"Life Goes On" is the first single from the album Twisted Angel, recorded and released by country singer LeAnn Rimes. The song did not make it into the Hot 100 in the US, but it did make number 9 on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart, and was a bigger hit outside America. It reached the top 10 in Australia, the Netherlands and Sweden, and broke the top 5 in New Zealand, peaking at number 4. It peaked within the top 20 in the United Kingdom and Norway. The video for the song was shot in New Orleans and received criticism because of Rimes' sexual clothing and moves. Fans were also against the song because it had a huge pop sound instead of the country music Rimes used to record. The song is about moving on and letting go of the past.
This song peaked at number 12 on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. A country remix of the song was released to country radio and peaked at number 60 on Billboard's Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.
