In celebration of her 80th birthday, Anne Murray released her 33rd LP, All of Me, in 2025. Per a press release on her official website, “the album features 11 never-before-heard songs recorded between 1978 and 1995.”

“Imagine my surprise and delight,” Murray said in a statement shared to her website, “when a young fan, who first saw me perform in Las Vegas, years ago, when he was 15, told me that he had discovered several songs that had never been released… songs that didn’t make the cut between the years 1978 and 1995. Here are a few of them.”

The track list for the new LP includes songs such as, “Heaven In My Heart,” “Bring All Your Heartaches To Me,” “Here You Are,” “Feels Like More Than Dancing,” “I Lost My Dog,” “How About Goodbye,” “Maybe,” “Rest Easy (In My Love),” “Straight From The Heart,” “Gone,” and “Catch My Breath.”
