Fever Lyrics » Madonna
[Intro]
You give me
You give me fever
[Verse 1]
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that’s so hard to bear
Listen to me, baby, hear every word I say
No one can love you the way I do
‘Cause they don’t know how to love you my way
[Chorus]
You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
[Verse 2]
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
My eyes light up when you call my name
‘Cause I know you’re gonna treat me right
Bless my soul, I love you, take this heart away
Take these arms I’ll never use
And just believe in what my lips have to say

About Madonna’s Fever from Erotica (1992)
“Fever” is a cover of
Peggy Lee’s song of the same name
(which itself was a cover of
Little Willie John
) and was the fourth single from
Erotica
. Madonna’s version radically reinterprets the Lee original, recasting the midcentury torch song as a simmering house track.
Indeed, the song began life as a pop-house composition called
“Goodbye to Innocence”
, but Madonna was never quite happy with the song. Near the end of the
Erotica
sessions, she was re-recording the vocals to the song, when she started sing the words to “Fever” over the beat. At that point, “Goodbye to Innocence” was scrapped and an all-out cover of “Fever” was created. It was the final song recorded and mixed for the album.
Although it didn’t chart on the Billboard Hot 100,
it became a number-one hit on the Billboard’s US Dance Club Songs and US Dance Singles Sales.

What did Madonna say about “Fever”?
Co-producer Shep Pettibone on the
origins and recording
of “Fever”:
One of the tracks,
“Goodbye to Innocence”
, just wasn’t working. There was something about the song that didn’t grab Madonna, so we had to fix it. I worked overnight in my studio and came back to Soundworks with a brand new bass line that seemed to do the trick. Madonna put on headphones and got ready to lay down the vocals for “Goodbye to Innocence.” But instead of singing the original words, which were written last year, Madonna started toying with the lyrics, singing the words to the lounge-lizard act staple, “Fever”. At first we thought: ‘This is cool,’ and it was. It sounded so good that we decided to take it one step further and actually cover the tune. Too bad no one knew the words. What we needed was a copy of Fever if we were going to record it that day. So, Madonna got on the phone with Seymour Stein at Sire Records, and within an hour, we had the lyric sheets, the Peggy Lee version, and the original version of the song in our hands. I was really impressed by how quickly we got it all. That was the last track on
Erotica
and we finished mixing it just in time to celebrate another birthday – Madonna’s.
