The album consisted mainstream pop music, but included R&B, Funk, Electropop and Hip-Hop music, even included rapping in her song "Secret (Take You Home)". The title "Body Language" also came from the song "Slow". 'Body Language" received generally mixed to positive reviews, who did praise Minogue for a more independent and risk-taking chances, but was criticized for its different style. While Body Language failed to reach the chart and sales success of its predecessor, 2001's Fever, it still managed to chart inside the top five in several countries. It was certified double platinum in Australia, platinum in the United Kingdom and gold in Austria. In addition, the album has sold 177,000 units in the United States as of March 2011.
