I would say "how has it been 30 years?", but I was 2 when this album was released.
 I'm going to a night local to me dedicated to the anniversary of this album on Saturday! There's even gonna be a Kylie tribute act performing and everything.

30 years and it remains one of Kylie's highlight albums.
I have great love for this album as it houses so many wonderful songs outside those selected for singles. Light Years is my overall Number 1 Kylie album but Enjoy Yourself does also have its time at Number 1 in my Kylie collection. |

I gave it a re-listen this afternoon after a while, I feel like the ballads on it are just too cheesy and syrupy, those are what drag it down for me. I like all the upbeat songs! Forgot how much I really do like the title track, and 'I'm Over Dreaming' is such a gem.
It's not to say that I dislike Kylie's ballads, she has some wonderful examples across her discography. I just find these ones a bit too much to stomach. 'Tell Tale Signs' could essentially be a Disney song.

PWL appeared to have a ballad allocation on the albums, that said, Kylie houses a ballad or 2 on all her albums.
Enjoy Yourself and I'm Over Dreaming' are such gems, this songs are up with the best of Kylie songs. Nothing to Lose also have that uplifting sound but not to the same heights as some of the others. These 2 songs showcase Enjoy Yourself was an album loaded with potential future singles. Enjoy Yourself often gets overlooked among fans despite its huge success. |

I love enjoy yourself and it never rates high when it comes to ranking kylie albums. So hard to believe its 30 years old, I so remember buying this when released and finding the cassette all confusing as the track listing wasnt the same as what was on the actual cassette, I also bought the vinyl.

With some random album tracks making their way onto SBIT, Im Over Dreaming Over You is one i certainly would have liked to have made the list.

'It's No Secret' was a single in some territories though, so I can see why it was. Although I do agree that 'I'm Over Dreaming' is a waaaay better song. |

Im Over Dreaming Over You or Turn It Into Love would have been the preferred selection ahead of Its No Secret if i was making the choice.

Its easy to forget that songs do get releases elsewhere.
I am going to have a look at songs that may not have got released elsewhere but not the UK. All I See comes to mind. |

As touched on before, the Irish fans have not got any promotion from Kylie is many years apart from Kylie doing some tours there.
It is a market she could promote more in with it so near the UK and both Step Back in Time and Golden charted highly there. |

Will the tribute act perform the album in full or just the singles and other singles from different albums by Kylie.

She was absolutely terrible, neither looked nor sounded like Kylie. I heard her do 'Better the Devil...' and 'What Do I Have to Do' before retreating to the bar. |
