H&S Magazine's Best Artist Of The Week: LeAnn Rimes- Essentials- As a teenager, LeAnn Rimes made a name for herself in Nashville with showcases of her precocious interpretative skill, such as her breakthrough smash, “Blue.” As she matured, she added pop's synth-minded sonics to her knowledge of classic country, with songs like the heartbroken “How Do I Live” and the spunky “Can't Fight the Moonlight” paving the way for her Top 40 crossover. Even as she grew from Everybody's Sweetheart into pop-country royalty, Rimes' strength lay in her ability to pair forceful vocals with true-to-life lyrics.
