CAN'T GET KYLIE OUT OF MY HEAD
Hello Keith,I was wondering why I haven't seen Kylie Minogue's "Fever" album on the charts. If I'm not mistaken it has done really well here. Also her singles for "Love At First Sight" and "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" have been all over the radio stations, but why haven't they showed up on the charts at all? How did her album do this time? Do you think she'll be back in the U.S. soon?
Thanks,
Michael
Hello Michael,Kylie has had a good deal of success on our charts this past year. Her "Fever" album debuted at No. 3 on The Billboard 200 earlier this year and has since sold 838,000 units, according to Nielsen SoundScan. She's charted two singles on the Billboard Hot 100: "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" (No. 7) and "Love At First Sight" (No. 23). The third single from "Fever" is "Come Into My World." The Capitol track just went to radio recently, so it should debut on the charts soon.
Minogue is currently out of the U.S. right now, but she'll be returning to the States soon to do a number of radio station concerts. Those "Jingle Ball" events include WXKS Boston on Dec. 11, WHTZ (Z100) New York on Dec. 12, and KIIS Los Angeles on Dec. 15.
