Kylie Minogue - Confide in me (Live in New York)

[@bustergoldenrod]

I’ve seen her live four times, massive respect to her. She always puts a great show together and sings every song 100% live.

[@Miss-Katie]

She is really surprising vocally when you see her live.

[@LeoStubbing]

Kylie is so underrated in the US, she released her first single in Australia in 1987 - to be still having # 1 albums & sold out tours over 35 years later - it takes a true legend to do that. People underestimate Kylie vocally, but if you ever experience her live, she knocks it out of the park. She is the perfect popstar, a trail blazer in the industry, Madonna is the queen of pop but Kylie is the princess - no one else comes close!

[@adrianboardman162]

Cher I think wins the title of Dowager Countess. Madonna and Kylie are similar vocally. But Kylie does trump Madonna ever so slightly.

[@popland1977]

@@adrianboardman162 To be fair, Cher deserves to be included in such conversations

[@leandabee]

I loooove Ms Kylie. I think her voice is top notch. To still be performing after 40 years is a testament to her talent. Her song with Nick Cave, Wild Roses, is beautiful too🥰

[@chrispower5136]

Checkout Kylie live with the crying game is absolutely incredible and amazing. 😊

[@guillaumesmit6538]

'Your Disco Needs' you live at the Royal Albert Hall... All I'm saying

[@NatalieJayne1]

I think because Kylie’s bread and butter came from pop/disco she doesn’t really get a chance to flex her vocal ability. Her boppy dance music sells whereas the songs she can belt don’t. Fantastic performer!

[@poizen-ivy]

100% facts

[@Thisismeeeeee]

She does alot of these vocals on her songs however it's mostly background vocal. Such a waste

[@marissamaxwell4186]

Agreed. I love her regardless

[@joshfrederick5059]

Kylie is a chameleon and can do anything Pop, Rock, Opera, Country, Disco, Dance and Jazz

[@markphillips3186]

The original video for this song was brilliant. I stand to be corrected, in Australia, UK and Europe she is a superstar. Never understood why she never became as popular in the USA

[@scottward7850]

You are correct, a living legend in all those markets

[@malayaichannel]

She is a legend in Asia too

[@rushofblood994]

If you watch her interview with Michael Parkinson from 2002 (on youtube) she says near the beginning how it was a conscious choice not to focus on breaking America. It would take at least a year living in the States to gain traction and I think she was happier consolidating her success in the rest of the world. That being said, it's still a shame she didn't break the US.

[@kristidewar6296]

I absolutely love this song. “Breathe” off her Impossible Princess album is up there for me as well as the entire Fever album. First saw her live in 1992 and have loved her ever since 🥰

[@kristidewar6296]

@@helen6191 Slow is probably a more recent contemporary for me, I must admit I hve not listened to her latest album as much as I should have… I still have my cassettes and some cassingles from the 90s 🥰

[@erikhoekstra5845]

if you want to see her best its a song called wild rose with nick cave

[@QueenTaraShay]

THANK YOU FOR EVEN RECOGNIZING AND MENTIONING THE QUEEEEEN Kylie Minogue!!!!! She's so underrated in the US and deserves credit for some seriously interesting pop/dance/disco/folk music! Across FIVE DECADES!

[@admusik99]

Kylie is 🔥

[@MarkCassone]

If I recall correctly, "Confide In Me" was her first single released after leaving the Stock Aitken Waterman "hit factory". The sound and vocals are much more sophisticated than her previous releases. Check out the original single version you won't be disappointed.

[@kamoraavayuna7726]

My favorite live vocal performances Closer-les Folies Tour and the Crying Game medley- Fever Tour

[@popland1977]

Kylie is so underrated

[@raywright8226]

It's always so weird to hear people pondering whether they think Kylie can sing or not. I think everyone's ears have been deadened by the belter's, believing only belter's can sing. Go and take a listen to Billie Holiday or Blossom Dearie, and Kylie belongs in that bracket. A voice that is all her own, sweet & delicate in tone but that slides up and down notes with such flair. Kylie's one of best 💗

[@juliewillard6932]

Something different - Nick Cave’s “Murder Ballards” album, he has such a deep, unique voice and he did a duet with Kylie “Where The Wild Roses grow”, different and good. It is dark and innocent in one.

[@shaz464]

Kylie is our Aussie sweetheart. I’ve been to one of her concerts. She puts on one hell of a show. An excellent entertainer.

[@KitKat-wt6ed]

You would loooove Kylie live. Every songs she sings is like this, theatre, dancing - a full on performance. She is just sensational. She took me by surprise when I saw her live tour. Her music is great but her concerts are on another level. Having said that she has several clips that I love: Did it again, Step back in time, Better the devil you know (start here), Some kind of bliss, there are so many, this is a rabbit hole you will love.

[@Keibro]

The US needs to give Kylie more love. All the flowers! 😁 we adore Kylie in the UK and Ireland. This performance I believe to be one of her greatest

[@crittah74]

You should find a live version of her song Your Disco Needs You! It's a disco song that showcases her abilities nicely. America has unfairly slept on Kylie. Her catalogue is worth the deep dive. I've been lucky enough to see several of her shows in Europe. She is a fantastic performer and so charismatic on stage. You really feel the love at a Kylie show! Wish I didn't always have to travel to see her, but it was always worth it. Her Les Folies (Aphrodite Live) show is a masterpiece both visually and musically. Among my top 5 favorite concert experiences (and I have been going to them for quite some time).

[@JoSedunary]

Thanks for featuring Kylie again Dominic... If anything , Kylie's concerts are a show from start to finish... she is definitely an entertainer... I think sometimes people are a little surprised that in amongst all the theatre she can actually hold a note. We love her...

[@toughenup1]

Kylie never fails to deliver in her live concerts, pitch perfect and such a showgirl... I've followed her since the beginning of her singing career (now spanning 35yrs) and she has worked very hard on improving her vocal ability to the point where I'd say she is one of the best live performers in the business. Really enjoyed your reaction.

[@canalmilani]

Love Kylie, her concerts are incredible

[@Rosannasfriend]

I’m glad you’re doing this one because I’ve always said, and I told you in comments in her last video, that this is her best song vocally.

[@lukeaus]

One of my favourite songs by her.

[@dennisweberofficial]

Love this reaction. The genuine surprise when you discover that you underestimated her voice and admitting that she was better than you thought was amazing. Shows how professional and honest your opinion is by being open to have the own impression changed. 👍👍👍

[@wahine1278]

I have loved Kylie since I was a young girl. Please listen to more of her.

[@davidf5967]

Watch “Your Disco Needs You” live - she goes operatic at the end.

[@robertzoomer9886]

She sang in Tour of Duty with John Farnham and she was excellent and held her own. I always have liked Kylie.

[@paulstanley2825]

Even if someone is not a fan of Kylie's music or her vocal style they'd be lying to themselves if they say she can't sing live. She sings live and sings live extremely well. She also puts on a great show visually, what more could you really ask for. I've always had alot of respect for Kylie, she's proven herself very versatile in all styles of music over the years, her voice is so unique that it can work with pretty much any style of music. I would love for her to do a full on old school jazz style album someday, her voice works so well with that genre when I've heard hints of jazz in her music.

[@jgsheehan8810]

I second you having a look at her duet with Nick Cave “Where the Wild Roses Grow”. She doesn’t belt but it’s a really good song and the film clip is a dramatic performance

[@LuisPortelles]

OMG Nick! I am such a huge Kylie fan! Thank you for watching her videos. You should react to her "Your Disco Needs You" performance live from The Showgirl Tour

[@theKarstenR]

[@Miss-Katie]

Super vibey songs = Pop Princess 💖

[@MatthiasHamilton]

Kylie is a singer that started out with a peep squeak voice in the 80's but she worked on her voice and her craft and built it up to what it is today which is why I love and respect her so much

[@starlightshimmery]

Love this song

[@SearchingForSpirits]

Absolutely 💯 love Kylie, amazing live, floorless!

[@robertlloyd9472]

So Kylie's power is in her UPPER register. She's a real soprano however in pop music the lower to mid register is where the audience is happiest and hers is quite lovely but not where her KapOW hits. Still it's very beautiful live and she gives us one of these soprano knockouts peppered in. Listen to If You Don't Love Me from the Aphrodite Tour.

[@teresaclark3291]

Kylie was an Actress before becoming a world wide hit..

[@joelpaule2072]

In Australia she’s known as the singing budgie and is seen as a national treasure.

[@ArronC]

She has some amazing acapella clips too! Look up Can't Get You Out Of My Head at the GLAAD Awards. She sings the entire song acapella with no background singers ON TOP of the dinner tables! It's iconic.

[@rodrigochichierchio]

Seriously, this video was so so good. I think people underestimate her so much but seeing how much she understands her voice and is able to use it... That is really fantastic. Thanks for the video!

[@awwdabaaby]

If you want to see her throw unexpected notes out, I recommend Your Disco Needs You at the Royal Albert Hall, but for a real unexpected one, Too Far at Showgirl Homecoming in Sydney, too far is quite out there as it is as she was going down the indie route at the time, but there is a vocal in that performance that will blow your mind

[@kristidewar6296]

Too Far is such a great song!

[@Schiltzenberger]

Kylie has a lot of catchy songs.....I mean a lot.

[@iceberg5220]

[@BobarissGish]

You got the Kylie fever kicking in now.

[@ColinsCity]

I love Kylie but i have never seen this performance, this is an amazing version of the song and live performance

[@littleflick]

Kylie can SING! When she first released music she was a star of Neighbours (an Aussie soap opera) that was huge in the UK and Australia. Her first songs were very pop, and I think people didn’t realise how good she actually is. She is a HUGE gay icon, and fully embraced that and her gay fans. She performed at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in the 90’s and 00’s. She’s one of those stars where people don’t even use her last name and you know who they are talking about. Kylie Jenner tried to trademark “Kylie” and she wasn’t able to in Australia.

[@justlinsu]

Her concerts were always like a Broadway show. Each song was delivered with dancers, great staging and of course the one and only Kyle Minogue...She moved to England and was one of the United Kingdoms favourite performer. She was also a young actress here in Australia.

[@berranari1]

"In your Eyes" is my fave. 😀I remember Kylie saying "In Your Eyes" has a lot of fans. She has done so many great tracks over several decades now.

[@ColinsCity]

it is actually one of my favourite songs especially from Fever, there is something about that song, i remember hearing it on the radio a lot

[@Sarah-jy8cx]

Love this song.

[@timgood3181]

If you want to hear Kylie belt, check out Spinning Around from her Golden tour. She lets loose at the end of the song and it’s amazing. I honestly think she is the most underrated vocalist in pop music.

[@HelenBeeee]

Seriously Kylie deserves kudos for what she does she can sing there is no question but it is not her greatest strength For me its always the catchy vibe of her songs and her performance the woman can put on a show and I dont think there is enough value put to that part of the package of being a singer....if you dont have that part you wont last and she has proven to be master singer and performer if she was relying on just her vocals she wouldnt have the career she has had theres no denying the girl has a nose for a hit song. There are many singers that can only dream of having the success that Kylie has had....she has shown she is the full package.

[@kimmillington1309]

[@markjames3522]

Confide In Me was Kylie gaining more artistic freedom 1994 after ditching Stock Aitken Waterman British hit makers a few years before . Number 1 on charts in Australia. Kylie is Australia’s most successful Australian born artist selling over 80 million records worldwide , pretty great achievement for an artist that has only 2 American hit singles on billboard top 10 Locomotion in 1988 and Can’t Get You Out Of My Head in 2001 . Must listen Kylie songs * All The Lovers * Spinning Around *Slow * 2 Hearts * Your Disco Needs You ( live from the Royal Albert Hall ) * Stop Me From Falling * Say Something * Flower ( Emotional ballad written by Kylie a song to her unborn child apparently after finding out she maybe unable to be a mother after her breast cancer scare ) Where The Wild Roses Grow ( with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds ) Plus singing Shout with John Farnham live at Crown Casino or Tour Of Duty .

[@scottward7850]

Everything 👏you 👏say👏is 👏the 👏truth. Thank you for finally saying what I’ve been waiting for from so many reactors. She is the only musician I say to people “ when you weren’t looking “, she became this. Her nuance , never overdone, performance is so underrated. She won’t ever do the obvious, but when she does do what people class as “ good singing “, it always takes people by surprise. I guess “ your disco needs you “ is the obvious next choice but which version I don’t know . Whatever operative highlight is the best to react to, her head voice will make you realise what a good singer she is . And thank you for acknowledging her

[@jeanwilson717]

I LOVE Kylie. She has so many great tunes. Her song "Bittersweet Goodbye" has been said to have been written about her love, and loss, for Michael Hutchence. She pulls off an amazing concert.

[@anthonychapman5552]

This and Better the Devil you Know are her best songs

[@dee-smart]

Just a bit of trivia. Did you know that Kylie was once with the late Michael Hutchence? He left her for Helena Christensen. During their time, he wrote a song relating to her. SUICIDE BLONDE which was a packet name for a type of hair colour Kylie was using at the time.

[@justinm2697]

It wasn't the name a of a hair dye, It was the name she gave the blonde wig she wore at the premier of her film The Delinquents, which she attended with Michael.

[@rushofblood994]

Great reaction! I would recommend listening to her Abbey Road Sessions where she does orchestral/acoustic versions of her pop hits, outside of that there are fewer examples of great vocal performances only because she's somewhat restricted by the pop/disco genre. She actually has a very impressive 3 octave range which you can see in full on youtube. Can belt a B5 and head voice up to around E/F6 which is insane.

[@rodrigochichierchio]

LOVE THIS!

[@samanthaharrison4921]

She did get a bad wrap from the beginning in Australia, its seem to happen when artists go into music after being a TV soapy star beforehand. It happened with Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan, Natalie Imbruglia, Delta Goodrem, Tammin Sursok. Kylie is great and is a bit of a disco queen also, but is a performer all her concerts are a full performance with each song. Funny you say 'Best supporting actress' in a drama, she won the popular actress logie award in 1987 & 1988 and also won the gold logie in 1988 for her acting.

[@JoSedunary]

This ^^

[@resurgam75]

Her version of the jazz standard 'Try Your Wings' is just lovely. People say she doesn't have a strong belt but the notes she does at the end of Spinning Around on her Golden tour is pretty fire.

Kylie is a talented singer and actor. Her body frame is small. I noticed this when I came across a exhibition held at Southbank(Brisbane) displaying of some of the costumes worn by Kylie. It was like looking at clothing sizes for a young teenage girl. That said, a lot of very successful people were larger than life.

[@kerryeva]

Kylie was panned in Australia and called the ‘singing budgie’ which is an annoying bird chirp. She copped heaps of flack. And everyone joked how she couldn’t sing. Then she released ‘can’t get you out of my head’ number 1 for weeks. We all ate humble pie and put her back up on that pedi stool she deserved all along. The video to this song is AMAZING. You must check it out!!!

[@L-K-Jellyfish]

This song was the first of her pop songs that grabbed me. Back in the early days, her voice did not have this much power. She trained hard to get where she is and I totally respect that. I think it's probably why she gets the hate, because other singers who have obvious talent from the beginning rarely get the opportunities that she did. She was a very popular soap actress before singing. And frankly, because she's a hot Aussie girl she got amazing mentors in the form of her lover Micheal Hutchens of INXS and Nick Cave (don't know if they were ever lovers but they are certainly friends).

[@davejones6064]

WATCH Somewhere over the rainbow 🌈 Showgirl tour. Remember she is a pop girl at heart. Her vocals slay in her mid tempo/ballads songs. Her range sits well in any genre.

[@jspettifer]

By far my favourite Kylie song (excluding the Nick Cave duet). It also was played on Australia’s national alternative music channel and was voted as the 30th best song of the year. So glad when I accidentally saw her in concert that this was one of the songs she played (a work mate bought tickets for his gf and him but they weren’t good enough so had spares so my gf and I bought them on the night)
