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 ↴
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
Sometimes the love that you wasted
Becomes the love that you've lost
A moment feels like a life time
Cry cry cry, you can't stop
No one but me understands
Arms reach out from a distance
Palm to palm, touching hands
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
You know that you are a fighter
But you feel yourself fall apart
Now you're just panicking because you're left defeated and you see nothing but dark
But when my soul is in pieces
No one but me understands
Arms reach out from a distance
Palm to palm, touching hands
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
Oh, feels like you light me up
Feels like you light me up
When the sparks run out
The song Sparks by Kylie Minogue conveys the feeling of hope and comfort in moments when everything seems to have turned dark. In the first verse, Kylie sings about feeling ignited and alive when she is around the person she loves. But at times, love can be wasted and turn into a loss. In such moments when she feels no ignition, she is still comforted by the person she loves, as they reach out from a distance and touch hands. The chorus talks about feeling lighted up by the person she loves, even when the sparks run out.
In the second verse, Kylie sings about being a fighter and falling apart, but she finds solace in knowing that no one but herself understands what she is going through. Once again, a comforting presence reaches out to her and she finds hope. The song ends with the repetition of the chorus.
Overall, Sparks is a beautifully written song that talks about the significance of hope in dark times and the impact that the presence of loved ones can have on our lives.

I think this was the only B-side we got from the KMO album. I love how you've kept the beat of the original and added funkiness and more rhythm to it. It just flows, thank you!
