Kylie Minogue reveals meaning of Padam
msn.comKylie Minogue feels "rejuvenated" by her major comeback. The 55-year-old pop legend is due to release her 16th studio album 'Tension' on 22 September and explained that following the success of viral hit 'Padam, Padam' - which has notched up more than 30 million views on TikTok - whilst the onomatopoeic word initially represented a heartbeat, it has actually taken on a "whole new meaning" as a greeting amongst fans all over the world.
Speaking on 'Today', she said: "I love what I do, there's always a song that hasn't been written, that hasn't been sung. There's more to share, I love my audience and I'm still able so I feel totally rejuvenated. 'Padam' has given me so much and I love the message it sends to all ages.
You don't have to be 50 and up to appreciate it, 'Padam' is talking to the kids and the long-time fans and new listeners. It was, in the song [the sound of a heartbeat], but instantly it has taken on a whole new meaning.
It's a greeting, it's a farewell, it's a 'How are you doing?'" The 'Spinning Around' hitmaker - who has sold more than 80 million records since starting her pop career in the late 1980s - also described her major resurgence as the "stuff of dreams" and hinted that she could follow in the footsteps of Celine Dion and Britney Spears with a Las Vegas residency.
