I think that's what typically runs through my head when someone mentions her name. I have a feeling that's the case for many people in the U.S. in particular.

You just can't get it out of your head, eh?

But seriously, HUGE crush on Kylie. Part of me is surprised she's unmarried, but I get the feeling she's sexy and she knows it and she's just having fun with it.

More power to her. I love her.

I like that she's not a tryhard seeking attention all the time unlike Maddona yet she's still going. I should be so lucky is so fun and she's so cute.

She's been in the game for decades, one of the few singers with true longevity but she doesn't get mentioned all that often like the other successful singers on her level (of which there are few). I guess it's because she never quite smashed in North America even though she's well known in the rest of the world? Her tours do well and she shows no signs of becoming a legacy act.

It's because unlike a lot of the other flash in the pop artists around in the last few years the music does the talking for her.

Looking at her run she's had is actually breathtaking. Even going back to her Stock,Aitken,Waterman days those songs still sound so good. Kind of weird to know that 'I should be lucky' came out on 29 December 1987.

That is crazy.

Not one of her better known songs, but for some reason it always gets stuck in my head and I like it. Reminds me of some of her earlier stuff as well.

Better Than Today

I like the bass line in the verse sections of this too:

Timebomb
 
Still love Kylie, but I think her best work was in her "indie" period, with her "Kylie Minogue" and "Impossible Princess" albums. After that she went back to pure pop, but I still miss Indie Kylie.

Naaah, she's straight up wack!!

I'm fucking surprised that she's been in the game so long. She ain't sexy, tiny stick insect with horse-teeth. She got booty without being bootylicious. I still would, though.

And her vocal range is so limited. We've never heard any vocal gymnastics come from here. Her vocal volume is low too, only singing a notch above standard talking.

Nice lady and she beat cancer so good luck to her there. As far as a singer? Painting by numbers and a success in the UK when the UK had a complete lack of female diva style pop stars.

OP also completely fucked on mobile.

Love Kylie, always have & always will.



My fave is Loving Days

Best video imo is On A Night Like This

Kylie seems to get even better the older she gets, i would wife her in a nano-second, she always comes across as a very nice person with a personality to match, hope this is just not too good to be true.

She was never the greatest singer, but she used what she had and mixed it with sex appeal, professionalism, hard work, drive, a great attitude, commitment to her fans, a willingness to reinvent and the ability to find and work with the right people.

Yeah Kyle was definitely a guilty pleasure when I was younger, she has a lot of catchy songs

I like that acoustic version of I Believe In You that's on an advert in the UK at the moment

Neogaf shit posts?
 
The way she moves in that "Can't get you out of my head" video is pure sex. I'm not really a fan of her genre of music but I respect her because she is a good actress (liked her in Holy Motors and Doctor Who) and she won a battle against cancer. Plus she just seems like a nice down-to-earth lady compared to most divas.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
I am SCREAMING @ the fact that Kylie was Cammy in that dreadful live action Street Fighter movie. I saw it as a kid but didn't even realize it was her until now that a few people have brought it up in this thread. I wonder if the horrendous fighting game they made based on the Street Fighter movie used Kylie's image as Cammy's sprite?

Speaking of her appearing in movies, I was happy to see her pop up as the Green Fairy in Moulin Rouge

Was hoping she was a comedian. Love to see female comedians get praise more than singers/actresses/models.

i went to see her last year, the arrangement of can't get you out of my head she performed simply [ e n d e d ] me

one of the all-time greatest pop songs, and all round incredible and iconic artiste

not to mention she punched breast cancer into submission and the 'kylie effect' from her being open about her cancer literally saved lives

when will your fucking fave? simply never.

[edit] her dancers are always like...ridiculously hot, too

There is no artist that can beat Kylie's shows. I went to Europe many times just for her shows. A true showgirl who deserves a lot more credit.

Wow, so I never really payed attention to her since we don't see much of her in the States, but she's like super hot.

Music is not cup of tea, but she's smoking.
 
It sort of surprises me how many Kylie songs I like. She just seems to release music without a lot of fanfare, but it's almost always good stuff.

I'm mainly here for 2000-2010 era disco/pop Kylie though. What a winning streak of In Your Eyes, Love at First Sight, Come into my World, Slow, Chocolate, I Believe in You, 2 Hearts, Wow, In My Arms, The One...


The more recent Skirt is also great.
 
I for one am disappointed that she's not touring in America for her Kiss Me Once tour. Did her last visit flop back in 2011? Did she allow herself to be pigeonholed as a gay act play into her inability to crack the American market? She was hot and talented back in the 2000's, and I always found her to be more talented than Britney Spears ever was during her peak period. Was she record sales poison, because she always seemed a step up in the Euro market.

I discovered her on an accidental viewing of Moulin Rouge and fell in love with her ever since. She's not the greatest singer, but damn, can she put on a show.

She doesn't seem to take herself too seriously.

Can't wait for KMO tour to hit bluray.
