Everywhere (Tim McGraw album)
Everywhere is the fourth studio album of American country music artist Tim McGraw. It was released on June 3, 1997. It was his first release since his marriage to Faith Hill. Their collaboration on this album, "It's Your Love", was nominated for Best Country Collaboration With Vocals and Best Country Song at the 1998 Grammy Awards. This was Tim's first album to have a crossover-friendly country-pop sound, which was a departure from his earlier neotraditional country albums.

Singles released from this album include the number one Hot Country Songs hits "It's Your Love", "Everywhere", "Just to See You Smile" and "Where the Green Grass Grows", as well as the #2-peaking "One of These Days" (originally recorded by Marcus Hummon on his 1995 album All in Good Time) and "For a Little While". Both "It's Your Love" and "Just to See You Smile" were declared as number one country hits of the year by Billboard, for 1997 and 1998 respectively. "You Turn Me On" also entered the lower regions of the country charts from unsolicited airplay.
"You Just Get Better All the Time" was previously recorded by Tony Joe White on his 1983 album "Dangerous" and by James House on his 1990 album Hard Times for an Honest Man. "You Turn Me On" was later recorded as "Dumaflache" by Daryle Singletary on his compilation album "Now and Again".
