Kylie Minogue is one of the most popular singers out there with a career spanning over 30 years. She has come up with songs that span all over the emotional spectrum. It is tough to choose, but after much contemplation, here are some of the top songs by Kylie Minogue.
Spinning Around
Kylie has come out with songs that have given her names like Moody Kylie, Indie Kylie and Mature Kylie. However, her most popular song is Spinning Around, released in 2000. Kylie was born to put out ultimate headbanging, dance-inducing pop bangers and Spinning Around was the most glamorous, euphoric and addictive song of her career, this is one song that anyone would thoroughly enjoy.
Confide In Me
Reinventing herself as a sophisticated self-conscious artist with an aim to put out better content, she made a series of experimental and yet popular songs. One of these, Confide In Me, was one of the most popular pop songs of her career. Played in the melody of Jane’s acapella, the song is sultry, atmospheric and just overall fantastic.
Can’t Get You Out Of My Head
A very odd sort of experimental song, Can’t Get You Out My Head featured in 2001 with no chorus and queasy sounding bridge notes. It did not exactly have verses, but there was a distinct darkness to the classy delivery of the lyrics about catatonic obsession that made it stand out from the usual glam songs of the time. The costumes in the video of the song were also quite unique, making it stand out even more.
Better The Devil You Know
An effortlessly amazing melody, a perfect recreation of the disco’s mix of lyrics about heartbreak and jubilant music and possessing masterpiece craftsmanship, Better The Devil You Know is a quality control free music track that reaches into your heart and wrenches it out.
Most of the Stock Aitken and Waterman (SAW) artists who tried asserting their individuality and self-expression through the record company failed miserably, but with Kylie, everything changed. Shocked came out in 1990 with better writing, classier beats and a few popular remixes, it captured the essence of house piano, breakbeat and rap, it became a hit song at the time.
Slow
Analogue synths and drum machines run the music and vibe of this 2003 pop hit. It is hypnotically irresistible, and the surprisingly understated brand of pop music is amplified here greatly. Warm and sensual, and at the same time entirely electronic, Kylie has stated that Slow is one of her very own personal favourites among her tracks. The Chemical Brothers remixed this iconic pop song later on, which is also quite fabulous on its own too.
