'Girl' is the third album from Dannii Minogue, and is her first adult album. All the tracks are influenced by trance, which was cutting edge at the time. My only complaint is that 'Girl' finishes to soon.
'All I Wanna Do' - A top 10 hit for Dannii, a dance number thats similar to Britney Spears singing that she's not that innocent. 10/10
'Heaven Can Wait' - 70's style pop mixed with trance undertones, all combined to make a track perfect for summer evenings. 9/10
'So In Love With Yourself' - We go back to solid trance for this track. A quite bitter track which features Kylie Minogue on backing vocals. 10/10
'Am I Dreaming' - We stay with trance for this, which is a beautiful song, about falling in love. 10/10
'Everybody Changes Underwater' - I don't know how to describe this unusual track, which has Dannii talking for most of it. I have never heard another song quite like this. You should hear this for yourself. 8/10
'Everthing I Wanted' - This tracks plays with vocal effects, with great results. Another trance number. 9/10
'If It Moves - Dub It' - This is the weakest track on the album, yet it is still listenable, despite the overly repeated lyrics. 7/10
'Disremembrance' - This is a standout track along with 'Am I Dreaming?'. The trance music coupled with the ballad lyrics is great, a welcome change from todays weepy numbers. 10/10
'It's Amazing' - Like 'Disremembrance' and 'Am I Dreaming', trance music is coupled with ballad vocals. 10/10
'Movin' Up' - More of a clubbing track, you will be 'Movin' Up' to the dancefloor. A great bridge between albums 'Girl' and 'Neon Nights'. 8/10
'Coconut' - Dannii's cover of 'Lime In Da Coconut' hidden at the end of 'Movin' Up'. At first this may seem cheesy, but it will grow on you. 9/10

CD1
'All I Wanna Do' - (UK #4 commercial, #1 dance) This is the high selling single that marked the transition from teeny bopper pop to adult dance for Dannii.
'Heaven Can Wait' - 70's style pop mixed with trance undertones, this track always puts a smile on my face!!
'So In Love With Yourself' - We go back to solid trance for this track. A quite bitter track which features Kylie Minogue on backing vocals.
'Am I Dreaming' - We stay with dancey pop for this, which is a beautiful song - one of my favourites on the album.
'Everybody Changes Underwater' - I don't know how to describe this unusual track, which has Dannii simply reciting the lyrics for most of it. I have never heard another song quite like this. You should hear this for yourself.
'Everything I Wanted' - (#15 c #1 d) This single was very different for Dannii, it's not dance, it's not very 'pop', but cit's an experiment that worked for Dannii. I love it.
'If It Moves - Dub It' - A dub of MOVIN' UP, this is the weakest track on the album, yet it is still listenable, despite the overly repeated lyrics. Another more experimental piece for Dannii.
'Disremembrance' - (#21 c #1 d) This is another standout track. The dance music coupled with the ballad lyrics is great, one of my favourite Dannii singles.
'It's Amazing' - More traditional balled melodies (almost orchestral) music is coupled with ballad vocals, which a trance undertone. Dannii's vocals are fantastic.
'Movin' Up' - More of a clubbing track, this is `heavier' then her usual work. A great bridge between albums GIRL and NEON NIGHTS. This is the extended mix, different to the original GIRL album.
`Keep Up With The Good Times' - This track has never been released, so I can't wait to hear it!!!
Someone New (Radio Edit) - The original Japanese GIRL album had a mix of this track on, but this unheard edit apparently is like a completely different song.
'Coconut' - At first listen this may seem cheesy - but be warned - this will become hopelessly stuck in your head.
`All I Wanna Do' (Trouser Enthusiasts Radio Edit) - This mix has never been commercially released before.
`Everything I Wanted' (Xenomania Radio Edit) - I think this mix is better then the album mix.
`Disremembrance' (Trouser Enthusiasts Radio Edit) - This mix has never been released onto CD before.

Dannii hits again with the 1997 release of Girl. The album is great. Any Dannii or Kylie fan must have it. From the first song to the last Girl is a great dance album. If you can get a Girl CD with the bonus song Coconut, you'll love the CD! This album is great showing Dannii's growth as an artist and as a songwriter. The dance beats and great lyrics keep you dancing for days. Good Work Dannii.
Movin' up... May 27, 2004

This album from 1997 represented the return of an all new, fully blossomed Dannii Minogue. Although the album was criminally overlooked, the first single, "All I Wanna Do" was her most successful up to this point, hitting #4 on the UK charts. Unfortunately, the success of that single didn't translate into album sales (which peaked at #57 in the UK). With "Girl" Dannii made a significant, almost dramatic break from the past.
From the epic trance sound of "All I Wanna Do" and "Disremembrance" to "Everybody Changes Underwater" with it's mix of drum n' bass and lush, spacious soundscapes, the direction on this album was a creative quantum leap away from her first two albums, which, in my opinion were average, pedestrian pop albums at best (and that's still being kind).Producers on the album include Xenomania (Brian Higgins, Matt Gray and team), Flexifinger (Ian Masterson and David Green) and Metro (Mark Taylor and Brian Rawling) - who were in high demand later on, after having major hits on Cher's "Believe" album.. Overall, "Girl" was a competent bid for credibility on both the pop and club scenes. The entire album has a mature, almost atmospheric sound, that regardless of it's commercial achievements - is a creative pinnacle in Ms. Minogue's career. Who knew that the girl who chirped ditties like "Love and Kisses" and "Love's On Every Corner" could make an album this good. Recommended listening for anyone who enjoys solid, mature and well produced pop music.

Once I heard Dannii's most recent album, "Neon Nights" and immediately became a fan of hers, I started buying her other albums, knowing I wouln't be disappointed. Well I was right. "Girl" is a terrific album with catchy tunes, and different ballads. My most favorite song is the famous "All I wanna do", which no matter how many times you listen to it, you never get tired of it.
