ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nashville was like walking into Pleasentville....lol



Nice use of songs from her first album. She totally relates to the rugged country she grew up with. Willie Nelson, and Dolly Parton. She walked in, and no one like that was there, and she was disappointed. Shania knew from that point, that her "edge" would not be accepted.


She hated scheduled writing sessions...drove her nuts. She also thinks she probably offended some people, since she spoke out against the system of songwriting. She says the first album was a "NASHVILLE RECORD".

Her image for the first video was all hers. She put her attitude into it. It was risque for Nashville...showing her midriff. She had support from Mercury to release that video, at the time..it was very "risky" to do something like that.

-------
Shania felt so grateful that Mutt loved her ideas, he acted like she expected Nashville to react to her songs. Shania seemed to choke up a bit, when she said that her and Mutt "went on to make some great music together".

Okay... ainahs, anything I missed or you picked up that I didn't?
