"Breathe" is a song written by Stephanie Bentley and Holly Lamar and recorded by American country music artist Faith Hill.
Warner Bros. Records released it on September 27, 1999, as the first single from Hill's fourth album of the same name (1999).
Bill Lamb from About.com said that country singer Faith Hill "leaned heavily in a pop direction" on "Breathe".
It was one of only four songs in the history of the Hot 100 to be named the number one single of the year without making it to the top of the chart on any of the weekly surveys.
(The first was "Wooly Bully" by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs in 1965, the third was "Hanging by a Moment" by Lifehouse in 2001, and the fourth was "Levitating" by Dua Lipa in 2021.
