Some Gave All was the debut album by American country music musician Billy Ray Cyrus. It was released on Mercury Records in 1992, and it produced four hit singles on the Billboard country charts. The first of these was Cyrus's breakthrough song "Achy Breaky Heart", which topped the charts in several countries. In the US it was a five-week number one on the Hot Country Songs chart, as well as a top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It became the first single ever to achieve triple Platinum status in Australia and was the best-selling single of 1992 in the same country. Thanks to the video of the song, there was an explosion of line dancing into the mainstream, becoming a craze. The song was originally recorded as "Don't Tell My Heart" by The Marcy Brothers on their 1991 self-titled album.
"Could've Been Me", "Wher'm I Gonna Live?" and "She's Not Cryin' Anymore" were also released as singles, peaking at #2, #23, and #6, respectively, on the country charts. Cyrus' cover of "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" charted only outside the United States, and the title track also reached #52 based on unsolicited airplay.
