Data Insight

Enjoy Yourself repeats the authorship pattern of the debut: Stock Aitken Waterman wrote and produced everything except the 'Tears on My Pillow' cover, and Minogue still holds no writing credit. The record captures her second year as a pure interpreter of the trio's songs, before the creative shift that would later put her name in the writing column. The covers and the SAW originals together leave no track authored by Minogue.

Enjoy Yourself is the second studio album by Kylie Minogue, released in October 1989 on PWL. Like her debut, it was written, produced, and arranged by Stock Aitken Waterman, who kept her in the role of vocalist rather than writer. The album produced the UK number-one 'Hand on Your Heart' along with 'Wouldn't Change a Thing' and 'Never Too Late,' and it topped the UK chart for a second time. Its only non-SAW song is the doo-wop standard 'Tears on My Pillow,' another cover, underlining that at this stage her records were built entirely around outside-written material.
