Kylie - Tension II (Album XVIb)

Dang it. She's probably too far in front for them to do a cheap digital.

I'll just need to wait until the CD is a fiver in HMV's post-Christmas sale.
The extended versions album (which includes the standard version) is £5.99 on her webstore.

I haven't got myself over the line to buy it yet though. Better make my mind up as it's only available until the end of Thursday.

Ahhh, so that's what we're getting this time. Thank you!
 
If I felt like the extended versions would actually do the job of making them sound more like complete songs I'd happily part with £5.99 but I'd imagine it'll just be some dragged out intros and outros and pointless meandering that kills the pace in the middle.

Apparently the only good one is Good As Gone. I can wait until it reaches streaming. I don't understand why they can't create the mixes at the time of recording and have to keep going back to Guy Massey. He has a very obvious sonic signature.

it's just to give you additional material to complain about
 
I hate having downloads sat on my hard drive, but I'm going to plump for the extended versions anyway as it's only £6. I'd rather that than multiple physical versions gathering dust on the shelf.
 
I got shades on my face and I'm looking like Kylie @ Specsavers

Really missed an opportunity for some brand #synergy there Kylie.
Y'know after Fine Wine and Vegas High I wouldn't have put it past her!
 
I've just listened to it.

I'll take it as a companion piece, and perhaps should be judging it as that, but overall I'm underwhelmed. I can't say a single track made me think I couldn't wait to listen to it again, although I didn't dislike anything either. It all just kind of flowed past pleasantly and predictably.

3/5. Or perhaps 3.5/5 if I'm feeling generous.
 
Hello is probably my least favourite of the lot after that one listen. Mildly irritating.
 
I want to wait a week before rating each track but the first 5 songs just edge the opening 5 on Tension for me.

I enjoy Diamonds but if Hello was in it's place, that would be an amazing run and would knock this album out of the park for me.

Dance To The Music is by far the weakest song of the lot (though not terrible) but the tone of the song feels so out of place.
 
Well, it's an amazing track.
I hope we also get a video for it.
And then "Diamonds".
