Everyone ever should be talking about how great this Dannii Minogue album is.

Right. Has anyone actually bothered to listen to this? It's absolutely fantastic. It has this great run of songs between tracks 10 and 13 that rival any other dance/pop release ever. And the singles, which are great.

I mean, there's a song about her VIBRATOR on it. "I'm a vibraholic now" she sings, over what sounds like Britney's "I'm A Slave 4 U" fed through some kind of filter that strips out the simulated sex and leaves the mastubatory groans intact. Her "rap" is better than Madonna's too. "Don't Wanna Lose This Feeling" - Kylie would have killed for it a couple of years ago. Send this to #1, single buyers.

It's club music that works for people with absolutely no interest in going clubbing, really. And it's great.

is it Danii that borrows Madonna's 'Into The Groove' audaciously but splendidly on one of the album tracks? it might just be a remix of the new single..i'm sure its Danii's voice

I love the song "I Begin to Wonder". If the rest is as great as you say I think I'll have to pick up the album.

Paul Kennedy to thread last month!

Yes, there is a mix of "Don't Wanna Lose This Feeling" that splices it with "Into The Groove". On the B-side of the single. Yet another reason why it is EVERYONE'S DUTY to buy it.

There's also a less impressive official-ish bootleg of "I Begin To Wonder" vs "You Spin Me Round". Think I'm going nuts here, but "Neon Nights" is fantastic - easily the best thing I've heard this year. It's like a heaving dance/pop juggernaut. Plus, the first and second halves are quite different, so album-loving snobs who hate fun can like it too.

My hopes for a pop album with no duff tracks might one day be fulfilled if Dannii keeps this up. Either way, the bar is high for Kylie's next record.

edward o (edwardo), Saturday, 24 May 2003 22:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh yeah, fantastic album. Great that they included "Who Do You Love Now" on it, even though it doesn't really fit with the rest of it.

one month passes...
Revive! Bloody revive!

You bastards.

Mary, I'll make you a copy of it. The album is almost all great--"Push" is fantastic and one of the songs (err don't have track listing in front of me) borrows quite nicely from "Girls & Boys" (someone help with title).

I think it might be better than Kylie's last...

it pisses all over the girls aloud album from the greatest height.

j0e (j0e), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 13:04 (twenty-two years ago)

there's a mental image. anybody got a copy of photoshop handy?

Kingfish (Kingfish), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 13:23 (twenty-two years ago)

i shall pretend that i don't

stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 13:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Anyway. "Who Do You Love Now" is a great song.

Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 13:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, thanks Ally, but actually I bought the album soon after that post. It's worth it on the basis of the artwork alone.

Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 16:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, my friend Joseph found the "artwork" compelling as well...

Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 16:25 (twenty-two years ago)

"Push" reminds me of Monifah's "Touch It", except Dannii doesn't look like a man at all. Well, the chorus sounds a bit like it anyway. Maybe I've just blown Dannii's next official bootleg with that revelation.

edward o (edwardo), Wednesday, 23 July 2003 20:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Well they have the exact same backing track...

Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 July 2003 00:51 (twenty-two years ago)

one year passes...
ok - just trying out the "bootleg" edition of the album

.. and so far i'm having a blast .. tis a perfect partner for anniemal/body language/state of mind groove.

wish they had dropped the normal version of 'i begin to wonder' on at the end - as i dont think i ever heard this when it was released

.. as i wasn't really following all this electro-infused pop music in 2003 ..

ah ha .. there is the video on the cd though ..

fun.

mark e (mark e), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 12:39 (twenty years ago)

i don't listen to no records made by nazis

Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 12:50 (twenty years ago)

ah ha .. i saw that thread upon my arrival back at the office having just picked up the cd

.. yet to dig into that one ..

it could indeed taint my newfound enjoyment ..

mark e (mark e), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 12:56 (twenty years ago)

listen to the lindsay lohan album for the 2005 version an' all...

CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 12:58 (twenty years ago)

shouldn't this thread be on dissensus?

N_RQ, Wednesday, 27 April 2005 12:59 (twenty years ago)

I reiterate that Neon Nights leaves Annie, GA and her sister's last record trailing in quite a wake.

I didn't know the Lohan was a technopop album, or is this a commentary on the physical features of both ladies?
