Faith Hill - Cry
Her marriage to country singer Tim McGraw, with whom she has three daughters, is the stuff of People magazine. Less well known is the fact that the superstar’s first husband, from whom she took her name, was Canada’s sentimental crooner Dan Hill, who she met at a Nashville publishing company while answering phones. Musically, there’s not much to say about Faith—she’s Shania without the sass. Judging from its title track, a frothy, toe-tapping weeper, her new album continues in the pop-juggernaut direction of 1999’s mega-selling Breathe.
