Can't Get You Out Of My Head

From her late-80s beginnings, capturing our hearts as Charlene in Neighbours and singing 'I Should Be So Lucky' in a bubble bath, to her gold-plated hits like 'Spinning Around' and 'Padam Padam' soundtracking the euphoria of dancefloors the world over, there is only one Kylie Minogue.
She has sold over eighty-million records internationally, is the best-selling Australian pop star of all time and has collaborated with some of the biggest names in music, fashion and photography across her various shape-shifting eras. She is, undoubtedly, a modern-day icon. But who is the 'real' Kylie? And how has she remained a mystery while also navigating a forty-year career in the fickle world of pop?
Award-winning writer Michael Cragg takes us on a journey into the psyche of one of the world's most enigmatic pop stars. Via a mix of brand new interviews, a dash of oral history and some playful music writing, Can't Get You Out of My Head aims to put the pop puzzle pieces together.
