Songbird (A Solo Collection) is a compilation album by English musician, singer, and songwriter Christine McVie, released in 2022. It was McVie's final release before her death later that year in November.
The compilation album includes remixed songs from McVie's 1984 eponymous release and her 2004 album In the Meantime along with previously unreleased music. Producer Glyn Johns was involved with the project and helped McVie select her favorite solo songs to rework with extra instrumentation.
"Slow Down" was originally slated to appear on the soundtrack for American Flyers, but the song was not used for the film. McVie wrote the song as a love song and incorporated aspects of cycling into the lyrics. The collection also includes an orchestral rendition of "Songbird", which features an orchestral score by Vince Mendoza with vocals from the original recording found on Fleetwood Mac's Rumours album layered over it. "All You Gotta Do" was written during the In the Meantime sessions and was recorded as a duet with George Hawkins, who also appeared on the Christine McVie album. The song was left unfinished at the time, so Glyn Johns paired McVie with Ethan Johns and Ricky Peterson to complete it.
