Sir Cliff Richard is gearing up to honor the UK’s number-one artists Harry Styles, Elvis Presley and The Beatles by featuring their number-one hits on his upcoming 48th studio album.
The 85-year-old singer’s 12-track album, titled Only Number Ones, will see the legendary musician performing famous songs from the past eight decades.
Sir Cliff shared, “I suggested to Warner Music that I record an album of songs that made it to number one. Thank heavens they agreed! I listened to dozens of songs and chose 12 of my favourites.
“This record is my tribute to fabulous artists who had recorded wonderful tracks that achieved the number one position.”
The One Direction alum’s hit track Sign Of The Times, while The Beatles’ From Me To You, will become part of the album.
King of Rock and Roll, Elvis’ Return To Sender will also be featured.
The album will also include Bing Crosby’s White Christmas, Norman Greenbaum’s Spirit In The Sky, and The Monkees’ I’m A Believer.
Moreover, the deluxe edition will feature 14 of Sir Cliff’s own UK number one hits, including “We Don’t Talk Anymore”, “The Young Ones”, “Bachelor Boy”, “Summer Holiday” and “Congratulations”.
The album was recorded in February and is set for release on November 27, which will also mark 67 years since Sir Cliff’s first number one hit, “Living Doll” released.
