In Honor of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s 20th Anniversary, We Remember 5 of Their Greatest Duets

Congratulations to Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, who are celebrating 20 years of wedded bliss today (Oct. 6).

The genetically blessed couple married on Oct. 6, 1996, in Rayville, La., and have since collaborated on a few hit songs, toured together several times and produced three beautiful daughters, Gracie (19), Maggie (18) and Audrey (14).

Considered country music’s royal couple, Tim and Faith saw sparks ignite when Faith was the opening act on Tim’s appropriately named Spontaneous Combustion Tour in 1996. More than 20 years later, the sparks are still flying. In an Instagram post on Faith’s birthday this year, Tim said: “Happy Birthday to this crazy, talented, beautiful woman. I’m am so lucky to be married to and be with her for the rest of my life. The best mother and role model that my 3 daughters could possibly have. She is extraordinary.”  Cue the collective Awwwww! They’ve still got it.

In honor of the happy couple, NCD put together five of our favorite Tim and Faith duets. Check them out and watch as the lovebirds melt our hearts. Happy 20th anniversary Tim and Faith!

1. “It’s Your Love”

Who could forget the first time Tim and Faith collaborated on “It’s Your Love” in 1997? Two of country’s hottest acts were recently wed and Faith was pregnant with their first child. Fans went crazy as the stunning couple professed their love to each other on this No. 1 hit—written by Stephony Smith—that fit so well for the power couple.

2. “Just To Hear You Say That You Love Me”

Released in 1998 and the second single from Faith Hill’s multi-platinum album, Faith, “Just to Hear You Say That You Love Me” had every country fan’s favorite couple reprising their love in the “It’s Your Love” video. The video, filmed entirely of close-ups due to the fact that Faith was pregnant, is shot in black and white to give their love a more intimate feel. Because everything looks sexier in black and white.

3. “Let’s Make Love”

If there was ever any doubt that Tim and Faith had scorching HOT chemistry, this video puts that argument to rest. Filmed in Paris France, “Let’s Make Love” gives you a voyeuristic peek into this super couple’s sexy marriage. The single and music video were released in 2000—only four short years after their wedding. In the video Tim and Faith show the world they want each other and they aren’t afraid to let us know that they want to make love.

4. “Like We Never Loved At All”

2005 was every fans worst nightmare: the breakup of Tim and Faith. Luckily for us, the superstar couple was only acting. Something they both had a taste of at this point in their careers—Faith with Stepford Wives and Tim with Friday Night Lights. The pain, the hurt, the heartbreak seemed so real in this video set in the 1970s—something we never want to see these two go through, but it sure was fun to watch them play the part.

5. “Meanwhile Back At Mama’s”

Their most recent collaboration, “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s,” was released in 2014 after 18 years of marriage. The song and video renewed our faith (pun intended) in the happy couple’s lasting love. This husband and wife team continues to make us long for simpler times and a marriage like theirs.
