In our next installment of COVID-19-related Retro Videos of the Week, I give you Faith Hill's massive crossover hit from 1999, "Breathe." The song not only spent six weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, but it also went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. On top of that, it was the #1 song on the Billboard Year End chart for 2000, becoming only the second song that topped the year-end chart without having been #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Since I know you're wondering, the first was Sam the Sham and The Pharoahs' 1965 hit "Wooly Bully," which also only went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Oddly enough, a year after Faith Hill did it, Lifehouse became the third act to do it with "Hanging By a Moment" (which also peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100).
But enough with the history lesson. I sincerely hope you all heed Faith Hill's advice and can juuuust breeeeaaathhe. And if you're out in public, please wear a mask while doing so.
