"How Do I Live" is a song written by Diane Warren. It was originally performed by American singer and actress LeAnn Rimes and was the first single from her second studio album, You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs (1997). [3] It also appeared on international editions of her follow-up album Sittin' on Top of the World (1998). [4] [5] A second version was performed by American singer Trisha Yearwood, which was featured in the film Con Air . Both versions were released to radio on May 23, 1997.

Contents

In the US, Rimes's version peaked at No. 2 for five non-consecutive weeks in late 1997 and early 1998. It set a number of records on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2014, Billboard listed the song as the No. 1 song of the 1990s, despite never reaching the position on the weekly tally. It ranks at No. 6 on Billboard's All Time Top 100, the only single on the top 10 of this list not peaking at No. 1. [6] It has been certified 4× Platinum by the RIAA for shipments of 4 million copies in the United States. [7]

Despite only peaking as high as No. 7 in the UK Singles Chart, [8] Rimes's version of "How Do I Live" spent 34 weeks on the chart, ending up as the 6th best selling single of 1998, outsold only by five of the year's number one singles. As of August 2014, the song has sold 710,000 copies in the UK. [9]

Background

Diane Warren wrote "How Do I Live" for consideration for the 1997 action blockbuster Con Air soundtrack. Walt Disney Pictures, the company behind the Touchstone Pictures label, requested that Rimes record the song. After hearing Rimes's recording, Disney executives decided that it lacked the maturity that they were looking for. [10] The company then turned to Trisha Yearwood to record a version of the song. According to Yearwood, she was unaware of Rimes's recording prior to being approached by Touchstone Pictures to record the song. [11]

Yearwood's version, which utilized a more throaty, country-western vibe, [12] appeared in the film. When Rimes's record label, Curb Records, heard of the release, they were reluctant to release her version until Warren called label founder Mike Curb and urged him to release the recording as a single; her version was then quickly released to mainstream pop radio on the same day as Yearwood's rendition. [13] [14] Neither version of the song was included on the soundtrack album for the film (which consists of the score by Trevor Rabin and Mark Mancina). [15] Yearwood's version reached number two on the U.S. country singles chart and was internationally successful. It appeared on her first compilation album (Songbook) A Collection of Hits (1997). The album certified quadruple-platinum in the United States.

Rimes's version was released as the first single from her album You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs (1997). It was included on her compilations Greatest Hits (2003), The Best of LeAnn Rimes (2004), and All-Time Greatest Hits (2015). The CD single was later reissued with the extended version of the song being replaced by Mr. Mig's Dance Radio Edit, which would later be featured on The Best of LeAnn Rimes: Remixed (2004); the later release Dance Like You Don't Give A...Greatest Hits Remixes (2014) featured a new remix by Cahill. "How Do I Live" was later covered by F.I.R.; their version featured new vocals by Rimes and was included their third album Flight Tribe (2006). [16]

Critical reception

Rimes version

Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as a "straight-ahead pop ballad" and noted that Rimes "has a field day with this beautiful, richly soulful Diane Warren composition, giving it a youthful exuberance and wide-eyed innocence that will melt even the coldest heart." He also added that Rimes "is so vigorously courting the pop world with this single" and that she "has offered a tune that makes the most of her formidable pipes and leaves listeners salivating for more." [17] Alanna Nash from Entertainment Weekly called it a "lush version". [18] British magazine Music Week gave the song four out of five. [19] In 2019, Stacker placed Rimes's version of the song at No. 1 in their list of "Best 90s pop songs", noting it as a "classic break-up tune". [20] David Sinclair from The Times viewed it as a "sludgy ballad by the 14-year-old prodigy." [21]

Yearwood version

Regarding Yearwood's version, Flick stated that Yearwood "is a vocalist with the depth and intensity to convey the love and longing in the lyric." He added that the production by the singer with Tony Brown "is lush and textured, but it is her vocal that is this single's centerpiece. It's full of passion and subtle nuances." [17] Alanna Nash from Entertainment Weekly described Yearwood's version as a "countrier rendition". She noted, "When Yearwood sings, ”If you ever leave/Baby, you would take away everything good in my life,” her voice throbs with adult emotion." [18] A reviewer from Music Week viewed it as a "poppier" version. [19]

Chart performance

Both the Rimes and the Yearwood versions debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100 on the week ending June 14, 1997. Rimes's version was noted for its extreme longevity, spending a record-breaking 69 weeks on the chart, with 62 of those weeks being in the top 40, 32 weeks in the top ten and 25 in the top five, all records at the time. Such was the run in the top five for Rimes that, despite not peaking at No. 1 and instead spending five non-consecutive weeks at No. 2, it competed directly with two songs by R&B singer Usher, "You Make Me Wanna..." and "Nice & Slow", which were released five months apart from each other. Rimes's version also performed well on other component charts, most notably spending 11 weeks atop the Adult Contemporary chart. [22]

Despite this success, Trisha Yearwood's version was most successful on country radio. Although Yearwood's version was moving quickly up the pop charts, getting as high as No. 23, MCA refused to issue further copies of the single, afraid of cannibalizing album sales.[ citation needed ] As a result, the limited press run of 300,000 sold out quickly, and the single was off the Hot 100 after 12 weeks. However, on country radio it became much more commercially successful, climbing all the way to No. 2, where it peaked for one week, outpacing the peak of 43 set by the recording Rimes released.

Consequently, Yearwood's version was among the top 20 biggest country singles of 1997, while Rimes's version was the ninth and fifth best- charting singles on the pop charts for the years 1997 and 1998, respectively. Rimes's version was later ranked at No. 4 on Billboard's All Time Top 100 in 2008. It was ranked by Billboard as the 12th-most-successful single of the 1990s at the end of the decade in 1999. 15 years later, after retabulations, it was re-ranked as the second best-charting single that was released during the decade, [23] and the best-charting single of the 1990s proper. [24] In a retrospective compilation in conjunction with SiriusXM from 2019, Billboard ranked "How Do I Live" second on their list of top performing songs of the decade. [23]

Internationally, the singles also had varied success, with Rimes's version typically outperforming Yearwood's. In the UK, Rimes's version peaked at No. 7, spending 30 weeks on the UK Top 40 singles chart and ranking as the sixth-highest-selling single on the UK year-end chart for 1998, [9] while Yearwood's version landed at No. 66. Rimes's version additionally charted across central Europe, reaching the top 5 in the Netherlands and Norway, the top 20 in Denmark, and the top 40 in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Conversely, in both Ireland and Australia as well as on the Canadian country charts, Yearwood's version managed to outpace Rimes's peak at Nos. 2, 3, and 1 to Rimes's 14, 17, and 60, respectively. Consequently, Yearwood's version was ranked in the top 20 and 30 for the 1997 Australian and Canadian country year-end charts, respectively.

Accolades

In 1998, for the first time in history, the Grammy Awards nominated two artists for the same song in the same category. Directly following Rimes's performance of the song, Yearwood won the Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. [25] Yearwood also performed the song at the Country Music Association for which she won the 1997 award for Female Vocalist of the Year. [26] Yearwood also won the 1997 Academy of Country Music Award for Top Female Vocalist. [27]

The song also was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song, but lost to "My Heart Will Go On" from the film Titanic. [28] Yearwood performed the song at the award ceremony. Ironically, the song received a contradictory nomination for the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Original Song, but "lost" again to the soundtrack for The Postman. [29]
