December 13, 20168 yr Getta Outta My Way is not a perfect pop song. It is basically a bad-rehash of Love at First Sight. Based on the merit of the song it did not under-perform,what it did manage was to kill album sales off as it done nothing for the album. All The Lovers was the perfect lead single and it rightly ranks among Kylie;s biggest selling singles. It is also likely the last big hit from her. I agree about the pink pound, and i would believe music is probably the only thing Kylie does not make much money on. Merchandise, tours, tv appearances etc is her income now. I fully agree she needs to concentrate on her music, especially for her next album. I find it frustrating she has spent so much time recording songs as one off's or collaborating on extremely weak collaborations that are doing nothing for her career except wasting time and money. Christmas album ticked a box but the output in addition to the Kiss Me Once output in general is way below Kylie standards. Edited December 13, 20168 yr by pippa
December 14, 20168 yr At Christmas needed that X-factor performance.... they listened to silly media about Everybodys free being Xmas number 1 ..... idiots At Christmas was primed... on verge of ITunes top 100, radio play, at least some streaming... already getting used to it as was on J Ross the day before.....has Xmas in the title..... Warner, Parlophone and Kylie the only ones to blame for poor album sales I still hope for a remixes EP of At Christmas on Friday... or even a crappy video.... but I am continually disappointed.
December 14, 20168 yr Once again, they are not handling or managing things correctly and sadly its all becoming a repetitive mistake with Kylie and team. They do not appear to be even trying to secure success anymore.
December 14, 20168 yr Well At Chritsmas is now on one of the main Spotify Xmas playlists so will get streaming over the coming days... dropping down iTunes though as the album does the same.... what can we expect on Friday? Will she do anything for Xmas week or is she off spending our cash on a holiday? I am still hoping a video or EP..... I am eternally optimistic.

Yeah it's now added to the "Christmas Is Coming" & "Christmas Party" playlists - nice to see It was already on the Topsify "100 Greatest Christmas Songs Ever" Pity they wouldn't replace 'Christmas Wrapping (with Iggy Pop)' with 'At Christmas' on the "Christmas Pop" playlist - as that's the Xmas playlist with the biggest number of followers
December 15, 20168 yr I know... Christmas Wrapping is getting very good streaming lol... its actually one of my favourites too and she performs it really well.....
December 15, 20168 yr If there is no more promotion the album will likely leave the chart next week :(
December 15, 20168 yr Well the J Ross show is repeated tonight on ITV but she wont sing until around 11.40pm but should get a few 'At Christmas' sales ..... lets see if she does anything tomorrow.... she has the Questions and Answers to do also which she advertised on twitter and mentioned yesterday so she may have some promo.... I also expect some pricing strategies next week .. maybe a day of £4.99 or £5.99 ITunes etc.... Still hoping for a video/EP :))))))
December 15, 20168 yr 'Everyday's Like Christmas' should also be given a push, as it's definitely one of the best A-Mas songs of all time.
December 15, 20168 yr She doesn't push any songs these days.... that's the problem....... she releases and lets them flop
December 16, 20168 yr I agree she does let them flop, the way her campaigns are handled are baffling. The Christmas album was handled well last year apart from not pushing one song as a single, they missed a trick by not really pushing only you which had potential to be a hit. Kiss Me Once was handled badly but it was a weak album to make it worse. Kylie would be better taking a step back and putting out decent material and promoting the hell out of it instead of doing bits of this and bits of that that are not benefiting her career in any great deal.
December 16, 20168 yr well no EP , no video....... Kylie Xmas reduced just £2 to £8.99 will hardly make a difference..... At Christmas - a complete mess again..... even Radio 2 must soon start be lose faith in her......
December 16, 20168 yr Why 'At Christmas' isn't reduced to 59p on iTunes from today is beyond me! It needs that to get it noticed and hopefully move up the iTunes chart - in turn drawing attention to the Album
December 16, 20168 yr Yep I don't understand her record company either At Christmas could easily get a top 75 hit for her and be added to playlists for next year etc but they just don't care..... more bothered about selling baubles at £10 each
December 16, 20168 yr The problem lies with the decisions been made by the team, everything is becoming more and more like less than a half baked attempt. The new Christmas album version is an utter mess and its almost like they are pulling out all the stops to prevent At Christmas getting a chart placing.
December 16, 20168 yr I really love her version of 'Christmas Wrapping'. It has that cheekiness I sometimes like from her.
December 16, 20168 yr It's my second favourite from the album, '100 Degrees' in first place. Like you say, it's cheeky and there's so much character in the lyrics. I know that's how it was when The Waitresses originally sang it, but there's just something extra great about the way Kylie does it.
