"Defeated" is the third and final single from American singer Anastacia's fourth studio album, Heavy Rotation. The single was released in May 2009 as a promotional single only, without a music video or physical single release. The R&B song was released to European radio on March 23, 2009. The song was written by Anastacia, J.R. Rotem and Damon Sharpe, and produced by J.R. Rotem.
Mirror.co.uk wrote that Anastacia delivers some "lyrical howlers." Alex Fletcher of Digital Spy wrote. "Lyrically, she never falters from her favourite subject of "standing up strong", even attempting to update 'I Will Survive' for the noughties on 'Defeated'. "You can say that you won but I'll never believe it," she roars. "I can't be defeated!""
