 Excellent debut album May 10, 2007
This is Shania's first album. It didn't become the huge commercial success that the subsequent two albums did, but don't judge it by that. This album has a distinctly more country flavor to it, as opposed to the pop/country mix of subequent albums. So it will be more pleasing to country purists, but is not so "traditional" as to put out fans of other genres. Shania brings to the songs in this album all of the energy and force as to the songs in other albums. The uptempo stuff [What Made You Say That, God Aint Gonna Getcha for That, Crime of the Century] really move along and will make the listener tap the foot. They're nicely balanced by ballads that are meaningful and not at all lugubrious. This album can be listened to straight through without becoming impatient and reaching for the skip button. A winner.
Alright January 11, 2007
This cd is alright. It is too short to be a shania twain cd. It has some good songs like: What made you say that?, and God ain't gonna get you for that.

SHANIA HADN'T HOOKED UP WITH MUTT. THE MATRIAL IS GOOD. IT IS JUST HER EARLY MATRAIL WITHOUT MUTT.
This album will grow on you... February 11, 2006

I have only just obtained a copy of this album and I can safely say I REALLY like it. The first three tracks are also on the 'Platinum Collection' DVD but the rest are terrific, and 'Crime of the Century' just blew me away!
In my opinion the only artist in my album collection who comes close to Shanias effortlessly belting performance here is Patsy Cline, so if you like her you'll like this.
I know it wasn't overly successful at the time but as a retrospective I think Shania should be proud to have it in her back catalogue. It's a faultless debut and a very worthy addition to any Shania fans collection.
You may not think so at first but it WILL grow on you...
 Shania's Largely Overlooked Debut Worth Checking Out June 17, 2004
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I got this album when I saw it in BMG around the time The Woman In Me was huge. I got it because I loved Shania. Although the album is by no means great, it is still a good debut album. Some of the songs aren't really all that special, and her personality doesn't shine through the way it does in her later work. The thing that works in the album's favor is Shania's voice. Her voice turns even the most generic songs on this album into something worth listening to. My favorite song on the album is "Got a Hold On Me", which is the song here that hints the most at the greatness that was soon to come. Even if you're not a huge fan of country music but you love Shania, this CD is only about 30 minutes long, so if you don't like it, it's not too long to be unbearable. However, I think you will like it because this album shows that Shania had a lot of talent even when she was working with producers who didn't really know how to pick the right material for her. It's worth buying.
