Shania Twain is back with her brand new single Waking Up Dreaming. 

The country-pop superstar took to social media to announce the track as she enters the “next chapter” of her career. 

“Every time I get to announce something like this I get such a rush of adrenaline and nerves – it never gets old,” she penned.

“I am super excited to share with you that my new song ‘Waking Up Dreaming’ is coming out this Friday!! 

“I’ve spent the last couple years working away on new music… on my documentary… on the Vegas residency and it’s been such a creatively fulfilling time for me, I can’t wait for this next chapter and Waking Up Dreaming is just the start.⁠”

The Honey I’m Home star recently teased new material in her Netflix documentary film ‘Not Just A Girl’, which saw her in the studio in London finishing work on tracks for the project. 

“I am here in London finishing my album – and getting with some great UK talent and creatives,” she teases, before offering a look into studio sessions with producer Mark Ralph.

In addition to her soundtrack release Not Just A Girl, Shania has worked with the songwriter and producer on further tracks for the project, two of which she previewed in the film. 

‘I’m not a girl / I’m not a boy / I’m not a baby / I’m not a toy / I’m a queen’, she sings on one number, on which she declares herself the ‘queen of me’. 

“It’s uplifting. It’s still a lot of female point of view,” she adds of the new material. “I’m more swinging back into the space of, I don’t even want to say ‘female empowerment’, but self-empowerment. 

“I mean, I’m a woman but I’m just feeling very good in my own skin and less apologetic than ever. I’m good, you know. Unless something else knocks me down along the way, but like I always do I think I’ll just get back up again.”

A release date for Shania’s sixth studio album has yet to be confirmed. ‘Not Just A Girl’ is streaming on Netflix now.
