"No One Needs to Know" is a song co-written and recorded by Canadian country music artist Shania Twain. It was released on May 15, 1996 as the sixth single from her second studio album The Woman in Me. The song was written by Twain and then husband and producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange. Twain composed the song while working and performing at the Deerhurst Resort in Ontario, Canada. The song was featured in the 1996 film Twister and was also included in the film's soundtrack. It was also the only single from The Woman in Me to not be commercially released; it was included as a b-side in the Australian release of "(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!".
"No One Needs to Know" marked Twain's third consecutive single to top both the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks and Canadian RPM Country Tracks, spending one and two weeks atop the charts; overall, it was her fourth US number one and sixth Canadian number one. Twain later included the song on her 2004 Greatest Hits compilation. She has performed the song on four of her tours and both of her Vegas residencies.
Billboard reviewed the single favorably, calling it "an infectious concoction that boasts a lighter, fresher sound than her previous outings". They also stated that the "harmonica-accented production has a cool kind of retro feel" which "should help her sell a few more records". [1]
The music video for "No One Needs to Know" was filmed in Spring Hill, Tennessee, and directed by Steven Goldmann. It was filmed on April 3, 1996, and released on May 15, 1996, on CMT. The video consists of Twain and a backing band playing at a rather large farm house, while a tornado (filmed by Charles Robertson) arrives, coinciding with the theme of the Twister movie. One version of the video contains scenes from the movie, while another, the 'Performance Only' version is just of Twain and the band. The 'Performance Only' version of the video is available on Twain's DVD The Platinum Collection . Both videos start with a brief "rehearsal", during which Twain gives instructions to the band, they play a few bars and Twain mixes up the lyrics.
Personnel are lifted from The Woman in Me liner notes. [2]
