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.

Turn It Into Love
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your jealous heart gave you the runaround
You couldn't see
That I would always be your friend
If you can look inside your heart
And understand what's tearing you apart
You gotta trust someone
[Chorus:]
Just turn it into love
Turn it into love
And open up your heart and you'll
Never feel ashamed if you
Turn it, turn it, turn it into love
When all your other friends are gone
I'll still be here to help you carry on
If you have faith in me
Then I'll believe in you
You are the first thing on my mind
Do you believe I wouldn't have the time
I have to make you see
You can't push the pain on me
[Chorus:]
Just turn it into love (Repeat 4X)
If you can look inside your heart
And understand what's tearing you apart
You gotta trust someone
Don't let hate get in the way
[Chorus:]

Do you believe I'd let you down
Are you truly convinced that I would ever disappoint you?
Your jealous heart gave you the runaround
Your envious mentality created feelings of confusion and uncertainty for yourself
You couldn't see
You weren't able to recognize
That I would always be your friend
That my loyalty as your friend is unwavering

If you take a moment to reflect on your feelings
And understand what's tearing you apart
And comprehend what is causing internal conflict for you

Don't allow animosity to obstruct your ability to love and trust
Just turn it into love

Always feel proud of yourself when you
Turn it, turn it, turn it into love
Change those negative feelings into a positive energy of love
When all your other friends are gone
When everyone else has left you behind

I have to make you see
It is my responsibility to help you understand
You can't push the pain on me
You can't project your emotional turmoil onto me

내 십대의 마지막쯤...
무얼 해야하는지...
어떤 미래가 있을지...
마냥
두려움과 호기심이 겹쳐 져 있었던 19살때 많이 많이 듣어 카일리 미노그의 노래..
이 음색... 정말 오랫만에 기억이 난다
그 때로 다시 돌아갈 수 있다면 .... 꿈에서라도...
성인이 되는 막연한 두려움과 설레임의 그때를...
그때는 들어보지 못했던것 같어 이노래 들을수록 좋다...
1989년 다시 한번 가볼 수 있다면... ㅋ
행복한 미소가 미소가 나도모르게 나오는 이 순간..... 지금의 나에게 최선을 다하자
@nickymurray4456
Been a Kylie fan since I was 6 years old.....I'm nearly 40! And she still kills it! Xx
@romanpantl6434
damn, she is literally a corpse, isnt she? :D
@J3335
Having a shitty life, best pal and we're discussing Kylie and I looked this up. Not heard it in 30 years. Put a smile on my face for 5 minutes. A S.A.W. Classic.
The 80s were awesome!
@AlphabetGrk
Brilliant! Kylie is all we need!
@user-yc3jp6bn9t
this song is truly a marvelous masterpiece
@Lommy9999
there's a melancholic quality to this song that makes it good
@muggedinmadrid
omg i thought i was the only one in the world that noticed that and it is the reason why i loved the song all these years. i also feel the same about 'never too late'. on the smash hits show she performed it with teary eyes which made it forever more poignant.
@jeanjean2806
Lommy absolutely!..a spot on description!
@noaei
Every version is great (let's be real and call it phenomenal) 80s pop but I prefer Kylie's pleading kind of vocals... it really fits in with the pathos of the song -- that past troubles with a lover can lead to something greater.
@noaei
Also I'm horrible at theory but it's obviously in a minor key. 🔑😌
