You Won't Forget About Me
"You Won't Forget About Me" is a song recorded by Australian singer Dannii Minogue, released on 25 October 2004 from her greatest hits album, "The Hits & Beyond" (2006). It has since been officially added to the track listing of her fifth studio album, "Club Disco" (2007). Composition and inspiration. "You Won't Forget About Me" is a dance-pop song, which features the use of heavy drum beats and synth strings. The song's lyrics, written by Minogue, Pete Hammond and Bruce Elliot-Smith, describe a summer romance that has now ended. The  two lovers reassure each other that "you won't forget about me / as long as you live". After the success of her previous album, "Neon Nights", Minogue was asked by All Around the World Records, a major dance label whose main signings were Cascada, Ultrabeat, N-Trance and Flip & Fill, if she would write the lyrics to a popular dance instrumental track called "Flower Power", which was a huge hit in clubs in Ibiza. Minogue agreed and wrote the lyrics to the song that became "You Won't Forget About Me". About writing lyrics for the song Minogue said, "I 'd heard it without vocals and I thought, 'Fantastic'. I had already written loads of vocals for myself and knew I had something that would be perfect for it." Music video. The music video for the song was directed by Harvey & Carolyn. It is more edgy than previous Minogue videos and was inspired by the television show "Sex and the City". The music video is filled with rewind and fast-forward sequences. Dannii's date is played by her friend, the male model Benjamin Hart. The video begins with Dannii returning home from a date. She then takes off her  dress, slips into an oversized T-shirt, and then has a girls' night out with her girlfriends at her house, drinking, dancing, and playing around. Dannii's date calls her and she begins to get ready for her next date. She takes off her shirt and lies on her bed, daydreaming about her and her date being intimate. Dannii's girlfriends then help her get dressed, in the same blue dress, and they start dancing and playing around a final time before Dannii notices the doorbell. She puts her barrette back in her hair, answers the door, and starts making  out with her date, just like in the beginning of the video. Chart performance.
