Interesting facts and trivia about Give In to Me. By Songfacts®.

In the verses of "Give In To Me," Michael Jackson complains about getting kicked around by a girl with a heart of stone. She seems to enjoy hurting him, and even laughs at him with her friends. The chorus seems to tell another story though, with Jackson lusting after her: Love is a feeling Quench my desire Give it when I want it Takin' me higher Part of his Dangerous album, the song was released as a single in Europe, Australia and New Zealand but not in North America or Asia. It topped the New Zealand singles charts for four weeks and went to #2 in the UK.

The song features guitarist Slash of Guns N' Roses. Slash also contributed guitar to the video version of "Black Or White." He told Spinner, "When Macaulay Culkin was trashing around, that's me playing."

This was written, arranged and composed by Michael Jackson and produced by Jackson and Bill Bottrell. R&B and hip-hop producer Teddy Riley worked on many of the tracks on Dangerous. He commented to Musicradar.com: "Bill Bottrell put in some great production on this track. Because he had his hand in there it ended up sounding perfect. He had the magic touch and had everything leveled up nicely. He's been doing it for so long. He's the best with microphones, and knowing where to sit the instruments on the track. He's really good. I also like Bruce Swedien who mixed some tracks on this album. I'd never worked with Brucey before that. But I always ask for him as an engineer after working with him on this."
