"Slow" is a song by Australian singer Kylie Minogue from her ninth studio album, Body Language (2003). It was released as the lead single from the album by Festival Mushroom Records and Parlophone on 3 November 2003. The song was written by Minogue, Dan Carey, Emilíana Torrini, and produced by Carey, Torrini, and Sunnyroads. "Slow" is an electropop and synth-pop song in which Minogue invites a man to "slow down" and dance with her.

Upon its release, "Slow" was acclaimed by music critics, many of whom praised Minogue's sensual and seductive vocals. At the 47th Grammy Awards ceremony, the song received a nomination in the category of "Best Dance Recording". Commercially, the song was a success and peaked at number one on the singles charts in Australia, Denmark, Romania, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The song also reached number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs in the United States. In Australia, the song was certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for sales of 70,000 units.

An accompanying music video for the song was shot in Barcelona, Spain, and features Minogue singing the song while sunbathing next to the Piscina Municipal de Montjuïc swimming pool. Minogue performed the song on a number of television shows and included it on the set lists of all of her subsequent concert tours to date, with the exception of the Anti Tour. In 2012, Minogue named "Slow" as her favourite song from her music career; in 2023, she cited it as a reference point for her album of that year, Tension.

"Slow" was written by Kylie Minogue, Dan Carey, and Emilíana Torrini, and produced by Carey, Torrini, and Sunnyroads.[1] In 2009, Torrini explained how she was approached for writing the song, saying "It was like I had just accidentally walked into the line of fire with, "Hey! You There! It was all quite surreal. I still think Kylie's people were trying to call Jamelia, and they just got the wrong number. It'd be much more funny if that is how it actually happened".[2] Through the lyrics of the song, Minogue urges a man, whom she meets at a club, to "slow down" and dance with her.[3] According to Minogue, the lyrics of the song are about "how time and space have a different meaning when you meet someone".[4] She further said that she "loved the way the song had this push-pull effect; the musical and lyrical combination gives you a sense of that".[4]

Musically, the song is an eighties-inspired electropop and synth-pop track.[5][6] It utilises a very simple and "minimalist" style of production and was described as an "electro-pop/disco fusion with percolating crackle-and-pop beats and sugary vocal overdubs" by Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine.[5] Additionally, it contains elements of electroclash and club music.[7] According to Tom Ewing of Freaky Trigger, the gentle bassline and 'shimmering' backing of "Slow" are derived from the then-popular microhouse genre, comparing it to the music found on the German label Kompakt.[8] Dom Passantino of Stylus Magazine similarly described it as "German minimalist techno" similar to the work of Reinhard Voigt,[9] while Alex Macpherson of The Guardian, in an article of German minimal techno, said "Slow" was "essentially a minimal track with an added pop vocal" and an early instance of the sound achieving mainstream success.[10] Tim Sendra of AllMusic called it a revamp of disco, specifically the subgenre of space disco.[11]

In late 2012, "Slow" was re-recorded by Minogue for inclusion in her orchestral compilation album The Abbey Road Sessions.[12] On the album, Minogue reworked 16 of her past songs with an orchestra, which, according to Nick Levine from BBC Music, "re-imagine them without the disco glitz and vocal effects".[13] "Slow" is approached with a more jazz and trip hop influenced take, with Minogue again delivering sultry and seductive vocals.[12][13] The song was written in the key of B♭ minor.

## Release and artwork

[edit]

"Slow" was released as the lead single from Minogue's ninth studio album, Body Language, by Festival Mushroom Records in Australia and by Parlophone in Europe on 3 November 2003.[14] The cover art of the single, as well as other promotion shoots related to the album, which was shot by fashion photographers Mert and Marcus, show Minogue striking a pose in a black and white striped crop top, which reveals her midriff, and low-cut pants. Her appearance is similar to that of French actress and singer Brigitte Bardot.[4] Minogue described the promotion shoots as "the perfect mix of coquette, kitten and rock 'n' roll", and revealed that "We shot it on location in the South of France, so it was [easy to] channel the spirit of [Brigitte] Bardot. She's a great iconic reference, particularly that period where she was working with Serge Gainsbourg".[4]

## Critical reception

[edit]

"Slow" was critically acclaimed by music critics. Ethan Brown from New York praised the production of the song and commented "Everything at the top of the pops should sound as good as Kylie Minogue's "Slow"". He further felt that most of the songs on Body Language "mimic its sound, [though] none of the other songs on Body Language come close to the achievement of "Slow" and concluded that ""Slow" should be a template for pop singers who fancy themselves aesthetes".[15] Adrien Begrand from PopMatters commented that the song was "one of the strongest singles" of Minogue's career, praising her minimalistic approach on the song and its simple arrangement.[16] The Spin magazine review of the song complimented Minogue's vocals, saying that they will "bring all the boys to the yard".[17] Eric Seguy from Stylus Magazine favoured Minogue's demanding vocals, saying that the listener "is open to Kylie’s demands, and willing to resort to any means necessary to impress her".[18] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine felt that the song is one of the "few of the tracks on Body Language approach(ing) the club-thumping zeal of Fever".[5] Chris True from AllMusic picked the song as an album highlight of Body Language.[7] Olive Pometsey from GQ deemed it Minogue's best and most "seductive" track, concluding that "featuring breathy vocals over seductive synths, it's the kind of song that would soundtrack that moment when you accidentally lock eyes with a hot stranger in a club perfectly [...] is indeed a slower track, but don't write it off that reason".[19]

The Abbey Road Sessions' version of the song also generated a favourable response. Tim Sendra from AllMusic enjoyed the "sultry trip-hop take" on the song and picked it as a highlight on the album.[12] Nick Levine from BBC Music felt that "Slow" received the "most startling makeover" on the album, and described it as a "slinky jazz shuffle, complete with vampish vocal performance".[13] Annie Zaleski from The A.V. Club appreciated the song's graceful nature, calling it a "slinky come-on".[20] Philip Matusavage from MusicOMH appreciated the song's jazz influences, noting that it "suggests that Kylie and jazz could make for great things".[21] Jeff Katz from Idolator singled out the song as the "Most Surprising Reworking" on the album.[22] Jude Rogers from The Quietus, however, felt that the song does not "respond well to this (orchestral) treatment".[23]

### Accolades and recognition

[edit]

Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine included "Slow" on his list of "Top 10 Singles & Videos of 2004" at number five, calling it "one of the hottest tracks of the year."[24] At the 2004 Ivor Novello Awards ceremony, "Slow" received a nomination in the categories "Best Contemporary Song" and "International Hit of the Year", but lost the awards to Amy Winehouse's song "Stronger Than Me" and Dido's song "White Flag", respectively.[25][26] At the 47th Grammy Awards ceremony held in the year 2005, "Slow" was nominated for "Best Dance Recording", but lost to Britney Spears's song "Toxic", which was originally written for Minogue.[27] In order to celebrate Valentine's Day on 14 February 2012, UK copyright collection society and performance rights organisation PRS for Music compiled a list of the top ten "sexy songs" and placed "Slow" on the top of the list.[28] In 2012, Minogue picked "Slow" as her all-time favourite song from her 25 years in music;[29] in 2023, she cited the song as a reference point for her album of that year, Tension.[30] Writing for the Herald Sun, Cameron Adams placed it at number 5 on his list of the singer's best songs in honor of her 50th birthday, calling it "'Can't Get You Out of My Head''s emo cousin – also with a deceptively simple electronic pulse, but taking a much darker tone [...] vocally Kylie moves from detached to carnal in the space of a verse, and somehow ["Slow"] sounds like everything and nothing is happening all at once".[31]

## Music video

The accompanying music video for "Slow" was directed by Baillie Walsh and choreographed by Michael Rooney.[50] The video was shot in Barcelona, Spain,[51] and begins with a scene of a man diving into the Piscina Municipal de Montjuïc swimming pool[52] and coming out of its edge, where a number of very lightly beachwear-clad people are sunbathing. Minogue stands out in a series of different zoom central shots lying on a sky-blue towel wearing a dark blue bodyhugging Balenciaga dress.[49] The next scenes of the video capture her singing the song through different camera angles, particularly during the chorus when the camera angle shifts to a "bird's eye" view and show Minogue amid beach models performing synchronised choreography to the dance beats.[51] A reviewer from District MTV commented that the video showed that "synchronised sun bathing is more fun than it sounds".[51] Ben Taylor from Swide Magazine included the video in his list of Minogue's "Best Music Video Moments".[53] Used for promoting the song, the video premiered earlier than the song's release date, on 21 October 2003.[50] Minogue talked about the video, saying:

> "The video is set in Barcelona at the Olympic Diving site. I lie down for the whole video, which I thought was a very cunning plan. But then I ended up having to sing directly into the camera when the sun was right next it, so tears were streaming down my face! Videos always have a painful moment. It's either too hot or it's too cold or there's always something. That's part of the fun, I guess"[4]

## Live performances

[edit]

Minogue performed "Slow" on 6 November 2003, at the 2003 MTV Europe Music Awards.[54][55] Since its release, "Slow" has been featured on all of Minogue's concert tour set lists, with the exception of the Anti Tour. In 2003, she performed the song on the one-night only concert Money Can't Buy, which was used to promote Body Language and was held at major entertainment venue Hammersmith Apollo in London.[56] In 2005, she performed the song on her Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour. Minogue was unable to complete the tour as she was diagnosed with early breast cancer and had to cancel the Australian leg of the tour.[57] After undergoing treatment and recovery, she resumed the concert tour in the form of Showgirl: The Homecoming Tour in 2007.[58] In 2008, she performed the song on the KylieX2008 tour, which was launched to promote her tenth studio album X. The show was split in five acts and "Slow" was featured on the fourth act entitled "Xposed".[59]

In 2009, she performed the song on the For You, for Me tour, which was her first concert tour in North America.[60] In 2011, she performed a jazz-oriented version of the song on the Aphrodite: Les Folies Tour, which was launched to promote her eleventh studio album Aphrodite.[61] In 2012, Minogue promoted The Abbey Road Sessions by performing on the BBC Proms in the Park at Hyde Park, London. During the event, she sang the orchestral version of "Slow".[62] In 2014 and 2015, Minogue performed the song during her Kiss Me Once Tour and Kylie Summer 2015 Tour respectly. The performances employed a laser lighting display and featured a "Matrix-style" break-dance routine.[63] For the Golden Tour in 2018–19, Minogue performed a "leather-bar version" of the song;[64] she was dressed in an all-leather ensemble and was surrounded by a group of motorbike-riding men.[citation needed] Writing for news.com.au, Nick Bond felt the performance showcased the singer's ability to "breathe new life into some of her most inescapable hits via canny new arrangements".[65]

A "pulsating" mashup of "Slow" and David Bowie's "Fashion" (1980) was performed during Minogue's 2019 summer tour. She wore a hot red racing driver outfit and was joined by male dancers in pink blazers and kilts.[66][67] The performance was highlighted by the Evening Standard's Thomas Hobbs as one of the show's best moments. Hobbs also praised the singer for looking "every inch the icon".[67] Minogue repeated the performance during her appearance at The Graham Norton Show in November 2019.[68] A "sexy, languid disco" mashup of "Slow" and Donna Summer's "Love to Love You Baby" (1975) was performed by the singer, who wore a gold 1970s-inspired jumpsuit, on her 2020 live stream concert Infinite Disco.[69] The performance was praised by i's Kate Solomon, who highlighted its "sultry, bassy arrangement".[70]
