Forbes' recording debut, "Love Letters", appears on the soundtrack of Russell Crowe's 1990 movie, The Crossing along with tracks by Crowded House, David Bowie and the Proclaimers.[1] Soon after, she was signed to Mushroom Records and went on a writing trip to the United Kingdom and United States to work with some of the "Grammy Greats."

An album was recorded in London and two singles were released – "Dream On (Kathy's Song)" (March 1993) and "I'll Be There for You" (September 1995), and an album, I, No Y released in October,[2] for which she wrote nine of eleven songs. An EP, Baby Come Back (the title track, "Baby Come Back", is a cover of the Player's hit), followed in November. In the late 1990s she toured with Joe Cocker and Take That in Australia.

Forbes' greatest success as a songwriter was when her song, "I Want You", co-written with Peter Northcote,[3][4] was recorded by fellow Mushroom Records artist, Toni Pearen — it became a top 10 hit on the ARIA Singles Chart.[5]
