I graduated into a crappy economy, working two part time jobs while living at home in central NJ with no friends near me at the time on top of being heartbroken by my first boyfriend. Life was going shitastically horrible. It was around this time that Kylie Minogue was performing in the US for the first time. I went to the first show in NYC and it was amazing but the magic didn't hit like the second night. My friend gave me his ticket for the second night because he knew I was an uber fan. I went by myself so I managed to get up front and center stage. I was a little quiet until the room went dark and the stage lights turn on. She started counting down for this song and during the countdown, someone lights a blunt. As soon as it did, Hammerstein Ballroom goes up in a roar. I was kind of tearing up and screaming at this point. I have never experienced anything like that in my life. I was so overwhelmed with emotion. She starts the first couple of lyrics and everyone is either crying, screaming or passing out. It was like meeting Obama and Jesus at the same time. Well, to me at least. That night changed me and my attitude towards life. This recording is the live recording of that night. To this day, when I hear it my heart pounds and I get a little teary eyed. It was the best thing I have ever experienced.
