7 years ago today, All The Lovers was released ohmy.gif It went top 3 in the UK and to date is her most recent (solo) top 10.

Who could forget that towering orhy and the random elephant balloon in the video?

Still as fresh today? One of her best?

This is definitely one of her best songs of recent times and probably one of the most well-known too.

This is actually my favourite ever Kylie single and is in my all-time top 40. I was completely blown away from the first listen and continue to be to this day, it's massively euphoric and the top three peak was massively deserved. It was such a moment at the Aphrodite tour with the water jets spraying <3

I agree 100% with all of this, especially the part about the tour wub.gif

One of my fondest memories of this song is my fav Geography teacher in school screaming at me that she'd downloaded the song because she would talk to me about my Kylie obsession laugh.gif

Ahhh, this was such a proud moment to be a Kylie fan. I had no idea at the time it would be her "last hurrah" chartwise. sad.gif

I love the way the production is so layered on this, there's a lot to it. And of course the breakdown after the middle 8 (if you can call it a middle 8?)

One of the very best songs that she did. Sheer magic this.

Nothing short of a complete Kylie classic. It remains my ultimate Kylie song. It is also a song that has aged tremendously well.

One of her best hits and looks like her last top 10 hit but at least it's a cracker!

Yes, Higher was another top 10 for her after All The Lovers but it was a feature. All the Lovers was last hit purely under her own name.

I would like to believe she can make the top 10 singles chart at least once more in her career. IF she releases the right lead single, and pulls out all the stops she may just about make it. That said, it is a lot of IF's.

If she doesn't have another top 10, All The Lovers was a nice swan song in that regard.

Still a top 10 for her though, I don't see what difference it being a feature makes. She sings on it, she is in the video, she promoted it, she helped it go top 10.

I am not doubting that, i was referring to her last top 10 hit solely under her own stand alone name.

I remember the music video being quite a talking point at the time! I slept on this song for quite a few years until it suddenly hit me after not hearing it for a while ohmy.gif now comfortably in my top 5 Kylie songs! Has aged really well since 2010.

All the Lovers appears to be universally like by many of her fans.

It's the sort of song that is almost impossible not to like, I know many non Kylie fans who admit to liking it.

Likewise, one or 2 people in my circle would not rate Kylie but would tolerate this song is how they say it.

Ya i can say the same, i remember a few people at work saying oh thats a good song from her as her songs are usually sh*te!

I also remember people saying the same when Better the devil you know was released.
