"Don't Talk Just Kiss" is a song by English pop trio Right Said Fred, released in November 1991 by Tug Records as the second single from their debut album, Up (1992). The song was written by Richard Fairbrass, Fred Fairbrass and Rob Manzoli, and produced by Tommy D. It features uncredited duet vocals by American R&B and dance music singer Jocelyn Brown, although she appears in the accompanying music video, which was directed by James Le Bon. The single reached number three in the United Kingdom in December 1991 and became a top-10 hit in several international territories. "Don't Talk Just Kiss" was released in the United States in February 1992, peaking at number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number eight on the Billboard Dance Club Play chart.

Critical reception

AllMusic editor Stephen Schnee described the song as a "delectable slice of '90s disco". J.D. Considine from The Baltimore Sun felt that "there's not enough of the single's goofy charm to sustain disco throwbacks" like "Don't Talk Just Kiss". Billboard magazine found that singer Richard Fairbrass "has a distinctive baritone voice", adding that he "shines brightest" on the song. Billboard editor Larry Flick wrote, "Now that they've proven how "sexy" they are, Fred and friends want you to pucker up...immediately." He also complimented it as "an equally appealing pop/house gem that benefits from a guest vocal from club dynamo Jocelyn Brown" and an "infectious hook". Clark and DeVaney from Cash Box commented, "Who would have ever figured a couple of body builders would cause such a ruckus in the music business?". They added that "Don't Talk Just Kiss" "is actually more of a real song than its predecessor, but still manages to contain enough of a repetitious beat to keep this act in the clubs."

Andy Kastanas from The Charlotte Observer wrote, "Not only does it borrow its sound from disco of the '70s, but it borrows one of its personalities. Disco diva Jocelyn Brown lends her vocal chords to R.S.F. to make for a rollicking good dance song." Alan Jones from Music Week's RM Dance Update declared it as "a Seventies-flavoured disco groove allowing Jocelyn plenty of opportunities to ad-lib, which she does in her usual paint-blistering manner." Johnny Dee from Smash Hits named it "another cracker" and "a brilliant pop record — funny catchy, you can do daft dances to it. The lyrics are great too — "Don't talk just kiss/Let your tongue fool around"."
