GREAT SONGS GREAT CD

Disadvantages: NONE

...only do i have the greatest hits album i also own the first two albums as well her first album come on over and her second album up. Shania twain has got to be one of the most contempery selling country singers her voice is very versitile she can take a country song such as KA-CHING and make it sound like a pop song yet still keeping her country style.

Review of Greatest Hits - Shania Twain

Going Up!

Advantages: Orignal tracks
Disadvantages: A couple of less inspired moments

... Her Albums Up to date Shania has released five studio albums: Shania Twain (1993), The Woman in Me (1995), Come on Over (1997), The Complete Limelight Sessions (2001), Up! (2002) and Greatest Hits (2004). Up Up was Shania’s fourth studio album and was released in November 2002. It is said that the material for the album was written and recorded across the world from Berlin and Vienna to the Bahamas and Mumbai. The album hit the top ...
...track analysis if you wish. Up as an album is a real gem in my opinion. All of the tracks are Shania Twain originals and therefore are completely unique. All of the songs on the album are interesting to listen to and tell a story, which is something I particularly like. A couple of the tracks are also quite humorous in places and really make a statement – usually a feminist (in a way) one. The music style changes frequently throughout the album and ...

Review of Up - Shania Twain

Tabor's finest hour

Advantages: Brilliant choice of material, expertly performed
Disadvantages: None

It would be difficult to find a better traditional British folk record than this. June Tabor's career was at its artistic peak when she recorded this in 1983, and in my opinion her voice has never come across on record as good as this, either before or since. She has achieved a fine balance of traditional and contemporary (songs by Bill Caddick, Lal Waterson and Joni Mitchell) material, and even where the songs weren't written especially for her, ...
...opener, trad song "The Month of January" sets the standard: Tabor's vocals over delicate, unobtrusive background instruments - a major plus factor for the entire disc. The modern songs, "The Scarecrow" and "She Moves Among Men" are haunting both musically and lyrically with their powerful evocations of abuse and neglect. On the latter the piano comes to the fore in a powerful solo which demonstrably illustrates the violence lurking beneath the surface ...
