Reception

Commercial

Minogue scored her seventh chart-topper on the Australian Singles Chart when "Can't Get You Out of My Head" debuted at number-one on September 23, 2001.[3] The song spent four weeks at the top and became the third best-selling single of the year, only behind LeAnn Rimes' "Can't Fight the Moonlight" and Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me".[4] The Australian Recording Industry Association certified it three-times platinum for shipping 210,000 copies.[5] Additionally, the song peaked at number-one on the New Zealand Singles Charts and stayed there for three weeks.[6] It was later certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand.[7]

"Can't Get You Out of My Head" reached the top spot in every single European country bar Finland, where it peaked at number five.[8] The song spent 16 weeks at number-one on the Eurochart Hot 100 Singles and was replaced by Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman's "Somethin' Stupid" in January, 2002.[9] Notably, "Can't Get You Out of My Head" reached number-one for a week on the French and the German Singles Chart, where it sold over 500,000 copies in each country and was certified platinum by the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique and the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry respectively.[10][11] The single sold over 306,000 copies in its first week of release, resulting in a number-one debut on the UK Singles Chart, where it spent four weeks at the top.[2][12] By the end of the year, the single had sold 1,037,235 units, making it the third highest-selling single of 2001, only behind Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me" and Hear'Say's "Pure and Simple".[13] To date, it has sold over 1.1 million copies and is ranked as the 67th best-selling of all-time in Britain.[14] Eventually, the British Phonographic Industry certified it platinum.[15] Additionally, Minogue is part of a group of seven female acts with million-selling singles, which includes singers Whitney Houston, Cher and Céline Dion, among others.[16] "Can't Get You Out of My Head" is Minogue's second million-seller in the U.K., the first being the No. 1 hit "Especially for You", a collaboration with Jason Donovan released in 1988.[17] With over four million sales worldwide, "Can't Get You Out of My Head" is Minogue's most successful single to date.[2]

Following the success achieved around the world, "Can't Get You Out of My Head" was released in North America in 2002. The single originally appeared at number 23 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles on January 5.[18] Two weeks later it debuted at number sixty-four on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number seven in its ninth week on the chart.[19][20] Thus, becoming Minogue's first top ten hit in the U.S. since "The Loco-Motion", which peaked at number three for two weeks in 1988.[21] The song spent 20 weeks on the chart and landed at number 45 on Billboard magazine's year-end chart.[22][23] "Can't Get You Out of My Head" was an all-around hit on Top 40 radio, reaching the top ten on the Top 40 Mainstream, the Top 40 Tracks and the Rhythmic Top 40, which helped the single to peaked at number eight on the Hot 100 Airplay.[21][24] Additionally, the song topped the Hot Dance Club Play chart.[21] In its original physical release, the single experienced weak sales peaking at number seventy-two on the Hot 100 Singles Sales.[25] However, on August 15, 2005, the Recording Industry Association of America certified it gold for selling over 500,000 digital downloads in the U.S.[26]

Critical

In August 2009, Pitchfork Media listed "Can't Get You Out of My Head" in their Top 500 tracks of the 2000s list at number 37.[27] Tim Finney said about the song: "How did Kylie make one of the decade's finest dance-pop anthems? By offering less: less singing, less melody, less feeling. What's left is a buzzy, insatiable desire, an itch you can't scratch but maybe can dance out. Kylie is a diva more than singer, understanding intuitively how each coy purr, each insouciant whisper can speak to and for the lust of her audience. The point is not to want her, but to want what she wants: In the right environment, dancing to Can't Get You Out of My Head traces a shared history of hopeful flirtations, irresistible seductions, inevitable disappointments, and the helpless compulsion to repeat the cycle again. If its sleek, synthetic surfaces feel hollow, it's because fantasy is hollow, a shell for impossible expectation."[27]

In December 2009, the staff of Rolling Stone listed the song in their list, 100 Best Songs of the Decade, at number 45.[28] They said of the song: "The pint-size Aussie disco dolly seduced the U.S. with this mirror-ball classic, chanting that obsessive melody in a sea of "la-la-la" vocals. We've been hearing it at the gym ever since."[28]

In January 2010, Stylus Magazine put the song on their list, The Top 100 Singles of the Noughties, at number 20.[29] Mike Atkinson said of the song: "Like so many great pop records before it, “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” represents a graceful collision of contrasts. It is both participative and private, matching perky singalong sections with intimate confessions, worried pleas, and moments of blissful surrender. Beneath the archetypal gay-disco bounce, an electric piano sketches a melancholy counterpoint, adding blue notes to the primary coloured template. A soaring, swooning glide of strings is subverted by a series of blaring electronic miaows, which in turn remind us of those strange purring noises which greeted us at the start of the track. Do they subliminally reinforce our image of Kylie-as-sex-kitten, or are they there to satirise, and gently debunk? We could chuckle at the arch wryness of it all... or we could dismiss all these jolly trappings as misleading flim-flam, a smokescreen for the “dark secret” which lies at the heart of the composition... or we could simply de-tune from the detail, yield to the magic, and luxuriate in its utter perfection." [29]

Also in January 2010, Slant Magazine listed the song in their Best of the Aughts: Singles at number 3.[30] Dave Hughes said of the song: "Names can be destinies; titles can be too. So it goes with Kylie's most global hit, an iridescent earworm remarkably effective at its explicit mission of reprogramming your brain. Kraftwerk with an armful of million-dollar hooks and an international-scale marketing budget, its robotic after-hours pulse signaled the arrival of a minimal era in dance music. It still sounds like a future where everyone's coked up, wearing slinky dresses, driving sleek cars too fast on the autobahn en route to the coolest party in the world—and it still lives up to its title's promise."[30]

In February 2010, NME put the song in their list 100 Tracks of the Decade at number 74.[31] Ash Dosanjh, noted that the song "Proved the Aussie songstress was more than just an impossible pop princess." She went on to say: "Whether you were an indie purest or a rock traditionalist, there was one certainty with Kylie’s 2001 hit, and that was that it wasn’t just the fodder of sugared dance pop zealots. For here was a song that encapsulated everything enviable in a well-crafted song. Catchy hooks, a salaciously cool video and lyrical content that did exactly what it said on the tin. Reaching Number One in over 40 countries, 'Can’t Get You Out Of My Head’ may not have been the last decent song that this Neighbours alumnus released, but it is arguably still her best."[31]

Music video

Minogue driving a De Tomaso Mangusta in the video for "Can't Get You Out Of My Head".

The accompanying music video for "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" was directed by Dawn Shadforth. It shows Minogue driving towards a futuristic city and back-up dancers in various futuristic costumes dancing in a highly stylized manner. It then focuses on Minogue in a sporty outfit, after which she is seen with other dancers in a computer-generated futuristic city. Her white, hooded costume, with plunging necklines and revealing slits, was widely discussed both for its fashion style and for Minogue's overt sexual posturing. Lastly, she appears with a curly hairdo in a metal-like costume. In his book La La La, William Baker conceded that the robotic dance within the video was purposely developed to give Minogue an association with a dance the way Madonna had developed an association with Vogueing, he felt that at this stage in her career it was important for Minogue to set trends and not follow them the way Madonna had before her.

In 2002, the video won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography. It was voted the third best video of all time by viewers of MTV Italy.
