For LeAnn Rimes, 1999 was a year of many exciting firsts. The Grammy, CMA Billboard and Academy Of Country Music award winner embarked on a number of dynamic new projects that will carry her into the millennium.
Of course, 1999 was the follow-up to the last years, where LeAnn established herself as one of the leading singers of the 1990’s. Blue, her 1996 debut Curb album, is closing in on the seven million mark, and her subsequent album, You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs, also multi-platinum, debuted at #1 on three Billboard charts: Pop, Country and Contemporary Christian. It marks the first time ever that honor has been achieved by a Country Music artist. The Early Years: Unchained Melody, a compilation album of LeAnn’s early work was released in early 1997 and sold multi-platinum. To top off 1997, LeAnn had a #1 pop single with How Do I Live, which currently holds the Billboard chart record of 69 consecutive weeks at #1, and received Special Hot 100 award.
In 1998 LeAnn again staked out a new musical territory with the release of Sitting On Top Of The World. The CD featured the hit single Commitment, as well as Looking Through Your Eyes, a ballad included in the animated motion picture, Quest for Camelot. The album also included LeAnn’s moving version of the Prince anthem Purple Rain.
At 11, LeAnn recorded her first album, All That, produced by Wilbur Rimes and released on the independent label Nor Va Jak. The album featured a version of Blue. Through the buzz created by that album, sold locally in Dallas, LeAnn garnered the attention of Curb Records and soon recorded and released the Blue album.
The rest they say is history. With all that she has achieved, LeAnn has a realistic view. “I don’t let it all go to my head,” she comments. “It could all disappear overnight. So I keep reminding myself of that and how hard I’ve worked to get here.”
