Music Video
"Put the Needle on It" features a futuristic music video that was directed by Miikka Lommi in 2002. The video features Minogue in a studio surrounded with colourful neon lights and spinning on a human-sized record player. The video begins with a close-up on a television screen showing only Minogue's lips, singing the opening lines. A large, human-sized record player is then shown, surrounded by large video screens repeating the opening scene of the video. Minogue, wearing a short black dress and a cropped hair cut, is then shown in a digital room, surrounded by many lights and occasionally four digital dancers. The final sequence of the video features Minogue in a purple dress, spinning on the large record player introduced at the beginning. As the video concludes, all of the scenes are inter-cut and gradually fade.
A music video for a remix version was also created using the Jason Nevins' "Club Creation Edit" of the song. The remix video used only the scenes of Minogue in the digital room and spinning around on the record player, but they are arranged in a different order than how they appear in the original video. The music video was released commercially on The Hits & Beyond special edition companion DVD (2006) and Dannii Minogue: The Video Collection (2007). The latter included a short film, "Put the Needle on It (Behind the Scenes)", detailing the production of the track and its video.

“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
