This album was followed one year later by Living in a Moment, which produced his second number one country hit in its title track.

Herndon released three more albums for Epic — Big Hopes (1998), Steam (1999), and This Is Ty Herndon: Greatest Hits (2000). He recorded a Christmas album in 2002 for the Riviera label, followed by his fifth studio album (2007's Right About Now) and a second Christmas compilation for the Titan Pyramid label. Journey On followed in 2010.

Herndon has charted a total of 17 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. This figure includes three Number ones — "What Mattered Most," "Living in a Moment" and "It Must Be Love" — and four additional Top Ten hits: "I Want My Goodbye Back," "Loved Too Much," "A Man Holding On (To a Woman Letting Go)" and "Hands of a Working Man."
Boyd Tyrone Herndon was born in Meridian, Mississippi, but raised in Butler, Alabama. He became involved in music as a teenager, playing the piano and singing Gospel music. Shortly after graduating from Austin High School in Decatur, Alabama, Herndon moved to Nashville to pursue a career in music. This did not prove to be easy, however, and after 10 years, he moved to Texas. He gained a following on the Texas honkytonk circuit and, in 1993, Herndon won Texas Entertainer of the Year. Later that year, Herndon was signed to Epic Records.
