Kenny Rogers Version
Rogers was reaching the peak of his career at this time, and "She Believes In Me" became one of his biggest crossover hits in the late spring of 1979, reaching number one on the Billboard Country Singles chart. "She Believes in Me" also peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart, and number one on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. It was also a minor pop hit in Great Britain reaching number 42. The melody of the chorus also bears a striking resemblance to the chorus of "Lost Without Your Love" by soft rock band Bread (released in 1977), with the chords and structure being almost identical.
