^^ Yes, at the time the Kylie website had a download and print alternative cover featuring a ‘real’ Kylie - then Heat magazine have away an alternative sleeve too (Vintage Kylie) - they are quite collectible now.

It did well without her support as it went platinum a good while back.

That 2002 GH was my gateway to discovering her pre-Light Years music! Such a weird choice to put a random model on the front cover though.

One of my most memorable albums ever. Charlene was EVERYWHERE in 1989, wasn't she?!

 

This album solidified her legit entry as an honorary Brit - she was on all the UK talk shows, she had about 9-10 months of Neighbours (in the UK) left.... listening to this album overall takes me back to those amazing days. I'd play this and Jason's "10 good reasons" back to back.... SAW were peaking. Lovely times.

 

As an album, I think it's dated better than the 1st. The first 3 singles, "over dreaming" and the title track are still favourites.

I do prefer enjoy yourself to her debut but I love that aswell, I think both albums have dated well and as I have said before I'm glad to be old enough to have enjoyed the kylie mania back then as it was something else. At the time I was a big fan of Jason's music aswell.

Ah yes, forgot about that! Would have been nice to have had some more new remixes but I guess the album was essentially just a PWL cash-in on Kylie's second wave of chart success.

 

Think Kylie cost them quite a bit with Rhythm of Love and LGTI so the 1992 and 2002 reissue helped them turn a profit. Completely capitalised on her Fever success with the 2002 release, shame the sales weren’t combined, think both are platinum. 2002 also came with a companion DVD too. Have it somewhere!

Does anyone remember the poster you got with it where you could send it off somewhere for a chance to meet kylie? I still have it from my vinyl at the time. Wonder if she'd honour it now? :lol:

Yes i remember this, i sent mine off but never heard anything back although i was reliant on my mother actually sending it for me so i like to believe she did :D

It's almost been one year since 'Kylie' (debut) reissue on vinyl was announced (16th August 2023). I wonder if we're going to get 'Enjoy Yourself' for its 35th anniversary or not?

I really hope it does but not sure it will happen as there aren't even any rumours.

They really should go ahead and release it

I imagine there will be a vinyl release, they must have been pleased with how the debut sold - wasn’t it #3 on the Monday midweeks?

Ya it was 3 in the first update which was a huge surprise.

Really hope we get an EY re-issue - we’ve had multiple CD reissues over the years and the Cherry Red picture disc Boxset but would love to see it get a proper vinyl reissue.

 

I’m sure BMG will wheel it out at some point as they own the rights to Kylie’s PWL albums (as well as the Deconstruction ones).

The album starts really well but I'm finding the ballads to drag the album down a fair bit, much more than they have done in the past. Kylie sings them well, but they're out of place on here. I'd replace them with the two B-sides and add 'Especially for You' in there as well. 'Tears On My Pillow' stays for being a #1.

 

1. Hand On Your Heart

2. Wouldn't Change a Thing

3. Never Too Late

4. Nothing to Lose

5. I'm Over Dreaming (Over You)

6. Especially for You

7. Just Wanna Love You

8. Tears On My Pillow

9. We Know the Meaning of Love

10. Enjoy Yourself

Some other territories got EFY as part of the album, guessing PWL wanted to steer people towards Jason’s album in the UK as it was his debut?

Yeah the North American edition has 'Especially for You' as track 6 between 'Tell-Tale Signs' and 'My Secret Heart'.

I wonder will they eventually try and get the parlophone ones or would they be too costly.

BMG seem to buy whole businesses/back catalogue - that’s how they acquired PWL and Deconstruction, it’s nice that they have so much of her back catalogue.

 

Guessing the Parlophone ones are too valuable to them so in turn too expensive for anyone else to buy.

Id love bmg to eventually get them base don kylies stays with them, at the moment i dont see why she shouldnt as i think if one labels owns all the right etc it gives more options for possible rarities releases etc which is something i have really wanted from Kylie for a long time.

For now thought im just hoping we will get an announcement on Enjoy yourself getting an anniversary release.
