Jordan Hill (born in Knoxville, Tennessee USA), is an American singer/songwriter.
Hill was originally signed by producer David Foster to his own label 143 Records, a division of Warner Music Group. Her first song, "Remember Me This Way", which was produced by Foster, became the film Casper's theme song and released as single.
Jordan Hill's self-titled debut album was produced by David Foster, Greg Charley, Rhett Lawrence, Jeff Pescetto, SoulShock & Karlin and Mario Winans. Hill covered many songs, such as Cheryl Lynn's "Got to Be Real", Oleta Adams' "I Just Had to Hear Your Voice", and Lisa Stansfield's "Make It Right." "For The Love Of You", produced by Foster and Winans, was released as the first single; it became a hit both in Billboard Hot 100 and R&B/Hip charts. However, the remix version by Tony Moran became her biggest hit, going Top 10 on Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts.
The second single, released only in Europe, was "How Many Times" (which was later covered by Aretha Franklin) and the third single, also a Europe exclusive, was "Too Much Heaven", a cover of a Bee Gees song and featured Barry Gibb singing backup. Due to a lack of support and promotion, she left the label.
She worked with some notable artists, such as the Bee Gees and Jim Brickman, on whose 1999 Top 10 Adult Contemporary hit "Destiny" she was a featured vocalist, along with Billy Porter.
Jordan is currently writing and recording a follow up album which is due to be released in early 2013.
Famous quotes containing the words jordan and/or hill:
“To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty.”
—June Jordan (b. 1939)
“O glorious Life, Who dwellest in earth and sun,
I have lived, I praise and adore Thee.
A sword swept.
Over the pass the voices one by one
Faded, and the hill slept.”
—Sir Henry Newbolt (18621938)
