This is a big one?

I don't see it for her, but okay.

For quite a few fans on here it's untouchable. It finished at #7 (I recall?) in the PWL rate.

Enjoy Yourself 7.68



Highest Score: 10 x 11 @WhatKindOfKylie?, @m_dimitrov, @Hudweiser, @mrdonut, @Andsov, @VeryPSB, @IntoTheBlue, @SophiaSophia, @Ana Raquel, @Remorque, @Gnuh Gnuh
Lowest Score: 0 x 1 @SlowGinFizzzz





@Hudweiser - 10 A 10 is probably a wee bit generous as it sounds a bit tinny now, but imagine this properly remixed, given a really thick throb of a dance beat... homosexuals across the continent would be left bald.
@Andsov - 10 Such a refreshing sound for her back then. I also think it's a departure for PWL, it just sounds rich.
@mrdonut - 10 Wooo! Absolutely killer album track that should be performed on tour SO much more often. When Rufus Wainwright said Kylie is gay shorthand for joy, I suspect he was listening to this. Wooo!





@nanafan - 9.5 Euphoric and energetic. A shame there isn’t an extended version of this.
@Untouchable Ace - 9.5 The beginning of amazing title tracks.
@hawkings24 - 9 The single that never was, Pete Waterman was wrong to veto this as a single release.
@Ugly Beauty - 9 it's enjoy-enjoy-enjoyable.





@CasperFan - 8.5 A sign of the dancier sound to come- wasn’t really a favourite at the time but I’ve grown to love and appreciate it over time. Perfect closing track to the anti-tour.
@Epic Chocolat 8 - Clear message, straight to the point.
@MrJames - 7 This album is half bops and half absolute turds. Thank God we end on a high note.





@Maki - 7 Okay, the production feels much more accomplished here. The beat is very good and very 80's, too; I groove to it a bit. The chorus is my favourite part and those synths are a great addition. Still, the song isn't a standout by any means.
@M24 - 2.5 The lyrics are cute, and even with the basic melody, I kinda enjoy it? Too bad there's just much better material so I can't give this more than a 2.5.

"What Kind of Fool (Heard All That Before)" isn't that much of a shock elimination, even though it reached top 10 in the PWL rate. I agree that it seems like a step backwards, as it tries to replicate her previous bigger hits.
There are obviously some weaker songs that it still around, but I'm not mad about it's departure at all, and even think I overscored it by that 8.

On the other hand, "Enjoy Yourself" totally exceeded my expectations - I had no idea it is so loved. It's obviously one of the better album tracks from her earlier albums, and it's a good song, but I'm obviously missing out on something, since it literally sounds like a filler and nothing essential to me by any means.

And this is hilarious:
@Verandi - 0 What Kind Of Nightmare (Shoulda Binned It All Before). Imagine finally coming close to quality with Finer Feelings and then dropping this turd. I get she was forced by the label so I'll let ha breathe, especially because listening to Confide In Me after this gives me an orgasms.
Always coming up with different ways of shading the songs based on their title.

@Untouchable Ace - 10 Ethereal.
@hawkings24 - 10 This is such an unreal song.
@mrdonut - 9.5 Manages to pull off bringing back elements of Impossible Princess on an electro/funk/R&B album. A feat.
@Verandi - 7.5 The sole worthy song from the last stretch of the album.
@M24 - 5 Very dark and atmospheric but I feel she's done that better.
@Andsov - 4 The lyrics are so, so naff.
@CasperFan - 4 This one seems to get a lot of adulation but I never understood why? It’s just dull really. I’m still waiting to one day suddenly get it but no…
@nanafan - 4 Goes on a bit.

I've always found Loving Days to be a bit limp - the melody is lovely but it's let down by the production for me (it just seems to trundle on and on)
 
I love Loving Days. For me it sits alongside tracks like Fragile, Sleeping with the Enemy, Tightrope etc and I love that style for Kylie. I would have preferred it to have lasted a while longer.

I don’t care much for any of the Greatest Hits tracks so am glad to see the back of What Kind of Fool.
 
he / him
"Loving Days" should've been the last Body Language album track left in the rate, not "Secret (Take You Home)." The former has aged a lot better than the latter, which was a bop back in 2003, but not something that I'd listen to today.

"Enjoy Yourself" is cute and would've made for a cute 80's single for Kylie in place of "Tears On My Pillow."

Music's Too Sad Without You (With Jack Savoretti) 7.7



Highest Score: 10 x 7 @WhatKindOfKylie?, @SinceYouTookYourPopAway, @clowezra,
@maverick_79, @DJHazey, @abael, @Crisp X
Lowest Score: 1 x 1 @Hurricane Drunk









@mrdonut - 9 Exquisite.
@Maki- 8.5 Finally, something worthy of a score higher than an 8. This is low-key the saving grace of this album, even though it's not perfect. The chorus is gorgeous, and so is the middle-8, and Kylie's vocals are at her best here. I don't mind the male feature, either, especially because their voices go well together. The atmosphere helps, too. Samuel Dixon really brought his magic here. Lovely way to end this underwhelming album.
@nanafan - 7.5 Great duet, the single mix elevates it. Shame it didn't get more impact when released.
@Andsov - 7 This song ticks all the boxes for me, but I stop listening after a while so it obviously doesn't quite hit the spot. Stunning vocals.
@Untouchable Ace - 6.5 I only like her backing vocals.
@M24 - 6 It's a tough one to rate. It's enjoyable, even if it doesn't have much of a strong melody.
