Shania Rocks This Country!

I was never really never much of a fan of country music or Shania (just thought a few of her tops hits were catchy). However after watching Live in Chicago Ive been converted and extremely impressed with her musical talent and stage performance. It doesnt hurt that shes also drop dead gorgeous. From start to finish its an incredibly energetic and lively performance. Rarely do you ever see such an artist perform with such natural charm and melody - talent that cannot be taught IMO. She is really something else and deserves all her popularity. Her band also plays every note perfectly, the instruments blend well with her vocals and the chemistry between them is really fun to watch. One of my favorite DVD concerts and a good demo to show off a HiFi system.

Julie Roberts has the voice of a country angel! The first time I heard "Break Down Here" I knew I had to have this cd. It has been in my cd player ever since! Every song has its own little flare and each as wonderful as the next. I can't wait for her next single "Wake Up Older." My personal favorite "Rain on a Tin Roof" but like I said they are all wonderful and close seconds haha. Do yourself a favor and grab this CD, you won't regret it

CD "Sapphire" ordered Friday, June 2, 2006 arrived Tuesday, June 6, 2006; I finally got around to opening it last Thursday, June 29, 2006.  What was I thinking...?  It's bad enough I was almost a month behind this CD's May 9, 2006 release date because I had heard nothing of it---but then, why had I not?  This CD is fabulous!  Much better than 2004's La Dona, on which Teena got a little more graphic than I was used to from her (I hated 'My Body's Hungry' and 'I'm On Fire'), but on "Sapphire," she returns to the "old school" style of singing not from the loins but from the soul and with the same strength and power that defined her in the eighties, proving that in 2006, she is still a force to be reckoned with.  I am presently listening to "Sapphire" which I just saved into my computer, and I am loving every bit of it!  With her voice, Teena wasn't born to do anything but sing, and she shows all of her vocal skills on the bluesy "Sapphire".  It is rhythmic, it is romantic, it is jazzy, it is classy, it is gangsta and it is golden, and she is accompanied by the young and the old, offering sixteen tracks that will be enjoyed by all.  On Track #2 entitled "Cruise Control," she and Smokey Robinson are 'Cruising" together, and I am presently on Track #11 entitled "You Blow Me Away," a slow tune dedicated to her mentor, the late Rick James that is so smooth I am literally blown away.  Plus, the way her skill as a songwriter is displayed throughout "Sapphire" makes it a true gem that's better than a diamond.  I am so glad I discovered its release looking for something else on Amazon.com's website a month ago, for Teena goes back to town on this one, restoring all the faith I ever had in her as a musical artist.  And I say that because short of Donna Summer, Cher, Barbra Streisand, Linda Ronstadt and Patti LaBelle, there has been no other female singer/songwriter that has come since Teena that can match her talent, not the 80's Madonna, not the 90's Mariah Carey, not the 2000's Beyonce, and I love all of these musical artists also.  Teena, it is so good to have you back.  Keep blowing me away, while blowing all the other female musical artists out of the water.  Saturday, July 8, 2006 at 1:12 p.m. EST.

She's not just acting. She's not just good looks. She's an awesome singer too! All the songs flow, and they sound really great! This is a getter!

2002 was such a lame year in music - this was a rare exception. This isn't some boring introspective singer-songwriter folk album, or some artsy-fartsy lo-fi indie-rock trash that mainstream and modern rock has become; this is what rock should be - loads of variety, fun, fun, fun and hooks galore with more than enough to go around!! Shania and Mutt Lange can write insinuating hooks and sensuous textures unlike most groups with half-baked, thrown-together songs. Also, Mutt Lange produced such classic rock gems such as AC/DC's BACK IN BLACK, The Cars' HEARTBEAT CITY, and of course, Def Leppard's PYROMANIA and HYSTERIA albums, so when he started producing his wife's music I knew I was in for something that sounded so good. THE WOMAN IN ME and COME ON OVER were so well executed that its stratospheric sales are no surprise, and with UP!, Shania and Mutt go a step further by offering each of the 19 songs in both "pop" (the red  disc) and "country" (the green disc) mixes (and in Europe and Asia, a blue disc with "eastern" flavored mixes). UP! should no doubt match it's predecessors sales' figures, and is definitely the best CD of 2002!! ("I'm Gonna Getcha Good" has gotta be the perfect pop song!) Ignore the music snobs and go UP! with Shania Twain!!

"Stacie Orrico" is a really great pop CD that I've ever heard in my life, since the first time I ever got it. The first single "Stuck" is a smash, and her other single "(There's Gotta Be) More To Life", is marvelous with meaningful lyrics. I love it! Her future single, "I Promise", is a lovely and wonderful song that would make a great single when it comes out. The rest of the songs on this album, are awesome, and the lyrics to the songs on all 12 tracks, are totally cool!

This album is absolutely amazing! Hillary Scott and her family have put together a remarkable selection of songs. From the first track to the last it captures your heart! Love how beautiful the harmonies are on this album. We all know what a remarkable singer Hillary is from all these years as part of Lady Antebellum but this album with her family brings another spectrum to her amazing singing.  I have loved Linda Davis and her music since the 90's and have wanted to hear a duet between Hillary and her mom Linda. On this album we get it. The song "The River" does not disappoint, absolutely love that song! It is hard to pick just one favorite song on this album because they all are so amazing, but if I had to choose... Love Remains would be it!  You get a feeling of peace, faith and hope after listening to this album. You can hear and feel that Hillary, Linda, Lang & Rylee put their hearts and souls into this album. Highly recommend you buy this album, best album of 2016, and I assure you that you won't be disappointed!

If you like Shania - you will love this album.  As usual, it is full of catchy tunes and sassy lyrics.  With 19 songs on the CD...you more than get your money's worth.  Every track is GREAT!

Carrie's new disc is LITTERED with good songs. From the catchy "Good Girl", to the inspired "Nobody Ever Told You" (my fave), to the heartbreaking "Wine After Whiskey" to the beautiful "Good In Goodbye", most of these are very good tracks. I appreciate that Underwood is writing more and more as her career goes on because it's inspiring to hear her own lyrics and thoughts instead of someone else's like on her first disc (which is my favorite still, great disc!).

2009's&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Play-On/dp/B002DYJAIY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Play On</a>&nbsp;had some good tracks too, but also some filler. Besides the average "Thank God For Hometowns" this album was a true success. I am blessed to have watched American Idol season 4, saw Carrie win and allowed to follow her blossoming career. Also blessed to experience a voice like hers. She and Taylor Swift are my favorite artists in the country pop genre. No contest.

4.25 stars (not an average).

After being out of the recording studio for years due to personal problems in her life, most notably a nasty divorce, Shania Twain is gearing up for the release of her new album, due to be in stores sometime in the fall of 2012. First up, though, is this beautiful self-penned song of Shania's called "Today Is Your Day", a song that is positive in attitude and shows that anyone faced with hardships can overcome them with sheer determination, gutso and drive, all attributes Shania has. The song is catchy, fun and will haunt your memory for a long time. By the way Shania's voice has never sounded better.

 I for one cannot wait for Miss Twain's new album! This has been a long time coming. Welcome back girl!

This CD is AMAZING! There are about 8 outstanding songs here. TIME WORK YOUR MAGIC is a great pop tune, written by Debbie's Drummer. The sexy SCRATCHES also comes from the drummer, and it is excellent. BLUE AND LOMESONE is Deb's best vocal, with great blues feeling and guitar playing. BACKSEAT DRIVER is a great rock n' roll number, with interesting lyrics. FINE LOOKING MAN? is another outstanding rocking tune. ROOM WITH A VIEW is excellent, with a nice jazz/blues format, with excellent singing by Deb. There are some other good tunes in this package. There is no doubt in my mind that Debbie Davies is THE BEST POP ARTIST EVER!!: GREAT SINGING, SONGWRITER, VERY GOOD LEAD GUITARIST, EXCELLENT RYTHM GUITARIST, AND, ALL HER RECORDS HAVE GREAT SOUND AND GOOD PRODUCTION.

Shania Twain's new album Up! Is the best album she has done to date. Shania's highly anticipated album was definitely not a let-down. She has used a new style of music, and one that I have noticed is her use of her voice. She has reached new heights with it.
This Is a must-buy cd. More powerful than Come On Over. You will be glad that you bought it...

Look, I love metal, so this might be odd for some to see that I'm reviewing a Lita Ford song (I did review her new album, which is fantastic).  This is her, in her hey day -back when "hair bands" ruled MTV (and were wrongly called metal, I might add).  This is a great hard rock song, great vocals and if you've seen the video -whew!!! She still looks good! Great 80's hair band tune!

Shania fans are going to enjoy this DVD!  She sings all of her hits and some new songs from the UP album that she performs live in this Chicago concert only.  The pyro technics are awesome.  She is so interactive with her audience that she even invite a few fans to sing/dance on stage with her.  A must have!

This C.D. is more country than the last couple Tim McGraw albums.  They were starting to get a bit pop, which was great, but this album brings out more of the country.  I heard the song red rag top and I had to have the cd!  It's an incredible song!  I also have to say that about the rest of the cd after I have listened to it all.  I highly recommend this cd!
