Beel 633 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 So, Kylie pretty well delivered a year and a half ago when she put out Kiss Me Once. But did she miss some opportunities there? I personally think so, and I'm wondering what you guys think. Someone of Kylie's standing should have been taking more risks there. The riskiest promo was the Sexercise video (weren't we supposed to get like 5 more of those...?) and it was fairly tame by today's standards, despite being amazing. And then there were the single choices. Million Miles and Les Sex were obvious contenders, but no. Parlophone released I Was Gonna Cancel, which ngl had really good video potential. However, they fucked that up too: I was expecting neon retro slayage but instead got a car insurance commercial. And then Parlophone released Beautiful. Need I say more? So what are your biggest gripes with Kiss Me Once, a year and a half later now that the era is dead and you don't have to pretend it's the album of the decade? Link to post Share on other sites

Memorial Address 11,116 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 It's not a bad album, it was the singles picked that made it flop. Link to post Share on other sites

Iconic 3,104 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Les Sex,Million Miles and Fine should have been singles I've heard Les Sex multiple times in stores such as H&M,Zara etc. The gays loved it Link to post Share on other sites
Hunty Bear 12,485 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I agree. Link to post Share on other sites
Vilppu 10,033 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 The album should have never existed tbh The single choices were questionable, the videos were boring, the tracklist was messy (I mean, making the best song off the entire era a ITB b-side and forgetting about Skirt?) and the music itself was simply not good It could've been handled better but it still wouldn't do wonders. Kylord redeemed herself with Sleepwalker EP a biT though Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelS24895 5 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Beautiful is the type of song gays loathe but Hetros love. I understand it's choice in being a single tbh Link to post Share on other sites
Americunt 16,422 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 The tracklist of the album was godawful. Nearly all the outtakes and bonus tracks would've made it more interesting and experimental, as releases go. An album with Waiting 4 The Sun, Skirt, Voodoo, Sparks and Mr. President would've certainly been better than the final product of Kiss Me Once. Link to post Share on other sites
Angelus 11,476 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Album was great. Her days are over. It had nothing to do with quality. But Skirt>>>> Link to post Share on other sites

untitled 733 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Parlophone released I Was Gonna Cancel, which ngl had really good video potential. However, they fucked that up too: I was expecting neon retro slayage but instead got a car insurance commercial. Sexercise is a bop tho Link to post Share on other sites
Cloud-Ninetales 4,761 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 It wouldn't have mattered to the U.S. what the singles were cuz we don't support ha. Link to post Share on other sites
plutoniano 16,571 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 KMO was a mess. A terrible album, an awful management, shit styling and imaginery, the voice uk AND australia. It's only saving grace is the SLEEPWALKER EP and the tour tbh and even that had a flawed setlist. KMO and ITB are bops tho Link to post Share on other sites
