"If You Were with Me Now" is a song written by British songwriting team Mike Stock and Pete Waterman, Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue, and American R&B singer Keith Washington for Minogue's fourth studio album, Let's Get to It (1991). The song was produced by Stock and Waterman. The song was released as the second single in October 1991 and reached number four on the UK Singles Chart, as well as the top 10 in Ireland and the top 30 in Australia. The song is Minogue's first hit single to feature her as a co-writer. Both Minogue and Washington recorded their vocals separately at PWL's studio in London; the two did not meet until the music video filming. At no moment of the video do they appear together, and there are no obvious signs that the scenes of each of them were recorded at the same location. Critical reception Digital Spy's Nick Levine called the track a "slushy duet". Writing Minogue's biography for her special on Australian music video programme Rage, they called the song one of the "richly beautiful ballads".
