Annotations and Meaning
"My Oh My" by Kylie Minogue, featuring Bebe Rexha and Tove Lo, is quite an uptempo, slightly flirtatious song about the thrill of a new meeting and the transient glow that falls due to mutual attraction. It's a rather light track for a single from her first offering in 2024, since the previous year marked the more major charting with the album Tension. The lightness is captured in the almost whimsical lyrics but springs up with a beat to definitely prove that Kylie has not lost her pop stride. The track starts by musing into the fact that there was nothing exciting about Kylie's day until she met a new person. "Yesterday was just a day, I didn't know my life was gonna change" is then strengthened with the interchange of astrological signs, bringing up that spontaneously flirtatious dialogue between two people and fun in the moment. Bebe Rexha's verse continues with the theme but adds another layer: the idea of being two lost souls finding each other and transforming something in life. "Rush of hands, lingering looks, My name in your mouth, that was all it took," is extremely intense and immediate. The chorus from Kylie and Bebe encapsulates all of the euphoria that new love brings with it. Repeating "La-la-la-la, I'm like, 'Oh, my, oh, my,'" brings forth joy and amazement. This verse by Tove Lo deepened the song's narrative to be even more bluntly imploring. It added a darker angle, more intense and brooding. Here she is, describing herself as "the sexy jealous kind": Tove Lo goes full Scorp, passionate and possessive as she articulates a rather heady mix of emotions that are possible to occur under the surface of any burgeoning romance. The chorus is, therefore, the main part in this piece, for it brings the three artists together in a song of love and joy. Repetitive and catchy "La-la-la-la" creates unity and shared experience, which is what makes the song catch and engaging. Fans were informed about the release of the song through cryptic posts on their Instagram pages that indicated the astrological symbols corresponding to the signs of both artists. It is so creative to make people expect it and engage in speculations about the collaboration. My Oh My debuted on BBC Sounds' The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, when Kylie also informed about the show's weekly quiz, adding some personal note to the release of the song.My Oh My Song Lyrics
My Oh My by Kylie Minogue
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
[Verse 1: Kylie Minogue]
Yesterday was just a day
I didn't know my life was gonna change
Yesterday, light years away
You came in here now nothing is the same
[Pre-Chorus: Kylie Minogue]
When you asked, "What's your name?"
"What's your sign?"
I'm Kylie, it's Gemini
What's your drink? Let me buy
You had me when you said, "Hi"
Hi
[Chorus: Kylie Minogue]
La-la-la-la
I'm like, "Oh, my, oh, my"
La-la-la-la
You keep me up at night
La-la-la-la
I'm feelin' fireflies
La-la-la-la
Oh, my, oh, my
[Post-Chorus: Kylie Minogue]
Oh, my, oh, my
Oh, my, oh, my
[Verse 2: Bebe Rexha]
Rush of hands, lingering looks (Ah)
My name in your mouth, that was all it took
Now yesterday's light years away
You came in here, now there's no going back
[Pre-Chorus: Bebe Rexha]
When you asked, "What's your name?"
"Let me know"
I'm Bebe, I'm a Virgo
What's your drink? Let me buy
You had me when you said, "Hi"
Hi
[Chorus: Kylie Minogue & Bebe Rexha]
La-la-la-la
I'm like, "Oh, my, oh, my"

Oh, my, oh, my
[Post-Chorus: Kylie Minogue & Tove Lo]
Oh, my, oh, my
[Bridge: Tove Lo & Kylie Minogue]
Always love a dark room
With somebody to talk to
But never ever met someone like you
Hey, hello
I am Tove , Tove Lo (Uh-uh)
I'm a, I'm a Scorpio
Yeah, the sexy jealous kind
You had me when you said, "Hi"
Hi

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la (Ooh, oh, my, oh, my)
Oh, my, oh, my
