Legacy
Kylie Minogue's initial successes in various worldwide markets, particularly in Europe were not sustained by 1990 but she remained consistently popular in her homeland of Australia and even more so in her production base, the UK.
In the UK "Step Back in Time", it is considered, marked the beginning of a popular backlash against her new "raunch" image amongst her initial demographic of young teenagers. In the annual Smash Hits Poll 1990, a popular teen music magazine which avidly supported the star, Minogue won several "worst" awards for such crimes ranging from her fashion sense to her recent musical output. Although her music, still produced by UK producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman, was not radically removed from her previous output, her recent change of image, for the time being it seemed, was to lose her more popular support than she was to gain, most notably with hindsight, an increasing gay following due to a more dance-pop orientation.
