Was just thinking kylie has many highs and lows throughout her career. What are your 3 highs and 3 lows of her career?

Just very roughly off the top of my head...

HIGHS:
- The 2000 comeback, and allowing for the mammoth success that followed it
- Exploring her artistry in the 90s, culminating in Impossible Princess and we probably wouldn't have the same Kylie we have today without it
- With 'All The Lovers' I truly felt like she'd got something that really reached out beyond her usual core fanbase and it was a proud moment to be a fan

LOWS:
- The 'I Was Gonna Cancel' video
- Resorting to the Christmas album, and stooping so low as to feature James Corden actually SINGING on one of her songs
- The moment I knew Radio 1 were done with playlisting her and knowing she'd find it hard to get hits after that sad.gif

I can only really speak as someone who's been a hardcore fan since 2002, so I didn't live through the early parts of her career to experience them properly.

Highs

The 2000 comeback, it was a huge moment in her career, Spinning Around going to Number 1 was a pivotal moment in her career (despite in my opinion not one of her strongest songs) but Light Years was such an amazing comeback which i refer to as the best album of Kylie's career.

All The Lovers, i agree this song helped Kylie reach out to people outside her fanbase with its euphoric sound and it is the finest single of her career.

Showgirl homecoming Tour, this was an emotional roller-coaster, i was extremely proud of Kylie with how she came back with such energy after the awful period she went through personally.

I could add so many more to this list.

Lows

Her cancer, it was such an awful time for Kylie and as a fan i just felt for her.

Kiss Me Once, a complete disappointment in all aspects, an era i think that is best forgotten.

And i would also have to agree on the moment I knew Radio 1 were done with playlisting her and knowing she'd find it hard to get hits.

Of course, the cancer. sad.gif I found out about that in college on the morning the story broke when one of my classmates told me, knowing how much of a huge fan I am. I thought they were joking, even though it's not really something you joke about.

The media coverage when that story broke was huge.
The news was awful to hear but at the time what also stood out was the amount of love that was out there for Kylie.

Some kind of bliss entering at 22 was so disappointing at the time.Kiss me once was a massive low for me and let's get to it missing the top 10. This would be 3 lows for me.
