5.0 out of 5 stars How all 'Greatest Hits' should be like!, July 22, 2006

By

This review is from: Hits & Beyond (Audio CD)

Normally I'm not too fond of Greatest Hits collections. I mean, it's nice to have a selection of singles by your favourite artist on one disc, but fans hardly ever get something new anymore. Any new tracks usually end up as singles, so there's no incentive to buy the album. But now Greatest Hits are set for a make over as Dannii Minogue enters the arena again to give her critics a wake-up call with `The Hits Beyond'. With 15 of her best singles, plus 5 new tracks so we are reminded that there is still a lot more to come.


We follow Ms Minogue through her attitude laced pop beginnings with 4 singles (LOVE AND KISSES, SUCE$$, JUMP TO THE BEAT and BABY LOVE) from her first album `Love And Kisses', and the classic single THIS IS IT from her second album `Get Into You'.

We also hear Dannii as she crosses over into dance territory via the trance undertones from her 3 `Girl' singles; ALL I WANNA DO, EVERYTHING I WANTED and the beautiful DISREMBERANCE. Dannii's most popular electronic pop/dance sound is cemented with the 4 `Neon Nights' singles (WHO DO YOU LOVE NOW, PUT THE NEEDLE ON IT, I BEGIN TO WONDER and DON'T WANNA LOSE THIS FEELING), and 2 non-album releases YOU WON'T FORGET ABOUT ME and PERFECTION.

And there's also a glimpse into the future style and sound of Dannii with new single SO UNDER PRESSURE. If you loved Dannii's `Girl' + releases, and adore bands like Goldfrapp you will love this. Co-wrote by Dannii and Terry Ronald it is a catchy song with a great video to go with it.

Then we get to the `Beyond' section. I CAN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT is a catchy, confessional track, which has great single potential. GOOD TIMES; a pleasant summery, pop number which is great for by the pool or on the beach. SUNRISE is stand out track, which has a slight rock sound to it, another single worthy track. What can I say about GONE other then wow? Dark & sultry. If you like PUT THE NEEDLE ON IT, you a bound to enjoy this tribute to a lover. However the best track of all has to be LOVE FIGHT. If you've visited Dannii's website or Pop Justice you'll have seen the hype surrounding this. Can it live up to it? Yes!! My fingers are crossed this retro-sounding pop/dance track sees a single release! Tongue-in-cheek, fun & instantly catchy this has been called by some the best song Dannii's ever done. I think I may agree...


2006 marks Dannii's 15th year as a recording artist, so it's time for old fans to take a fond look back on her best works, and I'm sure she'll have plenty of new fans after this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your average Greatest Hits, June 26, 2006

Okay, Dannii may not be as successful as her older sister Kylie but what she has achieved, she deserves and this album shows why. Not only does it include the Hits but this version also comes with a PAL format DVD(makes sure you have a DVD player that can play this European format type of DVD because not every player is able to play PAL format DVDs). Being an American Dannii fan means that I've only been able to see her videos on enhanced cds and on the internet where the quality is not that great, so it's fabulous to finally have them on DVD. It's cool to see not only how Dannii's musical style has changed but also how Dannii herself has changed. I perfer the new videos to the older ones. I have a hard time picking my favorite video but I really like-Put the Needle on it, I begin to wonder, You won't forget about me, Perfection, So under pressure,and I can't sleep at night. In the "This is It" video, you can see Julian McMahon from TV's Nip/Tuck appear. He was married to Dannii at the time but sadly the marriage did not last. Seeing the dancing and the fashion in the older videos is fun to see.

The Music
Like the DVD, I enjoy listening to Dannii's more recent material. I was a fan of her sister first and was interested in hearing Dannii's material and when I heard "I begin to wonder" back in 2003, I instantly became a Dannii fan. I really adore all the Neon Nights singles. To me, Dannii has never released a bad single so I love all of the hits that are on the cd. I also love all the "Beyond" songs. Love fight and Sunrise are my two favorites of the new material, I can't sleep at night is a very close third.

So if you're new to Dannii Minogue's music, this is a perfect place to start. If you're an established Dannii fan, you know this collection is a must for you, especially the DVD version. I know I'll be listening to the cd and watching the DVD every day!
