I'm Me Again – Silver Anniversary Album is the 48th studio album of American entertainer Connie Francis, released in 1981. This is the last studio album in the singer's career. [1][2][3]
Background
After being deep into her depression as a result of being raped in November 1974, and losing her voice that she eventually got back, in 1981 she started performing to enthusiastic audiences,[4] and recording again. I'm Me Again was Connie Francis' last song to chart on the AC chart, peaking at 40, and marked her return to the studio. After the song she started to work on her next album, I'm Me Again – Silver Anniversary Album, her long-awaited comeback album celebrating 25 years of her career. The album has a mix of old hit songs from the 1950s and 1960s such as "Where the Boys Are"[5] and "My Happiness" and newly recorded songs like "Lincoln Street Chapel" and "Milk and Honey". [6] The album didn't chart, but it was important to her career, and was her return to the show business after a 7 year absence,[7] although after the album was recorded, her brother was murdered,[8] which made her go deeper into her depression.
