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

Got me affected spun me 180 degrees

The song, "Slow" by Kylie Minogue, is an upbeat, danceable ode to falling in love on the dancefloor. The lyrics begin by establishing the setting; the singer knew her love interest would be at the club that night, and dressed up accordingly in her "best dress." As the two connect with their eyes, she notes that nothing is the same as it used to be and that there are "no second guesses" in their attraction.
The chorus then urges her love interest to slow down and dance with her, emphasizing the physical connection between the two. She advises him to let the rhythm pull him in and that "this will touch it," presumably meaning that their connection will deepen through their shared dance.
The bridge brings in body language as a source of communication, urging the love interest to "take it down, down." The final chorus repeats the message of slowing down and dancing together, with a repeated "skip a beat and move with my body" emphasizing their physical connection.
Overall, the song is a compelling narrative of two people falling in love through the shared experience of dance, with the lyrics emphasizing the importance of letting go and living in the moment.

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 ❤
