Background and content
During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Cristy Lane had commercial success in country music with songs like "Let Me Down Easy" and "I Just Can't Stay Married to You". In 1980 she reached the number one spot with the Christian-themed "One Day at a Time", which brought her more public exposure.[1] However, following the single's success, her commercial popularity began to wane, but she continued recording secular country material before transitioning to Christian music in the middle 1980s.[2] Among these albums was 1982's Here's to Us.[3]
The project contained a total of ten tracks.[4] The album featured a mixture of original recordings and covers of previously-recorded songs. Among its new tracks was "The Good Old Days" and the title track. Covers included Skeeter Davis' "The End of the World" and the Bee Gees' "Lost in Your Love". Here's to Us was recorded in April 1982 in sessions held in Nashville, Tennessee. The album was produced by Ron Oates.[3]
