Kylie - X
Kylie Minogue's 10th long player, aptly titled X is a celebrated affair, her first record after recovery from breast cancer and reportedly her last album before retirement. There's a lot going on. Kylie delivers her best record since Fever. X is a pompous mixture of glam electronica and dance. The very Goldfrapp-meets-Blondie first single Two Hearts takes a slow but steady trip into your head with its "two hearts beating together...I'm in love...ooh" chorus. The One unabashedly pays tribute to 80's dance, Giorgio Moroder style. Sensitized and Stars sound like well-constructed continuation of Fever. All I See is probably the most telling tribute to Janet in the early 90's with its "get together-have fun-while-the-DJ-is-spinning-that-song" lyrics. That's also Speakerphone which I foresee would be used by one of the major phone manufacturers as their next funky ad tune.
Bonus tracks like Rippin' up the Dancefloor and White Diamond (Film Version) could have fitted on the main disc. Two excellent Mylo-produced tracks In The Mood for Love and Spell of Desire are mysteriously left out.
Well there's too much of X to write about, but the record moves fluidly from one track to another, creating a segue of great dance pop. The lyrics might just be inanely fun at times but then again, besides her shifting styles, that's one of Kylie's biggest assets.
[Special Edition includes snippets of White Diamond documentary with commentary and peek at several unreleased tracks.]
