The Hush is the fifth album by Scottish rock band Texas. Released in May 1999 as the follow up to their previous studio album released in 1997, the album went onto achieve similar international success than that of its predecessor. It debuted at number one in Scotland and the United Kingdom and spent a total of 43 weeks on the UK Album Chart. It has been certified triple platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. It performed strongly in a number of continental European album charts, reaching the top ten in France, Germany, Switzerland and Sweden.

The album was recorded at both Shar's House, the home recording studio of lead singer Sharleen Spiteri, and Park House Studios, both in Glasgow, Scotland. Its release marked the first time that outside record producers were not involved in the production process of a Texas album. Instead, bassist Johnny McElhone, performing under the name Johnny Mac, assumed sole responsibly for the album's production. Three singles were taken from the album: "In Our Lifetime", "Summer Son" and "When We Are Together".
