Lostboy – who wrote the 2023 track – originally thought about giving the song to Rita before it became Kylie’s comeback hit, but the 34-year-old pop star has no hard feelings about missing out on the song.

“And it’s Kylie Minogue – she’s the queen of the world, in my opinion. So, of course, Kylie’s going to get it and kill it and do a great job.
“And in the pop industry, that happens every day to a lot of big artists – you just don’t know about it.”
Rita also pointed out that she and Lostboy are “very close friends”, adding that he “lives in [her] studio” in Los Angeles, California.
