Songfacts®:

  • "Last Night I Dreamt I Fell In Love" is a collaborative single by Kylie Minogue and Brazilian DJ and producer Alok, dropped on February 14, 2025. The release coincided with Valentine's Day, emphasizing its romantic theme.
  • The song is a pulsing piece of dance-pop confectionery where Kylie dreams about love, wakes up with a crush and wants more. The song originated from an actual dream Minogue had; she awoke one morning with the title and idea for the song and jotted down the phrase. Kylie called up her songwriting pals Sarah Hudson and JHart and went into the studio. What followed was a fruitful session where the song took shape.
  • Other songs that British songwriter/producer James "JHart" Abrahart and American singer-songwriter Sarah Hudson have written together include "Bad Omens" by 5 Seconds of Summer, "The Loneliest" by Måneskin and "DJ Play A Christmas Song" by Cher.
  • The production was handed over to Alok, who, along with his go-to partner OHYES, Dutch producer Avedon and Maryland-native Zhone (Troye Sivan's "Rush," Kesha's "Joyride") added the requisite sparkle and thump. If Kylie brought the glitter, these guys brought the bass.
  • The collaboration marks Kylie Minogue and Alok's first official project together, though Alok previously remixed Minogue's iconic hit "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" in 2021 during a live set. The positive reception to that remix laid the groundwork for this partnership.
  • The video, directed by Sophie Muller - Kylie's go-to auteur of swirling light and suggestive camera angles - finds the pop icon writhing around on a mattress in a room lit by strobe lights. It is either an artistic statement about the transient nature of love or just Tuesday at Kylie HQ.
