It just keeps getting better and better! The official audio for “This Wheel’s On Fire” by the gayest icon of them all Kylie Minogue, for the gayest movie of all time Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie Soundtrack is here. The movie is out July 1 in the UK and July 22 in the States. Take a listen to it below- it’s got a throbbing sort of bounciness that I really like.
The Sun reports that it was recorded in a “secret studio session,” as Ab Fab creator Jennifer Saunders wanted to “keep her involvement under wraps.”
“This Wheel’s On Fire” was originally written by Bob Dylan and The Band’s Rick Danko, but it was Julie Driscoll and Brian Auger who made it a psychedelic Top 5 hit in the UK in 1968. It’s that version that subsequently came to be used (in re-recorded form) in the AbFab opening credits throughout the early-to-mid ’90s.
Siouxsie and the Banshees, of course, also did a version that remains my personal fave.
