Doris Day

Legendary Hollywood singer Doris Day (87) hits the album midweek charts at No. 9 today with her new album My Heart.

This is Doris Days first ever Top 10 album. My Heart is Doris Day’s first studio album of new material in 17 years; a dozen songs of a timeless quality, with nine brand-new recordings produced by Day’s late son, Terry Melcher, plus a trio of Day classics.

"I'm thrilled that my new album is doing so well, and grateful to all my fans in the UK for supporting me and my 'Foundation' and I want you to know that any money made from this album will go to support the animals.

"I loved working in the UK when I did my films there and the people were so sweet to me. You, my dear friends, all hold a special place in my heart. With much love, Doris"
 
Ms. Day has been fully involved with the musical selections for this special release. Her son Terry Melcher – who was known as a songwriter and producer for folk-rock pioneers The Byrds (“Mr. Tambourine Man”) and other artists – co-wrote four of the new songs with Beach Boys member Bruce Johnston.
