Barbara Mandrell’s “Sleeping Single in a Double Bed” Gets a Remake

Barbara Mandrell released Dave Audé’s remix of her hit song “Sleeping Single In A Double Bed.”

Written by Kye Fleming and Dennis Morgan, the dance-infused remix premiered on Rolling Stone. The original song was released August 1, 1978 and was the first single from her album, Moods. “Sleeping Single In A Double Bed” would later reach No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles Chart, the first of her six No. 1 singles.

Producer Dave Audé, who earned a GRAMMY for remixing the Bruno Mars’ smash Uptown Funk in addition to working with everyone from Katy Perry, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Madonna, U2, Sting, and more,  expresses his admiration for Mandrell and her music as he says in a release,  “I grew up as a kid on the West Coast watching the Barbara Mandrell Show and immediately became a fan. I am always humbled by the huge talent I’ve been able to work with throughout my career and Barbara is right there at the top. It’s been an honor to remix and re-imagine Barbara’s first Number One hit “Sleeping Single In A Double Bed” into something fresh and exciting”

Additionally, Mandrell has announced she will be releasing an exclusive greatest hits album on vinyl titled, After All These Years: A Collection. The vinyl will be available July 10 at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® locations nationwide and online, marking Mandrell’s first release on vinyl in decades. The project is very special to Mandrell, as she handpicked the songs that would be released in the collection.

“When I listen to the songs that were selected from different albums I recorded, I think about those of you that I recorded them for and those of you that are hearing them for the first time,” shares Mandrell. “The greatest desire of my heart was to be an entertainer. My Heavenly Father — and you — gave me my 38-year career in show business. I’m deeply grateful and I hope that these selections from some of my albums entertain you.”
