Is there one for her? I figured we needed an official place for all things Kylie.

What do you guys think of Light Years? I've had the singles for years but I just bought the album and looking forward to listening to it.

Spinning Around was the first Kylie song I ever heard and I was instantly hooked. I still remember how often they played that video in summer of 2000.

Light Years is a little cheesy, but such a FUN and well produced album. It holds up well. I love just about every track. Disco Down is an absolute gem of an album track and the title track is brilliant too. My favorite Kylie album is the underrated Let's Get To It. I think it's such a cute and fun album. Word Is Out is so fierce.

I liked Light Years... I might work my way back to her first album, since I love the singles I've heard.

You were right Chris, Disco Down and Lights Years are great and Bittersweet Goodbye was a surprise.

It's sad to see she's only had mediocre (at best) success in the US. I always thought Can't Get You Out Of My Head was her biggest success here but I guess not lol

I find Into The Blue to be an epic song and her best lead single since Can't Get You Out Of My Head. I can't understand why her label didn't do more promo for it. She should've performed it on The Brits and the fact that they didn't do one televised performance in the UK is just crazy. I was so sad to see it miss the top 10. Sexercize is meant as a buzz track and I hope it does well. The album is at #2 in the charts, which is good at least. Still shocked that she's with Roc Nation and they've done so little to promote. It'll be interesting to see what the promo is like in the US.

The actual album is very good. I Was Gonna Cancel is FANTASTIC and sounds unique to Kylie and not like Pharrell gave her cast-offs. Same with the two Sia (who executive produced the album) written songs, Sexercize and Kiss Me Once which are both album highlights that sound like Kylie songs. If Only is probably the highest high on the album and definitely deserves the single treatment. Sexy Love, If Only, Kiss Me Once, I Was Gonna Cancel and Les Sex could all be good singles from this album. I hope she releases different singles in different territories so we get more videos!

I'm enjoying the album very much. Feels So Good is a definitely highlight for me. And they'll be stupid if they don't release Beautiful as a single in the US. Enrique Iglesias still gets played on the radio and the song is perfect to get Kylie some US airplay. And it's produced by Mark Taylor! I would love if he did more with Kylie, their sounds/styles could really mesh well.

In Germany, "Kiss Me Once" has peaked at #9 so far which is higher than "Body Language" and "X" ever did. "Aphrodite" peaked at #3, though.

"Into The Blue" peaked at #31 on the singles chart which is a moderate success.

Kylie performed live at the Echo Awards (the German Grammys) last week.

I used to dance my ass off to RBW in the clubs. Still do actually. lol. Whitey mix and Naurotic Thrust remixes rock.

I never knew how GOMW did so happy to see it did great. Cuz the intro to the video with everyone not moving like puppets with cut strings have always gotten to me.

And now....OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KYLIE HAS A NEW CD AND i DIDN'T KNOW!!!! :D :D :D

Sorry. I love all my music divas, but Kylie as my friends know became my ride or die diva. So I feel :( I didn't know.

      I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.

        I'm sorry but I'm a glutton for punishment. Would love to see this woman OWNING the canvas. Telling off Leslie who tells her she's the head b!tch.

      And in case anyone is confused; Rusty was hired by HB to work undercover and infiltrate some gang sabotaging Lewis.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      By kalbir · Posted

      40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season. The Cosby Show – Cliff’s Birthday (season 1 finale, May 9): Clair and the children surprise Cliff by planning a birthday celebration around a Lena Horne concert. Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.

      Another World Discussion Thread

      By Xanthe · Posted

      Charles Grant first appeared as Evan in September 1988. I was surprised to come across this item from December 1985, almost 3 years earlier: "Lots of action behind the scenes at Another World . . . I have bad news for fans of Christopher Holder (Peter Love). He will be leaving the show in the new year. I have heard that the producers are recasting the part and are also seeing actors for new roles. One of the main characters this spring will be Marlee [sic] and Victoria's father. The producers have been talking to Charles Flohe (John "Preacher" Emerson, Edge Of Night) about another new character to be featured. I will fill you in on the results as soon as I know." It seems obviously too early for anyone to have been planning to introduce Evan Frame. Based on the context he's not being considered as a recast of Peter. Maybe they were considering him for the character that turned out to be Neal, who started around the same time as Marcus Smythe as Peter?

      That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
