In the 28th edition of FIERCE Pop + Rock 🔥🤘 (2023), we explore 🎵 “Padam Padam” performed by 🎙 Kylie Minogue.

“Padam, padam, I hear it and I know / Padam, padam, I know you wanna take me home.”  Oh, snap 🫰, 🎙 Kylie Minogue! The Australian pop superstar made quite a buzz with the release of her fierce single,  🎵 “Padam Padam”, an instant Pride anthem! Minogue doesn’t say any dirty words on “Padam Padam,” but the what’s implied is “not that innocent” to quote another pop artist, 🎙 Britney Spears. “Padam” was produced by 🎛 LOSTBOY, who co-wrote the track alongside 🎼 ✍ Ina Wroldsen. What exactly is the padam? Why the heartbeat!

The chorus, the centerpiece, excerpted above, continues as follows:

“Padam, and get to know me close

Padam, padam, when your heart goes

Padam, padam, I hear it and I know

Padam, padam, I know you wanna take me home

Padam, and take off all my clothes

Padam, padam, when your heart goes ‘padam’.”

Self-explanatory lyrics, right? Sex, sex, sex…

The verses, of course, preface the act.  In the first verse, Minogue has “Shivers and butterflies / I get the shivers when I look into your eyes / And I can tell that you’re all in / ‘Cause I can hear your heart beatin’.” Ooh wee! Notably, in the second verse, she ups the ante: “Wanna see what’s under that T-shirt.” WOO! Kylie Minogue delivered a surefire electronic dance/pop bop with 🎵 “Padam Padam”.
