How Do You Say I Don't Love You Anymore was Freda Payne's second American album (following a release in Sweden with Don Gardner), released May 28, 1966. Although regarded primarily as a jazz album, there are also several covers of pop songs featured, including the Beatles' hit "Yesterday," "Let It Be Me," the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'," "Feeling Good," and "If You Love Me (Really Love Me)."

On 'Let It Be Me,' the bluesy treatment takes over. 'Yesterday' is delivered in approved pop standard style. Miss Payne is a versatile and polished performer who understands a lyric.

The album was reissued on CD on March 31, 2009, by Poker Records. The reissue contains a biographical essay of Payne's life and career by Mick Patrick (written in December 2008).
