- Covered Up:
- "That's What I Like About You" was first recorded by James House.
- "You Can Sleep While I Drive" is a Melissa Etheridge cover.
- "Wrong Side of Memphis" was first recorded by John Berry in The '80s, but his version (on an obscure indie album) was not released until after Yearwood's.
- LeAnn Rimes had the more famous version of "How Do I Live" around the same time as Trisha's.
- "Squeeze Me In", a duet with Garth Brooks from his Scarecrow album, had previously been recorded by Lee Roy Parnell.
- And Delbert McClinton, who also wrote it.
- "It Wasn't His Child", a cut from her Christmas album, was originally recorded by Sawyer Brown on their 1988 album Wide Open.
- There are debates in Garth-Trisha fan circles over whose version of "Victim of the Game" is better. Since he released his a year earlier, those who think hers is better believe in this trope.
- "Broken", the song Trisha sings in The Passion: New Orleans to great acclaim, is a Lifehouse cover.
- Refrain from Assuming: It's not "(She's an) American Girl", it's "XXX's and OOO's (An American Girl)".
- Retroactive Recognition: Many comments on the video for "Walkaway Joe" on Youtube are some variation of "Is that Matthew McConaughey?!" Yes, it is, and it was his first time in front of a camera. He plays the Joe in question.
- Signature Song: "She's in Love with the Boy", "Walkaway Joe", "XXX's and OOO's (An American Girl)", and of course, "How Do I Live".
- Tear Jerker:
- "On a Bus to St. Cloud", where the female narrator swears that she keeps seeing her lover everywhere even after he committed suicide.
- "The Song Remembers When", a poignant anthem about lost love, is absolutely gut-wrenching.
- "Walkaway Joe", about a teenage girl who gets abandoned by the boy she ran away with, will absolutely rip your heart out.
