Kidman, who is primarily known for her acting career, entered the music industry in the early 2000s after recording a number of tracks[2] for the soundtrack album to Baz Luhrmann's 2001 motion picture Moulin Rouge![3] in which she starred. Her duet with Ewan McGregor entitled "Come What May"[4] was released as her debut and the second single of the OST through Interscope[3][4] on 24 September 2001.[4] The composition became the eighth highest selling single by an Australian artist for that year,[5] being certified Gold by Australian Recording Industry Association,[6] while reaching on the UK Singles Chart at number twenty-seven.[7] In addition to, the song received a nomination at the 59th Golden Globe Awards as the Best Original Song[8] and has been listed as the eighty-fifth within AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs by American Film Institute.[9]
"Somethin' Stupid", a cover version of the Frank and Nancy Sinatra song followed soon. The track recorded as her common duet with English singer-songwriter Robbie Williams was issued on 14 December 2001 by Chrysalis[10] as the lead of his fourth studio album Swing When You're Winning.[11] Kidman's second single topped the official music charts in Italy,[12] New Zealand,[13] Portugal[14] and the UK,[7] as well as scored top ten placings all over Europe, including Australia,[15] Austria,[16] Belgium,[17] Denmark,[18] Germany,[19] Netherlands,[20] Norway[21] and Switzerland.[22] Apart from being certified either Gold[23][24][25][26][27][28][29] in a number of countries, it was classified as the eleventh best selling single of 2002 in Italy,[30] thirtieth in the UK, the fifty-ninth in Australia,[31] and the ninety-third in France,[32] respectively. On 5 April 2002, Kidman released, through Interscope, her third single, a cover of Randy Crawford's "One Day I'll Fly Away".[33] A Tony Philips remix of the track[33] was promoted as the pilot single of a follow-up to the original soundtrack of the same name, Moulin Rouge! Vol. 2. After that, in 2006, she contributed with her vocal for the OST of Happy Feet on a rendition of Prince's "Kiss".[34] While in 2009, she was featured on the Nine soundtrack ("Unusual Way").[35]
