Huge congrats to Kylie, her label, and wider team. Collectively, they have defined the blueprint of how to market, manoeuver, and establish momentum as a seasoned act in today’s climate. Indeed, instead of fighting the uphill battle that streaming is for most legends, they embraced the power physical formats hold with loyal audiences like Kylie’s.
So many acts, both home and away, ought to take notes.
In any case, congrats again to this bonafide star who continues to shine.

Such a good pop album. Disco and Dua Lipa’s album are the best pop albums of 2020.
Five decades of #1 albums! Literally, a timeless legend. Congrats Kylie! 😀
well done kylie!!! you really deserved this number 1. 😀
I am so over the moon and hardly believe it!! So happy!! And congrats to the legend KYLIE with an amazing first week sale of 55 000 copies!!!!!!!
I love the album. I hope she has solid numbers on billboard too. Kylie deserves her flowers in the US. IDK why she’s so overlooked here
I guess because we have Madonna here already.
On US TOP album chart she is debuting within the top 5
But after the streams included she will debut in top 20 her highest since Aphrodite
Aphrodite was such a gem. “Get Outta My Way” is one of my favorite songs of ALL time…and the video still gives me chills. Fun fact, that song was actually written for Britney Jean Spears!
Agree
And also Toxic supposed to be for Kylie Minogue
She deserves to be huge like madonna is in the US
Too bad Americans dont have taste.
Stream time bomb, all the lovers, get out of my way, I was gonna cancel, flower,
Forgot to include in your arms.
I forgot into the blue
What a bop
I love the video also
Wow I’m glad you like the Time Bomb
It’s a cool single
Can’t Get You Out of My Head is her signature hit globally
Stop Me I’m Fallin, in My Arms, Wow, Like A Drug, Time Bomb, Skirt, CGYOOMH, All The Lovers, Come Into My World, Locomotion, Never Too Late, Breath, I should be so lucky, especially for you
I’m glad u mentioned skirt, not many fans know this hidden gem. Step back in time,better the devil u know, what kind a fool, slow, Disco down, light years, you disco needs you, the one, get out my way, speakerphone, confide in me, lifetime to repair, lost without you… all are bops!!!!
@marilyn thanks
I also love the singles that you mentioned😍😍😍
Into the blue is a good music video and single
Her ex boyfriend was there
Not kylie minogue beating little mix
Maybe it’s time for them to drop that bubble gum sound and mature musically
Sweet melody is a bop
I was pleasantly surprised about how good that song was
I have always liked Kylie’s music since Specially For You with Jason Donovan, and you don’t hear too much of her Stateside, this is a great album
Congratulations, she deserves it !
ICON LEGEND QUEEN❤️
Yes she is a legend an icon
A true magic and precious gem
