Faith Hill Is One of the Few People Who Can Tell Tim McGraw His Songs Need Work

McGraw's wife, Faith Hill, isn't afraid to tell him when something needs to change on a record. In fact, McGraw says he waits until his songs are nearly finished before letting her hear them because he knows she'll give him an honest opinion.

"I don't like to share it too early," he explains. "I like to get it to where it's sounding pretty decent before they hear it because they'll let me know the truth for sure."

That honesty is something McGraw appreciates, even if it means going back into the studio to make changes.

Faith Hill's Opinion Carries Plenty of Weight With Tim McGraw

McGraw doesn't just value Hill's opinion because she's his wife. He knows her experience as a recording artist makes her feedback worth hearing.

"Faith's one of the best recording artists out there and one of the greatest singers in the world, I think. So when she hears something on a record and tells me I need to go back and check that, I'll go back and check it."

That's a pretty good person to have in your corner when you're making music, even if she's not always going to tell you what you want to hear.
