Coming soon!

[Eddie.]

Red Blooded Woman better win. :laugh:

[TomC]

You should do a Madonna one too!

[Nicky91]

:love:

[Strictly Jake]

Spinning around won

[reece(:]

German Bold Italic and Sometime Samurai WON :love:

[Alf]

Are duets with Jason Donovan going to be included?

I hope you can do that, especially for me.

[Nancy.]

Are duets with Jason Donovan going to be included?

I hope you can do that, especially for me.

Yes! I'll be including the duets too. Even the awful Nick Cave one. :joker:

[Nancy.]

70:
Ok, so we'll kick this off with "Beautiful" - the abhorrent duet with Enrique from the "Kiss Me Once" album - a collection of songs I've never really connected with but this was the worst from the whole album, not to mention the ironic title considering how hideous it is. What's unfathomable was the fact that this was green lit for single number 2.
There's a reason why it only peaked at number 47, so have a listen and see for yourself. ****ing awful.

69:
And here we have another duet - only this time with Nick Cave from the Bad Seeds.
Kylie's voice is beautiful through the track, but Nick completely and utterly obliterates it with his GHASTLY voice. I really don't know what possessed her to work him but she really shouldn't have bothered. It's interesting how this peaked at #11 on the UK chart. :crazy: and even more interesting this type of genre is called a "murder ballad" - because one feels like they're being murdered while listening to it.

68:
I've never really been a fan of Christmas tunes, and this was no exception. Cute video - just a shame she's acting like Joshua Sasse's beard instead of girlfriend. The song itself is quite frankly CRAP to put it mildly. Not my cup of tea at all.

67:
Another single from her Christmas album. I liked the original but points deducted for recording it with Mika (whom she should've left rotting on the musical scrapheap).
HdnmMrzu6-E


66:
Infuriatingly Catchy, but the type of pop ditty a ridiculously uncool Aunt would sing and dance at you on Christmas day as everyone watches with embarrassment. Far to sickly sweet for me, tbh.
EQ3-6_xTJJA

65:
Now we've got her Christmas turds out of the way, Here's Kylie's attempt at Country / Indie - Which flopped HARD on the UK charts, btw... and listening to it again, I can understand why. Having said that I really like the instrumental mid section with the drums.
C8G6OchNroY

64:
Another vomit inducing track - mainly due to James Corden's involvement. Love the original by Yazoo, but this stinks to high heaven. Where's the bucket?
107C8PMY8cM

63:
Kylie goes country again with her most recent album "Golden" but fails miserably as she comes across as a bad Dolly impersonator. This sounds like something Rednex would do. 'l'll certainly be needing "A lifetime to repair" my poor ears. Thanks Kylie :umm2:
lKZIlwGFdPM

62:
and here we are at #62 with "I Was Gonna Cancel". A track which she hired Pharrell to make after taking notes from Hard Candy - but unfortunately, should have indeed cancelled. and what a MESS of a video - Jesus Christ!!! :joker:
6g0c9mv0j9E

61:
I guess you can tell by now that I loathe the Kiss Me Once album. I remember when this was released, she was getting panned everywhere and for good reason. Tragic effort...and what's with the "Eeeyooo oooh ohhh" at the beginning of the song? :joker::joker::joker:
fL6FaI-wJxs

[Eddie.]

Omg I live for your honesty Nancy. :joker:

Though Cowboy Style was snubbed!

I personally am not a huge fan of Kiss Me Once and Golden...

[Nancy.]

Omg I live for your honesty Nancy. :joker:

Though Cowboy Style was snubbed!

I personally am not a huge fan of Kiss Me Once and Golden...

:laugh: I don't care for either of them, Eddie, but I think Golden is slightly better - even though it kinda leaves you wanting to rush to the toilet after a bad curry. :laugh:

[Barry.]

Good choices so far Nancy, but I shall judge if confide in me is low.

[Alf]

"Better the Devil you know" best make the top 5. Easily her best classic from her early stuff.

[Tony Montana]

Top 5 better be

Can't get you out of my head
Love at first sight
I should be so lucky
Chocolate
Spinning around

[Alf]

Top 5 better be

Can't get you out of my head

Chocolate
Spinning aroundYou should be so lucky!

[RileyH]

Into the Blue ROBBED

[RileyH]

In My Arms to win

[Tony Montana]

You should be so lucky!

I should indeed

[Shaun]

Where the Wild Roses Grow is BEAUTIFUL :hmph: and this sets a worrying tone for the rest of the list!

[Ashley.]

Where the Wild Roses Grow & I Was Gonna Cancel are both great. :nono: The latter felt so much like her older music, which I love.

[LukeB]

I low key liked into the blue

[thisisdanny]

Top 5 :love:
In your eyes
On a night like this
Spinning around
Red blooded woman
Love at first sight

Released at a time when Kylie was considered "old news", S.A.W must've worn their fingernails to the quick when scraping the barrel for this dirge. and to think this was the first single from her fourth studio album "Let's Get To It". This piece of excrement broke her string of top 10 hits and peaked at an embarrassing #16 back in 91. Poor Kylie.
iLF3T2ztQvs

59:
I've renamed this 2 Farts for a reason. This was also a poor choice for the lead single from her 10th album, "X". Not only do I find the "Woo's" annoying, I don't like the way she sings on it either - which is why I've rated it so low.
eQGU-vdXoVE

58:
Hmm, now this freshly recorded piece of fluff for Ultimate Kylie was a very bland effort for a greatest hits compilation. Yes, it is toe tapping, but it doesn't really go anywhere. She can do so much better, and why is she dressed like a 10 foot hooker in the video? :umm2:
5lCylDr5X1Y

57:
As much as I love a lot of her S.A.W tracks, this one fails to deliver the magic of previous one's like "Better The Devil You Know" and "I Should Be So Lucky". and leaves a horrible stench long after it's over - similar to a cats litter tray after being emptied.
tiqlquKXHZo

56:
Like a lot of S.A.W tracks, this suffers the same fate for being far to repetitive. Pure throwaway pop at it's finest - still, at least she dances in the video - however sh!tty the dance routines may be.
jWDNMmzvNB4

55:
The album version of this song isn't bad in itself, but the single version is completely dire. They obviously wanted this to match Despacitos success but it failed miserably. and lord knows what the director of the video thinks of her considering she had 3 different men in the space of 34 seconds. Poor Kylie. :joker:
pMv5vuSHMsU

54:
This isn't a bad song either, but the intro of her wailing "The Good, the Bad and The Ugly" ruins it for me. and points deducted for ripping off Madonna's Cherish video too. :laugh:
Q6zw4yQPMLw

53:
She nabbed Stuart Price to make "Aphrodite" after he worked with Madonna on Confessions On A Dancefloor and I can hear glimmers of it on here - but Kylie doesn't seem to quite get there.
RH5K7tE-Gas

52:
Mediocre effort which sounds like something Janet would record. Not bad, but not great either. I think this was the track she used to "crack America" in 2008 but did bugger all. Oh well, back to the drawing board, Kylie :laugh:
wI5_DWMHxgk

51:
Unfortunately this did not make my top 50 purely for the fact, it doesn't feel like a typical Kylie song, imo. It was released in the late 90's after "Incontinent Princess" flopped and she started dressing like a Geisha for some reason. That's not to say I don't like it though. It also reminds me of "Bedtime Story" in a way.

[RileyH]

Omg I haven't heard 2 Hearts in AGES a bop! :love:

[Alf]

Never too late deserves better.

These old ones remind me of watching the chart show on a Saturday morning.

[Nancy.]

50:
This is the one of the very few tracks from "Kiss Me Once" that I liked. Love the production, reminds me of something Rihanna would do, but is it a Kylie classic? Hmm, No but it's damn good, not to mention one of her most sexiest video's ever. Olivia Newton-John would be sooo proud. :laugh:
j3VjJKKVNew

49:
Another good song where Kylie talks and smoulders her way through the song. Very sensual and the video is even better.
pFpDkoo1svo

48:
Incredibly catchy dance track that wouldn't sound out of place on "X". Very cool.
zL2wGYCINwY

47:
Back in the late 70's Giorgio Moroder was a GOD who produced some of the best disco/italo music around, and he proves he hasn't lost his sparkle with this gem. :dance:
6gZ-11-kOSQ

46:
On paper, Kylie's voice wouldn't be suited to this type of music but it works.
Very underrated, and the video is a scream.
FSJCSWWe2UE

45:
I absolutely LOVED this when it came out, but Taio went and replaced her for Travie MCcoy for the USA version and it wasn't as good. The version with Kylie was better.
KRBS5WZMdik

44:
This one sounds like something Robyn would sing. Very cool production, but it wasn't a hit. Shame really as it would've been a hit with a younger vocalist. Ageism sucks.
DfQAhii0TzA

43:
Beautiful, silky, smooth track. Gorgeous!
WjhmB0JlCTo

42:
This is the first single on my list from her debut album and I love it. Very 80's. and Kylie must've been what - 17? Love her hair do. :laugh:
RN-RoBVBefY

41:
Classic Kylie from her extremely successful "Fever" album. Love it.

[montblanc]

Timebomb :lovedup:

[Alf]

"Its no secret" It's a long time since I heard that song, almost 30 years probably. I had Kylie posters on my wall in them days. Every boy was in love with Charlene from Neighbours at that time.

[RileyH]

Did It Again / Higher / In Your Eyes would all probs be in my top 10 lmfao

[Strictly Jake]

Gutted I love In your eyes!!!!!

[Nancy.]

40:
Camp as a row of tents, but I enjoy almost anything with Jake Sheers, so this collaboration is gold IMO.
N62Edu_WIhs

39:
Turn It Into Love" perfectly encapsulates the late 80's S.A.W sound that we've all come to know and love. and although it's a good track, her voice is a little jarring at times otherwise it would've been higher on the list.
lTuz_PCfFOg

38:
One of the better songs from "Golden", but it does have a "Greatest Showman" feel about it. Kylie's voice suits it very well, just a shame it didn't perform better on the charts.
rEWpi6vOnuk

37:
I'm completely in love with this. It has the 70's disco vibe going on and her voice are so pretty. Gorgeous dance tune and of course Dannii adds plenty of sparkle to it. The only downside is that it's a Christmas song.
7SKyU1k7juw

36:
WTF is this obscure track, I hear you say? :joker: Well have a listen and you'll see how good it is. No idea what they're singing about though. :joker:
8mybkLc0-Eo

35:
Great song, but points deducted for doing it with Robbie - whom I'm not a big fan of.
cvn6eYJh-0c

34:
Here's Kylie's recent incarnation as a country gal. Enjoyable (Even though it's about death) - but far to short.
-BDImdAfodA

33:
"Give Me Just A Little More Time" is a cover of Chairmen of the Board's classic, and it was the biggest hit from her flop 4th album "Let's Get To It". Love it
FyOnxPc1VdM

32:
Shocked is one of those songs I sometimes love and then get sick of hearing. Right now i'm back to loving it again, so here it is:
cwYB-DVS27k

31:
The album version of Finer Feelings was awful, but thankfully they realised it had potential and remixed it for the single - which is lovely. and she looks great in the video.
vK6-jr1aUIk

[Nicky91]

about that song duet with Nick Cave

faKRRHtr638

my favourite dutch singer Maan recorded her version of this song with a dutch soul singer Ivan Peroti

:love:

[Alf]

:joker: Brilliant. Did you have posters of Jason too? :joker:No! But I did have ones of Neville Southall.

[Nancy.]

No! But I did have ones of Neville Southall.

lol. I deleted that earlier post because I thought it might've offended you, but great to see you've taken it in good spirit, Alf. :cheer2:

[Alf]

lol. I deleted that earlier post because I thought it might've offended you, but great to see you've taken it in good spirit, Alf. :cheer2:You could never offend me.

[Nancy.]

You could never offend me.

:love:

[Nancy.]

30:
and here we have Breathe at #30 - had it not been for them speeding it up for the single version, it would've been higher. The album version was perfect.
vTRuTYo7et8

29:
Kylie covers another classic hit and what a worthy attempt. It was also from her 1989 debut movie, "The Delinquents".
dTY2eS8uH4Y

28:
Not as instant as most of the S.A.W tracks, but good. Shame she rarely performs it.
Or_rCFLQJcQ

27:
This was quite a big hit in 91 and it's gorgeous. Probably the best song from "Let's Get To It".
OSK71HZOTi4

26:
Please Stay was the 4th single from "Light Years" and it charted at number 10 on the official UK chart. This is the first time Kylie released a Latin influenced song and it's brilliant.
CqZMghG34bY

25:
Sounds like she placed Madonna's Holiday and Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You" into a blender and came up with this. Enjoyable, but again, needs slowing down a little.
wL2HKKrY7sM

24:
One of the best tracks from "X".
Nj6IKIPteuE

23:
This never clicked with me at first but it's so beautiful, and showcases what an great vocalist she is. Gorgeous!
et-RT1INf7c

22:
"Music's Too Sad Without You" was the only one that REALLY stood out for me from "Golden" and showcases how good she is with ballads. Beautiful. I just wish there was more like this on the album.
qsb1SuvUT9Q

21:
This was when she teamed up with the Manic Street Preachers to make this amazing indie track. Unfortunately, the GP didn't take to kindly to this new direction and both the single and album flopped on the UK chart - which is a shame considering "Impossible Princess" is one of her best recordings.

[reece(:]

Justice for the rest of this

[Tony Montana]

Mess Nancy completely forgot about this

[RileyH]

The tragic culling of In My Arms cancelling the whole thing :clap1:
