The song was written and produced by Kristian Lundin and Andreas Carlsson, who already worked with Céline Dion in 1999 on "That's the Way It Is."[1] "I'm Alive" was also featured in the Stuart Little 2 movie.

The music video was directed by Dave Meyers between May 24-25, 2002 and premiered in June 2002. There were two versions made: with or without the Stuart Little 2 movie scenes.

"I'm Alive" became a worldwide hit, hitting top 10 in many countries, including number 3 on the United World Chart. It was certified platinum in Belgium (50,000) and gold in France (250,000).

The track was remixed by Joe Bermudez, Johnny Rocks and Ric Wake. The latter used a sample of Blondie's 1979 hit "Heart of Glass."

Dion performed "I'm Alive" five nights a week during her show A New Day... at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. It was released on the A New Day... Live in Las Vegas CD in 2004 and Live in Las Vegas - A New Day... DVD in 2007.

The song became also a part of the Taking Chances Tour set list and was performed by Dion in a new remix version.
