Just two months prior to its release,
Kylie proclaimed to Smash Hits magazine that there was no chance
of a duet with Jason Donovan. The public, however, had other ideas.
Recorded on 10/11th November and released just three weeks later
to overwhelming public demand, ‘Especially For You’
debuted at No.2 in the UK and became Kylie’s first single
to sell over a million copies. Although ‘Especially For You’
was denied Christmas No.1 by Cliff Richard’s ‘Mistletoe
And Wine’, it went on to become the first No.1 single of 1989
and also topped the charts in France, Belgium and Hong Kong where
it remained for six weeks! |
