When a teenage Amy Grant started off in the mid 70s in Nashville, gospel (inspirational) music records sold very less - limited to Christian bookstores mostly. She herself was deeply influenced by the Church and the hymns sung in the services. So it was no wonder that she would experiment in Christen singing and songwriting. At that time she used to play at many of the city's prestigious schools. Soon the word spread about her talent and at the age of 17 she was signed up and released her 1st album the very next year. By the time 1981 came, Grant had also released a couple of live albums. It was also a time when Christian music had become an established and popular genre thanks to Amy Grant. But it was her 1982 album Age To Age, that really put her in the mainstream of pop music. The music combined pop and gospel and proved to the world that it can still be appealing. The album earned her a Grammy for Best Contemporary Album. It was no looking back for the young singer. She started touring after that and recording with other artists especially Michael W. Smith - later became close friends. Meanwhile she also kept making music which ultimately came out in the form of her another pop oriented Christian album in 1984 titled "Straight Ahead". Over the next few years she released two more albums, Unguarded (1986) and Lead me On (1988) which received appreciation from her ever growing fan base in both these albums, there was clearly a move towards contemporary pop genre. What finally established Amy Grant in the mainstream pop music world was her 1991 album "Heart in Motion". The single "Baby Baby" hit the Billboard charts at no. 1 and the rest of the world suddenly became aware of the singer as a pop artist. Selling 5 million copies, Heart in Motion has been her best-selling album to date. All through the 90s, Grant gave her fans a few more albums - including a 3rd Christmas album, A Christmas to Remember - with catchy pop melodies combined with spiritual lyrics. The sales of Amy Grant tickets rose considerably. Her concerts were usually sold out. Some of her popular singles include "That's What Love Is For", " Lucky One", "Breath of Heaven", "Big Yellow Taxi", the 10cc cover song, "The Things We Do for Love" and many more. The Christmas album later was certified as Gold in 2000. After two years, she again touched her roots and released another full gospel album, "Legacy...Hymns and Faith". In 2005 she was honored with a star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame.
