In part two of our series on Shania Twain, we take a look at the beginning of her career as a successful country musician. We look at life after the death of her parents and how she wanted to give up on singing, who saved her and brought her back, and the small steps she took to signing with a major label. And once she was on that label, how she took matters into her own hands to develop a style all her own.
In part one of our series on the best selling female country artist of all time, Shania Twain, we take a look at her life before she was reinventing what it meant to be a woman in country. Her childhood was less than stellar, having to deal with extreme poverty, physical and sexual abuse, and the death of her parents. All while trying to see if she could have a career in music.
In the conclusion of our series on big rockers Van Halen, we take a look at how the band dealt with David Lee Roth quitting the band, their time with the Red Rocker Sammy Hagar and how the relationship took a slow turn for the worst, their short stint with Gary Cherone, and everything else that happened leading up to the tragic death of Eddie Van Halen.
On this On In Five News, we take a look at the life of David Lee Roth after his time in Van Halen, before rejoining the group in the late 2000s. We see how a promising start quickly fell apart for the singer, and how no matter what he tried to do, it all failed for him. We look at how the reunion for David and Van Halen was much more inevitable for the singer than he originally implied, and just how much he was willing to try for fame.
In part two of our series on Van Halen, we take a look at the band after they finally reached fame. We see how David Lee Roth, Eddie and Alex Van Halen, and Michael Anthony handled the success they had worked so hard to achieve, and how the fame isn't always the dream people think it is. We see how they seemed to only do things right for so long, and what caused the rift that cause David Lee Roth to eventually go solo.
In this special edition episode of On In Five News, we take a look at the world of Eddie Van Halen and his many iconic guitars. We look at how his obsessive tinkering created the most iconic guitar of all time, and how he rode that wave into creating a multimillion dollar brand with his name on it.
