In contrast Celebration, her final PWL single,resulted in her lowest charting single with PWL. Both songs are not among her most popular. But from the 2 singles, which song do you like more?

Kylie never performs Tears on my Pillow, she seems to want to leave it in the past but Celebration has got multiple performances over years. When performed live, Celebration does get the crowd going and Kylie delivers it very well in a live setting. This post has been edited by pippa: 30th September 2019, 04:25 PM

"Celebration" is ok if not a little bland and by the numbers cover, coming at the very end of her PWL days and the #20 peak is not exactly a fitting farewell.

They should have went all out for that final singles. The studio version doesn't really go anywhere and is flat but Kylie really does bring it to life live. Based on studio version, Tears my my Pillow is much superior.

What Kind of Fool was a very solid pop single and it was met with limited success, a song i think deserved greater success. It is welcoming to see Tears on My Pillow do well in this vote as Tears on my Pillow doing well is a rarity.
