Oddly a singer recovers (7)
I believe the answer is:
regains
'recovers' is the definition.
('regain' can be a synonym of 'recover')
'oddly a singer' is the wordplay.
'oddly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'singer'='asinger'
'asinger' anagrammed gives 'REGAINS'.
(Other definitions for regains that I've seen before include "Gets back" , "Wins back" .)
