Born and raised in Melbourne, Minogue first achieved recognition starring in the Australian soap opera Neighbours, playing tomboy mechanic Charlene Robinson. She gained prominence as a recording artist in the late 1980s and released four bubblegum and dance-pop-influenced studio albums produced by Stock Aitken Waterman. By the early 1990s, she had amassed several top ten singles in the UK and Australia, including "I Should Be So Lucky", "The Loco-Motion", "Hand on Your Heart", and "Better the Devil You Know". Taking more creative control over her music, Minogue signed with Deconstruction Records in 1993 and released Kylie Minogue (1994) and Impossible Princess (1997), both of which received positive reviews. She returned to mainstream dance-oriented music with 2000's Light Years, including the number-one hits "Spinning Around" and "On a Night Like This". The follow-up, Fever (2001), was an international breakthrough for Minogue, becoming her best-selling album to date. Two of its singles, "Love at First Sight" and "In Your Eyes", became hits, but its lead single, "Can't Get You Out of My Head" became one of the most successful singles of the 2000s, selling over five million units.
Minogue continued reinventing her image and experimenting with a range of genres on her subsequent albums, which spawned successful singles such as "Slow", "2 Hearts", "All the Lovers", "Santa Baby", "Timebomb" and "Dancing". With her 2020 album DISCO, she became the first female artist to have a chart-topping album in the UK for five consecutive decades. Minogue made her film debut in The Delinquents (1989) and portrayed Cammy in Street Fighter (1994). She has also appeared in the films Moulin Rouge! (2001), Jack & Diane, Holy Motors (2012) and San Andreas (2015). In 2014, she appeared as a judge on the third series of The Voice UK and The Voice Australia. Her other ventures include product endorsements, children's books, fashion, and charitable work.
Minogue was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the 2008 New Year Honours for services to music. She was appointed by the French government as a Chevalier (knight) of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for her contribution to the enrichment of French culture. In 2005, while Minogue was on tour, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was awarded an honorary Doctor of Health Science (D.H.Sc.) degree by Anglia Ruskin University in 2011 for her work in raising awareness for breast cancer. At the 2011 ARIA Music Awards, she was inducted by the Australian Recording Industry Association into the ARIA Hall of Fame. She was appointed Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) in the 2019 Australia Day Honours.

[+ both Kylie and Jason singing]
[1a:]
You have got to believe me
*I would never deceive you
*I would never let you go
*Don't talk about leavin'
You were never at home
When I called you on the phone, and
I'm taken for a fool
Don't talk about romance
Talk about last dance
[1b:]
+Don't talk about love
+Like it is a fashion
+Love without true passion
+Are we really still in love
+And all I wanna do
+Is make you mine, mine, mine
[CHORUS:]
+All I really wanna do
+Is make you so, so happy
+All I really wanna do
+Is make you smile
+We can't go talking
+This over and over
+And all I wanna do
+Is make you mine
[2:]
+Don't let's take it for granted
+You still wanna be wanted
+All we ever do is fight
+Talk about leavin'
+Each other behind
+Don't talk about love
+Like it has not meaning
+Love without true feeling
+Are we really so alone
+'Cause all I wanna do
+Is make you mine, mine, mine

The song All I Wanna Do by Kylie Minogue Feat. Jason Donovan is about a couple who are going through some rough times in their relationship. In the first verse, Kylie is pleading with her partner, asking them to believe in her and not to leave her. She's tired of being made a fool of and wants them to talk about their last dance, not their romantic future. She questions whether their love has any true passion, and only wants to make her partner happy and smile.
In the second verse, Kylie urges her partner not to take their relationship for granted and to recognize that they both still want to be wanted. She's tired of constantly fighting and wants to move forward, not behind. She questions if their love has any true meaning and feeling and asks if they are truly alone. All she wants is to make her partner hers and move past their troubles.

You have got to believe me
I would never deceive you and I would never let you go. Don't talk about leaving me here.
You were never at home when I called you on the phone, and I'm taken for a fool. Don't talk about romance, talk about last dance.
You never answer when I call you and I feel foolish for still loving you. Let's not focus on love, let's enjoy what little time we have left together.
Don't talk about love like it is a fashion. Love without true passion, are we really still in love? And all I want to do is make you mine, mine, mine.
Don't treat love like it's trendy and superficial. If we don't have genuine passion, are we even still in love? All I want is to be with you forever.
All I really want to do is make you so, so happy. All I really want to do is make you smile. We can't go talking this over and over, and all I want to do is make you mine.
All I want is to see you happy and make you smile. Let's not keep talking about our problems, let's just focus on being together and making it work.
Don't let's take it for granted, you still want to be wanted. All we ever do is fight, talk about leaving each other behind.
Let's not take our relationship for granted and remember that we both still want each other. We fight too often and it's starting to feel like we should just let each other go.
Don't talk about love like it has no meaning. Love without true feeling, are we really so alone? 'Cause all I want to do is make you mine, mine, mine.
Love means something deep and real, but do we even have that anymore? I feel like we're drifting apart. All I want is to hold onto you and never let go.
Mine mine
I just want you to be mine forever.
Chorus
I want to be with you and make you happy. Let's not keep talking about our problems, let's just focus on being together and making it work.
