We'll Sing in the Sunshine (album)
We'll Sing in the Sunshine is the tenth studio album by Australian-American pop singer Helen Reddy that was released in 1978 by Capitol Records. The album included two songs that were also covered by Johnny Mathis in the first half of that year: "All I Ever Need", which came out on his March release, "You Light Up My Life", and "Ready or Not", on which he duetted with Deniece Williams for their June release, "That's What Friends Are For". Reddy also ventures into Beatles territory with their rockabilly number "One  After 909" and takes on Jeff Lynne's "Poor Little Fool" with accompaniment in the vein of Electric Light Orchestra.

Reddy writes of this song, "For those who can't commit because they hear the call of the open road, this one is for you." "Ready or Not" had its Easy Listening chart debut as the second single from the album later that year, in the  July 1 issue, and got as high as number 28 over the course of eight weeks. The July 15 issue saw the start of the song's five-week run on the Hot 100, during which time it made it to number 73, and in Canada's RPM magazine it reached number 70 pop. Track listing.
