How does that suck for us guys?

Each is special in thier own right. Each have pluses and minuses...and have been wildly successful.

I like Kylie and I think I liked each and every one of her singles even the ones with PWL (except of maybe 2 or 3) but I own only a couple of compilation albums by her. On the other hand I own all the albums Madonna has released (except GHV2) and all the music-related DVDs of her.They are both good but Kylie was never and she will never be like Madonna and i don't think that anyone expects her to be either. But then again I don't think that anyone else is comparable to Madonna either. For me Madonna and Prince are on top. But Kylie is up there with the rest of the divas Janet, Whitney, Cher etc

I'm not a fan, but I think it's fair.

I don't really think about it.

She is outside the US.

I don't care one bit.

Kylie sucks, ugly voice, worst music, and a plastic/ botox face that even Axl Rose would be jealous of,

so...the U.S. doesn't count?

I'm not really a fan either, but daaamn oh my god, I thought about that letter Scott Weiland wrote to Axl telling him to get a new wig and calling him a fat botoxed face fuck oh my god....these are grown ass men using insults like that

Who is Kylie Minogue?

Seriously,Kylie must be a European sensation because here in the States,I have only heard one of her songs on the radio: "Can't Get You Out Of My Head",and that's the only video of hers that I have ever seen.I'm sure she has a large fanbase,but let's be real.She will never be the major superstar and icon that Madonna is.

That's probably true.

DavidEye said:

She's has 5 top 40 hits in the U.S.

The Locomotion: #3 (1988)
I Should Be So Lucky: #28 (1988)
It's No Secret: #37 (1989)
Can't Get You Out of My Head: #7 (2002)
Love At First Sight: #23 (2002)

She will never be big in the US. Frankly, with the state of American radio, I'm not surprised.

Moonbeam said:

Wow,I never heard those other songs.Were you a fan of hers in the 80s?

DavidEye said:

Nope!

"Can't Get You Out of My Head" was my trigger.

Moonbeam said:

so,you only became a fan of hers a few years ago?? You seem like you've been a fan FOREVER,lol.I was even starting to think that you left Madonna and Janet behind

DavidEye said:

Yeah- it's been a quick ride, as I've gotten about 100 Kylie related music items since then.

DavidEye said:

come on David you have to remember the girl with the poodle perm doing the loco-motion in the 80s

Since most people from the US seem 2 think Kylie is huge in Europe...


I'd like 2 point out that outside the UK-Australia Kylie is
nowhere near as big as Madonna..& even there Madonna has the edge..
she's not even on Britney's level in Europe..

She had a few hits during '88-'90 period,
The '90's where a complete flop..4 her,
with MTV & Airplay succes only. Most notable with:
'Confide in Me'(1994), 'Where The Wild roses Grow' (1995) & 'Spinning Around' (2000)

She had a 'real' comeback with 'Can't Get You Outta My Head' & the Fever
singles..'Body language' was a relative flop..

Her 'celebrity' is probably bigger than her commerical/musical
succes in Europe..

But, compared 2 her US efforts..she's definitely succesful in Europe.

Well, not a flop but it certainly didn't reach the sales figures of "Fever"...
