The artist followed with another single, "The Machine's Breaking Down", in July 1990, which peaked in the top 30. Her debut solo album, "Strong as Steel", was released in October, and peaked at number 17 on the ARIA Albums Chart. Most of the album was produced by Ross Inglis. Penelope Layland of "The Canberra Times" opined that "the frantic single, "I Need Your Body", is quite uncharacteristic of much of the music on Tina Arena's album, "Strong As Steel". In fact it is one of the weakest tracks on an album which bounces with potential pop hits."
