I have received 5 submissions so far and I have not yet done my own. #Whoops!
When I am back from travels this week, I'll put together a larger reminder post.

Any chance that you could possibly extend deadline?

I don't see why not. I'll be away for a wedding next weekend anyway, so tabulation and reveals will probably begin closer to the end of the month anyway.

I'll definitely going to do this. I got into Kylie since I heard "Can't Get You Out of My Head", but I've never listened to her stuff pre-Fever aside "The Loco-Motion", "Spinning Around" and "Kids" if I remember correctly, so this is the perfect time to finally do that.

Up to 10 submissions!
There's currently an eight point spread between the Top 4, so it's any song's game!
Also, there are seven ties further down, so more rankings would be much appreciated to break some/all of those.

I feel like CGYOOMH is too obvious for #1. But, I do have another choice.

I feel like CGYOOMH is too obvious for #1. But, I do have another choice. That's why I use the Preference Revealer. My #1 was a mild surprise, but less so once I looked at the list. It also helps that I'm so familiar with Kylie's discography that I only needed to listen to Limpido before working through the Preference Revealer.

Submitted. Holly crap, was that a load of work. You should use the Preference Revealer and just modify results at the end if you are not satisfied. It is MUCH faster and I speak from personal experience, having used it for the massive Madonna rankdown that just came out.

It is MUCH faster and I speak from personal experience, having used it for the massive Madonna rankdown that just came out. I may use it next time So far I've done all my rankdowns (including long ones) by group rankings and then individual revisions. This was pretty tough!!! Particularly because Kylie has such a varied discography and it's not that easy to compare her 80s bubblegum pop hits with her 2000s music. I may have a few outliers in my top 10 so I look forward to the results! Awesome to be listening so much Kylie these past couple of weeks :))

PWL - 23 songs Deconstruction - 10 songs Parlophone - 25 songs Roc Nation - 12 songs
Some stats for the bottom 10 coming later today. We lose 5 songs from the PWL years and 5 songs from the Roc Nation years. 3 Top 10 losses, two of which are Top 5's. 4 songs only have one ranking in the top half (35). 6 collaborations say farewell The point values fall between 680 and 815

I'm guessing the other 18 PWL songs aren't long for this rankdown either. :sip2: I tell ya, the order of my bottom 20 might as well have been randomized.

I forgot to mention, we also lose four #70s in the bottom 10 as well. And now for the first reveal! #70: BeautifulEnrique Iglesias with Kylie MinogueStatsPoints: 810 Average: 57.857 Std Dev: 13.694 Charts Australia #47 History & Tidbits Beautiful was released as a promo single from Kiss Me Once and Enrique Iglesias' Sex & Love album. The song was sent to radio and digital outlets in Australia and New Zealand in March 2014. No video was filmed, though a North American release was rumoured at the time. Host Opinion This was my #70, so that speaks volumes. The pleasant sentiment is lost amongst the gratuitous auto-tune and Kylie and Enrique's weak harmony. It doesn't help that I love "Fine" a lot and find myself impatiently awaiting "Beautiful" ending to get to it next. Enrique could've kept this mess on his album alone and I'd've been okay with that. Judging by the plethora of low rankings, Pulse shares the overall tepid reaction to this song too. Participant RankingsAlbie - 33 Az Paynter - 34 aerodynamite - 41 Juanca - 50 Leo ✔ - 51 @phillippe - 56 Illusions - 66 Ezekiel 23:20–21 - 67 Juan Carlos - 68 Glove Slap - 68 God - 68 Willow Rinadoobee Breakfast - 69 Ginger Spice - 69 bat1990 - 70

This one is way too slow and autotuned. Should've been a dance jam, especially with Enrique.

The auto-tune kind of works here, I think. It's a bit too thickly layered in some parts, but for the most part, it creates a fuller effect and adds a certain impactful quality to it.
