Music Composition
The sound of Girl was distinctively different from Minogue's previous work. This was clearly demonstrated with the lead single "All I Wanna Do", which contained a more emphasized dance sound in contrast to the pop style. This would be felt on the rest of the album. The other tracks on Girl ranged from mature pop songs ("Heaven Can Wait", "Am I Dreaming?", "Everything I Wanted", "It's Amazing") to the more dance oriented ("Disremembrance", "Movin' Up" and bonus tracks "Someone New", "Keep Up With The Good Times"). The album also included notable styles of trance music ("So in Love with Yourself", "If It Moves-Dub It", "Coconut") as well as ambient infused sounds ("Everybody Changes Underwater"), all of which were considered cutting edge for the time. Several of the tracks also embodied strong undertones of electronica music.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or composition:
“Noble and wise men once believed in the music of the spheres: noble and wise men still continue to believe in the “moral significance of existence.” But one day even this sphere-music will no longer be audible to them! They will wake up and take note that their ears were dreaming.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“There is singularly nothing that makes a difference a difference in beginning and in the middle and in ending except that each generation has something different at which they are all looking. By this I mean so simply that anybody knows it that composition is the difference which makes each and all of them then different from other generations and this is what makes everything different otherwise they are all alike and everybody knows it because everybody says it.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
