Like its her debut album, "Enjoy Yourself" was high in bubblegum pop, but also included a handful of ballads. Some critics praised the album for its catchy pop music and called it “a good companion to her debut”^[1], while others criticized it for sounding too much like her debut and for reusing the same dance-pop format again. Due to this and the criticisms from many critics questioning her talents, a change of music style and image was due as the album's promotion came to a close.

In 1990 the album was issued in the US and Canada on the Geffen Records. In addition to the release of the album, the US also received a special alternate cover. Initial copies sold were also available in a long box packaging. "Enjoy Yourself" would be Minogue's last official album release in the USA until 2002's "Fever".
