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

[COB]

This has such a DARK ENERGY

 

[COB]

Never enough!

 

[Jark]

Closer is such an almost song. Almost fabulous. Almost great. And yet... lacking.

It just never crescendos. Stuart Price's contributions to this album were quite the disappointment on balance.

11 All the Lovers
10 Get Outta My Way
07 Put Your Hands Up
07 Closer

 

[Iguana]

Closer is so mysterious and electro-sultry

@Jark can I claim "electro-sultry gem"?

 

[AlgoAlex]

@Alex walking into work

YES
I would literally SHOVE people out of the way too
Now i’d need a two metre long ruler

 

[Jark]

Closer is so mysterious and electro-sultry

@Jark can I claim "electro-sultry gem"?

Yes, but not for this.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Closer is fine but promises drama it doesn’t deliver.

 

[Eddie]

Closer is an interesting concept. But it bores me somewhat.

 

[COB]

Actually can't believe everybody isn't stanning Closer

 

[ZenGiraffe]

09 All The Lovers
12 Get Outta my Way
07 Put You Hands Up
09 Closer

Similar to what someone said earlier, this would have been a 12 in the hands of Kim Petras I am sure.

 

[COB]

Maybe I'm just EASILY PLEASED

 

[Iguana]

EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL​

[COB]

Loser is an interesting concept.

 

[Eddie]

It feels like Stuart Price sanitised her vocals on this record tbh.

 

[COB]

Everything is Beautiful is CUTE, but it's lacking something for me.

 

[Iguana]

Now this is my least favourite. I always thought it was a Nerina one but I don't think it is!

[Eddie]

Everything is Beautiful is CUTE, but it's lacking something for me.

Like practically EVERY OTHER SONG on this album.

 

[AlgoAlex]

I love the weird sort of electro harpsichord and her sighs in the chorus. Closer...AHHH
It just doesn’t really GO anywhere.

[Tisch]

Everything Is Beautiful is a bit of a dud. PLODDY. Sorry Kylie Ann.

 

[Jark]

I enjoy Everything Is Beautiful very much. Quite an underrated Kylie song actually. This is a Tim Rice-Oxley co-write, oui?

A tasteful, luxurious midtempo with just the requisite SWIRL. It's a nice, leisurely trip through the stars. She sounds great.

11 All the Lovers
10 Get Outta My Way
07 Put Your Hands Up
07 Closer
08 Everything Is Beautiful

 

[BoysForSeles]

It’s not Nerina no. It’s inoffensive but the album wouldn’t miss it.

 

[COB]

Like practically EVERY OTHER SONG on this album.

Dont quote my posts

 

[Eddie]

Can someone wake me up when Everything Is Beautiful is over please.

 

[COB]

(only joking @Eddie )

 

[AlgoAlex]

EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL​

HATE IT.
So TWEE

APHRODITE​

 

[BoysForSeles]

It was one of Keane who wrote it, this is Nerina.

I love a bit of Aphrodite, I don't care that it's probably a bit NAFF.

 

[Iguana]

This one has always been a fave, it's a bit cheesy but the chorus kicks!

 

[Eddie]

Finally a bit of a reprieve from automatonKylie.

 

[Tisch]

Oh the DRUNMS on Aphrodite. Never quite realised how jungly they are.

Love this. Can definitely hear Nerina singing it (this is one of hers right?)

 

[Iguana]

It has a cheerleader quality in the verse

 

[COB]

It's the truth, it's a fact
I was gone and now I'm BACK, YEAH

 

[BoysForSeles]

Oh the DRUNMS on Aphrodite. Never quite realised how jungly they are.

Love this. Can definitely hear Nerina singing it (this is one of hers right?)

I totally can hear Nerina doing this circa ‘The Graduate’ album.

 

[COB]

Gonna feel your heart stop
IN. MY. HANDS.
