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.

Lost Without You
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can I tell you the truth?
I never did mind the storm
Even when my heart was torn
Thunder in the night sky
I'm running from a town like this
Crashing with a stolen kiss
And it came to me in a taxi ride
Hit me like a blinding light
And my heart was beating so alive
Wanna find myself all in the wild
Oh I, oh I
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you (hey, hey)
I'm gonna be free and fun
Gonna let my makeup run
Uh, see every sunrise
Facing up to all my fears
Gonna find a way out of here
We're all glitter and tears in the moonlight
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you
I wanna get lost without you
(I wanna get lost without you)
Before the sky was broken
I should get in and out trouble on my own
Just don't leave me totally alone
Baby the world can see me dance
The universe was ours and then it disappeared
But the skies are still blue
With or without you
And now I'm standing out here in the crowd
And I'm dancing
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you
I wanna get lost without you

Can I be honest with you?
May I speak candidly to you?
Can I tell you the truth?
Am I able to share the truth with you?
I never did mind the storm
I was never afraid of the turmoil
Even when my heart was torn
Even though my heart was broken
Thunder in the night sky
Lightning in the dark sky
I'm running from a town like this
I'm escaping from a place like this
Crashing with a stolen kiss
Colliding with a kiss that wasn't mine to take
We're all glitter and tears in the moonlight
We are all shining and emotional in the moonlight
And it came to me in a taxi ride
I had a realization during a taxi ride
Hit me like a blinding light
It impacted me powerfully
And my heart was beating so alive
My heart was racing with excitement
Wanna find myself all in the wild
I desire to fully immerse myself in nature
Oh I, oh I
Oh me, oh me
I wanna get lost without you (In the dark, in the night)
I want to get lost without your presence (In darkness, at night)
I wanna get lost without you (Get it wrong, make it right)
I want to overcome my mistakes and figure things out on my own, without relying on you
Ooh, ooh
An expression of excitement
Tell me is that cool?
Is that acceptable?
I'm gonna be free and fun
I'm going to be liberated and enjoyable
Gonna let my makeup run
I will let my makeup smudge
Uh, see every sunrise
Observe every dawn
Facing up to all my fears
Confronting all my anxieties
Gonna find a way out of here
I'll figure out how to leave this situation
Before the sky was broken
Before my world fell apart
I should get in and out trouble on my own
I need to deal with difficulties by myself
Just don't leave me totally alone
Please don't abandon me completely
Baby the world can see me dance
Even though the world is watching, I will dance
The universe was ours and then it disappeared
We once had everything, but then we lost it
But the skies are still blue
Despite everything, the sky is still a beautiful blue
With or without you
Either I will manage on my own or I will need your help
And now I'm standing out here in the crowd
I am now standing out in the crowd
And I'm dancing
And I'm celebrating

[Intro]
Can I be honest with you?
Can I tell you the truth?
[Verse 1]
I never did mind the storm
Even when my heart was torn
Thunder in the night sky
I'm running from a town like this
Crashing with a stolen kiss
We're all glitter and tears in the moonlight
And it came to me in a taxi ride
Hit me like a blinding light
And my heart was beating so alive
Wanna find myself all in the wild
Oh I, oh I
[Chorus]
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna be afraid I fall
Gonna let my makeup run
See every sunrise
Facing up to all my fears
Gonna find a way out of here
We're all glitter and tears in the moonlight
[Chorus]
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you
I wanna get lost without you
[Bridge]
Before the sky was broken
I should [?] trouble on my own
Just don't leave me totally alone
Baby the world can see me dance
The universe was ours and then it disappeared
But the skies are still blue
With or without you
And now I'm standing out here in the crowd
And I'm dancing
[Chorus]
I wanna get lost without you
(In the dark, in the night)
I wanna get lost without you
(Get it wrong, make it right)
Ooh, ooh
Tell me is that cool?
I wanna get lost without you
I wanna get lost without you

With or without you
And now I'm standing out here in the crowd
And I'm dancing

This deserved to be on the standard edition, one of the best Kylie songs recorded in years. This NEEDS to be a single and on the tour.
