Light Years

This album is one of the best albums of the year, as far as i am concerned. It is a true return to form for the princess of pop.

Starting with the UK no 1 hit "Spinning around", followed by the no 2 hit "On a night like this", the album goes from strenght to strenght.

As far as i am concerned "Disco Down" has to be the best track on the album and the next single. The campest record since the Pet Shop Boys "Go West", "Your Disco Needs You" does sound second rate compared to the Almighty remix on the single of "On a night like this", but it is still great.

The albums only ballad, "Bittersweet Goodbye", is just beautiful. The title track is great and must be down to be a future single. Also put on the album is the much talked about duet with Robbie Williams, another fine song.

Just for your information, there is a hidden track, "Password", at the very beginning of the album. When "Spinning around" comes on, you need to hold your finger on the rewind button of your cd player and rewind into the song (this must be the first time a hidden track is at the beginning of an album).

This really is a great album, a must for pop fans everywhere.

Kylie made a comeback in 2000 with this album. The album is very dance pop, with some disco thrown in for good measure. It's a fun guilty pleasure. "Spinning Around" and "On A Night Like This" are Kylie classics now. "Disco Down", "So Now Goodbye" and the title track are other great disco numbers that will keep you dancing and singing along with the CD. There's a few tracks I could do without though. "Bittersweet Goodbye" seems out of place (being that it's the only ballad), "Please Stay" is one of the worst songs she's ever done, and I didn't care for "Kids" or "Your Disco Needs You". "Koocachoo" and "Loveboat" are ok songs but nothing to get excited about. The other good tracks include "Butterfly", "I'm So High" and "Under The Influence".
