Excellent Re-Issue For The Collectors, December 25, 2008
This review is from: X (2008 Australian Tour Edition) (Incl. Bonus Remix CD) (Audio CD)
Most Kylie fans have already picked up Kylie's latest cd "X". Disc 1 is the same as the U.S. release.
Disc 2 is the find here. Instead of simply retreading on the remixes that were released already on the cd singles as it happens so many times with these re-issues, we get here 7 commercially unreleased remixes plus 2 previously released remixes from the singles and the U.S. bonus track of "All I See" featuring MIMS.
While I would have liked for the Mark Picchiotti mix of "All I See" to have been included since it is quite rare, there's still plenty here for the collectors.
Most noteably, the Freemasons Vocal Club Mix of "The One" clocking in at
9+ minutes. The promo cd for this particular track has been selling on Ebay for as high as $200, so that's worth the price here alone.
Then there are the 2 versions of "Wow" here from the promo cd and 12" vinyl singles.
Rounding out with the 4 versions of "In My Arms" with only the Sebastien Leger Remix previously available on the cd single. The Spitzer Remix will be available on the upcoming "Boombox" cd as well.

What else can i say ?, February 20, 2009
This review is from: X (2008 Australian Tour Edition) (Incl. Bonus Remix CD) (Audio CD)
Like most of the singers out there, the release of the re-packaged seems like a routine of the music industries nowadays.
I am a hardcore fan, and i bought Kylie, Maroon 5, James Blunt, Rihanna, Beyonce, Fergie, Mariah, blah blah...their cd at the first week of release, but you know what, the a**hole records company release the so called "DELUXE EDITION", "TOUR EDITION" and "RELOADED" or something...with extra tracks, remixed cd or DVD....what ever...so do you think you wanna spend another ten or twenty bucks to buy the new one ? Yes i did and you can call me stupid. But what am i supposed to do with the original cd ?
OK...the reason why i bought this is due to the remixed cd, they are good, they are excellent, and check out track number 3, the Freemasons vocal club mix which spin over 9 minutes, the tracks selection of this remixed cd is even much better than another new release of remixes from Kylie called Boombox.
I won't say it is a must for all hardcore kylie fans, but you know what, it is all depends on you, and i think it's worth, so i bought it. Check out another asian release, also a re-packaged but with different track lists and bonus DVD. See how smart the record company try to grab our hard earn money.
Without the remixes, the standard edition only deserved a 2 stars, and for kylie, you always have a 5 stars from all your fans, but the records company, the producer, the wardrobe adviser, the song writter, you guys sucks, you guys reserved not even a single star.

Just buy it., April 6, 2010
This review is from: X (2008 Australian Tour Edition) (Incl. Bonus Remix CD) (Audio CD)
Kylie Minogue is one of those artist that is very pop but in a good way and I must say that the remixes from that side of the world (Australia ) are waaaaaaay better than the american remixes I gues they are not afraid to continue being tecno -electronic- transetter opoose to the american remixes that are very boring.
