Fine Line is the anticipated second album from British singer and actor Harry Styles. The album’s first single “Lights Up” was released without major announcements on October 11, 2019, accompanied by a music video.
Fans speculated that the album could have been titled Do You Know Who You Are?, as the phrase was mysteriously advertised before the release of “Lights Up” and displayed as a hashtag in the description of the music video. In addition to this, Harry’s website offers a vinyl copy of “Lights Up”, featuring a B-side titled “Do You Know Who You Are?”.
Just days after the surprise release of the album’s second single, “Watermelon Sugar”, Harry revealed the album’s tracklist via social media.
The Golden Tour was the fifteenth concert tour by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue. It was launched in support of her fourteenth studio album, Golden (2018) and visited Europe and Australia. The first leg of the tour will comprise shows in Europe, starting in 18 September 2018 in the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle, England and conclude in the SSE Arena in Belfast, Northern Ireland, before the tour moves over to Australia in March 2019, with dates during the “A Day on the Green” festival.
To coincide with the expected release of the album, Kylie Presents: Golden was announced, a promotional tour consisting of a series of concerts in smaller venues. A new arena tour was announced shortly after on February 23, 2018, with UK and Ireland dates being confirmed. Whilst discussing the development of the tour in July 2018, Kylie stated:
“We know we’ve got a good starting point with songs from this album, and everything else on top of that is… that’s where the difficulties start. Which older songs do we choose? And how many surprise moments that are a little more obscure do we put in for super fans? It’s a fun, yet slightly stressful part of the process.”
In an interview on Good Morning Britain, Kylie explained that the shows would be split into “two halves”, with an interval and a narrative throughout. She continued to say the setlist was mostly concrete at that point, mentioning “Raining Glitter” and “Lost Without You” as definite performances. Kylie’s costumes for the tour were designed by Ralph & Russo, Kolchagov Barba, Paco Rabanne, Jitrois, Stevie Stewart and Wrangler.
Shortly before the tour commenced in September 2018, Sonic Yootha were announced as the support act for the UK and Ireland dates, and the previously announced European dates of the Kylie Presents Golden promotional tour would be incorporated into the Golden Tour. On 7 November 2018, Kylie announced six Australian dates for the Golden Tour, three of which will be part of the “A Day on the Green” festival; another date in Sydney was announced due to popular demand.
In the weeks leading up to opening night, Kylie released several teaser videos and images for the tour, several of the photos teasing the inclusion of songs, such as “Put Yourself in My Place”, “Million Miles”, “The World Still Turns”, “Too Far” and “Light Years”; it was later revealed that none of these songs were part of the set list, and were merely selected to fit in with the travelling theme of the show’s narrative.
Out now is the soulful/R&B single ‘Be Real’ and is the first collaboration between Swedish producer Rasmus Faber and Greek singer-songwriter Metaxas.
Described as a nu-disco slow jam the single is indeed warm and smooth with a with laid back electronic synths and a beachside summer feel. Metaxas provides engaging vocals as he highlights the importance of being genuine in a relationship.
