Quotes
I walk into the studio
and we're all so happy to see each other.
Part
of me is a sexual exhibitionist.
You
know, songs often have a very coloured past. They might have something
about them but it still doesn't work, so someone else adds a bit, and
someone else adds a bit so perhaps one day I'll know its full history.
I never say never about a lot of things.
Whatever you want, then more power to you. If someone feels they have to
live up to a certain image, then I can kind of understand that pressure
because I'm considered to be one of those images, and I know how unreal
they are.
People see me as Kylie the singer. It would
be a dream for me to be taken seriously as an actress.
I don't have to try to be a sex bomb, I am
one!
I'm totally shattered. Everything has been
so crazy. I've been trying to get my act together, but I am so exhausted
I can barely string a sentence together. Making this album has really
taken its toll. (on recording the Fever album).
When I was eight, my pals and I went up to
my bedroom, put on our party frocks and mimed to ABBA records using
broom handles as microphones.
I especially enjoy the period with
'Shocked', 'What Do I Have To Do' and 'Better The Devil You Know', so
maybe something from there. (when asked what earlier hits she would
re-release if given the oppurtunity)
That's always a difficult question. Still
being here!!! The point of my job is to entertain and make it look easy,
so I guess it's the parts you don't often see which make me feel proud.
All the behind the scenes work, the fears and insecurities I have to
face and overcome to improve myself as a person and performer, all of
the people who believe in me and encourage me. As you can see the list
starts to go on and on. My sense of achievement is a study in motion and
there's much I wish to accomplish in the future, professional and
personal. (on her biggest achievement; 2004)
Since my first hit, I can't believe how
quickly time has passed. This collection is very dear to me and holds a
lifetime of memories. There is nothing like time to give you a sense of
perspective and I hope the listener gets as much enjoyment out of these
tracks as I do. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to experiment
throughout the years and that my fans have embraced the need in me to
try new approaches. I am just as excited about the new tracks featured
here as I am about all the others on the record. At this point in my
career, I am happy to celebrate the past and look forward to the future.
(on her 2004 greatest hits compilation Ultimate Kylie)
I nearly killed myself in rehearsals, but
the outcome is classy, I hope. It's a lot different from any other
videos I've done before. I really wanted to do some ballet in my next
video and luckily I've been able to. I normally have three or four hours
to practise the choreography for my clips, but this time I had four days
to get it right. (on her music video Chocolate)
I'm so happy that my costumes have found a
home here in Melbourne, my home town, where I know they will be cared
for and preserved. Its just such an honour that the Performing Arts
Collection wanted it all. What I imagine people will want to see is the
wear and tear, the ingrained make-up after fifty shows, where the
audio-pack rubs these are things that for me, bring costumes to life.
