Music icon Faith Hill is a well-known name in country music these days, but it wasn't until 1994, 31 years ago, that she began her rise in the industry, nabbing her first No. 1 country song at the beginning of that year.
Hill's debut single, "Wild One," which came out in late 1993 on her first album, Take Me as I Am, was an almost instant hit.
The track quickly took over radio airwaves, and on Jan. 1, 1994, it took the top spot on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart, becoming Hill's first No. 1 hit.
"Wild One" held the top position for four weeks, while other singles from the album weren't far behind. Only a few months later, on April 30, the track "Piece of My Heart" became her second No. 1 country song.
While there were no other No. 1 songs from the album, the title track, "Take Me as I Am," impressively reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.

Of course, this was only the start of Hill's long-lasting and successful country career, and throughout the 31 years since then, she has continued to release popular and memorable music.
Hill has had a total of nine No. 1 country songs so far. Along with the previously-mentioned tracks, this list also includes "Breathe," "The Way You Love Me," "This Kiss," "It Matters To Me," "Mississippi Girl," and "It's Your Love," the last of which is a duet with her husband, fellow country singer Tim McGraw.
She has also had success on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, with "There You'll Be," "It's Your Love," "The Way You Love Me," "This Kiss," and "Breathe" all entering the top 10. Her highest-charting song was "Breathe," which reached No. 1 on this chart.
While fans of Hill have plenty of great music from the past to listen to, many are hoping to see the singer return to music soon. In recent years, she's kept her life quite private, only attending occasional events with her family.
Her last studio album to come out was The Rest of Our Life, her duet album with McGraw that was released on Nov. 17, 2017.
