This Is the Way That I Feel is the name of the fourth solo studio album released by American country music singer, Marie Osmond. This was Osmond's first album under the Polydor/Kolob label, following her departure from MGM Records. It was released in April 1977 and would be her last solo studio album for eight years.
This Is the Way That I Feel was a departure for Osmond as it took a more Pop-sounding direction than any of her previous albums. The album produced two singles, only the title track charted, peaking within the Top 40, at #39, on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the summer of 1977; that song was written by George Jackson, who had previously penned the breakthrough hit "One Bad Apple" for Osmond's brothers. The other single from the album, "Please Tell Him That I Said Hello," failed to chart.
The album reached a peak of #152 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.[2][3] The album was produced by Rick Hall, who had also previously produced for her brothers in the early 1970s. It was reviewed by Allmusic and was given 3 out of 5 stars.[4]
