Mine is 'X' as strange as this sounds...

it has great tracks such as 'Like a drug', 'In my arms' , 'The one' and 'All i see'

plus it has the most variety between the 4, pop, disco, R&B, dance and electro all in one.

Fever, and for the exact opposite reason as you :heehee: I love how cohesive it is, and that every song is a disco anthem.
I wonder if there will be any votes for 'Body Language'.

I do hope so. It's a truly fantastic album; better than Light Years and much better than X.

woah there

it nowhere near as good as LY or X

*sputter* BETTER than Light Years?! :o

Obviously. :heehee: This is how I see each of the Parlo albums:

 

Light Years A fresh sound for Kylie but she was still finding her groove. A lot of it was overly-cheesy which is perfect on occasions and in small doses but not throughout. There are plenty of highlights, from YDNY and Butterfly to OANLT and the title track, but also more stinkers than on any other album of hers - see Koocachoo and Bittersweet Goodbye. Basically Kylie was still finding her groove and hadn't perfected the dance-pop formula, though it's a good album all the same. 7.5/10

 

Fever By this time Kylie's image was amazing; sexy and shamelessly slutty. The music was more electronic and overall she was the perfect popstar. There's only one song on the album I skip and that's the dreadful Fragile, which is best forgotten. Every other song is fantastic, be it the thumping beat of Come Into My World, the experimentally heavy dance of Love Affair or the obvious megahit Can't Get You Out Of My Head. As an album, Fever will probably never be topped and is my second-favourite Minogue album after Neon Nights. 10/10

 

Body Language It's clear listening to BL that Kylie had been allowed to take a lot more creative control in the wake of Fever's huge success. The music, as well as her image, was hugely more sophisticated, and it spawned the best single of her career, which is of course the fabulous Slow. The best thing about BL is the sheer cohesiveness; it truly feels like an album with a direction, and it never strays. The hooks are plentiful too, be it on the urban-influenced Secret or giant pop gem Still Standing. The only thing to slightly let it down is that as an album it doesn't provide as much fun as it's predecessors. Perfect for Summer, though.9/10

 

X My main gripe with X is how there is just no cohesion; dark dance-pop songs such as the exquisite Like A Drug are chopped clumsily next to spluttering electronica like Speakerphone and brassy pure pop such as Sensitized; it feels too messy. Listening to the album it's hard to imagine what they were aiming for, and on top of that a lot of the lyrics are embarassingly childish, as if Kylie is a teen or a 20-something starting out in the industry, not a proffesional with a masterpiece like Fever under her belt. Thankfully there are some brilliant pop moments on offer; they just don't all belong on the same album. 7/10

So there's my justification. :D

I definitely don't agree about 'Slow' being the best single of her career, or it being as much of an album with direction as you claim. I do like most of it (bar 'I Feel For You' and the heinous 'Someday'), but it does sound a bit like an album of rejected b-sides and studio demos.

Mines Light Years. i love it.

then it would be BL, Fever then X.
