Nathan has confirmed...


And the award for most pointless release goes to...

So the webmaster of Dannii Minogue's official site, the infamous Nathan, has revealed that "Club Disco" is getting a CD release in Australia, no doubt due to the return of the shockingly bad TV variety show "Australia's Got Talent" (on which Dannii is a judge - I don't know how and why she does it, me thinks $$$). It was a huge rater last season, proving Australia will watch anything fed to them, although it did nothing for Dannii's record sales - her last single (no, not the one that was ineligable to chart cause some dumbass at Central Station decided to make a 13 track single that featured 2 of the SAME remix) failed to crack the ARIA Top 30.

Seriously, I don't know why they are bothering with this release. It will sell 20 copies, and even those 20 people (including myself) will already have downloaded it MONTHS ago when it was released digitally in the UK. Half of Disc 1 is already on the 2006 compilation "The Hits & Beyond" while all the remixes on the bonus disc have been previously released on their respective singles. I'm getting rather tired of Dannii (correction, Dannii's people) constantly recycling the same old material over and over again. Lord knows the booklet better be bloody good! It's the only thing about this release that remains a mystery.

On a positive note, "Club Disco" works really well as a sophisticated club album. In fact, it is the 5th studio album Dannii should have released all along! (minus a couple of duds). In terms of the new tracks, "I'm Sorry" is the hit Dannii never had (why on earth crap like "He's The Greatest Dancer" and "Touch Me Like That" are getting released instead is beyond me), and "I Will Come To You" is a total gem. "Feel Like I Do" (originally a b-side to "So Under Pressure") is an under-rated masterpiece.

Someone needs to send mysterious powder to Warner and demand they release the "The Video Collection" DVD here - a Dannii project which was brilliantly executed. A friend of mine bought it online and it looks incredible, and is so comprehensive.
