"Say Something" is a song by Australian singer Kylie Minogue. BMG Rights Management and Minogue's company Darenote released it as the lead single from her fifteenth studio album Disco (2020), which was distributed digitally and physically on July 23, 2020. Minogue co-wrote the song with Ash Howes, Jonathan Green, and long-time collaborator Richard "Biffco" Stannard. Musically, it is a disco-inspired track with dance-pop, electro-pop, and synth-pop influences. Inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown procedures, the song's lyrics explore themes of love and a call for unity.
“Say Something” received widespread acclaim by music critics for its production quality, overall sound, and songwriting. Furthermore, many critics regarded this as one of Minogue's best works, and it was shortlisted for Song of the Year at the 2021 APRA Music Awards. The song had a moderate commercial success, appearing on record charts in Belgium, Croatia, Hungary, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as component charts in Australia, New Zealand, and throughout Europe. The song was certified gold in Brazil by Pro-Música Brasil after exceeding 20,000 unit sales.
British filmmaker Sophie Muller shot the music video for the single in London, England, and depicts Minogue riding through space on a golden horse sculpture while adhering to social distancing measures imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Minogue further promoted the single by performing it on several live television shows including The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Good Morning America, as well as on the setlist and live release of her one-time special livestream show Infinite Disco.
