Showgirl
Showgirl on umd is great a must buy 10/10 another reason to buy a psp

Just a great show!
I was not a Kylie fan until I heard about her breast cancer and later saw some clips of this concert on the internet. I looked up the whole thing and am amazed! I love concert videos and this is one of the best produced shows I've seen, though unfortunately I wasn't able to see it live for geographic reasons. I watch the video at least once a week, usually as I'm winding down my day because it's simply enjoyable from the getgo. There is no message, no political statements (take note Madonna), just pure entertainment.
I didn't know a lot of the songs other than the singles popular in the States like Can't Get You Out of My Head (truly an attrocious song, yet extremely catchy), and the other Fever singles, so watching it for the first time really was a "First Time" hearing a great deal of Kylie's work, and this show presents it magnificently.
The show is very choreographed and glitzy, but unlike Madonna, Janet, Britney, and other tours of the like, Showgirl, or at least Kylie's part in it, isn't micromanaged and scripted down to the last second. Kylie allows herself a significant amount of freelance, occassionally joining her dancers. Most people say attribute this to her singing live, which is most likely true. With regard to her vocals, there are crisp, and impressive considering her limited abilities -- she makes the most of what she has. However, an echo at the tail end of long and/or high notes leads me to believe that she's getting a little bit of help with some difficult parts. This could simply be an effect of mixing video and audio separately.
My enjoyment of this show encouraged me to look up other Kylie tours, and I must say that I wasn't as impressed with On a Night Like This, and sorely disappointed with the Fever Tour. On a Night Like This was a little too kitchy, and Fever seemed to be completely disjointed from one part to the next, and she just got lost in all that "stuff". She got it right though with Showgirl, and dispensed with the kitch and camp. This show is almost entirely kitch and camp free, replaced with a very classy feel.
As I already said, I wasn't very familiar with the bulk of Kylie's material prior to purchasing this tour, but have very quickly come to love a great deal of it. My favorite performances were Better the Devil You Know (just an anthemic song), the Shocked/What Do I have To Do Medley/Spinning Around medley (pure fun), Confide in Me (powerful song with excellent choreography, now my favorite Kylie song), Hand on Your Heart, and Your Disco Needs You (again pure fun), but those are just a very slight edge above the rest, and were hard to pick. I could have lived without Slow as I just don't care for the song and the performance is very, well, slow. Other than that, this is a fabulous concert and DVD. I hope she didn't lose the feel of the original when she redid the show after undergoing her cancer treatment. Four stars from this American, Kylie. Come visit us some time, you have more fans here than you think.

Quality from begining to end
This is a superb disc both on the basis of content and technical quality. Even if you aren't a Kylie devotee the sheer class of this concert will keep you riveted. The sound quality is very high too.
