New Megamix – Kylie’s “Aphrodite” Album preview (HQ) (D/L)
Kylie Minogues New Album "Aphrodite"
Ok so for all those Kylie fans out there, you're in luck! The great woman herself did a "mini-megamix" performance/playback in a club in New York for her fans the other day, and whilst the tunes sounded fantastic, the screaming was fairly taxing on the ears.
Fear not! Some smart little person decided to leak this megamix in studio quality, most likely her record label (who have been very internet savvy with this campaign)
So basically for those who were wondering, the songs on this are "Get Out Of My Way" (which the writer claims Britney's label Jive 'begged' for, something which is likely untrue, but nonetheless the song is AMAZING) Then we have "Cupid Boy", which is O K, nothing special in my opinion. "Too Much" co-written with Jake Shears of the scissor sisters, is followed by "Put Your Hands Up" and then we get a taste of the title track "Aphrodite" to finish it off.

New Music Video – Kylie Minogue “All The Lovers” (Must See!)
I'll be quick, what a fantastic video, it does everything that the song was begging for. Superb! This is without a doubt one of Kylie's best videos. Not to mention that she also looks stunning for a woman of her age. Leave comments below!
Single Premiere – Kylie Minogue “All The Lovers” (FULL HQ AUDIO)
So Kylie is returning with her first album since 2007 (Her tenth album, titled X) and it's called "Aphrodite", the first single from which is "All The Lovers". This new song sounds like a really interesting and quite simply beautiful track.
Whilst this is getting a release in the US, I don't see it charting there, at all, so I hope she doesn't bother with that. However it will most likely, and inevitably score a number 1 debut in Australia and the United Kingdom, with a hugely positive reaction from fans and the media alike.
EDIT! I have updated this with the full HQ version of the song, it was uploaded by her record label Parlophone minutes after her radio premiere.I don't get why they're waiting over a month to release this? Music has changed.
P.S The music video looks great and it has been filmed, it was directed by Joseph Kahn who has done videos for Britney, Gwen, Gaga, etc. the list goes on, he's not too bad. Stay tuned for the video!
Natalie Bassingthwaighte "1000 Stars" New Single + Video Review
The 1000 Stars Single Cover
After a number 1 debut for her debut solo effort "1000 Stars", a platinum single "Alive", and a gold single "Someday Soon", Natalie is now releasing her third single from the album, the title track "1000 Stars".
This inspirational song, is set to top the charts, with a killer music video as well as a physical and digital release on May 2nd. Signed copies of the single "1000 Stars" are available for pre-order on JB Hifi currently, I highly reccomend this to anybody who enjoys the song, it will come with remixes, an acoustic version, and a new b-side from Natalie.

Enough of the technical crap! The music video is fantastic, it definetly stands out compared to her previous two videos which both had her with a Macy Gray Style wig, and fake tan to boot! Problem was it did not suit her one bit. However in this video we see a more natural Natalie, showcasing her beauty, on a beach.
1000 Stars The Album
Whilst this may sound benign, there are three different looks, in the first Natalie writhes in the sunlight on the beach in a way reminiscent of Kylie Minogue's "Slow" video, this is Natalie, without makeup or hairstyling, and she looks incredible. Then we diverge to her second look which is on the album art for the single, it's almost like they are trying to make her look extremely old and almost bald, it's very elegant, but at times it is too... antique.
Finally we see the dressed up Natalie in hot pants, she once again looks great, only problem is the timing of the vocals in the chorus at the end seems a little bit off.
Overall the video deserves a rating of 3 and a half stars, it needs either much brighter blue colours to match her album cover, or it needs a storyline. Either way a music video doesn't need a storyline but if that is overlooked then it is very important to make the video spectacular and captivating in terms of the colour and the editing, they just didn't perfect the colour.
Take a listen to 1000 Stars being performed Live in Melbourne at the Crown Casino. And below this you can watch the video!
