By far the worst of Kylie's DVDs.......2007-04-03

Let me say I am a huge Kylie fan, and own 5 concert DVDs including this one (FEVER 2002): Live in Sydney (On a Night Like This); Body Language (Money Can't Buy); Showgirl; and Showgirl Homecoming.

The latest -- and most underwhelming purchase -- is by far this one. Fever lacks any punch or pizazz, and after placing it chronologically between the two knock-out shows from the On a Night Like This and Money Can't Buy performances, Fever shows its weakness.

The dancing is often dreadful; much of the show goes for a Martha Graham-esque contemporary vibe, with long extensions, pointed toes, and oh-so-dramatic movements. Am I getting a fever? Not with such droll, "artistic" movements from everyone, everywhere.

But what makes it really dreadful are the musical arrangements and editing. Fever marks the start of the oh-so-dreaded image super-imposition trend: words, effects, and even kylie herself are superimposed over the action, taking away from the performance itself. Arguably the BEST arrangement and performance on the entire DVD -- Confide in Me -- is muddled over with "HIT" "MISS" "1-555-CONFIDE," etc to throwback to the music video of the same track... and substantially takes away the rare drama within the choreography. I just want to see Kylie and her dancers -- not the stage TV images imposed over it all.

The arrangement of many songs has more rock themes, often drowning out Kylie and most everything else. Blargh.

A few good tracks are found in this mess: Confide in Me, Coyboy Style, and Light Years/I Feel Love are pretty much it. And Kylie's debut in her sci-fi-inspired gear is pretty fab. But other than that?

So many great Kylie songs, so totally mangled.

If it's your first Kylie DVD, get Body Language. Short set, great energy, awesome costumes -- gives you a real taste of Kylie. After that, go for Live in Sydney and Showgirl. Leave Fever behind, as it's sorely lacking.

Still love ya tons, Kylie. ;)

Kylie For the 21st Century!.......2007-02-08

This is one of the best concert DVD's I own, which is quite surprising, considering that the genre (dance/pop) is usually superficial. With few exceptions, it has her best songs (as well as the best versions of those songs). The costumes and choreography are risque, artsy, and high-tech. The concert is not without its flaws--in many cases, it's hit or miss, but there is only one track that's bad in its entirety. This is Kylie for the 21st Century!

The concert opens in spectacular fashion with Kylie emerging from a space pod in stunning sci-fi gear singing "Come Into My World" and "Shocked." Then, it's Kylie at her most Madonna-like singing "Love At First Sight." "Fever" is okay except that the backup dancers wear ridiculous costumes. Kylie switches to street clothes for "Spinning Around," one of her stronger numbers. Then there's a sequence of ballads including "Crying Game" and "Put Yourself in My Place" in which she's wearing an elegant black leather dress. The dancers show off their moves in "GBI." For "Confide in Me," Kylie-the-Cop comes out and faces off against a Taebo graffiti artist (If cops were as hot as Kylie, no one would ever resist arrest!) "Cowboy Style," in which she tries to imitate Eminem, is the only bad track on the DVD. I would also add that the costumes for the backup dancers look like they came from a clearance rack from 1985. For "Kids," she gets some quality help from her two African-American female backup singers. "On A Night Like This" is a club classic, and always sounds good. Kylie also looks really sexy in her lingerie. Now "Locomotion" is her best-known track in the U.S., and one drawback to performing it is that it's overplayed and sounds a bit simplistic. So for this concert, Kylie slowed it down and performed a burlesque, adults-only version in which she formed a human chain with her scantily clad dancers. Afterwards, she does "In Your Eyes" and throws in a little Gloria Estefan with her "Rhythm of the Night" It doesn't work. But now comes the part of the concert that is truly phenomenal, and vaults it into one of the best concert DVD's EVER. The techno music starts, and Kylie sings first "Limbo," then "Light Years" which merges into "I Feel Love" (Kylie does a very mean Donna Summer imitation). Then there's a trance version of "Lucky" which is much more sophisticated and superior to the original version. Kylie bows out from the stage, then reappears as a phoenix goddess to an aborigine tribe. Her dress is gorgeous and looks like it's on fire. She sings "Burning Up" (what else?) and the showstopper "Better the Devil You Know." Kylie leaves the stage again, then returns for a second encore and does her best number: "Can't Get You Out Of My Head." It is perfectly sung and danced to. Additionally, New Order's "Blue Monday" is spliced in to add another layer to the song and to remind everyone that this is Manchester after all.

AUSSIE's CANT DANCE.......2006-10-04

OMG the b*t&h cant dance. I guess when you've seen concert from the likes of Tina, Cher, Janet and the GREAT MADONNA. You just expect alot. Simple hand gestures and saucy leg movements do not make a concert. COME ON WOMAN, PUT SOME EFFORT IN THIS. IF YOU EMAIL ME. YOU CAN HAVE MY DVD.

Feel The Fever!!.......2006-05-01

This was a pretty damn good tour, but the on a night like this tour was better. here's the set list
1. intro - the sound of music
2. come into my world - one of my favorite songs off of the fever album. great way to open up the show. she's robotic!
3. shocked - she performs a pretty cool remix.
4. love at first sight - an o.k. performance, but kylie's pretty shakey in the vocals.
5. fever - i like how she's on the bed singing the song.
6. spinning around - loved the performance. costumes were kind of weird, but it was cool.
7. the crying game ballads (the crying game, put yourself in my place, finer feelings, dangerous game) - beautiful performance. very sexy dress she had on.
8. gbi (german bold italic) - the premier of the song. i had to get it after i heard it.
9. confide in me - the best performance of cim i've ever seen
10. cowboy style/double dutch - really cool. i also like how she raps to the real slim shady but makes it into the real slim lady. :)
11. kids - she sings with her backup singers. sexy and cool
12. on a night like this - really sexy and i love the outfit that she wears.
13. locomotion - absolutely love this remix, but i can't find it anywhere. i like how kylie and her dancers form a locomotion.
14. in your eyes (latin section - in your eyes/please stay/rhythm of the night) - this was an awesome performance, but the male costumes were kinda.......interesting
15. limbo - pretty cool trance version of the impossibe princess song
16. light years/i feel love - love both songs and i like how they're both mixed. awesome performance
17. i should be so lucky/dreams - a trance version of the classic song. loved it
18. burning up - love the song, the performance was cool. i like how kylie was raised 15 ft in the air with a long red satin dress on.
19. better the devil you know - nice performance of her anthem
20. can't get blue monday out of my head - the encore of the most anticipated song of the tour. after the first verse of the song, kylie mixes the song with new order's blue monday. fantabulous.
great concert, but it doesn't top the on a night like this tour.

very different from the sydney DVD but still great.......2005-07-03

i, like many others, knew and loved the sydney DVD first. that show is incredibly upbeat throughout, w/ kylie clearly having a blast and everything is very extrovert. the goal for this concert was to match the fever album, and have a more "cool" and technological aesthetic. the result is less "fun" and less immediately catchy than the sydney show, but after i got used to the concept i found that i loved this concert just as much. although i think it's too bad kylie does less dancing (she's a great dancer!), it does a good job of giving a more sophisticated feel.

the show is divided into seven distinct sections. the first has kylie w/ a team of "cyborgs", and the opener, "come into my world", is just fantastic. the 2nd is based on a clockwork orange, then comes a medley of ballads (w/ kylie in a gorgeous black dress), then a more urban section, then a sexy section (w/ an absolutely great reworking of locomotion), then a clubby section (w/ "limbo" and a great, great, great new version of "lucky"). the encore section includes a sort of native american/tribal kylie on a platform covered by a huge dress, and then ends w/ kylie solo doing "can't get blue monday out of my head". kylie's vocals are strong and her live performance is always engaging; her band is first rate; the set, costumes, and camerawork are great; the projections are generally good (esp. the GBI ones which have kylie in a pink japanese-style wig and are just fantastic); and her dancing is less pop-style, but generally fits the music well. also, the setlist is a good mix of recent singles and less familiar tunes, including a lovely version of "the crying game".

this edition is great b/c it includes a lot of bonuses, including a section of the digital projections from the concert for 4 songs, a documentary, an audio CD of most of the highlights from the show (sadly the "lucky" remix isn't here, but it's on the digital projections), a digital version of the tour book, and a photo gallery. all in all this is a great release, and the extras are totally worth it if you're a fan.

Kylie Is Better Than This DVD.......2004-10-26

Coming near the end of a two year whirlwind of recording and touring, it is no surprise Kylie does not have much energy left. This DVD shows that. If you own her CDs, there is no need to spend more money on this.
If you want a SHOW, get the DVD 'Live In Sidney(On a Night Like This)'. Kylie has energy in Sydney.

Kylie is a world class performer and singer. This DVD is OK, but does not show her at her best.

Kylie's got the Fever from a big Kylie Fan!.......2002-12-09

Well what can I say, a stunning performance as always by the Princess of Pop,Kylie Minogue.She sings lots of songs from her past to the present and the stage setting was brillient and I loved the lighting and the chandeliers etc projected on a large screen.One point I must make and that is about the documentary,section 3 on the dvd of the documentary makes a grating noise,apart from that the dvd is a must have for all fans of Kylie and you must have it in your collection.
