Kylie Minogue
State of Being : Wow Wow Wow!!!
Kylie Minogue's very first concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Tuesday was truly awesome. Belting out hits after hits like "Better The Devil You Know", "Can't Get You Out Of My Head, "Spinning Around" & "Step Back In Time" from her total ten albums recorded over the past twenty years, she was simply the Aussie Princess of Pop and had the audience dancing and singing along to her songs the entire night!
As expected from live concerts, most artists would usually choose to perform their previous hits in a totally new arrangement. I was especially impressed by her stripped down version of "I Believe In You". Originally an upbeat disco single, Kylie's acoustic rendition of the single was equally mesmerising. Noted with the only exception of "I Believe In You", all her other songs performed that night generally were mid to fast tempo. This I reckon is understandable since dance-pop is her forte afterall.
Overall, Kylie certainly did not disappoint the Singapore audience for her X2008 concert. Performing for full two hours, inclusive of encore, it was really value-for-money. Judging by the hysterical screams of the audience towards the end, when Kylie performed her signature tune "I Should Be So Lucky", I dare say that the concert definitely ended on a high note!!
Alas, my only complaint of the concert would be the pared down stage backdrop for her concert here. Apparently, according to online forums, she had more elaborate setup for her European leg of the tour and even came out on a hoola hoop in the opening act. Also, her Manga inspired costume and performance of the song "Nu-di-ty" was evidently missing in the Singapore concert! And that's a real bummer!
