Just Me is the fourth studio album by Australian superstar Tina Arena. Just Me is very much an album of its time. It not only captures Arena's newfound sense of purpose, but also delivers a sonic resonance that is sure to surprise those who had pigeonholed one of Australia's most successful musical exports as a 'big ballad singer'. "Soul Mate #9" is the first single, and it is an infectious slice of disco funk, and "Tangled" introduces lush middle-eastern-style strings to Arena's musical landscape, "Symphony Of Life" and "Woman" are exciting forays into a more electronic sound, challenging the likes of Dido, Madonna, Massive Attack and Chicane. "God Only Knows", on the other hand, provides a very filmic and orchestral interlude on the record.
