While country star Faith Hill doesn't attend many events these days, making a sighting of the singer a rare and exciting occurrence, she used to be a main fixture in country music. But even after taking a break from making music, her impactful discography and live singing talent are still a trending topic, including a breathtaking performance at the Grammy Awards 26 years ago.
On Feb. 23, 2000, Hill, who has been married to fellow country singer Tim McGraw since 1996, took the stage at the prestigious awards show to perform her hit song, "Let Me Let Go." The song was originally released on Sept. 14, 1998, as a single off her third studio album, Faith.
The song was a major success, both the original country version and a remixed pop track that was on the soundtrack for the 1999 movie Message in a Bottle. It earned a Grammy nomination for Best Female Country Vocal Performance, leading to Hill's invitation to attend and perform at the event in 2000.
Hill took the stage for her performance in a sparkling sleeveless dress that stopped just above the knee, while she wore her hair in her signature style, parted down the middle with slight volume. At the show, Hill performed the pop remix of the song, and her powerful vocals and natural stage presence left many in awe.
Even now, people are still talking about the performance online. Someone shared a clip of it on YouTube over a decade later to share with new and old fans, and in the years since, many people have shared their earnest reactions to Hill's talent.

One person who was allegedly at the Grammys that night wrote, "I was there. 11th row. She started nervous …but she stole the show."
Others called the song "A bitter sweet piece of genius" and said, "it was this performance that got me hooked onto her.. been a fan since."
Another saw Hill's performance and declared her "one of the best female singers of all time, i love everything about her voice."
While Hill didn't win the Grammy that night, she still went home a winner after leaving audiences spellbound by her singing.
Thankfully, Hill went on to nab her first-ever Grammy in the same category the next year with her song "Breathe," along with the awards for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals and Best Country Album. She won two more Grammys in 2003 and 2006 as well.
