It is her first studio album in over four years, since her [[Anastacia (album)|eponymous third studio album]]. According to Anastacia, the album title has a deeper meaning to it, referring to the fact that life rotates and you get through the "heavy" things.<ref name="LarsMittag - RPR1. Radio Rheinland-Pfalz"/> In the United States, ''Heavy Rotation'' was released on February 17, 2009 in digital format only, including three reworked tracks and the bonus track "Naughty". The album failed to match the commercial success of its predecessors, struggling in the music charts and regarded as a calculated "sell out" by Anastacia's label in an attempt to achieve a successful comeback.<ref>http://www.clickmusic.com/albums/article/anastacia-resurrection-review-the-evolution-of-sprock-n-roll{{dead link|date=November 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> The singer herself later stressed her regret in the label's creative direction and stated that she would return to the sound of her previous projects on later albums. The album was ranked at number 10 by ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' magazine's online "Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums of 2008".<ref name="Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums - Billboard Year In Music 2008"/> ==Background and recording== ''Heavy Rotation'' marked Anastacia's first studio album on her new record deal with [[The Island Def Jam Music Group]] and [[Mercury Records]] since her departure from [[Daylight Records|Daylight]] and [[Epic Records]] following the release of her 2005 compilation album ''[[Pieces of a Dream (Anastacia album)|Pieces of a Dream]]''. Initially scheduled for an earlier release, her next project was pushed back because of ongoing negotiations with the record labels.<ref name="br-online"/> In the album's [[liner notes]], she also commented: "It's been such a fast album I had no idea of what it was going to sound like, what I was going to say. I figured there would be a couple of love songs, but I didn't realise that most of the album was going to be as happy as it is. Even the songs I didn't write myself, that I chose, are all positive."<ref name="anastacia"/> Comparing it to previous efforts, Anastacia noted it a breakaway from her style: "The music feels different to the ''[[Anastacia (album)|Anastacia]]''. This album is more soulful. I feel more in touch with my inner self, my inner soul. I feel like I've come out of the other side of it all now, and found real peace. I've realised that life doesn't have to be controlled by me, in every way. And it's been fun, letting go, realising I don't have to be such a perfectionist."<ref name="anastacia"/> Initially scheduled for an earlier release, ''Heavy Rotation'' was pushed back because of ongoing negotiations with the record labels.<ref name="br-online"/> When asked about the meaning of the title, she explained: "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."<ref name="MTVAsia0808"/> ==Concept== On October 7, 2008, previews to three songs, including "[[Absolutely Positively]]", "Defeated", and "Heavy Rotation", were posted on Anastacia's official [[MySpace]] page.<ref name="Anastacia op MySpace Music – Gratis gestreamde MP3's, foto's en Videoclips"/> Anastacia has said in an interview with her Austrian fan club that her favorite song on the album is "Heavy Rotation".<ref name="Anastacia Fanclub Austria"/> Taken from:<ref name="anastacia" /> "I'd say this album is a softer piece of me, a gentler side, even a more feminine side. I've come into embracing my sensuality as a woman, finally. I'm like wine. It's taken a while, but my reserve is quite popular right now! I'm just really happy inside, and I think that's reflected in the music. Sometimes that comes with age, and sometimes just with what you've experienced in your life. So both of them together are why this is going to be an exciting record for me to promote. It's very thrilling, to have so many new chances, new opportunities.." Previews to all songs on the album were posted on Anastacia's German website on October 17, 2008.<ref name="anastacia1"/> ==Critical reception== {{Album ratings |MC = 66/100<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/heavy-rotation/anastacia|title=Heavy Rotation reviews |publisher=Metacritic |date=27 October 2008|accessdate=6 November 2015}}</ref> |rev1=[[AllMusic]] |rev1Score={{rating|4|5}}<ref name="r1446534"/> |rev2=[[BBC Online|BBC Music]] |rev2Score=(Positive)<ref name="bbc"/> |rev3=''[[Daily Mirror]]'' |rev3Score={{rating|3|5}}<ref name="mirror"/> |rev4=[[Digital Spy]] |rev4Score={{rating|2|5}}<ref name="digitalspy"/> |rev5=''[[The Guardian]]'' |rev5Score={{rating|3|5}}<ref name="guardian"/> |rev6=''[[The Independent]]'' |rev6Score={{rating|2|5}}<ref name="independent"/> |rev7=''[[The Independent Weekly]]'' |rev7Score=(Positive)<ref name="independentweekly"/> |rev8=[[Virgin Media]] |rev8Score={{rating|3|5}}<ref name="virginmedia"/> }} ''Heavy Rotation'' received generally positive reviews from music critics. At [[Metacritic]], which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 66, which indicates "generally favorable reviews", based on 4 reviews.<ref name="Heavy Rotation reviews at"/> On September 3, 2008, Anastacia hosted an album listening party at the ''Bureau Club'' in [[Soho]], London. On September 9, 2008, [[Capital Radio|Capital 95.8]] posted a review of that listening party, saying that ''Heavy Rotation'' is one of her strongest and most varied albums to date.<ref name="tracks"/> [[MSN]] reviewed the album at the listening party in [[London]] and felt that "The album does sound a bit like a box-ticking exercise but the first half in particular is a reminder of what made Anastacia a big name in the first place - namely, that huge voice - and it's well worth a listen."<ref name="msn"/> [[AllMusic]] critic Jon O'Brien gave the album four stars (out of five) and stated: "''Heavy Rotation'', her first studio album in nearly five years, tones down the guitars in favor of a more eclectic collection of songs that take in everything from glossy soul-funk to acoustic pop and even techno. [...] But 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."<ref name="r14465342"/> Maddy Costa from ''[[The Guardian]]'' gave the album a mixed review: "This album's notion of femininity is hardcore feminist: 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."<ref name="costa"/> Alex Fletcher from [[Digital Spy]] was less impressed with the album: "Whether those who bought Anastacia's first three albums will be charmed by her fourth remains to be seen [...] For everyone else, however, Heavy Rotation will be too cringe-inducing to bear the repeated listens that its title promises."<ref name="Music - Album Review - Anastacia: 'Heavy Rotation'"/> The ''[[Daily Mirror]]'' called ''Heavy Rotation'' "A class act at the top of her game."<ref name="Anastacia - Heavy Rotation"/> The [[Australia]]n newspaper ''[[The Independent Weekly]]'' was also impressed with the album, giving it a favourable review: "Heavy Rotation is a triumphant return for an amazing artist who has travelled through pain to emerge stronger than ever before."<ref name="CD review - Heavy Rotation, Anastacia - Local News - News - Entertainment"/> [[BBC Online|BBC Music]] concluded about the album: "In summary: this is one happy Anastacia. Gone are the dark tracks of previous album Anastacia, replaced by soft ballads and upbeat disco stormers. Life on the sunny side is obviously doing her good, as is her partnership with Guy Chambers. Long may it continue – even, dare we say it, in heavy rotation".<ref name="Music - Review of Anastacia - Heavy Rotation"/> ==Singles== "[[I Can Feel You]]" was released as the album's lead single in October 2008. The music video was directed by Chris Applebaum and filmed in [[Los Angeles]]. In December 2008, the video for "I Can Feel You" ranked at #40 on ''[[VH1 Europe]]'''s "Final Countdown: 100 Best Videos of 2008".<ref name="VH1 European: Main Page"/> The second single, "[[Absolutely Positively]]", was confirmed by Anastacia on ''[[This Morning (TV series)|This Morning]]'' on Monday, November 3, 2008, and was subsequently released in February 2009. The video was shot in [[London]] and directed by [[Nigel Dick]], who also directed her videos for "[[I'm Outta Love]]" and "[[Cowboys & Kisses]]".
