The thing is a decent portion of padam’s success was bc of disco’s success previously among gays so a new Kylie song just had to be fun and addictive which this song did 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving a song to Rita seems like the equivalent of leaving your baby in a dumpster. GIRL mother, what must i do? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dit 45,455 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Rita wouldnt have made this a hit. Part of why Padam Padam went top ten in the UK and stuff was the "comeback narrative" associated with the track. Plus Kylie SERVEd in the mv in a way that i dont think Rita would...her visuals tend to be pretty basic whereas Padam Padam's mv was made with care even though it clearly had a very small budget. The director and Kylie knew how to maximize that budget lol! No shade to Rita obviously...just saying it's clear why PAdam was a hit wasn't just because it was a good pop song. It had a lot to do with it being a good pop song sang by Kylie and the narrative around it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
