October 15Oct 15 Not surprised at 'Kids' being out early but I did give that a 9 and is the highest pointed song for me out so far. In the enjoy it a lot camp oop.'Better Than Today' and 'New York City' I liked a lot and scored fairly high up too from the other dropouts.
October 15Oct 15 I'm not terribly surprised by any results so far, although 'The Other Boys' is an absolute banger!'Better Than Today' is a song I enjoy but in no way should it have been a single, it'd have made a nice album track (I suppose much like '2 Hearts' and 'I Was Gonna Cancel' in that way, although I think I prefer it as a song to both of those)
October 15Oct 15 I haven't lost anything of big value to me so far!I actually like 'Kids' more than many I think, I think it's a deserved "casual fan" favourite!
October 15Oct 15 Author Rating 66-70#66 Word Is Out - Score: 76.5#67 Higher - Score: 76#68 These Alarms - Score: 75.5#69 A Lifetime To Repair - Score: 75#70 Crystalize - Score: 74.5After 13 consecutive Top 10 hits, ‘Word Is Out’ became Kylie’s first single to miss the Top 10 peaking at #16.‘Higher’ became a Top 10 hit in 2011 and she didn’t trouble the Top 10 again for another 12 years.
October 15Oct 15 These alarms done well but I would think the next time a rate comes around it will drop.Crystalize deserves a bit higher but has done well.

October 16Oct 16 I have a fair bit of love for 'Word Is Out', I'd probably have it just about within my top 40.
October 16Oct 16 Author Scores 61-65#61 100 Degrees - Score: 79.5#62 Sincerely Yours - Score: 78.5#63 Cowboy Style - Score: 78#64 What Kind Of Fool (Heard It All Before) - Score: 77.5#65 it’s No Secret - Score: 77‘Cowboy Style’ was an Australian only release and despite Impossible Princess being hugely popular there versus the rest of the world it just managed to beak into the Top 40 at #39.‘It’s No Secret’ was initially planned to be a global release but was pulled in favour of ‘Hand On Your Heart’ - the Australian vinyl versions have gone onto be some of the most expensive Kylie items. It did however give Kylie another Billboard hit peaking at #37.Coming at the end of her PWL tenure ‘What Kind Of Fool’ followed in the footsteps of ‘Finer Feelings’ missing the Top 10 and peaking at #14.
October 16Oct 16 'Sincerely Yours' is stunning, one of my ultimate Golden highlights but I never think of it as being a single.In fact it feels weird to me that it is but 'Dance Floor Darling' isn't.
October 16Oct 16 What Kind of Fool im really enjoying all over again, pitty it didnt go top 10 but at the time it was seen as a real step backwards for her after the rhythm of love and lets get to it singles, id say if what kind of fool came before these it would have went top 10 as her popularity was also higher.
October 17Oct 17 WKOF was PWL and Kylie going back to the poppier feel of the first 2 albums but it didn’t pay off at the time and as you say felt more of a backwards step.At least it was another co write for Kylie plus the video is smokin’. Edited October 17Oct 17 by aeroco

October 17Oct 17 For me, "Finer Feelings" fro the Abbey Road Session will always have a special place in my heart.

October 17Oct 17 Giving you up and somekind of bliss are the 2 big loses in that result but havnt fared terribly either.Wasnt sure how Xmas would get rated but it will be more interesting to see how it gets rated in say 5 years time.
