Kylie Minogue

Aphrodite EMI/Astralwerks [Three stars]

Published by

According to mythology, Greek sex goddess Aphrodite rose out of the sea. But Australian sex goddess Kylie Minogue rose out of the Eighties, an even more mysterious and frightening place, and she’s been one of the planet’s favourite club divas ever since. Aphrodite is her finest work since 1997’s underrated Impossible Princess, teaming her with Madonna producer Stuart Price. These days Minogue has countless hipster club kids on her gilded jock, from La Roux to Gaga, but ”˜Get Outta My Way’ shows why she’s still the leader, chirping, “This is what’ll happen if you ain’t giving your girl what she needs.” Consider yourself warned.

Key Tracks: ”˜All the Lovers,’ ’Get Outta My Way’
