About the Song “Who I
Am”
The
original cut appeared on the sophomore 12-track album WHO I AM by Contemporary
Country-Pop artiste Jessica Andrews.
The
album, produced by Byron Gallimore, was released by DreamWorks Nashville on January
27, 2001.
The
track was featured in the TV show Lizzie
McGuire and used as the theme song of the PAX series Sue Thomas F.B.Eye.
Jessica,
who was 17 years old when Who I Am
was recorded, described the album as a more mature effort than her 1999 set Heart
Shaped World, because it focused more on the emotions that come with growing
up.
Released on November 20, 2000 and serving as the album's lead-off single, "Who I Am" became, to date, Andrews' only Number One (and only Top Ten) hit on the country music charts. Additionally, it peaked at No.28 on both the Billboard Hot 100.

In a 2001 interview, Andrews explained that she recorded the song (which was written by Brett James and Troy Verges) because she felt that its lyrics were especially fitting to her own life: "Everything is so true in that song, except that my grandmother's name is not Rosemary. It's about believing in yourself and being supported by those around you. No matter how many mistakes you make, your friends and family will be there for you."
In
the US as of June 2013, the song has sold 361,000 copies
Danielle Bradbery featured a cover of
"Who I Am" on the deluxe
