5. Sensitized: During The Kylie Party — a one-off special at the end of 2007 to promote the release of X in late 2007 — Queen Kylie climbed aboard a mechanical bull and launched into a steamy, pant-tightening tease — gyrating and grinding her way through X‘s “Sensitized” aboard the bucking bronco.
It couldn’t have been a more appropriate set-up for the song: That lusciously seductive, ’60’s French-pop-infused gallop of a beat simply begs for a good ridin’ — and Miss Minogue’s no stranger to cowboy style. Easily X‘s most erotic offering, the Guy Chambers-produced “Sensitized” sees Miss Minogue cooing and moaning her way atop a genius sample of Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot‘s “Bonnie & Clyde.” “Baby, you trip the switch and I’m sensitized,” KM breathily purrs. It’s seduction at its finest — giddy up.
