After 7 years and 2 albums at British indie label DeConstruction, Kylie exploded back onto the pop scene with a perfect bum and pair of gold hotpants to rocket to number 1 with Spinning Around (written by Paula Abdul), a camp disco track that set the tone for what was to follow. Minogue's stiletto disco heel struck pop oil with the following single, the sexy, sultry 'On a Night like this', before Kylie proved she was back doing what she does best with the camp pop classic that is Light Years. Packed full of fun, dancy pop tunes and some thumping disco beats, Light Years is guranteed to fill a dancefloor with its high tempo camp classics. A masterful blend of ...  Read the complete review

Very occasionally, Kylie Minogue comes up with an album that isn't half made up of brilliant singles and half made up of B-side fodder. The most ironic thing is that she is at her best when writing and contributing to her own material, whilst being most recognised for allowing others to write her songs. Light Years was the first of a new era for Kylie, after her daliance with chic pop went a bit awry. And whilst its back to basics, its isn't neccessarily a step back. The album is as polished and varied as an album could be, producing at least 9 potential singles. Even the inclusion of a hidden track called Password shows a confidence in the material on ...  Read the complete review

La-la-la la-la-la-la-la... For some reason, the press credits the Kylie revival to her most recent release 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' and the #1 album 'Fever'. Although 'Can't...' was her biggest selling hit single ever, it was arguably 'Light Years' which propelled Kylie back from obscurity into the public consciousness. Spawning 4 Top 10 hits, and a #1, it was a return to form following her unsuccessful dabble with indie. The album opener is the stunning 'Spinning Around'. Her first #1 since 'Hand On Your Heart' (back in 1990, pop-pickers!), it was her poppiest song since she was still ...  Read the complete review

Pop-tastic The Queen of Pop, aka Kylie Minogue. Love her or loathe her, you have to admit she has staying power. She has been in the music industry for well over 20 years now and has had some amazing pop hits. Light Years by Kylie was released in 2000 and is a fabulous pop album that has brought out some of Kylie's greatest hits in my opinion and shows she is back to her best. Is is viewed by many as her comeback album as it saw her return to her pop roots and to the top of the charts. THe album is Kylie's seventh album and it reached number two in the United Kingdom and one on the Australian album charts. According to an article I read the album ...  Read the complete review

Kylie has always been regarded as a rather second-rate Madonna. After hearing this album it should be clear to most that she needs no comparisons, she is just KYLIE! After the relative failure of her previous indie/rock-chick phase, Kylie knew it was back to the drawing board, and indeed back to her roots. The music on this album is almost purely disco-pop- Kylie doing what she does best. Most peolpe will be familiar with the hits from this album- " Spinnig Around", her comeback no.1 stomper, "On a Night Like This", slightly smoother than the previous track it's still ideal for shaking your butt to. Other than these ...  Read the complete review
