Sunshine At Midnight
''Sunshine at Midnight'' is the second studio album by American singer Sunshine Anderson. It was released in the United States by Music World Entertainment on January 23, 2007. Critical reception AllMusic wrote that Anderson's "second album, imaginatively produced with a wide range of hip, grainy-sounding beats, deals with the tough realities of relationships, in songs as varied as the grittily realistic "Problems," "Switch It Up," superficially about romance gone stale but more concerned with turning a life around, and the galumphing "Trust," whose mutant beat buffers a tale of deceit. Anderson never leaves any doubt who's in control, though she can still turn on the erotic softness in silk-sheet jams like "Force of Nature"." Track listing Sample credits * "Something I Wanna Give You" contains a sample of "I Want to Pay You Back (For Loving Me)", as performed by The Chi-Lites * "My Whole Life" contains a sample of "Back Against the Wall", as performed by Curtis Mayfield Perso ...
