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.
02:26I love you, love you, love you, love you.
02:42Yeah OK.
02:43OK, it's OK.
02:44We are now on the Orient Express on June 26.
02:48This is an American couple filming this young Australian couple who are here to have a great
02:55time.
02:55you're on the air yes he was this wild guy but his intention was good even if
03:05we weren't being so good everything was done with a lot of love I had so many
03:19firsts with him hi hi I'd never felt like I had blinkers on but he took them off
03:38I was at the perfect age I was 21 years old
03:47that's nice
04:00he was hilarious
04:06and cultured and 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
04:37you can see in any pictures from then as well
04:46maybe life wasn't going so fast for a second because I remember all of it like being on
04:55that boat in Hong Kong with that feeling of promise I felt like a jewel if you dropped it it
05:04would smash
05:05but if you protected it it could shine
05:16you're gonna marry him
05:18it would be nice to be proposed to but I don't know we'll have to see
05:33at the time I got in to see NXS recording in the studio
05:38and I loved it I loved being in amongst that I felt like I discovered a tribe
05:48thought it was amazing to see them write songs together and have ownership over the end result
05:56you know we're pretty much equal
05:58we tend to discuss things I'll say I think this and if they all go oh yeah we agree with
06:03that then
06:04we'll go into songs
06:04it must be that way you have to be true yourself
06:11then it was like a light bulb
06:18I wanted to express myself more and I just hadn't had that before
06:31I knew this was the turning point
06:36she had a rock star boyfriend
06:39and Michael gave her the confidence to be confident
06:43whatever I did I knew she wasn't gonna like
06:46remember the old days
06:50remember the old days
06:54a bit of guitar
06:56a bit more guitar
06:59here's a hi-hat
07:02I'd started making noise
07:05I've got an idea
07:07I mean what about this and what about that
07:09we haven't got time to discuss anything
07:12because 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
07:32be 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
07:43oh well um I'm just tired of playing it so safe
07:49and I should be allowed to speak
07:51should be allowed to have some input
07:54just to to be able to to have something to do with my work
07:58you know not just be the face for it
08:07it's like someone was strangling any creativity that I had
08:14and by being forced to be quiet
08:17shut up and listen
08:18I 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
08:37listen
08:38I have two daughters
08:41and at some point
08:42the old man don't know as much as they do
08:48that's called growing up
08:50I didn't used to be able to say no
08:54you do now
08:55I certainly do
08:56yeah I do
09:04I was reclaiming my sense of self
09:13and that's when I discovered
09:15that there were many more Kylie's out there
09:19it's upon the hour to come amongst you
09:21and amaze you
09:30I think my manager had said
09:35there's a Kylie Knight
09:36and I'd never heard of a Kylie Knight
09:39I'm like what
09:50there's drag performers dressed as you
09:54do you want to go
09:55yeah
09:56it was like wow
10:09like supersonic versions of me
10:16and this was a time when it was in to really not like me
10:26and I ended up on stage
10:27at this drag bar
10:29and I felt like the least Kylie there
10:33yeah I thought I'd go step it up
10:35I gotta get some lashes on
10:37and some eyeliner or something
10:43Pete Waterman had been badgered sufficiently to go
10:46alright kid
10:47what 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
11:07you'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
11:18and then I'm not a threat to them
11:21there's something pretty remarkable about young Kylie Minogue
11:25gossip columnists write her off as the singing budgie
11:29well the budgie's feathers are ruffled
11:32Monday 29 jam 10.30 sharp
11:36I remember that gig
11:41we caught ourselves singing budgies
11:45I remember what I was wearing
11:47my amazing shiny tights
11:50that 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
12:14and 50 years old but they look 70
12:16and they've got bad breath and can't control themselves
12:20and they're probably jealous
12:25we've gone from I should be so lucky
12:28to Kylie the diva
12:29in one foul swoop
12:33she wanted to see the video makers
12:36she wanted her own stylers
12:37the guys that we've worked with here for years
12:40she just went I'm not working with those guys anymore
12:43whether it's stylists or photographers or whoever
12:47I'm working with them
12:49rather than just being force-fed their ideas
12:55I was running from the 80s
12:58the sheen of it
13:00the era of it
13:01the puppeteering
13:03or the having no substance
13:07and as soon as I had my image
13:08in my little grasp
13:13by God I turned into a lunatic
13:26those few bars that we heard there
13:28the first time anybody's heard your new single
13:30in this country
13:31and a video to go with you
13:32well yeah that's being sent over tomorrow actually

15:16journey from Belfast
15:19it's great
15:19it's great to finally
15:20be here

15:22about a changing image

15:36when they come to see you
15:41well
15:44lots of choreography
15:45fabulous costumes
15:47my outfits have been
15:49designed by John Galliano
15:51after checking her out
15:52seeing how she danced
15:54how she moved
15:54getting 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
16:08and a body slip with built-in knickers
16:15everybody's going
16:16oh no no no
16:17whoa
16:19this is Kylie's wish
16:21ready
16:215, 6, 7, 8
16:25this is what she wants to do
16:34she's going 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 it was
17:02we went a bit far
17:03I'm not going to lie
17:04we went a bit far
17:12I mean a good
17:13maybe it was good in real
17:14but 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
17:43by strutting across the stage
17:45in some of this ghetto
17:46I don't have to describe it too much
17:47Kylie 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
17:54or did you throw most of it away?
17:56I saw some of it
18:01they say that you look a bit like Madonna now
18:04or you're trying to model yourself
18:05well when we're saying they
18:07we're talking about the tabloid
18:08that was tricky
18:10to defend those decisions
18:19with your new tour on it
18:21there is such controversy
18:22yeah I'm a bit surprised
18:28she kind of went too far
18:30prancing around the Dublin stage
18:32in lingerie
18:33she went from the girl next door
18:36to the girl next door
18:37who's been around the flock
18:39it's much raunchier than it was
18:40yes I mean I don't really like to
18:42call myself raunchy
18:44we've just seen your raunchy new video
18:46that new raunchy image
18:48it's certainly fairly raw isn't it
18:50raw
18:52well raw as in raunchy I mean
18:56there was a time when you thought
18:57when you said you were raunchier
18:59than your sister
19:00she's changed the image hasn't she
19:02yeah she has lately
19:03I remember thinking
19:06this is so boring
19:10repetitive
19:14stupid
19:15to hear that Kylie Minogue is too sexy
19:17is a bit like hearing that
19:18Mary Poppins has turned into a hooker
19:23I mean imagine you just show up to work every day
19:26and you just
19:30there's even been speculation in Australia
19:33that 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
19:51if you say something
19:53you're a bitch
19:55you've got an ego
19:56you're a diva
19:58any motor accompanying
20:00no well you know if you're going to interview me
20:03having researched tabloid newspapers
20:06there's no point talking to me
20:08because 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
20:14people go
20:14fair enough he's right
20:17one mother
20:18so I get questioned
20:19god well you know
20:20parents were storming out with the kids
20:22it's rubbish
20:25I am disappointed at the moment
20:27because I'm not trying to
20:29I'm trying to be myself
20:34but whenever the going got tough
20:36I had that love and support from Michael
20:42In Excess is the first non-American group
20:45to land six consecutive top ten hits
20:48in the Hot 100
20:49since Culture Club in 1983-84
20:57but Michael was touring
20:59all over the world
21:01so it became really hard
21:04for us to see each other
21:14so I would send video messages to him
21:20is it telling you it's low light?
21:23one, two, three
21:25Kylie sends a light to Michael
21:35I 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?
21:48God, Jeff
21:52don't ask me a kiss
21:53that's, no, it's too private
21:54at the very least
21:56we're very good friends
21:57you know
21:58and always will be
22:00it's not, you know
22:01and at the very best
22:03who knows
22:05who knows
22:06I was standing
22:10you were there
22:11he was the first in so many ways
22:13two worlds collided
22:17and they could never tear us apart
22:21and one of those first was
22:23a heartbreak
22:31I was devastated
22:34we could live
22:38he was a rock star
22:40which doesn't just mean
22:43that he needs to have
22:44many women in his life
22:45but he needed to
22:48go where he needed to go
22:53but I know from
22:54people in his circle
22:57that he
22:59talked of me
23:00and thought of me
23:06we were good together
23:11shoulda, woulda, coulda
23:12whatever
23:13you know
23:13you go on and live
23:14your lives
23:17but it was definitely
23:18an amazing
23:21point in time
23:22and I've probably
23:23been looking for something
23:24like that ever since
23:25and I haven't got it
23:30really?
23:32yeah
23:33can I ask
23:34when you think of him today
23:36how does it make you feel?
23:43good
23:43even if I'm getting teary
23:45because it's just
23:45it's like
23:47it was all good
23:50yeah
23:50but to have
23:54someone that you really felt
23:55like you were a good team
23:57yeah
24:01anyway
24:02we've got to go
24:02get past that
24:09I didn't know where to go
24:11what to do
24:12and I didn't want to be in London
24:14I didn't want to be in Australia
24:16and so
24:18I went to Paris
24:21I remember having a tiny
24:23English to French dictionary
24:27I didn't know anyone there
24:29but I had two phone numbers
24:31scratched on a bit of paper
24:33and one of those numbers was
24:35a friend of a friend
24:37of a friend of a friend of a friend of mine
24:44and
24:47she lived with a girl called Kat
24:50my best oldest girlfriend
24:53Katarina Jeb
24:53whose apartment we're in
24:57Kat doesn't like to be in front of a camera
24:59I'm out of here
25:00ah tout à l'heure
25:01tell me if you need anything
25:02okay
25:04I'll wail
25:05but she is an amazing photographer
25:08with an incredible eye
25:10and heart
25:12corners
25:12corners and corners
25:16and we say corners
25:18love from all corners
25:23Katja prints
25:24what do we have here
25:25Paris
25:30I moved myself into her apartment
25:32I got a sleeping bag
25:34I slept on the sofa
25:38I was feeling heartbroken
25:40and was escaping my feelings
25:45but we would do photo sessions
25:50just the two of us
25:53I didn't know who she was
25:55because my exposure to pop culture
25:58was not very voluminous
26:02but it was an instantaneous understanding
26:09going for it
26:11I don't know
26:14I've been the subject pretty much my entire life
26:19but this was different
26:23we're not doing it because someone's asked for it
26:28we're doing it because we want to do it
26:31the public persona versus the private persona
26:35how many people can unveil themselves
26:40completely unfiltered
26:42I'd been doing very dark lashes
26:45and kind of buffon
26:46and it was Kat who said to me
26:48what about
26:49would you just let your hair
26:51just let the curls out
26:52or maybe less of the brows
26:54and then I went like to nothing
26:59even though a photograph can capture a moment
27:01can capture a story
27:02it's really hard to see yourself
27:05there's this camera
27:06there's a wall
27:08you see through it
27:10you can't see it
27:11but there's a divide
27:15and I felt with hers
27:16the invisible wall
27:19was gone
27:22and I was looking through Kat's photographs
27:25and I thought wow I can see me
27:29she was a real saviour to me
27:32I started to feel good and confident
27:36as a woman on my own
27:42she has called it the end of an era
27:43and they have refused to comment
27:45but Kylie Minogue's relationship
27:47with Pete Waterman Limited
27:48her record company of five years
27:50has ended
27:52Kylie told MTV News
27:54that PWL found it hard to accept the changes
27:56to be honest
27:58I wasn't sad
27:59and I remember honestly
28:01I'm not telling you
28:02I had to sit with the staff here
28:04and explain
28:05that at some point
28:07you left home
28:08from your mum and dad
28:09well this is Kylie
28:11leaving home
28:11from my mum and dad
28:13and making it on her own
28:14that's all it is
28:15and that's part of growing up
28:18you know
28:19so
28:26we've come to an end
28:27things do come to an end
28:29you know
28:34I signed two deconstruction records
28:39they had a very independent feel
28:42Kylie
28:43how do you do a rest of the mutual
28:48they were open to experimentation
28:51and wanted me to be much more involved
28:56and we talked about
28:58a 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
29:15feel the fear and do it anyway
29:16problems should be shared
29:25I've never done anything like that
29:35Kylie Minogue returns to the pop scene this week
29:39with a new record and a new sound
29:47the new album Kylie Minogue
29:49has widely been greeted as
29:51you know
29:51your bid to become
29:52treated as a serious artist
29:54is that how you see it?
30:01I can use whatever language I like
30:16if Kylie Minogue represents the Australian dream
30:19then Nick Cave is surely the Australian nightmare
30:27attracting a cult following with his twisted lyrics
30:30and darkly wasted image
30:33all the way down to the end
30:38I think
30:39I think those songs are written
30:40with a fair amount of disgust for things
30:49because I'm pretty disgusted person
30:57look
30:58I was
31:00an observer
31:03and I just always liked her
31:05whenever I saw her on the TV
31:07there was something about her that I liked
31:11but you know
31:12I didn't sit around
31:13and listen to her records or anything
31:15I wasn't like a fan fan
31:19but there was something
31:20that I recognised in her
31:21that I responded to
31:32there was a strange thing with Kylie
31:35because even though she had mass appeal
31:37you know
31:38she had everything
31:40but credibility
31:41and I looked at her
31:44because
31:46I had credibility
31:47but not much else
31:57at that time
31:58I was writing a bunch of murder songs
32:01so I had a kind of audacious idea
32:04for Kylie Minogue to do a murder ballad
32:12but there was terrible opposition
32:14from management and so forth
32:16that 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
32:27Nick observes Kylie's face and body in water
32:32I was a well-known sort of drug addict
32:35close-up angle static
32:36Kylie lays in water
32:37tear on cheek
32:38flies possibly buzz around face
32:40and the nature of the song
32:42was dubious
32:44close-up static
32:45Nick reaches for rock
32:47again
32:50yeah I mean that's always been
32:51close to my heart
32:53Nick reached out
32:54and I was like
32:58who?
32:58like huh?
33:00I was not the demographic
33:01of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
33:04fan club
33:05but there is an Australian thing
33:08they just do shit
33:10right
33:10they just do stuff
33:11and they don't think about it too much
33:13they just give stuff a shot
33:15you know
33:15and she's like
33:17yeah okay
33:18and
33:19I was
33:20I was naive
33:22I didn't know
33:26we were waiting for her
33:27to come into the studio
33:31I don't think anyone
33:33had met Kylie before
33:36and the Bad Seeds
33:39we were a dark force
33:42this group of weird
33:44fucked up sort of broken men
33:49a lot of drugs
33:50and a contemptuous
33:52pessimistic view of the world
33:57but when she came into the studio
34:01she was like this sort of
34:03beam of light
34:09with this incredible positivity
34:15I don't think we'd ever met
34:17anyone in our lives
34:19really that liked life
34:24just this sort of bold
34:27brightness
34:29and we were really
34:30terrified
34:31or offered to some degree
34:35on the first day
34:36I saw her
34:37I knew she was
34:39and when she went to record
34:40she sang
34:41in a kind of
34:43Kylie-esque
34:45trained
34:46a lot of vocal tricks
34:48I guess
34:48and
34:50and we were like
34:50look
34:51forget all that
34:52just sing it straight
34:53when he knocked on my door
34:56and entered the room
34:59sing it less
35:00like almost
35:01make it a story
35:05and be a character
35:10and she just did this version of it
35:12that so beautifully haunted the whole thing
35:19we were just staggered
35:33good evening
35:34and we have something
35:35very special for you tonight
35:36on top of the pops
35:39I remember doing top of the pops
35:42I think you can see by the performance
35:44I don't know what's going on
35:48I'm just sort of bumbling around
35:51you know the people that turned up
35:53to my concerts
35:54were psychos
35:55we would be taking iron bars
35:58and scissors
35:59and knives
36:00off people in the front row
36:01so I know
36:03about
36:04a dangerous audience
36:05but I've never experienced
36:08but I've never experienced anything
36:08like Kylie Minogue's
36:11audience
36:13they were terrifying
36:16just these sort of monstrous
36:19awful teenage girls
36:24they did not like me
36:26they did not like me
36:27to go near their princess
36:29well Nick gets worried
36:31that my fans
36:32didn't like him
36:34or didn't like the project
36:35I don't think that's so
36:38and these little girls
36:39say 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
36:48but throw my arms around Kylie
36:52and they're just
36:53running their fingers
36:55across their throats
36:56and saying
36:56just don't
36:58and then they turn the cameras
36:59towards them
37:00and they'd all be like
37:01hey
37:04Kylie with Nick Cave
37:05in the back seats
37:06right well done
37:08evil
37:08evil people
37:14I'm a hell of a lot better
37:15for seeing you
37:17did you read about us
37:19in the paper
37:21apparently we're snogging
37:29more snogging than singing
37:31was the thing
37:33our worlds collided
37:35but it was like
37:36another kind of
37:38love
37:44I'm going to sound like
37:45I'm just like falling in love
37:46all the time
37:46but it was really
37:52some kind of union
37:54that wasn't romantic
37:58I think we recognised
38:00a vulnerability
38:02in each other
38:04that we were sort of
38:05I think at that time
38:07trying to
38:09escape
38:11I was locked into
38:13a kind of lifestyle
38:14that was becoming
38:15increasingly problematic
38:19I was Kylie
38:22I could see the world
38:27in a positive way
38:33thank you
38:34I'd like to invite now
38:35Miss Kylie Minogue
38:36to come up here
38:41I think she wanted to
38:43break free
38:45from
38:45the sort of constraints
38:47that she thought
38:48she was imprisoned by
38:54the prisoner of an image
38:58that she was a sort of
39:00brainless
39:02pop
39:03pablum
39:03you know
39:04mush
39:05but she had
39:07things to say
39:09particularly with the lyrics
39:10it's like the most
39:12important thing you can do
39:13really
39:13and if you're writing
39:15your own lyrics
39:15you don't have other
39:16people's thoughts
39:17coming out of your mouth
39:18it's sort of defining
39:19yourself in a way
39:20you don't have
39:20Nick Cave
39:21says to me
39:23where are your lyrics
39:26not really fully fleshed
39:27somewhere yet
39:29if you feel things
39:30then you're able to
39:30write them
39:32so I hope you do that
39:34Kylie
39:35you know what I did find
39:37lyrics
39:40I remember
39:41trying to write something
39:42that would talk to me
39:46I wanted to be your
39:47lonesome cowboy
39:48I wanted to love you
39:49till it hurt
39:51that was a lyric
39:52that's not my writing
39:53someone else's written
39:54in my book
39:55she wanted to be stopped
39:55in time suspended
39:56it was the best ever
39:58night of it
39:58and I said that
39:59obviously didn't make it
40:00I mean
40:02it's really terrible
40:03this is going to sound
40:05really terrible
40:05when I say it out loud
40:07you just can't wait
40:07can you
40:08who would have thought
40:10that little girl
40:12would end up
40:13living out her wildest dreams
40:15sometimes it sounds
40:16really not so great
40:17saying it
40:18there's a lot of
40:19absolute tosh
40:20in here
40:21there's got to be
40:22something in here
40:23I wanted to sometimes
40:27be irresponsible
40:29I wanted to own
40:31the choice I made
40:32quite revealing
40:34in what way
40:37it's not self-explanatory
40:39it's not very revealing
40:40at all
40:44but then I caught
40:45something from the
40:47creative ether
40:47got up in this house
40:49strapped my very old self
40:50in the snare
40:51it felt like
40:53a fire
40:55was just like
40:56coming out of me
40:57oh gosh
41:00it was like
41:02contained
41:03rage
41:07I wanted to find a way
41:09to put an end
41:09to all of my destruction
41:11I wanted to know
41:12what I was worth
41:14she really was
41:15she
41:16I
41:16I was just really
41:21in it
41:23I wasn't separate
41:24to the song
41:25well I would make it
41:26slower
41:27and shorter
41:31I really wanted to be
41:32more than one facet
41:35I have so many
41:36characters lurking in my body
41:38it's frightening
41:39I'm possessed
41:44it was much more on the edge
41:48I was very on the edge
41:50clearly
41:52what 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
42:07Kylie Minogue
42:10have you totally disown
42:11those really early songs now?
42:14I've actually
42:15not been able to say
42:16I should be so lucky
42:17in so many years
42:18and in a way
42:19it was a slight exorcism
42:22there was an honesty
42:24and a purity
42:25and a
42:26I'm just
42:26putting it all out there
42:28it's definitely
42:29the most personal
42:30work I've ever done
42:33is that more nerve wracking
42:34when it goes out?
42:36yeah
42:36scary
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
43:03you alright?
43:04yeah go on
43:04one two three four five
43:05hello here we are
43:06at Tower Records
43:07you started?
43:08yep it's about to
43:09sorry
43:10thank you
43:12okay
43:13Kylie if I could first start by asking you about the new album
43:15I don't think I was on the radio
43:17at all
43:18how did it all come about?
43:20in fact
43:21some stations were actively not playing me
43:28in the house tonight
43:29wielding the new mojica
43:30Jason Donovan
43:31you have to talk about Kylie Minow
43:32do you follow her career?
43:33have you turned her kind of venture
43:34with the latest album
43:35into doing some indie stuff
43:36what do you think of that?
43:37it hasn't worked
43:38I don't think
43:40Kylie! Kylie! Kylie!
43:51some people
43:52just want to
43:55watch you crumble
43:56and they're on to the next person
43:58pop, disposable
43:59pop, disposable
44:00other team sensations seem to have come on
44:02what do you think your appeal is
44:04I mean
44:06you'd be better off asking other people that
44:08than me
44:09I can't be that
44:10self-analytical
44:12I don't think
44:13many, many times
44:15I just thought
44:15I just honestly don't know
44:17if this is worth it
44:19just tell me about the album
44:20it's got overly imaginative title
44:24and the minute you start
44:26trying to defend yourself
44:29they've won
44:35excuse me, where are you from?
44:37is that a serious question?
44:39is there any truth that we're not talking?
44:41I find that
44:42so 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
44:58so she's off the books
45:03I thought
45:04I'm going to act again
45:05because there was enough people
45:08who were thinking
45:08if not saying
45:09that's it
45:11it's done
45:33I got a phone call
45:36and yeah
45:41I don't remember what words she said
45:43but
45:43it was like
45:44he's gone
45:51I got the flight back to Sydney
45:54for the funeral
45:58I just went
45:59oh
46:00that's another first
46:01this is my first
46:04service that I've been to
46:05like
46:07okay
46:07always with the firsts
46:09you know
46:15we gather
46:16to mourn
46:17the death
46:18of someone
46:19whom most of us
46:21barely knew
46:26we listened to him sing
46:29and felt that it was for us alone
46:33we're here today
46:34to mourn
46:35the death
46:37of Michael Hutchence
46:42it might seem disproportionate
46:45the emotion
46:46and the memories I have
46:47with him
46:48and with that time
46:52but I just felt protected
46:54and nurtured
46:55and valued
46:56and
46:58believed in
47:02someone you
47:03counted on
47:04is gone
47:05I remember being
47:06at the church
47:07and
47:08it was overwhelming
47:09the outpouring of love
47:11for him
47:11someone who was your rock
47:14is no more
47:15that's going to sound
47:15totally crazy
47:16but
47:17I felt him
47:18just saying
47:19it's okay
47:20it will be okay
47:25I always feel
47:26he's with me
47:30it's kind of crazy
47:31but I do
47:35which is so
47:36like
47:36you can
47:37you can
47:38have relationships
47:39with
47:41as I have had
47:42you know
47:43relationships
47:43with different people
47:44but someone
47:44that really
47:45just believed
47:46in
47:47believes in you

47:53here's an important
47:54point

47:57want me
47:57to be
47:58someone else
48:00for him
48:00at all
48:02he was encouraging
48:04me
48:06to discover
48:07me

48:35of harebrained
48:36idea
