I thought “Come on Over” was Shania’s peak, but admittedly I never bought “Up!” So I’m going just on the singles (I bought Come on Over and Woman in Me). For me, the “Up” singles were so so at best. I liked “Getcha Good,” but “Up!” had that line about growing a beard that hugely turned me off. None of the other singles interested me enough to buy the album. Though I’ll admit I do like “Party For Two” from the greatest hits and I watch the video on youtube now and then. But for me, I lost interest in buying a third Shania CDthanks to the singles released on country radio.

I adore this song. The steel guitar has such a sweet warmth to it – I rarely listen to the pop mix. And it is indeed one of Twain’s absolute best performances – She’s rarely sounded finer.

You sure nailed it with regard to Up! being Twain’s artistic peak. I love all three of her successful albums, and I enjoy her debut for what it is, but Up! is the one I come back to most often. Besides it being the first Twain album I listened to, it’s the one I enjoy the most from beginning to end (despite it being by far her longest album with a whopping 19 tracks).
