5 hours & 45 minutes until Tension is released in the UK!

 

Was just coming to say the same! This feels like it’s been the longest wait ever for an album.

 

Love seeing the excitement from New Zealand, Australia etc., at the album dropping there.

I paid £3 and Townsend couldnt even dispatch for a Friday delivery........

‘Hold On To Now’ is the song they are pushing with the album - Track 3 on NMF for Australia & New Zealand

 

Right, next time I post will be my thoughts on the album. Probably tomorrow morning (with a hangover)

 

See you on the other side! :cheer:

 

Enjoy queen Jessie

 

Just Carol Honey ❤️

11 minutes to go where I live! So glad I pushed my flight back to uni till October, I would've had a further four hours to go then.

I know. Luckily HMV and Amazon are delivering tomorrow but the official store will be Saturday or even next Monday! :blink:

Aussie fans have it in all their glory now, i know im lucky to have got mine early but hopefully its making a splash in Australia,.

My Spotify vinyl is on its way fingers crossed for delivery tomorrow.

 

Shame this didnt at the least make the deluxe version as i think its a really great track.

Hold On To Now - OMFG ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I need a Kylie candle! :cheeseblock:

Posting this here too coz it's going to annoy me if I can't find my first listen through ratings some point in the future :lol:

 

First listen rate:

 

10.0 Padam Padam > Just an amazing Summer anthem! So, SO good. <

10.0 Hold On To Now > THIS IS STUNNING! OMG. Lowkey gives me 'With Every Heartbeat' vibes! Ohhh I hope this is big for her! <

10.0 Things We Do For Love > WTF. 3 FOR 3?? LOOOOVE this! So poppy and 80's synth inspired! ADOREEEEE! <

07.0 Tension > Still don't think this is anywhere near as good as the hype suggests it is, I'm sorry. But then, "funky house" has never really been my thing... <

07.0 One More Time > It's fun. I feel the same as this as I do Dua's 'Dance The Night' (randomly)... it's cute. <

09.0 You Still Get Me High > ...and we're back! This is wonderful! <

06.0 Hands > It's fine. Just kinda there for me atm. <

06.5 Green Light > A slightly better version of the song before. It's good. <

10.0 Vegas High > This & 'Tension' were the two songs I heard during "the leaks" and I have been anticipating this ever since... it has NOT disappointed! SOOOO GOOD! <

--.- 10 out of 10 (Oliver Heldens feat. Kylie Minogue) > Not heard this. It's greyed out on my Apple Music? So I will dig it out at some point. <

08.5 Story > This is so punchy and it's like 'Things We Do For Love' earlier in the album, little sister. I love this and it serves well as the closer to the standard album! <

06.0 Love Train > It's ok. I feel this could get irritating fairly quickly though... <

08.0 Just Imagine > This is really, really nice! Even has enough room to grow! I think this will be the one that I root for that will quietly become a fan fave over time! <

08.0 Somebody To Love > This is lovely! Another sleeper one I think. People will start realising it's beauty over time I reckon. <

A great album! That top 8 is... WHEW! I *like* the others but not as much as I love the tracks above the line! Everything above the line are some perfect examples of what I love about pop music. Just so catchy, carefree, effortless and FUN! :wub: I've not been into a Kylie album like this since 'Aphrodite'!
