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.

Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just need a little time to hide
We're forever you and I
And you know it
Wouldn't give it all away
'Cause we weathered that
Storm and the pouring rain
You show it
And nothing beats that high
But coming down from you
Well it takes just a little time
So I put it in writing
This is au revoir, I won't go that far
(You'll still see me, you'll still hear me
Love you dearly, ah)
And this is not the end, I'll come back again
(You'll still see me, you'll still hear me
Love you dearly, yours sincerely)
Every little word
Every dance I do when I'm shaking it for you
Even when it hurts
There's nothing on earth I wouldn't do for you
'Cause nothing beats that high
But coming down from you
Well it takes just a little time
So I put it in writing
This is au revoir, I won't go that far
(You'll still see me, you'll still hear me

Line by Line Meaning
This isn't goodbye
This is not a permanent farewell
I just need a little time to hide
I require some time for solitude
We're forever you and I
We will always be connected
And you know it
And you are aware of it
Wouldn't give it all away
I wouldn't reveal everything
'Cause we weathered that
Because we endured that
Storm and the pouring rain
Difficult times and challenges
When I need a little love
When I require some affection
You show it
You demonstrate it
And nothing beats that high
And nothing compares to that feeling of euphoria
But coming down from you
But returning to reality after being with you
Well it takes just a little time
Well, it requires only a short period
So I put it in writing
So I express it through writing
This is au revoir, I won't go that far
This is a temporary goodbye, I won't go to an extreme extent
(You'll still see me, you'll still hear me
(You will still encounter me, you will still perceive me
Love you dearly, ah)
I hold deep affection for you, ah)
And this is not the end, I'll come back again
And this is not the finality, I'll return once more
(You'll still see me, you'll still hear me
(You will still encounter me, you will still perceive me
Love you dearly, yours sincerely)
I hold deep affection for you, yours sincerely)
Every little word
Every single expression
Every dance I do when I'm shaking it for you
Every move I make when I'm dancing seductively for you
Even when it hurts
Even when it causes pain
There's nothing on earth I wouldn't do for you
There is nothing in this world that I wouldn't do for you
Give me those thrills, I won't forget ya
Provide me with those exciting experiences, I won't forget you
Put it all down in a love letter
Write it all in a heartfelt message

Dear Kylie,
I have received the beautiful message that you wrote on this beautiful song and now it’s my turn to write down my feelings for you on this love letter.
I don’t think I can describe the way you make me feel in a single phrase, but let me try to explain it for you.
It feels as if you have arrived to my life at the right moment, many times. It also feels as if you knew what I’m going through, every time. It feels as if we have a strong connection, bigger than space and time.
I’ll be always thankful with you. You help me to put all my pieces together when the silence around me has fragmented my spirit.
I could not conceive a world without your voice. How could I make it after all these years?.
You make me a dreamer, a believer, a lover and I’ll be here for you until my last breath. And when you need to hide, take your time, no matter how long it takes, I’ll be patiently waiting to see you, to hear you. Don’t you think for a second that I won’t.
I may not be a good writer, but every single word here comes from the bottom of my heart.
I am really lucky lucky to share this world with you.
Sincerely yours.
