Enjoy Yourself is the second album by Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue. It was released by PWL on 9 October 1989, and received mixed reviews. Chris True of Allmusic describes the album's songs as "catchy stuff", and calls Enjoy Yourself a "good companion to her debut". Rolling Stone reviewer Arion Berger gave the album one out of five stars and called it "inept".
Enjoy Yourself reached number one in the United Kingdom, and produced two number one singles. In January 1990, the album was certified four times platinum in the UK, and sold over one million copies within the first ten weeks of its release.
Following the commercial success of her debut album Kylie in 1988, Minogue began recording her second album with Stock, Aitken and Waterman at PWL Studios in London, England in February 1989. Recording sessions also took place in April and July 1989, with the cover version of "Tears on My Pillow" being one of the final songs recorded for the album after Minogue had heard the original version of the song while dining at Pete Waterman's house.
Enjoy Yourself received mixed reviews from music critics. Chris True of Allmusic described the album's songs as "catchy stuff", and called Enjoy Yourself a "good companion to her debut". He did, however, write that the album "sounds very similar to [Minogue's] debut" because she collaborated with "the same team that put together her first LP". Rolling Stone reviewer Arion Berger gave the album one out of five stars and called it "inept". He wrote that Stock, Aitken and Waterman left "Minogue at the mercy of her own abysmal voice, with only a hopelessly retro 4/4 to keep time" and called Minogue's cover version of "Tears on My Pillow" a "travesty".
Enjoy Yourself debuted on the UK albums chart at number one, and reached double platinum status upon release with pre-sales of over 600,000 copies. In the UK, the album sold over one million copies in its first ten weeks of release. On 1 January 1990, the album was certified four times platinum. In Australia, the album reached number nine, and was certified gold on release. The album has sold over 3.5 million copies worldwide.
The album reached number one in Hong Kong and Ireland, and the top ten in Belgium, Denmark, Greece and Japan. In North America, Enjoy Yourself received limited promotion and did not appear on any major album charts.
