"Everything I Wanted" is a pop–dance song written by Dannii Minogue, Mark Taylor and Steve Torch for Minogue's third studio album Girl (1997). The song was produced by Metro and received a positive reception from music critics. It was released as the second single in the fourth quarter of 1997 and reached the top twenty in the United Kingdom. In Australia, the song peaked within the top fifty. In the UK, "Everything I Wanted" was also released to success on the dance charts, where it reached the top position on the Upfront Club chart, becoming Minogue's second single to do so.
In 1998, the song was featured in the Australian film Head On in a scene where one of the film's characters dissmisses the song as nothing but pop fluff.

[edit] Music video
"Everything I Wanted" features a music video directed by Steve Shaw and was filmed in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1997. The video, filmed in black and white on a 16mm camera, features Minogue driving through Las Vegas in a convertible, dancing in her hotel room and swimming in a pool. Minogue and her then boyfriend Shaw came up with the idea for the video in mid-1997 and traveled alone in the United States, without a production crew, so they could capture Minogue in spontaneous and real life moments. Shaw decided to use a 16mm hand held camera to film the video as it gave the music video a texture that the majority of the other pop videos did not have.
A personal favourite of Minogue's, the video for "Everything I Wanted" was included on the Australian video collection The Videos in 1998 and the special edition of her greatest hits CD/DVD release The Hits & Beyond in 2006.
