11 years on from the release of X, the album that divides people.
The division is the result of most people feeling the album is not consistent but where the songs are good they are brilliant.
Which from the 4 tracks was the best single for you?

Wow and The One are both, (excuse the pun) WOW.
With that said, as addressed in a different poll I don't feel The One was ever really a proper full single.
I relate to Wow as a single and The One as a missed opportunity and due to this I voted Wow.

2 Hearts and Wow are among my least liked Kylie singles ever and The One and In My Arms are in my Top 5 of Kylie tracks of all time laugh.gif Went with the epic ‘The One’ - hands down the biggest missed opportunity of a mega smash.

The One had the potential to be a huge hit and would be what i would have selected for the lead single with Like A Drug, Wow and In My Arms the other singles.
2 Hearts, by large, is forgettable, certainly not a stand out single from Kylie and certainly wasn't the correct choice to lead this campaign.

The Calvin Harris production alone makes ‘In My Arms’ a winner for me.

I found this a very weak era tbh. 2 Hearts was a poor comeback and Wow was just annoying that was before its heavy use on he adverts. The One was just dull! I can’t even remember how it goes. Not a great era!

That is an interesting take on the songs and era.
It is one of the first times i have seen anything negative appear about The One?

The one but I'm a big fan of wow aswell. I like in my arms a lot more than I used to and 2 hearts would have made a brill album track but should never have been a single.

'In My Arms', remains my second favourite Kylie song overall.

It's one of the closest polls so far.It's no surprise that 2 hearts isn't doing well here.

I'd love to switch out 2 hearts for like a drug and then it would be 4 great singles.

Went with Wow. Incredibly fun song. In My Arms would be a close second.

2 Hearts has always been her weakest single to me, and The One I find a tad overrated, but not bad by any means.

That's what I think, these are the 4 singles from X. Probably in a different order, but not sure what. 'The One' as lead though.

Lead would be the one,followed by like a drug, wow and on my arms I think would have worked great.

I would have likely selected the same.
The One would certainly have been the ideal lead single.

The one was the best single by far. I actually think two hearts was my second favourite, followed by wow and in my arms. The one should have been the lead single and it didn’t need to be remixed and should have stuck to the original album version. Like a drug would also have made a good single. I don’t understand why so many fans think speakerphone would have been a great single. It’s extremely dull and would have flopped in my view.

Speakerphone would not be a song i see that ever had big single potential.

I'd say no too but sometimes those type of songs can be huge chart hits.

The Freemasons remix of The One was hugely popular and it was good but the original was much stronger.
