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.

The album failed to match the commercial success of its predecessors, struggling in the music charts and regarded as 'chasing sales' by Anastacia's label in an attempt to achieve a successful comeback. 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's online "Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums of 2008".
