"Can't Get You Out Of My Head" is an uptempo dance-pop song, containing elements of nu-disco and a slow house beat.

The song was a worldwide hit as it reached number one in more than 40 countries. The song peaked at number one in the United Kingdom, her native Australia, Germany, France, Italy, Ireland, New Zealand, Switzerland and every other European country except Finland, where it peaked at number five.

The song received hugely positive reviews from music critics, many considering it Minogue's best single to date. Minogue has been credited with spearheading the modern fusion of pop and dance music, with "Can't Get You Out of My Head" being an obvious example.
