Yes, it will be interesting to see what Kylie ends up doing for the US tour. I remember hearing “I Should Be So Lucky” at the end of the movie “Cookie” and really liking it. After the first album of course she basically vanished from the US scene. I do recall though in the early 90’s seeing some kind of MTV UK news snippet on Kylie regarding her new sexy image. I guess it was around the “Let’s Get To It” era. Then in the mid to late 90’s, my friend and I were in a record store in Baltimore, MD (one that used to carry many imports) and we saw the Kylie “Greatest Hits” LP. We looked at it and chuckled, GREATEST HITS? What greatest hits? Little did we know just how popular she was. Then I was re-introduced to her when I received an email from the Paula Abdul fan mailing list that she had co-written a song for Kylie, which was “Spinning Around.” Being a major Paula fan too, of course I was interested in hearing it. When I got the import CD single I loved the song. I then got the On A Night Like This CD single and loved that too. However I didn’t get “Light Years” until the summer of 2001. This was when I was in NY for Stevie’s show at Jones Beach (I also met Mariah Carey this day). I got home and couldn’t stop listening to Light Years. Then I was surprised to learn that “Fever” was soon coming out. LY was still so new to me.

Anyway, that’s my little Kylie story of how I got into her.
