Tear Me Apart is a studio album by American country music artist Tanya Tucker, released in 1979. Produced by Mike Chapman, who along with longtime songwriting partner Nicky Chinn, wrote two of its songs, it continues the more rock-based sound begun on the preceding TNT. The album rose to the No. 33 position on the Billboard Country Albums chart, although there were no charting singles in the United States for the first time in Tucker's career.
The Globe and Mail noted that "occasionally the album drifts a little, as Tanya seems unsure as to whether she wants to emulate Janis Joplin, Tammy Wynette or Yvonne Elliman as far as style goes."[1]
