Slow
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I put my best dress on
Boy I was so right
Our eyes connected
Now nothin's how it used to be
No second guesses
Trackin' on this feelin'
Pull focus close up you and me
Nobody's leavin'
Got me affected
Spun me one eighty degrees
So electric
Slow down and dance with me, yeah, slow
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
Come on and dance with me, yeah, slow
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
Don't wanna rush it
Let the rhythm pull you in
It's here so touch it
You know what I'm sayin'
And I haven't said a thing
Keep the record playin'
Slow down and dance with me, yeah, slow
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
Come on and dance with me, yeah, slow
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
Oh, oh, read my body language
Take it down, down
Slow down and dance with me, yeah, slow
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
Come on and dance with me, yeah, slow
(Slow down and dance with me)
Skip a beat and move with my body, yeah, slow
(Slow down and dance with me)
Skip a beat and move with my body
Skip a beat and move with my body
Skip a beat and move with my body
Slow
Kylie Minogue’s song, Slow, is about a woman who knows that the man she is interested in will be at the party she is going to, so she puts on her best dress with the intention of looking and feeling her best. Her intuition is correct because she finds him at the party, and they connect on a deep level. She describes how electric and magnetic their attraction is and how it has spun her in 180 degrees. The lyrics suggest that she wants him to slow down and dance with her, letting the rhythm of the music lead them into each other’s arms. She wants to skip a beat and move with his body, allowing herself to be moved by him.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of them taking their time to enjoy the moment and the chemistry they share. She tells him not to rush it, and to let the rhythm pull him in. She wants him to understand what she is implying, without her having to speak a single word. The lyrics of the song, “Oh, oh, read my body language, take it down, down,” suggest that the communication between them runs deeper than words.
Overall, the song is about the power of attraction and the importance of savoring the moment. Kylie Minogue sings with a sultry voice, emphasizing the sensuality of the song.

I remember when I used to work retail. There was a huge screen wall consisting of 25 tvs that would play video clips. Whenever this song came on EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. in the shop would stop and watch it till the end. Hypnotic is an understatement ❤
