With two decades of smash hits behind her, Kylie Minouge certainly has the back catalogue to excite her fans. Add too that fantastic dancers, exceptional costumes and a touch of star quality and you get the best ever performance from Kylie, and possibly the best pop concert ever.
The show kicks off with 'better the devil you know', and you can't help bet get excited when the 10,000 + crowd start screaming with excitement has Kylie is raised onto the stage floor. You know you are in for a treat.
She is dressed as - none other than - a peacock! Sounds curious I know, but it's a look only Ms Minouge could carry off. After the fantastic debut song has played, she rolls out the tunes effortlessly. Everything from 'Especially for you' thru to her last pop hit -'Giving you up', she really delves into her poptastic past. The dance routines are exceptional - when 'I should be so lucky' is being performed, the dancers all stand behind her and do sign language to the lyrics - peculiar I know, but it really does work.
She then dresses up in a fabulous dress and gets anchored above the audience on a sequined moon, where she belts out 'Somewhere over the rainbow', a really unique and excellent rendition of the song. She then sings 'come into my world', a reworking of the original version that really works.
The highlight for me is when she performs 'I believe in you'. The dancers are on two different levels, that both move in different directions, with Kylie on a higher lever singing the song. She sings the song low (unlike the original version), but then pulls out all stops during the last chorus where she belts the song out. She is one of the rare breeds of pop singers that can sing live - and in tune.
I would recommend this to anyone - even if you only know a couple of songs by Kylie you will still be entertained by this exceptional performance.
She called the tour 'Showgirl' and in my eyes she truly is.

this girl will be around for a long time yet I hope, she is great, the only female artist I think that comes close to her talent AND popularity is Madonna, but she is exceptional in her own right. Good review, dempsey :-)
