I try to discover A little something to make me sweeter Oh, baby, refrain From breaking my heart I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you give me no reason Why you're making me work so hard That you give me no That you give me no That you give me no That you give me no Soul, I hear you calling Oh, baby, please Give a little respect To me And if I should falter Would you open your arms out to me? We can make love, not war And live at peace with our hearts I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue What religion or reason Could drive a man to forsake his lover Don't you tell me no Don't you tell me no Don't you tell me no Don't you tell me no Soul, I hear you calling Oh, baby, please Give a little respect To me I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you give me no reason You know you're making me work so hard That you give me no That you give me no That you give me no That you give me no So, I hear you calling Oh, baby, please (give a little respect) Give a little respect To me So, I hear you calling Oh, baby, please (give a little respect) Give a little respect To me

Foi gravada pelo duo britânico Erasure em 1988, sendo lançada em setembro pela gravadora Mute Records.
A canção foi escrita por Vince Clarke e Andy Bell, e destaca o falsete vocal de Bell no refrão.
No Reino Unido alcançou o quarto lugar na UK Singles Chart, enquanto nos EUA chegou ao 14º posto no Billboard Hot 100 e foi a segunda música consecutiva de Erasure a entrar no top‑20.
Na Billboard Dance Club Play chart, a faixa atingiu o segundo lugar, evidenciando seu sucesso nas pistas de dança.
Em 2006, o grupo lançou um remix “Future Retro” da faixa, criado pela Jadded Alliance, que incorporou elementos dos remixes de Justin Strauss de 1988.
Em 2009, a música recebeu quatro novos remixes: um na compilação Pop! Remixed UK EP, outro no Phantom Bride EP (celebrando os 25 anos de The Innocents), e duas versões para download no site oficial do grupo (por Glenn Nichols e um dub da mixagem de Wayne G e Alan Allder).
