Kylie - Tension (Album XVI)

[AGinAg (38)]

In fact she DESERVES ALL THE CAKE.

 

[lolly]

I just had a little cry watching the visualiser for Things We Do For Love

What a time to be a homosexual

 

[Kratz]

The gays STOCKING UP on tat in the background

I told you Mother, there’s no tea-cosies LEFT!

 

[Sheena]

But if you only bought two vinyls to sell isn’t that the same thing? Not that I’m criticising you, Kylie fans have earned the right to recoup some money back these last few releases.

She’d have been better giving out free glasses of the alcohol to get the gays’ wallets opening even deeper.

I am fucking criticising! The sheer nerve of moaning at scalpers and then doing it yourself!

 

[Sheena]

The AMOUNT of instagram gays proudly holding six copies to rub it in others’ faces and then proclaiming THEY’RE FOR FRIENDS is quite good fun, though.

 

[Sheena]

(I’m not bothered, by the way- I even only went for boring black vinyl as they’ll inevitably reissue it down the line and I’ll flog my copy ANYWAY)

 

[lolly]

Knowing that the one copy already on its way to me will sit with those two (or is it three?) copies of Disco gathering dust is already too much for me.

I know that had I gone to the store I'd have totally bought into it though.

In my defence, the SCALPS were evidently NOT Kylie fans. Thankfully security did spot an entire gang of Sports Direct bag carrying yoof and we're trying to restrict access (AFTER they had queued for a few hours).

We are still waiting for votes from the @Sheena jury btw.

Scalping is scalping in any form…..Anyway Kylie has apparently just blessed the gays with a store visit at 7pm.

Except it CLOSED at 6pm. Oh.

 

[Jark]

fuck me the visualiser for Things We Do is UTTER TRANSCENDENT JOY!

HOT like a FEVER
CALL me a DREAMER
I'M A BELIEVER
IN TRUE LOOOOVE
​

WHAT a middle 8. WHAT a song. WHAT A WOMAN! has she EVER been more visibly living her best life?! this is my absolute standout right now.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Except it CLOSED at 6pm. Oh.

They left it open longer as they knew she planned to visit.

 

[Eddie]

It's Just Imagine that is the runt of the litter here for me. Not bad by any means - it just washed over me.

This is her worst HAIR nightmare. Love At First Sight and Padam have NOTHING on this.

Yet she remains utterly JOYOUS throughout.

Like I said above, it actually made me shed a tear

TRUST YOU to find the NEGATIVE in something so ECSTATIC!

I actually spent the whole thing thinking her WEAVE was FABULOUS!

To add to her many talents: holding a glass of wine, while standing on one leg.

oh look. It’s Kylie at the Kylie store which it was implied I’d made up. Oh.

 

[Jark]

miaaowww

 

[Suedehead]

My copy has not arrived and I'm pissed off because I can't post it on my insta and I needed the likes

I wasn't suggesting you had! Just convenient that she turns up after everyone (loons) have gone home!

[Sheena]

This album is going to sell something SILLY this week. I’m calling it now.

 

[AGinAg (38)]

That's just COMMON SENSE.

I've got four likes. Can't share sorry.

 

[lolly]

I fully expect she'll be doing a stock take of Disco Darling about now

Hold On To Now and Things We Do For Love are an incredible 1-2 pop of wistful pop done differently yet brilliantly.

 

[lolly]

 

[Sheena]

I’m already entirely ready for the inevitable extended mixes vinyl release that I didn’t actually need but still bought for Disco…

 

[Eddie]

Why does FUCKING Neil McCormick always get the gig of reviewing Kylie. God, I hate the Telegraph:

On Tension, Kylie Minogue shows she’s still pop’s leading lady

The Australian star’s 16th album is a characteristically breezy and catchy record. But can we lose the American accent and cringey raunch?

www.telegraph.co.uk

 

[Eddie]

He fills EVERY REVIEW with backhanded compliments.

 

[Eddie]

I love this review from Variety:

Kylie Minogue’s ‘Tension’ Keeps Her Drumbeat Going ‘Padam Padam’ With 11 Slabs of Pop Perfection: Album Review

Featuring the singles 'Padam Padam' and 'Tension,' Kylie Minogue's sixteenth album delivers the kind of irresistible fun expected from pop royalty.

I post these tweets in response to McCormick's patronising review.

Surely by her 16 album she deserves more credit that some are giving her.
