Faith in Me, Faith in You
# Faith in Me, Faith in You

Faith in Me, Faith in You is the seventh studio album by American country music artist Doug Stone. It was his only album for Columbia Records after leaving Epic Records' roster in 1995. Although this album produced three singles — "Sometimes I Forget", the title track, and "Born in the Dark" — none of these singles reached Top Ten on the country music charts. "Sometimes I Forget" peaked at number 41, becoming the first single of his career to miss Top 40 entirely.

## History and content

Following this album, he suffered a series of health problems which would place his career on hiatus until he signed to Atlantic Records in 1999.

The track "Honky Tonk Mona Lisa" was originally recorded by Marcus Hummon on his 1995 album All in Good Time, from which it was released as a single that year. The same song would later be recorded by Neal McCoy on his 2003 album The Luckiest Man in the World. "Look Where She Is Today" was later recorded by Mark Wills on his 1996 self-titled debut.

## Critical reception

Richard McVay of Cash Box magazine reviewed the album with favor, praising the mix of upbeat songs and ballads along with Stone's voice, concluding that "Stone has once again incorporated his unique style, vocal charisma, and musical enthusiasm onto an animated 10-cut album."
