Relisten #6: Aphrodite & Kiss Me Once (TONIGHT! 01/11/20 at 7:30pm)

[COB]

Love Les Sex AND Kiss Me Once.

The album is quite BOTTOM HEAVY

So's this thread, etc etc

 

[BoysForSeles]

He sounds like a loser, sorry :emoji_eyes:

Haha, we were just together far too long.

 

[Eddie]

Ok Beautiful is an auto tuned disappointment.

 

[Jark]

I know people hate that her voice is drenched in vocoder but some of her high harmonies on #Beautiful (lol) are fragile and exquisite. And personally speaking I actually love the vocoder a lot, and think Beautiful is a pretty great song. so SHOVE THAT UP YER!

07 I Was Gonna Jancel
07 Sexy Love
05 Sexercize
10 Feels So Good

[Eddie]

I mean their voices do actually work terrifically well together.

 

[Iguana]

Ok Beautiful is an auto tuned disappointment.

The autotune is quite the CHOICE

I would say it’s Enrique who gets the raw end of the deal vocoder wise.

FINE​

 

[BoysForSeles]

I know it’s not a general fave but I love the nod to 90s dance on Fine. It’s one of my three faves here.

 

[Iguana]

Fine's chorus has such a great tune. It's intoxicating

 

[Iguana]

It just doesn't feel like a closer to me

[Jark]

Fine is a really bangin' closer. Again, it's like what Closer was trying to do on X but executed much better. It really FIZZES ALONG and I am notoriously a SLUT for some pitched n' spliced 90s house vocal samples.

Track two would’ve been better with Million Miles tagged on elsewhere.

 

[Jark]

I am actually quite severely GOOPED at how much I enjoyed Kiss Me Once tonight. Time has been very kind to it - I no longer think of it as the ugly stepsister. In fact, I'm ready to declare it a better record than Aphrodite. I do love an underdog.

For anyone who can bear it, here's Mr President.

 

[Jark]

Who IS the male vocalist on Fine??

It's Kylie herself beb!

 

[Iguana]

For anyone who can bear it, here's Mr President.

JUST DON'T THINK ABOUT TRUMP

 

[Beverley]

KMO is SUPERLATIVE
BEAUTIFUL IS OK
FINE IS SOOOOOOO FUCKING GOOOOOOOOD!

 

[Eddie]

For anyone who can bear it, here's Mr President.

 

[BoysForSeles]

KMO is pretty good but feels like it’s a case of here’s 22 songs that have come in for you, hurry up and pick 12 you like.

 

[Eddie]

I bet @ZenGiraffe will love Mr President.

it def has a bit of that pic n' mix energy but on the whole I do think it succeeds at almost every turn. only Sexercize should've been swapped for the divinely sultry Sleeping With The Enemy.

 

[Eddie]

So while I have the attention of all you Lovers can I ask for a HUGE FAVOUR PLEASE....

 

[Eddie]

08 Mr President

 

[Iguana]

Sleeping With The Enemy

 

[ZenGiraffe]

For anyone who can bear it, here's Mr President.

13 Mr President

Best one tonight.

I bet @ZenGiraffe will love Mr President.

I think I've been clocked.

 

[Eddie]

I know you like the back of my hand @ZenGiraffe

 

[Iguana]

Thanks everyone for joining, I've really enjoyed hearing all your thoughts and I THINK everyone enjoyed these albums a little more than they expected to!

 

[Eddie]

So while I have the attention of all you Lovers can I ask for a HUGE FAVOUR PLEASE....

HELLO!!!

Did anyone see this?
