Dan, thanks. You're right. She's great! Keeping up my hopes that Texas will return from the darkness of Abbott, Paxton, Cruz, and return to the light of George Strait and Stevie Ray Vaughn and Willie Nelson. As well, of course as you recently pointed out, the Chicks! And politically, Beto and Ann Richards!

This song brings me back to my college days. I associate it with getting a copy of "Our Bodies,Ourselves" in my mailbox on campus! Thanks for the trip down memory lane....and it's time to revive this song's sentiment as loudly as possible!

My go to election song for women and those who love them is HELEN REDDY singing 🎶 “I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar, In Numbers Too Big To Ignore” ; I just go to YouTube and listen, follow the lyrics karaoke style and sing the house down. It’s that TIME! 💙💙💙

She's not a Texan - she's Canadian, and we proudly claim her as ours!

Absolutely she's a glorious Canadian. I just wanted to remind readers that Texas and Texans are much better than their current crop of venal politicians.

How about some Helen Reddy? I am woman! An oldie that speaks to me today.

Former Congresswomen Liz Cheney is stumping for Congressman Colin Allred to defeat Biden victory denier Ted Cruz for the Senate in 2024!

Cruz is remarkably disgusting and spineless

He’s a pig.

That got me. What else can be said about Shania Twain. Pure talent, great lyrics and what a performance. Great way to start a week and as another poster said this would be great as Kamala's intro song!!

I still believe that Mo Reb's song "Put a Woman in Charge" is a great song for Kamala Harris! You can find it on You Tube. It's really good!

Ah, Keb Mo - but yes, absolutely!

I embarrassed that I got his name wrong! It is Keb Mo not Mo Reb! That song should definitely be a campaign song for Kamala!

Not to worry. Truth be told, I’m a little dyslexic and sometimes produce some hilarious juxtapositioned word salads.

One of my favorite songs from the 90s. Great choice, Dan for this beautiful Sunday morning. Lyrics are unbelievable in this song. Adopted one of my mantras from this tune….” Girls need a break, forget I’m a lady”. So true. And so so so much fun. Love you Shania & Love you Dan.

That is one song I will sing loudly whenever it comes on the radio! It is energetic and makes me dance and laugh! Shania Twain is a great performer. I love her music! Thank you, Mr. Rather, for giving me another reason to smile today!

Thanks Mr. Rather. Shania Twain is my favorite female artist.

“Any Man Of Mine” is my favorite!

Wow! I have heard that song countless times and have never seen the video. What an artist!!

Expand full comment

Sounds like a great theme for VP HARRIS

I loved how the video riffed off of Robert Palmers Addicted to love one. She is phenomenal!

PS Could we please enjoy this Sunday smile without bringing politics into the conversation. A break once in a while is good for us and Dan always chooses great songs and artists. Thanks

Impeccable Musical Taste!! I'll be playing this and Singing it on the Mall During Kamala's Inauguration with the other 1 Million Women who will be there!!!

Mr. Rather, I lived in Las Vegas for 12 years - years ago. The hotels have changed substantially. I lived there when the Sands and Flamingo Hotels were the place to go, when Sammy Davis, Jr., could appear at a strip hotel as a headliner, but had to stay in North Las Vegas. (Probably the place MAGA would like to return us to.)

At any rate, notwithstanding the heat, what's to keep you from going to see Shania Twain? What a great video - thanks for sharing! She's inviting you to Vegas. Go!!!

That’s how Kamala Harris makes me feel; proud to be a woman. Here’s hoping that the power of a wonderful woman will unite our people and bring stability, reason, compassion, understanding and peace to the world. You go, girl!!!!!!
