1998 Jo Dee Messina – Bye Bye (US:#43)
“Bye, Bye” is a song written by Rory Bourke and Phil Vassar and recorded by American country music singer Jo Dee Messina. It was released in January 1998 as the first single from Messina’s album I’m Alright, and her first number-one single on both the U.S. and Canadian country charts, spending two weeks at number one on the former. “Bye, Bye” was certified gold by the RIAA on September 4, 1998, alongside “I’m Alright.”
Phil Vassar, who co-wrote the song, included his own rendition on his 2006 album, Greatest Hits, Vol. 1, alternating several lyrics in order to be presented from a masculine perspective in contrast to Messina’s feminine point of view. Pop singer Taylor Horn covered it in 2002 for her debut album, taylor-made.
