"This Is the Way" is a dance-pop song written by Eliot Kennedy, Cary Baylis and Michael Ward for Australian singer Dannii Minogue's second album, Get into You (1993).
Alan Jones from Music Week wrote, "Strong bass and weedy synth strings underpin a muscular pop/dance confection that draws one of Minogue's meatier vocals.
"[2] Tom Doyle from Smash Hits gave the song three out of five, describing it as "the sort of perky pop records that made Kylie famous.
In the video, Minogue is portrayed as a woman with a lucrative career, who is doing very well - until in a coffee shop, she sees a couple being romantic towards one another, which causes her to reminisce about her time with her boyfriend (Julian McMahon).
While all this is happening, McMahon is shown doing various things: painting a still life portrait, chopping wood from trees, pouring water over himself and running with his dog, all while secretly thinking about his time with Minogue.
