He then released an album of show-tunes entitled This Is the Moment.[1] The project peaked at number 64 on the Bilboard 200 list.[11] He then followed it with a collection of love songs in 2002 called Somewhere in Time.[1] In 2007, Osmond's studio album, Love Songs of the 70's, was his highest-charting record in many years, peaking at number 27 on the all-genre survey.[12] His most recent studio release is a collection of cover tunes, The Soundtrack of My Life.[1]
