This Way Is My Way is the second studio album by Anne Murray issued in 1969 on Capitol Records. Upon its initial release, the album was only issued in Canada (it would later be made available in the U.S after Murray's chart success there in the 1970s). The album included recordings of songs by Eric Andersen, Gene MacLellan and Bob Dylan. A single release of "Snowbird" would be issued in the U.S. in 1970, where it would reach the top ten and trigger Murray's career there. The album peaked at No.13 on the Canadian RPM album chart on 20 February 1971.
