Kylie Minogue

Speaking of mixes, what version of “The Real Thing” is this?


I only just realized it’s longer and different to the one on the soundtrack:


Discogs has the times ranging from 3:18-3:22 so I assume they’re closer to the latter as the former’s upload uses up its entire runtime.

The longer version appeared on the credits of Sample People at the end (and is what leaked at the time, I think). When the soundtrack was released, it was the edited version, which is the only one that has appeared on CD.

Thank you!

Huh, I guess I don’t need to hunt down the CDs then because the credits mix is my preferred choice.
 
The single cover imagery - one of her best. D
Yeah that whole Rankin shoot is one of her best and obviously, the super iconic KM94 cover. Kylie trades so much in hyperfemininity and coquettishness so to see something that was so androgynous and sexually forward was revelatory. Probably still my favorite Kylie image. I wish she played more with her image like that but she prefers to play it safe.
