    disco So where will the live album debut ?

    Surely it has a good crack at #1 ? Sales for Take That last week were under 30k and releasing a live album DURING the tour is surely a first (or at least a rarity) that will boost sales. Plus the "We love Kylie" factor and universal good reviews (plus the free advertising Channel 4's constant trailers are giving it)


    Am I being stupidly optimistic ?

    It's #20 on CDWow

    I can;t tell you where it is on Amazon as my work filter blocks the page as it contains the word "Showgirl"

    I think you're being optimistic I'm afraid.

    That said, it is currently No.6 on the Amazon charts and still No.1 on their pre-release.

    You have to remember that it is #6 on Amazon and most LOONS will buy in the shops...

    #1 might be optimistic but I still reckon it will do VERY VERY WELL

    I mean, how many people is she playing to ?

    Well, 200k- if you imagine that most people go in couples, that is 100k couples. (They obviously DON'T but that is therefore a conservative estimate)

    A third of those buying the cd would give it a good shot at #1, without even the loons who couldn't get there, the general record buying public, those who see the adverts for the Channel 4 show etc etc...

    It might be optimistic but its not TOTALLY out of the question if you ask me...

    I'm going down to Woolies to buy it in a bit, along with some Strepsils (I'm STILL ill), they make up their own chart, so I wonder where they will have placed it.

    I reckon top 5 in the real chart though

    Though they have it at #27 or something...

    I think top 20 at best. I'd love to be proven wrong though!

    I bought my copy from Woolworths this morning, they're selling it for £8.97 and had it on display at the front of the store.

    I've just downloaded it. I was going to just add it to my next amazon order, but if Woolies are selling it that cheap, I'll pick it up later this week, as there's nothing else I want on amazon at the moment to make up the total for free P&P.

    Just got it from Woolies. They had it at number 5 (their music buyer is a homo though, so that explains it) and £8.97 as well. Fantabulous.

    There's a few edits on the songs I hadn't noticed before

    "What Do I Have To Do" is reduced to part of the medley now rather than a whole song
    "Chocolate" appears to have lost a verse on first listen

    Is this just for the cd or for the actual show too ?

    It doesn't make too much of a difference, but just a thought...

    OK I caved in

    I'm listening as we speak

    In terms of MUSICAL ARRANGEMENT at at least, the Temple segment is absolutely stunning! I love the subtle rework the "Confide in Me" strings have got and I love her beatbox thing with "Too Far". In general though the segment is beautifully arranged..

    I wonder if "White Diamond" will chart (albeit it only in the top 200 or something Id have thought...) once it gets on iTunes- surely there will be a fair few who want to get their hands on it...

    HMMM

    Does anyone have mp3s of the original Showgirl concert ? I never bothered getting them and frankly though I have the DVD, I'd quite like some iPod action now...

    Look, if I listen to MADGE albums when they leak prior to release, SHORELY I'm not going to make an exception for Kylie.

    Sorry boys I'm just weak that way.

    Nope it's for the actual show. I think I mentioned it in my review. I'm not entirely sure why they bothered cutting "What Do I have To Do" because the rest of the segment is exactly the same. I guess they thought two verses didn't work.

    Sorry but why does everyone seem to hate "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"? It's gorge and she sounds lovely.. plus it's all the more poignant NOW considering what she went through and all..
