The Top 10 Canadian music albums

By Katie Scott and Chris Jancelewicz | Global News | May 1, 2018

There’s so much talent in Canada, whether it’s comedy, acting or … any art form, really.

Over the past few decades, Canada has really emerged as a music powerhouse; it’s amazing how often a Canadian musician is topping the charts. Interestingly, eight of the top 10 best selling Canadian music albums of all time are by women (and four of those by the same woman!).

In honour of next week’s Canadian Music Week, we’ve compiled the Top 10 Canadian music albums. Take a gander — and perhaps a listen — below.

(Ed. Note: Nielsen Music Canada, in collaboration with Billboard, compiled a list of the top-selling Canadian albums from 1996-2016. The top overall Canadian albums list combines physical and digital album sales.)

1. Shania Twain – Come On Over

Shania Twain’s Come On Over was released on Nov. 4, 1997, and it is the best-selling studio album by a female artist and the best-selling album of the 1990s. It’s also the best-selling country music album of all time and the best selling album by a Canadian. Twain’s album was listed as no. 21 in the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame’s Definitive 200. Her third studio album includes hits like Man! I Feel Like a Woman!, You’re Still The One and Don’t Be Stupid. It also includes her massive 1998 hit That Don’t Impress Me Much, which Twain recently revealed that Brad Pitt’s nude photos inspired the song. — KS

3. Shania Twain - Up!

On the heels of 1997’s Come on Over, Twain’s Up! was released in 2002 to eager audiences. At this point, the country-music singer was a worldwide sensation, and this album made her the only female artist to ever have three back-to-back diamond albums. It sold a staggering 874,000 copies in its first week of release. — CJ
