A second version of this album was released by 679 Recordings on 7th March 2005 in the UK. The same catalogue number and barcode were used, but some subtle changes were made to the design and layout of the inlay/ sleeve - the most obvious change being 'My Heartbeat' becoming just 'Heartbeat'. A slightly darker photo of Annie is also used and the 'ANNIE' logo on the front is slightly larger on the 2005 version.

This is a seriously brilliant pop album. Annie has a sweet voice and the music is well-produced. Album highlights include "Anniemal", "The Greatest Hit", "Chewing Gum", "Me Plus One" and "Heartbeat". In fact, almost the whole album is top notch pop - dont let the dismal "intro" track fool you into thinking its anything else.

Honestly, this is what pop is really meant to sound like. Thank goodness for artists like Annie.
