Kylie's next single "Wow" (cover & info)

Kylie's second single from her "X" album is album's stand-out track, "Wow". It will be the second single in selected markets, while Continental Europe releases "In My Arms" as "X"'s second single.

The single has been charting in the UK's singles charts ever since Kylie performed the song in "The X Factor". After dropping out of the Top 40, the digital-only single jumps 43-29. The physical single is released on February 25, 2008.

None of the remixes do the song justice... We get two electro mixes (Snoozeville!), a death metal / disco mix (WTF?), and a remix by Brazilian troupe Cansei De Ser Sexy (of "Music Is My Hot, Hot Sex" fame). I would've been happy with an extended. Was a house mix too much to ask for? I just hope that Junior, Tony, Peter, Offer and their ilk all stay away from this song.



1. Fuc k Me I'm Famous Remix By David Guetta & Joachim Garraud
2. MSTRKRFT Remix
3. Death Metal Disco Scene Mix
4. CSS Remix
5. Radio Edit

I've cut down my import cd single buying alot over the last few years due to lack of variety within re-mixes. I rememeber back in 2000 when the band a-Ha commissioned remixes on all their singles from their 2000 album "minor earth major sky" and they basically were getting the remixers to make the tracks totally new by using other vocal mixes from their recording sessions, a-Ha carried this over to their 2002 album "lifelines" and when they got to the "lifelines" single they brought in Boogieman,Console,Palace of Pleasure and Millenia Nova on remixes and there again they took the song in so many different directions, and as one of the members said "we wanted remixers to work not just take our songs and go to Ibiza with them", on their next album in 2005 when the first single came out "celice" and the mixes were done, a-Ha were not pleased this time which what the mixers did, and only one mix survived which was done by Paul Van Dyk, others done by him and other djs did get put out on a cd single but a-Ha had that version of the single deleted after its release, and the rest of the singles on that album were not given any remixes, they just used alternate versions live tracks or unreleased songs.

Kylie has had some great remixes. The last one that really blew me away the Fischerspooner remix of Come Into My World.

And the chill mix of I Believe In You.

Neither "Wow" nor "In My Arms" really excites me, but they might end up being hits. shrug

I'm pulling for "The One" and "Speakerphone".
