Contents

"Love at First Sight" received generally positive reviews from music critics; the majority of the critics commended the song's commercial appeal and composition. Minor criticism was towards the production similarities of Minogue's previous singles from Fever. Commercially, it peaked at number three on the ARIA Singles Chart and number two on the UK Singles Chart. It was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). It also charted within the top ten in Canada, Denmark, Ireland, Spain, and New Zealand. In the United States, "Love at First Sight" peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the Dance Club Songs chart.

The accompanying music video for "Love at First Sight" was directed by Johan Renck and features Minogue and her backup dancers in a futuristic maze, all shot in single take motion. The song was first performed on her KylieFever2002 tour and has been featured on all her tours with the exception of the Anti Tour. "Love at First Sight" received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 45th Annual Grammy Awards, becoming Minogue's first Grammy nomination.

Background and release

Following the initial success of Fever and the album's subsequent singles "Can't Get You Out of My Head" and "In Your Eyes", Minogue's label Parlophone decided to release a third single worldwide. [1] [2] Minogue enlisted several producers including Richard Stannard and Julian Gallagher from Biffco, both whom work with Minogue previously; the duo wrote "Love at First Sight", alongside Minogue, Ash Howes and Martin Harrington. [3] It was selected as the third, and second in North America, single from Fever, and was released on 3 June 2002. [4] The single's artwork for "Love at First Sight" was photographed by Nick Knight. [5] [6] During 2002, Minogue launched her Love Kylie lingerie collection and enlisted Knight to photograph her to promote it; out takes were later re-used for the artwork of "Love at First Sight". [7] Knight worked with Minogue once more on "Come into My World". [8] The first artwork features Minogue nude, in front of a blue backdrop and the second disc is a close-up of Minogue with a red tint. [5] [6]

Composition

Produced by Richard Stannard and Julian Gallagher, "Love at First Sight" is a dance-pop and nu-disco song, that came at the end of a period when mainstream dance-pop music had assimilated French house. [9] The song incorporates elements of house music. [10] [11] "Love at First Sight" talks about falling in love with someone "at first sight"; According to Jacqueline Hodges from BBC Music, she said along with the title track, "use tempting lyrics and suggestive panting to underpin a none-too-subtle good time agenda." [12] There are two versions of "Love at First Sight"; the original 2001 album version that lasts for three minutes and 57 seconds, and the North American remix. The North American remix, remixed by Ruff and Jam, was released on the bonus disc of the 2002 special edition of Fever and 12-inch singles of "Love at First Sight". [13] [14]

Critical reception

'Can't Get You Out of My Head' and 'Love at First Sight' are two of the best songs of the last five years, they both provide a perfect synthesis of Kylie's pop princess appeal and her admirable exploration of experimental electronic music. 'Love at First Sight' might even be better, a poppier and even stranger song. Kylie had the audacity to basically rewrite Daft Punk's immortal 'Digital Love' and somehow may have even made it even more perfect than it already was. These songs are super-dense sound collages full of tiny strange little details that reward headphone listening while encouraging, perhaps demanding, dancing.

— Hunter Felt from PopMatters retrospectively commended "Love at First Sight" [15]

"Love at First Sight" received positive reviews from music critics. Chris True from AllMusic was favorable towards the track saying "songs like 'Give It to Me' and 'Love at First Sight,' her maturity helps transcend this limiting tag, making this a very stylish Eurodance record that will appeal to all ages." [10] Alex Needham from NME said the song was "a knickers-aloft disco stormer", [16] while Alexis Petridis from The Guardian commented "Like Robbie Williams's songs, the tracks on Fever are big on easily digestible EDM references. 'Love at First Sight' features the same stuttering disco samples as Stardust's 1998 number-one single 'Music Sounds Better with You'." [17] Michael Hubbard from musicOMH was particularly positive, calling the song "rip-roaring", and said "It would be difficult to pinpoint one duff track on this record, but the more obvious candidates for singles are towards the front of the album – just like her first two records, in fact – especially the rip-roaring frolic that is 'Love at First Sight'." [18] Jason Thompson from PopMatters said the song "opens itself up to the listener with a sexy as hell melody and is one of the sexiest, funkiest classic disco songs that never was... until now." [11] Jacqueline Hodges from BBC Music compared the song to the work of Modjo. [12]

The Abbey Road Sessions version received mixed reviews from most critics. Robert Corpsey from Digital Spy said, "'On a Night Like This', 'Love at First Sight' and 'Can't Get You Out of My Head'" are songs that "all of which have been stripped of their shimmer and allowed the lyrics to come to the fore." [19] A reviewer from Virgin Media was positive, saying "'Love at First Sight' becomes a sweet folk rock noodle in the mould of Jack Johnson or Jason Mraz". [20] However, Susana Novas from What Culture said that "Love at First Sight" was a "low point", saying "‘Love at First Sight’, one of Kylie's most iconic singles that gets the Taylor Swift treatment (not a compliment either)." [21] Philip Matusavage from musicOMH commented "Having 25 years of pop classics to draw on means there can be no arguing with the quality of the songs here, however, which is enough to ensure that the album could not be a complete failure. This is clearer nowhere than on the jangly 'Love at First Sight', the euphoric thrill of which shines through despite here rather unfortunately bringing to mind The Lighthouse Family". [22]

Accolades and recognition

In 2003, "Love at First Sight" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. [23] This became Minogue's first Grammy nomination and was consecutively nominated in the same category for "Come into My World", which she won in 2004, [24] "Slow" in 2005 [25] and "I Believe in You" in 2006. [26] Minogue attended the Grammy Awards opening at Staples Centre in Los Angeles on 8 February that year, her only appearance there. [27] [28] Minogue lost to "Days Go By" by Dirty Vegas. [23] In 2003, "Love at First Sight" and "In Your Eyes" was nominated at the Ivor Novello Awards for "Most Performed Work", but lost to "Just a Little" by Liberty X. [29] In 2009, Pitchfork ranked the song at number 208 in their list of "The Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s". [30] In 2012, Jason Lipshutz from Billboard listed "Love at First Sight" at six on their "Kylie Minogue Primer: The Top 10 Past Hits You Need to Know", stating "Love at First Sight a dance song that's so self-assured that it completely powers down 70 seconds in, lets Minogue's voice float in the ether for two lines, then triumphantly returns, slaking the thirst of its hungry listener." [31]

Chart performance

"Love at First Sight" debuted and peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart, being stalled from the top spot by Elvis Presley and JXL's remix of "A Little Less Conversation". [32] The single was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales and streams of 400,000 units. [33] In Australia, the single peaked at number three on the ARIA Charts. [34] It stayed in the charts for eight weeks and achieved a platinum certification by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipments of 70,000 units. [35] In New Zealand, the single debuted at number 45 on the Official New Zealand Music Chart and ultimately peaked at number nine. [36] It stayed in the charts for 18 weeks and was certified gold by the Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ) for shipments of 7,500 units. [37] In the United States, "Love at First Sight" peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100, which became her third highest-charting single behind her 1988 single "The Loco-Motion" (number three) and her 2001 single "Can't Get You Out of My Head" (number seven). [38] The single also peaked at number one on the Dance Club Songs chart and number ten on the Mainstream Top 40 chart. [38] In Canada, the single peaked at number five, [38] and has sold more than 134,000 units, becoming Minogue's second best-selling single in that country according to Nielsen SoundScan. [39]
