“All of these lines across my face / Tell you the story of who I am,” sings LeAnn on her latest single The Story (originally by ). Too right. Wrinkles aren’t a sign of old age, they’re a sign of hard-won experience. Not that Rimes actually has many wrinkles; despite having released 16 albums, she’s still only 34. That’s some work rate.

“I don't like to have the rain on my shoe,” declares LeAnn at the beginning of her 2002 single But I Do Love You. And who does? Especially if they’re suede. But it’s amazing how quickly the presence of a lover can make you forget about your soggy loafers. By the chorus, she’s singing “I love to kiss you in the rain”, the possibility of having to stuff pieces of newspaper in the end of her shoes and prop them up against a radiator when she gets home completely forgotten.

Want to know if that summer romance might be more than just a fling? Rimes’s 1998 song Insensitive - originally by Canadian singer - offers some tips on how to tell: “The vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes / By the chill in your embrace / The expression on your face that told me / Maybe you might have some advice to give / On how to be insensitive.” Basically, if they look a bit shifty and try to dash off without giving you a proper hug, they’re just not that into you. Sorry.

“Every now and then / Every girl needs a good friend and a glass of wine.” Hard to disagree with this sage advice from LeAnn’s 2007 song Good Friend and a Glass of Wine. She goes on to refer to a glass of rioja with your best friend as the “kind of therapy money can't buy”, which doesn’t say much for all those private counsellors charging £40 an hour.

Some basic safety advice here from Ms Rimes, performing the song Gasoline and Matches. “I feel a spark and the fire catches,” she sings, illustrating just how flammable petrol can be. Stay safe.

The wonder of love is an abiding theme in LeAnn’s rhymes, but in 2004 she dedicated a whole song to exploring this concept. Nothin’ ‘bout Love Makes Sense advises us not to analyse love too deeply lest the magic dissolve. Rimes underlines this lesson by listing a whole load of other things that don’t make sense - clouds, Las Vegas, the leaning tower of Pisa, flea circuses (?!!) - but that we just have to accept because you’ll go mad trying to process the wacky science behind them.

The title of LeAnn’s theme song from Coyote Ugly says it all. Moonlight is a celestial phenomenon, a pale reflection of the sun’s rays. Trying to fight it would be like trying to fight a ghost. And what’s it done to you anyway? Put your fists down and go home.

In case you’re ever in danger of taking your partner for granted, here’s LeAnn to remind you that you’re one of the fortunate ones. “It's sad to think that some won't find it / And others won't recognise it even when it comes,” she sings on Some People. “We're all at the mercy of the will of love / Some people aren't lucky like us.” A powerful song about love and forgiveness, it might be a good idea to have this one loaded up on the car stereo next time you neglect to renew the breakdown cover.
