While the first single from Minogue's 'Body Language' album--'Slow'--didn't exactly set radio airwaves on fire, programmers and listeners should be more receptive to the excellent set's second offering: 'Red Blooded Woman.' After all, Britney Spears proved that programmers would open up to a second single with her smash 'Toxic.' Certainly Minogue can have a chance at a second single, too. 'Red Blooded Woman' is a sexy, skittery, beat-driven hip-pop number that sounds like a Timbaland production ?but it's not (Johnny Douglas helmed the track). Reminiscent of Justin Timberlake's haunting hit 'Cry Me a River,' Minogue's 'Red Blooded Woman' deserves a shot at mainstream top 40 and rhythmic success. --KC "
