Often an overlooked part of Kylie’s history - the film was a box office success in both the UK and Australia. The multi artist soundtrack featured Kylie’s ‘Tears On My Pillow’ which became her 4th UK #1 single and spent a month in the Top 3. A few years ago the film was re-issued and made available on iTunes and streaming services. Anyone still watch it?! Anyone yet to see it?!

BuzzJack Legend Joined: 25 March 2007 Posts: 21,303 User: 3,155	I’d love the soundtrack album to be on streaming - I know Kylie only contributed 1 track but would be good for it to be on there as part of Kylie history, I’m guessing it’s due to licensing issues. I can’t believe for how big Kylie was at the time and the success of the film that the album didn’t make the compilation charts from what I can see and also has never been certified - the iconic Kylie album cover should have helped it shift a few copies seeing as it was peak Kylie mania time.

Yes, always random that PWL didn’t push for more songs especially as they released the compilation and Kylie was on the front cover.

Yes I bought the tape at the time and now have the UK vinyl and CD too, I also have other slight variations in my collection (Greek Cassette, Dutch CD etc.,) - it didn’t get a huge push internationally so there are not lots of copies to collect.
