Kylie Minogue returns with ‘X‘, her first studio album since she was diagnosed with cancer in 2005 and the follow-up to2003’s ‘Body Language’. The Australian pop-princess has enjoyed a successful music career, following her departure fromAustralian soap, ‘Neighbours’. Her 1980’s pop sound has developed over the years to become eclectic and sharp, switching from electro to dance to pop and ‘X’ is no exception. Kylie is back and stronger than ever. ‘2 Hearts‘ is an included single.

Kylie Minogue - X Album Review from Amazon.co.uk
Traditionally, Kylie Minogue has been at her best attempting pure pop, not chasing credibility, but X–her tenth studio album, and the first since 2003 Body Language somehow pulls off the trick of being both. With production credits split between old hands like Richard Stannard and Guy Chambers and new faces like Calvin Harris, the Freemasons and Bloodshy & Avant, the Swedish team behind Britney’s “Toxic”, X does a neat job of matching big hooks with forward-thinking production tricks. The poptimistic Kylie fan will head straight for “2 Hearts”, a sassy falling-for-you number with a glammy beat and a chorus poised to fill a thousand Karaoke rooms, and “Wow”–a thumping disco number with a lot of love to give. Scattered alongside these, however, are some slightly more adventurous productions that demonstrate that despite a few years off the stage, Kylie is well up to speed with 21st Century pop: the excellent “Speakerphone” begins with the sound of a strummed harp before diffusing into a shimmering, Scandinvian-tinged electro-pop number reminiscent of Robyn or The Knife, all snapping, sassy beats and vocodered vocal; meanwhile, the ghetto-pop bounce of “Nu-di-ty” proves raunch is still by no means beyond her. A very welcome return. , –Louis Pattison
