"Suddenly" is a song recorded by Australian singer Angry Anderson for his debut solo album, Beats from a Single Drum. The track was first released via Mushroom Records in Australia during July 1987. It was written by Anderson, Andy Cichon and Kevin Beamish, with the latter serving as the song's producer. "Suddenly" was used in the Australian soap opera Neighbours during an episode that featured the wedding of Scott Robinson (played by Jason Donovan) and Charlene Mitchell (played by Kylie Minogue). Minogue selected the track when asked by the producers to select a romantic song to be played during the episode. The song's release coincided with the broadcast, and it reached number two on the ARIA Singles Chart. "Suddenly" peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart.
