About This Track

Canadian country-pop music singer Anne Murray was a fan of the original recording and decided to record a cover version in 1972. Included on her album of the same name, Murray’s version of “Danny’s Song” was a hit, reaching the Top 10 on three major Billboard music charts in early 1973. On the pop chart, the song reached #7;[2] on the country chart, it peaked at #10;[1] and on the adult contemporary chart, it spent two weeks at #1 in March of that year. [1] Murray’s version also earned her a Grammy Award nomination in the category Best Female Pop Vocal performance at the Grammy Awards of 1974, losing out to “Killing Me Softly with His Song” by Roberta Flack.

Murray stated that she loved the original version, but the song took on a deeper meaning for her after the birth of her first child a few years later. In an interview, she stated that “Whenever I was singing that song, it was very meaningful.”
