Impossible Princess
The article about Kylie Minogue's 1998 album is currently listed as a Good Article. It recently went through a peer review and a copy-edit. -- Underneath-it-All 00:05, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Otherwise it looks good. Recurring dreams 08:08, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * At first Minogue had a hard time embracing her past, looking back on it as a time of pain and confused embarrassment.[12] Confronting her past and her embarrassment helped her improve her confidence. Little too much repetition.
 * After a set of lyrics were completed, she would record a quick, one-take vocal demo and then evaluate the song's potential.[7] What's a one-take vocal demo?
 * Maybe some mention of the Intimate and Live tour outside the singles section, considering that was a concert tour promoting the album. Maybe some mention of any other concerts/tours supporting the release of the album.
 * I've made some changes to the sentences based on your suggestions above. -- Underneath-it-All 19:05, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Then I support. Recurring dreams 10:32, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment Minor oppose &mdash; The article seems fine overall. The one concern I had is that it never explains why the album was a commercial disappointment. Based on all of the positive acclaim it should have done better. So why didn't it? (I could speculate, but I'd rather read the facts.) There also seems to be little or nothing about U.S. sales. Was it never exported outside of a handful of countries? Thanks. &mdash; RJH (talk) 19:56, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The album was never released in North America because Minogue did not have a distribution deal there. -- Underneath-it-All 20:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, to be clear: I think these needs to be covered in the article in order to satisfy the "comprehensiveness" criteria for an FA. &mdash; RJH (talk) 22:05, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
 * It is stated in the critical response section in a quote from a Billboard review, but I am not sure where to insert this detail. -- Underneath-it-All 22:11, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
