Overview
Heavy Rotation is the fourth studio album from Anastacia. It's her first studio album in over four years, since her critically acclaimed self-titled 3rd studio album 'Anastacia' released in 2004. According to Anastacia, the album is inspired by how happy her life is at the moment, with the title 'Heavy Rotation' having a deeper meaning to it, referring to how life rotates and that it gets "heavy".


She has stated the following about the title:

I called the album Heavy Rotation because it's a phrase that originated with DJs, and also for me the meaning is, life can be heavy, but it all turns around and goes into something else. It seemed to be the perfect title for where I'm at in my life.”



Heavy Rotation will be Anastacia's first studio album on her new record deal with Universal Music Group/Mercury since her departure from Epic/Daylight. She said the album would of came out earlier but was pushed back because of the negotiations with the record labels.

Anastacia has stated in an interview with her Austrian Fan Club that her favourite song on the album is "Heavy Rotation", which has received positive feedback from fans and critics alike.


Critical Reception
So far, the album has received extremely good critical reactions! CapitalFM described it as "one of her strongest and most varied albums to date." FemaleFirst rated 'Heavy Rotation' giving it 5 out of 5 Stars, claiming on some tracks that have been compared to Amy Winehouse, Duffy & Adele as "this is a track that blows all the competition out of the water" and other tracks as "think of Madonna and Britney Spears’ attempts at their reinvention and multiply it by 1,000 and this song is what you’d end up with;". Lastly, MSN mentioned that Heavy Rotation is "well worth a listen."
