Country icon Shania Twain has revealed why her voice sounds different. The 60-year-old Canadian told the Associated Press that her voice is huskier on her new album Little Miss Twain than fans will remember from her earlier career. “It is a result of the implants that I had put in to the larynx, so into the voice box,” she said. So I knew that if they could get the closure symmetrical but with these implants, my vocal cords would be able to sing no problem. So I’m grateful and I’m really happy to sing with this rasp.
