I’d rather have some Dollar, Jermaine Stewart and Jane Weidlin.
I’d have preferred a NOW 11 blue myself (I think it was the best NOW cover) but I can live with this colour scheme….
I think Finer Feeling deserves the praise it gets but it’s sometimes over-egged just because it stalled at #11 unfairly (like Put Yourself In My Place an even bigger travesty) at a time when her popularity had slumped.
Even then.... Kylie actually resigned for a fourth album didn’t she? So its not like she was desperate to jump ship as soon as contractually able to. I wonder how things would have panned out if she had left after Rhythm Of Love?
