Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other uses Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song "All I See" is a song recorded by Australian Kylie Minogue for her tenth studio album, X (2007). The song was written by Jonas Jeberg, Mich Hedin Hansen, Edwin "Lil' Eddie" Serrano and produced by Jeberg and Cutfather. It was released digitally as a single in North America on 11 March 2008. The song was released to American radio formats on 15 April 2008. A version featuring rapper Mims was released to radio formats and included as a bonus track on the American edition of X. On 22 November 2008, the song was also released as the fifth single from, X in Australia. Musically, the song is an R&B song. The song contains an interpolation from Gap Band's "Outstanding", which was written by Raymond Calhoun.

Release

To promote the single and the album in the United States, Minogue appeared on several television programmes. On 31 March 2008, she appeared on the Today show for an interview with Matt Lauer. On 1 April, Minogue performed "All I See" live on Dancing with the Stars. On 7 April 2008, Minogue appeared and performed "All I See" on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The single was particularly released in the US and in Canada to boost Minogue's image in the States, as it appeared she had a low profile, but the song only managed to peak at number 3 in the US dance charts.

Music video

The accompanying music video for "All I See" was directed by William Baker, Minogue's creative director. It was filmed in three hours while Minogue was on break from KylieX2008 tour rehearsals. The video premiered on Minogue's website on 18 April 2008. Filmed in black-and-white, it features Minogue in various outfits accompanied by dancer Marco da Silva, dancing in front of a white background. The singer described the visual as "Very low-fi, just Willie and Marco (one of my dancers) and a white backdrop. And, as I always say...'When in doubt, apply more glitter!'. Girl can't get enough of a glitter drop!".

Critical response

"All I See" received generally mixed reviews from most music critics. Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine gave it an extended review. He said:

Minogue has churned out three singles from her album X since its international release last year, but it's another song, "All I See," that will be the record's official first single in the U.S. It's one of only three tracks that don't seem to fit the otherwise consistent Euro-disco mash-up of the singer's 10th studio album (the belated Ray of Light rip-off "No More Rain" and the Fergie/Gwen-meets-the-Pussycat-Dolls-meets-"SexyBack" monstrosity that is "Nu-Di-Ty" are the other offenders), but that's exactly why it's a perfect fit for this country. In his review of X, Slant critic Dave Hughes compared "All I See" to Janet Jackson's 1997 "Together Again," and while the breathy vocals are totally Janet, the rest of the song is a virtual carbon copy of Ne-Yo's "Because of You," right down to the measured 4/4 beat and harpsichord.

If radio programmers could find room on their playlists for Natasha Bedingfield's market-pandering "Love Like This," then surely they can find space for "All I See." Although a remix featuring MIMS will be serviced to radio stations soon, there's still no video in sight, so if the song fails, Minogue's American fans can blame her record label, which hasn't figured out how to market the superstar in the U.S. since "Can't Get You Out of My Head".

Live performances

To promote the single's release in the United States, Minogue appeared on some television shows to perform "All I See". She sang the track along with "Can't Get You Out of My Head" live on the results show of Dancing with the Stars on 1 April 2008. For the number, she wore a platinum blonde bobbed wig, red sequined mini-dress and gold platform shoes; it was her first performance on American television in five years, and was watched by an audience of 20 million viewers. Minogue also performed the song on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and at selected shows of the KylieX2008 concert tour.
