Man! I Feel Like A Woman – Shania Twain (who also, I believe, used one in her album Up!)
Edit: Christ. Yes, the album is not only entitled thusly, but contains the tracks [deep breath]:
Up!
I'm Gonna Getcha Good!
Nah!
(Wanna Get To Know You) That Good!
Ka-Ching!
Thank You Baby! (For Makin' Someday Come So Soon)
Waiter! Bring Me Water!
What A Way To Wanna Be!
AND
I'm Not In The Mood (To Say No)!
...a staggering total of 10 exclamation marks across 9 song titles, making this possibly the most excitable album in music history.
The sheer variation – positive single-word emphasis, negative single-word emphasis, hyphenated single-word, multi-worded with exclamation at end, multi-worded with exclamation after first word, exclamation after first word and at end, exclamation in middle before bracketed subtitle, exclamation at end after bracketed subtitle (and specifically outside the brackets) – is a remarkable thing in and of itself.
The album cover, meanwhile, turns the U into a stylised smiley face, one that makes it look quite a bit like it's got an unlikely heävy mėtal ümlaut: Üp!
Further edit: I'd overlooked that Man! I Feel Like A Woman! is in fact a twofer. The woman had form, it seems.
