    This is a brilliant pop album. It's pure Kylie pop - hummable, sensual, fun & euphoric. It contains fantastic goddess-like dancefloor anthems like All The Lovers, Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love), Cupid Boy and Can't Beat The Feeling as well as elegant chants like Illusion, Everything is Beautiful and Looking For An Angel. All in all, I think it's Kylie's best album, especially because of the amazing production work by Stuart Price, who successfully manages to put the album together as 'a whole piece' of music.… Expand

    It might not be X. But it's certainly got something. It offers current music, classis pop music, beautiful music and sometimes alternative sounding music. Yes Kylie might take a little too much insiration from the artists she works with at times, but you cannot deny the woman knows what she's doing. If you want a good electro/pop album, this is definalty for you, and even if you don't, you are bound to like at least one track from this rather good album.… Collapse

    All the songs are very good pop-dance songs - very Kylie - but there's not one song that stands out. It's too cohesive - I don't know is that such a bad thing, though. In conclusion - it tends to get boring...

    Kylie Minogue does her best at staying current in todays electronic climate with an album of summery breezy disco-pop which works 100%. Amazingly produced and well timed. A fresh alternative to the caustic and angry Gaga.

    This album is proof positive that one can do perfect pop, or as close to him. In times when Pop has become extremely commercialized, Minogue arrives with a proposal dancepop in fact nothing much up there, but listening to him you realize what is possible dancepop for your headphones, without any aggression by strikes very heavy. Generally speaking, Aphrodite is one of the best pop albums of 2010. Highlighting the "All The Lovers" and "Get Outta My Way. " Worth a listen.… Expand

    Its a good album I have to say. I like the tracks Too Much, Put You Hands Up, Cupid Boy, Get Outta My Way and All The lovers. And the DVD is good abit also. New Zealand should get it back to the charts to NO. 1. Its a amazing electropop and dance-pop album

    Aphrodite is the work of someone who knows exactly what her skills are and who to hire to help showcase them to perfection.

    Aphrodite is pure Kylie magic. Everything that made you fall in love with her all over again before is present and correct here.

    The new set casts a spell with Stuart Price's signature preternatural touches, Minogue's breathy chirp and the hooky melodies of a varied crew of dance pop-focused songwriters and producers.
