LYRICS:
Last night I lost my head And fell right back into your love I lay intoxicated While angels circled high above Deep in a perfect moment All at once it feels so right But when I wake I see reality turn back and bite Your heartbeat's ticking And your cool starts dripping And your tongue tied up on the phone Your backbone's breaking And your smooth starts shaking Like you can't stand being alone Your cot starts rocking Little doubts start knocking Like the whole world's slipping away The tension's killing But the ride is thrilling But you can't help going again What you want is what you don't know Turn me on and watch your ego What you want is what you don't need Stand up when your talking to me I can't start giving you up I'm lost without you Can't stop ticking the tock I can't start giving you up I'm mad about you Can't stop slipping it off A girl's got to suffer for fashion She knows what her body can do-ooh She finds a man and she makes it her passion I'm happy trying all the time With a boy like you I can't start giving you up I'm lost without you I can't start giving you up I'm mad about you I can't start giving you up I'm lost without you Can't stop ticking the tock I can't start giving you up I'm mad about you Can't stop slipping it off

The song's a return to big sound Fever electro, but with subtler production: all the hacksaw synth is pushed back and sanded off, so Kylie's head voice doesn't have to go through eight additional filters to compete with the bristle. Straight fours and minimal syncopation make "Giving You Up" way simpler dancefloor fodder than any of Body Language's offerings, but that's probably better for most of us. Nick Sylvester

(...) [Xenomania] bring a distinctly British sound to this song. Never has Kylie sounded more flirty than on this song as dreamy synths pulsate over a great beat. An utterly infectious song (...) L. Green "Feltano"
x
(...) a sultry little throbber (that for some reason echoes USURA’s “Open Your Mind” (which, truthfully, is Simple Minds’ “New Gold Dream”)) that again gives us Minogue at her best. Jason Shawahn
x
(...) Giving You Up is not one of Kylie's most inspired singles.
