Data Insight

Everywhere is one of Tim McGraw's defining albums, and it produced four No. 1 country singles without a single writing credit for him. The centerpiece, 'It's Your Love,' is a duet with his wife Faith Hill written by Stephony Smith, and it dominated radio in 1997. McGraw took a co-production credit here alongside Byron Gallimore and James Stroud, a first step toward more studio control, but the songs still came entirely from outside writers. It went 5x Platinum.
