Page "Amy Grant" Paragraph 14

After she covered the 10cc song " The Things We Do For Love " for the Mr. Wrong soundtrack, Behind the Eyes was released in September 1997.

The album struck a much darker note, leaning more towards downtempo, acoustic soft-rock songs, with more mature ( yet still optimistic ) lyrics.

She called it her " razor blades and Prozac " album.

Although " Takes A Little Time " was a moderate hit single, the album failed to sell like the previous two albums, which had both gone multi-platinum.

Behind The Eyes was eventually certified Gold by the RIAA.

The video for " Takes A Little Time " was a new direction for Grant ; with a blue light filter, acoustic guitar, the streets and characters of New York City, and a plot, Grant was re-cast as an adult light rocker.

She followed up " Behind The Eyes " with A Christmas To Remember, her third Christmas album, in 1999.

The album was certified Gold in 2000.
