There is no overestimating the historical power and influence of Shania Twain’s Come on Over. You can hear it in the music of Taylor Swift (all the way up through 1989, easily), as well as Carrie Underwood, Kelsea Ballerini, Carly Pearce, Kelly Clarkson, Maren Morris, latter day The Chicks, even Harry Styles. Its success—40 million copies sold and counting—freed up boundaries (for better or worse) for countless country acts, from Rascal Flatts to Dan + Shay, to be unashamed of going pop. The album’s production, by Twain’s now-ex husband Mutt Lange (who was previously best known for his work with AC/DC and Def Leppard), is an epoch in the country music timeline—much the way Chet Atkins’ Nashville Sound was. While some of those production flourishes sound a bit dated on the three-disc remaster (including domestic and international versions plus a grab bag of collaborations and remixes) of Come on Over, these are still killer songs that would tear it up on country and/or pop radio today. “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” packs an even bigger dose of serotonin. Every aspect—guitar, fiddle, vocals—of “Love Gets Me Every Time” sounds so crisp and clear on both the US version and its international compatriot, famously stripped of the hollering fiddle at the front of the mix. Freshened-up “You’re Still the One” glistens, the pedal steel sharp as ever against the gooey cloud of backing vocals. But want something different? There’s also a fun 1999 live duet with Elton John turning his twang up to 11, as well as several thumping dancefloor remixes and a largely superfluous version from Twain’s 2022 Las Vegas residency, with Coldplay’s Chris Martin on piano. There’s both the spirited and clicky original of “I’m Holdin’ On to Love (To Save My Life)” and a more down-home take with Alison Krauss. The bluegrass queen makes a second appearance on a duet of “From This Moment On,” from the Up! Close and Personal live album, offering a warmer, rounder take on the pristine original with Bryan White. A 1999 Miami concert collab on the song with Backstreet Boys puts everyone’s vocal acrobatics on display. “Honey, I’m Home,” always one of the most countrified tracks on the album, is slick as a whistle, and cowbell positively vibrates on “That Don’t Impress Me Much” (and the line “OK, so you’re Brad Pitt/ That don’t impress me much” still holds up). And while remastering highlights how cheesy Lange’s Eurovision-style production is on “Come On Over,” Twain just sounds terrific. Viva Shania. – Shelly Ridenour
