...country singer, but Hill has made the kind of crossover album you can imagine being plugged at the end of some teen-oriented WB drama such as Dawson's Creek or Roswell. Like Shania Twain, Hill loves showmanship: one of the up-tempo numbers on this album is called Bringing Out the Elvis. But while Twain often comes across as gimmicky, the songs on Hill's new album--though none aspire to great art--are tastefully rendered. Hill even serves up a romantic cover of a Bruce Springsteen song, If I Should Fall Behind. As you listen, it's hard...
Except for his name and party affiliation, Al Gore has now changed just about everything a struggling candidate can change: clothes, consultants, message, manner. But his campaign theme song--the cheesy tune that blares at every Gore 2000 event--still needs work.

McGraw and Hill are, right now, the prince and princess of country music. Oh, sure, sales-wise, Garth and Shania are still the king and queen, and yes, Kelly Willis' What I Deserve is, so far, the smartest, most consistently worthwhile country CD released this year--but if you're talking young, if you're talking sexy, spunky and--how cool is this?--married, McGraw, 32, and Hill, 31, are it. They are the Tom and Nicole of today's country music (fully clothed, of course). Hill's sunny third CD, Faith (Warner Bros.), has gone double platinum and spawned...
