As @JoshVilla says upthread, bound to ruffle some feathers. In that case, I understand. Not so much ruffled feathers - I mean people can like or dislike what they want, I was just stunned, really.

I don't like any Beatles songs, nor Queen, nor Elvis I thought elvis, I like burning love I actually like a few cover versions of his songs but find him a bit slow and dour most of the time, just don't like his voice or singing style, can't help falling in love for example there's a great song in there somewhere but not delivered by him, the UB40 version is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of her stuff...meh. ‘Confide in me’ and ‘Where the Wild Roses Grow’ are good songs. This is just generic supermarket pop. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just generic supermarket pop. Where the Wild Roses Grow is a belting song. From a belting album by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Murder Ballads. I don’t think I know confide in me. And yeah, can’t get you out of my head is pop , I just think it’s one of the best pop songs ever made. It’s basically a perfect pop song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted October 21, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 21, 2022 “Confide in Me” was one of the additional songs I was thinking of where I felt I couldn’t say Kylie just has one good tune. Quite different to her typical output. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I am not a fan of Kylie but she did have some belting tunes, off her last but one album, Dancin. Than all the way back to her debut there were a couple of tracks on each album that were good. If you got past the fact that it was PWL at its most manufacturered.

AlwaysAVFC Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I thought I had a Kylie contender and Some kind of bliss but just relistened and its probably not as good as I remember. Possibly written by The Manics? Certainly sounds very mid nineties. She does look good in the video though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
