Hmm I’d rather a standard reissue than a Part 2 album, they usually perform half as well as the first album.

 

This excites me greatly though:

 

"Someone For Me" has vibes reminiscent of SG Lewis and Robert Miles

It's apparently Tension II but that's meant to represent the Gemini symbol ♊

 

That does worry me as I felt Ste[s lost out on sales due to name alone with What The Future Holds Pt2.

I think partly that, but perhaps coming out with a whole new album so quickly there'll naturally be a lot less hype and excitement.

 

If she can get her 10th number one, I'll be pleased enough with that!

I agree about the Steps comment re naming the album part 2 i think it will result in lost sales, i think i would just prefer something like Tension deluxe or Tension the complete collection.

If its a Tension Tour then the Tension (Gemini Edition) makes sense

 

I am guessing we will see Padam, Tension both on the new album in some way......

True, that might’ve been a factor for Steps too.

 

10th? Didn’t realise that if it does play out that way it’d be a great achievement.

I'm curious to see if any Disco songs end up being used on the tour, she seems to be glossing over that whole era now.

You’d imagine at a minimum one or two get a spot, or even a medley.

Can they please a Rose is a Rose to Tension 2

@lord_raid on X has a song by song guide, lengths etc and description

 

For some reason I cannot post here if anyone else can

 

Looks like Light, Camera, Action is the lead single and video shot already according to his source

 

 

Let's wait and see......

Track-by-track breakdown of @kylieminogue's new album “Tension ♊️” Dive in for all the details you need!

 

The album is very modern and club friendly.

 

A thread you don’t want to miss ⬇️✨

 

#Tension #KylieMinogue

Track: “Got Me Good” (2:44) 🎶 A feel-good bop that instantly takes you back to the “DISCO” era. Funky, fun, and pure Kylie magic! 💃✨ #Tension #KylieMinogue

 

Lyrics snippet: “We’re gonna have the best dance, at the best club with the best friends.”

 

"Night Owl” (2:55) 🦉 A darker, moodier vibe that shows off Kylie’s versatility. It’s haunting, edgy, and suits her perfectly. 🔥 #Tension #KylieMinogue

 

Lyrics snippet: “Who do you become when the sun goes down? Night owl”

"Someone For Me” (2:34) ☀️ Brings that fresh, summery dance vibe with a hint of Robert Miles/SG Lewis energy. #Tension #KylieMinogue

 

Lyrics snippet: “I know the night's about to end/I’m hoping he might a friend/I like the way that you describe/How he can almost read your mind”

 

Lights Camera Action, the BANGER of the album, is single #1 and the video has already been shot. Hollywood Diva.

The album will NOT only contain these tracks. For example: MOM is also on the album.

 

Video for Lights Camera Action was shot on August 28 in Budapest, Hungary.

Lights Camera Action feels like a LostBoy penned title! haha lets see

Let's see indeed

Nothing official has been confirmed yet and there were rumours plus a fake tracklist circulating for a tension reissue only recently. I’ll believe it once it’s confirmed.

Well there are 8 days to go until announced so i would hope we get some insider info so this is looking more and more legit

Ya another number 1 would be great, it will happen it's just a case of with which release but I'm sold sold on a title of Tension 2.

As the II is supposed to represent the Gemini sign (♊), I'm thinking it may even be called "Tension Gemini"

 

All will become clear soon though I imagine.

That does worry me as I felt Ste[s lost out on sales due to name alone with What The Future Holds Pt2.

I agree about the Steps comment re naming the album part 2 i think it will result in lost sales, i think i would just prefer something like Tension deluxe or Tension the complete collection.

I see this said every now and then, but I counter that with: What the Future Holds Pt. 2, a brand new album, sold more copies in its first week (25,285) than Tears on the Dancefloor: Crying at the Disco Deluxe Edition, a reissue (11,136). Which suggests that fans didn't confuse the former as merely being a deluxe. So if anything, Steps gained more sales by marketing it as a new album (while still attaching it to the same era).

 

I guess the proof will be in the pudding! If Kylie is really replicating the above "Steps method", we'll see if Tension II ends up selling considerably more in its first week than Disco: Guest List Edition did (10,409).

 

Personally I'd be more excited at the prospect of getting an album's worth of new tracks, as opposed to a handful being added onto Tension!

Can we not have the original and a ten song new album together?

 

Like a double album?

 

21 songs and stream like hell?

 

I guess they want the new songs to stand out most though so probably not a good idea

I can't see how that would happen, but maybe it'll inadvertently help push the first Tension to gold by the end of the year.
