"Please Remember Me" is the title of a song co-written by American country music artist Rodney Crowell and Will Jennings. Originally recorded by Crowell on his 1995 album Jewel of the South, his version was release as a single that year. Crowell's version of the song peaked at #69 on the Billboard country charts upon its release. A later version was released by Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt, but was not released as a single.[1]
Four years after the release of his own version, Crowell selected several songs which he recommended to record producer Byron Gallimore. Eventually, "Please Remember Me" made its way to Tim McGraw, who recorded it for his 1999 album A Place in the Sun. Released that year as the first single from that album, McGraw's rendition reached the top of the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts, a position that it held for five weeks. The song was also McGraw's biggest solo hit on the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at #10.
