"Finer Feelings" is a song by Australian singer Kylie Minogue. It was the final release from Let's Get to It and was planned as the follow-up to "Word Is Out", but it was held back after the release of "If You Were with Me Now". "Finer Feelings" finally appeared in April 1992, remixed by Brothers in Rhythm (whom Minogue would continue collaborating with throughout the 1990s, and continued with Steve Anderson into the present), and narrowly missed out on the top 10, peaking at number 11 on the UK charts.

"Finer Feelings" on YouTube

In Australia, "Finer Feelings" reached number 60 on the ARIA Singles Chart for the week ending 5 July 1992. Excluding a re-release of "Better the Devil You Know" in 1998, "Finer Feelings" was Minogue's only single to miss the top 50 in Australia until "Get Outta My Way", which peaked at number 69 in 2010.^{[citation needed]} "Finer Feelings" remains a fan favourite,^{[citation needed]} and Minogue has performed excerpts of the song during several of her tours.

The song's B-side, "Closer", is different from the song of the same title that would appear on her 2010 album Aphrodite. "Finer Feelings" was re-recorded in 2011 and posted onto Kylie Minogue's official YouTube channel on 25 January 2012. It is featured on The Abbey Road Sessions.

Critical reception

Brittany Porter from AXS listed the track as one of her five most underrated songs.[2] Writing for Digital Spy, Nick Levine called it a "hidden gem" and stated: "At least five tunes are in contention, 'Finer Feelings' sneaks it for showing that Kylie could be sexier and more sophisticated than ever before without skimping on the chorus."[3] Music Week stated that it is Minogue "at her most mature and reflective", and added that "percussive and rhythmic accentuation are subtle rather than florid, and Kylie's vocal is amongst her best. Sweetly melancholic, and if she does now move on from PWL, it's a fine note to leave on".[4]

Music video

The music video was once again directed by Dave Hogan (who previously worked with Minogue on "What Do I Have to Do?" and "Shocked") and shot entirely in Paris with a 1930s/40s feel.

«Finer Feelings» — песня австралийской певицы Кайли Миноуг, ставшая заключительным сингловым релизом с альбома Let’s Get to It. Сингл изначально должен был стать продолжением «Word Is Out», но релиз был задержан после выпуска «If You Were with Me Now». «Finer Feelings» наконец была выпущена в апреле 1992 года, замикшированная дуэтом Brothers in Rhythm (Миноуг продолжила с ними сотрудничать в течение 90-х и со Стивом Андерсоном до настоящего времени). Сингл оказался в одном шаге от топ-10, достигнув максимума в № 11 британского чарта. В Австралии «Finer Feelings» стал её самым провальным синглом на то время, достигая только 60-й позиции в чарте[1].
