Shania Twain
sheds her country-cookie image to bemoan the fate of the world's
poor children on this gospel-ish power ballad (not to be
confused with the Billie Holiday standard). While her sentiments
are pretty naive, her pipes sound plenty experienced. With a
vocal boost from members of Take 6, Twain whispers and shouts on "God Bless the Child"
with enough passion to make us temporarily forget her pinup
looks.
