00:23Carly Minogue has been showing off the new man.
00:26In excess lead singer Michael Hutchence, the couple at last going public with their romance.
00:33There was concern from my team, they thought uh oh, uh oh.
00:42She's too cute and good for him and he's too bad and hot for her.
00:48Yeah well I think people are going to be a bit shocked.
00:54Carly Minogue has come out and said that she has never used hard drugs.
00:59Do you ever try and tempt her to do anything harder?
01:03What were the nights out like?
01:06It was fun.
01:08What do I have to do to get the message through?
01:14No, she can do what she wants, I've never told anybody to do anything, she's on a real
01:18high herself, she doesn't need anything.
01:21How much fun?
01:23It's a lot of fun.
01:24Fun.
01:28According to some newspapers, I read you've discovered sex.
01:32Would you like me to comment further on that?
01:34Yes I would.
01:34Yes I would.
01:35Um, well, no I can't, sorry.
01:38What are you trying to get to?
01:41How devilish was I?
01:47What do I have to do to get the message through?
01:53Let's get your sister out of the way very quickly.
01:55Is she in love?
01:56She was this sexy rock god that men and women just went, ugh.
02:04She just oozed confidence and confidence is sexy.
02:12In her world back then, confidence was just everything.
02:16How can I do that I really love you, love you, love you, love you, love you.
02:20But I remember, it was just like she'd fallen head over heels, that's for sure.
02:39I'm gonna love you.
02:42Yeah.
02:43Okay, it's okay.
02:44We are now on the Orient Express on June 26th.
02:49This is an American couple filming this young Australian couple who are here to have a great
02:55time.
02:55Come on.
02:56You're on the air.
02:58Yes, he was this wild guy.
03:02But his intention was good, even if we weren't being so good.
03:07Everything was done with a lot of love.
03:12They've drunk all the champagne.
03:14Oh my God.
03:15Cut.
03:16Cut.
03:17Cut.
03:18I had so many firsts with him.
03:21Hi.
03:23Hi.
03:23I never felt like I had blinkers on, but he took them off.
03:38I was at the perfect age.
03:40I was 21 years old.
03:47That's nice.
03:57That's nice.
04:00He was hilarious.
04:07And cultured.
04:09And tender.
04:14I love seeing the ones that are, that's not the shot, the moments around the shot.
04:26I just felt like I had my person there.
04:31I really did.
04:33Movie star.
04:35Movie star.
04:37Movie star in Italy.
04:37In Italy.
04:38You can see in any pictures from then as well.
04:46Maybe life wasn't going so fast for a second.
04:50Because I remember all of it.
04:53Like being on that boat in Hong Kong with that feeling of promise.
05:01I felt like a jewel.
05:03If you dropped it, it would smash.
05:05But if you protected it, it could shine.
05:16Are you going to marry him?
05:18It would be nice to be proposed to, but I don't know.
05:21We'll have to see.
05:32At the time I got in to see NXS recording in the studio.
05:38And I loved it.
05:42I loved being in amongst that.
05:45I felt like I'd discovered a tribe.
05:49Thought it was amazing to see them write songs together.
05:52And have ownership over the end result.
05:56You know, we're pretty much equal.
05:58We tend to discuss things.
06:00I'll say, I think this.
06:01And if they all go, oh yeah, we agree with that, then we'll go into songs.
06:06It must be that way.
06:08You have to be true yourself.
06:11Then it was like a light bulb.
06:18I wanted to express myself more.
06:21And I just hadn't had that before.
06:31I knew this was the turning point.
06:36She had a rock star boyfriend.
06:39Michael gave her the confidence to be confident.
06:43Whatever I did, I knew she wasn't going to like.
06:46Remember the old days.
06:50Remember the old days.
06:51Snare drumming.
06:54Bit of guitar.
06:57Bit more guitar.
06:59Here's a hi-hat.
07:02I'd started making noise.
07:06I've got an idea.
07:07I mean, what about this and what about that?
07:09We had not time to discuss anything.
07:11Because we're, you know, we didn't have the time.
07:16I became really frustrated.
07:18It felt like fighting against the system.
07:22I know I've had 15 number ones.
07:25I know we've had 142 top 20s.
07:29I mean, I've lost count.
07:30I wanted to explore different ideas, be open to change.
07:36That's not what the public want.
07:37That's not what the public want.
07:38The public want I should be so lucky.
07:42Oh, well, um, I'm just tired of playing it so safe.
07:49And I should be allowed to speak.
07:51I should be allowed to have some input.
07:54Just to be able to have something to do with my work, you know.
07:59Not just be the face for it.
08:00Me.
08:02Me.
08:04Me.
08:05Me.
08:06Me.
08:07Me.
08:07It's like someone was strangling any creativity that I had.
08:14And by being forced to be quiet, shut up and listen, I learnt a lot that way.
08:23And so things don't change.
08:27I won't be here anymore.
08:33Unless I could have things my way.
08:38Listen, I have two daughters.
08:41And at some point, the old man don't know as much as they do.
08:48That's called growing up.
08:51I didn't used to be able to say no.
08:54You do now.
08:55I certainly do now.
08:57Yeah, I do.
09:05I was reclaiming my sense of self.
09:13And that's when I discovered that there were many more Kylie's out there.
09:30I think my manager had said, there's a Kylie Knight, and I'd never heard of a Kylie Knight.
09:39I'm like, what?
09:47I'm like, what?
09:51There's drag performers dressed as you.
09:54Do you want to go?
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:57It was like.
09:58Do you want to go?
10:01Yeah.
10:01It was like, wow.
10:04Woo!
10:05In my色ight sweater.
10:09Like supersonic versions of me.
10:17And this was a time when it was in to really not like me.
10:26And I ended up on stage at this drag bar.
10:30And I felt like the least Kylie there.
10:33Yeah, I thought I'd go step it up.
10:35I gotta get some lashes on and some eyeliner or something.
10:43Pete Waterman had been badgered sufficiently to go, alright kid, what do you want?
10:49What kind of music do you want to make?
10:50And I think that might be the first time he really asked me that.
10:54I just had had enough.
10:58She was going to clubs.
11:01She's now part of that whole club scene.
11:06If you're in that, you're going to want your records to sound like that.
11:14Why do you think it suits people to portray you as some kind of bimbo?
11:18Because it's easy and then I'm not a threat to them.
11:21There's something pretty remarkable about young Kylie Minogue.
11:26Gossip columnists write her off as the singing budgie.
11:30Well, the budgie's feathers are ruffled.
11:32Monday 29 jam, 10.30 sharp.
11:36I remember that gig.
11:42We caught ourselves singing budgies.
11:46I remember what I was wearing.
11:48My amazing shiny tights that I was obsessed with.
11:54I remember Michael being smacked bang in the middle of the crowd.
11:59Kylie's got this real sweet, innocent image.
12:03Kylie's really not the person that people think she is.
12:06There's a lot of strength.
12:08Singing budgie, you know, it's a horrible title.
12:11Whoever wrote that is probably fat and bald and 50 years old, but they look 70 and they've
12:16got bad breath and can't control themselves.
12:20And they're probably jealous.
12:25We've gone from I should be so lucky to Kylie the diva in one foul swoop.
12:33She wanted to see the video makers.
12:36She wanted her own stylists.
12:38The guys that we've worked with here for years, she just went, I'm not working with those guys
12:42anymore.
12:43Whether it's stylists or photographers or whoever, I'm working with them rather than just being
12:51force fed their ideas.
12:56I was running from the 80s.
12:59The sheen of it, the era of it, the puppeteering or the having no substance.
13:07And as soon as I had my image in my little grasp, by God, I turned into a lunatic.
13:15And falling free, I can't believe that you are really mine because I'm shocked by the power.
13:23Oh, oh, I'm shocked by the power.
13:26Those two bars that we heard there, the first time anybody's heard your new single in this
13:31country.
13:31And a videotaped together with you.
13:32Well, yeah, that's being sent over tomorrow actually and it's quite different.
13:37Oh, my God, oh, my God, this is it, this is the moment, oh, holy Mary, mother of God.
13:48I guess I was taking the power back.
13:57Yeah, just saying, all right, let's go.
14:04OK, one report, please.
14:06Oh, my God, the press are going to ban it.
14:08I think it's going to be bad.
14:09I know it's going to be bad.
14:11Yeah.
14:12Mum?
14:13What's your dad going to say?
14:17It's going to be bad.
14:18It's going to be bad.
14:25Carly Minogue, the squeaky clean next door neighbour, kicks off her tour tonight.
14:30She'll be putting her new look and new sound through their paces.
14:34There we go, there we go.
14:36Right, right, right.
14:40What can the fans expect?
14:42It's lots of fun, it's just an hour and a half of letting go and just enjoying themselves.
14:48The papers in England have been saying your show's raunchier this time.
14:51Is that right?
14:52Well, they've gone a little extreme.
14:55It's not an X-rated show or anything.
14:58Is that what I was wearing?
15:00Like, really raunchy outfits?
15:09She couldn't have picked a worse thing to do.
15:13Kylie arrived by coach in Dublin after a four-hour journey from Belfast.
15:19It's great to finally be here.
15:21There's a lot of talk about their changing image for Kylie Minogue.
15:24Yeah, I saw that in the paper today.
15:27Nice hair to Yvonne.
15:29Yeah.
15:35So what can people expect when they come to see you?
15:44Well, lots of choreography.
15:46Fabulous costumes.
15:48My outfits have been designed by John Galliano.
15:51After checking her out, seeing how she danced, how she moved, getting to know her personality,
15:56I went away and did some drawings.
15:59So her first outfit was very inspired by Lolita.
16:06And it's worn over a frilly bra and a bodyslip with built-in knickers.
16:14And everybody's going, no, no, no, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:20This is Kylie's wish.
16:21Ready?
16:22Five, six, seven, eight.
16:25This is what she wants to do.
16:28Hi.
16:29Hi.
16:30Hi.
16:31Hi.
16:31Three.
16:32Are you on a bomb?
16:32That's it.
16:33Gills.
16:33Wiggly.
16:34Wiggly.
16:34She's got to find out for herself.
16:38I don't want people to know what to expect, Ashley.
16:40I want them to come with an open mind.
17:01Yeah, we went a bit far.
17:03I'm not going to lie.
17:04We went a bit far.
17:12I mean, maybe it was good in real, but it didn't look good in a freeze frame.
17:21I'm going to defend it with that.
17:28Does that help?
17:30I think it does help.
17:36But I know what you're going to cut to.
17:41Now, our next guest shocked her young fans by strutting across the stage in some of this
17:46ghetto.
17:46I don't have to describe it too much.
17:48Kylie, good morning.
17:49Hi, how are you?
17:50I'm very well.
17:50How do you react?
17:52I mean, did you read all the criticism or did you throw most of it away?
17:55I saw some of it.
18:01They say that you look a bit like Madonna now or you're trying to model yourself on Madonna.
18:05Well, when we're saying they, we're talking about the tabloid press.
18:08That was tricky to defend those decisions.
18:19With your new tour on it, there is such controversy.
18:23Yeah, I'm a bit surprised.
18:29She kind of went too far prancing around the Dublin stage in lingerie.
18:33She went from the girl next door to the girl next door who's been around the flop.
18:39It's much raunchier than it was.
18:40Yes.
18:41I mean, I don't really like to call myself raunchy.
18:44We've just seen your raunchy new video.
18:47That new raunchy image.
18:48It's certainly fairly raw, isn't it?
18:51Raw?
18:52Well, raw as in raunchy, I mean.
18:56There was a time when you thought you said you were raunchier than your sister.
19:00She's changed the image, hasn't she?
19:02Yeah, she has lately.
19:03I remember thinking, this is so boring, repetitive, stupid.
19:15To hear that Kylie Minogue is too sexy is a bit like hearing that Mary Poppins has turned
19:20into a hooker.
19:23I mean, imagine you just show up to work every day and you just, what?
19:30There's even been speculation in Australia that you've had a boob job.
19:35Oh dear.
19:37One magazine even went as far as showing before and after shots.
19:44It's exhausting.
19:49And then as a female pop artist, if you say something, you're a bitch, you've got an
19:55ego, you're a diva.
19:58Any motor accompanying?
20:00No, well, you know, if you're going to interview me having researched tabloid newspapers, there's
20:07no point talking to me because I didn't see loads of mothers storming out with their children.
20:11And if you're a guy and you say, shut up, that's not true, people go, fair enough, he's
20:16right.
20:17One mother.
20:18So I get questioned.
20:20God, well, you know, parents were storming out with the kids.
20:22It's rubbish.
20:26I am disappointed at the moment because I'm not trying to, I'm trying to be myself.
20:34But whenever the going got tough, I had that love and support from Michael.
20:42In Excess is the first non-American group to land six consecutive top 10 hits in the
20:48Hot 100 since Culture Club in 1983-84.
20:53Nice.
20:54Really?
20:55Nice.
20:56But Michael was touring all over the world.
21:01So it became really hard for us to see each other.
21:14So I would send video messages to him.
21:36I think of another message to give you very shortly.
21:42But it just became more and more difficult.
21:45Are you still in love with Kylie?
21:48I think of another message to give you very shortly.
21:49Jeff.
21:52Don't ask me a kiss.
21:53That's, no, it's too private, you know.
21:56At the very least we're very good friends, you know, and always will be.
22:00It's not, you know, and at the very best, who knows?
22:05Who knows?
22:12He was the first in so many ways.
22:13Two worlds collided, and they could never tear us apart.
22:21And one of those firsts was a heartbreak.
22:32I was devastated.
22:38He was a rock star.
22:40Which doesn't just mean that he needs to have many women in his life, but he needed to go
22:48where he needed to go.
22:53But I know from people in his circle that he talked of me and thought of me.
23:06We were good together.
23:11Shoulda, woulda, coulda, whatever.
23:13You know, you go on and live your lives.
23:17But it was definitely an amazing point in time.
23:22And I've probably been looking for something like that ever since, and I haven't got it.
23:30Really?
23:32Yeah.
23:34Can I ask, when you think of him today, how does it make you feel?
23:43Good.
23:44Even if I'm getting teary, because it just, it's like, it was all good.
23:50Yeah. But to have someone that you really felt like you're a good team. Yeah.
24:02Anyway, we've got to go get past that.
24:09I didn't know where to go, what to do. And I didn't want to be in London. I didn't want
24:14to
24:14be in Australia. And so I went to Paris. I remember having a tiny English to French
24:24dictionary. I didn't know anyone there, but I had two phone numbers scratched on a bit
24:32of paper. And one of those numbers was a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of
24:39mine.
24:46And she lived with a girl called Kat. My best, oldest girlfriend, Katarina Jeb, whose apartment
24:54we're in. Kat doesn't like to be in front of a camera.
24:59I'm out of here.
25:00Tout à l'heure.
25:01Tell me if you need anything.
25:03OK. I'll wail. But she is an amazing photographer with an incredible eye and heart.
25:16And we say corners. Love from all corners. Kat Jeb, Prince. What do we have here? Paris.
25:30I moved myself into her apartment. I got a sleeping bag. I slept on the sofa. I was feeling heartbroken
25:40and was escaping my feelings. But we would do photo sessions. Just the two of us. I didn't
25:54know who she was because my exposure to pop culture was not very voluminous. But it was
26:03an instantaneous understanding. Going for it? I don't know. I've been the subject pretty
26:16much my entire life. But this was different. We're not doing it because someone's asked
26:26for it. We're doing it because we want to do it. The public persona versus the private persona.
26:35How many people can unveil themselves completely unfiltered?
26:42I'd been doing very dark lashes and kind of bouffant. And it was Kat who said to me, what
26:48about, would you just let your hair, just let the curls out or maybe less of the brows or,
26:55and then I went like to nothing.
26:59Even though a photograph can capture a moment, can capture a story, it's really hard to see
27:04yourself. There's this camera, there's, there's, there's a wall. There's a, you see through
27:09it. You can't see it, but there's a divide. And I felt with hers, the invisible wall was gone.
27:22And I was looking through Kat's photographs. And I thought, wow, I can see me. She was a
27:30real saviour to me. I started to feel good and confident as a woman on my own.
27:42She has called it the end of an era, and they have refused to comment. But Kylie Minogue's
27:47relationship with Pete Waterman Limited, her record company of five years, has ended.
27:52Kylie told MTV News that PWL found it hard to accept the changes.
27:56To be honest, I wasn't sad. And I remember, honestly, I'm not telling this, I had to sit
28:03with the staff here. I'll explain that at some point, you left home from your mum and dad.
28:09Well, this is Kylie leaving home from my mum and dad and making it on her own. That's all it
28:15is.
28:15And that's part of growing up. You know, so, um...
28:26We've come to an end. Things do come to an end, you know.
28:35I signed two deconstruction records.
28:40They had a very independent feel.
28:43Kylie, how do you do a rest in mutual?
28:48They were open to experimentation and wanted me to be much more involved.
28:57And we talked about a very different vocal delivery.
29:02We all get hurt by love.
29:06And we all have a cross to bear.
29:11I hadn't done those kind of notes before.
29:14But it was like, feel the fear and do it anyway.
29:17Problems should be shared.
29:25I've never done anything like that.
29:36Kylie Minogue returns to the pop scene this week with a new record and a new sound.
29:48The new album Kylie Minogue has widely been greeted as, you know, your bid to become treated as a serious
29:53artist.
29:54Is that how you see it?
30:01I can use whatever language I like.
30:16If Kylie Minogue represents the Australian dream, then Nick Cave is surely the Australian nightmare.
30:27Attracting a cult following with his twisted lyrics and darkly wasted image.
30:32All right.
30:33Go all the way down to the end.
30:38I think, I think, I think those songs are written with a fair amount of disgust for things.
30:42Yeah.
30:49Because I'm pretty disgusted in person.
30:57Look, I was an observer.
31:03And I just always liked her.
31:05Whenever I saw her on the TV, there was something about her that I liked.
31:11But, you know, I didn't sit around and listen to her records or anything.
31:15I wasn't like a fan fan.
31:19But there was something that I recognised in her that I responded to.
31:25But you just don't like to be photographed?
31:27No, I don't really.
31:28So, let's move it along here.
31:33There was a strange thing with Kylie because even though she had mass appeal, you know, she had everything but
31:40credibility.
31:42And I looked at her because I had credibility but not much else.
31:57At that time, I was writing a bunch of murder songs.
32:01So, I had a kind of audacious idea for Kylie Minogue to do a murder ballad.
32:10Yeah, hello.
32:12But there was terrible opposition from management and so forth that this is just a fucked up idea.
32:18Which it was.
32:20This is cool.
32:23Storyboard for where the wild roses grow.
32:26This is so cool.
32:28Nick observes Kylie's face and body in water.
32:32I was a well-known sort of drug addict.
32:35Close up angle static.
32:37Kylie lays in water.
32:38Tear on cheek.
32:38Flies possibly buzz around face.
32:40And the nature of the song was dubious.
32:44Close up static.
32:45Nick reaches for rock again.
32:50Yeah, I mean, that's always been close to my heart.
32:53Nick reached out and I was like, who?
32:58Like, huh?
32:59I was not the demographic of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds fan club.
33:05But there is an Australian thing.
33:08They just do shit, right?
33:10They just do stuff.
33:11And they don't think about it too much.
33:13They just give stuff a shot, you know.
33:16And she's like, yeah, okay.
33:19And...
33:19I was...
33:20I was naive.
33:21I didn't know.
33:26We were waiting for her to come into the studio.
33:31I don't think anyone had met Kylie before.
33:37And the Bad Seeds, we were a dark force.
33:43This group of weird, fucked up, sort of broken men.
33:49And a lot of drugs.
33:51And a contemptuous, pessimistic view of the world.
33:57But when she came into the studio...
34:01She was like this sort of beam of light.
34:09With this incredible positivity.
34:15I don't think we'd ever met anyone in our lives, really, that liked life.
34:24Just this sort of bold brightness.
34:29And we were really terrified.
34:32Or offered to some degree.
34:35From the first day I saw her, I knew she was...
34:39And when she went to record, she sang in a kind of Kylie-esque, trained...
34:46A lot of vocal tricks, I guess.
34:48And we were like, look.
34:51Forget all that.
34:52Just sing it straight.
34:54When he knocked on my door.
34:56And entered the room.
34:59Sing it less.
35:01Like, almost make it a story.
35:03He would be my first man.
35:05And be a character.
35:07With a careful hand.
35:08He wiped out the tears.
35:10And she just did this version of it that so beautifully haunted the whole thing.
35:15They call me the wild crow.
35:19We were just staggered.
35:22But my name's Eliza Day.
35:26Why they call me that I do not know.
35:33Good evening.
35:34And we have something very special for you tonight on Top of the Pops.
35:39I remember doing Top of the Pops.
35:42I think you can see by the performance, I don't know what's going on.
35:48I'm just sort of bumbling around.
35:51You know, the people that turned up to my concerts were psychos.
35:56We would be taking iron bars and scissors and knives off people in the front row.
36:01So I know about a dangerous audience.
36:06But I've never experienced anything like Kylie Minogue's audience.
36:13They were terrifying.
36:17Just these sort of monstrous, awful teenage girls.
36:24They did not like me.
36:26They did not like me to go near their princess.
36:29Well, Nick gets worried that my fans didn't like him or didn't like the project.
36:35I don't think that's so.
36:38And these little girls say, you fucking old bastard.
36:41What are you doing?
36:42You horrible old cunt.
36:44They were just evil.
36:47So I couldn't help but throw my arms around Kylie.
36:52And they're just running their fingers across their throats and saying, just don't.
36:58And then they turn the cameras towards them.
37:00And they'd all be like, hey.
37:04Kylie with Nick Cave in the back seat.
37:06Right.
37:06Well done.
37:08Evil.
37:09Evil people.
37:14I'm a hell of a lot better for seeing you.
37:17Did you read about us in the paper?
37:19No.
37:21Um, apparently we're snogging.
37:29More snogging than singing was the thing.
37:33Our worlds collided.
37:35But it was like another kind of love.
37:44I'm going to sound like I'm just like falling in love all the time, but it was really, um,
37:52some kind of union that wasn't romantic.
37:58I think we recognised a vulnerability in each other.
38:04That we were sort of, I think at that time, trying to escape.
38:12I was locked into a kind of lifestyle that was becoming increasingly problematic.
38:20But with Kylie, I could see the world in a positive way.
38:34I'd like to invite now Miss Kylie Minogue to come up here.
38:41And I think she wanted to break free from the sort of constraints that she thought she was imprisoned by.
38:54The prisoner of an image.
38:58That she was a sort of brainless pop pablum, you know, mush.
39:05But she had things to say.
39:09Particularly with the lyrics.
39:10It's like the most important thing you can do, really.
39:14And if you're writing your own lyrics, you don't have other people's thoughts coming out of your mouth.
39:18It's sort of defining yourself in a way.
39:20You don't have-
39:21Nick Cave says to me, where are your lyrics?
39:26Not really fully fleshed songwriting yet.
39:29If you feel things, then you're able to write them.
39:32So I hope you do that, Kylie.
39:35You know what I did find?
39:37Lyrics.
39:40I remember trying to write something that would talk to me.
39:46I wanted to be your lonesome cowboy.
39:48I wanted to love you till it hurt.
39:51That was a lyric.
39:52That's not my writing.
39:53Someone else has written in my book.
39:55She wanted to be stopped in time, suspended.
39:57It was the best ever night of it.
39:59And I said that obviously didn't make it.
40:01I mean, it's really terrible.
40:03This is going to sound really terrible when I say it out loud.
40:07You just can't wait, can you?
40:09Who would have thought that little girl would end up living out her wildest dreams?
40:15Sometimes it sounds really not so great saying it.
40:18There's a lot of absolute tosh in here.
40:21There's got to be something in here.
40:25I wanted to sometimes be irresponsible.
40:29I wanted to own the choice I made.
40:33Quite revealing.
40:34In what way?
40:37It's not self-explanatory.
40:39It's not very revealing at all.
40:44But then I caught something from the creative ether.
40:47I got up in this house, strapped my very old self in the snare of mine.
40:51It felt like a file was just like coming out of me.
40:57Oh, gosh.
41:00It was like contained rage.
41:07I wanted to find a way to put an end to all of my destruction.
41:11I wanted to know what I was worth.
41:14She really was she, I.
41:20I was just really in it.
41:22I wasn't separate to the song.
41:25Well, I would make it slower and shorter.
41:31I really wanted to be more than one facet.
41:35I have so many characters lurking in my body.
41:38It's frightening.
41:40I'm possessed.
41:45It was much more on the edge.
41:49I was very on the edge, clearly.
41:52I didn't know what I was saying.
41:55What do you mean?
41:59Her new album.
42:01Two years in the making.
42:04Let's get this lady out here.
42:05The impossible princess herself.
42:07Ladies and gentlemen, Carly Manon.
42:10Have you totally disown those really early songs now?
42:14I've actually not been able to say I should be so lucky in so many years.
42:18And in a way, it was a slight exorcism.
42:22There was an honesty and a purity and a...
42:25I'm just putting it all out there.
42:29It's definitely the most personal work I've ever done.
42:33Is that more nerve-wracking when it goes out?
42:36Yeah, scary.
42:41And then I saw a billboard.
42:43You don't know about the billboard?
42:47There was a billboard that said,
42:50we've decided what to do with Kylie's music.
42:54Don't play it.
42:56Boom!
43:00A royal slap.
43:02Quick test for sound, you alright?
43:04Yeah, go on.
43:04One, two, three, four, five.
43:05Hello, here we are at Tower Records.
43:07You started?
43:08Yep, it's about to.
43:09Sorry.
43:12Okay.
43:13Carly, if we could first start by asking you about the new album.
43:15I don't think I was on the radio at all.
43:18How did it all come about?
43:20In fact, some stations were actively not playing me.
43:28In the house tonight, wielding the new Mojica, Jason Donovan.
43:31You have to talk about Kylie Minogue.
43:32Do you follow her career?
43:33Have you turned her kind of venture with the latest album into doing some indie stuff?
43:36What do you think of that?
43:38It hasn't worked, I don't think.
43:42Kylie! Kylie!
43:51Some people just want to watch you crumble and they're on to the next person.
43:58Pop, disposable, pop, disposable.
44:01Other teen sensations seem to have come gone.
44:02What do you think your appeal is?
44:04I mean, can they seem to sort of disappear?
44:06You'd be better off asking other people that than me.
44:09I can't be that self analytical, I don't think.
44:14Many, many times I just thought, I just honestly don't know if this is worth it.
44:19Just tell me about the album though, it's got overly imaginative title.
44:24And the minute you start trying to defend yourself, they've won.
44:32Is there any truth to the rumours to you and Danielle?
44:35Excuse me, where are you from?
44:37Is that a serious question?
44:39Yeah.
44:39Is there any truth that we're not talking?
44:41I find that so ridiculous.
44:46Do you think she's had it really in terms of the music industry?
44:50I never thought she had it in the first place really.
44:53I was making deconstruction, no money.
44:56Zippo, nada.
44:57Rien, nothing.
44:59So, she's off the books.
45:03I thought, I'm going to act again.
45:05Because there was enough people who were thinking, if not saying, that's it.
45:11It's done.
45:33I got a phone call.
45:36And yeah.
45:41I don't remember what words she said, but it was like, he's gone.
45:52I got the flight back to Sydney for the funeral.
45:58I just went, oh, that's another first.
46:02This is my first service that I've been to.
46:05Like, okay.
46:07Always with the firsts.
46:09You know?
46:14We gather to mourn the death of someone whom most of us barely knew.
46:26We listened to him sing and felt that it was for us alone.
46:33We're here today to mourn the death of Michael Hutchence.
46:43It might seem disproportionate, the emotion and the memories I have with him and with that time.
46:52But I just felt protected and nurtured and valued and believed in.
47:02Someone you counted on is gone.
47:05I remember being at the church and it was overwhelming, the outpouring of love for him.
47:12Someone who was your rock is no more.
47:15That's going to sound totally crazy, but I felt him just saying, it's okay.
47:20It will be okay.
47:25I always feel he's with me.
47:30It's kind of crazy, but I do.
47:35Which is so, like, you can, you can have relationships with, as I have had, you know, relationships with different
47:43people, but someone that really just believed in, believes in you so much.
47:53Here's an important point.
47:56He really didn't want me to be someone else for him at all.
48:02He was encouraging me.
48:07To discover me.
48:08To discover me.
48:18Fuck.
48:19Ha, ha, ha, ha.
48:22Ha, ha, ha.
48:24Ha, ha, ha, ha.
48:34I had a kind of harebrained idea.
48:37Now without further ado I'd like to introduce the first of the talented and totally diverse
48:43artists.
48:44I was asked to go and perform at this thing called the Poetry Olympics.
48:47Two days and nights of continuous poetry that was put on that at the Albert Hall.
48:57Here is a love that makes its bargain with bad habits.
49:02Tell me lies about Vietnam.
49:05You can have sex with anyone, but with whom can you sleep?
49:11This had some great poets in it, but mostly it was just this endless, worthy art.
49:20When I take off my head, the head looks into my bleeding neck.
49:31People have been sitting in their chairs I think for, you know, a day listening to this
49:38poetry.
49:41I was seeing Kylie quite a bit and I'm like, why don't you come along and recite something?
49:50I was thinking, are you mad?
49:53The sword of Damocles is hanging over all of us.
49:57This is not my world.
49:59I'm not, I'm not from the literary world.
50:01In view of that, what subject can we sensibly discuss?
50:05So I tried everything to get out of it.
50:09She said she tried to get out of it.
50:11Oh really?
50:12We weren't having any of that.
50:15For what is liberty without the liberty to act?
50:19And I said to Nick, God's on stage, how do we follow that?
50:23He said, Jesus did okay.
50:25And then he went out.
50:33The way I remember it is that, which I'm surprised I can remember anything at all because we were
50:39so out of it.
50:41Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
50:48I would like to bring in the flame-like Tony Manon, ladies and gentlemen.
50:56She walked on this pop princess up against the most elitist art form there is of poetry.
51:07Well, thank you.
51:10Well, I didn't expect to be here, but I have come with words that I did not write, which
51:16I shall read to you.
51:28In my imagination, there is no hesitation.
51:33I dream about you all the time.
51:37And I could hear the recognition that the audience, they were with me and with us.
51:45In my imagination, there is no complication.
51:49We walk together, hand in hand.
51:52She just broke the night open.
51:53And I'm dreaming that you're in love with me.
51:57It was poetry that we could understand.
52:02I should be so lucky.
52:06Lucky, lucky, lucky.
52:08Yeah.
52:11I should be so lucky in love.
52:17It was like being face to face with my old self.
52:23The one that I was trying to turn my back on.
52:29I don't know if I said this outright, but I'm like, what the fuck are you doing?
52:33Like indie?
52:34I mean, no one willingly wants to be indie.
52:42They may say they do, but that's not what Kylie is.
52:54You know, Kylie is this force that is there to affect thousands and thousands and thousands
53:07of people.
53:10It's all outward.
53:13It's all giving.
53:16You have an enormous positive influence.
53:19These people that go along to their first pop concert.
53:23It's a life changing moment where they feel something that they've never known before.
53:31The great beauty of pop music is that it is a joy machine.
53:40You've got the coolest guy on the planet saying, where's the pop tunes?
53:52Right, let's get the jetpacks on and let's get back to the dance floor.
53:58But if this doesn't work, I am finished.
54:04I'm spinning around, move out of my way.
54:09I know you're feeling me cause you like it like this.
54:13I'm breaking it down.
54:15I'm not the same.
54:17I know you're feeling me cause you like it like this.
54:20I know you're feeling me cause you're feeling me cause you're feeling me cause you're feeling me.
