"Galaxy" was written by Australian singer-songwriter Sia but was not included on any of her albums. It was later presented to Minogue by Sia's manager while she was looking for recording studios in Los Angeles.
Dannii said the song was "classic Sia" with "huge vocal with beautiful melodies" and that she was "feeling the joy and happiness" of it and "could see why this wouldn't go with what Sia was doing" as her album features "really moody" lyrics. Minogue also said that the experience of sending her version to Sia was "nerve-wrecking" but the songwriter "really liked it".
The single announcement was made on Minogue's Instagram profile on 3 November along with the artwork. On the same day, pre-order links for the songs were made available on all major digital music services.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lonesome light years tethered tears
Pull me near and I will have no fear
And in the darkness i fall in love
And in your arms i'm safe from harm
Your current sets me free
You are my galaxy a star struck heart beat
I'm bound by your gravity you are my galaxy
You are my galaxy
Powers up and we are one
Can you feel the love and the midnight sun
Feel no g force weightless our
Web is spun thy will be done
Your current sets me free
I'm feeling your electricity
You are my galaxy a star struck heart beat
I'm bound by your gravity you are my galaxy
You are my galaxy
In the night sky you and I
Buried in dust just us
Pulling me in your solar system
Clusters of lust just us
And the universe alters it's course
We make what matters disperse disperse
In the night sky you and I
You and I you and I
Your current sets me free
I'm feeling your electricity
You are my galaxy a star struck heart beat
I'm bound by your gravity you are my galaxy
You are my galaxy
Aaah i’m feeling your electricity
You are my galaxy a star struck heart beat
I'm bound by your gravity you are my galaxy
You are my galaxy aaah
