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.

Get Outta My Way
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a chance tonight and try something new
You're getting boring, you're oh-so boring
And I don't recognize the zombie you turn into
Don't worry 'cause tonight I got you
You can take a seat, do what you normally do
I'm about to let you see
Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song
Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
Way outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
Now I gotta taste, I wanna explore
Ain't going to waste, no, not anymore
You goin' hard now to win my heart, but
Too many times now you've been calling her
Don't worry 'cause tonight I got you
You can take a seat, do what you normally do
I'm about to let you see (let you see)
This is what'll happen if you ain't givin' your girl what she needs
Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song
Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
Way outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my
And, no, I ain't goin' home 'cause I wanna stay
But I won't be alone, no how, no way
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (made of)
This is what'll happen if you ain't givin' your girl what she needs
Leave you, move on to a perfect stranger
You talk, I walk, wanna feel the danger
See me with him and it's turning you on
It's got me saying
Getting me back at the end of this song
Get outta my (hey)
Get outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my (hey)
Way outta my way (hey)
Got no more to say (hey)
He's taken your place
Get outta my way
No, I ain't goin' home (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
But I won't be alone (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (uhuh uhuh uhuh)
Now I've showed you what I'm made of (uhuh uhuh uhuh ah)
