5.0 out of 5 stars Dannii pulls a Janet, January 22, 2004

By	Nasser Alqatami - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Kylie Minogue's less-successful but ever-so-persistent sister Dannii releases "Neon Nights" in hopes of capitalizing on Kylie's skyrocketing fan base. Mind you, Dannii was a singer back in the days, but never arrived at Kylie status.

"Neon Nights" is frank dance with unashamed flamboyance. There are already three hits on this album. The absolutely fabulous "Put The Needles On It" and the funky club tune "I Begin To Wonder." Plus the techno romp "Who Do You Love Now?" with Riva.

"Push" sounds alertingly similar to Monifah's "Touch It"

The album is very promising with songs like "Creep" and "For The Record" and it never settles for less then stompers, check out "Hey! (So What)."

To fully appreciate this album try to avoid Kylie comparisons - as Kylie is the goddess of dance. But Dannii definitely has something to offer on this album.

Since popular culture is adamant on "keeping it real" and hardcore, whatever that is, "Neon Nights" might have a hard time breaking it stateside. But, whoever said unapologetic glossy dance can't have true emotion. While the media tries to define what is real by awarding and giving props to the likes of the utterly-bland Nora Jones, pick up "Neon Nights" and be prepared to dance for inspiration.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great US Introduction to This Aussie Diva, October 9, 2003

By	andrew (windermere, florida) - See all my reviews

for those of you who dont know who dannii minogue is... well that doesnt come as much of a surprise. dannii(danielle) is the kid sister of kylie and this is her 1st stab at the american market. neon nights is a non-stop album that features dannii's hits put the needle on it, i begin to wonder(one of the best dance songs to come out this year), and who do you love now. i hope that american audiences will give dannii a chance and that this cd finds it way onto dance floors and radio stations across the country. i promise these songs will have you singing along after a couple of listens and you will not be able to supress the urge to "shake your groove thang".

5.0 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY IT JUST BECAUSE DANNII IS KYLIE'S SISTER!, November 19, 2003

By	D. FOXWORTH "foxy" (TRAVERSE CITY, MICHIGAN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Yes I bought this because it was in the Kylie Minogue bin at the store. I was curious to see if Dannii was a Kylie clone. Of course, this would be a good thing because Kylie is AWESOME! But I quickly learned to love this CD based on Dannii's own merits.

All the songs are energy-infused and fun. There is only one slow song on the entire CD. Plus the hidden track is fantastic. "I Begin To Wonder" is the absolutely best song! But of course you will also have to buy the import version with "Begin To Spin Me Åround" because this has become a tremendous dance hit.

So don't buy this just because it is Kylie's sister. Buy it because Dannii deserves to be listened to and enjoyed! It's groovy!
