Shania has a very tasteful voice and Mutt Lange is one over the top producer. If you like variety in your music you gotta pick this up. She pulls of a Bonnie Raitt style tune with "If you wanna touch her ask" and you can hear a Blondie influence on "When". She pulls out some great southern rock meets bryan adams on "Whatever you do! don't!".

The vocal melodies on this album are the best i've heard in a long time. Shania can take a pop tune "From this moment" and pull off a Mariah with ease and quite a bit more style.

If you buy one CD this year, make it this one! there isn't a bad song on this album.

This is both a good & different album than any other Country based music I've heard. Probably because it really isn't Country? After several listenings, I came to the conclusion that this was 70% Pop, 20% Country, & 10% Disco. I'll leave that debate to those more familiar with those genre's. This was a very lively, even optimistic group of songs. Shania's voice was better with the faster songs.

These are the ones I thought were done the best. "When," the only cynical tune on a cheerful album. It is a "yea right," tune that felt like it did not belong. Perhaps, thats why it stuck out? "From This Moment," certainly a smooth love ballad if there ever was one. Shania sang this from the heart, & it came through exquisitely. "Man I Feel Like A Woman," a feel good girl song with drums, electric guitar, & some mild fiddles. "Love Gets Me Everytime," more of a traditional love song with single girl meeting a guy & falling in love, with a fast tempo. "Come On Over," strong Accordion with one friend comforting another. "Your Still The One," probably her biggest hit? A smoothly done slow tempo tune about a couple who proved the naysayers wrong by staying together.


Not very country, but good provocative pop   June 28, 2002

I like country and I like the real country, Dolly, Loretta, Tammy, etc. But I like good adult contemporary music too. This is just to let you know where I'm coming from. Country purists won't care for this. But those who don't mind crossover which leans much more to a rather seductive pop sound than traditional country will go for it.

For my money, "From This Moment On" is one of the most beautiful love songs ever. It has a delicacy, and yet a powerful emotional build-up. Then there's the upbeat "Man,I Feel Like a Woman!" Nothing subtle here! "You're Still The One" has the beat, the energy, but not the annoying loudness that a certain other pop/country singer overdoes. "That Don't Impress Me Much" is a bit more country than some of these that have received a lot of radio play. And "Rock This Country" speaks for itself.

If you like Shania, you should really like this CD. If you don't, well, that's the way it goes.

Anyone out there who read those negetive reviews about this CD, DO NOT listen. This is a great CD, Shania Twain is awesome, and her music is the coolest. BUY THIS CD.

This is the best album of the 90's by a female artist period. They may not be slow Celion Dion type stuff as this album rocks! Nobody has the talent like Shania. Every song is good enough to become a single. Her husband "Mutt" Lange has the talent to produce and co write every song on this album to make it as big as it has become, selling 14 million albums! I think that is a record for him as he has produced The Cars and Def Leppard, all being popular groups, thanks to his excellent producing. The two together are dynamic. Buy this album as every song is a winner. 14 Million people can't be wrong.
