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.

Lets Get To It
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make it happen
Need your touch oh so much
Don't you see
Let's get to it right away
Let's get the sun in our day
Let's turn a spark to a flame
My heart is longing to prove
That maybe without you
The world will grow colder
Come on let's do it
Before we're much older
[Chorus]
Let's get to it right now
Make it happen somehow
Need your touch oh so much
Don't you see what I'm trying to say
Let's get to it right away
Let's get the show on the road
Our love would be solid gold
Let's put the key to the door
Don't put it off anymore
'Til now it's only been dreams
I have lived for
Come one, let's do it
'cause I want to give more
[Chorus]
'Til now it's only been dreams
I have lived for
Come one, let's do it
'cause I want to give more
[Chorus: x2]

Kylie's BEST album for me x I bought the vinyl in 1991 on release. It's my favourite K album because it's smooth, polished but still edgy and soulful. I love how PWL let Kylie write with them as well, it's the first Kylie album where she was more involved. The art work is sublime and it's all sheer quality! A D O R E xxxxxxxxx
