10/10?

10 Out of 10 is really elevated from being on the album though will never be a stand alone track I search out. Any reason why streaming skips it?
I read something about this yesterday on Say Hey but thought it had been sorted. I thought it was an Apple Music thing? Certainly hasn't happened to me once on Spotify yet.

I stream through Amazon Music and it’s still going straight to Story on there today. Don’t know if that affects the album stream figures or not. I guess not if they still discount the top and bottom stream.
 
Actually I've just looked on my amazon music (the free with Prime level), and it's greyed out on the tracklisting for me.
 
10/10 is too cunt for basic bitch streaming services like amazon or apple, fact fans
 
I was GOING to say this is a true NO SKIP ALBUM but then I realised I always start it at track 2 :eyes:
 
I like Padam but I think I've heard it enough for the time being

Nothing under a 7 here anyway, and mostly 8s with a couple of 9s for ME

That's the real marvel. I totally listen to Green Light even though it's my least fave.

The "lows" really aren't very low and Saint Kylie knows we had some LOWS in the past.

Hold On To Now at Party In The Park hits about a thousand times harder now.ive listened to it 20 times or whatever it is.

The confetti cannons going off the moment the beat drops the first time 😭.

Cannot wait for it to lead into All The Lovers during the Encore of the Tension tour next year.

I do think Padam is not the right opener. I have a mild dislike of albums that open with the lead single just to get it out the way. I really like a SULTRY GEM kicking things off. I think my improved tracklist is something like this

01. Hold On To Now
02. Things We Do For Love
03. Tension
04. Padam Padam
05. One More Time
06. You Still Get Me High
07. Just Imagine
08. Vegas High
09. 10 out of 10
10. Story
11. Somebody to Love

I don't think I'll be revisiting Hands or Green Light at all, the rest are a clear cut above

What a triumph. This is a Caution-level event for Kylie - a late-career gem, and even a high watermark in her career. Definitely her best album since the early 2000s.

It's all high-quality but the Top 8 are especially good.

The top 11 tracks would make a perfect album for me. I have grown to properly adore Hands - it comes at the perfect time on the album.
 
I like Hands- I like everything.

But it’s definitely the weakest.
 
The first four tracks whip you into such a pop-frenzy, it takes all my resolve not to "WHOOO" at 3:13 of Tension when I'm around people. What a juggernaut :disco:
 
One More Time really deserves loads more love than it's getting. it's such a fun BOP!

I feel like it could've been a Disco track if Disco had been a much better album than it was.
 
I love it - it's not mid tier at all, despite where is ranks on my list.
 
(also it reminds me a little of the admittedly far inferior Sexy Love which I always loved)
 
I've been skipping Green Light and Hands but I played the album tonight in full, and you know what? THEY STILL SUCK!

The lyrics to Somebody To Love are so STUN

One day the arrow’s gonna get through
Nothing you can do
It’s automatic
You won’t know what you’re getting into
But when it happens, it’s cinematic

Strangers to friends and to lovers
Open your heart and let the solo go
We could be
good for each other
Don’t have to do it alone

So if you want somebody to love you
And you’re feeling like the time is right
Maybe I could be the one that you run to
And forever could be starting tonight
I just want it to be real
Don’t ever break it up
I know going with the
feeling can be tough
But baby if you want somebody to love you
That someone is me

Could be a dream we’re holding onto
But just imagine
It could be magic

Strangers to friends and to lovers
Open your heart and let the solo go
We could be
good for each other
Don’t have to do it alone

So if you want somebody to love you
And you’re feeling like the time is right
Maybe I could be the one that you run to
And forever could be starting tonight
I just want it to be real
Don’t ever break it up
I know going with the feeling can be tough
But baby if you want somebody to love you
That someone is me

Know what it feels like right at midnight
That’s when hearts get torn in two
But if it’s wrong I don’t wanna be right
Let those arrows shoot right through

Singing oh
Oh

If you want somebody to love you
When you’re feeling like the time is right
Maybe I could be the one that you run to
And forever could be starting tonight
I just want it to be real
Don’t ever break it up
I know going with the
feeling can be tough
But baby if you want somebody to love you
That someone is me

Singing oh
Oh


Hitting hard tonight.
