Re-recorded in April 1988 and
re-titled ‘The Loco-motion’, Kylie’s debut Australian
hit shot to No.2 on its week of release giving her the record
for the highest entry on the U.K. singles charts by a female artist,
a record previously held by Madonna.
‘The Loco-motion’ reached No.3 on the U.S. Billboard
charts with sales in excess of 1/2 million and made No.1 in Canada,
giving Kylie three simultaneous No.1’s internationally.
The video for ‘The Loco-motion’ was made up of footage
re-edited from the original Australian release. |
