Three record labels later, And Danni has yet to get a clue. Your sister may have been able to achieve success with limited talent, and poor stage presence…But you can’t, Hell you’re not even as like-able.
Dannii had some great songs on her last album like Put The Needle On It. If the music scene in the US were different, not nearly as much hip-hop she would be big here.
Her last album was a great pop/dance album, I agree that if lame hip/hop/rap was not dominating here, the Minogue sisters would be successful here, they make good pop music. Kylie has GREAT stage presence, her LIVE shows are amazing, you should check out her Fever Live, and her Live From Sydney DVD’s.
