Album Review: Kylie - Kylie Christmas

Liz Giuffre

"It would take even the hardest of Grinch bastards to really, truly hate it."

More Kylie Minogue Kylie Minogue

Who knew Kylie would so well suit old school Hollywood Christmas? 

There are some unexpected anomalies like the duet with Frank Sinatra on Santa Claus Is Coming To Town (ah, the magic of modern technology), and the duet with Iggy Pop on Christmas Wrapping is just plain mock rock strange. It's not clear how willing (or not) Iggy was on this, although it's so strange that he just might have even been driving the whole thing. Only You is strictly not a Christmas tune, but when you add James Corden it would take even the hardest of Grinch bastards to really, truly hate it.
