Kylie Minogue - Tension II

[Rhodanthe]

Alok posted a new clip of Last Night I Dreamt I Fell In Love (9th slide).

The hook (or the lack of it) is abysmal.

Yeah, that clip isn’t really filling me with much excitement in all honesty. I always try to keep my expectations at a certain level but by the sounds of that clip i don’t think it’ll be up to much, i do hope i am wrong though.

I'm sorry but Kylie gave y'all an entire album of glorified demos and b-sides and you all keep moaning every single week that the collaboration tracks are somehow the ones that are beneath her. I think you should worry more about the quality of her solo tracks girls... 'My Oh My', 'Edge' and 'Midnight Ride' are bops and I can't wait to hear them on the tour x.

I've read this critique a couple of times and I can understand a couple of tracks falling into this category, but otherwise no. I mean a few of the songs were originally going to be packaged up with Tension in a deluxe reissue so you could say they were "bonus tracks", maybe? Hmmm

This is so underwhelming.

This is so underwhelming.

It's...a LQ 15 second clip.

It's...a LQ 15 second clip.

Can't really argue with that.

It sounds like it's going to be LQ regardless of the bitrate.

 

[KingFry]

This is so underwhelming.

Keep it

The São Paulo concert aside, I think we have nothing to fear that this Alok song will be performed!

Here's hoping ...

I'll hold off judging until I've heard it in full, but it fits in with this Tension II era.

 

[LoveMachine]

It's LQ alright. And it's 15 seconds. The full thing will probably be 2:17 and it will not be good.

I know we've been yearning for her to branch out but looking back on Tension II... as fun as it was for like 10 seconds, I would actually prefer her tried and trusted KylieTM formula which gave us 11/10s like Say Something and Things We Do For Love.

Good As Gone and Someone For Me are genuinely great though.

 

[V3RYP05H]

“Kiss Bang Bang” is one of her club boppiest album tracks in a long time, and “Taboo” is great neu-disco track. (I love “Hello” too but that’s the most blatant “Padam” clone.)

The worst thing about T2 was that it was tailor made for the TikTok streams. The extended versions being one week only store exclusive is baffling though.

Good As Gone and Someone For Me are genuinely great though.

Good As Gone is ok and if it had been slightly beefed up - in length, in production - it would have been a very good track.

 

[maverick_79]

What is this cover though??

They are so cute, can't wait!

The clip doesn't inspire much hope in me but again - good for her for getting out there, working with new talent, and building her streaming presence between albums. It's the way the game is played these days.
