Kylie Minogue: "All The Lovers"

Kylie Minogue's new single "All The Lovers" premiered on the radio this morning, and to commemorate the fact, the good folks at Parlophone have put it up on youtube to share with the world.



To put things very simply, it's absolutely bloody amazing. The lyrics are fairly standard Kylie fare (i.e. fairly simple with a real emphasis on repetition) but what really sets this apart is the amazing production job courtesy of Stuart Price. The whole thing positively bristles with energy and it hits the middle ground between club and radio playability perfectly. Kylie's voice sounds amazing and frankly the whole thing is exactly the sort of return to form that we'd hoped for and envisaged a couple of weeks ago. This absolutely deserves to be the song that propels Kylie back to the top spot after the mis-fire that was "2 Hearts". All this really needs is the kind of epic video which she pulled out for "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" and this thing is pretty much destined to be THE pop hit of the Summer. If we were to compare "All The Lovers" to a drink it would definitely be a G & T as it works equally well at that bit of the dinner party where everyone's gone out to the balcony to reflect on how amazing everything is and also at that point at a club when you think you've reinvented the medium of dance, but you've actually just fallen over and possibly broken your girlfriend's nose in the process.

But we digress. "All The Lovers" is amazing. Well done everyone.
