We're missing Shania already

Feb 16 2004

By Neil Mckay, The Journal

Such is the popularity of US singer Shania Twain that another show has already been booked at Newcastle's MetroRadio Arena next month. And on Saturday night it was easy to see why; the lady has class. Songs such as Honey I'm Home, Don't Be Stupid (You Know I Love You) and That Don't Impress Me Much are now part of the national subconscious. Even people who don't know the singer must be aware of the songs from shopping centre tapes, car radios, pub juke boxes and the like. Story continues ADVERTISEMENT Backed by a slick band, she raced through a dynamic repertoire beginning with Man! I feel like a Woman! Shania used to be a country singer, but Saturday's performance was pure rock and roll. She signed autographs while in full voice and hauled a girl up from the audience for one number, where they performed an impressive duet. She even wore a Newcastle United top for the last few songs, to the approval of the audience. We left hoping to secure tickets for the next Arena show in March, so uplifting had the expoerience been.
