  1. How is it doing on UK specific Spotify lists? For Kylie's label I'm sure, unless it's a UK hit, it's not a hit ;)
  2. Kylie- Turn it into Love Enjoy Yourself-Enjoy Yourself or Overdreaming Rhythm of Love - Always Find the Time, album version of Shocked! Lets Get To It- live and learn Kylie Minogue- where has the love gone Impossible Princess- Dreams Light Years - none Fever- love affairs Tightrope Body Language Loving Days X- Like a Drug Aphrodite Heart strings Kiss Me Once - title track Kylie Christmas- (never heard this album) Golden Raining Glitter Disco Last chance or don’t wanna miss a thing Tension Vegas High
  3. This is so amazing, and it feels like it’s a proper global smash unlike PP
  4. It's really holding well, I wasn't expecting this.
  5. Oh my it's doing very well! I still don't see it on the UK top 200 spotify though (on kworb).
  6. Again, aware that her first 3 singles went to no1 in Oz, and I'm not saying they hate Kylie or anything. Just saying the UK loved Kylie unconditionally, esp in the early years when she needed that support and encouragement. On the other hand, Kylie had to earn love and respect in Australia. The one good thing Aus did for her was giving Confide a full 4 weeks at #1 ;) Also, given that Kylie has a British passport as well, I wonder why they don't nominate her in the British categories.
  7. Her first freakin #1 Aus album was in 2000, well over a decade into her career. Australia jumped on the Kylie bandwagon AFTER the UK made her a star. Today, there is respect in Australia for kylie because she proved that even without the support backing of her own country the first few years of her career, she could make it by working hard and perservering. To me, home and family are the people you can count on when you're down and need someone to watch your back. Aus did neither in the early days.
  8. Not Rick or Jesse ware pls. I love them but they’re both Harley A listers. Maybe Pete waterman?!
  9. I hope it's a current big superstar like an Adele (assuming she's visiting the UK), Dua, James Cordon or even a has-been like David Beckham. Sometimes a high profile presenter can garner as much attention as the recipient itself
  10. As far as I'm concerned, UK is HER home and will always be. Australia to me is just her birthplace. Australia got on the Kylie bandwagon only around the IP time but the UK has unconditionally supported her, raised her and loved her even when she was uncool (in her native country) during the Neighbours days. There's also a huge difference in terms of responses between the British and Aussies. A lot of aussies still cringe at the mention of her name, even though they'd call her a "national treasure". But the British genuinely seem happy to talk about her, even those that don't listen to her songs or like them have something nice to say about her, like she's a family member or something.
  11. Me too. I definitely want the TOTP ROL medley or even the Audience With (2001) medley at the end. Of course she'll do Padam, tension, All the lovers and LAFS. Just pls pls no Locomotion or a piano version of Lucky!
  12. I agree overall...and the bolded is probably what Kylie and her record label thought as well when signing up for this duet. Besides which, the duet is so basic I doubt she spent more than a day singing the vocals. This looks even less work than her Neighbours cameo :D
  13. I'm kind of sure her record label would've negotiated that she leave with some kind, any kind of hardware if she were going to show up.
  14. LOL! Probably Kylie is moving away from the "I need to score a hit" to more of 'how do I establish myself on streaming" as that's what record companies are looking at these days, and in that sense she's achieved it with this song. As an old chart watcher myself, maybe I need to get out of the "it isn't a hit if it doesn't chart" mentality as well but look at lifetime streaming numbers?
  15. Win. At least it’ll make it into headlines and her name will be around for a few days unlike a TV perf which doesn’t seem To help her chart wise (at least, off late)
  16. Day 3 was supposedly some 860K streams on Spotify but don’t know how much of it was UK
  17. Thanks Liam. Apologies in advance for the stupid question but is that global? And is that good/healthy or meh?
  18. At this point from a Spotify POV, she’s getting a lot more support than her Tension singles did. Plus, we have the sia fan base as well. All up to the audience and the merit of the song. Is Sia still big in the uk these days like 2012-16? This is amazing but I hope capitalFM and R1 get on board as well. Will R1’s ageist policies apply to sia as well?! Lol
  19. This is quite impressive. I don't think any of the Tension singles made it this high on the NMF list. Hopefully it translates into some kind of chart placing, enough to encourage either label to put out a few physical singles (at least in the UK where it has the highest chance of success), remixes, video, etc. etc.
  20. Lostboy accepted the award and thanked her.
  21. Has NMF UK updated yet? It's looking the same for me
  22. Regardless of how high PP charted or how much Tension sold, the nicest thing about the US response to her this era has been openly complimenting her legacy in the industry, the UK chart records, etc. There's a sense of respect, aura and a "we Americans missed the Kylie train" feeling in the interviews. I'm loving that. Grammy win is icing on the cake.
  23. OMG Houdini always plays right after this song on my spotify! lol
  24. Kudos to her record company for getting her just about everywhere in 2024....cashing in on the residency and extended time in the usa
  25. TBH, I did enjoy it from the first listen but was a bit dismissive as B-side material but I believe it's solid single/lead song material.
