 "The Hits" $18.98 I'm not a country music fan, but on a recent airline trip, I heard this album on the Delta system, and loved it. Had to have it. A lot of good music. You don't have to be a country fan to love this one!  It Matters to Me $11.98 This is easily her best album before she decided to go into Pop/Country territory! This album produced 5 hits-included are the classic hits Someone Else's Dream(love the lyrics to this)Let's Go To Vegas(really catchy uptempo),You Can't Lose Me,and the beautiful ballads It Matters To Me and I Can't Do That Anymore(which Alan Jackson wrote).All excellent songs! Other gems include the touching domestic abuse song A Man's Home Is His Castle and the feisty uptempo You Will Be Mine. Produced by Scott Hendricks and Faith-her ex boyfriend as she went on to marry Tim McGraw.This album has a great collection of traditional 90's country music that you will still enjoy today! I can't recommend this little gem enough....  Joy To The World $18.98 Although I adore Christmas music, there are few cds that have moved me enough to purchase them simply because there is such a variety on the radio that I just tend to keep that going around the holidays. After hearing this cd at a friend's house, however, I made the exception. There is something about Faith Hill's amazing voice coupled with such moving songs that make this one you just won't grow tired of, in my opinion. Better yet, it bridges the age gaps of who will enjoy hearing it. My 6 year old niece loved it as much as my "senior parents" and as much as my 27 year old friend who bought it does too! It's just such a strong mix of music and vocals. That said, our family has a personal joke that says as much about Faith Hill's personal beauty aside from her musical beauty. My father owns a restaurant at a resort location. He was working the front one day when someone quite striking came in and, after her group had eaten and she came up to pay her bill, he made some comment along the lines of "I'm sure you get told often how strikingly beautiful you are. You could be on t.v." She simply smiled and said "thank you" as she paid her check. As she left the employees said "Did you know that was Faith Hill?" Which was confirmed in the paper the next day... ...He did not... (and that alone cracks me up since he has several of her c.d.s) To this day we joke that dad tried to hit on Faith Hill without realizing it. However, I commend her charm in saying "thank you", paying her bill, and not saying "do you know who I am?" or "I am on t.v. all the time! I'm Faith Hill!" It's made me like her even more since that happened. Because they also get plenty that do say exactly who they are at bill paying time in there! :-) But that still does not bias my opinion musically...there is no bias needed. Faith Hill hits the mark on great music on this one... How she sings, afterall, has little to do with how she acts. Fortunately, both are sweet. |
