Body Language is the ninth studio album by Australian singer

Emiliana Torrini, Johnny Douglas, and Kurtis Mantronik among others. Influenced by the musical works of the 1980s and artists like Prince and Scritti Politti, Body Language musically differs from Minogue's previous albums, which mainly featured disco-oriented dance-pop tracks, and instead explores genres like synth-pop, electroclash, R&B, and hip hop
. Lyrically, the album touches upon themes of flirtation, romance, introspection and heartbreak.

Following its release, Body Language received generally favourable reviews from

platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). In the United Kingdom, the album peaked at number six and was certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry
(BPI).

Three singles were released from Body Language. "

singles charts of Australia, Denmark, Spain and the United Kingdom. "Red Blooded Woman" was released as the second single and reached the top five in Australia and the United Kingdom. "Chocolate" was released as the final single and peaked inside the top 10 in the United Kingdom. Minogue performed at a one-off concert-show titled "Money Can't Buy", on 15 November 2003 to mark the release of the album. Body Language became notable for displaying another change in Minogue's persona and is cited as an example of her numerous "reinventions". The album sold 1.5 million copies worldwide. It was reissued for the album's twentieth anniversary, on vinyl for the first time ever, on 8 March 2024.[3][4]

Background and development

In October 2001,

record charts of Minogue's native Australia[6] and the United Kingdom.[7] It was Minogue's first album to be released in the United States since her second studio album Enjoy Yourself (1989),[8] and became her biggest commercial success in the region after peaking at number three on the Billboard 200 chart.[9] With worldwide sales over six million copies, Fever became Minogue's highest-selling album to date.[10] The success of the album, particularly in the US, was credited to the commercial impact of its lead single "Can't Get You Out of My Head", which reached number one in 40 countries.[11][12] "Can't Get You Out of My Head" sold over five million copies worldwide,[13] becoming Minogue's highest selling single to date and also one of the best-selling singles of all time.[14]

Soon, Minogue began work on her ninth studio album Body Language. Aiming to create a dance-pop album inspired by

Emiliana Torrini, Johnny Douglas and Mantronix.[15] Talking further about Scritti Politti, a British post-punk band, Minogue reminisced about her collaboration with the band's frontman Green Gartside, who provides vocals on the track "Someday", saying, "To this day I haven't met him! I left a message on his answering machine, saying, "Hi, it's Kylie! I just wanted to say thanks so much! You sound brilliant!"[5] "After Dark" was co-written by Dennis, who had previously co-written "Can't Get You Out of My Head" for Minogue.[1] Torrini, who co-wrote "Slow", revealed how she was approached for writing the song, saying "It was like I had just accidentally walked into the line of fire with, "Hey! You There! It was all quite surreal. I still think Kylie's people were trying to call Jamelia, and they just got the wrong number. It'd be much more funny if that is how it actually happened".[16] The recording of Body Language took place during the summer of 2003, in London, England; Dublin, Ireland and Marbella, Spain.[15]

Music and lyrics

Inspired by music from the 1980s, Body Language deviates from Minogue's usual disco-influenced dance-pop style, evident on albums like

club and R&B.[1][17] In comparison to her previous work, Body Language is a "slower-burning record"[18] and begins with the song "Slow", a "minimal" and simple track which serves as a primary example of the synthpop-styled production of the album.[17] Adrien Begrand from PopMatters compared it to "More More More", the opening track of Fever, saying "In contrast to the pulsating, hi-hat driven dance beat of Fever's "More More More", Body Language gets off to a more understated start".[17] Other synthpop songs on the album include "Still Standing" and "Promises", which make use of "buzzing, low synth lines driving the beats, and chord flourishes that sound straight out of 1984".[17] The former track also displays influences of nu-disco[19] and club music.[20]

Many songs on Body Language are influenced by R&B and

ballads such as the quiet storm-influenced "Chocolate" and "Obsession".[21][22] Minogue's vocal delivery on the album is mostly seductive and breathy in tone, such as in songs like "Slow" and "Chocolate",[17] although the track "Obsession" features raspy vocals.[18]

The work of various artists from the 1980s, such as American singer-songwriter Prince (pictured), influenced the development of Body Language.[5]

Critics noted references and similarities to 1980s pop music throughout the album.

urban contemporary band Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam's 1984 song "I Wonder If I Take You Home", both in its title and refrain.[19][21] The line of the song in which Minogue sings "don't confuse emotions with the pleasure principle" also refers to American recording artist Janet Jackson's 1987 song "The Pleasure Principle".[19]

Lyrically, Body Language touches upon themes like enjoyment, flirting, sex,

car racing.[23] Ballads like "Obsession" deal with issues of loss and the ending of a relationship.[22]

Release

Body Language was released on 14 November 2003 in Australia,

South of France, so it was [easy to] channel the spirit of [Brigitte] Bardot. She's a great iconic reference, particularly that period where she was working with Serge Gainsbourg".[5] The title of the album was taken from a line from the song "Slow" in which Minogue sings "Read my body language".[15]

Hot Dance Club Songs chart.[31] In Australia, "Slow" was certified platinum by the ARIA for shipments of 70,000 units.[32] The accompanying music video for "Slow" was directed by Baillie Walsh and was shot in Barcelona, Spain.[26][33] It features Minogue and a number of beach models performing synchronised choreography to the song while sunbathing next to the Piscina Municipal de Montjuïc swimming pool.[34][35]

"Red Blooded Woman" was released as the second single on 1 March 2004.[36] Critics praised its radio-friendly sound and lyrical content.[17] The song performed well on charts, peaking at numbers four and five in Australia[37] and the United Kingdom,[7] respectively. An accompanying music video for the song was directed in Los Angeles by Jake Nava, and features Minogue performing dance routines in various locations.[36]

"Chocolate" was released as the third and final single on 28 June 2004.[38] It received mixed reviews from critics, some of whom praised its sensual nature but criticised Minogue's vocals for being over-processed.[18][20] The song was a moderate commercial success, peaking at number six in the United Kingdom,[7] but narrowly missing the top 10 in Australia.[39] It became Minogue's 27th single to peak inside the top 10 in the UK.[38] Dawn Shadforth, who had previously directed the video for "Can't Get You Out of My Head", collaborated on the music video for "Chocolate", which sees Minogue and a number of backup dancers performing a ballet-like dance routines as a tribute to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer musicals.[38]

At

Madonna; he concluded by labelling Body Language a "near perfect pop record" and "what may well be the best album of her [Minogue's] career".[1] Keith Caulfield from Billboard was also positive in his review and complimented Minogue for selecting a talented creative team, saying, "The sexy, solid set is glued together by danceable beats and Minogue's knack for picking great songs and producers."[56] The Irish Times review of the song called the album a "worthy successor to 2001's smash hit Fever, a supremely danceable collection of electro-pop songs that's clearly in thrall to the 80s" and complimented Minogue's versatile vocal delivery.[51]

Ethan Brown from New York was greatly impressed by opening track "Slow", and commented that most of the songs on the album "mimic its sound, none of the other songs on Body Language comes close to the achievement of "Slow"".[57] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine felt Body Language was a better album than Fever, calling it "less immediate and more experimental, a midway point between the alternative/electronica of 1997's Impossible Princess and Minogue's more mainstream post-millennium work", and praised it for being cohesive. He also complimented Minogue's "willingness to try something new – even if it's within the confines of dance-pop – is what's made her an international sensation 15 years running".[19] Rob Sheffield from Rolling Stone favoured the sensual nature of the album, calling it "fantastic" and that "At thirty-five, she's ten times hotter than she was ten years ago – on Body Language, Kylie Minogue definitely sounds like she has a few more tricks stored on her hard drive than Britney [Spears] or Christina [Aguilera]".[54]

Chris Willman from Entertainment Weekly called it Minogue's "Madonna-meets-Mirwais move" and felt that her exploration of new genres is "ludicrously enjoyable", although he opined that the album was "synthetic" and "all Body [sic] no soul".[58] Helen Pidd from The Guardian favoured the blend of 1980s musical styles on the album, but felt that it lacked danceable songs, saying "Problem is, as with the majority of other tracks – including, most disappointingly, the Dennis-penned "After Dark" – you would be hard pushed to dance to it, which could well be Body Language's downfall".[18] John Robinson from NME gave Body Language an overall positive review and called it "an extremely tastefully done, soulful modern r'n'b record", but felt that it "fails to live up to its predecessor [Fever]".[52] Likewise, Adrien Begnard from PopMatters felt that Body Language lacked the "undeniably catchy" material which was present in Fever, but praised the overall production and the first half of the album; he concluded that "Even though Body Language is a bit of a misstep for Minogue, there's a sense of class to it" and that "Britney [Spears] could learn a thing or two".[17] The Spin review of the album commented that Minogue "wears the '80s well" and praised the dance-oriented songs on the track listing, although they criticised the ballads and pointed out that "[at times] Minogue's vocals are so over-processed that they barely seem to exist at all".[20] On the other hand, Andy Battaglia from The A.V. Club opined that the ballads "work" and concluded that "Body Language shows Minogue as a surprisingly impressive presence in spurts, but she sounds better with her pleasure engine revving at full purr".[22]

Commercial performance

Although Body Language was not as much of a commercial success as Fever, it performed well nonetheless.

platinum for shipping 140,000 units in the country.[60] In the United Kingdom, the album entered and peaked at number six on the UK Albums Chart with first week sales of 68,866 units.[61][62] It remained inside the top 10 for one week, and for two weeks in the top 20. In total, it stayed on the chart for 30 weeks.[7] Body Language was certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) on 28 November 2003,[47] and had sold 398,035 copies by December 2007.[62]

Legacy

If Light Years was the comeback, and Fever the confirmation, then Body Language can best be described as Kylie's "big step forward."

—Chris True, in his review of Body Language at AllMusic[1]

In 2004, Minogue was nominated for "Best Female Artist" at the

Best Dance Recording",[73] and in 2012, Minogue picked the song as her all-time favourite song from her 25 years in music.[74]

Following its release, Body Language was considered to be an example of Minogue's constant "reinventions".[75] During this period, Minogue was often referred to as "Bardot Kylie" due to the Brigitte Bardot-inspired look she sported on the cover, and Body Language was seen as a step forward from the "slick, minimalist and postmodern" image she had adopted during the release of Fever.[76] Chris True from AllMusic regarded the album as "another successful attempt [by Minogue] at broadening her sound (with electro and hip-hop for instance) and winning more fans".[8] Later in his review of Minogue's tenth studio album X (2007), he remarked that "By the time of 2004's Body Language, Kylie Minogue was seemingly unassailable, with three hit albums, a number of hit singles, and a recharged career that only a few years before had seemed precarious at best".[77]

In 2006, Larissa Dubecki from

first hit single with a cover of the Little Eva classic "Locomotion" in 1987, to the 1960s ingenue of her most recent album, 2003's Body Language".[75] In 2020, Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine ranked Body Language as the second best album of Minogue's career. He praised the singer for exploring new genres and presenting a "smooth, sleek, and understated" album, which he described as an "anomaly" in Minogue's discography.[78] Mark Elliott from the website Dig! called it "pleasingly experimental", noting that Body Language has come to be regarded as "one of the most interesting and ultimately rewarding entries among the best Kylie Minogue albums".[79] Similarly, writing for its twentieth anniversary, Quentin Harrison of Albumism opined that it is "one of the subtlest and most creatively defiant vehicles within her canon".[80]
