"Louise is a British pop tart. Simply put, she crafts enjoyable pop tunes and does it well, especially on this sophmore solo release. This album yielded three UK top twenty singles in "Arms Around The World", "Let's Go Round Again", and "All That Matters". The former two proceeded to the top ten singles, though the ballad "Matters" stalled at a respectable number 11. "Arms" was the biggest hit off the album, a Janet Jackson "Runaway" sound alike, it peaked at number 4, followed by a cover of the disco tune "Let's Go Round Again", which just made it into the top 10. Personally, it's one of my favorite Louise songs, and definitely my favorite single of hers. The album tracks are pure pop in nature, the best being able to make you get up and want to dance. These include "Don't Be Shy", "Shut Up & Kiss Me", the Motown-esque "Running Back For More", and the admittedly cheesy but still fun "Happy Love". A great album for fans of pure pop, pick up a copy of "Woman In Me", you honestly won't be disapointed."
