Kylie Minogue's new album will NOT feature a song about rainforests

  • July 19, 2013
  • Brad O'Mance

Kylie newKylie Minogue's been chatting away about her new album, which appar­ently includes "some sparkle, some sex, some insouciance" and, much to everyone's dis­ap­point­ment, will not feature a song about rainforests.

:(

Asked by someone at E! what the sonic DNA of the album is like, the 'Timebomb' hitmaker explained:

"It would have some sparkle, some sex, [THIS IS THE BIT WE QUOTED ABOVE BUT YOU'VE PROBABLY ALREADY REALISED THAT] some insouciance. And joy — that's what I would hope. That's what people tell me… There's a lot to be said for making people feel good. That's, like, the most rewarding part of what I do."

She also said a lot of it would be about love, before adding seemingly apropos of nothing: "I haven't decided to sing about the rain­forest at this point."

Asked to explain what on earth 'Skirt' was, she added: "I like to think of it as being the amuse-bouche of the meal," she says of "Skirt." "Your entire meal's not going to be like that; my album's not going to be like that."

Kylie certainly has a penchant for slipping in bits of French, doesn't she.
