0601.04-Shania points out
Nashville hypocrisy:
In
an article from 1999, Shania pointed out the hypocrisy that is even today
rampant on Music Row, and on country radio. Twain is
well-versed in country music history and she bridles at the idea of
Nashville insiders believing her pop sensibilities and foreign passport
mean she's ignorant about country music. "They're out there trying to find
artists who are "true" and "real" and they're getting singers who just got
out of college and have probably never listened to a Tammy Wynette album
in their life," she says. "But because they're from, oh, Texas or
something, they have a license to be considered a country artiste and I
don't. I don't get it." To read the rest of the article, you can
check the
STNAOFC board.

Well
here is one of those "silly and stupid things" Nashville had Shania do in
1992, as she worked on her first album. Shania, and Toby made an
appearance in Tracy Lawrence's video "My Second Home". You can view the
video online
here. I made some
video captures as well.
