She's by far the best pop artist for years. I've seen her many times, including this tour, but my favourite was the Royal Albert Hall Christmas show, that was something else
Definitely a favourite song off her tenth album X. I’ve read that the skull represents her recovery from breast cancer. Her costume for this song and this tour were designed by Jean Paul Gaultier who did the famous cone bra for Madonna. The X album is full of synths and electro-pop like in Like A Drug, In My Arms and Wow with some ballads in between called No More Rain and Cosmic. Also, your mention of Madonna springs to mind that she was a fan of Kylie’s song Speakerphone which is from the X album.
I read that this section was an ode to her defeating cancer. Presented so beautifully. This was the early days of LED and they really made use of the technology really well. I absolutely love the echo effects on the vocals and wish the album version had it as well.
I was on that tour, I actually liked the SHOWGIRL tour muuuuch better, was so much more streamlined for me. This song here was however a huge thing and the high point for me on this tour :)... I would however say, that Kylie tours in no way comes close to Mylene Farmers tours, soooooo much more detail, so much more stage,design, sooo much more effects :)...
Your reaction is so animated. Love to see you dance to this at a gig or club. It's one of best performances, visually & musically. The original sample is from the great Visage, We Fade to Grey.
I´m so so sooo grateful to have watched this live, epic performances of Slow and especially Come Into My World, absolutely stellar!! X-tour for me is definitely second right after Aphrodite Les Folies! Like Like a Drug and Closer are just insane visual and musical, it gets you n that high you expect from trippin'. Already going nuts to see her on the Tension Tour!!!
Kylie's X2008 tour is really awesome! I love it its dance and songs! I saw it in Hong Kong but without those big props, just songs and dances, simpler set up. So I only watched its full version in DVD later.
The song was by the way a huuuuuuge shoutout and homage to VISAGEs FADE TO GREY, just like PET SHOP BOYS did a few years later with their fabolous FLOURESCENT. For me as a big fan of FADE TO GREY I celebrate each of these great homages by both Kylie and the Pet Shop Boys :)
Love this track as is awesome. Checkout some of her other tracks like Butterfly, confide in me, Cupid boy. Also love from fever tour, cover of Boy George crying game as is amazing.
Interested that you said she has a Street Fighter vibe with the look because …. She actually is in the 1994 motion picture Street Fighter together with Van Dame and Raul Julia … she plays Cammy
it's interesting you mentioned Madonna as a comparison, it's not a secret (and in fact Kylie mentioned it multiple times), that Kylie based her career a lot on Madonna...
X 2008 is was a masterpiece.
Kylie tours are incomparable
You need to feel what she brings and feel her fans respond inperson.
♥️
The stage for that show was fantastic. Definitely one of Kylie's best tours (along with the legendary Aphrodite: Les Folies).
1. LIKE A DRUG & SPEAKERPHONE should've been released as singles
2. Can you imagine what THIS sounded like in those ARENA SPEAKERS ❤
She's by far the best pop artist for years.

Kylie is the QUEEN 👑💯 🙏

Visage - fade to grey 2.0
I was there ! It was mindblowing !!! Visuals and Vocals where out of this world ❤❤❤
Favorite part of the X Tour! Then after this performance she does "Slow"... and omfg it's sooo gooood!! It always knocks me on my gootch!!
I saw Kylie’ X at London’s O2 ‘like a drug’ and ‘heart beat rock’ were the best performances for me. ❤
Went three times to the X Tour in London. Kylie absolutely rocked the venue.
ICONICA presentación y como siempre un gran tour muy innovador

She puts on the best shows
I never understood why she didn’t release this as a single at the time. It could have been the lead track.
Kylie has always managed to be incredibly sexy whilst still remaining classy 👌🏽
Kylie is an amazing showgirl!! She’s so good live. I remember this tour when she came to Chicago.
In 2008, I watched her tour in Beijing, China, she is really a queen, I love kylie!❤❤🎉
Best tour ever! Love the reaction

Im with you- my number 1 kylie song.
Listen please stay live- you’ll love it.
Funny you should mention ”Street Fighter” since Kylie actually is in the 1994 film 😂
Let’s not forget that Kylie played Cammy in Street Fighter the film 🎥
It took time but you finally realise just what an amazing icon kylie is.
Your reaction is so animated. Love to see you dance to this at a gig or club. It's one of best performances, visually & musically. The original sample is from the great Visage, We Fade to Grey.
Kylie is a absolute GODDESS ❤
You should review more of this tour - it's incredible.

I was there yeàrs ago. Headoff. Im still shivering exciting about the show.👍
I love seeing your excited reactions, topless would be even better! lol
Derek: Kylie looks like Mr.Bison
Me: Once upon a time, she was Cammy fighting Mr.Bison
🤣
We still can't beleive this song was not a single.
I was sat about 20 feet in front of her when she did this, unforgettable night!
Heart beat rock from this same concert is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What?? A new album of Kylie? Looks great , thank you!
Saw this live in Melbourne, Australia. Amazing concert! You should also review “Come into my World” from this concert. Blew me away!!
Love this song and every time I hear it the chorus reminds me of Respectable by Mel& Kim ❤️❤️❤️
The #XTour2008 is amazing 🤩
The X tour is my absolute favourite Kylie tour and the best music tour I've ever seen period. It's as punchy today as it was back then.
incomparable
Stunning act … lov song ❤
Haven't heard this song in ages.The synths remind me of Fade To Grey by Visage 😎
It is basically a homage to FADE TO GREY, just like FLOURESCENT by the PET SHOP BOYS a few years later :)
You should watch whole KYLIEX2008 tour and you will see how she amazing done on the tour
I was there. She was phenomenal...Great graphics & staging :)
Kylie's X2008 tour is really awesome! I love it its dance and songs! I saw it in Hong Kong but without those big props, just songs and dances, simpler set up. So I only watched its full version in DVD later.
I love it

hey derek she play Cammy in Street Fighter with Jean Claude Van Dam in 1994
Like A Drug should’ve def been a single if not a B-Side. Would’ve done great on the dance charts.
Sampling Fade to Grey! Incredible track and great performance 💕
X Tour was incredible. I remember seeing the floor in the Body Rock portion. Cutting edge.
Love this track as is awesome.
Checkout some of her other tracks like Butterfly, confide in me, Cupid boy.
Also love from fever tour, cover of Boy George crying game as is amazing.
Fantastic reaction video 👍
Essa tour é bafonica 💥
i been to that x tour in 2008 in sydney Australia it was amazing
One of my fave Kylie performances!
Epic !💯
Kylie ❤
Heard her in a doco say the skulls name was Nora. She also used it as the opening entrance to the 2009 for you for me tour in the US
Interested that you said she has a Street Fighter vibe with the look because …. She actually is in the 1994 motion picture Street Fighter together with Van Dame and Raul Julia … she plays Cammy
This is how she opened her North American tour when I saw her in San Francisco! ❤
Also react to I belive in you of her showgirl homecoming tour. That's when I fell in love or her.
😍😍😍
X tour is amazing .... I also think she looks like bison... Actually she did street fighters movie as Cammy
X tour is by far her most elaborated and aesthetical show. You should react to sensitized and nudity act
Like A Drug would have made for a more satisfying single then Wow or In My Arms and would have been a far worthier follow-up to 2 Hearts.
Crazy you bring up street fighter becuz she played Cammy in 1994s street fight with Jean cloud van damme
You should watch this tour in slow
Endlich!
🇧🇷
Hi derek can you put the subtitle?
it's interesting you mentioned Madonna as a comparison, it's not a secret (and in fact Kylie mentioned it multiple times), that Kylie based her career a lot on Madonna...
Bart Simpson on tour
What a silly comment bundy, your pretty gross huh? Yuck! Kylie's the QUEEN 👑💯
If you can't say anything nice, don't bother
Made you feel good, did it? To say that about someone who had been recovering from cancer at the time? Disgusting.
