“Especially for You” was the fifth international single released from singer Kylie Minogue in time for the Christmas 1988 market and is a duet with Jason Donovan. It did not appear on her debut album but was included on Jason Donovan’s 1989 debut album Ten Good Reasons. The single was released on November 28, 1988 and was written by Stock Aitken Waterman.

Its strongest market was the UK, where its release followed the on-screen wedding of the two actors’ respective characters of Charlene and Scott in Australian soap Neighbours which brought peak audiences.

In the UK the song lodged for 3 weeks at #2 during the Christmas market behind Cliff Richard (a Christmas fixture) peaking at #1 for a further 4 weeks in early 1989, selling just shy of one million copies and remained Minogue’s best selling single until the 2001 “Can’t Get You out of My Head” million seller.
