Now I Can Dance is an autobiography by Australian singer-songwriter Tina Arena. Arena says, "I don't know what I would do if I couldn't write and sing. It makes me who I am, regardless of where I happen to be or what language I'm speaking. It has done since I wrote my first song and sang it to myself in the shower. It's as natural for me as breathing."[1]
The title of her memoir, Now I Can Dance is taken from the third single from Arena's third studio album In Deep (1997). The track was written by Arena while living in L.A. and is a love letter from her to her family, as she explained in her autobiography. The song was successful in her native Australia, reaching #13 on the ARIA Singles Chart.
In 2017, Arena updated her autobiography with the release of a new edition of Now I Can Dance (book), with new content covering her relocation from France back to Australia, being inducted into the 2015 ARIA Hall of Fame, the release of new music, and new musical ventures.[2] Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers (Australia) Pty Ltd 2nd Edition (May 22, 2017).[3]
