"Finer Feelings" is a song by Kylie Minogue. It was the final release from Let's Get to It and was actually planned as the follow-up to "Word Is Out", but was held back after the release of "If You Were with Me Now". "Finer Feelings" finally appeared in April 1992, remixed by Brothers in Rhythm, and narrowly missed out on the top ten, peaking at number eleven on the UK charts. In Australia, "Finer Feelings" became her lowest-charting single at that point, reaching just number sixty.
For the next eighteen years, it remained her only single not to chart in the ARIA top fifty until her 2010 single "Get Outta My Way" which peaked at number sixty-nine. The romantic video was once again directed by Dave Hogan ("What Do I Have to Do?", "Shocked") and shot entirely in Paris with a 1930s/40s feel. "Finer Feelings" remains a fan favourite and Minogue has performed excerpts of the song during her KylieFever2002 and Showgirl Homecoming tours although it was not included on her recent hits compilation, Ultimate Kylie. It is worth noting that the B-side "Closer" is different from the song of the same title that would appear on her 2010 album Aphrodite.
The song was re-recorded in 2011 and posted in Kylie Minogue's official YouTube channel on 25 January, 2012. It will be featured on the The Abbey Road Sessions.

Famous quotes containing the words finer and/or feelings:
“Once conform, once do what other people do because they do it, and a lethargy steals over all the finer nerves and faculties of the soul. She becomes all outer show and inward emptiness; dull, callous, and indifferent.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“... feminism is a political term and it must be recognized as such: it is political in women’s terms. What are these terms? Essentially it means making connections: between personal power and economic power, between domestic oppression and labor exploitation, between plants and chemicals, feelings and theories; it means making connections between our inside worlds and the outside world.”
—Anica Vesel Mander, U.S. author and feminist, and Anne Kent Rush (b. 1945)
