Background and recording

In 1987, during a Fitzroy Football Club benefit concert with other Neighbours cast members, Minogue performed a cover version of "The Loco-Motion" and was signed to a recording contract with Mushroom Records.[4] The song was released as a single in Australia, and became the highest selling single of the 1980s.[5] Its success resulted in Minogue traveling to London with Mushroom Records executive Gary Ashley to work with Stock, Aitken and Waterman. They knew little of Minogue and had forgotten that she was arriving; as a result, they wrote "I Should Be So Lucky" while she waited outside the studio.[6] Minogue recorded the song in less than an hour, and returned home to Australia to work on Neighbours.[6] The song became a chart success, and Mike Stock traveled to Melbourne to apologize to Minogue for forgetting about her previous recording session. Stock successfully convinced Minogue to return to London in the beginning of 1988 to record songs for her debut album.[6] Fitzroy Football Club, most recently nicknamed The Lions, was an Australian rules football club formed in 1883 to represent the inner Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, Victoria and was a foundation member club of the Victorian Football League (now the Australian Football League) on its inception in 1897. ...
