[edit] Song Information

"Absolutely Everybody", was released in 1999. It debuted and peaked at #6 on the ARIA Single Charts, her 2nd highest single to date.

The song "Absolutely Everybody" was also released internationally and reached the Top 10 in the United Kingdom, and throughout Europe and South East Asia shortly after her Olympics performances, but subsequent releases met with little success. For her service to music she was later awarded the Australian Centenary Medal by the Government of Australia.

"Absolutely Everybody", was an anthemic dance track that reached the Top 10, and with its positive lyrics, became an unofficial theme song for various cultural events. It remained in the ARIA Top 50 Singles Chart for over six months after its release.^[3]
