Amazon.co.uk Review
Taken from the opening night of Kylie Minogue's rescheduled 'Showgirl' tour, Showgirl Homecoming is, to all intents and purposes, a live (and slightly updated version) of 2004's Great Hits collection, Ultimate Kylie. This being her first show since successfully battling cancer, Kylie of course pulls out all the stops to make the Sydney date – and the rest of the tour of course - a formidable comeback statement. The 25 tracks here pretty much cover all the key points in Kylie's career - good as well as bad: "Better The Devil You Know", "Spinning Around", "I Believe In You", "Locomotion", "I Should Be So Lucky", "Hand On Your Heart", "Can't Get You Out Of My Head", "Kids" (with a guest appearance from Bono), are just some of the many gems included. It's true that the earlier material (especially from the Stock Aitken & Waterman days) sounds horribly dated even when performed live, but Kylie manages to glide through it all with the kind of sass and style you'd expect from a reborn 21st Century Queen Of Pop. Welcome back Kylie... --Danny McKenna

I first bought this CD just after seeing Kylie Live in January 2007. My first live concert ever. I'd seen parts of the original showgirl concert before, but never expected the show to be as good as what it actually was. The sheer excitement in the arena was amazing, and you can actually feel that on this live album. The thunderous applaud at the beginning is just like the standing ovation Kylie recieved at the actual show I attended, before bursting into Better The Devil You Know. Never since have I seen a standing ovation in a concert. Her voice is crisp and strong on this tour, miles better than the Showgirl Tour, infact it's sort of like on the Fever Tour, for anybody reading this who has bought that DVD. The music is awesome, and the setlist is superb. Dreams being the absolute stand-out on the album, along with the new track White Diamond. Kylie at her best. Amazing raw-sounding live album.

I went to see Kylie at Wembley Arena last week and this album brilliantly captures the atmosphere of her live concert.
If you want to experience Kylie at her best get this album. It has all the hits and a couple of real suprises which I won't spoil by giving them away.
If you were lucky enough to see her, this is a great memento of the concert, if not, it'll show you what you missed!
Brilliant.

This album is great. I saw the tour recently and it was amazing and this live album puts you straight back there. Kylie is on form and the new song 'White Diamond' is stunning, completely Kylie, very catchy and is bound to be a big hit.
If you like Kylie this album is for you.
Welcome back Kylie.
