Man! I Feel Like a Woman!

"Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" is the eighth single off of Canadian country singer Shania Twain's third studio album Come On Over. The song was released in March 1999.

The song was able to make it to #4 on the Hot Country Songs, #12 on the Adult Top 40, #16 on the Adult Contemporary, #19 on the Pop Airplay, #20 on the Top 40 Tracks, and #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It was also certified 3× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The song won Best Female Country Vocal Performance at the 42nd Grammy Awards.

The song is about female empowerment. About the song, Twain said that it was a celebration of being a woman. In an interview with The Advocate, Twain also said that "It's not only girl power, it's gay power. I think that song really stands for both."

A music video for the song was released. In the video, Twain sings and strips clothes off to reveal other clothes she is wearing. In the background, men with blank expressions play instruments. It is a gender swapped, role reversal of the music videos for Robert Palmer's songs "Addicted to Love" and "Simply Irresistible".
