Oury and William H. Hardy. Curtis Coe Bean announced his intention to run but withdrew to look after his business interests. During the race, the territorial newspapers expected the incumbent to win reelection. When the election results were being totaled, the Yavapai County Board of Supervisors, in a 2–1 decision, attempted to disqualify 168 votes for Stevens on the grounds that they came from two towns where 	Hiram Sanford Stevens

This was done despite the tax not being due till December 31 and the board's decision to accept the votes from several other towns with similar circumstances but that had voted for a different candidate. A provision in territorial law required the Territorial Secretary to accept the vote canvas provided by the County Recorder thwarted the board's efforts and resulted in Stevens winning a plurality of the vote. Final results were 1,194 for Stevens, 1,049 for Hardy, and 1,007 for Oury. The 45th United States Congress saw Stevens introduce several new 	Hiram Sanford Stevens

Recording. "Hide Your Heart" was recorded at the Bearsville Studios in Woodstock, New York. Desmond Child had received a budget from CBS Records to write and produce three songs for Tyler's next album. Within a few days, they recorded an entire album on that budget. "I begged the musicians to stay overtime," Child recalled in a  2013 interview. Bass guitarist Seth Glassman and lead guitarist John McCurry swapped instruments to record "Turtle Blues", which was not planned to feature on the album. The song was recorded at 2 a.m. after a jamming session. McCurry overdubbed the guitar solo after the song was recorded. "Turtle Blues" was originally written and recorded by Janis Joplin for her 1968 album "Cheap Thrills" with Big Brother and the Holding Company. Tyler recorded her vocals in the same booth as Joplin's original version. Additional recording took place at The Hit Factory and Right Track in New York City. Critical reception . "Hide Your Heart" received generally positive reviews from music critics. It was listed as an Album of the Week in "Music & Media", who wrote "with her powerful, raucous voice, the British rock singer delivers a pleasant album full of hook-heavy material, pompous build-ups and dramatic grooves." Mario Tarradell of "The Miami News" described Tyler as "revitalized" after her work with Jim Steinman. He noted Tyler's cover of Janis Joplin's song "Turtle Blues" as the album highlight, stating, "Tyler captures the jazzy raspiness and riveting intensity characteristic of Joplin's style and adds her own theatrics to  create an impressive homage to the late singer." Tarradell added that Tyler "isn't always blessed with the best material and has been a victim of a roller-coaster career," but described the album as an "impressive return" to rock music. Curt Anderson of "Bangor Daily News" agreed that "Turtle Blues" is the album highlight, and "stands head and shoulders above the rest [of the tracks]." He also opined that Tyler's cover of "To Love Somebody" is "better than the original." He did argue, however, that the album is over-produced, saying that the core of "Don't Turn  Around" gets "lost in a tidal wave of sound" as the choir enters. He concluded, saying that the track "Notes from America" sounds "like much of the commercial rock 'n' roll on the radio," and that "it's a shame [Tyler] isn't singing more memorable music." Single releases. Tyler's first single from the album was "The Best", which was the best performing single, reaching #10 in Norway and Portugal, #20 in Spain and #95 in the UK. Other singles included "Hide Your Heart", "Save Up All Your Tears", "Don't Turn Around", and the U.S. title track "Notes  From America".
