It's definitely my pick as well, it feels very Q4 and it would be perfect for a Strictly slot and for the radio during the months going into Christmas. It's got that autumn feel and the interpolation uses that nostalgia via Motown we all go so used to during the last months of the year. Her best bet at a radio/chart hit!

My playlist goes: Midnight Cowboy [as you guys said, this feels like the natural opener - the album and the visuals kinda give me theatre vibes, with distinct acts etc so it feels a natural opener for me] Headache [sonically similar to MC, i think they sound great near each other] Unconditional [bratty vibes of the first to tracks + disco tinges of what follows] Before You Break My Heart Fantasy Plastic Box Self Saboteur Lip Service Glitch FUFN Natural at Disaster Silent Disco [perfect "happy ending" song] IT girl [perfect "end song" - I feel like we get the pay off of the album title by going on the entire journey for her to realise "oh well that's showbiz baby" at the end of the "story"] Angel of My Dreams [obvious curtain call song, of course!] This works for me, and I can see the story of the album better with this run x

Urban Outfitters are releasing a 2000s vinyl drop: Vanessa Hudgens - Sneakernight 7” Hilary Duff - Reach Out 7” Blink 182 - Enema of the State LP Michelle Branch - The Spirit Room LP Iyaz - Replay 7” Fall Out Boy - Sugar We’re Going Down 7” Charlie’s Angels’ OST LP Imogen Heap - Speak For Yourself LP Feist - The Reminder LP Gorillaz - Demon Days LP Jack’s Mannequin - Everything In Transit LP I know I'm alone in this but I ordered the Charlie's Angels OST so quickly! Super nostalgic for me and my favourite soundtrack ever, so glad to finally have it on vinyl!

OMG I am beyond chuffed to have this new version! "Singapore" is one of my favourite tracks of them and I've always been sad that it's been lost to a bonus disc on The Sound Of... It's part of my favourite Xenomania "trilogy" of songs ("Singapore", "Memory of You", and "I Left My Heart in Tokyo" - thematically they seem to fit together to me), and I'm just thrilled that it's having its own moment to shine after all these years!

Some bangers here, good luck guys. May return on 175 ;)

She can learn! 🤣 Shame though, this basically kills any notion they would ever do this or My Love Is Pink or Never Gonna Dance Again ever again :( (my favourite album tracks) ((Good to be Gone would be there as well but I think that's only nostalgia playing on my mind really))

They should release a single version of this with Siobhan in time for RSD !

100% this. Last year really soured things for me, from this particular problem to the whole drama with the Netherlands being DQd. I felt the politics had majorly eclipsed the show and the usual great atmosphere around the contest, and as a result I am nowhere near as invested this year. Liverpool was such a high, it's such a shame things have gone downhill since.

Shame this happened, she seemed very sure of how she wanted the rollout to go. Tinfoil hat on, I wonder if the label tried to shelve most of it asking for more "hits" so she's leaked it herself. She wouldn't have been the first artist to do so. Also, labels need to be less scared of leaks, if anything it proves there's interest in the album. They should hurry and rush release it on streaming services (at least) after the BRITs.

Some people have had their orders cancelled and refunded, others have had their orders refunded but not cancelled yet. My order is still live and they have my money. I think perhaps anything outside of the UK they had to cancel as it'll be very difficult for this item to clear customs? They've commented on social media saying the project is definitely not cancelled.

So excited to hear this! France is only of my Top 3 franchises (along with Espana and Philippines), the cast here is going to be so stacked! Assuming they won't get Lolita Banana, La Kahenna, La Grande Dame or Soa de Muse (although I'd love for her to come back and be judged properly!), this is the cast I'd want to see: - Kam Hugh - Elips - La Big Bertha - Mami Watta - Sara Forever - Piche - Cookie Kunty - Leona Winter - Perseo - Norma Bell Sooo many others I'd like back, Moon, Punani, Vespi, Magnetica, Ruby on the Nail, Lula Strega, Misty Pheonix! And I beg them to give a second chance to La Kahenna and Soa de Muse if they accept the invitation. This is going to be so good!

Also got my tickets for Lisbon! So glad I can see her back home on what is her only second time performing there. Better yet, a mere 4 days after my bday and a month and a half after my wedding also in Lisbon. Couldn't be better! ❤️

Glad 'Hello' is having is moment. It was one of my favourite demos for Tension. Still hoping they finally put the Super Deluxe version on Spotify and "Heavenly Body" and "Drum" get released too!

Apparently limited to 3000 copies. But £71 for a vinyl, even if a 3LP, is a no go for my wallet...

So obvious Madison Love was just the session singer that they propped up to featured artists because Lana rejected the song. Couldn't they just offer it to another singer or had Madison sing in her own register? Guetta is getting so lazy these days

Hey guys, does anyone know what's the address to send Kylie fanmail? I can't seem to find anything online but I'm sure there must be one?

If anything this year just proved to all the contest is, indeed, political. There's no way around that now and the EBU is showing their asses. Major rehaul is needed for next year. I wonder what the agreement was to get the 5 or so countries that were threatening to withdraw on Friday back in the game.

Actually 'Piano' from the Tension sessions is probably my least favourite thing I've ever heard her voice on (knowing full well it's only a demo), so I'm very glad they left that off the album.

There was a little bit of everything - if you've seen most of her recent interviews you'll know all she talked about (her recording her own vocals, Padam going viral, etc) but it's still joyous and she was the main guest of the night. Also great interaction with the other guests she came across wonderfully. I'm unsure of the hair and makeup choices, they've gone for a more relaxed look, but perhaps it'll come across better on the broadcast? She walked in to Padam and she challenged Mawaan to do the choreo. Later on Graham brought up Tension and they played a bit of the music video!

Anyway - she's was great at the Graham Norton show tonight. Watch out for her little dance to Mawaan Rizwan's I Got A New Walk - very funny!

On my way to the BBC television centre for Graham Norton tonight So excited to see Kylie in person!!

I had such a great experience yesterday. I got there at 6.30am so the queue wasn't massive yet. I got in the shop at around 10.40am and I was immediately overwhelmed. It didn't help that I had to be at my office at 11am so I was terribly late and had to rush through the shop experience - didn't even try the free rosé! - but the vibe was incredibly positive and it was great being a part of it. The people I met in the queue were lovely, and it's great to see how her career has touched so many people throughout the years. It was sad and infuriating seeing all the scalpers lodging themselves in the queue to get as much stock as they could, I didn't realise it was such an organised "gang" activity until yesterday. There was a chap right in front of me in the queue, he couldn't have been 20 yet and I was happy to see her music touching a new generation. Instead he joined his gang mates inside, got four copies of the clear vinyl, a test pressing and two lithographs and walked out. These type of events should be reserved for fans ONLY but I guess there's no way they can monitor who is and who isn't a fan. I got my clear vinyl and a test pressing (after hesitating if I should or not splurge on one!) and they gave me the signed print and all the goodies which was cute. Everyone from the staff was absolutely lovely, even the security guards which are typically so serious and humourless. Fantastic experience overall and such a great way of celebrating the album! <3 PS: I even got papped in the queue! (the one with the backpack) haha @1705495574382780770

I'm on my way now! :cheer: Hope The Queue isn't too long yet!

This is my favourite song of the week. Really solid follow-up to IWAS in my opinion 🤷🏼‍♂️
