"Frantic" is a song by Australian country music artist Jamie O'Neal. The song was written by O'Neal, Lisa Drew, and Shaye Smith, which was the same writing team as her number one single "There Is No Arizona"; it was also produced by Keith Stegall. It was released on March 11, 2002, via Mercury Nashville, as the fifth and final single from her debut studio album Shiver (2000).
It reached number 41, becoming her first single to chart outside the top-forty.
Keech Rainwater directed the video for "Frantic". It debuted to CMT on March 24, 2002.[2] It was the 11th most popular video on the channel for the week of April 7, 2002.[3]
The song was favorably reviewed. Kevin Oliver of Country Standard Time compared the song to the music of Dolly Parton during the 1970s, saying she "reveals a Dolly-esque warble."[4] Rick Cohoon of AllMusic noted it, along with "Sanctuary", "There Is No Arizona", and "When I Think About Angels", were the only songs memorable, he said verbatim.
"Frantic" debuted on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart the week of March 16, 2002, at number 49, the second highest debut of the week. It reached a peak position of number 41 for the week of May 4, 2002, becoming O'Neal's first single to miss the top-forty of the chart.
