She hadn't yet hooked up with producer/hubby Mutt Lange, so there's less pop crossover material here than on her subsequent releases. Instead, mainstream country is the order of the day: romantic ballads colored by appropriately sorrowful-sounding steel guitar, and perky up-tempo numbers capable of inducing a line-dance at a moment's notice.Twain's emergence as a bared-navel sex symbol was still in the future, so there's less of a focus on the randy, sensual material that would characterize albums like COME ON OVER. God Ain't Gonna Getcha For That explores the mores of the honky-tonk lifestyle, while There Goes the Neighborhood is a chronicle of the domestic carnage that occurs around the narrator. Many changes would occur in the years to come, but SHANIA TWAIN still sports the lovely yet brassy voice and carefully constructed tunes that the singer's fans have come to expect from their heroine.[Reviews]Rolling Stone (11/25/93, p.112) - 3 Stars - Good - ...[Shania] Twain displays the grit and maturity of a woman who's experienced life to the depths on [SHANIA TWAIN]...n
Advantages: Great tracks Disadvantages: Some songs may seem abit sameish to some
Shania Twain repersents country music very commerically. Her albums and singles (of what i have heard) have been fantastic. Her songs are consistant and they show definite talent and songwriting talent. Her voice is great and adapts to country pop and pop ballads. Shania Twain's tracks are fairly country but have ranged to the likes of pop and rock as well.
Shania Twain's had many albums out, the self titled ''Shania Twain'' was not recieved commerically ... ...time. Follow up albums to Shania Twain's debut album, have also achieved such critical acclaim and platinum status.
Latest new release from Shania Twain was ''Up!'' this is a fantastically amazing album - every track flows on from each other and the tracks are meaningful and country - brilliant album. Given all the hits released by Shania Twain, ''Party For Two'' is the single Shania Twain uses to duet with two fairlessly unknown country singers ...

Advantages: Great songs, catchy, lots of albums Disadvantages: A bit annoying after the millionth listen
Some people think Shania Twain is annoying, and I can kind of see their point that afer a lot of listens her songs do become repetitive. However, I really like her uptempo, country-stylr, catchy songs such as "Don't Be Stupid", "Man! I Feel Like A Woman" and "That Don't Impress Me Much". She has also made some ballads such as "You're Still The One" and my favourite "From This Moment On". Overall, Shania is a grreat artist with some great songs. She ...
