“ Finer Feelings ” is a song by Australian singer Kylie Minogue , which became the final single release from the album Let's Get to It . The single was originally supposed to be a continuation of “ Word Is Out, ” but the release was delayed after the release of “ If You Were with Me Now ”. Finer Feelings was finally released in April 1992, mixed with the duo Brothers in Rhythm (Minogue continued to collaborate with them throughout the 90s and with Steve Anderson to date). The single was one step away from the top 10, peaking at No. 11 on the UK chart . In Australia, “Finer Feelings” became her most disastrous single at that time, reaching only 60th position on the chart [1] .

Over the next eighteen years, Finer Feelings was her only single to miss the Australian Top 50 chart until Get Outta My Way climbed above 69 in 2010. A romantic video was shot by Dave Hogan, who was also the director “ What Do I Have to Do ” and “ Shocked ” [2] , in Paris in the spirit of the 1930s / 40s . “Finer Feelings” remains one of the favorite songs of the singer’s fans who performed the song during the KylieFever2002 and Showgirl: The Homecoming Tour tours, although the song was not included in her major compilation of Ultimate Kylie hits. It is worth noting that the Closer bi-side is different from the song of the same name from her 2010 album Aphrodite .
The song was re-recorded in 2011 and published on the official YouTube channel Kylie Minogue on January 25, 2012. This entry was featured on The Abbey Road Sessions .
