Red Blooded Man

My new rating (bold letter being the new rating) and track-by-track comment: 01. Magic - 10/10 10/10 Instant bop and I appreciate that this time, Kylie's voice sound rather unedited. 02. Miss A Thing - 11/10 (Absolute lust) 11/10 Still an absolute lust, the song has this Magic-Mike esque, my mind went slightly dirty. :heehee: Must be a single 03. Real Groove - 11/10 10/10 Another bop. I can see why they pick it a single after Magic. 04. Monday Blues - 9/10 7/10 A bit rush and honestly the lyrics feel slightly dated. With more people working irregular hours, I feel that the distinction between Monday and weekends are less clear. :lol: 05. Supernova - 11/10 11/10 Fantastic, must be a single. 06. Say Something - 8/10 9/10 This is a nice surprise from Kylie I have to admit... the staying power of this song is massive though I wasn't feeling it after its initial release. The song hits all the right spot given the time we are living in. 07. Last Chance - 9/10 7/10 A song that I don't rate that highly now. Slightly over-produced and a bit too "noisy", I have to turn down the volume when this song comes, though I love the line "Let's make some magic Supercalifragilistic love". "Supercalifragilistic" should definitely be part of the online dictionary. :lol: 08. I Love It - 9/10 10/10 A quiet disco song after the noisy "Last Chance", feels like a reprieve! :lol: I love it! 09. Where Does The DJ Go - 10/10 10/10 Cheeky little song, I especially like the reference to "I Will Survive". The start when she sings "DJ!!!!!!" is amazing 10. Dance Floor Darling - 8/10 9/10 Despite the high rating, I am little unsure about this song probably because this is as unstructured as "Say Something". The speed-up of the song came a bit too late for me. 11. Unstoppable - 8/10 9/10 It has grown on me since the release of the album. It's quite distinctive from the rest of the album. The style of the song is something Kylie doesn't do very often. 12. Celebrate You - 9/10 10/10 A song with classic Kylie sound, reminds me "Looking For An Angel" somewhat. 13. Till You Love Somebody - 9/10 7/10 Hasn't really left a deep impression on me. 14. Fine Wine - 7/10 7/10 Not totally feeling it. Feels like she just wants to promote her own wine range. 15. Hey Lonely - 9/10 8/10 Nice song with a lovely sentiment that speaks about Kylie being in a bar, spotting a lonely person. 16. Spotlight - 9/10 7/10 A nice finish to the album.

Yeah the performance wasn't as well as I thought. The dress looks heavy on her and she looked like she had to be careful during the performance or the dress could slip off on her. I also would prefer Kylie to move a bit more during Real Groove because the song is called ... "Real Groove".

It was the second Garibay collaboration.

I really hope they can push it towards 160K and let it trickle towards 200K over time.

If it keeps going like this, the album will easily sell 120K by year end. What's important is what happens after the New Year holiday...

This album is going from strength to strength.

Not surprising given zero promotion there.

Yeah I was shocked when I saw No.6

Dropped from Say Hey just now: Wednesday 2nd Dec - Mid week update 6 (10) Disco Sales: 7,685 Sales up by 47% so far Sales yesterday were 1,765 (5th biggest seller yesterday) !! :cheer: !!

What's the second week sales for Australia?

Into the Blue is one of Kylie's best and one of my favourites. The video was one of her best as well.

Saw the part where Kylie did Real Groove and Electricity with Dua, she easily upstaged her. :lol:

I am more concerned about how much sales it can rack up before the year end. 120K possible?

I am a bit stunned at the No.10 but it looked like Kylie has a good distance between No.10 and 11.

That's a rather big drop, hope the record company can hurry some more promo!

To all those comments above, I am not complaining. Her albums did have a history of charting high in European countries' charts (even before streaming ruined everything), then fell of the following week.

That's a lot of "out".

Ah! I hate it when Westlife bumped Kylie out of Top 3 by 1300 copies!! Shayne Ward and Leona Lewis are nowhere to be seen these days. :lol:

What's the sales gap between X and each of the Top 3 position?

So... they aren't pushing single No.3 any time soon? They are leaving it until 2021?

Disco can go gold by Christmas but how it maintains its momentum beyond Christmas is going to be a challenge.

What I have in mind is 5000 copies in the UK, not worldwide. :lol:

I think BMG should release a physical single. Fans would definitely buy it.

Would be nice if we can get first-week sales figures for all the countries lol.

Does anyone know the first week sales in Australia? :unsure:
