  1. Despite its occasional lapses into schmaltz and generic R&B, Heavy Rotation is still a charming and versatile record that has her unmistakable voice and personality stamped all over it.

    Ultimately, though, it's her own barnstroming commitment and sheer affability that steer things safely home. [Dec 2008, p.123]
  3. It's packed with I Will Survive-type anthems designed to get women dancing around handbags. They are exhausting to listen to, but so radiant with positivity it's hard to dislike them.
  4. Anastacia’s voice--once described by a critic as a ‘human air-raid siren’--is still hard to love: when she reaches for the trembling high notes your first instinct is to duck under the table and lock your head between your knees.

    After being a anastacia fan FOR VERY LONG TIME, this is one of her best albums.. for me it's a little disco, dance and pop and mixed After being a anastacia fan FOR VERY LONG TIME, this is one of her best albums.. for me it's a little disco, dance and pop and mixed with a little bit of R&B my favorite is the single 'I can feel you', 'absoultely positviley', 'heavy rotation' & 'you'll be fine'', 'you'll be fine' reminds me of Secrets of the 'Freak Of Nature' album, anyway if you don't have it in your collection or digital BUY IT!!!!!!!!
