Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram – “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” was released 20 years ago (!!) this week, which means it’s also a very important 20th anniversary for me: finding my first gay pop diva as an adult. Obviously I loved Madonna, Janet, and Cyndi growing up, but becoming a Kylie Minogue fan was so completely unexpected to me at that time, a riot grrrl/Toriphile who mostly liked music that made me want to rage or cry (which is a very good thing too!). I don’t really know how to write about music, so I won’t try, but CGYOOMH is just such an absolutely perfect song, and Fever is a perfect album from start to finish, every song is a 100% banger, and it opened a new (or new again) world to me of wanting to dance and feel sexy and iconic. Like, I really don’t know how a tiny Australian pop princess made a fat Pasadena, CA femme lesbian in her thrifted men’s slacks era feel positively oozing with raw sexuality just the way she was, but Kylie did that for me. What a time! What a gift! #femmefriday #cgyoomh20 #kyliefever | Posted on 10/Sep/2021 23:44:27
