TENSION FIRST LISTEN

[AGinAg (37)]

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Padam Padam.

Never heard this.

9.5/10

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I have literally only heard the singles.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Although I've seen a rubbish live clip of Hold On To Now

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Hold On To Now

On

Now

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh hi Robyn doing All the Lovers

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The Spotify visual

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Holy shit this is the living tits.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

28/10

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Already my most played song of the 21st century

 

[Eddie]

It sounds EXCEPTIONAL in HI-FIDELITY!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Things We Do For Love

Oh I know Kylie.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh God, this is really fucking good.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

As if an 80s As It Was/ Flowers pastiche wasn't going to be a box ticker 412/10

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Tension

Well it's a strong 4/4 so far. The promise!

 

[Eddie]

I love the little callback to the "HEY HEY" from Lost Without You.

 

[Eddie]

Tension somehow sounds even more glorious in the context of the album.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The vocals are the least nasal (and I say that with love) for a while.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Another 9.5/10

 

[AGinAg (37)]

115/10 so far overall.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

One More Time

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Well this is very *hands clap* Disco.

 

[straightorbroken]

I'm listening to Hold On To Now with nothing to hold onto or even a rolling pin to bite. Oh my ... KYLIE

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Which as an album I've really only come to appreciate fully very recently.

 

[Eddie]

I LOVE One More Time. Yes it sounds like it could have been on Disco but the production is SO LUSH!

 

[straightorbroken]

Hold On To Now. It's very CHICANE. Lisa Scott-Lee will be in bits.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The weakest so far, but she's having a lot of fun here 8.5/10

 

[Eddie]

The WhooooPPPP is BACK!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

You Still Get Me High

That you do QUEEN

 

[AGinAg (37)]

A ballad?

 

[straightorbroken]

02. HOTN.

The 2002 vibes are making me nostalgic for Tightrope. Love the sonic melancholia spiralling into just an echo. Loved this.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh no it's not! You big tease K!

 

[Eddie]

Oooh. You Still Get Me High is 80's movie soundtrack HEAVEN!

 

[straightorbroken]

03. Things We Do For Love

Early 90s power pop intro. Mid 80s power pop chorus. A kaleidoscope of Kylie. Wistful.

 

[Eddie]

This is a VERY tight album so far.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is really good too! The energy and the TASTE

 

[straightorbroken]

03. TWDFL

Will Garbrielle sue, that is the question!

 

[lolly]

I nodded off. Will do it tomorrow now as I won't be able to do it justice now.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Hands

 

[straightorbroken]

With Tension next (I'll be skipping), this is quite the opening salvo. All confident, soaring and adroit dance-pop nuggets so far.
