have been blessed
I live only, for your happiness,
And for your love, I'd give my last breath
From this moment on
I give my hand to you with all my heart,
Can't wait to live my life with you, can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart,
My dreams, came true, because, of you
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing, I wouldn't give
From this, moment, on
You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams, came true, because, of you.
From, this, moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing, I wouldn't give
From this, moment
I will love you, (I will love you) as long as I live
From this moment on
