- Here's another rare wonder I've never seen on CZcams. I'm not sure Anne ever looked better than she did on this January night in 1986. I so admired this bold shift in look and sound -- not to mention the high quality of the entire "Something to Talk About" album. I'll try to post the remixes and rarities from those sessions in the months ahead.
We believed in decency back then, life wasn’t easy, but it had an integrity in it. Look at what we have now… someone invent a time machine!
It's confusing with modern singers especially the women, it's almost as if to be famous you have to show more cleavage, and hardly have 'any' clothes on!
Mejor explicado imposible.
We need to throw away our phones! No internet! Let's live like we did back then 😢
Beautiful song! I actually had the opportunity to talk with Anne Murray four summers ago! She is such a nice lady!
The most beautiful song, she ever made!! Ive always loved it ❤
I'm 23, its hard finding women my age who listen to these kinda songs...classic!
Thanks for sharing!!
It’s so sad the music people your age think is great. Yikes!!!
Anne Murray, that voice! Just flawless! It all started with that signature song of hers, "You Needed Me," got me hooked after that! :-)
Can I please go back to 1986. Life was new and less complicated.
Yes, but no smartphones, no internet, start from that.
Beautiful Anne Murray with a lovely voice, one of the best song in the late 80's.
One of the best female voices ever and i agree that it's one of the best songs of the late 80's which is in my opinion the best decade in music of all time.

This and Marie Osmond's "There's No Stopping Your Heart" are my favorites from the time.
J'avais 18 ans lorsque j'ai acheté mon premier disque d'Anne »Murray, j'ai maintenant 68 ans et toujours heureuse de l'écouter. Je suis de Québec, Canada.
Now this is what I call a GREAT SINGER
Great performance. ...back when the American Music Awards still had some class.
Great voice Great Artist who sounds exactly like me Danica Djukic
Bill Hughes What a Gr8 singer!
yes youre right
@walk alone No that's not what i meant, but she aced that too.
FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!
She looks so good in this color. Sung so beautifully. Sweet Anne.
My favorite song of the 1980s. Period!!
Oh my God! Anne Murray high soaring 80's ballad ! Fantastic !
Heard this song three days ago....fell in love with it.....had no idea it was Anne Murray !!!! I've always loved her !!!!!!!! Beautiful song !!!!!
Hi Donna hope you’re okay?
Anne Murray it was always half and Half country -pop artist, beautiful song and beautiful voice.
One of my favs from Anne Murray, gotta love those unique 80’s stages, so cool!
That's the best Anne Murray ever looked or sounded. I love that song. Thanks for posting this.
And beautiful background vocals by Richard Page from Mr Mister..one of my favourites of Anne's. Grew up watching this very awards ceremony over and over..those were the days!
Hands down this is certainly the best slow song ever made !!! Bravo to Ann Murray.
Agree but it's spelled Anne
Amazing voice, amazing woman, classy and beautiful, timeless.
An early David Foster (over) production made great by one of the best voices of our time. Award shows often encouraged lip-synched performances back then to save time and other resources.
This song was a new and risky direction for her. It paid off at the time (it was a respectable hit,) but it wasn't until her early 90s albums "You Will" and "Yes I Do" that her pop/country following returned to her enmass.
Foster always pushes his artists out of their comfort zones with his vocal arrangments. This is evident if you listen to Mariah Carey's "Without You" and Celine Dion's "All By Myself." In this song, the stretch for Anne comes at the end of the bridge ("...you're the one thing...") and then toward the end of the song when it modulates to an uncomfortably higher key for Anne.
I had the privilege of seeing her in concert in 1988. She handled the song very well vocally, but of course music-wise the production value was much different than heard on the record. Because of the tune's range, I'm sure it became increasingly difficult to perform live as the years went by and her voice became a little more limited, a natural occurrence as a vocalist ages.
One of the more interesting fun facts is the album title on which the song appeared. The album is titled "Something To Talk About." Murray recorded it several years prior to Bonnie Raitt, but the record company advised that the song's theme might not sit well with most in her fan base. They kept the album title just the same, to perhaps spark interest. With the exception of one or two, most of the songs on the album contained synthesizers, a few suggestive lyrics here and there and strayed far from her usual sound. So I'd say they were smart in keeping the title.
-For listeners who have not yet heard it, I would very strongly recommend her album simply titled "Anne," which was recorded ten years later in 1996. It features a duet with Aaron Neville as well as a song penned by fellow Canadian Bryan Adams (who also sings backup on the recording.)
El gran David Foster el hacedor de éxitos.
Aloha Anne Murray and K L Holt !!! Thank you for posting "Now And Forever (You & Me)" Enjoyed your singing so much !!!!!

Estas canciones son máquinas del tiempo. Tiempos que fueron hermosos, magicos pero que no volverán 😢.
One of my favourite singer, singing one of my favourite songs .
Me too
Me too
Perfect song...
One of those strong, natural voices that just pours out like a river, with enough current to carry away her listeners, however many of them there are.
It is a great song! I am impressed in a very powerful melodious voice. I thank for upload.
Great song, one of my fav, and a beautiful Ann Murray...
One of my fav too. It's spelled Anne
i fell in love with her shes an angel with a great voice to.me
Thanks for the Upload 👍 !! This song was used in a 1986 episode of All my children !! XD
That's the one thing about Anne's voice-its so unique and one of a kind- she could sing the telephone book- she has never sang a bad song on her whole career-her voice is so refreshing and soulfully comforting. Thank you Ann for just being you!!
You are absolutely correct. She could SING the phone book and it would be great!!!!!!
Earned my respect for ever

Amazing Voice
0:26 b she Sings with Heart I love. Inspiration.
Love Anne and she is so great live, don't know why they didn't let her sing. (Funny they have one male "backup singer" even though there are obviously female ones in the mix too!)
I love this album. I have the 8-track called something to talk about and used to have the cd something to talk about. The cd had very low volume so gave it away. I kept the 8-track because it had lot more volume.
Love her music for papa🤧🥰👏👏👏👏Boo & conor
what a amazing voice
Idole
The very first song I heard from her was " You needed me" and I was hooked ever since I discovered
" Could I have this dance"
Still wasnt disappointed
The 80's came Still pleased.
At some point she decided to go on tour.Unbeknownst to me it was her retirement/ fairwell concert. She played at UPAC in Kingston NEWYORK
I AM STILL KICKING MYSELF IN THE ASS FOR MISSING THAT ONE
PLEASE MISS MURRAY. COME OUT OF RETIREMENT FOR A LIMITED ENGAGEMENT?
My Yamaha piano creats that same sound, as I just love that sound!
Hi Pat hope you’re okay?
love this song
I love the Yamaha FM digital piano in this song, awsome!
lovely song x
wow. sounds exactly like the album.
This song was on my first date with Jane now she is my wife
Congratulations
It was my love song with S.N.T. - one of the great loves of my life
The best ever!
Woooow super nice voice congrats
Beautiful voice,,,,😁
She named this album "Something To Talk About" because her record label at the time didn't think she should record the song. So much for music exec's. 5 years later Bonnie Raitt got it and it became a huge hit.
John Jensen Thanks for the info. I have only heard her country's... Until I came across this video. I am in love with this song.
This was the year that I looked like Anne Murray.
Beautiful song
That's Bill Hughes behind Anne. Another amazing musician seldom mentioned by Anne! RIP Bill!
I love you my idol
Linda música!!!, Excelente apresentação!!!
I love it this Song, and I really like Ann Murray, I wish now and forever na Kami ng mommy Gorgie ko
Real singer Golden Voice
I never understood why this was considered country. It was #1 on the country charts. But didn’t get airplay on pop stations. On the other hand, songs like “Snowbird”, “Love Song”, “Danny’s Song”, and “You Needed Me” all were pop sensations. And none of them were as “pop” as this song. I love this song though.
I Loveeeeeeeee this song
i love song...anne murray
I love the voice anne murray
💖 this song..
Such a wonderful song!!!!
+SLAWOMIR DZIELICKI I agree
Reminds me of S.N.T. = one of the great loves of my life...
My wedding song 31 years ago
Great choice and you have great taste Karen
Wished it had been mine with Susan. Alas, it didn't work out
🌸🌸🌸🌸💔💔💔
The classic sound of Countrypolitan sounds better than today country witch all sounds the same
Richard Page backed Anne Murray on this.
If I'm not mistaken, this is the night before Challenger exploded.
Before the AMA became political theatre and it was just great music!!!
C'est vrai je n'ai pas grand chose ajouter , mais juste un tout petit commentaire . Si au Canada il fait très froid je constate que les salles sont bien chaudes, et pourtant je n'était pas de dans pour le savoir .. Mes amis de Facebook
