BuzzJack Music Forum _ Kylie and Dannii Minogue _ Fierce & Mighty Aphrodite Rate

Posted by: Regina 29th June 2015, 02:18 PM



It's almost 5 years since Kylie's euphoric album Aphrodite hit the selves and so let's rate it, why not? Also means baby Ethan is nearly 5 too ohmy.gif how time flies.

Same old rules tbh. Eahc song needs a score between 0 and 10. Half marks are fine, no 10.5's. One 11 and -1 should you so desire.
I've put in the b-sides and unreleased tracks from the era too, since there wasn't many of them and it's nice to include them.

There is youtube links to the last songs in the first post :/ how hard is it to listen to them first?

Posted by: Aphrodite 1st July 2015, 12:38 AM

I was shocked mad.gif seeing All The Lovers getting a mere 3.5 but a minus 1 is a right shocker,i know i am biased as i love the song but i didnt think anyone would rate it as the worst song on the album. In context i can relate it to Get Outta My Way, while i like the song im not a huge fan of it like many other Kylie fans are.

All The Lovers for me is very high on my list of the best Kylie songs/singles of her career.

11 | All The Lovers (Who gives whatever lower than 8 needs to have their ears examined, properly)
10 | Get Outta My Way
07 | Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)
10 | Closer
08 | Everything Is Beautiful
10 | Aphrodite
07 | Illusion
08 | Better Than Today
09 | Too Much
10 | Cupid Boy
09 | Looking For An Angel
10 | Can't Fight The Feeling

09 | Mighty Rivers (should be on the album!)
05 | Heartstrings (Sounds like a Mighty Rivers-reject)

05 | Silence
08 | Change Your Mind
07 | Love, Love, Love

Basically this is one of the few Kylie albums that I do not skip any songs, unlike BL and LY. wub.gif

Some of y'all need to get yo ears tested.

Posted by: liamk97 3rd July 2015, 01:23 PM

This is one of my top Kylie albums for sure; everything from the artwork theme, how perfectly suited Kylie's voice is to the songs, how everything's so free-flowing and summery. Not to mention the killer instrumental to 'All the Lovers' just before the final choruses. wub.gif Will get the album listened to and post my ratings soon!

A rather consistent album and a joy to listen to from start to finish. I'm not fussed that some tracks didn't make the final cut but the likes of 'Silence' and 'Love x3' are solid pop tracks.

My order of the album itself from best to least:

01 | All The Lovers
02 | Cupid Boy
03 | Get Outta My Way
04 | Aphrodite
05 | Better Than Today
06 | Everything Is Beautiful
07 | Can't Fight The Feeling
08 | Closer
09 | Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)
10 | Looking For An Angel
11 | Too Much
12 | Illusion

After All The Lovers and GOOMW, Mighty Rivers is easily the next track I listen to most from this era. Lovely song. Love the harmonies. Great to listen to when I am running.

I swear some of you guys are giving 'Silence' a lowly score simply because you're not familiar with it. sad.gif
