|}}We Only Make Believe is the first studio album by American country music duo Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn. It was released on February 8, 1971, by Decca Records.[2]

This was the first of ten albums Twitty and Lynn would release annually until 1981. The album's first track is a cover of Twitty's solo hit "It's Only Make Believe", which Twitty co-wrote with Jack Nance. Lynn wrote two tracks for the album, "Don't Tell Me You're Sorry" and "We Closed Our Eyes to Shame". "I'm So Used to Loving You", another of Twitty's compositions, also appears on the album.

Critical reception

Billboard magazine's review of the album in the issue dated February 20, 1971, said, ""After the Fire Is Gone" on this LP is the hit, but Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn reveal that they've established themselves as a major country duo. Standout tunes include "It's Only Make Believe" and a very sparkling "Pickin' Wild Mountain Berries" that has definite hit appeal. Good LP. Bound to sell big."[3]

Commercial performance

The album peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot Country LP's chart and No. 78 on the US Billboard Top LP's, the duo's highest-charting album on that chart. The album was also certified Gold by the RIAA. The first and only single from the album, "After the Fire Is Gone" went to No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and also charted at No. 56 on the US Billboard 'Hot 100 chart.
