Worth the wait!

"A fine follow-up to "Stylin' up", her superb 1995 debut. It was worth waiting for this one. Changing with the times, Anu introduced more pop influences into her sound, and the rap riffs of her first album are now replaced by dance. But the essentials are the same: spunky funk/pop (now more pop) based on the island/Aboriginal sounds of her Australian Torres Strait Island soul, rich rhythms, subtle arrangements. Some great songs there (Anu co-wrote most of them), and a truly great, silky voice. Exceptionally danceable. A very welcome inclusion of a new version of her 1995 hit "Island Home" as a bonus track. This is Christine Anu at her best yet. Highly recommended."
