It is an album of love songs. [3]
Colin Bratkovich in his 2014 book Just Remember This describes the album as following: "This LP [...] found Jane recording 1930s' ditties that she may have done only on radio. [...] The ears of this author [...] find Jane has improved vocally." [3]
Yours Alone was a follow-up to her highly successful album With a Song in My Heart , [1] that had spent numerous weeks at number one on Billboard's Best-Selling Pop Albums chart in 1952. [4] [5]
"This new waxing should also move nicely across the counters," wrote the Billboard magazine in its review from 7 February 1953. The magazine called the album "a tasteful disking" and gave it 80 points out of 100, which indicated an "excellent" rating. The reviewer elaborated: "On this set Miss Froman does a lovely job with a group of wonderful evergreens, projecting them with warmth and feeling. She is in fine form, soft and tender with 'Hands Across the Table', pert and lively on 'How About You' and very effective on all the other top-flight ballads." [1]
