It would be cool if she recorded some of these updated versions of the classic songs. Most of them have different endings, and a completely different overall sound then they do on the albums, even from previous live shows. She does have a more soulful voice now, more like it used to be on Shania Twain, and The Woman In Me would be the closest comparison. Rock This Country done acoustically around the campfire was awesome!!!

Up! was closer to the Superbowl version than anything on the albums. Outta Here was not quite the dance version from Top of the Pops, but more with a rock than pop edge to it. The big finale Man I feel like a woman was completely over the top!! The rock intro the band does to it before the familiar opening riff was incredible along with the thunder, lightening and fire and light show that accompanied it.

From this moment's arrangement was closest to the solo version. It was so cool when Shania ends the song and descends into the stage under the "snow".


The intro into YSTO is a forest, then a forest fire with the black horse trapped, running through the flames, the fire is replaced with snow, the trees turn white, and so does the horse. The burning forest symbolizes renewal and Shania comes out on a white horse. She dismounts and starts to sing, the horse follows her around like a puppy dog. After YSTO, the stage transforms into a snow shower in the forest, and sheets on the stage floor act as snow drifts that Shania walks through.
