Anastacia - Anastacia

...at the hands of cancer, Anastacia has had operation after operation, but while she was practically in her hospital bed she decided to jump up and make a new album, and what an amazing album it is. Until I heard Left Outside Alone (Track 2 on album), which might I add holds the title as the longest running single in the UK Singles Chart this year (around 20 weeks), I hadn’t really recognised Ani at all. I had heard a couple of her previous singles ...
...wondering… ‘Sprock’ is described by Anastacia as a mixture of Soul, Pop and Rock.) So, I hear you say… “Get to the ruddy part about the album” OK HERE GOES……………… Track 1 – Seasons Change. Probably the most rocky song on the album, and what a song to start the album off. I think this song was made for Anastacia to sing. (In fact it was made for Anastacia to sing, she co-wrote it with K. Deoguard & J. Rzeznik.) It is just fantastic and a song that ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

...either. This latest slice of Anastacia art is welcomed with open arms in my opinion. I've always really liked her voice, she's powerfully gifted vocally reaching ranges beyond comprehension. Talent wise she is limitless in the offerings she brings to us in the shape of her albums. This latest self-titled smash was catapulted into our charts with the release of Left Outside Alone, and more recently, the aptly titled Sick and Tired. It's hard to believe ...
...many genres of music and Anastacia adapting her voice more than ever before. The sound is maturer but still throaty and powerful, and the lyrics are true to life written by the woman herself. Not many artists of this calibre left and Anastacia has all the finesse of a legend who will be around for years to come. I'm not exaggerating, you'll be hard pushed to find any artist with the strength of voice and character, the talent and classic originality ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

I’m a fairly new member here but decided it was time for me to take the plunge and write a proper review. I’m a real music buff and love all types of music from R ‘N’ B to Rock, Pop to Indie. It really doesn’t bother me, I love it all. Just recently I bought Anastacia’s new album. It’s her third one and I really think its her best so far. Season Change (4.17) ************************* The first track has a good tempo to it. It’s relatively quick ...
...good and are quite easy to listen to. The music is good with a the drum backing her vocals quite well. The track has quite a rock feel to it rather than pop and it serves as a good opening to the album. Left Outside Alone (4.17) *************************** This was the first song I heard from this album and how I realised she had a new album out. It is a much slower song than the first one and the start sounds a bit like Evanescence. Her vocals ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

Anastacia (Anastacia Newkirk) originally from the Greek work meaning 'she will rise again'. But has Anastacia managed to live up to her names origin?? Anasatcia, 31, was originally brought up in New York and was born into a entertainment-orientated family. With her father a singer and mother an actress in musicla theatre on Broadway it must of only been a matter of time before she broke out into the performing arts world herself! Anastacia started ...
...2003 it was revealed that Anastacia had been diagnosed with breast cancer when waiting for breast reduction surgery for ortherpedic reasons. The pop princess completed a course of treatment sucessful and was back in the studios in September 2003 with Glen Ballard, Dallas Austin and Dave Stewart recording her third album ‘Anastacia’ to be realeased 2004! When she released ‘Left Outside Alone’ earlier this year I knew at once, she’s back! After purchasing ...

...pronunciation of a swear word I've ever heard! Overall, there are some fillers on this album, but her voice is amazing and most tracks show how powerful her voice is. It's well worth a listen, I'm not an Anastacia fan, but still enjoyed most tracks on this album ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

If you haven’t heard of Anastacia where have you been? When Anastacia burst on to the scene just a few years back, her combination of light rock music and unique rustic voice saw her dominate the charts. With her Kick ass albums being so popular, many, including myself, wondered how the new album would compare. The self titled album ‘Anastacia’ is every bit as good as the first; in fact I would go so far as to say I prefer this album. The first release ...
...only to be quashed by Anastacia in her interviews that the track wasn’t written because of one person in particular. Here she collaborates with a none accredited artist to create an unusual mixture of vocal talent, and seriously works well. ‘Heavy on my Heart’ is my favourite track of the album. This song really stretches the singing abilities of Anastacia and really demonstrates the power of her voice along with a great backing group and really ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

...this has got to be anastacia as she has such a unique voice. I was right so the first chance I got I was out to buy the album as I thought even if I only liked this song I felt it would be worth it. So I was in Sainsbury's and noticed it was on sale it was chucked straight in to the basket and I have played it to death ever since. I absolutely love every song on the album and it is excellent value for money at just £9.79 The very first time I heard ...
...fancy titles it's just called anastacia but then I don't think that it actually needs one. Every one of the songs is sung ewith such emotion that on sonme songs I find myself close to blubbering. I think that a lot of the songs are based on her experiences that she has been through over the last few years, especially her battling breast cancer she is a fantastically strong woman to come through the other end and as for her talent I think it's amazing ...

...price but buy it, because anastacia gives money to charity and she deserves to be credited after what shes been through, but beware, the CD will not play on pc media players, because it has copywrite protection, so all you copywriters can forget it, lol. If you are looking to order this cd you can purchase it for £7.99 on Play.com. I would say that this album can appeal to almost everybody as it has a bit of everything within it, and the pictures ...
...very uplifting song. Glad when Anastacia released this song but it deserved a higher chart position! Pretty Little Dum Dum-Not the best song on the album, quite good. Starts off well, then gets worse... Sexy Single-My least favourite track on the album, more like her first singles! This should be on her first album! Rearview-Brilliant song and probably my favourite on the album! It's smooth background beat and smoky melody make it one of those ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

...well, i never really liked Anastacia but i heard her single "left outside alone" on the radio and i thought "bloody hell! its awesome!" so i went and bought it. And it was OK but not great... The album consists of 12 songs, all featuring her amazing voice (obviously). Perhaps her recent experience of having breast cancer has caused her to think over stuff... mabe it had an effect on her song writing or something? 1 - Seasons Change - The first ...
...worth rushing out to buy! Also Anastacia is a woman who deserves admiration. She represents so many women who have battled through breast cancer and then tried to continue their careers after, and i think shes done a really good job. Also its good to sing along to! ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

unless your into really cheasy pop music then this is probably not for you. or if youre aged 50 and over then youd probably love it. its very repetative and the lyrics either dont make sense or dont sound good. all her songs sound the same!! and her style of voice is terrible. i would never buy this album but as my mum loves her i had to buy it for her and listen to a noisy voice for a while. but she doesnt listen to in anymore. thank god!! lol ...

Well what can I say about this woman. She has amazing talent and the most unique and amazing voice I have ever heard. All of her other albums have done well and this one should do even better. Her voice is so strong on every track and you cant help but wanting to get up, dance and sing along to the music. Each track is unique in its own right and has a crisp clean sound to it. Her voice overpowers the room when you put it on your cd player, its amazing. ...

Review of Anastacia - Anastacia

This album is amazing! I was never really a great fan of Anastacia's when she brought out her first album. However she does have a big voice and is (was) one of those singers who I felt has the ability to produce if the tracks are right, though she has since released some decent tracks. When my girlfriend came home with this self titled album I was amazed, it's a masterpiece! Every track is great and you won't ever be disappointed with this one. ...
...with a few 'fill ins' added to make up the numbers, not this one, every track is good enough to be a single. I'm certain this will be one of the albums of the year. Track Listing: 1. Seasons Change 2. Left Outside Alone 3. Time 4. Sick and Tired 5. Heavy On My Heart 6. I Do (featuring Sonny of P.O.D.) 7. Welcome To My Truth 8. Pretty Little Dum Dum 9. Sexy Single 10. Rearview 11. Where Do I Belong 12. Maybe Today ...

...always been a fan of Anastacia I have found her music to be lively and well written. However after an interview i saw i was a bit bored of her she came across as not wanting to continue with music (this was before the cancer treatment). However i recieved this album as a birthday present. And i'm so please! Its fantastic! Since her Breast Cancer treatment Anastacia has got a new lease of life, the new work that she has done is amazing. She is ...
