Kylie Minogue's most-streamed songs: Official Top 40
Kylie Minogue is the undisputed Princess of Pop; an adopted cultural icon of the UK and one of the most chameleonic forces ever seen in the music sphere.
Now, the superstar returns with pulsating new synth-pop cut Padam Padam; the first solo single lifted from her upcoming 16th studio album Tension, set to be released September 22.
So, to celebrate, we thought we'd crunch the numbers to reveal Kylie's Official Top 40 most-streamed songs in the UK for the first time ever; from the trajectory-shifting Spinning Around to '80s-tinged track Say Something.
See where all of Kylie Minogue's hit songs and albums have charted in the UK here.
But, before we get into the full Top 40, let's take a closer look at Kylie's Official Top 10 most-streamed songs as they stand in 2023:
10. Kids (with Robbie Williams)
Released: 2000
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 2
Total UK streams: 11 million
Won't someone think of the children? Kylie, ascendant on a post-Spinning Around high, teamed up with Britain's best pop bad boy for a raunchy anthem all about getting up to get down, as well Kylie's very valid flex that she's been dropping beats since back in black (that's AC/DC, not Amy Winehouse).
9. Better The Devil You Know
Released: 1990
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 2
Total UK streams: 12.1 million
One of the most important songs in Kylie's career, Better The Devil You Know was one of the last victory laps with Stock Aitken Waterman, and its vampy, campy music video full of fire and little black dresses (maybe her best video ever?) pushed Kylie further into a more mature sphere. Here's where the girl next door began to grow up.
8. The Loco-Motion
Released: 1987
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 2
Total UK streams: 12.4 million
Come on, you know the moves. Don't pretend you don't.
7. Say Something
Released: 2020
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 56
Total UK streams: 13 million
Say something, say anything. Kylie's plea for intimacy in a time of social disconnect became one of the bright lights of lockdown, and a mid-career highlight for our Disco queen.
6. All The Lovers
Released: 2010
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 3
Total UK streams: 15 million
Proving that no-one does a comeback quite like Kylie, she side-stepped some of the disappointment of X to return at full strength with All The Lovers, whose intense and passionate production courtesy of Stuart Price really makes you feel everything Kylie is preaching.

5. Dancing
Released: 2018
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 38
Total UK streams: 21.1 million
The lead track from Golden, Dancing represented another surprising left-of-centre turn for Kylie, trading in her gold hot pants for some Daisy Dukes as she went country. Well, not full country, Dancing is still classic Kylie, proving that whatever turns her career takes, she'll still have one eye on the dancefloor.
4. Spinning Around
Released: 2000
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 1
Total UK streams: 21.6 million
Quite simply one of the most inspired comeback tracks ever released, Kylie ended years in the pop wilderness with one of her strongest-ever statements. Originally recorded by Paula Abdul (!) for an album that never materialised, it was re-tooled by Kylie as her reintroduction to the dancefloor she had fled in Impossible Princess. And it was so nice to welcome to her home.
3. Love At First Sight
Released: 2002
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 2
Total UK streams: 22 million
One of many hits from Kylie's resurgent Fever record, Love At First Sight has proved to be a timeless record, a nu-disco classic that was serving Future Nostalgia long before dreams of pop stardom were even glinting in Dua Lipa's eye.
2. Can't Get You Out Of My Head
Released: 2001
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 1
Total UK streams: 57 million
Can't Get You Out Of My Head still (and probably always will) sounds like the future. A hypnotic synth-pop track, Kylie's defining song may have come nearly two decades into her career - and been pitched to everyone from S Club 7 to Sophie Ellis-Bextor - but no-one could have mastered this moment like her. Taking the sex appeal of her early years, to the fantastically outré flourishes of albums like Impossible Princess and sanding it down with an impossibly shiny pop sheen, Can't Get You Out Of My Head has endured as one of the most memorable pop hooks of the 21st century.
1. Santa Baby
Released: 2000
Official Singles Chart peak: Number 31
Total UK streams: 74 million
Damn you Christmas! Originally released as a B-side in 2000, Kylie's camp take on the Eartha Kitt festive classic was repackaged for her (more successful than you may believe) Kylie Christmas record, and as much benefits massively from year-on-year streams every time winter rolls around.

Christmas songs are always ahead... even when they were never big hits...
Streaming is a joke and this list once again prooves that.
Blank
'At Christmas' her 16th most streamed song without ever hitting the top 100!. Mental
Hadrian Embalsado
I still can't believe Santa Baby is NUMBER ONE!
Jack fitsy
She's the pinnacle of inoffensive mediocrity & leading the way is Kylie Minogue. I swear her last few albums had about as much depth as a washing bowl. Shes just churning them out.
The only thing keeping her afloat are the core UK crowd who fell in love with Neighbours back in the late 80's. This new single is about as vacuous as it gets, probably why she snapped it up. After 2 decades in the bottom of the charts, this is probably her last stab at commercial success. She may well find it. And if the banal tunes weren't bad enough, like Beyonce, another community leach, she thanks her gay fans by playing private gigs for royalty in Dubai. Dont they hang gays there??I guess its all about the tacky pink coin. And this song is aimed squarely at them 😬
S. W
You are seriously deluded. And just a nasty, bitter guy. Lol. 3 number 1 albums in the last 5 years.. yeah.. mediocre 😂.. she's sold more than most female singers even recently. You talk utter nonsense. 🤷
Jack fitsy
3 number 1's Lol???? The only reason her last 2 studio albums peaked at number 1, were because of clever manipulative marketing and luck! The amount of formats released for Golden & Disco were mind numbing. 21 variations of Disco. She isnt that popular in the UK. Her sales come from a core fan base.
Jason Lindley
All artists release multiple formats even your lovely Madonna. Talk about another deluded madonna fan who have nothing better to do pmsl.
Jack fitsy
There are multiple formats hun, then there are reams of cash coining formats. 21 variations of 1 album.... seriously?! Lol
O
Oliverx
Like Jack said, there's a vast difference between multiple formats and large reams of them. Her fans act as if she's beloved by everyone in the UK, but the reality is it's her obsessive fans snapping up each and every format to get her to #1 so they can boast during stan wars. So pathetic. lol
GagasPancakeT!ts
Here we go with the deflection. When has Madonna released 20 different variations of the same album? I'll wait.
O
Oliverx
I doubt Kylie would even get a #1 album if it weren't for months upon months of pre-orders, various formats, ect. Imagine if she announced it a month in advance without all the variations, it wouldn't even amass 10,000 in the first week. lmao.

Chart and always have been about manipulation to get your artist/song the highest position possible, especially in the front-loaded 90's and beyond. Core fanbase is usually enough to secure a top 10 hit (album) these days even for the ancient acts (those that debuted in the 20th century).
Blank
In one country, or worldwide? If you count worldwide, almost every album in her entire career has had at least 100 different versions. Look at Discogs if you don't believe me.
Blank
A fanbase is enough to get to #1 these days. Dropping out straight from #1 happens quite frequently (Courteeners, Enter Shikari, Lottery Winners and Ellie Goulding have all dropped out of the top 75 from #1 this year alone: 2 of them straight out of the top 100). An unheard-of event in the physical era that shows it's the fanbase buying them. Not to mention the many more #2s that did the same, or other #1s that failed to reach a 3rd week in the top 75 or 4th in the top 100. What you state that Kylie does, thinking it is rare and almost unique to her, is common right across the board, but particularly common for heritage acts. Depeche Mode, U2 and Pink Floyd all having new top 3 hits have less than 4 weeks in the top 100 this year to name a few.
Blank
As is the case with almost every heritage act to have a hit in the streaming era. I gave you the tip of an iceberg in my previous comment. Don't expect Madonna to be any different if she releases anything this decade. It's just the way it is now. 15 formats plus album bundles is not uncommon.
Jack fitsy
Not if they dont stream
Jason Lindley
This just tells me how streams don’t mean much. They have ruined the charts. Padam Padam deserves to be a massive hit for Kylie so she can shine light on the ageism of streaming. Also I thought Got to be certain would have been on the list.
C
Cloudbuster
This nonsense needs to stop. All I've heard over the past few weeks is "Kylie deserves this", "Kylie deserves that", but the question is, why, when she isn't the only female artist affected by ageism. She's had 3 #1 albums since 2018, so what more do you want? I don't see you screaming "ageism" when any other female artist over 50 releases new music, just Kylie, and we all know why.

Paul Mount
Streams really mean nothing in the scheme of things or as a way of assessing popularity. They have rendered the whole concept of the chart quite meaningless.
Jay1988
Thank you for this list! Kylie doesn't have a track called 'Hot in the City' though. Is that New York City from 2019?
