<P> "Love Gets Me Every Time" was written by Twain and her then husband Robert John "Mutt" Lange, and produced solely by Lange . Twain developed the song at first and brought it to Lange under the title "' Gol Darn Gone and Done It", which derived from a country expression Twain had heard of . The name made Lange burst in laughter when he first heard it, and the couple completed the song together . However, executives at Mercury Records Nashville were concerned that radio DJs would mispronounce the title's tongue twisting words when announcing the single . Twain concurred, and renamed it "Love Gets Me Every Time" instead . The track was chosen as the lead single for Come On Over after a few weeks of careful deliberation . Twain told CMT Totally in 1997, "We hard such a hard time choosing this first single . I don't know . We just ended up there . We went around in circles for weeks until we finally decided on that single . It really just felt right, and I really can't describe it any better than that . I think it's just one of those things where we had the chance to live with the options for a few weeks and everyone just ended up there . So, it just felt right . I guess we went with our gut on that one ." A CD single, 7" vinyl single and a cassette single were released simultaneously on September 23, 1997 in the US and Canada, featuring three versions of "Love Gets Me Every Time".

Furthermore, she stated, "The lyric is lightweight, the performance is pretty much a matter of individual taste, and, as usual, the production is the real star here ." Matt Bjorke of About.com listed the song amongst the pros of Come On Over . While reviewing Greatest Hits, Nick Reynolds of BBC called the track "infectiously cheerful", and spoke of it when explaining how Twain and Lange "raise (d) their game" on Come On Over .
