Aphrodite (song)
"Aphrodite" is a song by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue, taken from her eleventh studio album of the same name (2010). Written and produced by Nerina Pallot and Andy Chatterley, the song was included as the title track on the album, which was released on 5 July 2010. It was later included in the tracklist of Minogue's seventh extended play, ''A Christmas Gift'', which was released on 1 December 2010. The song is a dance-pop track in which Minogue personifies herself as Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and procreation.
Upon the album's release, "Aphrodite" was met with critical acclaim by most music critics, many of whom noted it to be one of the album's strongest tracks. Even though the song was not released as a single, it managed to peak at number six on the Ultratip chart in Belgium, and at number 25 on the Belgian Airplay chart. "Aphrodite" was a part of the setlist for Minogue's Aphrodite: Les Folies Tour in 2011, which was launched to promote its parent album. The song was performed as the concert tour's opening track.

"Aphrodite" was written and produced by British singer-songwriter Nerina Pallot and her husband Andy Chatterley.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ultratop.be/nl/showitem.asp?interpret=Kylie+Minogue&titel=Aphrodite&cat=s )〕 The song was included in the tracklist of Minogue's eleventh studio album of the same name, which was released on 5 July 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kylie.com/discography/albums/aphrodite/ )〕 Pallot and Chatterley also collaborated with Minogue on the song "Better than Today", which was released as the third single off the album.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kylie.com/discography/singles/better-than-today/ )〕 Pallot commented about working with Minogue, saying that "I feel very lucky that I've fallen on my feet like this. She's really accommodating and lovely and approachable and normal." "Aphrodite" was also included on Minogue's seventh extended play ''A Christmas Gift'' alongside the songs "Can't Beat the Feeling" and "Santa Baby".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/a-christmas-gift-ep/id407966543 )〕 The extended play was released on 1 December 2010.〔
Musically, "Aphrodite" is a nineties-influenced dance-pop song which features a "foot-stomping" beat and "military drummed" instrumentation, similar to that of a marching band. Stuart Price likened the song to Janet Jackson for its "‘Rhythm Nation’-esque qualities." The song is penned like a dance anthem through which Minogue "brags" about her sexual prowess; she warns that she is not a person meant to be confronted and angered, as heard in the lines "I'm fierce and I'm feeling mighty/Don't you mess with me, you don't wanna fight me".
