About This Track

“I Should Be So Lucky” is a pop–dance song performed by Australian singer Kylie Minogue. The song was written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman for Minogue’s debut album Kylie (1988).

The song was released as the album’s second single in December 1987. It was a commercial success, reaching the top ten on the majority of the charts it entered, and number one in the United Kingdom and Australia. The song became the highest selling single in Australia in 1988 and was named “Record of the Year” by the Japanese Phonographic Record Association.

After the success of her debut single Locomotion in Australia, Minogue traveled to London to work with Stock, Aitken and Waterman, a successful British writing and production team. They knew little of Minogue and had forgotten that she was arriving; as a result, they wrote “I Should Be So Lucky” in forty minutes while she waited outside the recording studio. Mike Stock wrote the lyrics for the song in response to what he had learned about Minogue prior to her arrival. He believed that although she was a successful soap star in Australia and very talented, there must be something wrong with her and figured that she must be unlucky in love. Minogue recorded the song in less than an hour, which Stock attributes to her good ear for music and her quick memorization skills. After Minogue finished the recording session she returned home to Australia to continue work on the soap opera, Neighbours.

    Yes, the "French & Saunders" opera parody is my favorite thing about this song. [2] But it doesn't mean, that it's bad- typical sweet 80s pop song
