Beautiful! Faith Hill and Tony Bennett perform “The Way You Look Tonight” on CMT’s Big New Music Weekend. This song is now my new obsession – my cat already knows the words by heart. She’s not complaining, though. Huge Faith Hill fan.
I’d love, love, love to see Faith Hill put out an album filled with this type of music. Her vocals are made for it. Then again, her vocals are made for absolutely anything they’re in the mood to try. If you don’t believe me, ask my cat.
If you haven’t seen Country Strong yet, get yourself to the theater asap. This is one very, very special movie. The acting is outstanding and the soundtrack is nothing short of amazing. Tim McGraw was wonderful in this movie and more than held his own with the great Gwyneth Paltrow. He has become quite an actor and is now (get this) filming a movie with Denzel Washington.
Ironically, while Tim McGraw was working with Gwyneth Paltrow on Country Strong, his wife Faith Hill was working with Gwyneth’s husband, Chris Martin from Coldplay, writing songs. At least that’s the story. McGraw joked to Chelsea Handler, “My wife is a huge Coldplay fan, and they spent a lot of time writing songs. I don’t want to start any rumors or anything, but I ain’t heard any songs yet!”
As a music fanatic, I have a lot of different favorites. When someone asks who my favorite female singer, male singer, or group is – the answers often vary. Sometimes it depends on who I’ve been listening to that day. But, when it comes to my favorite female artists, five-time Grammy Award winner Faith Hill is always amongst the top 3 I name. There’s just something about her voice that makes everything in the world RIGHT. A lot of artists have talent, but some of them just have an extra something IT that sets them apart. Faith Hill, Whitney Houston, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, Tim McGraw, Creed, George Strait, Martina McBride, Kanye West, Shania Twain, Lady Antebellum, Daughtry, Rihanna, Jason Aldean, Gwen Stefani, Fergie, Christina Aguilera…. they’re just a few who don’t (or didn’t) just have IT, they define IT.
Beautiful Faith Hill is teaming up with the world’s leading flower delivery service, Teleflora, for the creation of “The Collection by Faith Hill.”
The line has been designed to reflect Faith’s impeccable style, taste, and artistry. It will be unveiled in Teleflora’s newest television commercial, which will debut during Super Bowl XLV on FOX on Sunday, February 6. The commercial will air during the second quarter – just a little head’s up for the rest of you Faith Hill fans!
Throughout the year, Faith will collaborate with Teleflora on “The Collection by Faith Hill,” adding to the assortment with a variety of elegant bouquets, including flowers for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and Christmas, as well as everyday occasions.
The commercial that’ll air during the Super Bowl is a Valentine’s Day spot staged in a recording studio. Faith Hill steps in to coach her sound tech through a Valentine’s Day dilemma. Faith’s co-star in the commercial will be “The Collection by Faith Hill” Valentine’s Day assortment – “The Valentine’s Bouquet.”
Looking forward to the commercial and can’t wait to bring the flowers into my home. Everything Faith Hill touches is gold, a la Midas. Her first perfume (Faith Hill) is probably the best perfume on the market. It’s my favorite and, if you’ve ever sampled the perfume, you’ll know why. There’s no reason to expect that her Teleflora line will be anything but exceptional.
Faith Hill wouldn’t have it any other way.
In the wonderful interview with Access Hollywood, Tim McGraw talks about the things that make him feel like he’s living a blessed life: His marriage to Faith Hill, his movies, co-stars like Sandra Bullock, and his new movie, Country Strong with Gwyneth Paltrow.

Billy Currington: : “mmmmmm…. ‘Magic Brownie’ just got dipped in some fresh cow juice. Better strap in. Who knows whats fixin’ to happen here”
Kellie Pickler: God is good.
Kellie Pickler: I think today I will skip through the clouds and slide down a rainbow. Maybe sing with a bee and chase a tornado.
If there’s ever been a more beautiful song, I can’t imagine what it’d be. Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s voices are pure magic, especially together.
Even if you don’t follow country music closely (and I can’t imagine anyone who doesn’t these days with Taylor Swift, Jason Aldean, Carrie Underwood, Kellie Pickler, Keith Urban, Big & Rich…), I know you’ve heard of the cowboy rock stars of Nashville, Big & Rich. The “rich” part of the equation is John Rich and he just might be the most out-spoken, opinionated, and blissfully talented writer in Country Music right now. Personally, I’ve been a big fan since he and “Big Kenny” strutted onto the country music map singing about saving horses and riding cowboys.
They made all of us sit up and say, “Whut? Whut?”
John Rich has a solo cd coming out, Son of a Preacher Man. The title cut is about his relationship with his own dad, a preacher man. In an interview with The Boot.com, John Rich told why the title song is so close to his heart: “Imagine being the most hardcore, rock ‘n’ roll, honkeytonk singer in Nashville … the wildest kid in town. But your dad is a fire and brimstone, Bible-banging preacher. He’s never been judgmental, but I’ve never recorded a song that offended him. I’ve played him songs that he’s said, ‘Nah, I’d rather you not say that,’ so I didn’t record them. That’s how much of an impact my dad has had on me.”
He told The Boot that his partner, Kenny, was on a Mission trip to Africa and that they will be touring together. He’s also certain there are more cds in Big & Rich’s future. And that’s news that follows under the category Great!
One of the talents that most impresses me about John Rich is his song writing abilities. He has written songs for Big & Rich (Lost in this Moment, Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy…), Gretchen Wilson (Redneck Woman, When I Think About Cheatin’, Here for the Party), Keith Anderson (Pickin’ Wildflowers) Cowboy Troy (If You Don’t Wanna Love Me, with Sarah Buxton), Faith Hill (Mississippi Girl, Sunshine and Summertime), Faith Hill & Tim McGraw (Like We Never Loved at All), Jason Aldean (Hicktown, Johnny Cash), Aaron Tippin, Martina McBride, Clay Walker, Shannon Brown (Corn Fed), James Otto, Jewel, and so on. I’m still researching songs that he has written or co-written and I honestly can’t keep up with them all.
It blows the mind.

Normally, when someone attempts a Faith Hill song on a singing competition, they’re minutes away from being toast. However, when an 18 year old girl named Amy Connolly auditioned for the British version of American Idol , The X Factor, she dared to tackle Faith. Amy sang a cover of the Faith Hill Song (There You’ll Be) and became the toast of the town in a good way.
Sweet voice. I can’t wait to hear what she does next. Thank goodness for You Tube!
