London, Feb 27 (IANS) Popular singer Kylie Minogue thinks about retiring at the end of every tour, but says she can never take a break for longer than a few months before the urge to make music strikes again.

The 42-year-old, who is dating Spanish model Andres Velencoso, said: ‘Do I think of retiring? Absolutely. I say that at the end of every tour. And then something happens a few months down the line and I start thinking of songs and getting that itch. What can I say? I’m addicted.’

Kylie never expected her career to last as long as it has, but predicts she will still be performing in 20 years, reports contactmusic.com

‘When I was 20, there was no way I could see myself touring at 43. I have a terrible feeling I’ll be saying the same in 20 years time.’

She says her current Aphrodite-Les Folies tour will be her best yet, though it has been very expensive.

‘There were a few coronaries over the cost but I’ve been touring for 20 years and I want this to be the most fantastic show ever. This is me completely pushing the boat out.’
