Beautiful and engaging.

"Impossible Princess is by far Kylie's best album, overshadowing most candy-pop stuff she's ever done (even today) with some clever, often meaningful and sensible pop. Very creative and varied with rock, dance, jazz and trip-hop influences, and finally a proof that the australian is not just a mindless singer."
One of a few albums that can be enjoyed track after track

"By 1997, much of the pop music landscape had changed. The music papers were declaring the "Techno Revolution" was on, Oasis and Manic Street Preachers were ruling the charts, and simple dance-pop seemed to be the domain of teenage girls. So what does the dance-pop diva of the '90s do? She recruits Manic Street Preachers' James Dean Bradfield, Sean Moore, and Nicky Wire, starts writing unaided, and completely changes musical direction. Enter Kylie Minogue's Impossible Princess (the title was changed to Kylie Minogue after the death of Princess Diana). From the trippy cover art to the abundance of guitars and experimental vocal tracks, this was her "great leap forward." This is a unique and over all excellent record. Unlike her early work, this album sounds stronger and has a more natural feel. Her songwriting abilities have come a long way, and Impossible Princess actually flows together as an album. Worth another look."
