Kylie Gets 2011 Off To A Swingin' Start!

Filed under: Australiastic > Kylie Minogue

A perfect song to kick off the new year!

Miz Minogue performed her joyously infectious new hit, Better Than Today, on Jools Holland's New Year's special.

Check out the lovely big band version (above)!

I like her but when she sings live, she sounds like a cartoon character

Jools Hollands is THE BEST music show in the world where only the best get to perform. His New years eve show is the hottest ticket in London. Thank goodness mnufactured trash like Girls Aloud and all things X-factor are barred from this inner sanctum of good taste. Oh and Bravo Miz Minogue. Bravo.

what happened to her flow? everything is saleable in 2011. the year kicks off with a goods transfer between china and taiwan, china gives a ton of incense and taiwan tons of fruit, nations trading, trading nations - brings me back to an old hominum, to the internet we say to a stay up late party all night long industry, go home

Re: Mrs Cloudatlas –
Agree. Jools Holland's show has been for the last 20 years the best quality music show in the world.
Kylie Minogue though, hardly represent the type of artists this show boasts,
or the magical quality of the live performances of this show.
It's more notable the number of real music legends that have appeared over the years, legends who have never and will never show their face on any other TV program, have always made the exception to grace the stage in this show. And these are real legends, like old times Motown heavyweights, and huge artists that rarely appear anywhere anymore.
If you like quality music, not pop, do yourself a favour and watch this show weekly to discover new talents who are truly unique and amazing, instead of all the manufactured X-Factor/American Idol pop dross.

Re: Mrs Cloudatlas – It's a pretentious love-in. Don't get me wrong, I watch it, but I record it and skip the celebrity love-in. It's just Jools Holland being his usual pricky self sucking up to a load of unfunny celebrities.

THAT WAS LAME ASS AND CERTAINLY NOT BIG BAND AT ALL. SAME ELECTRO POP SHIT WITH A FEW PEEPS IN THE HORN SECTION AND PIANO DOES NTO A BIG BAND SOUND MAKE. #EPIC FAIL. HER VOICE IS SOOO ANNOYING AND EVEN MORE ANNOYING IS HER TENDENCY TO ACT LIKE A SEX KITTEN EXCEPT SHE'S OVER 60. THE CLOSE UP SHOTS SHOW THE WRINKLES, PLASTICS, AND VARICOSE VEINS. EEEEW!!

Ah she's had a nice career….Time to give it a BREAK! Glad she's healthy again but this one trick pony has never had anything to close to average voice and Girlfriend isn't 24 any longer……

God I love her amazing. Re: Michael Coy – She was 18 when she first started and she is still filling in seats at her concerts why should she stop just because shes in her 40's? when your great your great and kylie is great. If you say that about her then the same should go for The Rolling Stones and Rod Stewert. Re: uyeah – Just wanted to let you know Ive been a proud american fan of kylie for 12 years now her sold out tour here prove there are fans for her here i the states. By the way her album went number 19 in june 2010.
