Vera Lynn to release new album at the age of 97

London:Iconic singer Vera Lynn is all set to release a new album at the age of 97. The singer, best known for raising spirits during World War II with songs such as `We`ll Meet Again` and `The White Cliffs of Dover` - will release her latest collection on June 2, reportedly.

Classic tracks will appear alongside previously unreleased songs on Vera Lynn: National Treasure - The Ultimate Collection, which marks the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings. "I think it`s wonderful that my songs are still enjoyed, especially if it encourages people to commemorate what happened 70 years ago," Lynn said. "It`s moving for me to relive those days, and humbling to know that people still think of me. After all, it was simply my duty to keep singing." Over 40 songs will be included on the LP, including tracks which were previously only available on vinyl. Decca announced that the songs have been remastered, with some being transferred "from the original un-played source". Lynn`s last collection We`ll Meet Again reached number one in 2009, making the then-92-year-old the oldest living artist to hit the top spot.
