"Count the Days" always sounded really juvenile to me in comparison to the mature sound of the rest of the record.
I've always been team "Always Find the Time" and "Secrets" along with the title track, which made the top 5

The album version is where it's at.
I've always hated the remix, neuters the production and intro, takes out the rock elements, adds that corny ass rap. No thanks!

nice. I didn't hate anything here but this was pretty unremarkable from what i remember
I don't mind what wins now but I'd definitely prefer BTDYK

Let's get this done. Clearly I'm the only one that doesn't like "Step Back In Time" This was absolutely no contest. BTDYK was on top from the beginning and never yielded - it was really a matter of seeing where everything else placed. Life is for Living@mirza SHOOTER

Side-eyeing the fact that there is even ONE BTDYK ranking outside the top 5. Although that #4 is also a bit low. :sip2:

So happy BTDYK destroyed this; it was my favourite Kylie song for a while, and it's still definitely top 5

Shame. This is easily the most fun song on this album. My brother had it on a mix tape from his 90s club days and elementary school Albie was all about it.

Catching up with Rhythm of Love RD. 5. Rhythm of Love (10): I didn't care much for the melody or the lesser sorta NJS style, and vocals got a bit Minnie-is in the chorus. Pass. 4. Shocked (4): Well, I'm glad I listened to the album version, otherwise I would've ranked the remix bottom 3 I like the production in the original, especially the rock guitar and overall darker vibe, and the strong intro. I mean, I placed this in bottom 10 of the Kylie RD, so I don't think it's amazing either, but I would likely rank this a bit higher now. 3. What Do I have To Do (3): I like this more modern SAW-like sound. If the melody were a bit stronger, it could be in my top 30 Kylie songs... 2. Step Back In Time (2): I go back and forth between this and Better. Back when I did the Kylie RD, I ranked this higher than Better. I like the disco, Kool & The Gang vibe. Fun, catchy melody that sounds timeless. 1. Better The Devil You Know (1): In the past year, this has consolidated as my favorite song from this album, and (re)entered my top 15 Kylie songs. The piano melody is great, the production is also quite strong, and her vocals soar, too. Deserving winner!

Right Here, Right Now from the X sessions >
I’m not the biggest fan of Let’s Get to It, my second least favorite album after Enjoy Yourself.
Btw love the graphics so far!

Let's Get To It RD
10. No World Without You (10): Clear bottom to me. Not a fan of melody at all, and the production was just meh. Strong pass. 9. Live and Learn (8): At least the melody was better, but still weak IMO. The production was ok but a bit stale even for that time. 8. I Like It Like That (9): This was a puzzling track to me. Where is Kylie? She has as much part in this song as the background vocals, and much less than the music, which in turn are samples. Plus, I loved Get Ready For This, so if I want to hear that music, I'd go for the original without a doubt. Another strong pass. 7. Right Here, Right Now (4): Although I ranked it at #4, I find this song also forgettable. I mean, it's at least catchy, but quite generic. Frankly, this whole album is slightly more forgettable than Enjoy Yourself to me. So I prefer Giorgio Moroder's MUCH more than this one. 6. Let's Get To It (5):This skipped my bottom half just slightly due to my liking the melody and vocals a tiny bit more than others, but this is still pretty meh IMO. 5. If You Were With Me Now (2): I wasn't a big fan of this, but lately I've grown to like it a bit more after hearing some different versions that elevated the original. Plus, she sounds pretty good here.

Give Me.... was in my bottom 3 of the Kylie RD. Her tone managed to be a bit yellish / obnoxious, her Brrrrr was annoying, the overall melody/production was not bad, but just a bit meh. An unnecessary cover that despite ts flaws sounded a tad better than 4 other songs in this album for me.

I wonder if my music taste has any correlation with my lack of friends because apparently I differentiate from everyone haha.

So the top two are only separated by 3 points.
Any predictions?
