Kylie Minogue - 'Tension'


Recommended Posts

Posted

Things We Do For Love is the best album track and the only choice for the next single. It’s so euphoric! And you can dance to it.

 

Vegas High is not it for me since the 1st listen. The I-I-I-I repetitions are irritating. Sounds like a Disco reject but not a good one. Will age terribly. Next.

New debuts

 

#2 in Spain

#9 in Austria

#21 in the US (with more units than Aphrodite which peaked at #19)

#23 in Canada

#31 in Denmark

#100 in the Czech Republic

 

I think a top 10 US debut for her next release could be feasible in a quiet week. Her presence there seems to be growing expeditiously.

What an experience while listening to this album! :jonny:

My favorite non singles are: Just Imagine (so underrated, that production combined with vocals ATE), Love TrainSomebody To Love and Hold On To Now (obvious next single).

Spoiler

P.S.: I love 10 out of 10 too lol :-*

The signed deluxe cd she was selling last week finally arrived.

 

And to my surprise, it wasn't a signed insert. She signed the actual cover.

If you love Things We Do For Love you gonna adore both Unlimited Love and When You Love Someone. If they ever see the light of the day and would be reconsidered as songs for the new edition of Tension in the future.

Damn, my signed one from Newbury was an insert. Annoying that she used a black sharpie and signed on her hairline, you can barely see it. Silver would’ve been better

 

Also, not to compare two bad b*tches but Disco is more cohesive, while I think Tension is much more fun? Both are still career highlights though. Happy she’s releasing fantastic albums this late into her career and still doing great commercially

She'll be out of the top 200 next week almost for sure tbh.

Gave this another listen and it didn't grow on me. Should i give up and listen to her old albums until she'll release her next records or will it grow on me eventually?

it depends on what type of music you like, if you're a fan... i pretty much disliked one more time & things we do for love but they have grown on me and i don't skip a single song .. the way 8.5 out of 10 fits the album so well i started liking it now :toofunny3: so some songs are definitely growers.

 

Body, ten
Touch, ten
Energy, ten
Ten out of ten

On the first 2-3 listens I was kind of underwhelmed and I consider myself a hardcore fan. Then it all clicked and I’ve been obsessed since, I still don’t think it’s her best, but it’s a lot of fun with insane replay value. :katie2:

 

I guess on initial listens I was expecting something else after Golden and Disco which both stuck to a theme or a specific sound, also Padam Padam and the title track were a bit misleading in terms of the album’s vibe (although now I don’t mind at all that it’s so diverse).

so which ones are DISCO scraps?

I don’t understand why people hate 10 so much. It’s a harmless bop. Yeah, Kylie is featured on someone else’s song but she still sings like 95% of it.
