"Let Me Let Go" is a song written by Steve Diamond and Dennis Morgan and recorded by American country music singer Faith Hill. It was released on September 14, 1998, as the third single from Hill's third studio album, Faith (1998). The song features background vocals from Vince Gill. At the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards, it received a nomination for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.
History
"Let Me Let Go" was also remixed into a pop version and used as the soundtrack for the movie Message in a Bottle. The remix was also added to the international version of her album Faith titled Love Will Always Win and the 2001 compilation album There You'll Be. The song was nominated for a Grammy for Best Female Country Vocal Performance at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards. Faith Hill performed the remix version of the song at the 2000 Grammy Awards ceremony. The footage of the performance was released on the DVD Grammy's Greatest Moments later that year.
In 2000, saxophonist Michael Lington covered the song from his album, Vivid.[1][2]
Critical reception
The song received a positive review in Billboard, which said, "Let Me Let Go" is a well-written song about moving on after a failed relationship, and Hill's intimate, vulnerable vocal illustrates why she's one of the genre's top female talents. The fact that her voice is combined with Vince Gill's lush, lovely backing harmonies elevates this record to heavenly heights. The production by Hill and Dann Huff is a little more pop-driven than on her previous ballads, but radio seems to be firmly behind this deserving artist, and are willing to stretch with her."[3]
