[edit] Critical reception
Billboard reviewed the single favorably, calling it "an infectious concoction that boasts a lighter, fresher sound than her previous outings."[1]
[edit] Music video
The music video for "No One Needs to Know" was shot in Spring Hill, Tennessee and directed by Steven Goldmann. It was filmed on April 3, 1996 and released May 15, 1996. The video is of Twain and a band playing at big farm house, while a tornado rolls in, sticking with the theme from the movie Twister. One version of the video contains scenes from the movie, while another, the 'Performance Only' version is just of Twain and the band. The 'Performance Only' version of the video is available on Twain's DVD The Platinum Collection. Both videos start with a brief "rehearsal", during which Twain gives instructions to the band, they play a few bars and Twain mixes up the lyrics. This part sounds as though broadcasted on AM radio.
[edit] Chart performance

The single became Twain's fourth number-one single (third consecutive), fourth top ten single, and sixth consecutive top twenty single. "No One Needs to Know" became Twain's fastest climbing single to reach number one when it did so in ten weeks, a record held by both "Any Man of Mine" and "You Win My Love" when they made number-one in eleven weeks.
