Fresh off her hit “Padam Padam,” Kylie Minogue has dropped her new single and title track from her upcoming 16th studio album Tension.
Like its predecessor, “Tension” features the electro-pop, ready-to-remix, featuring sexy lyrics from the Australian singer ready for a DJ set at queer bars. “Don’t be shy, boy, I don’t bite/You know where, touch me right, ta-ta/Oh my god, touch me right there.”
Minogue co-wrote the new track with Kamille, Anya Jones, and Jon Green, along with producers Biff Stannard and Duck Blackwell. She...

Following the success of her viral hit “Padam Padam,” Aussie pop icon Kylie Minogue has dropped the title track from her forthcoming album, Tension. It’s the third track to be released from the album.
“Tension,” which sound like it could have been lifted from Minogue’s eclectic 2008 effort X, is the most forward-minded track on the new album. The electro-pop song begins with ’90s house-style keyboards and a propulsive dance beat before pivoting toward something more leftfield, though no less infectious.
The singer’s stuttering, processed vocal hook is what an AI might sound like being brought to a heady, simulated climax: “Oh, my god/Touch me right there/Almost there, touch me right there.” While the track is unlikely to match the proverbial peak of “Padam Padam,” it should keep fans’ BPMs elevated until Tension drops on September 22nd.
Listen to “Tension” below:
The music video for the song premieres tomorrow.

Kylie Minogue just wants to feel the beat of your heart, going “pa-dam, pa-dam” (as she writes it), on her new single, “Padam Padam.” In the video, Minogue writhes, wiggles, and shivers as her sheer, red cape defies the laws of physics floating all around her as she and her dancers, all dressed in red, beat their hands on their hearts. “Padam, padam, I hear it and I know,” she sings over a techno-pop backdrop produced by Lostboy, “Padam, padam, I know you want to take me home.” She also...
