To CMT, or should I say MTV, and to all who believe Shania Twain is Country. Let me educate you.

I spent hours on Youtube searching for Country music by Shania Twain. I found 10. You can find them here... cfm-promotions.freeforums.net/thread/13/shanias-country Obviously, not all of her songs are on Youtube, but it's a good sampling. Her biggest hits are there. Only 10 Country songs does not make her a lifetime Country artist. The other artists I shared above have a lifetime of Country music. In the case of Amber Digby, not a long life, although she has been around almost as long as Patsy Cline. These others have been around at least 50 years singing Country the whole time.
I once asked a friend of mine if he thought Shania Twain was Country. He said, "with her looks she doesn't have to be." Shania Twain is a very beautiful woman, and there are men who are attracted to her for that, not her music. They probably bought her music so they could see her picture. If she looked like Phyllis Diller, she would never get this award you are planning to giving her.
