Kylie Minogue – Kiss Me Once

“Once that reaches the chorus, it’s lovely.”

Tim: “Pull the other one, it’s got bells on,” they say about legs, and now they should say it about songs off Kylie’s new album.

Tom: Ha! That took me a couple of seconds.

Tim: In particular, the title track, which this is, and it’s vastly better than Sexercise, the video she put out the other day which is everything that’s wrong with music videos today.

Tom: Oh, once that reaches the chorus, it’s lovely.

Tim: Yes, it’s really very good indeed, you see, and while it’s fair to say it’s not particularly ‘2014’ (see Sexercise for that), it’s also entirely fair to say this is a wonderful track that has Kylie stamped all over it, and that’s good enough for me.

Tom: Agreed: she’s got a distinctive voice and sound, and this is a good use of them.

Tim: It’s a little bit more grown up than yesterday’s kissing song, with lines like “we’ve got some loving to do” and “come up for air”, though you might expect that given that she’s about three times their average age BUT ANYWAY. I could listen to this a lot of times (and in fact have done), because it’s great, bells and all.
