One word, pop gold. Possibly the best pop debut album of all time? This album spawned so many well loved singles all over the world. For me it was the first album my parents ever bought me. Kylie became a princess for so many childrens dreams and aspirations. Its easy to say Kylie was your "first love" if you grew up with this album. She was certainly mine

While the production values on Kylie's debut are dated at best and the tunes are nothing but standard late-'80s Stock-Aitken-Waterman bubblegum, there are some rather endearing qualities to it. Firstly, she shows a lot more personality than the other Stock, et al. frontperson, Rick Astley. Secondly, her cuteness makes these rather vapid tracks bearable. Her cover of "Loco-Motion" made only small waves in the U.S., but this was the album that launched her career as both pop star and icon in Europe.

 

2.5/5

i still think this was a great debut and its still is a good album to thiis day,to be fair this album is the reason we have kylie to this day it was the start of,it was a huge seller and delivered big hits and won a few awards for her aswell,considering the album is nearly 20 years old it still doesnt sound bad today,

I think back then it was slated just becuase it was kylie but I think its better than what people thought at the time. Even though i love Enjoy Yourself. I think it stands the test of time more than Enjoy Yourself has.

when kylie was released i so remember peoplpe saying mention kylie minogue in 5 years time and no will remember her,how wrong they were,

 

yes kylie is alittle more time worthy than enjoy yourself but i still love enjoy yourself just as much myself

I love Enjoy Yourself too and i still think its under-rated. But it is great how pretty much everyone said kylie wouldnt be around. and its great to see how wrong they all are now.
that what i love about been a real long term kylie fan as now i can say to those who knocked and dismissed her years ago,how wrong you were
For a debut album, it was a good album containing some nice pop songs. There's nothing in the album that will shock you as she kinda sticks to a formula used by the SAW team but every song is good. 4/5

Good point Slowdown. The formula def worked for her for a while but im pleased they changed it for the third album.
