"Party for Two"
Song

"Party for Two" was the first single from Shania Twain's 2004 Greatest Hits CD. The song was written by Mutt Lange and Twain.

Two versions of "Party for Two" were recorded: a pop mix with Mark McGrath and a country version with Billy Currington. The song was released to country, AC, pop, European, and other world markets. The original release date was September 7 2004. It proved to be quite a success for Shania, as it was her third highest debut on the Billboard country charts, and her second biggest single in Europe of all time, after "Ka-Ching!". As well in Europe, DJs jumped all over the song and remixed it for club play, also making the song one of her most remixed. Two videos were shot in London, one with each of the partners in the song. They debuted on September 27 2004. Commercial singles were released in Germany on October 25, in Canada on November 2, and in the U.K. on November 22. In 2005, "Party for Two" was certified as a gold single for 100,000 digital downloads, making it Twain's first single to be downloaded this many times.
