"You're Still the One" is a song recorded by Canadian singer Shania Twain for her third studio album Come On Over (1997). The song was inspired by criticism of Twain's relationship with her then-husband and producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange and depicts her celebrating their marriage despite the difficulties and differences between the two. Written by Twain and Lange, it is a piano-driven country pop ballad incorporating guitar, organ, and mandolin. Mercury Records released "You're Still the One" to U.S. contemporary hit radio stations on January 13, 1998, as the album's first pop radio single. The song was later serviced to U.S. country radio stations as the third single from Come On Over on February 13, 1998.

"You're Still the One" received positive reviews from music critics, who praised its romantic lyrics and crossover appeal and deemed it one of Twain's best songs. At the 41st Annual Grammy Awards in 1999, "You're Still the One" garnered four nominations, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year, and won Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance. It was a crossover success, peaking at number two on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and being certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It also reached number-one in Australia and peaked at number 10 in the U.K.

The music video for "You're Still the One", directed by David Hogan, shows Twain singing on a beach and male model John Devoe in a beach house. It was nominated for Best Female Video at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards, making Twain the first female country artist nominated for an MTV Video Music Award. Twain has performed "You're Still the One" at television shows and included it on the set lists of various concert tours and residency shows. The song was covered by several artists, including Paula Fernandes who released a duet with Twain in 2014.

Upon signing with U.S. label Mercury Nashville Records in 1991, Canadian singer Shania Twain released her eponymous debut studio album in April 1993. Despite the album being a commercial failure and selling only 100,000 units, Twain's singing voice and the music video for "What Made You Say That" caught the interest of Zambian record producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange. The two started collaborating on songwriting via phone calls and met for the first time at the Fan Fair festival, in June 1993. Soon after, they established a romantic relationship and wedded in December 1993. However, their relationship was criticized and viewed with skepticism by industry observers, who noted their different cultural backgrounds and the 17-year age gap between the two. Lange's artistic involvement in Twain's second studio album, The Woman in Me (1995), also sparked speculation that he was "a Svengali-like producer who demands total control in the studio and treats Twain as a puppet".

Twain herself noticed that people did not believe in their relationship, arguing that the differences between the two would make it unlikely to succeed; "They say, well, he married a young, good-looking girl, and she married a successful producer. So people thought it was based on that and certainly couldn't last". Twain wrote the autobiographical "You're Still the One" in response to the criticism and as a tribute to her successful marriage with Lange. She began working on the song by playing guitar and being in an introspective "folky singer/songwriter" state of mind. As she was composing lyrics and singing the chorus melody repeatedly, Lange came up with the counter-melody "You're still the one". Twain recalls that "all of a sudden we had a hit chorus" and that the song was completed shortly after. "You're Still the One", along with the rest of Come On Over (1997), was recorded at Masterfonics Tracking Room in Nashville, Tennessee, and mixed by Mike Shipley. Lange produced the track and sang background vocals.

"You're Still the One" runs for three minutes and 34 seconds. It is a "gentle" country pop ballad. The instrumental includes piano, guitar, organ, mandolin, and a pedal steel solo played by Bruce Bouton on the bridge. The Boston Globe's Steve Morse found the use of an organ reminiscent of Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" (1967). On the international version of Come On Over, "You're Still the One" features a pop-oriented production and is one second shorter. The pop elements have been accentuated by removing the slide guitars and softening the fiddle and pedal steel parts. According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, the song is composed in the key of E♭ major and set in the time signature of common time with a slow tempo of 67 beats per minute. It has a chord progression of E♭–E♭/G–A♭–B♭ and Twain's vocal range spans from the low note of G₃ to the high note of B♭₄.

The song begins with a spoken introduction over a drumbeat, "When I first saw you, I saw love / And the first time you touched me, I felt love". Sociology professor Michael Hughes noted that although the introduction is spoken with "a voice characteristic of [Twain's] Ontario, Canada roots", the rest of the song is sung "with the strong suggestion of a standard, rural Southern accent characteristic of country music performances". Twain sings with "breathy" and "confident" vocals which author Jim Brown considered to be "the sole country element in sight". Twain described "You're Still the One" as "[her] own personal victory song". Lyrically, the song is about "the kind of triumph you feel, when you have a successful relationship and you win against the odds". Taylor Weatherby of Billboard said the lyrics reinforce the message that love can triumph through hard times. The song finds Twain celebrating the endurance of her marriage to Lange: "I'm so glad we made it / Look how far we've come, my baby".

In an attempt to crossover to the pop market, Mercury Records selected "You're Still the One" as the third single from Come On Over and Twain's first single to be sent to pop stations. It impacted U.S. contemporary hit radio on January 13, 1998, and was serviced to U.S. adult contemporary and hot adult contemporary radio stations on January 23, 1998. The song was later serviced to U.S. country stations on February 13, 1998. Luke Lewis, president of Mercury, discussed during an interview with Radio & Records magazine the risks of releasing a song to pop stations before country stations:

"We don't want to wreck a career just because we want to maximize a record. Shania's concerned about it, too. But at some point it becomes unfair to an artist to say, 'We're not going to get as much exposure as possible, because we might piss off some people at Country.' [sic]"

The label distributed in the U.S. CDs, cassettes, and 7-inch vinyls including a radio edit of "You're Still the One" and a remix version of "Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)". Soul Solution produced dance mixes of "You're Still the One" that appeared on a maxi-CD single distributed in the U.S. and received airplay on pop and country stations. In continental Europe, "You're Still the One" was released on February 2, 1998, as the album's first single. In the U.K., Mercury released CDs and cassettes to retail on February 16, 1998. The cassette includes a radio edit of "You're Still the One" and a remix version of "(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!" remixed by Lange. The CD features an additional album version of "You're Still the One" and the "Mutt Lange Mix" of "You Win My Love". A CD single with the same track listing was also released in Japan on April 8, 1998.

David Browne of Entertainment Weekly highlighted the song's spoken introduction, calling it "the most subtle work Twain's ever done" and comparing it to Janet Jackson's work. Writing for the Los Angeles Times, Geoff Boucher deemed "You're Still the One" Twain's signature song and wrote that its success "introduced her to a vast, general fan base". British magazine Music Week gave it five out of five, stating, "This strongly-tipped and heavily-backed country-pop singer has the quality to write all her own hits and delivers an instant radio smash. Sales will surely follow." Bobbie Jean Sawyer of Wide Open Country similarly regarded the song as "a career-defining moment for Twain".

Laura McClellan from Taste Of Country labeled it "an instant crossover hit" which solidified "[Twain's] status as a pop culture icon". CMT's Brian Rogala lauded the song's "catchy lyrics" and "classic theme of holding onto love despite the odds", calling it "one of the most memorable country love ballads of the '90s". George Varga of Copley News selected "You're Still the One" as an example of "the impeccably crafted blend of country twang, rock 'n' roll punch and sleek, radio-friendly pop that has made [Twain] one of the ultimate crossover artists of all time". Country Universe's Ben Foster praised Twain's vocal performance and her songwriting "that allows any couple to hear the song as their own story set to music".

Rolling Stone ranked the song number one on their list of Twain's greatest songs, classifying it as the "ultimate Y2K prom theme". On Consequence's list of the best songs of 1997, "You're Still the One" was placed 10th. Michael Roffman wrote that the track stood the test of time and "is still the country song everyone wants to hear", adding that Twain "didn't appeal strictly to the genre, but to the hooks and the melodies". Billboard placed "You're Still the One" at number 40 on their list of 1998's best songs. Weatherby praised the track for proving that Twain "wasn't just a country star — she was an all-around superstar". In 2005, "You're Still the One" was placed at number 69 on Blender's "The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born".

At the 1998 Billboard Music Awards, "You're Still the One" won Top Country Song and was nominated for Top Hot 100 Song. It won Single of the Year at the 1998 Canadian Country Music Association Awards and received a nomination for Single Record of the Year at the 34th Academy of Country Music Awards. At the 41st Annual Grammy Awards in 1999, "You're Still the One" was nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It won Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance.

The song peaked at number two on the issue dated May 2, 1998, behind Next's "Too Close" (1998). Earning sales of 88,000 units and 29 million radio audience impressions, it tied LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live" (1997) as the highest-peaking single by a country artist in the 1990s. After fluctuating down the chart, "You're Still the One" returned to number two on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 issued for June 20, 1998, with 105,000 copies sold. It spent eight consecutive weeks at number two, blocked from the top by "The Boy Is Mine" (1998) by Brandy and Monica. "You're Still the One" remained on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for a total of 42 weeks and is Twain's highest-peaking single to date.

On Billboard's airplay charts, "You're Still the One" became Twain's sixth number-one on the U.S. Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart and spent eight weeks atop the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart. The song reached number three on the U.S. Mainstream Top 40 chart and was the highest-charting country crossover to pop radio in the U.S until Taylor Swift's chart-topping "Love Story" (2008). "You're Still the One" became Twain's first top-10 entry on the U.S. Adult Top 40 chart, peaking at number six.

The accompanying music videos for "You're Still the One" was directed by David Hogan. Twain explained to Hogan her initial vision of light as the main effect, and Hogan subsequently sent her photography books to choose lighting imagery and effects. Twain picked a dappled "dramatic" lighting, which Hogan "duplicated [...] perfectly". The music video for "You're Still the One" was shot in black-and-white in Malibu, California. Twain said the majority of the video was supposed to be shot on the beach. However, due to unfavorable weather conditions, several scenes were filmed in a beach house. The video features interspersed scenes of Twain on a beach and male model John Devoe in a beach house. Close-up shots of Twain show her singing on a beach at night, under the full moon. She is wearing a silk robe and has wet hair. Devoe is seen lounging in a bathtub and watching Twain on TV. Towards the end of the video, after he gets out of the tub, he takes off his towel and joins Twain in bed.

Brown complimented the "spectacular" contrast between outdoor and indoor scenes. He found it reminiscent of black-and-white romance films of the 1940s. Writing for NPR, Ann Powers described the music video as a "mix of beachy sensuality and technologically assisted intimacy" which she compared to Janet Jackson's "Love Will Never Do (Without You)" (1990) and Jennifer Lopez's "If You Had My Love" (1999). Scenes from the music video were deemed sexual and sparked controversy among conservative country music critics. Twain responded to these remarks as "totally ridiculous". She commented, "There is nothing revealing about it. I'm wrapped up to the gills. The video is sensual and has a surreal feel about it, but there is nothing sexual about it. When you start kissing and touching, it's sexual. But sensual? That's fine, in my opinion — it's a very romantic song". "You're Still the One" was the first music video by a country artist to be added to the U.S. MTV playlist. It won Best Country Clip at the 1998 Billboard Music Video Awards and was nominated for Best Female Video at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards. This made Twain the first female country artist to be nominated for an MTV Video Music Award.

Twain sang "You're Still the One" on her 2012–2014 Las Vegas residency show, Shania: Still the One. She appeared on stage riding a white horse. Twain performed the song wearing a white cape and dress, standing barefoot on stage, and fondling the horse. During the performance, she circled the stage with the horse as confetti shaped like snowflakes fell from the sky. Billboard's Rae Votta wrote that the performance "[left] the crowd in awe both of the song and of the horse that somehow manages to be perfectly trained and perfectly natural all at once". Mike Weatherford of the Las Vegas Review-Journal compared the performance to those of Stevie Nicks, while Jon Caramanica of The New York Times said Twain's voice sounded "milky and resonant". On the Rock This Country Tour (2015), Twain performed an acoustic version of "You're Still the One", sitting on a stool and playing guitar.

In 1999, Prince recorded a cover of the song under the title "Ur'e Still the One" in duet with Marva King and uploaded it to his website Love4OneAnother.com. In retrospect, Twain praised Prince's cover in Steve Baltin's 2022 book Anthems We Love, saying: "It was very Prince-esque. [...] And that version made the most impact on me. I realized that, wow, really this song could live anywhere genrewise and style-wise". "You're Still the One" was featured on The Sopranos episode "Bust Out".
