[My remarks] Totally shocking! Earning an 8 from yours truly, I always enjoyed the song, but never considered it a highlight. To see so many fans definitely surprised me, but it deserves the love. Congrats on placing second in the Aphrodite rate, Cupid Boy!

Great intro love her voice in the verses, that soft touch. OMG that key change between the verse and pre chorus slays   Then it get's better, Chorus makes me feel like I'm in heaven 

@ReidOne (10)
**** YES THIS SONG. Kylie and Sebastian Ingrosso. AKA, HEAVEN for me. This song is so sexy and cool. It's the "Love Affair" of this album. The pre-chorus is EVERYTHING.

@Gia Gunn (10)
I didn't know I could be scalped more than twice oh my god Kylie stop it goddamit, my wigs are expensive

@Dr Evil (10)
One of my faves for sure. Love the bass guitar and Kylie's lower octaves. I'm in heaven.

@VOLANTIS (10)
As the song progresses it just keeps taking you to new heights of euphoria. The heavenly vocals deserve Grammys.

@takemetovenus (10)
Electric Chapel vibes but still a good song on its own.

@Antonio (10)
She is a bop, bee oh, pee.

@IndieKylie (9)
I sound like a broken record, but yes, one of the strongest tracks on the album as well. I love the rock undertones (let me clarify, the song is not remotely rock) fueling the pop production. A catchy song with strong production, one of the most consistent qualities of the album (even for the more forgettable tracks). Cupid Boy is definitely one of the more iconic non-singles of the album.

"Sky rocket to Mars
Straight through to your heart
Every time we touch
I'm shooting the stars"
I know Kylie didn't write this, but it's what G.U.Y. wishes it could be. I could honestly see "Cupid Boy" being on ARTPOP and coming right after "Venus." The guys would be so slain if that ever did happen, they would not know what to do

And the winner of the Aphrodite megarate, by a LANDSLIDE...

[#1] Get Outta My Way
[Score] 9.76

[My remarks] Winning by a landslide, the victor garnered the most 11s of this entire rate (including from me!). I consider this song the centerpiece of the entire album; everything about it is classic Kylie, and it holds up almost a decade later without sounding aged at all. Truly pop perfection, and totally deserving of its position! Congratulations to the winner of the Aphrodite megarate!

@Dr Evil 11
This electronically beefed-up bop has the catchiest backdrop of any Kylie song. That's how you ditch a man for a better one. Adios! It's my instant fave upon first listen. HER BEST SONG 

@ReidOne 11
Probably the best Kylie song since the 'Fever' era. When you look up the word "bop" in the dictionary, it should mention this. GOD BLESS ALESSO for giving it new life years later! I still hear this one in the US gay bars regularly. 

@VOLANTIS 11
This song is everything and more. Lyrically, the production everything about this is a banger. For a song dedicated to successfully getting over a relationship this has extremely well formed lyrics that’s just satisfying on the ears. Easily the best song on the album.

@Antonio 11
A complete bop, I just love the part when she sings "this is what'll happen if you ain't giving your girl what she needs". I love this song.

@IndieKylie 10
One of Kylie's best singles, and most iconic, this song deserved to scale the charts well beyond any of its international peaks. That being said, the opening piano rhythms and vocals remain infectious and fun.

@takemetovenus 10
LOVE THIS SONG, has such a fun Carly Rae Jepsen vibe to it.

@CowSiss 8
Reminds me a lot of "Get Together" by Madonna, which kind of makes sense since Stuart Price was involved in both songs. It's cute and a strong pop song. It isn't high tier pop like "Bad Romance" or "All the Lovers", but it's just below it

@petedagrk 6.5
Compared to the rest of the album, forgettable, but not bad by any mean

Let's give it up for Miss Minogue who's still slaying us all with bops and bangers after all these years, the true queen of the gays  And for @jujubae who managed to host an iconiqué rate while promoting the queen we don't deserve
