Tommy, you seem to be knowledgeable on this sort of subject. Since Shania is releasing her album in the fall, which has always been the best time to release an album for sales, what type of sales do you think Shania will get the first week. Given she won't get 800,000 like she did with Up!, what do you think realistically will happen? Are you aware of any releases on country that could be a big threat for that week?
Based on this side-by-side, I would say the "MIFLAW" outfit Shania is wearing in her "LATGG" video is a recreation of the one she wore in 1999.
To me the corset, skirt, gloves and necklace look the same. The corset sits a little bit looser but looks quite the same. The top hat is different and may be the shirt is new as well.
The outfit in "LATGG" looks like it has more of a design on the front than the one in "MIFLAW".
I guess it has the same amount of design. It's just the case of light and amount of postproduction. Because look at the pictures from the set:
You can see the stripes in the right picture. And also the pic from the exhibition in Nashville:
And finally two captures where it is obvious that the corset isn't plain:
There are clearly clasps (or whatever their correct title is) in the middle and two stripes on the sides from them. But in MIFLAW they also made her push-up effect so I believe there is something else underneath it or Marc Bower fixed it on her to make that form.

Right now, Chase Rice has the only other Country release on September 29. So he definitely won't be a threat. Toby Keith is releasing an album on Sep. 8 followed by Big & Rich on the 15th. As far as Shania's first-week sales, it's tough to say since she's been gone so long. Maybe 60,000-75,000. Maybe!

That is not mutt!!! lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol First of all it looks nothing like Mutt 😲 Secondly she would not be so vindictive to use his pic in a video. She has a son with Mutt so why embarrass his father many years after the damn divorce. Use your brain people!!!! Also that guy in the pic has a huge head lol anyway anyone with any vision at all couid see There is no resemblance at all.
"Yet we're left wondering a little bit here: Twain's director Matthew Cullen hasn't picked some generic boyfriend to dump out of a picture frame with the 51-year-old singer. Nope, when the guy who blew off our heroine disappears from that snapshot ... it's actually a picture of Twain's real-life ex, record producer-songwriter Robert John "Mutt" Lange," - the source: http://www.today.com/popculture/shania-twain-still-feels-woman-new-life-s-about-get-t114387

Pardon my mistake. I found the face features similar but looking through google pictures as JL-R had advised me to do I started having doubts too. It doesn't seem to be indeed Mutt. Althought it is a clear reference to him. Good job of those people who did that.
I don't understand whats happenig with shania on country radio... She is the most famous country artist of all time all around the globe. Thanks to her so many people is listening to country music...
I don't know if it's an official video, but I found this on Casa Twain Facebook page. Great video
Thanks for sharing! No it is not official, as it says at the beginning "by Case Twain" which is a Shania fan site. But it is very well done and almost does look official.
It goes to show that Country Radio is a joke. They have always boycotted her music and made thier best efforts to avoid playing her songs. The video is hugely successful and fans have been turned on to this song. Country radio can keep playing the same 10 songs over and over again. In the meantime, Shania's songs and videos and album sales will do well on thier own. No one needs radio anymore, its 2017.
Just like the old times, Shania is being ignored and for sure in the end of the day, Shania will soar and make her own way. Social Media is the new medium and it really showed how her LATGG music video went viral on Twitter and YouTube the moment it has been released.
I do think that American culture will never change because elsewhere Shania is an icon while American Country radio still sticks to their guns, bibles, and inbreeding as a way of life while Shania's message about life, liberty, love and good vibes overshadow the darkness and backward thinking of our society. When Trump got into office it ruins the Nation and Shania is trying to tell the world it is ok to heal, it is ok to take the time to yourself and that life will get better. Even as a gay man her message, her vibes and her acceptance of my community makes her an icon in our community right next to Reba, Dolly, and Swift. When you become an icon in the gay community you have made it! Shania has always been on message about love trumping hate while this single and album will allow her fans to be welcomed in her healing process and her world. When you have "drag queens" performing your songs in my clubs and festivals. You must be doing something right! Do you see any Gretchen Wilson, Martina McBride, Melissa Lambert, Faith Hill drag queens?IF you do then that is good. Which is being inclusive on her part but country radio still is an exclusive voice for a Steve Bannon nation. It's ok to be God fearing these days and its ok to heal from the damage of hate, jealousy, and wrong doing. I just know that country radio needs to wake up because when "Girl Crush" came it was an iconic song for my community and it showed progress and movement. When you go to a Trump rally all you "think" are the old ways of country radio and not the new ways of country radio. I am sorry I am being pc or no pc about this but it seems we need Shania's music, message and all things Shania to break down these doors, open these windows and to again wake up the weirdness our culture has become. Notice Faith/Tim released a country song and is touring. Both are doing pretty darn good because they follow the rules. While our girl, our icon, our diva and our classy lady break the rules, breaks the glass ceiling for females and my community. I swear when need to do some grassroots efforts as fans to seriously take over the charts, the radio and this new media called social media! Don't get me wrong my former current favorite country song was "humble and kind." I cry sometimes when I get it because it expresses the human touch which Shania's new anthem and song expresses the human touch and how to healing makes us "stronger together" I am just posting this to break down the doors as a fan to seriously get the conversation going to do a big epic massive over take of the airwaves and charts. Life is about to get good for all us and if America's country radio keeps swinging with their eyes closed on September 29th "NOW" will again break records and break the mold. We need to be there once again for girl like she is counting on us to be there for her. She is counting on us to hopefully accept her new anthem, vibes, music and to take the journey lets do it together and make her shine! We can do this yes we can yes we did and yes we will! So start your social media and word of mouth. We are going to rock this country and world!
Let's vote for Shania's LATGG music video on CMT Hot 20 Countdown. Click the link and the list is in alphabetical order. Look for artist starts with "S" and you can see Shania there.
When "Summer of Shania" banners appeared in NYC, she permormed on Today show. Then they were in London and she visited London for some interviews. Then it was Toronto and she made some appearances there. I guess it's just her promo campaign has arrived in Las Vegas. Maybe she's giving some interviews there. To Robin Leach, maybe.
I hope it will get released half August the latest otherwise the lyrics "summer's here bring it on" don't really make sense anymore.. Because I don't really consider September as summer anymore, but we'll see...
"LATGG" is up at Adult Contemporary radio airplay to #24 she's climbing quite steadily. Should be top 20 at the end of the week at this rate, so hopefully the song will debut on the official Billboard AC chart next week.

Tommy, do you think Shania's team will push SWMEC on country radio? If so, how far do you think it'll go? Do you think it'll be more appealing than LATGG?
The LATGG has almost reached 1.9 million views in 1 week. Not bad at all.
I'm glad the song is climbing slowly but steadily on both AC radio and Canadian Country Chart. It won't be a #1 but a Top20 for sure.
Yes, I agree. There will be another promo single, even if I don't think it'll be "We Got Something They Don't", maybe "I'm Alright", "Soldier" or "Roll Me On The River". Those are the songs she keeps on talking about, so they will be used as promo singles or official ones.
I guess it'll be released by the time she'll perform in New York City on August 28th, and then in September she'll drop "Swingin'" as second official single.
LATGG is doing something on the charts, so maybe her label wants to give the song a chance to climb as higher as possible, especially as the video is doing so great.
BILLBOARD UPDATE (week of July 15): After debuting at No. 33 last week on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Top 50 chart, "Life's About To Get Good" falls off this week's chart. The song also falls off the Billboard Country Digital Song Sales chart after debuting at No. 17 last week.
On the Billboard Canadian charts, "Life's About To Get Good" climbs 11 spots to No. 38 in its second week on the Canada Country chart. The song falls off the Canadian Hot 100 chart after debuting at No. 70 last week, and also falls off the Canadian Digital Song Sales chart after debuting at No. 16 last week.
BILLBOARD UPDATE (week of July 22):On the Billboard Canadian charts, "Life's About To Get Good" climbs 1 spot to No. 37 in its third week on the Canada Country chart.
BILLBOARD UPDATE (week of July 29):On the Billboard Canadian charts, "Life's About To Get Good" climbs 6 spots to No. 31 in its fourth week on the Canada Country chart.

BILLBOARD UPDATE (week of August 12):On the Billboard Canadian charts, "Life's About To Get Good" climbs 2 spots to No. 26 in its sixth week on the Canada Country chart. ***Meanwhile, "LATGG" continues to do well on Adult Contemporary radio stations in the U.S..
