Cry (Faith Hill album)

Cry is the fifth studio album by American country music singer Faith Hill. It was released October 15, 2002, via Warner Bros. Nashville. The album was Hill's attempt at expanding her crossover appeal following the success of singles like "Breathe", "The Way You Love Me", and "There You'll Be". Hill co-produced the album along with Marti Frederiksen, Byron Gallimore, and Dann Huff.

The lead single, "Cry", peaked at number 12 in the US, and charted internationally. "One" was not released to country radio but peaked at number 7 on the adult contemporary charts. "When the Lights Go Down" and "You're Still Here" were released to country radio. "Baby You Belong" was exclusively released to Japan for the 2002 Disney film Lilo & Stitch.

Upon release, Cry was met with mixed reviews, with critics divided over Hill's focus on pop and R&B influences while largely abandoning the country sound of her previous albums. Despite that though, the album sold over 472,000 copies in its first week in the US and topped both the Billboard 200 and Top Country Albums charts. The album went on to sell 4 million copies worldwide and has been certified 2× Platinum by the RIAA. Hill has defended the polarizing creative direction of Cry, telling Billboard that "it was definitely a different record," but that she is still "so proud of [the album]." Cry was ranked at number 179 on the Billboard Top 200 albums of the 2000s decade. At the 46th Annual Grammy Awards, it was nominated for Best Country Album, and won the Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance for its title track, "Cry".
