"Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect)" is a song by Swedish singer and songwriter Robyn, released as the second single from her first album, Robyn Is Here (1995). The song was released in September 1995 and became a top-20 hit in Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. On the Eurochart Hot 100, the song peaked at number 60 in December 1995. It was not released in the United Kingdom or the United States until 1998. In the US, it was Robyn's final single release there until her 2008 comeback. It was also the final single release from Robyn for nine years in the UK until "Konichiwa Bitches" was released as the first single from her fourth album, Robyn in 2007. Two different music videos were produced for the song.

Chart performance

In Sweden, "Do You Really Want Me" became Robyn's second top 10 hit, peaking at number two, becoming her highest-charting single until "Dancing on My Own" entered the charts at number two for two weeks in 2010. In the US, the single was not as popular as her previous two hits, "Show Me Love" and "Do You Know (What it Takes)", peaking at number 10 on the Pop Songs airplay chart. In the UK, "Do You Really Want Me" became Robyn's second biggest hit, peaking at number 20, her second of two top 20 hits there from Robyn Is Here. The song also peaked at number 43 in New Zealand.

Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as a "engaging third single from her fun debut", noting that "in its original Ulf Lindstrom/Johan Ekhé production, the song is a chipper, hip hop-inflected ditty with infectious kid-pop energy and a nursery rhyme-like hook. Recut with Q.D.3 at the helm, it has become a sultry, Teena Marie-esque soul shuffler that's clearly designed to attract an older and more varied audience to the party." He added that "in fact, it leaves you properly intrigued and anxious to hear more."[1] Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented that "the part nagging/part soulful vocals of this Swedish singer and the mid-tempo groove that comfortably chugs along make for a pleasant and casual pop/dance tune."[2] Later in 1998, when released in the UK, Music & Media stated that the new version is a "lush midtempo ballad".[3]

Music video

There were made three different music videos of the song; two for the 1995 version and one for the 1998 version.
