There You'll Be is an international greatest hits album by country music artist Faith Hill. It was released on October 8, 2001, in Europe and Australia only following the success of her singles from her past two albums, Breathe (1999) and Faith (1998). The name of the album comes from the single "There You'll Be", which Hill recorded for the movie Pearl Harbor.
"There You'll Be" was released as the lead single on May 21, 2001, to country radio before being released throughout June 2001 in Europe. The song received critical acclaim, with praise being towards Hill's vocals. The song became her highest-peaking single internationally, peaking at number three in the United Kingdom and the top ten in 14 other countries. Remixed by English electronic duo Tin Tin Out, Hill's previously released single "Breathe" was reissued on October 1, 2001. "Breathe", in its initial release, was a moderate top forty hit in seven countries. The reissue did peak at number 36 on the UK Singles Chart.
Content There You'll Be consists of songs from Faith and Breathe, most of which are included in their "radio" or "pop" remixes. The compilation opens up with the title track, which was written by famed songwriter Diane Warren and recorded for the soundtrack of the 2001 Michael Bay film Pearl Harbor. "This Kiss", Hill's first crossover single from 1998, is followed after, included in its "radio version" which removes the country elements. "Breathe" is followed, with the version included on There You'll Be being remixed by Tin Tin Out. The next song included is "The Way You Love Me", which like "Breathe" was specifically remixed for this compilation by the UK-based dance producers Love to Infinity; the Australian version of There You'll Be includes the album version. "Let Me Let Go" is next, with the version included being the pop remix used for the film Message in a Bottle. The Erma Franklin cover "Piece of My Heart", which Hill made a country number one in 1994, is included in its international pop remix. Three non-singles from Faith are included: "You Give Me Love", "My Wild Frontier", and "Love Will Always Win"; the latter was the title of the international edition of the album and was originally supposed to appear before being cut from the project and later being recorded by Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood. The top forty country song "There Will Come a Day" from Breathe was also included. A cover of the Amy Grant song "Somewhere Down the Road" was recorded specifically for the compilation. The classic cover "Over the Rainbow" was recorded. The final song included on the standard edition of There You'll Be is the pop version of "Breathe". The album track "If I Should Fall Behind", which was included on Breathe, was exclusively on the Australian edition.
