You Had Me from Hello

In 1996, Chesney and Skip Ewing saw the movie Jerry Maguire. In one of the film's most memorable scenes at the end of the movie, Tom Cruise's title character gives out a heartfelt speech to Renée Zellweger's character, Dorothy Boyd; Zellweger stops Cruise and tearfully says "You had me at 'hello'." Chesney liked that line and decided to write a song based on it, mistranslating "at" to "from". Chesney and Zellweger were later married for four months in 2005. ==Chart performance==
