This was the reinvention ablum for Miss Minogue. This was the one that got her back in to the charts in a big way, with Spinning Around serving admirably as the lead single. Her career had seemingly nose-dived with the poorly received Impossible Princess, but this album set up the huge success Kylie has seen since the turn of the century. The highlight is probably the dreamy On A Night Like This, set over a truly late-'90s Dance-Pop beat. The album falls away slightly after the first two tracks, but maintains the upbeat, sugary Dance-Pop throughout. This was the album that turned Kylie's career towards its most successful period, certainly since the late '80s, and arguably, ever. The album is centred around the singles, tracks 1, 2, 7, 8 and 13. While the singles are, for the most part, all at least decent Pop songs, this leaves the rest of the album feeling empty and lacking quality. Nonetheless this is a serviceable Pop album.
