(Got 2) Give It Up, a cover version of Marvin Gaye’s track (titled Got To Give It Up) from his 1977 album Live At The London Palladium is the ninth track (sixth song) on the aborted third Madhouse album, 24. Unusually for Madhouse, this track features vocals, sung by Nona Gaye, daughter of the writer and original singer of the track, Marvin Gaye.

Basic tracking took place on 7 July 1993 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during a five-hour session that also produced Carnac (later renamed 17), Edward (later renamed Asswoop or Asswhuppin’ In A Trunk), Parlor Games, Rootie Kazootie and a mostly-instrumental version of Space, all of which were intended for a third Madhouse album, 24). The track was edited down to a bit over half its original length for the 1995 revised configuration of 24.

The album, and (Got 2) Give It Up, remain unreleased.

Marvin Gaye’s original long version of Got To Give It Up features the chant "Let’s dance, let’s shout, gettin’ funky what it’s all about!" (it also appears on the edited "Pt. 2"). This line was adapted by The Jacksons for their 1979 song Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground) and turned into "Let’s dance, let’s shout, shake your body down to the ground". Interestingly, both songs were performed live by Prince: Marvin Gaye’s original line was sung occasionally by Prince and the Revolution in concerts in 1986 (interpolation in America), and Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground) was performed in full (with Elisa Dease singing lead vocals) beginning in late 2009.
