Calum

Binged my way through this and it was amazing. Diane Morgan is just brilliant, and her physical comedy in a role like this was spot on The weakest part of the series for me was how much focus was given to Michael/Renee, both pretty unlikeable characters all round with no redeeming qualities. Would've much preferred more time spent seeing Linda and Sue getting up to god knows what lmao.

9 Your Disco Needs You UK chart peak: N/A From: Light Years Light Years loses its first of three singles in the top 10; Your Disco Needs You. Despite never actually being released as a single in the UK (because it was considered too gay and camp lol), it did manage to chart in the top 200 but it not being a top 100 single for Kylie is genuinely one of the most criminal things of the 21st century. Despite all of that, Your Disco Needs You is genuinely one of the best things Kylie has ever done and is iconic in so many ways. The Showgirl tour performance, seeing her bring the sixth act to a close with a proper on-stage celebration, belting it so loud and proud, sends shivers down the spine. It's such a euphoric, feel-good song that encourages everybody to get to that bloody disco. We also got a glimpse into the recording process for the song on Kylie's recent Netflix documentary seeing the repeated attempts to master the operatic high note, giving you even more reason to appreciate her and the song for delivering such an iconic moment. Your Disco Needs You has definitely been stamped into gay culture, so whoever had the deciding vote that it would've diminished her image must be kicking themselves now.

10 Put Yourself in My Place UK chart peak: #11 From: Kylie Minogue Before I comment on Put Yourself in My Place, a quick glance at what's to come in the top 10 and besides some individuals, the majority are singles from Light Years, Fever and Aphrodite. Hardly surprising given I'd say these are three albums that absolutely gave us some of Kylie's strongest ever singles. Classics that will never be forgotten and are strongly embedded in pop culture in some way or another. As for Put Yourself in My Place, my first exposure to it was... you guessed it... the Showgirl tour. The final act before the encore, Kylie appeared ethereally on stage to perform this and Can't Get You Out of My Head and it was absolutely stunning. The second single (coming after Confide in Me, but ahead of it in this countdown) from Kylie Minogue, it's such a beautiful ballad and really highlights just how good a vocalist Kylie is. Not only that but it's accompanied by a brilliant music video. No surprise that most critics consider it one of the highlights of Kylie's career too. Every time I go back to this I'm reminded just why I love it so much, so it simply had to make the top 10 here.

Renewed for a third series!

11 Giving You Up UK chart peak: #6 From: Ultimate Kylie 12 Confide in Me UK chart peak: #2 From: Kylie Minogue Confide in Me, the lead single from Kylie's self-titled fifth album, is alongside Giving You Up as the two that just miss the top 10 here. Confide in Me was the beginning of a new era - Kylie leaving PWL behind, releasing music with Deconstruction Records and no longer feeling like PWL's 'puppet'. And while Kylie manages to retain her signature sound with whatever she puts her voice to, you can tell that there's a really big shift in style. Confide in Me, considering its time too, really does manage to push the envelope and has rightfully remained one of those Kylie songs that's held in such high regard by so many. It's moody, it's rousing, it's atmospheric, it's powerful, emotional and has both a weight and tenderness to it that draws you in. You feel that even more when you watch her performing it live and being so lost in the moment. And just ahead of Confide in Me, Giving You Up... I feel like this is one that I'll get side eyes from a few for its high position here, but alas I really don't care because I've always had such a soft spot for it and it will forever be one of those Kylie songs that I grew up loving. I can so vividly remember the music video, the live performance(s), listening to the song so much when I was younger. It's one I still go back to a fair bit too. The music video for one is, for me, absolutely one of Kylie's most iconic in terms of visuals. AI Rita Ora clearly got her inspiration from the Giving You Up video. Although it was removed from the setlist for the Homecoming tour and replaced with White Diamond, it slotted in so perfectly on the Showgirl tour in the first act alongside Better the Devil You Know, In Your Eyes and On a Night Like This. This and I Believe in You as a singles package supporting Ultimate Kylie really was top notch.

New single from Joshua out tonight!

13 I Believe in You UK chart peak: #2 From: Ultimate Kylie 14 In My Arms UK chart peak: #10 From: X I did think going into this that I'd have I Believe in You in my top 10, but alas it's landed just outside it at #13. For me, despite lyrically being one of the most simplistic songs ever, it's so beautiful. The lead single from Ultimate Kylie and another collaboration with Jake Shears, I Believe in You was considered a return to form by many after Body Language wasn't received the best universally, and also earned Kylie a Grammy nomination. I think looking back now, it's definitely one of the most iconic early 2000s Kylie singles, and the music video just as iconic. Live performances, such as on the Showgirl tour and Aphrodite: Les Folies prove that it translates just as well in that setting too, providing some of the most dramatic and endearing moments. I Believe in You, however, isn't the highest placing single from Ultimate Kylie here, with one more yet to come. In My Arms was the third single from X, and despite being one of the best songs from the album (and the highest-placing single from the album in this countdown!), it ended up actually being Kylie's lowest-charting single in Australia since Cowboy Style. Seeing In My Arms come to life live - particularly on the KylieX2008 tour in the Black versus White act, was great. It's one of those songs that really pops and has its moment; particularly with the rocked-up version of the song performed on the Aphrodite: Les Folies tour. Unlike, for example, Slow and Can't Get You Out of My Head where some of her singles are revamped for live performances and it leaves me a little cold, this was one that was interesting to see a different take on. Definitely, in my opinion, the best single choice from the X era, and a single that will always stand up against some of her very best.

Sinner to win. But feel like this year has been very uninteresting overall to follow. My king Draper better be back and in perfect health next year ready to bring them all down x

The last thing we need is her essentially becoming the UK right’s version of Charlie Kirk

I don’t mind them having a Love Island name on, but him and Dani?

Cobolli really needs to tighten up and try sweep the next 3 sets but I don’t see it happening sadly.

Happy for Fery to have made it this far, but I am firmly team Cobolli today 🙈
