![]() ![]() God it might have been a flop of an album, but this one is a 5/5 song. It’s a little meh, and I’d admit I’d probably skip when playing a Kylie playlist on Spotify, but I’ve always got to respect where an artist started. A pure 80’s tune that went to number one in eight countries. Time will tell on this one.įrom the album that kicked it all of, this one is extremely repetitive, but I can’t knock it. On the other I already like it more than the previously discussed tracks. One one hand I was expecting something a little more bolder from an album called “Disco”. This was hard to place considering it was only released a few hours ago. Honestly though with our pop princess turning 50 it made sense for her to be making a song that was a little more introspective, while still having fun singing about going out dancing. I might have this ranked higher than most, due to seeing her perform it live last year at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl (it remains one of my favourite concerts). Sure Golden wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but it looks like it was the move that Kylie needed to make at the time. No one can complain though as “2 Hearts” went to the top of the ARIA Charts in Australia, and cracked the top ten in the UK. Then to find out that “2 Hearts” wasn’t even her song, but instead a cover from Kish Mauve, an British electronic duo. I was so close to just writing about “Wow” instead, as it’s the song I think of most from the album X. Honestly if the pop quiz question was “What was the lead single off Kylie’s album X?”, I would have got. Would recommend checking out her acoustic version that was released on The Abbey Road Sessions, as it’s a perfect example of the profound lyrics that can be hidden in pop songs under all the noise. ![]() Despite being released eighteen months after her first album, there isn’t much that is distinctive between the two. I feel bad lumping in another PWL single this early in the rankings, considering Kylie wouldn’t have a career without these early hits, but it’s also an indication of how successful her music has continued to be. A song that is incredibly dated by the new jack swing that was popular in the early 90’s, and also from her least successful album to date, it’s no surprise I’ve ranked it so low. If you want an indication of what Kylie thinks of this one, look no further than her greatest hits two disc collection Step Back in Time: The Definitive Collection, where “Word Is Out” could only make it onto the expanded edition. That song has actually become a Christmas staple in the last five years. Also how was “Every Day’s Like Christmas” not the lead single. Look it isn’t terrible and James Corden was actually bearable for once, but this was never going to be ranked above anything else considering it was from a Christmas album. I was in two minds if I should even include this from Kylie Christmas. Only You (featuring James Corden) – Kylie Christmas Now as Ru would say, let the best song…win.ġ5. With Kylie Minogue dropping her new track, “Say Something”, from the forthcoming album Disco, I thought it would be a fantastic time to do a quick little ranking of all the “singing budgie’s” lead singles. ![]()
