After another haitus, Oslin released her fifth studio album titled, "Live Close By, Visit Often," in 2001. She co-produced the album with The Mavericks' lead vocalist Raul Malo. The album included a range of musical styles, such as country, electronic dance and Latin. "Live Close By, Visit Often" received mixed reviews. Allmusic's Maria Konicki Dinoia commented that the project was "too eclectic to call country too divergent to call pop." Alanna Nash found the album to be "schizophrenic" in its musical diversity, but did praise Oslin's vocal performance throughout. "Live Close By, Visit Often" spent 11 weeks on the "Billboard" country albums list and peaked at number 35, becoming her final charting album. Its title track was released as the first single and reached a minor chart position on the country songs list. Its second single, a cover of Rosemary Clooney's "Come on-a My House" would make the "Billboard" dance music chart.
