The hit singles that are missing are: "Word Is Out", "If You Were With Me Now", "Finer Feelings", "What Kind Of Fool? (Heard It All Before)", "Where Is The Feeling?" and "Some Kind of Bliss".

Singles

  • "Giving You Up" was also released as a single on March 28, 2005 in the UK. It peaked at six, giving Minogue another top ten hit. It featured "Made of Glass" as a b-side, a song that was infamously leaked to the internet in December of 2004. "Giving You Up" and "Made of Glass" were both made written and produced with Xenomania. Although only a b-side, "Made Of Glass" was just as popular as "Giving You Up", instantly becoming a fan favourite and receiving attention from Australian radio and compiltations. Strangely, a few weeks into the songs release, the title of "Made Of Glass" appeared next to "Giving You Up" as a double a-side on the official ARIA music charts.

Ultimate Kylie (655 words)
I adore Kylie Minogue but I will, wthout hesitation, recommend people not to purchase Ultimate Kylie unless they are casual listeners who want a comprehensive and somewhat complete collection of her hit singles since 1983 or they are die-hard fans who must own everything that has Minogue's face and name on it.
Ultimate Kylie charts the Singing Budgie's ascension to fame singing utterly cheesy and throwaway Stock-Aitken-Watermann jingles, her brief flirtation with credibility in her Deconstruction days, and her subsequent career until the present day.
It shows how important Kylie is to SAW that when she demands to have more creative input into her works, they quietly comply and even come up with some tracks that aren't their usual five-minute brain excreta.
