Kylie Minogue – Kiss Me Once
As a pop star who’s been top of her game since the late ’80s, you might wonder when Kylie will run out of steam. Not anytime soon if Kiss Me Once is a good indication.
A glossy confection of pop goodness, her twelfth studio album sounds as ‘now’ as anything else in the charts – yet it’s still unmistakably Kylie.
Highlights include the string-laden single Into The Blue, the glittering title track (written by fellow Aussie pop icon Sia), and the minimalist, vocodered duet with Enrique Iglesias, Beautiful. The less said about Sexercize, the better.
Her strongest album since Fever. (PH)
