"Honey, I'm Home" was the sixth overall single released from Shania Twain's 1997 album Come on Over. It was fourth to North American country radio. The song was written by Mutt Lange and Shania Twain. The song was originally released in the summer of 1998 following the mass success of "You're Still the One". The song went on to become Shania's seventh and to date, final number one single on the Billboard Country singles chart. "Honey, I'm Home" was included in both the Come on Over and Up! tours, as well as her Miami, Dallas and Chicago specials. A memorable performance of the song was when Shania performed it at the 1998 Country Music Awards. No commercial single was made available for this release.

[edit] Music video
The music video for "Honey, I'm Home" was taken from Twain's Louisville, Kentucky concert on July 8, 1998, it was released August 19, 1998. The video was directed by Larry Jordan. This was the first of three live videos taken from Come on Over. Unlike the other two, "Come on Over" and "Rock This Country!", "Honey, I'm Home" documents the entire show, while the other two are just of the performance of the respective song. Attendees of the Louisville concert said "Honey, I'm Home" was performed four times to get the video right. The video is available on Twain's DVD The Platinum Collection.
