The Queen of country pop ‘Shania Twain’
turns 49 today. Twain has sold more than 85 million albums. She has received 5
Grammy Awards, 27 BMI Songwriter awards, stars on Canada's Walk of Fame and the
Hollywood Walk of Fame, and an induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
Shania Twain is a lady who spun magic
with her voice. Her songs provide a feeling of liveliness, happiness, and
gaiety. Most of her songs revolve around love and the expectations rising
through it.
The reason why we still groove over her
songs, because her songs states life crucial things in a peppy way. On her
birthday, we bring you her top 7 all-time songs.
1. You’re
still the One
The song is
upbeat, simple, and full of love. It underlines the fact that two people are
going happy by being in a relationship with each other. The way the feel about
each other can never change.
“When I first saw
you, I saw love.
And the first
time you touched me, I felt love.
And after all
this time, you're still the one I love.
Looks like we
made it
Look how far
we've come, my baby
We mighta took
the long way
We knew we'd get
there someday”
2. That don’t
impress me much
So, you think you
can woo a woman? Think again as Shania Twain tells you – That don’t impress me
much.
“I've known a few
guys who thought they were pretty smart
But you've got
being right down to an art
You think you're
a genius-you drive me up the wall
You're a regular
original, a know-it-all
Oh-oo-oh, you
think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you
think you're something else
Okay, so you're a
rocket scientist
That don't
impress me much”
3. Come on over
Life is simple.
Do not complicate it. Do the way Shania tells you and you will definitely feel
light.
“Get a life-get a
grip
Get away
somewhere, take a trip
Take a break-take
control
Take advice from
someone you know
Come on over-come
on in
Pull up a
seat-take a load off your feet
Come on over-come
on in
You can
unwind-take a load off your mind.”
4. Ka-Ching
A melodious take
on world’s hypocrisy. No one other than Shania would have described it so beautifully.
“We live in a
greedy little world--
that teaches
every little boy and girl
To earn as much
as they can possibly--
then turn around
and
Spend it
foolishly
We've created us
a credit card mess
We spend the
money that we don't possess
Our religion is
to go and blow it all
So it's shoppin'
every Sunday at the mall.”
5. Forever and for
always
Love makes world
go around and that is what Twain is describing in this song.
“In your arms I
can still feel the way you
want me when you
hold me
I can still hear
the words you whispered
when you told me
I can stay right
here forever in your arms
And there ain't
no way--
I'm lettin' you
go now
And there ain't
no way--
and there ain't
no how
I'll never see
that day....”
6. Don’t be stupid
Does an
over-possessive lover surround you? Make him/her hear this song. They will
understand. Love comes with space for each partner.
“You're so
complicated-you hang over my shoulder
When I read my
mail
I don't
appreciate it
When I talk to
other guys
You think they're
on my tail
I get so
aggravated when I get off the phone
And I get the
third degree
I'm really
feelin' frustrated
Why don't you
take a pill and put a little trust in me
And you'll see
Don't freak out
until you know the facts
Relax”
7. I’m Outta Here
Next time, a guy
is flirting with you, just rewind the lyrics of this song. Make it crystal
clear that is he is not in love – he cannot flirt either.
“Mind if I sit
down?
Can I buy you a
round?
Haven't seen your
face before
Are you new in
town?
It's the same old
line
Oh every time
Are you here
alone?
Can I take you
home?
Now every woman
sees
With every
"pretty please"
There's a pair of
lyin' eyes
And a set of keys
He says come be a
star
In the back seat
of my car
Oh but baby slow
down
You're goin' way
too far
Let me make it
clear
To you my dear”
Happy Birthday Shania Twain! You rock girl.
