The Complete Limelight Sessions is a collection of songs recorded by singer Shania Twain, before she signed a record deal with Mercury Nashville in 1993. It was released in North America on October 23, 2001 following the massive success of Come on Over. It is the only official collection of Twain's early work, however many bootleg albums were released around the same time. The album was promoted by remixes of "It's Alright", Twain's only song to chart on Billboards Hot Dance Club Play chart. ("The Heart is Blind" was released as a single to country radio, but didn't get enough airplay to enter Billboards Hot Country Songs chart.

The album was released in July 2000 throughout Europe on the RWP Label as Wild and Wicked and originally came with a free poster (Cat No: RWPCD 1123). The tracklisting was identical although several tracks were re-arranged in playing order. It charted on the UK Album Charts at No. 62 for two weeks.

The tracks on this album were remastered by the original producer, and released with Shania's blessing; all other versions were released without consent from Shania or the producer.
