Queen Of Me: Royal Edition - April 28, 2023

Yes 90% sure it's "Sisters" (ft Lizzo & Janelle Monaé : ?). The song was recorded but did not fit with the concept of the album. Can't wait !

I would have liked a CD version... apparently it's only digital.

I hope it's the song she shared on TikTok when she was "in new music mode".

"Wanted Man" & "Sisters"

I can't wait!! One of these songs will definitely be "Sisters"

schnetzka · Senior Member

I also want that "Wanted Man" song she shared a clip of on TikTok a couple years ago. It reminded me of the 'Up!' era.

One of the songs is produced by David Baron so maybe we'll get On Three and Done and Dusted.
On Three is produced by Baron. These tracks are waaay different than the 12 tracks on the album so it fits with the "rogue tracks" definition. Plus, Billy Ray Cyrus sings the backing vocals on "On Three".

David Baron

One of my favorite songs recorded and produced at Sun Mountain is coming out soon. @simonefelicemusic and I produced this deep in the pandemic.

There will surely be target bonuses, but 2 more "brand new songs", so 16 in total.

15 total. Two rogue tracks and a feature.

Koko Twain · Senior Member

The link says "featuring 2 brand new song", indeed Shania write "a couple... and a feature" (3 song ?). So maybe 17.
12 QOM original songs + (2 Target bonus) + 2 or 3 Royal Edition songs.

Like Matteo said, there will be 15 songs. The original 12 songs plus 2 rogue tracks (which would be strange if they are "On Three" and "Done & Dusted" since they are already on the Target CD) and a collaboration.

David Baron in an old interview:

“My music production business has never been busier. Artists that cannot tour want to record. I am also arranging a lot. We worked with Shania Twain at my studio on an upcoming record, then I ended up arranging a Christmas Song for her remotely. Work begets work. Artists always seem to return. It’s really great. You become wonderful friends.“

Koko Twain · Senior Member

Sure there will be another (physical) edition before Christmas with this Christmas song.

It would be strange but not impossible since those two songs have never been released on streaming platforms.

Yeah I hope it's not the Target tracks.

***Jack produced "Last Day Of Summer".

Tommy · Guru

One of the two new songs might be this one...

Posted June 28, 2020

I’m feeling inspired by some of the changes we are starting to see in the world. I have been locked away in the studio with some amazingly talented people and I'm really excited about what we're creating together! That's all you get to know for now 😘

If you read through the comments on David's post, he didn't even know "On Three" was released on the Target CD. So "On Three" and "Done & Dusted" could be the 2 "rogue" songs afterall.

portacoino · Veteran Member

Maybe those 2 songs and the Harry stiles duet at Coachella

czm8888 · Veteran Member

The two songs have gotta be the target tracks, the collab being with Billy Ray Cyrus.

There are two "rogue" songs AND a feature/collaboration with Jack Savoretti. See above.

Tommy · Guru

According to a source close to Shania, the two "rogue" songs on Royal Edition are in fact "On Three" and "Done & Dusted".

So we have the 12 original songs, "On Three", "Done & Dusted" and a feature/collaboration with Jack Savoretti.

Well if that's true Shania is going to disappoint a lot of fans. These are not "brand new songs" at all. It would be up to her to limit the damage by not letting her fans hope for nothing.

portacoino · Veteran Member

Jack Savoretti co-wrote Last Day Of Summer, maybe that’s the duet.

If Royal Edition is the Target edition there’s nothing interesting on that edition because it was not only released by Target but also by fnac France, another store in Germany and some other countries.

For a physical release she could release these 3 songs and Spotify session , 16 tracks maybe 2 new songs and a tour dvd would be great.

Day by day I really think Queen of me in a growing album , I like it more and more.

Melissa · Senior Member

Not really a let down I want those songs on the Target edition to be added as it adds some country sound, As for the third song, if it is the Last Day Of Summer as a duet it might actually be a better idea. I still think the third song might be one we haven't heard. I'm also expecting one of the three to potentially be released as a single. Just because it doesn't fit doesn't mean it can't be a single. Odds are Shania releases a brand new music video and single next week. Any thoughts Tommy?

Paul · Veteran Member

I love Done and Dusted (performance/writing/everything) so I wouldn’t mind that being one of the tracks at all.

"Done & Dusted" is actually one of my very favourite songs off the new album. I can't get it out of my head.

I'd love to have a video for this song.

Koko Twain · Senior Member

When you click to presave this edition, it says "two brand new songs". "On Three" and "Done & Dusted" are not new. They will be included on this Royal Edition, but it would be a scam if they were the "brand new songs". Shania respects her fans, so I believe there will be two new unreleased songs!

Francesco86 · Veteran Member

They’re “new” on the digital platform because they were not available before. By the way, I hope we are all wrong and that we’ll get three real new songs.

portacoino · Veteran Member

I really think and hope that the new edition should be the target songs and the “featuring “ are the backing vocals of billy ray cyrus , and guys I really think it’s the right option for fans. We all can expect a new edition of the album maybe for Xmas sales , although Shania use not to do these rerelease’s but we would understand it but releasing a new edition after less than 2 months would be not fair for fans.

2 months for special stores ,target , fnac … and now you can got it everywhere and stream it , I think it’s gonna be this

Yes, the Royal Edition will have "On Three" and "Done & Dusted" plus two NEW, unreleased songs. One being the feature/collaboration with Jack Savoretti.

Melissa · Senior Member

Any update on Giddy up on the AC chart? Also curious will a single be released Friday with a music video? Timing sounds perfect with the Royal Edition album. I still still think a CD format would of been good as well as she seems to sell records better than streams. Perfect time to release the Royal Edition, maybe sales might be better or even more radio play with each city she plays. I'm hoping for a good tour experience for her hopefully she looked back on the Florida show recently and made some audio adjustments and especially those backup singers. They were to loud as was the audience. It is sometimes hard to get a good sound with so many people screaming while recording.

Flo · Veteran Member

I really really hope we'll get 2 brand new songs and not the 2 from the target/fnac/... exclusive.

This is 'Last Day Of Summer'. You can hear the exact same chords in the song.

Tommy · Guru

Royal Edition will be released in New Zealand tomorrow morning at 8:00am ET. We will get previews of the new tracks.

I love Wanted Man ❤️😍

Furthermore Bone dry and Inhale/Exhale Air (ft Breland) as new tracks

Flo · Veteran Member

Phew! 2 brand new tracks: 'Bone Dry' (3'25) and 'Wanted Man' (2'46).

Also: a new featuring with BRELAND on 'Inhale/Exhale AIR', an acoustic version of 'Queen Of Me', and the 'Giddy Up!' remix by Malibu Babie.

Do you think another version will be released later with the Jack Savoretti feature and the Target tracks? I was really hoping for the Target tracks to be released on streaming.

Paul · Veteran Member

Is Done and Dusted among the new tracks as well?

No, "Done & Dusted" isn't part of the new tracks. I LOVE "Bone Dry".

"Wanted Man" is that TikTok song posted months ago.

Melissa · Senior Member

Finally wanted man was added, Now that is the sassy Shania attitude I love to hear.

Flo · Veteran Member

I can't wait to hear the songs!
Don't want to listen just to the previews.

Marco from Brazil · Veteran Member

Happy it's new new songs, but I wish the other exclusive ones were added to this Royal edition! Would me much easier to listen in the car.

I like "Wanted Man" better than "Bone Dry" "Wanted Man" has great instrument solos.

I wonder if Inhale/Exhale ft. Breland will get a music video and will be released as a single? I'm sure it will be performed live because he's opening for Shania at several shows for the tour.

schnetzka · Senior Member

Wonder why she didn't include the Target tracks with the new ones.

Flo · Veteran Member

At least now we have an album with a decent running time.
