In 1995, he released "Standing on the Edge" for Patriot. Its lead-off single, "Standing on the Edge of Goodbye," was a No. 2 hit for him that year, and was followed by the No. 4 "I Think About It All the Time." The other two singles — "If I Had Any Pride Left at All" and "Every Time My Heart Calls Your Name" — did not reach Top 20 in the US, but did in Canada. This album was certified gold in both countries. A Christmas album entitled "O Holy Night" was also released in 1995, also on Patriot. In a memorable performance at the 1995 Country Music Awards, John sang "If I Had Any Pride Left At All" with nothing but his acoustic guitar.
