Composition

"Gimme All (Ring My Bell)" is a dance-pop composition with electro influence that interpolates the recurrent elements of the 1979 song Ring My Bell written by Frederick Knight and performed by Anita Ward.

"Gimme All (Ring My Bell)" is not only about sexual expression. The singer states that the song reveals her passion about the one who can "ring her bell." In the first verse, she wants to captivate the object of her affection, but towards the end of the song she gets trapped in her own feelings. The bridge is the climax of her desire to possess him that borders on insanity. She says, "I put my blood and tears in this song, because it's the story about my insane passion and love."

Music video

The music video for "Gimme All (Ring My Bell)" was filmed in Los Angeles. With over 1 million views, the video shows a vampire love story that features the singer as a seductive vamp woman who captivates a guy with her spells and keeps him in a dungeon. [3]

In the beginning of the video, the singer whispers the words of passion into the guy's ears, gently touching his skin and his lips. Towards the end of the video, she hypnotizes the victim and bites his neck. In the last scene he turns into a vampire spirit, joining the group of male vampire spirits who had been seduced and bitten by the singer before.

The singer appears in several images throughout the video: as a rock star surrounded by pale spirits; a seductress in the elegant gown with vampire fangs; an insane furious woman trapped in the white tunnel. Eventually she demands "Gimme all you got!" and waves the magnificent red cloak to unveil her mystical power.

"Gimme All (Ring My Bell)" is a story about insane passion and love.
