About this song
- “Limbo” is a song by Kylie Minogue, taken from her sixth studio album, Impossible Princess. It was written by Kylie alongside David Ball and Ingo Vauk, who also produced the track. Before the release of Impossible Princess, Kylie had handpicked "Limbo" as the lead single for the album; DeConstruction were horrified with the idea of such a dark hardcore dance track as the presentation card for the album, and persuaded Kylie to extend the recording sessions, getting her to work with James Dean Bradfield; this resulted in the track "Some Kind of Bliss" being chosen for the lead. However, “Limbo” did appear as the B-side to the lead single, alongside “Love Takes Over Me”. Minogue wrote the song by herself while vacationing in Barcelona, Spain. She said she was upset most of the time because she could not see anyone outside of Spain due to bureaucracy law. She felt she was trapped the entire time and the title derived from her constant use of the term 'limbo' while she was there. The vocals on the track were demo cuts she recorded for the song, but used them because she felt the "gritty" delivery worked with the sound. .
