Was it ever intended to be released as single actually?

Always reminded me of 'PC World......'
I’m sure someone has claimed previously that there were loose plans to have it as a single. I’m personally glad it was a single as it is a pile of garbage. One of her worst songs alongside All I Wanna Do Is Make You Mine, Time Will Pass You By & Wow!
I don’t mind it. It’s one of those it’s so bad that it’s good tracks for me.
But that’s your opinion, they don’t reflect the opinion for the rest of us or the general public. It’s just the way you word it as if the world agrees with you.Quote:

At the time, when I played it in the car my dad thought it was The Nolan’s.
I remember at the time reading an interview where Kylie said she could see it being a Christmas no.2
My shame maybe but I had this on repeat all the time. Loved it. Along with the underrated World Still Turns :)
I love WITW
The song is a marmite song - I love the fun of it.
Her vocal on the track is absolutely dreamy. You can tell she had been touring and having vocal lessons. Her reverb and control is just amazing.
The acapella is stunning too.

Fantastic key change too
It’s a bit too much Schlager for me. Could be sung by Michelle, Helene Fischer or Beatrice Egli today.
So you to drop that in 🙄.Quote:

At the time, it felt like WITW could belong on Enjoy Yourself. However, Kylie’s vocal is sensational on this track.Quote:

Love it. Esp Kylie's vocals. Tho the instrumentation is a bit 'casio keyboard!
There's rumored to be a 'Orchestral' version would love to hear this, if true :)
I can see itQuote:

I might be late to the party here but I finally get WITW. In sound, it feels like a West End musical. Also, it reminded me of That’s Why They Write Love Songs. Theatrical and so OTT. Love it.
Bring on Anti Tour 2.0. Imagining Kylie and the band bringing WITW to life..
