Simple Things (2003) |
Greatest Hits 1986-2004 (2004) |
Simple Things is the nineteenth album by Christian music and pop music singer-songwriter Amy Grant, released in 2003 (see 2003 in music).
Grant's first secular album (while containing Christian themes) since 1997's Behind the Eyes, Simple Things did not see the mainstream success similar to Grant's albums from the 1990s. While the album topped Billboard's Christian album chart and the title track became a Top Ten Christian single, Simple Things peaked just outside the Top Twenty on the Billboard 200, at #23. The title track peaked at the same position on the Adult Contemporary chart.
