Love At First Sight
Kylie Minogue/Nick Cave Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thought that I was going crazy
Just havin' one those days, yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you

And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out to fill up the sky
The music you were playin' really blew my mind
It was love at first sight

'Cause baby, when I heard you
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one

I was tired of running out of luck
Thinkin' 'bout giving up, yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you

And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out to fill up the sky
The music you were playin' really blew my mind
It was love at first sight

'Cause baby, when I heard you (when I heard you)
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one (to be as one)

'Cause baby, when I heard you
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one

Everythin' went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky (up the sky)
The music you were playin' really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
Love at first sight
Love at first sight
Love
Ooh, it was love, it was love at first sight

'Cause baby, when I heard you (when I heard you)
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one (to be as one)

'Cause baby, when I heard you (when I heard)
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one

It was love, it was love, it was love, it was love




Ooh, it was love, it was love, it was love, it was love
Ooh, it was love, it was love, it was love, it was love

2 decades after its release yet this song still sounds so fresh and so current. A timeless classic.

@kominion

It’s such a catchy song 💚 also might have something to do with 90’s style dance beats becoming popular again, and people feeling nostalgic for the early 2000’s.

@nikkili8944

Ikr!?! I can't believe it's already been 20 years since this song was released. It still sounds fresh and contemporary. How time flies...

@nikkili8944

@@kominion It's kinda cool that this kind of pop music makes a comeback. When this song was released I was 12, in early middle school. It really brings back lovely memories. I've been on a 2000's pop music binge lately. Listening to the songs I grew up to in my teenage years makes these dreary days more bearable.

@alexanderbanman9288

Agreed.

This song and video was ahead of its time. Her outfit style can still pass as fashionable in 2023.

@stanbalo

Yes and what she wore here is the ultimate. Women are wearing cargo pants in a sexy way lately but Kylie perfected it here. She wore another version of this in her tour but still this look in the video cannot be topped.

@pykemid3954
