Complete is the third studio album by American country music artist Lila McCann, released on June 26, 2001 via Warner Bros. Nashville as her sole album with the label following her departure from Asylum Records. The album was released two years following her previous record Something in the Air (1999) in which during that time she graduated high school and began working with new producer David Malloy. Complete is also McCann's final studio album with a major record label and is her only album to not contain any writing credits from her.

Upon release, Complete received mixed reviews, with the content of the album either being received positively or negatively. Two singles were released from the album, namely "Come a Little Closer" and "Because of You". The former failed to reach the top-40 of the US country airplay chart while the latter completely failed to enter the chart at all. The album would peak at number 18 on the US Top Country Albums chart. Following the failures of the two singles, McCann would be dropped by Warner Bros. Nashville.

Two songs on this album would be recorded by other artists. The second single "Because of You" would go on to be recorded by Canadian artist Celine Dion, from which it would be included on limited edition versions of her 2002 studio album A New Day Has Come. The album cut "Mighty Mighty Love" would later be recorded by country artist Ty Herndon for his 2007 studio album Right About Now, in which it would be released as a single.
