While we ruin ourselves in VIP packages at the prospect of not recognizing Madonna behind her umpteenth facelift, another return is certainly worth the detour. If Canadian-born superstar Shania Twain happens to turn into a glam-rock singer for the music video for Waking Up Dreaming, his sixth album is no less authentically a victory against fate. Freeing himself from his Svengali “Mutt” Lange, overcoming Lyme disease, that justifies Queen of Me : the singer belongs to herself more than ever. The attitude is the same as in the days of Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under ? (in 1995!), but with a surplus of joy that makes you perky: GiddyUp!, a rallying cry, will fill the dance floors of America’s saloons. Shania could be Taylor Swift’s big sister in the never-ending fight for self-respect. In Not Just a Girlwhich is also the title of the Netflix documentary dedicated to Twain last year, the points are on the I. And the fist is raised.
