I don't really know or mind what wins, but I guess I'll root for "Word Is Out"

Finer Feelings is the only correct #1, imo.

This was very, very close. A few adjustments in rankings could have shifted the balance for a different winner. Expand the Spoiler tag below to find out the results...

I would have switched up the order a little bit, but the top three was on point. Thanks for hosting bat1990! I didn't fully appreciate this album until I got the boxset. I definitely prefer the single mixes of "Finer Feelings" and "Word Is Out." And I prefer the 12"/Extended mixes of "Too Much Of A Good Thing," "Let's Get To It," "Right Here Right Now" and "Live And Learn." "GMJALMT" and the two ballads are harmless filler. I really wish "Closer" had made the album, it would have been the perfect track to replace "I Guess I Like It Like That," which is just rancid IMO.

"Word Is Out" was probably my favorite discovery of this series thus far. Loved that one -- happy it won!

I've always felt like "Finer Feelings" (Brothers in Rhythm Remix) was a teaser for what she was about to do with Deconstruction Records in the mid-90s. Also, here are the single mixes Az Paynter was talking about.

3. Too Much Of A Good Thing (7): The instrumental overall is good, but there are some production elements that are quite cringe, like the post-chorus Let's Get To It Aaaaaah, and then the far too loud background vocals that bury Kylie's vocals a bit too much. Otherwise, the beat is fine. 2. Finer Feelings (1): Back in the Kylie RD, I placed this at #41, the highest from this album. For this RD, this remained my favorite song of this album. Very nice melody and lush production, with cool, seductive vocals. 1. Word Is Out (3): Such a different NJS-lite vibe for Kylie. Sounds cool and interesting, but don't find it as interesting as FF. I do like the Summer Breeze Mix a bit better than the original... Thanks, bat1990 for another good RD!

Can I just say I appreciate how fast you are doing these rankdowns. I am one of the most impatient people on earth so having to wait to see reveals is a nightmare lol. You are doing great!

Thank you schnetzka! I'm trying to do one set per month. That way, we'll be able to do Disco at the end because we'll have all had it for 6+ months. I'm contemplating taking a break between sets to do Kylie Christmas: Snow Queen Edition in December.

I haven't had any interest in artist or album rankdowns lately, but I just might make an exception here.
As of now, I'm planning on doing this.
