Overpowered's bubbling, sensual, and soulful glitterball gems effortlessly tap into the perennial glory of feeling lost and lonely at the disco at the end of the world.
-
While the commercial potential of her new album may be up for debate, as a showcase for Rosin Murphy's talent, Overpowered is an enormous success.
-
80She's melded the two sides of her history much more seamlessly; four-to-the-floor pop belters mix with touches of electronic and lyrical darkness to make one of the pop albums of the year.
-
80In a year of low-stakes disappointment for European pop, Overpowered is a triumph.
-
80The joyous next single, 'Let Me know,' along with dark gems such as 'Primitive' and 'Movie Star,' make this close to a modern synth-pop classic. [Nov 2007, p.90]
-
80The result is a delight. [Nov 2007, p.115]
-
80Crucially, her songwriting has deepened and matured. [Nov 2007, p.146]
-
80This is an album that exceeds expectations and is unlikely to disappoint those who do bother to listen to it.

Overpowered is both impressive and incredibly fun, but fun in a way that "Ruby Blue" wasn't: you don't have to think here.

75Overpowered is a silvery mirrorball of a record that perfectly illuminates the neon heart of Saturday night.

The result is a thoroughly modern pop album that will best appeal to ageing clubbers.
-
Not once does Overpowered really drag its feet, but it never truly impacts with the might one could possibly expect from an artist with such a fine pedigree.
