In 1989, Kylie Minogue was rapidly climbing the ladder of success with a series of mega-hits. The official video recording her first performance in Japan has been decided to be released. Her first performance in Japan was in October 1989. The previous year, in 1988, they had been scheduled to participate in a certain music event, but due to the deterioration of Emperor Showa's condition, the whole of Japan was in a mood to refrain from attending. The event itself has been cancelled. Then, in 1989, the era name was changed. Kylie's first world tour "MEGA DISCO in DREAM '89" with DEAD OR ALIVE and Sinita was realized, and Japan was chosen as the kickoff location. The highlight performance of their first visit to Japan was "October 6, 1989: Tokyo Dome". This show was compiled and released as “ON THE GO: LIVE IN JAPAN” at the time. After that, it is a phantom video work that has been out of print without being officially released on DVD. First, let's check the show's position in the memorable first visit to Japan schedule. ・October 2nd: Nagoya Rainbow Hall ・October 6th: Tokyo Dome [This work] ・October 7th: Osaka Castle Hall ・October 8th: Osaka Castle Hall A total of 4 performances. As mentioned above, Japan is the kick-off location for their first tour. It was also her second performance since her first time on the world stage. This work, which records such a show, is literally official. Although the footage is from the analog era, it is a little dark by modern standards, but the sound and camera work are of major quality, befitting the star of her time. The content depicted with such quality is amazing. In fact, Kylie herself produced this film. The concept is half concert footage and half tour documentary. Although it includes all the songs from the show, there are plenty of rehearsals, offstage scenes, and moving scenes, as well as interviews and interactions with fans. It is designed so that you can meet ``21-year-old Kylie'' not only on stage, but in total. In fact, it's the process of creating it that's fun. The main show is also gorgeous and full of major-class quality, and Kylie, accompanied by backup dancers, is excited and shouts "Ichi Ni Sun Sea!" for the first time in her first stage show. The songs are full of playfulness, such as ``The Locomotion,'' which appears on a toy train, ``Made In Heaven,'' which is reminiscent of the era when aerobics was a big hit, and ``Got To Be Certain,'' which exudes health and beauty. Kylie, who is having fun in the middle, is sexy, but her innocent smile shines through. All the songs are worth watching, like live clips, but the one that's a little more interesting is "Je Ne Sais Pas Porquoi." The costumes and choreography of the backing dancers are reminiscent of Michael Jackson, but the middle part is even more heart-warming. Perhaps due to a mistake in the choreography, the song continued even after Kylie left the microphone, making it difficult to make out the lip sync. It's natural to follow up right away without panicking, but there's also a hint of a cool bubble in the fact that they use misplaced scenes regardless of the fact that it's an official video. What's even more interesting about the times is the off-scenes. Between the songs, there are plenty of scenes of Kylie getting excited about her first world tour. At the rehearsal, she appeared without makeup and held a birthday party for the staff on a chartered Shinkansen. When she goes out on the town, she dances with Japanese fans at the temple grounds, and is surrounded by high school students on a school trip who ask for autographs (the high school students' "Wow, it's Kylie!" is very graphic). On the Shinkansen platform, I dance with the station staff. Not only that, but Kylie's playful feelings can be seen from every corner of this work. As mentioned above, she herself produced this work. In the city, Japanese signboards that I've never seen before (nostalgic) are shown one after another, and images of crowds waving the national flag in front of the Imperial Palace, kabuki, festivals, and high school baseball players appear. All of them are Japan as seen through her eyes, and the year 1989 is engraved on them all. Furthermore, I dressed in Japanese clothes and said, ``Maybe I should wear it on stage,'' and I learned how to make hand-rolled sushi from a Japanese woman with full shoulder pads. He also talked about the movie he first appeared in, ``Running in Love (Derinkenz)'', and some scenes were used in it. Just as I was thinking about this, during the Tokyo Dome construction scene, I seriously inspected the site and guided the camera around. She also seems to be working on stage productions, and there she is, enjoying her career while ambitiously tackling various fields. This was the moment when Kylie took off on the world stage. That gorgeous show alone is the best, but more than that, it is packed with Japan itself in the first year of Heisei. Kylie is an innocent person who can't help but enjoy everything she sees, and Japan has entered a new era with her. This is an entertaining work where you can encounter both. This is a particularly moving piece, especially now that the Heisei era is coming to an end. Live at Tokyo Dome, Tokyo, Japan 6th October 1989 PRO-SHOT 1. Intro 2. Hand On Your Heart 3. Interview 4.
