Canadian country music sensation Shania Twain will be making her return to the music world, with a new single set to hit September 23. Mercury Records is expected to release the first single, title unknown, off her new album, title unknown, which will be released sometime soon after the 23rd.

Shania has been taking a break from music, after moving with her husband, music producer Mutt Lange, to Switzerland, and having a son, Eja, who will celebrate his first birthday next week.

Shania stormed onto the country music scene in 1993 with her self-titled debut album. In a genre dominated by somber tunes sang with twangy voices, Shania started a revolution to put country music on the map with more upbeat and rockin? songs, as well as videos that caught alot of eyes. It can almost be considered true that no one has ever seen her perform in an outfit that covers her belly. She released The Woman in Me in 1995, and her last album was Come On Over in 1997, which has sold 20 million copies in 5 years. Even though the album came out in ?97, the lack of competition in the country music field meant Shania could crank out new videos at a steady pace while keeping them on the charts for an extended period of time. Shania?s 1999 single That Don?t Impress Me Much was remixed into a pop version for some mainstream play, while the song When made it?s way onto a few top 40 stations in 2000.

Shania was born in Windsor, Ont. in 1965, but raised throughout her childhood in Timmins.
