Sing: Chapter 1 is the seventh studio album from country music singer Wynonna Judd, released on February 3, 2009.^[9] It is her seventh solo studio album and the follow-up to her 2003 album What the World Needs Now Is Love and her holiday-themed 2006 release A Classic Christmas. This release celebrates Judd's 25th Anniversary in the music business.

Wynonna Judd teamed up with Brent Maher and Don Potter – the duo behind the many releases that Judd had as one half of the mother-daughter duo The Judds with mom Naomi Judd.

The album contains 11 cover songs, which Judd states "are a real cross-section of all the different genres I grew up with. It’s all me, its all part of the tapestry of who I am.^[10] This record is musical ADD. It's that simple. Every genre is represented on this record, and by God, it works. It's all the different chapters of my life," she said. "These are part of the backdrop of everyday life in the Judd family. It's snapshots ... of joy, pain, sorrow, life, death, divorce, kids, the whole enchilada."^[11]

The 12th song on the album is the title track and is the sole original song on the album, and was written by Rodney Crowell. The record label, Curb, commissioned dance remixes of the track by Almighty, Pete Hammond, Digital Dog and Jody den Broeder. The tracks are available together on a CD called Wynonna – Sing Remixes and were also released to DJs as CD promos. The maxi-single is available for digital download on iTunes.

Sing had been in production for over a year and a half.^[10] It includes Judd's first studio recording of Burt Bacharach's "Anyone Who Had A Heart." Wynonna previously recorded this song live for Bacharach's 1999 concert release One Amazing Night as well as in duet with Dionne Warwick for Warwick's 2006 album My Friends & Me.

In the United States, the album debuted at No. 37 on the Billboard 200 albums chart on its first week of release,^[12] with around 13,000 copies sold. It also debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard's Top Country Albums chart,^[13] and No. 18 on the Internet Albums chart.^[14] As of January 2016, the album has sold 60,000 copies in the US.^[15]
