The sampler is horrible. This is worse than Britney Jean. |

I've listened to it a few times now and it actually gets *worse* with every listen. It sounds like a collection of rejects from every album of hers from the past decade. Rarely have I heard such a collection of cheap-sounding, throwaway songs. |

anyways, here's what i think of the sampler first of all, it appearing a whole month before the album release date is a bit strange. also considering numerous reviews are now being revealed, it's only a matter of a short time before the entire album leaks. i thought they'd be doing a better job at keeping it under wraps for a little longer. i'm not going to judge this album plainly on snippets. i did so with aphrodite, which at first thought it sounded tremendous, but then i had to eat my words when hearing it as a whole. just a few remarks: great production overall. her vocals have been handled exceptionally, too, she sounds way more invested and human like when compared to some of her current sets, especially x and aphrodite the album's cohesive without adopting the cynical approach of aphrodite or the amateurish naivity of body language (mind u, the latter still being one of my fave kylie albums, but still...) i might be listening to a different sampler, cause the vast majority of those snippets sound really promising. they're mostly rnb influenced yet distinctively kylie pop tracks. it feels like a fresh sound to her, the kind of music she should have stepped to years ago, a very welcome progression that sets both the expectations of her pop legacy and the need for herself to mature into a fitting place. songs i'm eager for: i was gonna cancel, feels so good, les sex and fine. the chorus of kiss me once is one of the best kylie moments ever, also beautiful may not be that bad of an idea to get the single treatment, however not during summertime. |

I pretty much disagree 100% with every single word of that.

well, each to his own. i'm just relieved she's making an effort not to pigeonhole herself any longer and take some tiny risks. aphrodite did turn her to a gay niche artist and she's now attempting to win back a wider audience that were once rooting for her. she's not selling out by any means, the kylie dna is still apparent throughout the set. shall we just wait till we get to hear the songs properly before we pass any judgement. if anything, deep down we all know this album will be far more enjoyable than whatever today's hot pop girls have been flogging in the past few months. |

I hope you're not including ARTPOP in that. It shits all over this fluff from a great height. |

obviously i'm not including gaga. i was implying the likes of katy, britney, miley (pop album of last year MY ARSE) and the rest of that gang. we've said this before. like her or not, kylie's incapable of coming up with a bad album. underwhelming, yes. awful, not in a million years, though. |

Oh that is *grim*. I actually had to turn it off halfway through, I was cringing so much. I really hope she's being paid a helluva lot of cash for doing this kind of shit. |

So, you're all saying that the single is the best track on it? Well, I don't think I'll be bothering my ears with it. |

I just love how her loons see this as "being genuinely nice to her fans" and "very down-to-earth".

that was quite cringe worthy, i agree. i guess it was part of her obligations teaming up with mastercard. she's always genuinely nice to the fans but i'm sure she just hated doing this. |

A star of her calibre and longevity should never stoop to doing that kind of thing. It's so, so beneath her. |

i'd say there are far more interesting and daring tracks on it than the single. think of it as the best elements off her past three albums picked and blended into one set. don't mind riv and the rest, i bet they're gonna attempt a u turn rather soon |

Just substitute "worst" for "best" and I'll be happy to go along with that. |
