June 14, 20196 yr This thread prompted me to stream BL tonight - they really did chose the best songs as singles, not sure there are any missed opportunities on this like some other Kylie albums. SECRET SECRET SECRET SECRET
June 14, 20196 yr SECRET SECRET SECRET SECRET It’s decent but not a screaming omission as a single like some of her other album tracks (for me at least), I doubt it would have performed better than the songs that became single.
June 14, 20196 yr RBW was a meh moment for me at the time. The issue with Red Blooded Woman was that it literally sounded like a lot of the R&B songs on the radio at the time, same thing as Holler by the Spice Girls a few years earlier. In retrospect, both songs have actually aged well but at the time it just didn't stand out and just ended up sounding like a desperate bid to get on US radio.

In retrospect, both songs have actually aged well but at the time it just didn't stand out and just ended up sounding like a desperate bid to get on US radio. That's pretty much how I feel about it aswell and with holler by the spice girls. Body language overall I had the same feeling and it's a fairly boring album apart from about 3 or 4 songs.
August 1, 20204 yr It's in the lower ranking of Kylie singles. It was a single with a view of appealing to the American market.
August 2, 20204 yr Not a big fan of RBW. It’s too urban sounding. I don’t like her voice on the song.

August 2, 20204 yr I wanted this to be #1 instead of Toxic at the time, there was a chart battle hyped up between Kylie and Britney at the time. I thought Red Blooded Woman was a better song. I really liked it at the time. Edited August 2, 20204 yr by Hissjack
August 2, 20204 yr Red blooded woman didn't even come close but I didn't really like toxic either even though its hugely popular.
August 2, 20204 yr Red blooded woman didn't even come close but I didn't really like toxic either even though its hugely popular. Yes I was surprised at the time that it didn't come close even though a lot of people in the media were hyping up the chart battle at the time.
August 2, 20204 yr Ya I remember the hype but I always kinda knew RBW wouldnt be a number 1 but I was happy it was a top 5.
August 3, 20204 yr I believe Red Blooded Woman was Top 3 in the early midweek predictions. I recall it being solidly #5 all week.
August 3, 20204 yr I don't need much of an excuse to revisit this — massively underrated. The video? A moment.
