19 // Better Than Today

Average: 7.2 | Highest score: 10

Another criminally underrated song, what happened here chaps?! Nobody can ever forget her X Factor performance when she nearly stumbled to her death with those killer heels, as Dannii watched on from the judging panel. The video is definitely up there with most of her others as being one of her best, and the whole song is just insanely catchy! However, it only got ONE 10 (wtf?!), and got a mixed bag of other scores, the lowest being 4 (whoever that was, judging you!).

That X-factor persormance was LIFE, I love when Dermot knelt to kiss her hand, he knows she is QUEEN.

Yeah, I enjoyed her X Factor performance of 'Better Than Today' too (quite a bit better than her one on the 2012 final if I'm honest). I wasn't too keen on it being released as a single over 'Cupid Boy' but my opinion of the track definitely benefited from the single release.

Srsly, what is going on here? Were you all high when you submitted your rates? Not managing the top 15 is the stunning Flower, originally performed on the X2008 tour, a beautiful ballad, and then released as the lead single from The Abbey Road Sessions. Didn't manage to pick up an 11 (how?), but did however pick up a few 10's, and along the way quite a mixed bag, but also getting a couple of low scores, the lowest of low being a big fat STUPID ZERO.

Get outta town :o :(

'Flower' would have been a 10 or an 11 for me if someone hadn't put a limit on them... -_- But seriously, it's shocking that this only makes #18 when it's one of Kylie most touching songs,

I officially declare the raters SHIT. :drama: This got quite a mixed reception in all of the rates, but it did however pick up a few 9's, 9.5's and 10's, but did manage to stoop to 1's as well as other low scores. Definitely among the strongest from X, but obviously not for everyone else. You not got it... :no:

Another great song but another which isn't too surprising to see so low - most people dislike this and pass it off as a desperate attempt to recreate 'Love at First Sight'.

Faith officially restored in all the raters! Y'all have stopped one of her worst (right next to 2 Hearts) from reaching the top 15! REJOICE. The video is done very well, but the song itself is just so boring, and it was probably the only bad moment on the Showgirl tour (as well as the Body Language launch tour). FRAGILE SEAAAAAMS...

No.

I reckon Regina is about to go and kill some kittens here, but just scraping into the top 15 is the AMAZING Timebomb, as part of Kylie's K25 celebrations! The video is rather amazing, but the SONG. A diamond from her discography! *hides as Regina now commits mass genocide on all raters (spare me pl0x)*

UGH! The worst thing is, I know there's some less deserving songs yet to come, like 'Slow'.

Better Than Today <3

 

Timebomb however is sub-par at best.

Poor Better Than Today, FUTURE CLASSIK!!!111!!!!11!!!!!1

14 // Your Disco Needs You

Y'all have gone back to your absolutely, horrendously SHIT ways of rating! :drama: The absolutely AMAZING Your Disco Needs You only manages to reach #14, despite having received three 11's, and a few 10's. It did however get a few low scores including more than one 0. I shall now go back (to torment and punish those who scored it lowly) to talking about the Showgirl tour, and how stunning the performance of this was then. She really needs to make that a regular performed song on tours (although she did on X2008 too, so no real worry yet).

WHAT THE FRAK Buzzjack. This is going to cause me to have a mental breakdown/heart attack/brain explosion.

Pleased to see What Do I Have To Do doing so well in the other rate :D As for this one, I was just writing about Giving You Up on my blog yesterday. It's an alright song in an album filler sort of way but the video was creepy and the b-side Made Of Glass was SO much better, and would have been such a worthy inclusion on Ultimate Kylie, with Giving You Up as the b-side. I love Wow, but it was pretty Kylie by numbers I guess, considering a lot of X was quite different sounding, so I can see why people weren't enamoured with it.

Can't disagree with the rate thus far, bar Kids being so low. Would imagine it'd grab decent scores being such a Pop landmark.

 

2 Hearts is a nice song and all but it was the absolute worst choice for a lead single. Especially for 'X' as it didn't represent the overall sound of that record in any way. Much would've preferred her to release "Lose Control" instead. "Like a Drug" and "Speakerphone" was complete misses as they sounded like such good singles.

 

My 'X' you ask?

 

1. Speakerphone [1st Single]

2. Like A Drug [2nd Single]

3. Magnetic Electric

7. Sensitized

8. Nu-di-ty

9. Heart Beat Rock

10. In My Arms [3rd Single]
