It is incredible that Enjoy Yourself will be reaching its 30th Anniversary next year.
An album by Kylie that is often overlooked by her debut and the career defining Rhythm of Love that followed.

The singles from this album are wonderful and 2 of them became Number 1 Hits for Kylie.
Which of the 4 help you Enjoy Yourself more!
Please vote for the best single and leave some comments.

Never Too Late for me too.
There is something so nostalgic about this when she performs it on tour and it has aged extremely well.
I would have preferred for another song to have broken her run of top 2 hits.

One of my favourite Kylie albums (I managed to get a sealed copy of the US version of this recently on CD), I remember being OBSESSED with the Enjoy Yourself track and always hoped it would be released as a single - such a classic PWL Kylie track.

I have great love for the album in large.
I fully agree about the track Enjoy Yourself,i think it is wonderful and is the ultimate song on the album, singles included.

Easily never too late,always a fan of this and as I have said before the artwork for the pic is one of my faves by Kylie aswell. The artwork would never too late would almost tie in with the golden stuff.

Hand On Your Heart is a well known song from her back catalogue and i still enjoy the song but not as much as Never Too Late.
Wouldn't Change a Thing is also a great song but i sometimes forget about it.
Tears on My Pillow i rarely listen to but on the odd occasion when i do hear it i like it, that said its by far the weakest song from the four.

I've always wondered why they decided not to release wouldn't change a thing here in ireland as even then Kylie had more number 1s here than the uk.

I read somewhere that hand on your heart would have entered at no1 during its first week but sales of cassettes were not included in the charts at that time. Entering at no1 was quite rare in the 80s although it’s more common now but since streaming it seems to have declined again.

It was to do with the cassettes being sold at a cheaper retail price than BPI rules allowed, so 11k was lost, leaving the song 2k behind 'Eternal Flame'.

I believe 'Without You' by Mariah Carey was the first female soloist to debut at #1 in the UK, 5 years later.

I did not know of this, had this not happened it would have entered at number 1 and would most likely have had a 2 week run at the top instead of its existing 1 week.

Likewise, was it ever said why Kylie/PWL decided no to release Wouldn't Change A Thing in Ireland. Ireland and the UK by large get the same music released and when Kylie was doing well on the market it appears strange why they took that decision unless, Hand on Your Heart was huge there and stayed on the charts for a long time and they felt there was no need.

Voted for 'Never Too Late', 'HOYH' used to by my fave from this album, but over time I've favoured towards this more as it's like the album itself some fantastic 80's pop from Kylie's early days. The lyrics are very sad and haunting and really shines in it's Abbey Road version, but it's in it's pop is where it really shines, and to think she didn't want this as a single and wanted the title track as single #3 (which itself is great), but 'NTL' was the perfect follow up to the already incredible first 2 singles.

My ranking of the 'Enjoy Yourself' singles =
"Never Too Late"
"Hand on Your Heart"
"Wouldn't Change A Thing"
'Tears On My Pillow"

Imagine if the title track did get released as either a double a-side alongside 'TOMP' or even as a possible 5th single, which could have easily been another top 5 smash.

I'm a huge fan of the live versions of songs and I don't know what it is hand on your heart live doesn't hit the nail for me,I always find it's missing something.
I agree about the title track it's brill and it's it wasn't a single.

I thought Kylie done a great performance of Hand On You Heart in the medley she performed on the Kiss Me Once Tour.

It is one of better live versions but it still lacks something.

Has Kylie performed Tears on My Pillow on any of the tours?
My instant recognition is no and i don't remember it as part of any medley either.
