American country music singer Faith Hill recorded "Just to Hear You Say That You Love Me" as a duet with her husband Tim McGraw in 1998. It was the second single from Hill's multi-platinum 1998 album, Faith. The single's front and back cover art features Looney Tunes character and Warner Bros. mascot Bugs Bunny, as he appeared in various promotional singles for Warner Records at the time.

Critical reception

Billboard wrote, "Hill and McGraw's last vocal collaboration, "It's Your Love", spent six weeks at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Country Singles & Tracks, and it racked up countless accolades. With the momentum they have going into this record (separately and together, their careers are on fire). this looks destined to be another big hit—and deservedly so. It's a well-written tune, and Hill delivers it with full-throated passion. When McGraw comes in, backing up his Mrs., it's easy to see why they are being called the George Jones and Tammy Wynette of their generation. This is a beautiful ballad loaded with star power, and it should push all the right buttons at radio and the cash register."^[3]
