String Quartet Tribute to Shania Twain captures the inherent warmth in the country-pop superstar's music, making it an understandably curious, yet fun and unique pickup for her legions of fans.

Mutt Lange. It includes ballads like "Woman in Me [Needs the Man in You]" and "From This Moment On." But what really sizzles here are the upbeat numbers, stuff like "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under," "Man! I Feel Like a Woman," and "That Don't Impress Me Much," which find the violin replicating
