If
the true scope of sensation could be measured in water, then Shania is
Niagara Falls.
Her pleasant,
if unremarkable, new country fare has made her a multi-million seller and
something of a national heroine to boot. The fact that she's prettier than
anyone on Friends doesn't hurt things, either.
Before
Shania Twain hooked up with Robert John "Mutt" Lange--who co-wrote, then
produced her breakthrough album Woman in Me (and in the process, fell in
love with and married her) -- she seemed headed for a career as a garden-variety
female country singer, lovely of voice and visage but unspectacular in
almost every other way. Lange, who previously was known as the producer
of such 1980s arena-rock acts as Def Leppard, Bryan Adams and the Cars,
brought out the best in Twain, both in terms of the material they co-wrote
and the pop/rock sheen he lent the album via his production. |

Come
On Over
|
Following
her smash hit The Woman In Me was no easy task for Shania and husband/producer
Mutt Lange.
With
Come On Over the sexy vixen of modern country has carved out a bigger niche
for herself that is sure to please her growing throng of fans. With a huge
helping of rock and roll added to her country trimmings, Twain proves her
success has been no fluke. As a rule, she goes out of her way to break
the traditional Nashville mold. Even her songwriting skills are at the
forefront; Shania and Mutt co-wrote all the songs on this collection. |

Twain

| Now from
north of the 49th parallel comes Shania Twain, even if her debut is firmly
in the modern Nashville mould that's rather bigger on ballads than actual
emotion. Still, there's a folksy edge to her voice which can turn appealingly
blue on Forget Me and Got A Hold On Me, while There Goes The Neighbourhood
and the delightful Dance With The One That Brought You suggest that she
could go the distance, given the right songs. |
