Search - Paul Anka :: Classic Songs My Way: 50th Anniversary Edition (2CD)

Special limited edition double disc set that combines the original thirteen tracks of this album with a second CD set of twenty rearranged covers of songs Anka recorded previously in his career. 2007 marks this legendary pop icon's 50th anniversary in the music business. Not content to rest on his numerous laurels, Anka follows up his 2005 album Rock Swings with a carefully chosen set of popular tunes that have once again been adapted for his unique style of performing. These choices reinforce the notion that 'it's all about the song', and Anka himself knows a great one when he hears it. Thus, his choices of The Killers' 'Mr. Brightside', Marc Cohn's 'Walking In Memphis', Cyndi Lauper's 'Time After Time', Duran Duran's 'Ordinary World' and Daniel Powter's 'Bad Day' result in classic renditions that bring these songs to an entirely different audience.
