Robbie Williams & Kylie Minogue
Kids

THE REVIEW

One of the most successful duets ever in the history of international pop music.

Two music giants: a boy, Robbie Williams, prince of pop with millions of records sold, with a long story to tell before and after Take That, but also the savoir-faire, the physique, the class, and also the voice; a girl, Kylie Minogue, who started in the '80s in search of a discographic rebirth after some dark moments, gritty, sexy, dynamic, with a beautiful voice.

In short, these are the ingredients in the mythical duet of the year 2000 of the piece "Kids" written indeed in collaboration by Robbie and Kylie with the help of Guy Chambers, Robbie's collaborator; the single was released in the summer of 2000 and was the third single from Kylie's "Light Years," but also the second single from Robbie's "Millennium," released during that time.

A worldwide success, everyone was only talking about them, about their chemistry, about this explosive couple.

The song seems like a simple pop tune, but in reality, combined with Robbie's great rock energy and Kylie's sexy voice, it is a mixture of sounds and energy.

The video, splendid and very well-received, features both artists in sparkling outfits, elegant choreographies, but also provocative messages like the final scene where both enter a pool naked to drink champagne... to toast the song's success?

One thing to mention, during the video shooting and recording of "Kids" in the studio, something sparked between Robbie and Kylie, a quick infatuation, a flirt: but who cares about that.

It's enough to hear their voices and see their video together that managed to convey emotion, energy, and grit to us.
