Gotye‘s Making Mirrors is perched at #3 on the ARIA albums chart this week while Kimbra‘s own Vows slides to #8. ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ has also gone #1 in Netherlands and New Zealand. If it remains at #1 this time next week, it’d be an equal tie with ‘Truly Madly Deeply’ which reigned for eight consecutive weeks at #1. ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ is now the longest staying #1 ARIA single by an Aussie artist since Savage Garden‘s ‘Truly Madly Deeply’ in 1997.

As y’all know, I don’t usually care to report on serial #1 space invaders but when they clock a major milestone, it’s only polite to acknowledge and golf clap. Gotye and Kimbra‘s ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ is once again on the edge of chart-defining glory. I think as gay men, we sometimes forget Ricki-Lee‘s fan base extends beyond the reaches of poppers and Oxford Street.įlip the page and change the scene, the singer’s now back with a different attitude and a more universally-embraceable message in ‘All We Need is Love’ – and she did it all without compromising her commitment to making radio-ready dance tunes. I will always back her as an artist and grown woman to do whatever the fuck she wants with her art, but that video didn’t do her any favours with her younger fans and their parents.

Needless to say, the comments on social media were less than savoury, most amusing of which were from #TeamWontSomebodyThinkofTheKids.įor the record, I really enjoyed the video and single. The lascivious clip saw Ricki-Lee riding stark naked on a white horse through a nightclub and baring her breasts smeared in gold paint.

This is a new angle for the fierce singer who only eight months ago tripped a viper’s nest of moralists with her risqué video for ‘Come and Get In Trouble with Me’. Aussie pop siren Ricki-Lee reveals a softer side in her blissed out new single ‘All We Need is Love’.
