Hey everyone, sorry about the lack of updates...but I have been out of the state for a while (getting my GTL done ...okay maybe not). This summer Poutz and I have been really slow on the updates and uptake and for that, we are sorry, so in fall we will definitely make it up to our loyal readers.
With that said, let's get onto some shennantics!
A music review if you will. We're going headfirst.
Everyone's favorite pint-sized disco diva and real life Tinkerbell, Kylie Minogue has released her 11th album the appropo "Aphrodite" (yes named after the Greek Goddess of love and beauty). It's funny because I do think of Minogue as a modern Aphrodite, her albums are almost always about love and beauty and she just radiates a charm about her that almost everyone loves Kylie and if you don't...hmmm.
On "Aphrodite," Minogue returns to her careless euro-pop that made her basically well an icon. She could have went the Gaga route and did some really stealthy electro-pop but no, she returns to "fluff" and no one does fluff sincerely or beautifully like Minogue. In fact if anyone else recorded her songs, they would come off as cheesy but with Minogue's signature light-as-a-feather purrs and coos...it's hard not to like her or the music.
The lead single "All the Lovers," is quite catchy and has been stuck in my head since I heard it back in May. Elsewhere on the album, Minogue doesn't really do downtempo but songs like "Cupid Boy," "Get Outta My Way," and "Closer" are definitely highlights.
Since it's summer, why not listen to something the equivalent of Beach cotton candy.
