Kylie Minogue had become popular in the Australian soap opera Neighbours, leading to a massive hit in Australia with her cover of "The Loco-Motion." British producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman then took her on and groomed her for UK pop success. This was her debut single in the UK.
Kylie had been signed up a year earlier but when she turned up at the studio Stock, Aitken & Waterman realized they hadn't written any songs for her, so they quickly composed this song. It was written in 10 minutes, and 2 hours later she'd finished recording it.
Pete Waterman borrowed the melody from Pachabel's Canon for this.
