"Red Blooded Woman" is a song by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue, taken from her ninth studio album ''Body Language'' (2003). Written by Johnny Douglas and Karen Poole and produced by the former, it is a hip hop, R&B and synthpop track. It contains a vocoded "Boy! Boy!" hook and backing vocals from a choir. It was released globally by Parlophone as the second single from the album on 1 March 2004. The song was well received by music critics, many of whom praised its production and compared it to the work of American music artists Justin Timberlake and Timbaland. Commercially, the single fared well in Minogue's main markets, Australia and the United Kingdom, as it debuted inside the top five of the singles chart in both countries. It also peaked inside the top ten in countries including Denmark and Italy and the top twenty in Germany and New Zealand. It was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ) for completing sales of 7,500 units. A music video for "Red Blooded Woman" was directed by Jake Nava and features Minogue seductively dancing to the track in various locations such as a traffic jam and in front of a truck. Minogue performed it live at the one-off concert show Money Can't Buy and at TV shows like the ''Late Show with David Letterman'' and ''Top of the Pops''. It has also been performing during three of Minogue's concert tours – Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour, Showgirl: The Homecoming Tour, and For You, For Me tour. == Background and composition == Following the global success of her eighth studio album ''Fever'', Minogue began working on her ninth studio album ''Body Language''. Aiming to create a dance-pop album inspired by electronic music from the 1980s, Minogue enlisted collaborators such as Johnny Douglas (who had previously worked with her on ''Light Years'') and Karen Poole. The duo wrote "Red Blooded Woman" together, while Douglas also handled the production of the song. It was selected as the second single from ''Body Language'' and was released globally on 1 March 2004. In the United Kingdom, it was released on 10 March 2004.〔 "Red Blooded Woman" is a hip hop and synthpop track, the former being a genre Minogue newly experimented with on the album.〔 It features a vocoded "Boy! Boy!" hook and "candy-coated ''la la las" which are repeated during the bridge.〔〔 A choir of men also provide backing vocals in a "ghostly" manner, according to ''Slant Magazine'' editor Sal Cinquemani.〔 Similar to numerous songs from the album, "Red Blooded Woman" contains a reference to music from the 1980s: its line "You got me spinning round, round, round, round like a record" alludes to British band Dead or Alive's 1985 song "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)".〔 Remixes by English electronica artists Narcotic Thrust and Whitey were included on the 12-inch picture single. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Blooded Woman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
