Sobre el álbum
El segundo álbum de estudio, Freak of Nature, consolida y expande el sonido que tan buenos resultados le había dado a Anastacia en su debut. En este trabajo la cantante perfecciona su fórmula de "sprock", entregando una nueva colección de canciones que combinan la potencia del rock, la melodía del pop y el sentimiento del soul. De esta manera, el disco exhibe una mayor confianza y una producción más pulida, pero sin perder ni un ápice de la energía y la garra que la caracterizan.
El álbum está repleto de singles de éxito, como el desafiante "Paid My Dues" o la balada "One Day in Your Life", que demostraron su versatilidad como intérprete. "Freak of Nature" reafirmó su estatus de estrella en Europa y el resto del mundo, demostrando que su éxito no era casualidad. Es un trabajo sólido y coherente que muestra a una artista en pleno ascenso, con una voz y un estilo inconfundibles.

I'm a freak! Excuse me, What you said to me? Oh no, you didn't, No I'm not I'm sorry but, you know I ain't that kind of girl. Look at me and see a little girl inside my skin Is a supernatural, ooh!

I'm a little material, got bling bling My glasses got a shade, yeah! But there's a hippy chick in me That barefoot walking in the grass Just cause I like sipping on champagne, Doesn't mean that I'm afraid of the rain I'm about metaphysical not practical Not plan ahead baby If you open Pandora's box Prepare yourself 'cuz the world will be changing Aahhh!...
