From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Read My Mind was an album by Reba McEntire released in April 1994. It was preceded by the first single, Why Haven't I Heard From You which peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard country chart. The album's second single, She Thinks His Name Was John, was the first country song to address the topic of AIDS. Due to the subject matter, some radio stations shyed away from putting it into heavy rotation. But due to Reba's immense popularity, the song still peaked at #15. The third single, Till You Love Me became McEntire's first song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. The album peaked at No. 2 on both the country album chart and the Billboard 200 and is currently certified triple platinum by the RIAA.
