By the Numbers
Body Language keeps Minogue's co-writing at a moderate level: she shares credits on songs like 'Slow,' 'Sweet Music,' 'Someday,' and 'Loving Days' with collaborators such as Karen Poole, Emilíana Torrini, and Dan Carey, while a large share of the album, including 'Red Blooded Woman' and 'Chocolate,' comes from outside writing teams. Her authorship is present but spread thin across a record built more on production texture than on her pen.
Body Language is the ninth studio album by Kylie Minogue, released in November 2003 on Parlophone as the follow-up to the blockbuster Fever. Rather than repeat its disco formula, the album drew on 1980s electro, funk, and hip-hop influences for a sleeker, more rhythmic sound, led by the single 'Slow.' Minogue co-wrote several tracks with collaborators including Karen Poole and Emilíana Torrini, though much of the writing came from outside teams. More understated and less commercially dominant than Fever, the record is remembered as one of her more stylish and experimental pop statements.
