Shania Twain--recluse, happily married, mother of one--has sold more than 40 million albums with flirty, hook-laden, beat-heavy, country-tinged pop that has all the subtlety of a musical wet T-shirt contest, yet is as irresistible as Swiss chocolate and Pringles. There are a few heartfelt, moon-in-June love ballads on this generous and long-awaited 20-song collection, which includes three new songs along with all the predictable chart-toppers and near-chart-toppers. But it's the mostly nonstop, uptempo booty-shakers--too often with garish overproduction and vapid lyrics--that, for the unconverted, tend to run together after a while. No doubt, this relentlessly upbeat retrospective will keep Twain's millions of fans jumping up and down on their sofas. --Bob Allen

5 out of 5 stars Shania Twain - Greatest Hits.......2007-06-08

This CD is greatest. Her music is very moving. This is now my greatest CD. I am very glad I chose this one. You will not be disappointed at all.

5 out of 5 stars Love it!.......2007-04-30

This album has alot of my favorites, plus the 2 versions of "I'm Having a Party", and "I Ain't No Quitter". The guitar play in "Quitter" is so good-extremely catchy! I love, love, love "Ain't no Quitter" and don't understand why it didn't have more airtime. And "Having A Party" just makes you want to move - it's so totally upbeat. Plus all the other songs-I love all of her music, so it's hard for me to pick favorites. I have all of Shania's albums and download them onto miy MP3 so I can hear them while I work out, etc. I'm anxiously waiting for her to give us another album! BUt this is a great one to buy and enjoy.

4 out of 5 stars JUST what I was looking for!.......2007-04-21

No, seriously, this is GOOD! I got some birthday money and I wanted a Shania Twain album, but I wanted all her best songs on one CD. Then, this came out: It had all the songs I wanted and then some! It is just awesome. She has a great voice that's easy on the ears, her lyrics really flow together, and her songs are in a variety of sounds - not just all sound the same, like SOME of the artists you get these days!
And my aunty and my mum like her, so finally I can play some music I like in the car without being griped at!
A fantastic album, everyone whos loving pop and/or country music should sooooooo get this!

The come-from-nowhere success of Shania Twain's previous album, The Woman in Me, proved that the world was ready for a combination of traditional instruments, girl-power themes, and dance-pop dynamics. Whether Twain is a modern-day Dolly Parton or a country music Spice Girl is a matter of perspective. But with her third album, she accentuates the sing-along choruses and simple dance rhythms while downplaying the country elements. As a pop move, it works wonderfully for her, earning Twain a valued spot on MTV, VH-1, and pop radio. The emphasis is on fun rather than depth, of course. But no one can accuse her of being stingy: she and her Svengali-like producer/husband, slick-rock king Robert "Mutt" Lange (Def Leppard, Bryan Adams, AC/DC), load down the album with 16 songs, all of them quite radio-friendly. --Michael McCall

1 out of 5 stars great cd......to be used as a bagel plate.......2007-01-25

Ever notice how all country music girls are attractive? That's because the industry that writes all their songs for them need a pretty face so they can sell their records in higher quantities. If you think these artists write all their own songs then you must be naive enough to believe that Jessica Simpson is popular because of her music talent and not her looks. Why do you think country music lyrics are all the same? 'All my exes were at the family reunion', 'Her teeth were stained but her heart was pure', I mean come on, they're all written by the same industry. Real musicians aren't usually attractive, because they're too busy writing their own music to care.

4 out of 5 stars Cheerful Pop Girl Power........2007-01-13

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.

5 out of 5 stars At the very top of her game!.......2006-10-21

Shania Twain is an excellent performer and this album represents in my opinion some of her best work. I think her personality comes across strongly on this album and the songs are great.

I must admit I don't like what Shania Twain's later music evolved into nearly as much as this older stuff. I think in this album she was more driven by her own inner creativity and less by mass marketing concerns.

The ballads here are heartfelt and the faster songs convey an enthusiasm for life and youthful exuberance. While Shania is certainly sexy with a lot of charisma, she is also an incredible performer and worthy of her reputation. I can still remember the first time I heard her on THE WOMAN IN ME. I still love this album as well.

If you are going to own one or two Shania Twain albums and not get any others, I recommend that this is one of the two to buy. If you don't like the earlier country sound, try her newer stuff. However, I think this older material is more representative of where her heart truly lies and for me it comes across lound and clear through the speakers.

5 out of 5 stars This could be a greatest hits CD.......2006-08-08

This CD by Shania Twain could be a greatest hits CD. There is a lot of hits on this CD. There are 11 songs on this CD that were singles on country music radio. Man! I Feel Like A Woman is a fun song that is up-beat and a good dance tune. I'm Holdin' On To Love To Save My Life is another up-beat song on this CD that you could dance to. The first single Love Gets me Every Time is about how love gets her by surprise and she has gone and done it again (Fell In Love). Don't Be Stupid is a good song with sounds of fiddles when the song starts out. The video is very good also. It reminds me of The River Dancers. From This Moment On with Bryan White is a very good job of vocal collaberation. They both do a very good job on this song together. You're Still The One is about her love for her husband and the video is very sexy and romantic. Honey, I'm Home is my favorite song on this CD. The woman has a bad day and she comes home and has her husband treat her like a queen. She asks him to pour her a cold one and fix her something to eat and fix her a treat. The end of the song she ask him to massage her and it makes her feel better. That Don't Impress Me Much is a song about men who love to show off and no matter who they are and what they do it doesn't impress her at all. You've Got A Way is the last song and it is very romantic about a man and a woman and how he makes her feel good about herself. All the songs on this CD are very good and I enjoy every one of them. This is one CD that Shania Twain will never out do with any other CD.

Give Shania Twain points for honesty. Up!, her first new release in five years, offers both pop and country versions of the same 19 songs, the red disc boasting pop renditions while the green proffers country. It's a smart idea, since it allows Twain the freedom to dress a song in whatever arrangements and instrumentation she pleases--without setting herself up for criticism as to whether Canada's Queen of the Bare Midriff spat on the Holy Grail of Nashville. Often, the only difference is the substitution of pedal steel, fiddle, and banjo for strings, guitars, and keyboards. In these situations, where she employs the same riffs and melodic strains, the country version usually pales in comparison; however, the green disc wins on those songs where the subject matter hits closer to home, especially the unwed mother tune "I Ain't Goin' Down." Twain was never truly a country singer--she was merely marketed that way--and her red disc particularly pleases, while making no excuses. She is what she is: a perky lounge singer with a calculatedly honeyed voice, a penchant for inane lyrics--often about absolutely nothing--and, in tandem with her husband, Mutt Lange, a masterful command of rhythm, production, and mood. ("I'm Gonna Getcha Good!" is confection perfection.) There's something oddly hypnotic about much of this project, and it may be simply hearing what Shania can do when she abandons the pretense of being a country singer and concentrates on music. Call this a guilty pleasure--pop, country, or somewhere in between. --Alanna Nash

5 out of 5 stars Great Variety.......2007-04-30

I love the title son "Up" - but there are sooo many songs on this albusm-Shania really likes to give her fans their money's worth. I had to listen to a few a couple of times, at first, they are so different from her previous style. And so many songs! Maybe there's too many-I mean, I don't think some of my favorites got much airtime-In My Car Ill Be the Driver-I thought for sure that would be a really big hit. And "No Particular Way"--that is really great. Not pop-not countryi-I don't know, but I really enjoyed it. And, "I'm Not in the Mood" pop version, really has a great beat. Of Course, "Forever and Always", GOnna Getcha Good, and many others, are good, too. She is my absolute favorite female artist-my kids introduced me to her years ago with "An Man of Mine", and I've been hooked ever since.

3 out of 5 stars Creative CD, but not as good as her previous.......2007-03-08

Shania Twain is one of my favorite country artists, but this isn't her best. Although the album isn't her best, she did come up with a creative idea to turn it into a double-disc release, showing her "grassy" roots on one version and displaying her modern/pop style on the other. So, the album provides you with two different flavors of the same tracks, which is a nifty idea, but there are only a handful of songs that I felt was worth listening to. I'm more of a country ballad fan than the up-tempo, twangy sound, so her ballads are what caught my ear. "Forever, For Always" is a nice ballad, but definitely has a decently-paced melody to keep you from falling asleep. My favorite track is "When You Kiss Me", which is more of a sappy ballad, but I tend to favor those over the up-tempo material. "It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing" is another nice, smooth ballad, and resembles more of a pop ballad than classic country. However, most of Shania's songs border on pop rather than classic country, so if you're not a true grassy-country fan, then her stuff might be what you're looking for.

5 out of 5 stars The best of both worlds........2007-02-28

I recieved this CD for Christmas and I thought,"Shania Twain...? Oh boy." I listened to it and fell in love. Even if you're not into country music, disc 2 gives all of the songs a pop twist. I enjoyed it emmensely and would recommend it to everyone slightly interested in it.

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant marketing and songs.......2006-11-12

Shania Twain is still country pop's reigning queen (Faith's last album puts her more in the country category than pop anymore). Her smooth, warm and soulful singing abilities are still in fine form on Up! and the songs (despite a five year hiatus) still sound as fresh and engaging as anything before she took that extended break in my opinion. The clever marketing to include both pop and country discs of the same song sets is brilliant since Twain is known for being able to pull off both genres. Highlights are title track "Up," "I'm Gonna Getcha," "It Only Hurts," "C'est," "Nah," "KaChing," "Thank You," "Waiter" and "What a Way." Impressive and likable. With this album Shania is only going up from here!

3 out of 5 stars smart marketing.......2006-07-31

I'm not a fan of country music at all so it's good that there is a pop CD and a country CD on this set, perfect for both pop fans and country fans, and for the younger crowd to enjoy the pop. Her singles were everywhere during the time of this CD although not at the levels of come on over, my favourite song is thank you baby, it reminds me of tears for fears everybody wants to rule the world.

Shania Twain comes full circle on this album, cowriting 11 out of 12 cuts and proving that she can do more than sing. Once again she crosses over into pop-rock territory with this multiplatinum affair, bringing legions of new fans into the country camp. Peppered with hits such as "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?" and "Any Man of Mine," Twain's sophomore effort features crisp and clear vocals and country-flavored pop arrangements. Husband and cowriter "Mutt" Lange, known for his production work with hard hitters Def Leppard, has produced a fresh sound for country, enhancing the traditional with a more gritty, gutsy sound; even the more delicate tunes resemble those power-pop tunes from the 1980s. This is music for all occasions: danceable, romantic, and powerful. --Paula Ghergia

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Shania Twain at her absolute best, great songs too!.......2006-10-21

This is the first Shania Twain album that I ever bought and it still sounds as fresh to me as the day I bought it. Her personality and gift for singing with real feeling comes across here more strongly than most of her albums. There is a sensitivity, warmth and zest for life that is communicated that is hard to put into words. Both the fast and slow songs on this album are very good and the ballads are particularly moving.

5 out of 5 stars Spunkiest Cowgirl of Any County.......2006-08-19

Shania Twain is thoroughly entertaining. She bridges the sexes and most major categories of pop music with her spirited vocals and spunky attitude. On her smash 'Come on Over' she conquered country, pop, and rock with numerous fusions that made a fun ride. Truer to country, this previous effort is even better overall. Her tender moments resonate well, and the progressive numbers do what no one has done before. She does to "hot new country" what Patsy Cline did to country in its modern beginning.

Her tenderness is done with finesse on her opener, "Home Ain't Where His Heart Is (Anymore)," but is even bettered on "Raining on Our Love" Then she really kicks it into gear with a fun gallop on "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under," "You Win My Love," and "No One Needs to Know". But, if these numbers don't win you over, her smash hit, "If You're Not in It for Love (I'm Outta Here)" is worth the price of the CD. With vocals that ably fill the ebb and flow of the spunkiest country song--possibly ever conceived--the band actually fills up in a big way what even her voice can't even do. (Her back-up band is particularly accomplished on this album.)

There isn't a bad song on 'Woman in Me,' and, while 'Come on Over' is the favorite commercially (and maybe even more entertaining) 'The Woman in Me' showcases women's country where no one has tread before.

4 out of 5 stars She started with Country, now it's pure (heavy) POP.......2006-04-24

The first Shania Twain record I bought was Come On Over and
although it was a #1 worldwide smash, I didn't like it except
for some ballads. I thought..is this Country? And if it is so
what happended to Country music during the 90's? The only thing
left on most songs is the steel guitar but the rest are screaming
electric guitars + lots of other noises. It seems like heavy
rock to me compared to Country music from the 60's through the
80's. With the second try of a Shania Twain record it was again
a flop. "Up" has some nice ballads but out of 19 songs only 3
or 4 are bearable. Since 1997 Shania Twain cannot be considered
a Country artist nor a crossover artist. It's pure Pop.
My last try, however, was this "Woman in me" because all the
reviews said it was more country like. This is true. Shania
Twain WAS Country during the first half of the 90's. On this
CD at least 8 out of 12 are real nice. Instead of buying new
material I will go backwards and get the first Shania's records.

9.) Raining On Our Love- NAH!
10.)Leaving Is The Only Way Out-Don't care for it
11.)No One Needs To Know-The Reason I Bought the Movie "TWISTER"
12.)God Bless The Child-Not as good as the video version but alright.

5 out of 5 stars Not Bad!.......2006-11-02

This is very different from Shania's other music. But I think its good none the less. Not usually up my alley but this one is pretty good. I love Shania's music so of course I wanted this one. This was actually a gift to me. Good album over all. I'm 16 btw and I still enjoy this album! However I reccomend listening to this album first before buying it.

2 out of 5 stars Beginnings.......2006-07-18

This was truly the beginnings for Shania. Most of it sounds like just about any other ordinary singer...before she developed her unique style. The voice is still beautiful, but without any of her true depth & feeling.

5 out of 5 stars Hardcore Shania fans only.......2006-05-08

I only recommend this cd for hardcore Shania fans as it's a 80's rock album. I think its a great album but not Shania's best. Again hardcore Shania fans only (like me)

5 out of 5 stars Excellent debut album.......2007-05-10

This is Shania's first album. It didn't become the huge commercial success that the subsequent two albums did, but don't judge it by that. This album has a distinctly more country flavor to it, as opposed to the pop/country mix of subequent albums. So it will be more pleasing to country purists, but is not so "traditional" as to put out fans of other genres. Shania brings to the songs in this album all of the energy and force as to the songs in other albums. The uptempo stuff [What Made You Say That, God Aint Gonna Getcha for That, Crime of the Century] really move along and will make the listener tap the foot. They're nicely balanced by ballads that are meaningful and not at all lugubrious. This album can be listened to straight through without becoming impatient and reaching for the skip button. A winner.

4 out of 5 stars Alright.......2007-01-11

This cd is alright. It is too short to be a shania twain cd. It has some good songs like: What made you say that?, and God ain't gonna get you for that.

5 out of 5 stars NICE EARLY MATRIAL FOR THE FANS!.......2006-02-21

SHANIA HADN'T HOOKED UP WITH MUTT. THE MATRIAL IS GOOD. IT IS JUST HER EARLY MATRAIL WITHOUT MUTT.

5 out of 5 stars This album will grow on you..........2006-02-11

I have only just obtained a copy of this album and I can safely say I REALLY like it. The first three tracks are also on the 'Platinum Collection' DVD but the rest are terrific, and 'Crime of the Century' just blew me away!

In my opinion the only artist in my album collection who comes close to Shanias effortlessly belting performance here is Patsy Cline, so if you like her you'll like this.

I know it wasn't overly successful at the time but as a retrospective I think Shania should be proud to have it in her back catalogue. It's a faultless debut and a very worthy addition to any Shania fans collection.

You may not think so at first but it WILL grow on you...

3 out of 5 stars Shania's Largely Overlooked Debut Worth Checking Out.......2004-06-17

I got this album when I saw it in BMG around the time The Woman In Me was huge. I got it because I loved Shania. Although the album is by no means great, it is still a good debut album. Some of the songs aren't really all that special, and her personality doesn't shine through the way it does in her later work. The thing that works in the album's favor is Shania's voice. Her voice turns even the most generic songs on this album into something worth listening to. My favorite song on the album is "Got a Hold On Me", which is the song here that hints the most at the greatness that was soon to come. Even if you're not a huge fan of country music but you love Shania, this CD is only about 30 minutes long, so if you don't like it, it's not too long to be unbearable. However, I think you will like it because this album shows that Shania had a lot of talent even when she was working with producers who didn't really know how to pick the right material for her. It's worth buying.

The come-from-nowhere success of Shania Twain's previous album, The Woman in Me, proved that the world was ready for a combination of traditional instruments, girl-power themes, and dance-pop dynamics. Whether Twain is a modern-day Dolly Parton or a country music Spice Girl is a matter of perspective; on Come on Over, she accentuates the sing-along choruses and simple dance rhythms while downplaying the country elements. As a pop move, it works wonderfully for Twain, earning her a valued spot on MTV, VH1, and pop radio. The emphasis is on fun rather than depth, of course, but no one can accuse her of being stingy: she and her producer/husband, slick-rock king Robert "Mutt" Lange (Def Leppard, Bryan Adams, AC/DC), load down the album with 16 songs, all of them quite radio-friendly. This U.S. issue of the "international version" pushes the record's many hit singles even further toward pop with a slate of remixes. --Michael McCall

5 out of 5 stars Girly or Not, I Really Like This Record.......2007-06-05

Shania Twain's album Come On Over is best yet. At least I think so. No matter what you listen to -- rock, blues, R & B, Jazz, whatever -- this is an album you're sure to enjoy, even though it's exceptionally girly, but what can I say, she's a wonderful singer and she really shows what a girl can do. This album can get you syked and pumped for any and everything and match any of your moods. Women go through many different experiences and these songs really nail them.

5 out of 5 stars Un disco excelente.......2006-03-14

Esta es la producción que lanzó al estrellato a Shania, claro, su camino andado la llevó a tener un disco de esta calidad.

Las versiones que hay en Come On Over [international] son muy especiales y tienen sonidos que cambian en comparación con las otras versiones que hay.

Simplemente recomendable al 100%

2 out of 5 stars disappointed with International Version.......2006-02-24

I was expecting it to have a lot of International type music to it but it virtually sounded the same as the original. I think I may have mistaken this cd title for another of Shania's. Her music is great but I don't see a difference with the international version.

Album Description

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Up! The blue disc is awesome!!!.......2007-04-20

I had ordered the Up! International version and I must say I loved the blue disc so much! The songs are very beautifully mixed in with Indian instruments and it brings new flavor to the Up! songs on the green and red disc (which I might add I love also).

All three discs accompany each other and each disc are different for the different genre of Shania's fans: Country, pop and rock, and finally her international fans.

I love 'I'm Jealous' on the blue disc. It is very beautifully written and mixed and each Indian instruments help bring out a deep-slow moving ballad that touches the heart. A beautiful love song!!!

Others that I love are C'est La Vie, I'm Gonna Getcha Good, In My Car I'll Be The Driver, I'm Not In The Mood To Say No.

The Blue disc is a must for any Shania Twain fans!

4 out of 5 stars One of the best CD's........2007-01-11

Well, what can I say about Shania except that she's very talented. She hasn't made an album that I didn't like. I love this CD. Has a lot of songs that I really like. The green CD (Country) is the best. The red CD (Pop) is good. The blue CD (International) is a bit strange. The music on the green and red CD's accompany well, but the blue just doesn't seem to fit. If you want to take a chance, then buy the International version which includes the red and blue CD's. Otherwise, just stick to the US version which includes the green and red CD's.

3 out of 5 stars A musical experiment love it or hate it.......2006-04-28

Up international~ I have the American edition but i have got to listen to the cd tracks through the genius creation of the net. It is very different and Americans and pop influenced areas of the UK, Australia etc. all have to realize we are hearing music style that is accepted in the global market that Shania was targeting. It isn't what we're used to at all but in respect it is unique to us and just strange but thats because it's new. Tracks on the blue version like, Juanita, I'm Jealous, Pretty Face, Forever For Always and Ka- Ching best showcase what Shania was wanting to achieve. This version doesn't fit all the songs and it is an experience that just has to be appreciated because it was saying to all her fans hey I want you guys to enjoy me too!!

I still say everyone should give it some credit even if it is so different.

1 out of 5 stars If you like hard rock then it's OK.......2006-04-24

I thought I was buying a country record but except for 2 or 3
nice songs the rest is screatching electric guitars, 3 sets
of drums, shouting back vocals....it's hard rock and I hate
that.
The grean CD - supposed to be the Country versions - is pure
nonsense. It's somewhat less noisy and you hear some more
steel guitar. I just do not understand how Shania is considered
as a country artist. She probably was during the early 90's but
after the interruption of Garth Brooks, Country music changed
into heavy rock and Nashville didn't stop this trend towards it.
If you like Country and want to listen to it you will have to
buy remastered versions of artists from the 60's, 70's and 80's
like I do. Nowadays -again- I inmensely enjoy listening to f.e.
Gene Watson, Johnny Duncan, Johnny Lee, Moe Bandy, Charlie Rich
etc. etc. etc. That's what I call Country and not this "heavy,
punk-like pop rock whatsoever!

3 out of 5 stars International version nothing great.......2006-03-21

The "international" version is nothing more than the American release vocals with an Indian-flavored background band used in place of the rock or country musicians used on the "red" and "green" versions, respectively. Maybe Sade's songs could be "massaged" with this style to create interesting versions of a CD's worth of tunes, but the result on UP sounds goofy and hard to listen to... like you've hired Ravi Shankar to play lead guitar for the Rolling Stones. If this version of Shania's album ever became popular ANYWHERE, I would be really surprised. Stick to the red or green versions of this CD.

3 out of 5 stars Not for 'fair weather' fans, but an interesting retrospective..........2006-02-11

To all those who like to attach themselves to the Shania bandwagon then try to claim her 'talent' is entirely down to Mutt Lange I have this to say - You have obviously never attended one of her hugely successful live performances...

This album is typical of the late '80's pop-rock genre Shania gravitated towards on account of her early career whilst supporting her siblings after the death of their parents.

As a fan of, say, 'Foreigner' or 'Heart' I can safely say that Shanias performances here do not lack anything in comparison. Not forgetting either that these are by no means polished album tracks produced for general release, being only re-mixed demo tapes.

If you want a perfect example of how good her vocals are on this album, record yourself singing to a backing track in your bathroom at home to see how awfull this could have sounded - and just how much potential there was waiting to come through.

'Lost My Heart' and 'For The Love' are my personal favourites here and ably demonstrate her ability to belt out a good song with passion and committment.

Take no notice of the tinny quality of the music recording, concentrate instead on that amazing voice and be glad she had the grit and tenacity to pursue her dreams, thus providing us with the great vocal talent we came to appreciate - not to mention the pleasing aesthetic qualities she brings to our screens.

And take no notice of the poor reviews listed here - In my humble opinion there really hasn't been much thought employed therein.

4 out of 5 stars Country Purists Beware (ah ain't no country purist).......2005-09-14

This is definitely NOT one of those discs where dreadful demos from a superstar's early days are dredged up and carelessly remixed to make a cheap buck. At least it doesn't sound that way. These are well-produced pop/rock (and a little dance) songs Ms. T. did in the late 1980s. The "packaging" is nice too, including terrific photos and good liner notes too (but see below). And even a slipcase. I like slipcases.

The red-state folks who need Shania to be strictly a "country" artist and turn a blind eye to her pretty-darn-good pop remixes probably won't be able to deal with this, as it could lead to dancing of the non-line variety. But us more "liberal" fans OK with our singers stretching sometimes will find much to enjoy here. Ironically, some of the crunchiest of these ("Wild and Wicked", "Hate To Love", "Luv Eyes") sound a bit like what producer/hubby "Mutt" Lange turns out with bad boys like Def Leppard. Go figure.

Early standouts for me, are "Lost My Heart", both mixes of "It's Alright", and "Bite My Lip." In "Lip", Eileen Shania tolerates...barely...unwelcome advances from the boss, then her boyfriend cancelling on their dinner date.

One fairly big omission in the liner notes: I caught 2 additional songs NOT written by Paul Sabu and Eileen Regina Lange. "For the Love" is a remake of the late Bobbi Martin's 1970 hit "For the Love of Him" and was written by Martin and Al Mortimer. "Half-Breed" (yes, the Cher song) was written by Al Capps and Mary Dean. Just trying to give credit where credit is due, that's me...

Nice surprise. Nice price. Recommended.

3 out of 5 stars Great Stuff!.......2005-07-18

I bought this cd expecting it to be awful, but I actually really enjoy over half of the songs. It's nice to hear a more raw sounding Shania, and I think some of these songs really show how powerful her voice can be. So if your open to a different sound from a different time but with a familiar voice, than this cd is for you.
