This article is about the 1969 Sandie Shaw album "Reviewing the Situation". For the song of the same name from the musical Oliver!, see Reviewing the Situation (from Oliver!).

Reviewing the Situation is the fifth original album by 1960s British girl singer Sandie Shaw. Released in late 1969 by Pye Records, it contained material very different from that which pop-lovers were accustomed to hearing from Shaw. This was Shaw's first time producing an album herself and she chose to cover songs made popular by more alternative artists who she felt had had a big impact on the music of the 1960s. Her version of Led Zeppelin's "Your Time Is Gonna Come" made her the first known artist to cover a song by them. She has stated that this is her favourite album with the exception of Hello Angel.
