Don't let the gorgeous album cover fool you! Other than the four fantastic singles what does Fever have to offer 

Love Affair, Tightrope, Burning Up, the title track, Fragile and Boy Lowkey Give It to Me as well

and let us not forget the iconic tour 

[Freaky Prince]

KMO gets hate just because it flopped  It's a great album.

Swap

1. Beautiful
2. Feels So Good
3. I Was Gonna Cancel

with

1. Sparks
2. Golden Boy
3. Crystallize

and it's kinda her best album

Fever's album tracks took time to grow on outside the title track (which is my favourite song on the album) and Give It to Me, but the tracks are now incredible to me, especially the aforementioned two, Tightrope, Love Affair, Fragile, and Dancefloor.

 

Truly one of the greatest pop LPs of all time

I don't know why we're arguing about this when KM94 exists.

[Atlantis]

Not Fever and KM94 being worse than Stream Me Once.... What is this thread

KM94 and LY are sister albums in the sense that they have a handful of GODLY tracks (CIM, PYIMP, Falling, Surrender / SA, OANLT, Light Years, Disco Down) and the rest is her throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks

 

[T.O.A.D.S.]

Why is Sparks nowhere to be found? Did she scrub it from the internet?

The way these are the only tracks on KM94 I adore (+ Where Is The Feeling remix).

 

I disagree about Light Years though, Your Disco Needs You + Please Stay are also great.

Yeah, I like those two as well (+ Butterfly and Kids), but you can tell she was just recording ANYTHING for that album. It's got a lot of good tracks, but it's such an unfocused album.

[T.O.A.D.S.]

I haven't listened to Enjoy Yourself yet but this is how I would rank her albums so far...

 

1. IP

2. KM94

3. BL

4. KMO

5. X

6. Golden

7. Aphro

8. LY

9. LGTI

10. ROL

11. D15CO

12. K88

13. FVR

 

[Atlantis]

Considering switching to Apple Music because it has her best song Magnetic Electric

 

[Virgos Groove]

IP, Fever and Body Language is the undeniable trinity.

Has she said that?

Maybe it wasn’t successful because it wasn’t good enough or it didn’t deserve more. Who knows?

 

https://www.nme.com/news/music/kylie-minogue-2-9-1216353

 

and it’s been repeatedly said by insiders on SayHell that she doesn’t look at those years of her career fondly… (it’s also very telling that KMO was not included in Step Back In Time)

 

I mean she got ****** over by RocNation, the  label didn’t let her do the album she wanted to do, her touring concept got downsized extensively due to budget concerns, she was sued by a production company… the list goes on. 

 

all the while flopping and fully treading in has-been territory

[Virgos Groove]

2014-2017 is easily the lowest point in her post-IP career. The scaffolding tour The Xmas album The Voice Her singing in supermarkets Joshua

 

It makes her success from Golden onwards look even more impressive. Like, if you told me in 2017 that she'd be getting 170M+ streams for her album, I would've laughed in your face Mother and BMG truly did THAT

exactly! idk where this revisionist “you hate it because it flopped” KMO take is coming from. 

 

the Disco release week/numbers were so amazing to experience as a stan, it’s insane how they managed to turn things around

 

her career is better than it has been in more than a decade

Disco was a huge success for her at this point in her career. I wasn't even a stan at the time and even I heard buzz about it, more than that for albums like Caution, Madame X, Courage etc. 

 

The fact that it's still doing 200K+ streams daily is a testament to how well it did. It's gonna outsell both Golden, which outsell KMO. If they work on her playlisting a little bit (her 300+ non-CGYOOMH songs combined have the same amount of playlisting as Britney's Toxic ) and do better US promo for KM16, I think it's gonna do even better than Disco. Exciting times to be a Mother stan!

Relistening to my fanmade version of Disco rn and the extended mixes truly elevated it

That was such a fun week The way she was everywhere doing promo, all those positive reviews, and all of ATRL was stanning for her (except a certain fanbase). I still remember GMA announcing Trump's defeat while she performed Say Something. And her beating Little Mix was such a MOMENT

I really hope they start pushing her non-CGYOOMH/Santa Baby classics a little bit. Devil, Lucky, Confide and Especially for You having less than 20M streams is CRIMINAL

 

But, overall, she's doing really well, with 7M monthly listeners. Above Janet and slightly below Robbie (who just put out an album). Xmas season, the Brits medley (✨manifesting✨) and KM16 will give her a nice boost.

Yup. I even had one DMing me telling me he was gonna block me because I said I preferred Disco to Madame X   (In their defense, most of that base was pretty chill, but the ones who weren't were just... )

We need BMG to start sending some checks Devil and Confide at 50M would be a dream come true

 

Do you know where I can check her playlisting numbers?

Madge stans either adore Kylie or hate her, there seems to be no middle ground.

I check them on Chartmetric, but I think there are other more popular websites too.

You need to create an account there to see stuff though.
