She is giggling when she thinks about it. “There were a whole lot of lyrics that didn’t make the song. As you can only imagine… heh.”You mean we could have had Kylie’s full, unedited thoughts on the merits of photocopying one’s body parts after a few too many Babychams?“All the photocopying, ha!” she laughs. “After we recorded it and sent it over I kept thinking there’s definitely going to be something in the inbox from the label saying, ‘Yeah, we liked the song but… is that a joke? Can we lose the ending?’ But no one said anything!” (You’ll have to play it to find out what made it through.)I tell her that Hot in December had me up and dancing around the kitchen the second time I played it — it’s quite sexy. “Oh great! Yeah, it’s a pop song disguised as a Christmas song. I mean it’s uber pop.” As for This Time of Year, it’s a loving song but with a sad tune that you could instantly imagine on the soundtrack of a rom-com. Three quarters of the way through, when you know those two lovers should be together and yet all hope appears lost. “I was just trying to find the balance of being emotional but not a wreck. Hopeful and loving. So if it made it into a rom-com, wow, I… I don’t know what I’d do, I’d be so excited. But you’ve hit the nail on the head, that’s where it feels like it should go.” Edited Thursday at 17:071 day by SmileyKylie

The whole release was actually really weird when you think about it.If there was ever going to be an official Kylie and Danni single 100 Degrees was the moment for it.With a performance on Strictly by both alongside physicals it would have entered the charts.
