COME ON OVER was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Album Of The Year and Best Country Album. | | Following her smash hit THE WOMAN IN ME was no easy task for Shania Twain 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. | | Sounding like a disciple of Linda Ronstadt and Tina Turner with a dash of Tanya Tucker, Twain launches into country-club rockers like "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!," "Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)," and "Rock This Country!" with a fervor. A guest shot by singer Bryan White adds a touch of drama to the powerful "From This Moment On." Top-40 flavored tunes abound on the rest of the disc including "Love Gets Me Every Time," "If You Wanna Touch Her, Ask!," and even the country-fied hip-hop of "Honey, I'm Home." Finally, the acoustic ballad "You've Got A Way" adds a soft touch to round out the set. |
| | Artist Overview | | The ultimate Nashville outsider, Canadian Shania Twain (Eileen Regina Twain) took the country music world by storm with her second album, THE WOMAN IN ME. Famous for her midriff-baring outfits, Twain conquered the rest of the world with the 16-times platinum COME ON OVER, which brought her global pop success, a contract with Revlon cosmetics, and a Country Music Association Entertainer of the Year award. In 2002, Twain (along with producer/husband Robert "Mutt" Lange) made the unusual move of recording and releasing the album UP! in both country, pop, and world-music versions, revealing the full extent of her remarkable crossover status. |
