Spinning Around
Kylie Minogue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Spinning around, spinning around)
(Oh)
I'm spinning around
Move outta my way
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
I'm breaking it down
I'm not the same
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this

Traded in some sorrow
For some joy that I borrowed
From back in the day
Threw away my old clothes
Got myself a better wardrobe
I got something to say
I'm through with the past
Ain't no point in looking back
The future will be
And did I forget to mention
That I found a new direction
And it leads back to me, yeah

I'm spinning around
Move outta my way
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
I'm breaking it down
I'm not the same
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this

The mistakes I've made
Have given me the strength
To really believe
That no matter how I take it
There's no way I'm gonna fake it
'Cause it's gotta be real
I've got nothing left to hide
No reason left to fight
'Cause the truth's given me
A new freedom inside
Getting rid of my desire
Do you like what you see?

I'm spinning around
Move outta my way
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
I'm breaking it down
I'm not the same
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
Baby, baby, baby
(Ooh) You know you like it like this
Oh, baby, baby, baby
You know you like it like this
Oh, baby, baby, baby

I'm spinning around
Move outta my way
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
I'm breaking it down
I'm not the same
I know you're feeling me
'Cause you like it like this
Feeling me 'cause you like it like this
Oh, I'm not the same
I know you like it like this, oh, ooh, yeah
Like it like this
Like it like this
(I'm not the same)
Like it like this




I'm not the same (I'm not the same)
Oh

Spinning around, spinning around
Oh

I'm breaking it down, I'm not the same
I know you're feeling me 'cause you like it like this

Traded in my sorrow for some joy that I borrowed
From back in the day
Threw away my old clothes, got myself a better wardrobe

I'm through with the past, ain't no point in looking back
The future will be
And did I forget to mention that I found a new direction
And it leads back to me?

[Chorus]
I'm spinning around, move out of my way
I know you're feeling me 'cause you like it like this
I'm breaking it down, I'm not the same

'Cause the truth's given me
A new freedom inside, getting rid of my desire

Happy Anniversary, "Spinning Around." It's one of my absolute faves of Kylie's because it was a major anthem of mine after the break-up from a very rough six years relationship.

@PHlophe

Randy hit the club to get over the break up

@ajbaby3784

The original “ don’t start now” Kylie was so ahead of her time. A true pop artist 💕

@NazriB

Lies again? Samsung Ericsson

@latayesha

@Nazri Buang RUDE

@whatoncewas8480

True

@cherishoneal9108

When you think about it

@kidanygascot1410

OMG so true!!! In fact, the whole Future Nostalgia album is heavily influenced by Kylie Minogue.

This song and video are iconic in so many ways. Her return to the scene , those shorts and the song itself

@petercarey7456

The shorts were only a few pence from a second hand shop apparently, bit of useless information.
