"Tied Up" is a song recorded by English-born Australian singer Olivia Newton-John for her second greatest hits album Olivia's Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1982). Written by John Farrar and Lee Ritenour, and produced by the former, the song was the second single released from the album, following "Heart Attack". "Tied Up" reached number 38 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
The song features Tom Scott on horns, who was the opening act for Newton-John's 1982 Physical Tour.
Billboard called it a "heavily textured production that's strong on bass drums and echoey vocal tracks."[1]
Ritenour also recorded the song for his 1982 album Rit 2, with Eric Tagg performing vocals.
