Very simple, but with her voice it becomes unique. I will never stop believing that she'll one day release an album where she uses that voice to new levels! She can do amazing stuff with it, someone just need to make her realize that. I'll send her a copy of The Dreaming! 8-)

They haven't. :-? They supported every single even when it looked a bit iffy sales-wise. Now she finally makes a song that sounds current, they ignore her. Makes no sense. So unless commercial radio goes for it she has no major airplay. (It's too clubby for Radio 2 - Kylie is as dance as they get).

Quite expected, for some reason. Good luck next week Marina!

Interview with Radio 1 (22 Aug)

It's from when Radioactive had its premiere. Did not get the Greek mythology thing.. really.. as the lyrics for this song to me are just simple - about love.

Gotta say I loved this song after hearing only the first 30 seconds, there is something about it that's very addictive! Stargate are producing some great stuff this year I hope she has done more songs with them. The video is a little weird and different but for that reason I liked it. I feel this could be her most successful single to date.

Great on first listen.

I do like this :)


However, isn't the supposed purpose of this song and the Electra Heart thing, to represent everything she 'hates' about the chart, so she's making a commercial sounding song, to prove a point when its successful?

LOVE this! It's so clubby, the beginning of it makes me think i'm in a club lol. It's her best single since "Hollywood" and now it looks as if it could do just as well, if not better! :D
