May it join the esteemed ranks of other non-Bond anthems such as “Glory Box” by Portishead, Amy Winehouse’s “You Know I’m No Good,” and pretty much anything Lana Del Rey has ever recorded.

LISTEN: Kylie Minogue’s long-lost collab with Prince finally surfaces 32 years later
Kylie and Prince’s song “Babydoll” had been rumored for more than three decades.
'At the time the press were really harsh on me, it didn't seem like the public were, but the press were. In just three and a half minutes, Kylie whacks out a brass section, a booming male chorus and a preposterously brilliant French spoken interlude that could even make Emily blush in Paris.
In short, it’s a masterpiece, just like the video which features an army of Kylies, every gay man’s dream, including one who is wearing an actual leather beret.
Firstly, and most obviously: The song is simply a bop. Now there’s tons of them – choose a look.”
She continued, “I’m the least Kylie person when I’m at any of those nights. And it’s impossible not to notice that queer people, particularly gay men, have been driving its meteoric rise. She can also be seen playing herself in Netflix’s whodunit The Residence streaming March 20.

Debating Kylie Minogue’s crown jewels: “Padam Padam” vs.
If something is “so bad it’s good,” we are the ones who get to decide. For example, remember that very weird Pride Month in 2017 when the Babadook became a queer icon? Or more recently, after this February’s BAFTA Awards, I was physically unable to tweet about anything other than the infamous “Angela Bassett did the thing” for several days, thanks to Ariana DeBose’s unintentionally iconic performance.
“Your Disco Needs You” is so gay that the U.K. record company refused to release it, sparking actual protests from (presumably) gay men outside the label. (Faced with a crowd chanting “YOUR DISCO NEEDS YOU!” she eventually obliged.) “Padam Padam” seems to have entered that same gay lexicon, the shorthand many of us use to communicate with each other.
Surprise collaborations also popped up with Welsh rockers the Manic Street Preachers and the musician Nick Cave who Kylie worked with on a haunting ballad called “Where The Wild Roses Grow.”
Before Kylie had us spinning around with all the lovers, she sang about having her head bashed in with a rock by a guy who had been quietly obsessed with her for about six years.
The drama. Indie Kylie was an actual thing in the mid-’90s following her split from Stock, Aitken & Waterman a few years prior. Because gay history is what? And the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress should have gone to…
“Slow” (2003), where Kylie seductively sang “Take it down, down…” and turned us gay in the process. Kylie added that she was slammed for making the move from Neighbours to music, and was told, 'you're an actress and not a singer'. We’ll wait.
Ok, assuming the world survived the years that binge took out of you, let’s look back at Kylie’s first big gig, the role of Charlene Mitchell, which she first played back in 1986. It’s an unexpected twist in an already incredible, decades-long career.
No, not the final-final episode coming later this year. But clearly, she was onto something when she said “Better The Devil You Know” because this surprise duet is actually the pinnacle of Kylie’s experimental phase, which didn’t make a huge dent on the charts, but did speak to her ambition as an artist.
Special shout out to Kylie’s “Confide In Me,” the best James Bond theme song that was never made an official James Bond theme song.
