I think it could also have been partly waiting so long to release the second single (Step Back in Time) which wasn't exactly massive. I i actually only recently realised that it was released after SBIT, I assumed it was released off the back of 'Better The Devil'. Do you think the album might have performed better if it was? I mean, that single was pretty huge and she still seemed to have a tiny bit of goodwill towards her at that point.

For me when devil was released my memories were people who wouldn't have previously liked Kylie were really liking the song so my thinking at the time was Kylie was getting more popular, as an adult i know that opinion was based on a very small amount of people but my teenage brain processed it so differently to what it was. I also remember when step back in time was released people were saying Kylie Minogue says "fcuk" in her new single they were of course referring to the " i wana funk" part of the song but again people were talking about Kylie.

 

 

Happy 32nd (!!) to the release of ‘Shocked’

 

UK Charts: 10-6-9-18-23-38-55.

 

13th Top 10 hit and blocked Dannii’s single ‘Success’ from climbing to #10

 

It was a unique chart moment having kylie and dannii at 10 and 11 it would have been nice if both were top 10 but shocked was easily more deserving.

Three weeks at 11 for $ucce$$ was frustrating! Still it outsold JTTB which peaked at number 8

 

Bruce Forest (produced of UK version) recently posted to Dannii that he loves their version of SYTWTG , he considers it one of his faves!

I never liked success and still don't but 3 weeks number 3 is frustrating chartwise.SHocked on the other hand I still like, it's ny least fave ROL single but it's still good.
