A DVD I purchased recently and HAVE to mention: Kylie Minogue's "Showgirl - The Greatest Hits Tour"...!
It is possibly the best concert I've ever seen... the performances, choreography and "showmanship" are simply mindblowing!
(Definitely the best I've seen at least since Michael Jackson's 1991 "Dangerous" tour...)
She went all-out with this one - and it's often more of a show than a concert. She sings live all the way through, and almost each song is accompanied by some of the most elaborate costumes and dancing, and the stage decor is amazing (this set must have cost a fortune!)
And it's SEXY!
Highlights include the mini-musical with songs In Denial (featuring Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant on vocals - even though he wasn't physically there), Je Ne Sais Pas Pourquoi and Confide In Me (BRILLIANT orchestral accompaniment on the latter, and Kylie does the most amazing dance routine with one of her dancers which takes your breath away!)
Move over to the 'shower scene' - guys literally having a shower on the stage - and into the HOT performance of Red Blooded Woman (possibly one of the BEST modern pop songs of our time?) - again the choreography and movements need to be seen to be believed! (You sit there thinking: wow - am I really seeing this?!)
Plenty of highlights follow, like the sexy Slow and the latin-dance extravaganza of Please Stay.
I also LOVED the energy-charged Your Disco Needs You - the German and Australian single and Blue-Box #1... delicious!
One of the biggest surprises has to be the jazz rendition of The Loco-Motion... yes, that's right - and absolutely mindblowingly done!
Furthermore the quality of sound and image on this DVD is first class. I can't stress it enough - this is an AMAZING concert, and Kylie has proven with it she's one of the best entertainers in the world!
