Australian edition features four bonus tracks.

With her third album, FAITH, Faith Hill tasted pop crossover success--and she evidently liked the taste. BREATHE, Hill's fourth release, takes the pop/country stylings of FAITH to the next level. It's an appealing collection of pop, gospel, R&B, rock, and ballads, with just a bit of country thrown in. The production, featuring Hill's big voice surrounded by booming drums and screaming guitars, is so slick you could skate on it.

Love is the subject of nearly every song, from the exuberant "I Got My Baby," to the soulful "Love Is a Sweet Thing," to the cutesy "The Way You Love Me," with its Beatlesque backing vocals. But while Hill can obviously handle a wide range of material, she sounds best on the quieter, country-flavored numbers, like the title track, the lovely "It Will Be Me," and a haunting, vaguely Latin-flavored reworking of Bruce Springsteen's "If I Should Fall Behind." The most emotional track is "Let's Make Love," a full-fledged duet with Hill's husband Tim McGraw. Because McGraw's voice is unmistakably country, Hill adopts a similar sound to match him. And because you know they've lived the lyrics, the song--about reconnecting emotionally and physically with your mate--comes across as undeniably real.

What the critics say...

Entertainment Weekly (11/19/99, p.144) - "...brings a winning exuberance to her performances....remarkably close to autobiography....it plays like scenes from some fantasy movie..." - Rating: B-
Q (5/00, pp.108,110) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Accomplished widescreen pop....the title track swoons and there's an honest stab at Springsteen's 'If I Should Fall Behind'..."
Country Music People (1/00, pp.23-4) - 3.5 out of 5 - "...a completely over the top melange of wailing vocals....tough and abrasive....the album closes in truly rousing, exhilarating fashion..."
