Body Language - Kylie Minogue

For Kylie Minogue, each new album brings a new direction. Its the main thing that prevents her from becoming stale. Her voice is nothing outstanding, and she's neither controversial nor outspoken. Most of her lyrics are contributions from men who want to use her as a muse for their work, and she quite happily smiles at the compliment whilst reaping the rewards of their toil.

It's a slice of sexy electronica with swirling synths, plenty of classic Kylie sass as she ...  Read the complete review
