Shania Twain - The Woman In Me
The Woman in Me was Shania's second release, and definitely the album that was her claim to fame. The album contained five smash singles, and has sold over twelve million copies. Add to that the continued success with Come On Over which also sold over ten million copies (19 million in the U.S. at last count), and Shania was like her name says "on her way."
This was also Shania's first album produced by her hubby, "Mutt" Lange, and all the songs were written by her, so this is a true representation of Shania as an artist. From the beginning notes of "Home Ain't Where His Heart Is Anymore" to the last notes of the beautiful "God Bless The Child," the album is a winner, with songs full of attitude, pain, and dreams.
If you like contemporary country, Shania's your gal. If you're looking for traditional country, you'll find none of it here.
