The Music You Were Playing Really Blew My Mind...

"The third smash international single from Kylie Minogue's smash album "Fever", is the second track promoted to America as a single. Climbing into the top 40, it was Kylie's fifth top 40 hit, following the top ten success of "Can't Get You Out Of My Head". This Australian CD-Maxi release of the single is probably the best put together of the international releases, this package contains the b-sides and mixes that were released on two seperate pressings in the UK.
The b-sides of the single are wonderful, the first being a new version of "Can't Get You Out Of My Head", filtered through New Order's classic single "Blue Monday." This new "Can't Get Blue Monday Out Of My Head" is probably even better than the pop gem of the original. Next up is the great "Baby". An incredibly strong bonus tune, it could have easily made the album, and it did, as it's also available on the Japanese issue of the "Fever" album.
Next up is a trio of mixes, the best being the dance pop makeover by Twin. It keeps the pop feel of the song, but still manages to club the song up a bit. A nearly ten minute Ruff & Jam remix also holds it's own, providing a perfect mix to lose yourself in on the dancefloor. The only dud is the Scumfrog edit, a dark thumping mix, it really doesn't fit the song as well as the other mixes, and despite being in a bite-size edit format, it's still hard to swallow. Despite the one flawed mix, this package is excellent, and perfect for the fans of this song."

Destined To Be A Kylie Classic

"Since the smash-hit No.1 single Can't Get You Out Of My Head from September 2001, Kylie Minogue has enjoyed her biggest success since 1988. Can't Get You Out Of My Head sold more than 1,150,000 copies last year to become the 3rd biggest seller of 2001. The No.1 album Fever has sold more than 1,000,000 copies in the UK (8,000,000 worldwide) and the hit single In Your Eyes hit No.3 in February. Her sold out European tour kicked off in spectacular fashion in April 2002 and has yet to finish. Love At First Sight is the third single from the amazing album Fever. My Love At First Sight single is the UK Version and features three songs and a video.



1. Love At First Sight (10/10) - This has to be one of Kylie's greatest singles ever. Not as strong as Can't Get You Out Of My Head, but catchier and stronger than In Your Eyes. Shame it wont get to No.1 because of that Elvis tune.



2. Can't Get Blue Monday Out Of My Head (10/10) - This stunning remix of the No.1 single is (dare I say?!) better than the original. This was the version she performed at the Brit Awards 2002 in THAT skimpy white mini-dress. The 9 or 10 fasts beats are so cool and catchy (I think it's 9 - they go so fast I can't count!).



3. Baby (10/10) - This amazing song was included on some Import versions of Fever. I just don't understand why it wasn't included on the UK edition!!! It's just so catchy; "ba, ba, ba/ba, ba, ba, ba, ba". I know that doesn't give much away about the song - but remember Cant Get You Out Of my Head? You loved the "la,la,la"'s on that didn't ya?! Eh? Eh? Eh?



4. Love At First Sight (Enhanced Video) (10/10) - The video to Love At First Sight is absolutely amazing!!! Much better than the In Your Eyes video. I love the white lines all over the screen and the way the camera never changes from one shot to another - it stays focused on Kylie or the dancers all the time. She looks a bit dizzy and smitten in the video - so much so that she forgets she has her thong hanging out!!! And what is with the blue eyeshadow. Two words Kylie: "Ask somebody"!!!



The whole of this CD is fantastic - apart from the sticker. I like to peel stickers off and now I can't because it doesn't say who it's by on the CD cover!!!"

The BEST of Kylie's wonderful career!!!!!!!!!!!!
