I absolutely love it though

Fantastic choice as 3rd single and it should have been the 2nd single instead of the disapointing get outta my way.

As much as I love her Nerina Pallot penned tracks, the more I listen to them the more I just hear Nerina and wished she'd just recorded it instead.

Interesting choice of single.

Nerina recorded BTT first - it appears on her Buckminster Fuller EP - I prefer her version.

I only like 3 songs on the album (so disappointed with it) and Better Than Today is one of them. Great song, really catchy.

Seriously?! Couldn't possibly point me in the direction of a download could you?

Did she do Aphrodite too?

I would have liked Aphrodite or Too Much, but fair play to Kylie.

This is my least fave track on a brilliant album, I'm pretty disappointed she's releasing this. I really wanted Aphrodite as 3rd single

I actually quite like this track.

Ok,its a bit of a cheesy anthem but probably perfect for the Christmas party market hence why its coming out now.

Same here. Aphrodite the song is fantastic. I don't know it would have been a huge hit though (GOMW wasn't the hit I was hoping/expecting it would be either )

Better Than Today has been my favourite song from the album since my first listen. It just grabbed me right away and still hasn't let go - never fails to brighten my mood if I play it.

I really hope the single does well. It deserves to, because it's quality as far as catchy pop music goes.

Cant seem this performing well for her. Seems a bit of an odd choice.

Well the usual formula's not working so she may as well take a risk. Hope she doesn't do the X-factor. I think that show has devalued the whole Minogue brand.

I like the song, but I didn't expect it to be released as a single.

First heard this song just over a month ago playing in the background of Audrey's Salon in Coronation Street, great tune

Oh no I don't like this song! It gets skipped every time onmy ipod. I cant stand the intro and kylie's voice almost sounds like a caricature of her normal voice. I was surprised GOMW didnt do that well. I was hoping the next single would be Aphrodite, Put Your Hands Up or Illusion. Maybe Aphrodite will be the next again single

Forgot to say i watched the original version and it's far better, it sounds better in that style as opposed to the more dancey kylie version

Yep...cupid boy and aphrodite should have been the next singles.......this song sounds so scissor sisters -alike and there sound is flopping ...so i think this may be another one week in the top 20 hit.....

I was going to say the same thing! It sounds similar to pop songs from 5 years ago. I'm a bit suprised that they will release this. This is also my least favourite song from the album; they should have released Illusion, cupid boy, too much or even aphrodite instead.
