Yes, i would have expected something more concrete about the album release at this stage, i hope we get some actual confirmation on offical releases soon. If the acouctic/orchestral album does get released i wonder will they release at least 1 re working as an offical single?

They may decide to release one re-working song but not as a full single release, more a promotional thing to help the album if it comes out.

Kylie to perform at a PWL anniversary concert?

 

Steps, Jason Donovan and Rick Astley are among the acts who will be performing at a special concert this summer to celebrate the 25th anniversary of PWL.

 

The concert, which is dubbed The Hit Factory Live, will take place in London’s Hyde Park on July 11. Other acts on the bill include Bananarama, Sinitta, Sonia, Pepsi And Shirlie, Brother Beyond, Dead Or Alive, Princess, Hazell Dean, Sybil, Lonnie Gordon and 2 Unlimited, with more to be announced shortly.

 

2012 is shaping up to be a real celebration of the hit single – in addition to The Hit Factory Live, later this year the Official Singles Chart is set to celebrate its 60th anniversary.

 

After producing hits for a number of other record companies, pop mogul Pete Waterman launched PWL in 1987. The label became home to production team Stock, Aitken and Waterman (Mike Stock, Matt Aitken and Waterman himself) who are arguably one of the most successful song writing partnerships of all time with over 100 Top 40 hits on the Official Singles Chart and more than 250 million single sales between them.

 

"I've been saying no for years to a Hit Factory concert but now, 25 years on, the timing feels right," said Waterman.

 

PWL not only launched the musical careers of all of the above artists, but also that of certain Australian soap star by the name of Kylie Minogue. It has also been speculated that a "very special duet", which was last performed 23 years ago, would also be perfomed at The Hit Factory Live. Could it be Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue's 1989 Number 1 hit Especially For You? We really hope so!

 

Watch an interview with Pete Waterman speaking about Kylie’s meteoric rise to fame below.

YOUR APRIL K25 SURPRISE IS COMING

 

To celebrate the huge success of the Anti Tour we have some very special live footage taken at the first show in Melbourne, Australia.

 

Once again you will need to tweet the correct song from the list of Anti Tour tracks which will appear on the right hand side of the page.

 

Visit www.kylie.com/tweettounlock at 7pm UK time on Wednesday to watch the surprise unlock

 

From her official site.

With the current sales climate, Kylie could possibly get another number 1 album if the competition isn't too tough,i think a number 1 would be a lovely way to celebrate 25 years in the business and what id like even more is a number 1 single as well, fingers crossed as its too long since Kylie hit the top spot in the singles chart.

This is the release schedule for 28th May:

 

2:54 – 2:54

Alt-J - An Awesome Wave

Future Of The Left – The Plot Against Common Sense

Jack Savoretti - Before The Storm

Julia Stone – By The Horns

Kylie Minogue – 25

Ladyhawke – Anxiety

Melody Gardot – The Absence

Paloma Faith – Fall To Grace

Public Image Ltd - This is PiL

Regina Spektor - What We Saw From The Cheap Seats

Rumer – Boys Don't Cry

Russell Watson – Anthems: Music To Inspire A Nation

Scissor Sisters – Magic Hour

Sigur Rós – Valtari

Ultravox - Brilliant

 

Also, fun. and Lloyd are releasing the week before, so I think it will be hard to decide who's going to get number one!

Should hopefully be able to unlock something else tomorrow, although there's nothing on her website (the news section hasn't been updated since 1 June!)
