Padam who? A definitive ranking of Kylie Minogue’s 10 best lead singles
“Padam Padam” by Kylie Minogue. Never mind that the solstice is still weeks away. When Mother Minogue calls, you answer. The infectious track is drowned in synths and sex appeal with an a**-shaking beat to get your heart racing, which is fitting considering its title refers to the pound of a heartbeat.
Within hours, fans were already creating memes honoring the song’s addictive refrain and celebrating the Australian pop queen’s upcoming sixteenth album Tension.
In a tweet, she called the record “a blend of personal reflection, club abandon and melancholic highs,” and we’re counting down the days until it drops on September 22.But as any self-respecting Kylie fan knows, the 54-year-old diva does not play when it comes to her lead singles.
With an expansive discography dating back to her soap opera days in 1988, Minogue has made a point to put her best high-heeled toe forward with every era.While not everyone pays the multi-talented songstress the respect she deserves, there’s a reason why Minogue remains the highest-selling Australian solo artist of all time.
