Fever - Kylie Minogue

Fever is Arguably Kylie Minogue's best album to date. Pure pop, dancey tracks is what she does best. With the massive smash hit Cant Get You Out Of My Head (written by Cathy Dennis) leading the album and topping the charts for 4 weeks in the UK, it was the perfect start for an incredible album, which went on to top the UK album chart for a number of weeks. Fever reached number one on the Australian and most European charts and sold 1 million copies in the United Kingdom alone. To-date the album has sold six million copies worldwide and broke into the US Billboard top 100 at number 3, her highest ever US chart position. And it's not hard to see ...  Read the complete review

Proving once again that quality doesn't always neccessarily associate itself with popularity, Kylie Minogue's 8th studio album Fever came hot on the heals of a mini-revival of Kylie's career. A moderately successful album in 2000, and a sell out auditorium tour early in 2001 meant that Kylie Co. should quickly build on that momentum. Things quickly took on a life of their own. Fever was a perfectly apt title, as Kyliefever really did sweep the world for a bit. The album became the biggest selling of her adult career (only debut album Kylie sold more), gave her a huge hit in America, spawned the biggest selling single of her career, and kickstarted an ...  Read the complete review

?Fever? is unquestionably an album which is aimed at your Saturday nightclub attendee. With monotonous beats and a a whole host of synthesised electronic blips and whirring it is always going to appeal to those peeps that like to get up and dance. But for me Kylie?s music is lazy and half-arsed. It?s music made by a bludger(2 - See footnote), who knows her records will sell on reputation alone. For the most part I can?t really tell where one song ends and another begins. When I listen to this album all I hear is forty or so minutes of half-baked beats and synthesised rhythms. I really cannot see the appeal of this album ...  Read the complete review

I have to admit I am not really a Kylie Minogue fan, actually I wasn’t but I am now. Firstly Kylie never ever appealed to me, I thought her music was just too disco but now that she has added that dance element to her music it has definitely appealed to me. I purchased her album myself after hearing several of her songs in a friend’s car. For an artist who’s been around as long as Kylie it’s pretty tough to stay in with the latest sounds but somehow Kylie has continued to keep her sound fresh. After a period of time Kylie became very unpopular. Personally I would not have been caught dead listening to a Kylie track three years ...  Read the complete review

What to do when you're an international superstar whose most creative album to date flops hard? Turn to disco, make yourself a household name again. What to do when your comeback album is a triumphant success? Sex yourself up! Perhaps that was the train of thought which passed through miss Minogue's mind when she set out recording her eight studio album Fever. It's clear from the very first view of the video for Can't Get You Out Of My Head that this new, improved pint-sized pop princess was here to stay and intending to get the nation hooked, be it bopping teenagers, an army of gays or drooling dads. Can the music live up to the image? It's a promising start. ...  Read the complete review
