Before I reveal #3, this is the original 'The One':

 

 

I could imagine Kylie singing those verses tbh. They could do with that Kylie charm.

03. All the Lovers // 9.3 (6: Monzo, Josh!; 6.5: Nick F1 // 11: gooddelta, pippa; 10: SamJudd, Feel the Fever, Red Blooded Man, blacksquare, Regina, Liam, davidas, Stuart25, Nick Jonas, Jay, liamk97, Jade, Theo)

 

Taking the bronze position is the last of Kylie's big solo smashes, 'All the Lovers'. Despite being one of the final songs to be written for Aphrodite, 'All the Lovers' was chosen as the lead single after Kylie considered it to "sum up the euphoria of the album perfectly". In fact, it epitomises the very essence of what Kylie is about. Marrying the classic Kylie sounds of disco and electropop, the song releases bursts of love and bliss throughout its 3-and-a-half-minute time length whilst Kylie sensually delivers an anthem of absolute adoration. It's a celebration of love and how it can unify and free of us of all inhibitions if we allow it. It's a huge, defining moment of Kylie's discography, rightfully standing shoulder-to-shoulder with her other big hits.

Love at first sight is soooooooooooo overrated so Better the devil you know for the win
Only one word to describe 'ATL' and that is....'EPIC', now this was the comeback that we all wanted/needed and gave Kylie something not even Madonna managed in this decade, a HIT, this definitely ranks way up there with her very best, as well as the music video which was also awesome and shame none of the other singles from 'Aphrodite' had a great music video like this.


My 'Aphrodite' run = "All The Lovers" > "Get Outta My Way" > "Aphrodite" > "Cupid Boy"


As for the final 2, 'BTDYK' & 'LAFS', both pretty amazing and maybe predict the former for the win, but gotta a feeling that we may have a TIE.
I was the one who low-rated "The One" and "All The Lovers", hope it won't be the same with top 2.

Low rating 2 of my fave kylie songs :cry: although all the lovers is way ahead of the one for me

 

There is always varied voting in polls of this nature which is to be expected.

Its the nature of music that people have different preferences.

With this poll i am happy that the songs remaining are wonderful songs that i immensely enjoy.

 

'All the Lovers' isn't quite top 3 for me, but it's a special track and a very key moment in her career.

 

I'd probably say LAFS to win, but I don't really mind. Both are top 5 for me.

I am happy for any song to win but All The Lovers is what i would like to see the outright winner.

Such a wonderful wonderful song and sadly Kylies last big hit.

That said, it was a great song to go out on as her last big hit.

 

3rd for All The Lovers is great result (even if i wanted it to top the poll).

There was no other song on Aphrodite that would have had the same success as All The Lovers and i don't think any of the other songs would have got the interest in the album that was achieved for its first week sales and going to Number 1.

Nothing on aphrodite comes close to all the lovers and it was a better of a lead single and one of her very best lead singles.Kylie herself seems to still really like the song too.

All The Lovers for me has cemented itself as both her best lead single and best overall single.

I love the euphoric feel of the song and the way it builds as the song progresses.

All The Lovers heightened my excitement for the Aphrodite album.

All the Lovers is the clear stand out on the album but nonetheless it is an album that works in its entirety.

Aphrodite was the first era I was old enough to properly follow from start to finish and it really defines my Summer 2010. I have so many fond memories: hearing that 30 second clip of the 'All the Lovers' breakdown which sounded like the most euphoric, epic piece of music I'd ever heard, seeing the music video on TV, watching Kylie be interviewed and perform on the Jonathan Ross Show, receiving the album and listening to it non-stop. Big moments that I'll always treasure and I'm happy that I actually got to witness Kylie's last big hit (it's not all about the charts, but there's something particularly nice about following an era that's commercially successful).

 

'All the Lovers' remains one of my favourite Kylie singles and watching her perform it on the Golden Tour was such a joy. It really is a song that connects us with Kylie.

Chart wise I loved the big eras, I'm a fan since the start so i remember the highs and lows but it all changes,dancing going top 40 was a high but years ago that would because huge low. I remember the excitement of spinning around release week and finding out kylie was number 1 in the mids,it was so exciting. All the lovers selling so well was great too as it really deserved its succes, really wish it had went number 1 though.

Yeah, the perspective of success does change and the Golden era was definitely a success in terms of what's feasible for Kylie in this day and age. It too was a fun and rewarding era to follow and one that defined much of my 2018.

 

I remember seeing the music videos of the Light Years and Fever eras on the TV but it would have been fantastic to actually be conscious of how hugely popular she was.

Golden had a great chart run and I loved following her weekly positions. Light years she was big as there was so much coverage especially the gold hotpants but fever was on another level. I loved the week kylie held Michael Jackson's comeback single off number 1 and spending a 4th at number 1 with cant get you out of my head,fever also had a great chart run and also finally earned kylie her first Brit awards and the brit performance of cant get blue Monday out of my head was epic and remains my fave kylie performance to this day.

I imagine following the chart success of Fever must have been such a joy! Seeing it return to the Top 10 on two occasions thanks to 'In Your Eyes'/BRITs and 'Love at First Sight'/tour - something none of her other albums have done. Body Language by comparison must have seemed like quite the underperformance. The record company clearly thought the album would be able to hold up throughout the Christmas period yet it just slipped away and didn't really get chance to come back from it. X, on the other hand, seemed to hold up well, even despite that 5-19 drop in its third week as sales were still huge.
