Yes, it’s a quarter of a century ago this Saturday that those immortal words drew back the curtains on Kylie Minogue’s music career. A rework of Little Eva’s 1962 classic, ‘Locomotion’ smashed the No.1 spot on the Australian singles chart at a time when Kylie’s star was shining bright as part of the cast of ‘Neighbours’.
25 years on, the song still features in Kylie’s live repertoire, so the singer’s boffins have tipped their hat to the classic track, unveiling the latest visual nugget as part of the K25 celebrations.
The clip features performances of the song from across Kylie’s career – live in Dublin, Intimate and live, live in Manchester and… there’s a special 2012 surprise right at the very end. Happy K25, Ms M. We’ve certainly enjoyed being aboard.
Australia's first stop for pop!

Yes, I’m being pedantic, but I feel it’s necessary to point out that the lyric, “All aboard!”, didn’t feature on the Australian version of “Locomotion” – it only featured on the re-recorded UK version, which was released over there in 1988….

Congratulations Kylie – what an amazing evolution from 1987 to 2012 – that last little tease from the Abbey Road Sessions has got me excited for more! I’m guessing we’ll get more information on that real soon…

Really over Kylie. Her last single bombed for a reason.
